Another man, who looked to be in his forties, had a refined appearance and a friendly smile on his face. He seed like a person with a good temperant. When he noticed Chu Mo glancing at him, he returned a friendly nod.
Chu Mo looked at Lu Tianyue: "Tianyue, who are these two?"
"Are you Lu Tianming?" Before Lu Tianyue could respond, a thin-looking old man raised his chin arrogantly and asked Chu Mo.
"Haha, Brother Tianming, let introduce you..." Lu Tianyue quickly interjected to divert the conversation. Otherwise, a conflict might spark off without any further ado.
She deed herself to know Chu Mo's temperant reasonably well. He doesn't react well to brusque attitudes. The stronger the deanor, the more serious the possible consequences.
Didn't the personal disciples of the Blood Demon Sect, who were in the Gold Core stage, die in this way? If they hadn't enraged Chu Mo to the point of invoking the Heavenly Tribulation, these disciples wouldn't have died so pitifully.
Lu Tianyue first looked at the middle-aged man in his forties and said to Chu Mo, "This is Wu Hui, the sub-hall master of Lingshui Hall."
Lu Tianyue slightly smiled, "Junior Master Wu Hui has reached the Primordial Infant realm. He's a role model for us, the younger generation!"
Chu Mo bowed towards Wu Hui, "Greetings, Predecessor Wu Hui."
Wu Hui nodded at Chu Mo with a smile, "Young man, you are impressive!"
"This is the Sixth Elder of our Lingdong Mountain, whose Taoist title is Qing Lingzi and is my junior master." Lu Tianyue glanced at the Qing Lingzi and continued, "The Sixth Elder has reached the pinnacle of the Gold Core stage and is on the verge of stepping into the Primordial Infant realm! He holds a very high position in the Lingdong mountain."
Qing Lingzi sneered, his look radiating impatience as he glanced briefly at Lu Tianyue without uttering a word.
Lu Tianyue chose to ignore Qing Lingzi's response. Although the Sixth Elder is usually sowhat abrasive, he has never been this annoying. She wondered what happened this ti. Had he failed to confront the Primordial Infant realm? Lu Tianyue pondered maliciously.
Perhaps fearing that Lu Yifeng might not have explained everything to Chu Mo, Lu Tianyue took the liberty of offering so additional explanations. She said to Chu Mo, "Junior Master Qing Lingzi happened to et Junior Master Wu Hui on the road; thus, Junior Master Wu Hui ca here to show concern for our family."
While ntioning "our family," Lu Tianyue appeared entirely relaxed, without the slightest discomfort.
At the sa ti, Lu Tianyue also subtly hinted to Chu Mo that the deputy hall master from Lingshui Hall has nothing to do with this matter.
Chu Mo seed to grasp the underlying ssage.
He was now confident that this Qing Lingzi... was an imposter!
Others might not be aware of Qing Lingzi's cultivation level, but Lu Tianyue should know!
She would never describe a Daoist priest in the mid-stage Primordial Infant as a Daoist priest in the pinnacle of Golden Core unless Lu Tianyue is conniving with the people from Blood Demon Sect to deceive him. But is that possible?
At this mont, Qing Lingzi, with an impatient face, said, "Enough. Now that everyone is here, Tianyue, let's get on with it."
Lu Tianyue smiled awkwardly.
At this mont, the deputy hall master from Lingshui Hall said calmly, "Junior Brother Qing Lingzi, aren't you a bit too hasty? I don't even know who this young man is."
Qing Lingzi raised an eyebrow, "Elder Brother Wu Hui doesn't know who he is? Isn't he the one we've been talking about for so long? The mysterious high-level master suddenly turned up from the Lu family, the hero who killed five personal disciples of the Blood Demon Sect... tsk tsk, such a capable young man, Elder Brother Wu Hui must like him very much, right?"
Chu Mo noticed that when Qing Lingzi ntioned the Blood Demon Sect, even though he appeared to be quite smooth and natural, showing no hesitation, a deep-seated hatred flashed in his eyes.
A person can control their facial expressions, but it's challenging to entirely cover up changes in one's eyes.
Wu Hui glanced at Qing Lingzi, his face exposing a hint of displeasure.
There is no denying the affinity between the three spiritual sects, but by now, they generally pursued their own paths.
Wu Hui had co to Jinxiu City this ti intending to get a handle on the situation. He ran into Qing Lingzi unexpectedly and ca here together with him. His relations with Qing Lingzi could rely be described as an acquaintance; they were not close by any ans.
Therefore, when Qing Lingzi spoke provocatively, Wu Hui felt displeased in his heart. He thought to himself, who does this small Golden Core stage elder think he is acting big in front of , the Deputy Hall Master?
"The Blood Demon Sect, huh, I hear they are potent. Soone who can kill five of their personal disciples indeed deserves to be called a hero!" Wu Hui calmly responded, making Qing Lingzi uncomfortable.
The word 'hero' had entirely different connotations in their mouths!
In the case of Qing Lingzi, it was a sarcasm; whereas for Wu Hui... it was admiration.
Being aware of the growing tension in the air, Lu Tianyue swiftly intervened. "Junior Master Qing Lingzi, Junior Master Wu Hui, this is Lu Tianming, who grew up with Tianqi and . He is a mber of my Lu family! And I am also a mber of Lu family, so I will never sever ties with him. Everything he did was to help our Lu family!"
Concerned that Qing Lingzi might deny her the opportunity to express herself, Lu Tianyue took advantage of the introduction of Chu Mo's identity to clearly state her position.
Qing Lingzi's face instantly turned ugly. He slapped the table next to him hard, causing all the teacups and bowls on it to fall to the floor with a clatter. "Insolent! Are you ignoring the words of the head of the sect now?"
He then angrily got up and walked towards Chu Mo while ranting, "You little brat, it's all because of you! If you hadn't killed five disciples of the Blood Demon Sect, would they have shifted their pressure over to our Lingdong Mountain? If it weren't for you ..."
As Qing Lingzi spoke, he approached Chu Mo with a nacing look, railing furiously as if detesting Chu Mo to the extre.
Lu Tianyue on the side stared in shock. She still didn't understand why the Sixth Elder hated Chu Mo so much. After all, this matter hardly affected the Lingdong Mountain... Why such profound hatred?
Lu Tianqi was also dumbfounded. From beginning to end, she only exchanged a greeting with "Lu Tianming" and the rest of the ti, she just sat there dumbfounded.
As for Wu Hui, the deputy hall-master of Lingshui Hall, he was frowning, thinking to himself, 'Why is Lingdong Mountain going backwards? Recruiting a Golden Core stage cultivator as an elder might be alright, but how co he's an idiot?
Is the person before him... an idiot?
Clearly not!
He stood in front of Chu Mo, his face turned savage, spitting words out, and then... Suddenly!
A terrifying aura of the Primordial Infant realm surged towards Chu Mo like a torrent.
And then he directly struck, a firm palm aid at Chu Mo's head!
Primordial Infant!
Full-force strike!
