Chapter 689 Threat? Who is looking for death? old man smoking
"Okay, Zhao Xuansu, are you finished?"
Yu Ling said with some displeasure: "Jin Zhong has never offended you, why do you always have trouble with him?"
"Miss, I didn't!"
Zhao Xuansu hurriedly said: "I'm just worried, Miss, that you will be taken advantage of by bad people."
"Humph."
Yu Ling said angrily: "In my opinion, you just can't see that I and Jin Zhong are close, and you always want to get in the way."
"Okay, it's none of your business here. Go back and do your own thing. Don't follow me anymore."
"But...this kid..."
"No more!"
"I'm very annoyed now and don't want to see you!"
Zhao Xuansu had never been treated so harshly by Yu Ling. A trace of anger flashed in his eyes and his chest heaved violently.
Seeing this scene, the swordsman seemed to be quite distressed, and hurriedly walked over and persuaded: "Mr. Xuansu, the lady is just in a bad mood, don't take it to heart."
"Whenever she becomes happy, Shi Jian will let you know."
"Ok!"
"Thank you so much, Miss Swordsman!"
As the son of a large family, Zhao Xuansu had some status in the city, and he quickly calmed down.
He responded gracefully to Shi Jian, and then his eyes fell on Zhong Changsheng.
"Boy, if you are a man, don't rely on women."
"Otherwise, even if you enter Shaoyang Academy, I will find ten thousand ways to make you walk around without food!"
"Haha, I forgot to tell you that my Zhao family has many children in Shaoyang Academy!"
Zhong Changsheng frowned and his tone became cold.
"So, are you threatening me?"
Zhao Xuansu suddenly felt a bone-chilling breath envelope him.
His feet unconsciously took two steps back.
Zhong Changsheng's cold gaze actually gave him a feeling of panic for a moment.
Although this emotion quickly dissipated, Zhao Xuansu was still very angry.
If you think about it carefully, this kid is just an outsider from the Qingyun Domain, and his cultivation level doesn't look very high.
As the son of the Zhao family in Shaoyang City, he is far from comparable to the boy in front of him, regardless of his cultivation or family status.
At that moment, he felt confident.
"I threatened you, so what?"
"hehe."
Zhong Changsheng grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth, but there was no hint of smile in his dark eyes.
"No way."
"However, over the years, people who have threatened me are not doing well now."
For Zhong Changsheng, these words were quite restrained.
In fact, most of the people who had threatened him over the years were dead.
However, Zhao Xuansu was still angered.
"Haha, boy, your tone is quite loud!"
"I want to see how much you can do to make Zhao Xuansu's life miserable!"
"Hehe, let's wait and see!"
Seeing Zhong Changsheng confronting Zhao Xuansu tit for tat, showing no timidity at all, a strange color flashed in Yu Ling's watery eyes.
She admired Zhong Changsheng's neither humble nor arrogant attitude even more.
"hehe!"
"Jin Zhong, you don't have to be afraid of him."
With her jade feather stuck to her waist, she didn't have the restraint of the eldest lady of the city lord's palace at all, but instead had the ruffian air of a gangster.
"With me protecting you, the Zhao family won't dare to do anything wrong."
"Thank you so much, fellow Taoist Yu Ling."
Zhong Changsheng smiled and said, "However, I can handle my own affairs by myself."
"If I really rely on you, fellow Taoist, for everything, wouldn't I make that fool laugh?"
"I understand fellow Taoist's wishes. As for getting started, I think I'd better take the 'Seven Shaoyang Examinations'!"
Yu Ling was a smart woman, so she didn't force anything at the moment. She could see the incomparable confidence in Zhong Changsheng's eyes.
Since the other party is confident that she can pass the assessment, she naturally doesn't need to do anything extra.
After all, relying on your own connections to enter Shaoyang Academy will indeed attract some criticism and gossip.
If Zhong Changsheng could enter Shaoyang Academy on his own strength, he would naturally be able to silence everyone.
After all, the difficulty of Shaoyang Seventh Examination is obvious to all in Shaoyang City.
Most people who went to the Imperial Academy barely passed the first three of the seven Shaoyang exams.
If Zhong Changsheng could pass the five exams and join the Academy, he would surpass 90% of the students in the Academy.
When he fell, naturally no one dared to underestimate him.
For Zhong Changsheng, he also had his own ideas when he chose to take the exam to enter the academy.
Originally, if there was no interference from Zhao Xuansu, he could naturally keep a low profile when he entered the academy through Yu Ling's recommendation.
But, now, Zhao Xuansu is clearly eyeing him.
If he still used Yu Ling's relationship to enter the academy, he would inevitably be used to make a fuss by Zhao Xuansu.
At that time, not only Zhao Xuansu, but also other students and teachers in the academy will look down on him because of this.
But if you want to enter the academy and understand the path of cultivation after reaching the human realm, it will not be easy.
In contrast, if you pass the Five Shaoyang Examinations, you can legitimately join the academy, and with your talents, you will gain the respect of many students and the love of your husband.
When the time comes, he will stand on the commanding heights of morality. If Zhao Xuansu comes to cause trouble, it is because he is jealous and cannot tolerate geniuses.
In this way, it would be relatively easy for him to gain access to the secrets of high-level martial arts.
Therefore, although taking the assessment was more troublesome, Zhong Changsheng finally decided to rely on himself.
"OK."
"Now that you have decided, I will help you inform the gentlemen."
"Jinzhong, go and teleport to the west gate of the academy now. The gentlemen and I will be there in a quarter of an hour."
"Okay, then I'll trouble Taoist Yu Ling."
Zhong Changsheng cupped his hands and turned back to the teleportation array. There was a flash of light on the array, and not long after, Zhong Changsheng appeared at the west gate of the academy.
Walking to the west gate of the academy, an old man wearing linen clothes and bare feet was holding a pipe, leaning against the stone lion outside the gate, basking in the sun and smoking.
Just as Zhong Changsheng was about to go in, the old man suddenly spoke.
"Boy, I'm almost out of tobacco. How about you give me some?"
Zhong Changsheng turned to look at the old man.
The opponent's attribute panel pops up directly.
[Name: Guan Shanyue]
[Cause and Effect: Three Wheels of the Golden Moon]
[Cultivation: Ninth Level of Human Realm]
Zhong Changsheng raised his eyebrows. This old man was pretending to be a pig and trying to eat the tiger.
In other words, the Xuanhuo Emperor, the strongest in the entire Xuanhuo Domain, is only at the ninth level of the Human Realm.
The old man's cultivation was clearly the same as his.
Such a powerful person is enough to rule a large and rich area under Emperor Changjun. However, at the moment, this old man is leaning outside the door to bask in the sun in ragged clothes, which really makes Zhong Changsheng a little irritated.
