Chapter 242 An Old Acquaintance

After the land condition in Longcheng City changed, there were mountains, dense forests, and fierce beasts everywhere outside the city.

In recent days, Longcheng City was bustling with people. A large number of warriors swarmed into the city, and the hotels were full of people.

Chu Xun and his companions searched several inns but failed to find a room to rest.

“It looks like we’ll have to sleep on the streets tonight,” Chu Xun said with a bitter smile.

After thinking about it carefully, he realized that he had lived a comfortable life since he returned to the earth. When he was in the other world, it was common for him to eat and sleep in the wild.

“Master, there’s a hotel ahead. Please take a rest here, and I’ll go to the hotel to check if there are empty rooms,” Yan Chong said.

Chu Xun replied, “Let’s go together.”

Aegean Hotel was one of the best hotels in Longcheng City.

The group of people saw the riot at the door of the hotel from a long distance. Some warriors were fighting there. After the mutation of the earth, this kind of thing was common to see.

“They’re probably fighting for empty rooms,” Lei Bao mumbled.

At the door of the hotel they just left, they saw some people fighting for empty rooms as well.

...

Yan Yi looked extremely grim as he glared at a group of people in front of him, the corner of his mouth stained with blood.

“You guys from the Tianlong Fort push us too hard!”

This group of people had a fierce and terrifying aura, and there was a dozen of them, three of whom were first-grade Human Kings.

A skinny old man whose aura was extremely horrible said disdainfully with a grim look in his eyes, “Bastards, get out of here. Otherwise, I’ll kill you.”

His companions showed a mocking expression, and they didn’t take Yan Yi and his fellows seriously at all.

“Don’t you think that you’re being too unreasonable? We came ahead of you, so why should we give the rooms that we wanted to book to you?” a girl said angrily. She wore black leather coats and pants and heavy dark makeup, looking like a bad girl.

“Why? Because we’re from the Tianlong Fort.” the old man squinted at Yan Yi with an expression of disdain and continued, “You’re just a half Human King, yet you still dared to come here to try your luck. I think you’re courting death, aren’t you?”

Among the people from the Tianlong Fort, there was a young man who was a fifth-grade Grandmaster. He stared at the girl in black with a frivolous expression on his pale face and said, “Beauty, I can give you a room as long as you’re willing to share the bed with me. I don’t mind doing you a favor.”

“How shameless!” Yan Yi flew into a rage. His Internal Breath surged as he raised his hand and charged at the young man.

The young man’s expression changed slightly, and he hurried to stand in the crowd.

“Guys of the Rock Sect, it looks like you want your sect to be destroyed.” the old man growled, emitting a frightening aura. He punched forward from a distance, and Yan Yi was sent flying backward a hundred meters away.

“Get rid of them. I don’t want to see them!” the old man looked disdainful, tossed his hand, and went into the hotel.

A half Human King rushed out, his Internal Breath surging wildly. His fists were very fierce. Except for Yan Yi, the sect master of the Rock Sect, no one else could be his match.

When a half Human King fought a Grandmaster, he could kill him easily.

Swoosh!

A ray of sharp Sword Qi burst out, tearing through the air with sizzling sounds.

This sword move was so impressive that even the people of the Tianlong Fort, who were about to enter the hotel, could not help but stop and look back.

The half Human King let out a soft cry of surprise. He moved more than ten meters away quickly to dodge the attack.

Puff!

In front of the hotel, the heads of two domineering stone lions over three meters tall were cut off by the Sword Qi.

“Take him down,” the old man shouted.

“Yes,” the half Human King who had dodged the attack responded. The ground under his feet exploded as he charged at the old man who made the sword move.

Swoosh!

The elder of the Rock Sect held the sword in his hand and slashed down, Sword Qi spreading over and shooting toward the half Human King.

The Sword Qi was very fierce. Besides, the Grandmaster had reached the ninth grade. Thus, the half Human King had a sense of danger and rolled in the air to dodge the attack.

“Get out of the way,” the old man of the Tianlong Fort shouted angrily. He struck out a palm from a distance, and his terrifying Internal Breath swept away like a chain, causing the Grandmaster of the Rock Sect to spit out a big mouthful of blood and fell down.

If the old man hadn’t deliberately avoided attacking his vital parts, the Grandmaster would have been turned into a bloody mist.

“Presbyter Lei...” The girl in black helped Yan Yi up and let out a cry of surprise.

The old man stretched out his hand and withdrew it slowly, rolling up the rock on the ground. Even Presbyter Lei was sucked into the force.

“Tell me, where did you learn this sword technique from?” the old man asked, clutching the Grandmaster’s neck with one hand.

Presbyter Lei’s face was pale, and he looked dispirited. He sneered and replied, “Even if I tell you, you won’t dare to go there.”

The old man showed a look of interest on his gloomy face and said, “Tell me. I really want to know if there is a place in the world that I can’t go.”

“Qianlong Mountain, Mr. Chu’s mansion,” Presbyter Lei replied with a sneer.

Everyone in the Martial Tao World knew that Chu Xun had killed a Human King on the Qianlong Mountain, which scared Wu Ming, an elder of the Tianlong Fort, to escape in a panic.

On hearing the words, an old man in a black robe among the people from the Tianlong Fort suddenly gritted his teeth, and his face darkened. He was no other than Wu Ming.

Back then, he was scared by Chu Xun so much that he left his disciples behind and fled in a hurry. This made him a laughingstock in the whole Martial Tao World and a shame for him in his life.

“Humph, I didn’t feel well at that time, so Chu Xun took advantage of me. If I meet him again, I will cut off his head,” Wu Ming said in a chilling tone.

“Bah, if you really meet Chu Xun again, don’t be scared out of your wits.” Yan Yi spat out a mouthful of blood.

“You’re courting death.” Wu Ming bristled with anger. His terrifying aura spread over the place, causing wild winds in the air. “If he really dares to come here, I’ll tear him into pieces.”

“Really?” A faint voice drifted over, but it sounded like a clap of thunder in everyone’s ears.

“Who is it?” Wu Min felt like being struck by lightning, and his hair stood on end. He was so familiar with the voice that he couldn’t forget it even in his dreams.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice.

Just as everyone was guessing the identities of Chu Xun and his companions, Wu Ming, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, almost jumped up and cried out involuntarily, “Chu... Chu Xun.”

“Is he Chu Xun?”

The crowd split up quickly to give way to him.

Everyone in the Martial Tao World knew the title, Devil Chu from Hell.

Wu Ming’s pupils dilated, and his forehead was covered in a cold sweat. He was uneasy, and his muscles were tense.

At the foot of the Qianlong Mountain, he and Ge Yingtian joined hands to fight Chu Xun. However, Chu Xun crushed Ge Yingtian with a golden stick. This became Wu Ming’s nightmare, and every time he thought of it, he would be extremely frightened.

Thinking of what he had said just now, he wanted to cry. Wu Ming felt that he was the Human King with the most grievance in the world.

“Are you Devil Chu from Hell?” The old man, who had defeated Presbyter Lei, stared at Chu Xun with an icy look in his eyes and asked.

Chu Xun looked at him with indifferent eyes and said, “Let him go. If you want this sword technique, I can give it to you.”

After that, he ignored the old man.

“Mr. Yan.” Chu Xun walked up to him and flicked his finger. A gush of Immortal Qi went into Yan Yi’s body to help him cure his injury.

Yan Yi had protected his parents in Xuanji Mountain, so Chu Xun would never forget his kindness.

Yan Yi’s eyes were full of complex emotions. The Immortal Qi with a strong vitality was rapidly relieving his injury.

“We haven’t seen each other for more than a decade, but Immortal Chu, you’re still as charming as before.” Back then, Chu Xun destroyed the Heaven Tao Sect alone and almost smashed the Xuanji Mountain.

People all thought that he had died, but they never thought that after more than ten years, he returned with a powerful aura and killed several Human Kings in succession, which was really cruel.

“Don’t be so polite, Mr. Yan. You can just call me Chu Xun. I will never forget how you protected my parents, and I owe you a favor.” After that, Chu Xun bowed to Yan Yi deeply.

At that time, he almost got killed, and fortunately, Emperor Ao saved him. In the blink of an eye, a dozen years had passed, and he had not been able to say thanks to Yan Yi until now.

Yan Yi was not a pretentious man. He immediately nodded with a smile and called him Chu Xun.

The girl in black stared blankly at Chu Xun’s side face. After a long time, she came to herself and whispered, “It’s been a while since we last met.”

Chu Xun chuckled and replied, “Yes, and you look the same as before.”

The girl in black lowered her head and said inwardly, “I’m afraid that you won’t recognize me if I change my look.”

Nevertheless, she also knew that Chu Xun’s heart had probably gone with Hua Qingwu.

Chu Xun did not notice the strange look on the girl’s face. “How did you end up having a fight with the Tianlong Fort?” he asked.

Yan Yi smiled bitterly and told him what had happened.

It turned out that they were indeed fighting for rooms in the hotel. There were only a few empty rooms, and the people from the Tianlong Fort were so domineering that they wanted to seize the rooms from them.

Yan Yi said with a bitter smile, “In fact, it’s a small matter. The point is that the Tianlong Fort has been too domineering.”

“I see,” Chu Xun said. Right now, the law on the earth didn’t have much binding force, and the one with power could be dominant.

“Leave it to me.” Chu Xun stood up. Seeing that the old man was still grasping Presbyter Lei tightly, he raised his eyebrows and said, “I told you to let him go, didn’t you hear me?”

The old man from the Tianlong Fort looked sullen, and he tightened his grip slightly, which caused Presbyter Lei’s eyes to pop out.

“Chu Xun, you’d better consider the situation carefully. If you dare to shout at me so disrespectfully again, I’ll break his neck immediately.”

“Who are you?” Chu Xun narrowed his eyes.

“Chai Yuan, the Second Presbyter of the Tianlong Fort,” the old man said proudly.

“Chai Yuan, if you kill him, I’ll exterminate the entire Tianlong Fort.” Chu Xun’s eyes were clear and chilling.

“Ahh...” All of a sudden, a terrified scream rang out.

Everyone was shocked and looked in the direction of the sound. They saw a figure retreating quickly while carrying a man.

The figure turned out to be Lei Bao, and the man he was carrying was the young man who had made a pass at the girl in black.

After Chu Xun appeared, Wu Ming was scared out of his wits, while others were attracted by the conversation between Chu Xun and Chai Yuan.

Lei Bao was a rough but scrupulous man. He approached the young man secretly and caught him at a lightning speed.

“Presbyter Chai, save me.” The young man screamed out of fear.

Seeing that the young man was captured, Chai Yuan changed his expression suddenly. The young man was the son of the First Presbyter of their sect. This time, this young man followed them to the outside to train himself. Thus, he must keep him safe.

“Chu Xun, let him go.” Although Chai Yuan tried to look calm, his hasty tone showed that he was in a panic.

Chu Xun’s expression was full of mockery.

Chai Yuan’s face turned extremely grim. Without saying a word, he loosened his grip on Presbyter Lei’s neck.

He didn’t dare to gamble because he had heard of Chu Xun’s character a little.

“Si... Sir, can you let me go?” The young man said with a flattering smile.

He was very smart and knew when to behave humbly.

Lei Bao was surprised upon hearing the words. “This young man seemed to be frivolous, but he knew when to yield. He is not simple.”

He looked at Chu Xun for advice.

“Destroy his cultivation,” Chu Xun said.

“How dare you...” Chai Yuan was shocked.

“Ahh...” The young man let out a shrill scream.

Lei Bao destroyed his Dantian without hesitation.

“You want to die?” At Chu Xun’s words, the young man stopped screaming right away. His face twisted in pain, and his whole body trembled, but he didn’t dare to make any sound.

He had made a pass at the girl in black, so Chu Xun had been very kind to only destroy his cultivation instead of killing him.

“I’ll give him back to you.” Lei Bao threw the young man at Chai Yuan.

Chai Yuan caught the young man and immediately checked on him. A moment later, there was a fierce look in his eyes.

“Chu Xun, you will pay the price with your blood and suffer endless pain for what you’ve done. You will be put on the raging fire by the First Presbyter for a hundred years, so that you’ll suffer unbearable pain...” Chai Yuan said in a chilling tone, which made people feel creepy.
