211: Reaching the Divine Profound Realm in just a few months? Do you think I'm that easy to fool?!
"Oh, little girl, slow down!"
Shi Yuantu watched his granddaughter run towards him and quickly went to meet her, afraid she would fall while running.
Just like when she was a child.
Zhu Xingwu, who was beside him, pouted, but it was nothing new to him. Who in the entire Dianxing Academy didn't know that Shi Yuantu was a slave to his granddaughter?
Just now he was furious, but in front of Shi Linglong, he was like an angry tiger meeting its nemesis.
"Grandpa! Grandpa Zhu!"
Shi Linglong stood gracefully in front of Shi Yuantu and Zhu Xingwu, carrying her great sword, and sweetly called out.
Three years had passed since she left home; the half-grown child had now matured!
"Linglong, you've really grown up. The Third Level of the Shen Xuan Realm, that's truly impressive!"
Zhu Xingwu said with a chuckle.
Shi Yuantu also scrutinized her up and down. Seeing that Shi Linglong, apart from being a bit travel-worn from her long journey back, was full of energy and spirit, he was very pleased.
"It's good that you're back!"
"Did you miss Grandpa?"
Shi Linglong nodded and said, "I did. That's why as soon as I returned, I came to see Grandpa first."
"Mm, good!"
Shi Yuantu looked only fifty or sixty years old, but his actual age was already several hundred.
Yet, in front of Shi Linglong, he was like a child.
"Come, come, sit down, sit down."
"Linglong, you've returned at just the right time. Your Grandpa hunted a Heavenly Phenomenon Realm Vicious Beast today, so you're in for a treat!"
Zhu Xingwu pointed to the enormous golden Vicious Beast not far away and said with a smile.
Shi Yuantu's old face flushed, and he glared at him.
Shi Linglong glanced at the giant Vicious Beast, and a look of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Golden Crystal Water-Evading Beast!"
The Heavenly Phenomenon Realm Golden Crystal Water-Evading Beast possessed an incredibly strong Physical Body; even Human Race powerhouses of the same Realm would find it difficult to kill it.
Such a Vicious Beast was valuable all over!
Its demonic core contained the essence of its entire being!
Its vital blood was an excellent ingredient for refining Medicinal Pills, and the scales on its body could be forged into treasures like weapons and armor.
Its value was immeasurable!
What Shi Linglong valued most was precisely the demonic core of the Golden Crystal Water-Evading Beast!
With this demonic core, Shen Tianxing's Breakthrough to the Half-step Heavenly Phenomenon Realm would be twice as effective!
"Grandpa, I want its demonic core. Give it to me."
Shi Linglong acted on her thoughts, unceremoniously stating her desire.
If it were anyone else, they wouldn't dare speak to him like that.
Only Shi Linglong dared!
"What do you want it for?"
Shi Yuantu was puzzled; a mere demonic core was nothing, and he had no use for it anyway.
But for this girl to suddenly ask for this demonic core as soon as she returned, this matter...
"Linglong, you want the demonic core of this Golden Crystal Water-Evading Beast to save your beloved, don't you?"
Zhu Xingwu, standing by, laughed and exposed her thoughts.
Beloved?
Upon hearing this, Shen Tianxing's face flashed through Shi Linglong's mind, and her face immediately turned red.
"Grandpa Zhu, what are you talking about?"
"There's no... there's no beloved!"
This was a classic case of protesting too much!
How could Shi Yuantu, who held the position of Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall, be a brainless martial artist?
He understood immediately.
It was over... his family's little cabbage was about to be taken by a pig!
"No beloved? Then who is that young man named Shen Tianxing?"
"Oh, I heard he went to the Outer Sea of the Sea of Buried Demons. That place is a gathering of dangerous individuals, with several Heavenly Phenomenon Realm experts. It's not easy to survive there!"
Zhu Xingwu continued, saying.
He was determined to infuriate Shi Yuantu today.
"Alright, alright, you're just showing off!"
"If that kid dies, he dies. What does it have to do with our Linglong!"
Shi Yuantu looked impatient, almost about to chase the old fellow away.
"Grandpa!!"
Before Zhu Xingwu could speak, Shi Linglong, who was beside them, was displeased.
Why had she returned?
Wasn't it to ask Grandpa for help with Shen Tianxing?
It seemed Grandpa was a bit unwilling!
This wouldn't do!
"Grandpa, you are a Half-step Heaven and Earth King Realm!
"You must have a way to help Shen Tianxing. He was afflicted with the Blood Soul Demonic Seal of the Holy Heaven Demon Sect. You must have a way, right!"
Half-step Heaven and Earth King Realm!
Shi Yuantu's Cultivation was terrifyingly strong!
A powerhouse like him, who had fought against the Holy Heaven Demon Sect for many years, must surely understand the Blood Soul Demonic Seal very well!
With the demonic core of a Heavenly Phenomenon Realm Vicious Beast, plus her Grandpa's guidance, Shen Tianxing would be saved!
"No, absolutely not!"
"A mere Divine Profound Realm boy is not worthy of my girl!"
"This old man will not get involved, no matter what."
Shi Yuantu shook his head repeatedly, refusing without hesitation.
Are you kidding me?
His little princess, whom he held carefully for fear of dropping and cherished for fear of melting, how could she be with a wild boy from the countryside?
Was that boy even worthy?
"Grandpa!"
"What are you saying? Shen Tianxing and I are just very good friends."
"He helped me a lot, and his talent is exceptionally high. He's already in the Divine Profound Realm at only sixteen years old. His future achievements will definitely be extraordinary!"
"He just lacks time; otherwise, with his talent, he could even break the Blood Soul Demonic Seal himself!"
Shi Linglong didn't know why she was saying all this, she just spoke her mind.
She thought her Grandpa looked down on Shen Tianxing's background.
In reality, she was completely wrong!
"Hahahaha..."
Zhu Xingwu, who was nearby, suddenly burst into laughter, causing Shi Yuantu to stare at him.
"You old fellow, what are you laughing at?"
Shi Yuantu looked displeased.
Zhu Xingwu, however, said, "Brother Yuantu, this time you've truly misjudged. This Shen Tianxing is no ordinary person."
"News has come that he is exceptionally talented. Although he is only sixteen, it only took him a few months to Cultivate to the Divine Profound Realm. Does such talent not even enter your Dharma Eye?"
"Then your standards are far too high!"
"Cultivate to Divine Profound in a few months? Do you think I'm that easy to fool?!"
Shi Yuantu looked disbelieving.
The Disciples of Dianxing Academy were all exceptionally talented individuals, each one a Prodigy chosen from tens of thousands.
Even a Saint would need to be seventeen or eighteen to reach this Realm, let alone Shen Tianxing, who came from a small place?
If he truly possessed such talent, it would be quite terrifying!
"Let me tell you another piece of news: our old adversary, the Holy Heaven Demon Sect, also suffered a great loss at his hands!"
"That old fellow Chou Nian lost a large amount of resources and has already sent people to the Sea of Buried Demons to see if they can find any trace of Shen Tianxing."
"I think you should send people to check as soon as possible, otherwise, Linglong might not forgive you."
This news was naturally all true.
Zhu Xingwu managed the Martial Hall, and all external news was relayed back by Disciples, so it couldn't be wrong.
"The Holy Heaven Demon Sect is also looking for him?"
"No! I'm going to the Sea of Buried Demons to find him!"
With news from the Martial Hall, finding Shen Tianxing was only a matter of time, especially with the Holy Heaven Demon Sect leading the way?
Shi Linglong was already impatient to go to the Sea of Buried Demons to find him.
This greatly worried Shi Yuantu who was beside her!
