212: The two holy sons of Dianxing Academy! Shen Tianxing's current reputation
“No, no! You can’t go!”
Shi Yuantu grabbed Shi Linglong, refusing to let her leave no matter what.
“Grandpa…”
“You are not allowed to go!”
“I am going to save him!”
“Even if we save him, you don’t have to go!”
“Then you agree?”
“I…”
After some pulling and tugging, Shi Yuantu’s eyes widened as he looked at Shi Linglong, who was full of hope.
For the first time in his life, he felt that the matter was too tricky, making his old and resilient heart feel a bit uncomfortable.
His granddaughter had truly grown up and found someone she liked!
Since childhood, when had Shi Linglong ever cared so much about someone?
There was no shortage of young talents in Dianxing Academy, and he even had two Saints among his disciples, yet Shi Linglong had them all wrapped around her finger. Now, his granddaughter was actually defying his wishes for an outsider.
She was too old to be kept at home!
“Brother Yuantu, it’s rare for Linglong to ask you for something. How can you bear to see her sad?”
Zhu Xingwu was still fanning the flames from the side, fearing the fire wasn’t burning hot enough, which made Shi Yuantu quite angry.
However, Shi Yuantu also understood that Zhu Xingwu seemed to be helping Shi Linglong, but in reality, he was also helping him.
With his granddaughter’s temper, if she truly made up her mind, no amount of his opposition would be useful.
If things went wrong, she might even get angry and run off to the Sea of Buried Demons alone, and that would be a real big trouble!
“Alright, alright!”
Shi Yuantu nodded helplessly, his Face stern, and said, “Grandpa agrees! Give him this Heavenly Phenomenon Realm demon core. I will let your Senior Brother Feng Wuliang and Ji Tiange go together, to prevent the Holy Heaven Demon Sect people from harming him.”
“Are you satisfied now?”
“Grandpa, you agreed? Thank you, Grandpa!”
Shi Linglong was overjoyed!
Her return this time was to save Shen Tianxing. With her Grandpa’s consent and her two Heavenly Phenomenon Realm Senior Brothers taking action, a mere Sea of Buried Demons wouldn’t cause too much trouble.
She could quickly find Shen Tianxing in the Sea of Buried Demons!
Dianxing Academy was, after all, the controller of the Northern Wilderness. Even if the Sea of Buried Demons was independent, it would still show some Face.
If they really couldn’t handle it, her Senior Brother wasn’t an idiot. At that time, she could just ask Grandpa to send more people to the Sea of Buried Demons!
“I agree, but I also have a condition. If you don’t agree, there’s no room for discussion on this matter!”
Shi Linglong was still rejoicing when Shi Yuantu’s words immediately quieted her down.
“No problem, Grandpa, just say it. I’ll agree to anything!”
How could she know her Grandpa’s thoughts?
Her mind had already drifted to the Sea of Buried Demons, wanting to see Shen Tianxing quickly.
“Grandpa only has one request.”
“Let them go save Shen Tianxing; you don’t need to go to the Sea of Buried Demons!”
“What? Grandpa, that won’t do!”
“It has to do, even if it doesn’t. You haven’t been back for three years. Can you bear to let Grandpa worry every day at home? Can you bear for your parents to not even see you before hearing that you’ve gone to the Sea of Buried Demons again?”
“This… I…”
Shi Linglong’s initially resistant Face showed a hint of melancholy.
She suddenly remembered that she had been away from Dianxing Academy for three years and hadn’t seen her Grandpa, father, or mother in three years.
All the beautiful times they had together in the past, in a daze, so much time had passed.
“Linglong, your Grandpa has loved you since childhood. You can’t hurt his heart. Your parents are also said to be returning, just to see you.”
“With Feng Wuliang and Ji Tiange taking action, you can rest assured and stay in the Academy.”
“By the time you see Shen Tianxing, he will definitely be out of danger.”
“Sometimes, being together every day isn’t necessarily a good thing; distance creates beauty.”
At this moment, Zhu Xingwu should not be called the Hall Master of the Martial Hall, but rather a matchmaker responsible for tying red strings.
If Zhu Xingwu’s opponents knew that the dignified Half-Step King Realm Hall Master of the Martial Hall enjoyed matchmaking in his spare time, they would probably laugh their heads off!
“Alright then, I’ll stay. Please have the two Senior Brothers depart quickly.”
Shi Linglong quickly understood.
She decided to stay and reunite with her family properly.
“Hahaha, that’s right!”
Shi Yuantu was overjoyed. Nothing made him happier than his granddaughter saying these words.
Wasn’t it just saving Shen Tianxing?
Considering his extraordinary talent and good potential, if he was saved, then so be it!
As long as his granddaughter was happy!
“Brother Yuantu, it seems your Golden Crystal Water-Repelling Beast was indeed caught at the right time today. Good fortune is at our doorstep, let’s stew it up for drinks!”
“Go away, go away. What does that have to do with you, old man?”
“Oh? Are you trying to burn the bridge after crossing it? Without my help, could you have handled Linglong?”
“Of course!”
…What happened in Dianxing Academy, of course, no one outside would know.
Even fewer people knew that the two Saints of Dianxing Academy’s Enforcement Hall and Martial Hall had quietly left the Academy and were heading towards the Sea of Buried Demons.
Bahai City was a first-rate major power in the Outer Sea of the Demon Burial Zone.
It was second only to the Two Islands, Five Sects, and Eight Cities!
The power of Bahai City belonged to the Deep Sea Jiao Clan!
Rumor had it that the Clan Chief was a master from a collateral branch of the Deep Sea Jiao Clan, had a close relationship with Queyue City, one of the Eight Cities, and also had some connections with the Deep Sea Jiao Clan.
As a prosperous major power in the Outer Sea, the number of Cultivators coming and going daily was as numerous as ox hair!
News from all sides of the Outer Sea also poured into Bahai City from all directions!
During this period, Bahai City was abuzz with a shocking piece of news!
In a certain restaurant.
“Have you heard? Half a month ago, Demon Wind City was massacred!”
“Your news is outdated. Not only Demon Wind City, but also Scorpio City, Blood Sword City, and Evil Domain were massacred! The most terrifying thing is that Beixing City, which is as famous as Bahai City, was also massacred three days ago!”
“Ah? I just came from Demon Wind City. So many cities were massacred in just half a month? What kind of power is it? Could it be… people from the Inner Sea?”
“That’s not it. I heard that the people who massacred these cities were three individuals. The ones who took action were a man and a woman among them. The man was exceptionally handsome, and the woman was peerlessly beautiful, with extremely high cultivation!”
“As soon as they appeared, they would definitely massacre an entire city of Cultivators. Even figures like the City Lord of Beixing City were not their opponents. The Outer Sea is now abuzz with rumors that someone among that man and woman has reached the Peak of the Soul Palace!”
“Hiss!!! A master at the Peak of the Soul Palace, why would they go around massacring cities? Wouldn’t doing so attract the masters of the Two Islands, Five Sects, and Eight Cities to sanction them? Their guts are too big!”
“Big guts? That also requires strength. They just have that strength!”
“Now, all forces in the Outer Sea are in self-preservation. Those three people are famous now. The man is called Shen Tianxing, and the women are Liu Xianyun and Liu Yueying. The massacre of Ten Thousand Demon City half a month ago was also done by them!”
“Now I hear that Queyue City, one of the Eight Cities, has already taken notice of them!”
“Noticed by Queyue City? Then their days of arrogance are over!”
In a restaurant in Bahai City, a group of Cultivators discussed the major events that had occurred in the Outer Sea over the past half month.
Unbeknownst to them, Shen Tianxing’s great name was already known to everyone in the Outer Sea of the Sea of Buried Demons!
