Chapter 388: Testing

Chapter 388 Testing After watching You Mu leave, Xu Anchang looked around and became worried again. One is that he is worried that You Mu will fail. If he fails, the consequences can be imagined, and he will be forced into a desperate situation. In fact, it is safer for two people to go together, but he must keep someone here. Secondly, I wondered if I was too impulsive. After all, I had not yet confirmed whether there were any extraordinary things here. What if it was all empty? However, there was no point in regretting it. In fact, when he made the decision just now, he knew very clearly that it was an impulsive decision. But when they learned that the people here were vulnerable, the heart-pounding feeling was difficult for outsiders to empathize with. You know, many legends ended here. To be controlled by others for a lifetime, or to become a superior person overnight, this is a thrilling once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Even if it means suffering some hardships for it, it is worth it. Being controlled by others for a long time is also a kind of suffering. Otherwise, why would he take the risk to come to the Divine Fire Realm? He didn't know how long he had been worried about this, but when Shi Chun came out, he didn't notice her until he heard footsteps approaching. Then he came to his senses and looked back. Shi Chun, who came up from the cave entrance, looked around and found that one person was missing. He asked in surprise, "Where is You Mu?" Xu Anchang was also a little surprised that he was the only one out, and quickly explained, "I was worried that Li Hongjiu's group would come again, so I asked him to check around." This positive attitude surprised Shi Chun a little, because the other party's enthusiasm seemed to have never reached this level before. For example, when Tie Senlin was looking for the sacred fire, he had always opposed him coming in. Especially if he let You Mu go to check it out alone without telling anyone, if something goes wrong, there might not even be anyone to report it.

With his alertness, any abnormality would make him alert. However, he didn't know that Li Hongjiu had been taught a lesson by the terrifying existence, so he could understand Xu Anchang's behavior. After all, Li Hongjiu was very fierce and had shown before that he was not afraid of this place. It was possible that if he couldn't find his master, he would come here to look for him again. It was normal for Xu Anchang to be more careful for his own safety. Of course, I still feel that something is wrong. Could it be that this guy hasn't guessed who are in this tower? With these people around, why should he be afraid of Li Hongjiu? Anyway, the idea that something was wrong remained in his mind. However, this can be put aside for now. He didn't bring Xu and You here to play, but to ask them to do something. Although one of them is gone, there is still one left, who can be used for support. He tilted his head slightly to signal, and took Xu Anchang a little further away from the cave entrance, and then whispered, "I will arrange a sparring match later, and you need to act accordingly." "Discuss?" Xu Anchang was at a loss. "What do you mean by sparring? With whom?" Shi Chun: "There are nine floors in this tower. From the eldest master to the ninth master, each of them is guarding a floor. You can find whoever is suitable and compete with whomever you meet. You just act according to the situation." Xu Anchang's eyes widened, and he asked in surprise, "Why are we sparring with them?" Shi Chun clicked his tongue and said, "Just do as I say." He brought two people here just to let them do this. He wanted to use various methods to test the reason why they didn't dare to take action against Li Hongjiu. What he wanted to test most was naturally the strength. For such a dangerous behavior, he would naturally let the worthless subordinates do it. Did he really want to let himself, the boss, take the risk? When he brought the two people down there before, he wanted to find an opportunity to try it out, but the old man acted like a madman and drove them out as soon as he saw them, leaving him without any chance to talk. He still wanted to try, so he found an excuse to go out and look for the two people. However, one of them left. So he could only try with the one in front of him. But it was really difficult for Xu Anchang to agree to this kind of thing readily, and he subconsciously wanted to greet his ancestors. But the Demonic Path doesn't accept the idea of ​​agreeing if you are willing and not agreeing if you are not willing. When it comes time to make a sacrifice, if you can't find a suitable reason and can't convince the person who gave the order, there is little room for refusal. If he refused now, if something unexpected happened, it would be difficult for him to explain when he returned, and the consequences would be beyond the imagination of most people. Anyway, the methods used by the Demonic Path are very intimidating. He said with embarrassment: "No, Brother Chun, if I don't know why we have to spar, how can I know the right measure for sparring?" Shi Chun said disapprovingly: "I will take care of the situation, it has nothing to do with you, just let go and do it with all your strength."

Xu Anchang forced a smile and said, "Brother Chun, there is no need for a sparring match. I am definitely not their opponent. In terms of strength, you are definitely stronger than me. If we want to spar, it is Brother Chun who should take the lead." Shi Chun said: "I have my own plan for everything. If you make someone unhappy during the sparring, I can help you to clean up the mess. If I make someone unhappy, how can you clean up the mess? You are nothing in their eyes." "..." The words were rough but the truth was there, Xu Anchang was speechless. At this point, how could he not know the purpose of Shi Chun's so-called "exchange"? He had already guessed that Shi Chun might have noticed that there was something wrong with the strength of the people here, otherwise he would be sick and would not come up with the idea of ​​exchanging ideas. But this doesn't mean that you have to go and test it out yourself. Even if you have heard the so-called inside information beforehand, you will still be a little nervous when facing people from such a place. The original plan was that after You Mu took the treasure, it would be You Mu who would test it. He really didn't expect that such a good thing would happen to him. If he had known this, he would have let You Mu stay. The messy regrets in his heart could not overcome the reality. He knew that he had no room to refuse. In addition, after hearing the inside story, he was not without courage to try, but he still tried to decline politely, "Brother Chun, how about letting someone from Mingshan Sect come to spar?" The implication is that we are the true companions, and the loss of a few people in Mingshan Sect does not matter. He wanted to delay until You Mu came back. However, Shichun didn't buy it. He wasn't really here to discuss marriage. The topic had almost come to an end, and he couldn't drag it on any longer. If he did, he would remember that the 'marriage proposal gift' was inappropriate. Besides, he had to decide now whether to buy gifts or not. He had to make a quick decision whether to go or stay, otherwise it would easily lead to more trouble. Otherwise, why did he bring these two people here? Wasn't it to cut the Gordian knot? So he directly denied it: "I said it's just a competition, they won't do anything to you, just do as you are told." Xu Anchang was also forced to not refuse anymore, and spread his hands slightly and said: "They have no reason and they look down on me, why should they compete with me?" Shi Chun: "There are many ways. For example, You Mu is missing, and you suspect that it is related to them, so you get angry. Or why you only let me in and not let you in are all excuses for you to get angry. Do I need to teach you this?" Xu Anchang's eyes widened and he asked him, "Brother Chun, are you asking me to spar with you or to pick a fight with you? Aren't you afraid that I will be beaten to death by them?" Shi Chun: "Don't be afraid, I'm here. I'll make them stop when they're done. Don't worry." He did not allow the other party to talk any more. He put a hand on his shoulder and whispered in his ear, "Hurry up. After I go down, you must get up. No hesitation is allowed. If you dare to disobey, don't worry about whether they will beat you to death. Ask me first whether I will beat you to death." He patted the other person's shoulder, passed him by, and went into the cave below. Faced with these irresistible and clear words, Xu Anchang's face was gloomy and he cursed secretly in his heart. So when Shi Chun just returned to the bottom of the tower and saw the old man and the others, he heard the rumbling sound of banging coming from inside the tower, mixed with the faint roar of Xu Anchang, shouting something like "Come out, come out". The eldest master, the ninth master, and Zhen'er all looked surprised, and then looked at Shi Chun in unison. Shi Chun spread his hands with a confused and innocent look on his face, indicating that he didn't know what was going on, and then quickly turned around to see what was going on. Jiu Ye and Zhen Er could not stay any longer and left quickly, but the old man continued to sit there calmly. After the others disappeared, the woman's voice rang out again in the empty space, "You really won't waste any time. I can't hold it any longer. Lao Jiu, take it easy." The group hurried upstairs, and as soon as they reached the exit on the top floor, they saw Xu Anchang banging on the metal wall, causing it to shine brightly. Shi Chun immediately went over and pushed him away, shouting, "Why are you arguing? What are you doing?" Xu Anchang was furious and asked, "Why can you enter but I can't? Why do you want to keep us out? What the hell is this place? What are you doing behind our backs?" As he spoke, he pointed directly at Jiu Ye and shouted angrily, "Who on earth are these people?" Zhen'er looked at him in disbelief and astonishment, then quickly looked at Jiu Ye, worried that the other party would anger Jiu Ye.

Shi Chun raised his hand and motioned Xu Anchang to go out first. "If you don't tell me, I'll do it myself!" Xu Anchang pushed his hand away and dodged to grab Jiu Ye. The corner of Jiu Ye's mouth twitched slightly, then he dodged. Xu Anchang pursued him relentlessly, then dodged and tried to catch him again. The two men began to evade and fight. Jiu Ye kept dodging and refused to fight with Xu Anchang. Xu Anchang felt more at ease seeing this and attacked more and more fiercely, making the metal ring rumble and forcing Jiu Ye's body into a precarious situation. He could only barely dodge. Anyway, Jiu Ye just kept dodging and refused to fight back. One had to admit that his body was quite agile. After finding an opportunity, he slipped out directly from the exit. Xu Anchang chased out, looked around, and raised his head suddenly, only to see Jiu Ye floating quietly in the air. Although this posture is quite scary, he knows that it is not strange for fire monsters to float. He was about to jump into the air, but Shi Chun came out to take a look and immediately took out the "Jiaoxian Ling" and shouted, "If you continue to be so presumptuous, don't blame me for being rude!" At the same time, he winked at Xu Anchang, signaling him to let it go. There was a place on the ground to leverage, but I couldn't do anything to him, and it was even more impossible in the air. There was no point in trying anymore. Xu Anchang seemed to be afraid of the magic weapon in his hand, so he gave up, waved his sleeves, and went aside angrily. "Master Jiu." Shi Chun bowed to the air again and again in an apologetic manner. Jiu Ye then floated down, and seemed unwilling to argue with Xu Anchang. He only warned Shi Chun, "I see you are here to propose marriage, and I don't want to hurt the relationship. If you dare to be presumptuous again, this marriage will not be concluded." He snorted and left. When he passed Zhen'er on his way back into the cave, he clearly saw Zhen'er looking at him with an expression of disbelief. Apparently, his good temper had once again exceeded her expectations. After watching him enter the cave, Shi Chun waved to Zhen'er, motioning him to go and comfort him. As soon as Zhen'er left, Shi Chun immediately turned around and went to Xu Anchang. Xu Anchang glanced around and whispered, "He's too flexible. This is all I can do." "Enough. Now go to where we stayed before. Wu Jinliang should have left a signpost at the highest point. You can find him by following the signpost. Ask him to bring people here immediately." As Shi Chun gave instructions, he crushed a stone and drew a signpost on his palm with stone powder to teach the other party how to identify the direction. (End of this chapter)
