Chapter 609: In my opinion, the Li family is better than the Xiao family.

Huang Shiren was startled, and a bad feeling emerged in his heart. He said cautiously: "Yes, a few years ago, my son was beaten to death by the children of the Taoist Alliance family..."

Murong Ji nodded, and then said: "You can become his disciple, learn his craft, and take care of him until his death. After sending away the remaining craftsmen, come find me again."

Huang Shiren was stunned for a moment, then he breathed a sigh of relief. What he feared most was that Murong Ji would drive him away.

Then, Murong Ji said, "Before you become my disciple, tell the craftsman Yu everything. Don't hide anything. It's up to him whether he accepts you or not."

"No matter what the result is, go find Xiao Ning and ask him to help deal with the noble family children who violated the Taoist League's rules. If they kill someone without reason, they will pay with their lives."

"Yes, disciple understands."

After dinner, Huang Shiren went down the mountain.

Murong Ji looked at his back, his mind sank. He had to say that if Huang Shiren were to be his disciple, with his character, he would be qualified to be the founding disciple.

In him, Murong Ji even saw the shadow of his senior brother Song Daren.

Honest and hardworking people are never liked by others.

Such people are not stupid. They are often able to concentrate on doing one thing, go deep into a certain profession, study hard, and are not distracted by external things.

But, his personality is not likable.

The character is dull and cannot provide people with novel experiences or emotional value.

Murong Ji slowly exhaled, chuckled, turned and went into the cave to continue practicing.

A few months passed by in a hurry.

After a while, another whole year will pass.

Murong Ji was still a little dazed, but time passed by so quickly.

Only seven days in the cave, a thousand years in the world...

It seems that the flow of time in the mountains is really different from that in the outside world.

Then, Murong Ji slowly stopped practicing, stood up, and walked out of the cave.

He looked up at the bright sky and let out a long breath. He was at the eighth level of Jade Purity. His current cultivation level made him a mainstay in the Taoist Alliance.

A quick glance at the shed at the entrance of the cave showed that it was already a bit old. The wood was damaged even faster in the mountains due to the wind and rain.

Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking air in the sky. Murong Ji looked up and saw a disciple of the Taoist Alliance flying in the sky on a sword.

Murong Ji's heart skipped a beat. Counting the days, it has been almost six months now. It is time to deal with the disciples of the Taoist Alliance guarding the border.

Murong Ji sneered. He didn't know what Xiao Wancheng was like now, but the Xiao family was very powerful and influential. These Taoist Alliance disciples were still searching for him, so he was afraid that the wanted warrant for him had not been cancelled yet.

"We have searched here. You are really persistent." Murong Ji muttered, and then left a letter for Huang Shiren, pressed it on the stone table outside the cave entrance, and set up a ban.

He turned and went into the cave, put away the furnace, put all the items in the cave in order, and after everything was tidy, he erased the array pattern.

At this moment, Huang Shiren's voice came from outside the cave: "Sir, two people are looking for you."

Murong Ji was stunned. He really didn't expect Huang Shiren to come back at this time. He thought that the two would never meet.

There were footsteps outside the cave.

Murong Ji turned around and saw two people following behind Huang Shiren. They were both wearing black robes, black hoods on their heads, and a thin black veil on their faces, so they couldn't see their appearance clearly.

One is tall and the other is short. The tall one is sturdy and strong, while the one who is slightly shorter has a petite figure.

[A man and a woman!] Murong Ji suddenly remembered who they were. Xiao Tianhao and Li Muchen.

"Who are you two..." Murong Ji asked casually. These two people really dare to meddle in everything!

Hand Murong Ji the knife...

Inside the pitch-black hood, the face was covered with a layer of black gauze that was slightly lifted, revealing a few facial traces and barely discernible facial features.

"Mr. Chen, you don't need to care who we are. Anyway, we won't harm you." The person who spoke had a strange voice, a neutral voice, and it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman.

"We just want to ask you a few questions. We have no ill intentions. Of course, if you don't cooperate... we don't mind bringing in disciples from the Dao League."

Murong Ji burst out laughing, "Are you threatening me?"

When will an old fox tolerate intimidation and threats from juniors like them?
This kind of trick is what he has left over from his past.

Murong Ji was too lazy to say anything more. He just waved his hand and turned around to continue dealing with his own affairs.

The two of them were unsure of what he meant, and before they could open their mouths to try to persuade him, they suddenly felt a piercing chill behind them.

His heart was shaken, and the super strong demonic power suddenly erupted. Xiao Tianhao was the first to react, and immediately turned around to meet the enemy, and the long sword in his hand immediately defended. "Bang!"

With a dull thud, the tremendous force directly knocked Xiao Tianhao back several meters.

After seeing who it was, I was shocked. It was the bull demon? ! ! [It knocked me back with one punch! It’s even stronger than me! ]

Xiao Tianhao's heart sank, and his eyes turned solemn as he looked at Huang Shiren. He didn't know how much of his strength the bull demon had used...

It should be said that it is brute strength. Oxen are born with brute strength, the kind with maxed-out talent.

Now that you are entering the stage of spiritual practice, your brute force should not be underestimated.

Xiao Tianhao finally reacted and was about to step forward with his sword when he saw a golden bracelet suddenly appear in the center of Huang Shiren's palm, floating in his palm and slowly rotating.

The next moment, the bracelet was suddenly thrown out and flew into the air, freezing and spinning rapidly.

In an instant, the surrounding spiritual energy was drained away. Xiao Tianhao was shocked, and the magic sword in his hand flew out of his hand without him noticing.

It was as if something was suppressing and pulling it, taking it away with tyrannical force.

The magic weapon must not be lost!

Without his magic weapon, he is no match for this bull monster!
In a hurry, Xiao Tianhao took a step forward, gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, and used his own cultivation to hold the sword so that Huang Shiren could not take it away!
At the same time, he made hand seals with his left hand, trying to take back control of the magic weapon, but no matter how hard he cast spells, he could not move the sword at all.

In a hurry, Xiao Tianhao turned around and yelled at Li Muchen: "Run! Uh..."

After a moment of stunned silence, Li Muchen didn't need his reminder and had already run a long distance away.

Huang Shiren glanced at the man who was about to reach the cave entrance and sneered. If this man hadn't reminded him, he might have let him run away! By then, there would be no shortage of people who were incompetent!
Huang Shiren pushed his hand suddenly, and while Xiao Tianhao was stunned, he instantly caught the magic sword, set up a ban with the Wuding Flying Ring, and temporarily suppressed the magic weapon.

Then he tapped his feet lightly and appeared in front of her suddenly, faster than Li Muchen, and slammed out with his palm, hitting Li Muchen's chest directly.

That powerful force was definitely not something that Li Muchen could withstand with his current level of cultivation.

Xiao Tianhao's eyes were bloodshot, and he didn't care about the sword. He jumped up and rushed towards Li Muchen quickly. His body was as fast as lightning, and he blocked Li Muchen before Huang Shiren's Vajra Palm fell.

The Vajra Palm is a powerful palm technique that relies mainly on force. Huang Shiren himself is a brute force monster, and he has increased the power of the Vajra Palm by several levels.

Humans are weak and will surely die if hit by a palm strike!

At this moment, Murong Ji said calmly: "Leave them both alive."

Huang Shiren suddenly withdrew his hand, and most of his strength dissipated. The power of his palm was like a breeze blowing on the face, pushing Li Muchen and Xiao Tianhao back.

Even so, the force was not light, causing Li Muchen and the other man to crash heavily into the stone wall.

Li Muchen was pressed under someone's body and was knocked so hard that he spit out a mouthful of blood, which sprayed directly onto his mask. The smell of blood instantly filled the air.

Xiao Tianhao hurried to her side, carefully checked her injuries, and was relieved to confirm that she was only slightly injured.

After coming to his senses, Xiao Tianhao half-knelt on the ground, clasped his fists and apologized, "Mr. Chen, we were blind and offended you. Please forgive us. The Xiao family will reward you handsomely in the future."

Xiao Tianhao lowered his head and put his forehead on his clenched fist, which was considered as kowtowing.

Murong Ji glanced at them calmly, continued to pack up his things, and murmured, "You can come if you want to, and leave if you want to. You also want me to give face to the Xiao family... Hehe... In my opinion, the Li family is better than the Xiao family."

Xiao Tianhao's heart skipped a beat, and he then remembered the grudge between Murong Ji and the Xiao family!
"Detain them. I can still use them."

As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Shiren strode forward and used two consecutive Vajra Palms to knock the two men unconscious. Then, he sealed the closed Yuan needle and used the Immortal Binding Rope to attack them.

Finally, he put the two of them into his swallowing bag. Then he looked up at Murong Ji.

Murong Ji had already sorted out the things in the cave and destroyed all the formation patterns. Even the traces of the formation patterns were scraped away without leaving any trace.

After walking out of the cave, Murong Ji looked back at Huang Shiren and said in a deep voice, "Master Yu accepted you as his apprentice?"

Huang Shiren's tone stagnated, "Yes, a month ago, I just became your disciple..."

Murong Ji nodded, "Then learn the craft well. Spirituality is something illusory, but it definitely exists. There are very few people like Yu the Craftsman in the human race."

The two walked down the mountain while talking.

"Boom!"

With a loud noise, the cave collapsed suddenly. Huang Shiren looked back and asked in a deep voice: "Master, you...I..."

Murong Ji seemed to know what he was going to say, "The life span of humans is short, and Yu the craftsman has only a few years to live. For you, it's just a matter of a moment."

"He is your chance. If you can really master your own spiritual charm through him, you will still have divine help in your future meditation and enlightenment. If you miss him, I don't know if you will still have the luck to meet someone like him again."

"As for me, you don't have to worry. My lifespan is much longer than that of other humans. My current cultivation is enough for me to live for about three hundred years."
