Chapter 227: Make friends sincerely?

Yan Cangqiong was first suddenly immobilized by the quasi-emperor's might, and then he launched an all-out attack at all costs, but was blocked by the Lihuo Divine Furnace, so it could be said that his attack was completely in vain.

At this point, his incarnation had already been overdrawn, and its strength had weakened by at least 30%.

The incarnation's overall strength was already slightly inferior to Chai Xin's, and now it has been weakened by another 30%, the gap has become irreparable.

What's more, the quasi-imperial power of the Lihuo Divine Furnace was always locked on him. In his current state, he was powerless to resist.

"boom!"

Chai Xin had planned ahead, and this palm strike at this moment unleashed extreme power, smashing it directly into the Lihuo Divine Furnace.

"It's done!"

He shrunk the Lihuo Divine Furnace to the size of a palm, and looked at the bumps and marks that continued to appear on its surface. He did not look panicked at all, but instead smiled.

The strength of Yan Cangqiong's incarnation should be roughly the same as that of Fairy Qingshi.

However, now that it has been weakened and separated from its true body, it is impossible for it to recover.

With Chai Xin's current strength, if he put Fairy Qingshi into the Lihuo God Furnace again, he would be sure to kill her permanently, not to mention a damaged incarnation.

"This incarnation today is just interest. I will kill your real body later to settle the account."

Chai Xin flicked the surface of the Lihuo God Furnace with his fingers and put it away. In a few days, he would be able to completely refine the incarnation to death.

This is also good for him. With the nourishment of the incarnation of a Saint King, the consumption of the Lihuo Divine Furnace will be much smaller for a long time to come.

"He... won!"

"How could it be so fast? I haven't seen the situation clearly yet! What was that furnace tripod just now? It seems very extraordinary."

"A battle that will surely go down in history ended so hastily, or even hastily?"

"Is it careless? Humph, I don't think it's careless at all! This guy is not only extremely powerful in combat, but also has the most scheming and tactics among his peers. Even the elders have been tricked by him. He is definitely a formidable enemy!"

It was not until Chai Xin's figure disappeared from the sky above the city that many people came to their senses and started discussing heatedly. The entire second human city seemed to be boiling.

A young genius actually suppressed the incarnation of the Saint King. This was an epoch-making event.

After this battle, anyone with a normal mind on this ancient trial road would no longer question Chai Xin’s ability.

Many people have begun to look forward to the scene where he will face off against Di Tian, ​​the Great Demon God and others.

Although Chai Xin suppressed an incarnation of the Saint King today, it does not mean that Di Tian and the Great Demon God do not have the ability to do so.

After all, they had never had a head-on collision with such a being.

But among the surging crowd, some people have begun to elevate Chai Xin, worshipping him as the number one person in the ancient road today, and even Emperor Tian and the Great Demon God have to give way to him.

Regardless of whether this behavior is well-intentioned or malicious, it is indeed difficult to refute at the moment.

After all, so far only Chai Xin has been able to suppress a Saint King-level fighter head-on in full view of everyone.

At the same time, a lot of news began to spread.

The most widely circulated and recognized piece of news is that Chai Xin had already refined the source of Tao and entered the realm of Holy Tao before stepping into the second city of the human race.

As for his current cultivation level, it is nothing more than the result of covering up with some secret technique or magic weapon.

If not for this, people really couldn't believe that a person who hadn't even entered the Saint Realm could have the power to suppress the incarnation of the Saint King.

Of course, regardless of whether the Source of Tao has been refined by Chai Xin, many people have given up the idea of ​​snatching it.

Who would dare to snatch the treasure from a ruthless man who could suppress the incarnation of the Saint King? Going there would be a way to die, and no one is a fool.

These discussions and rumors immediately swept across the entire ancient road like a hurricane and were known to many top geniuses.

However, the instigator of this storm forgot everything after the battle and was invited to a banquet.

When Chai Xin received the invitation to the banquet, he was a little surprised, especially after learning the identity of the organizer, he became even more interested.

The organizer of the hidden banquet turned out to be the city lord and guide who had never shown up!
The banquet was naturally held in the City Lord's Mansion. There were many participants. In addition to Chai Xin, many famous talents on the ancient road were also invited.

If it were before today, when these geniuses met Chai Xin, they would inevitably look down on him, and even make some provocative and threatening remarks, with the intention of interfering with the Source of Dao.

However, after witnessing the battle between Chai Xin and the incarnation of the Saint King, when they met again, these people naturally became more gentle and kinder than each other.

The City Lord's Mansion covers a large area, with countless pavilions, waterside terraces, palaces and towers, and even a large lake and forests.

The banquet was held in the dense forest beside the lake.

The spiritual energy here is rich, wild flowers emit a subtle fragrance, and rare birds and animals can be seen everywhere. It is like a paradise in the bustling ancient city.

Surrounded by a crowd of people, Chai Xin came to the forest. From afar he heard a melodious sound of a zither floating in his ears. It gave him a feeling of ascending to heaven, and he had mastered the art of zither.

Even Chai Xin, who was unfamiliar with music, could sense the vast and majestic artistic conception in it and couldn't help but secretly admire it.

"The Chai Dao Tai has arrived!"

But at this moment, a man dressed as a servant saw Chai Xin coming from afar and immediately called out his name loudly.

Chai Xin fought a series of battles on the ancient road and never tried to conceal his identity. Naturally, many knowledgeable people had already concluded that he was a congenital Taoist fetus.

The innate Dao fetus is certainly rare, but it is not that shocking on the ancient road. After all, the geniuses of the human race from various star fields are gathered here, and there are too many different kinds of special physiques.

Even the legendary Human King Body, Sky Overlord Body, Brahma War Body... and other body types occasionally appear in the world. Although the innate Taoist fetus is still rare among them, it is not that shocking.

Hearing that Chai Xin had arrived, many people stood up, looked over and took the initiative to greet him.

Chai Xin smiled and returned the greetings one by one. As the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling person. Regardless of whether these people had hidden thoughts behind their faces, there was no need to delve into it at this moment.

"Brother Chai, I didn't expect to see you again so soon."

At the same time, a familiar cold voice came gently. Although it was not loud, it instantly overwhelmed everyone else.

This person was none other than Fairy Qingshi.

Everyone was secretly surprised when they heard this, because it turned out that Fairy Qingshi had already met this Chai Daotai.

This made many people think deeply. Almost everyone on the Ancient Road knew the relationship between Fairy Qingshi and Emperor Tian. There were rumors that the other party came back this time to fight for the source of Tao for the latter.

If these two people have met, does it mean that they have fought each other? What does it matter who won or lost?
Everyone's mind was confused, but no one dared to ask in public at this moment. They could only endure it as if they were feeling anxious.

They were also looking forward to what kind of sparks would be created by the meeting of the two strongest geniuses. "I didn't expect the fairy to be here too. It's a pleasure to meet you." Chai Xin smiled calmly and bowed in return.

Fairy Qingshi took light lotus steps and slowly left her seat amid the astonished gazes of everyone.

She walked up to Chai Xin, a faint smile on her peerless face, without any trace of the embarrassment she had experienced after being suppressed in the Yu Li Fire God Furnace by Chai Xin.

"Brother Chai, I only came here to ask two questions. If you can answer them, I will not disturb you."

Fairy Qingshi stopped two steps away, her gentle gaze was like the warm sunshine, making people feel like they were bathed in the spring breeze.

Chai Xin's smile did not fade, and he seemed a little surprised. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Two? I thought the fairy only came for the source of Tao."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere around them became tense.

The gentle smiles on everyone's faces froze.

No one had ever thought that these two top geniuses would be so straightforward. They got straight to the point as soon as they met, without any concealment or avoidance.

At the same time, the lingering sound of the piano suddenly stopped.

Chai Xin looked over and found that the person playing the instrument was actually a woman dressed as a maid, who was looking at him curiously.

"Brother Chai, you are quick to speak. One of the two things is naturally related to the source of Tao. I would like to ask Brother Chai, has the source of Tao been refined?"

Fairy Qingshi's expression remained the same, and she was not disturbed by Chai Xin's straightforwardness.

When everyone heard this question, their hearts skipped a beat, and they were equally curious about it.

Chai Xin walked to a table as if no one was around, casually grabbed a scarlet spiritual fruit and took a bite, then glanced at everyone while chewing before slowly nodding.

"Originally I have no obligation to answer your question, but I see that you have a good attitude and are not annoying, so I might as well tell you."

Chai Xin finished the spiritual fruit in a few bites, spit out the core and slowly spoke.

"Yes, it has indeed been refined. So, those of you who are planning to take the source of the Tao, you can take a break. Don't give up your life in vain."

The reason for answering this question is certainly not as simple as Fairy Qingshi’s good attitude.

Instead, everyone was always thinking about this matter. Even though Chai Xin was not afraid, he couldn't help feeling uncomfortable. So he simply spoke out to avoid more trouble.

And he said

When the rumor was confirmed, everyone felt it was expected, yet also a little disappointed. However, they all quickly returned to normal.

What's more, some people even took the initiative to bow and congratulate Chai Xin.

Many people immediately further confirmed that Chai Xin’s strength must have entered the holy realm, and his external performance was just a cover-up.

After all, the Source of Tao is not an ordinary treasure. If one cannot even reach the realm of a saint after refining it, then how can it be called a rare treasure that is rarely seen once in hundreds of thousands of years?
Geniuses like Emperor Tian and Fairy Qingshi would not take it so seriously.

"Alas, it is true. It seems that I really have no chance of getting this treasure..."

Fairy Qingshi shook her head and sighed, but there was not much disappointment between her pretty brows, and it was obvious that she had expected this.

"The second thing... Brother Chai, could you please give me a favor and make a friend?"

Everyone had different expressions when they heard this, and they immediately thought of who the friend she was talking about was.

Apart from Di Tian, ​​who else could make the otherworldly Fairy Qingshi willing to lower her head and be the middleman?

Chai Xin shook off the remaining juice on his hands and said in surprise, "Fairy, have you forgotten what I said so quickly?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone became more curious.

"I found that there are many people who look like fairies on this ancient road. I always hope that I can give them face... But have you forgotten that you and I don't even know each other, so what face can I give?"

Chai Xin's smile grew wider, but his tone grew colder.

"You want to introduce me to a friend, but you and I are not even friends, so how can you introduce me to someone else? Besides, we still have a grudge that has not been resolved, so we can't be friends."

His words were extremely direct, and he did not give any face to Fairy Qingshi or even Emperor Tian behind her.

In fact, ever since he entered the world of cultivation, Chai Xin had long been fed up with these people who seemed to be very cultured but in fact were extremely self-important.

It seems that for them, no matter how excessive their actions have been, as long as they are willing to take the initiative to reconcile, it is already the greatest gift to others.

If you refuse to accept this "gift", they will regard you as ungrateful, or even a provocation or humiliation.

Little do they know that these people have never regarded others as equals in their subconscious minds, and always talk to themselves in a condescending manner.

Chai Xin's words made the atmosphere, which had just heated up, instantly cool down again.

No one expected that, faced with a legendary figure like Fairy Qingshi, this person would actually refuse without hesitation, and even sarcastically expressed himself in his words.

However, everyone soon realized that this was a ruthless person who could be suppressed even by the incarnation of the Saint King, so it didn't seem surprising that he would say such inhumane words.

Even someone as calm as Fairy Qingshi was stunned by Chai Xin's words and for a moment she didn't know how to react.

As sharp as she was, she already understood why Chai Xin's attitude suddenly turned cold, but she was still not sure why.

"You are so rude. My young lady is sincere in wanting to make friends with you. Why do you have to be so sarcastic?" At this time, the maid walked over with a frown and scolded in a bad tone.

The smile on Chai Xin's face froze and his eyes fell on the maid, who immediately trembled, her breathing stagnated, and her face turned pale in an instant.

"Ling'er, I'm talking to Brother Chai, how can I allow you to be so presumptuous?"

Fairy Qingshi immediately came back to her senses and put her maid Ling'er behind her. It seemed like she was scolding her, but in fact she was protecting her.

"Those three heroes of Gou Chen, and the three damn Dharma protectors Yue, Zeng, and Shen, brought more than 20 saintly Emperor Heavenly Guards to set up a killing array to get rid of me! Now, you want to let this grudge go with just a few empty words?"

Chai Xin's smile returned to his face, but the coldness in his eyes became even stronger.

"Are you really too stupid, or do you think I'm easy to bully? If I give you three hundred and eighty spiral slaps today and come back tomorrow to sincerely make friends with you, will you nod happily and agree?"

A series of rhetorical questions were asked so lightly that one could hear a pin drop.

The maid who had been looking resentful before now had a blush on her pretty face, and her eyes were more hesitant and evasive.

A glimmer of enlightenment flashed in Fairy Qingshi's eyes. It was not until this moment that she finally realized how arrogant she was in fact when she took the initiative to make friends today, which she thought was sincere and even "humble".
