Chapter 318: The Priest's Hostility

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Amidst the successive explosions

Dozens of Black Tide Monsters suddenly exploded, leaving only bones scattered across the ground.

The bones turned to flying ash and vanished between heaven and earth in an instant.

Not far away, Wang Ye and the others who were fighting other Black Tide Monsters all drew a cold breath at the sight.

"Another Savior Heir?"

The old man following Gu Han was also shocked beyond measure.

He had lived most of his life and had previously only seen Bai Ce, this one Savior Heir.

This was only because Bai Ce was a child he had watched grow up from a young age.

But today, it was merely a matter of an hour or two.

And yet he had encountered two Savior Heirs!

Could it be that these two Savior Heirs were sent by heaven to save their Lu Chui Zhen?

Xiao Kai casually waved his sleeves and annihilated all the remaining Black Tide Monsters.

Wang Ye and the others were merely a hair's breadth from the Black Tide Monsters, yet they were not affected by the explosion at all.

This also shows Xiao Kai's masterful control of power.

Wang Ye and the others hurriedly lowered their weapons, knelt on one knee before the proudly standing Xiao Kai in the air, and paid their respects,

"Wang Ye, Wang Fan, Wang Zhi… we pay our respects, Savior Heir!"

Except for the three who had just consumed the Spirit Fruit given by Gu Han.

The attitude of the others paying respects to Xiao Kai was far more reverent than when they had faced Gu Han before!

The people of Lu Chui Zhen have made a living by forging weapons for generations, and their reverence for power is greater than that of other regions.

Although Gu Han had shown a means to dispel the Black Tide's aura,

but in their hearts, it was obvious that Xiao Kai, who possessed unfathomable mighty power, was even more worthy of reverence!

Having learned all this along the way, Xiao Kai had long expected it.

When he was in the Jian Chi State, he also had thousands of disciples under his door.

He would not become conceited over a few worthless words from the natives of the Chong Yuan world.

The five young people who had followed Xiao Kai back only now came running back, panting.

They excitedly returned to their families' sides, full of excitement, saying,

"This Savior Heir was invited back by us!"

Regarding Xiao Kai's rescue of Wang Ye and the others, the five felt they shared in the honor.

The elders in their families even more so gave them gratified looks.

Being connected to a Savior Heir is a tremendous honor!

While the people of Lu Chui Zhen were discussing, Xiao Kai's gaze fell upon Gu Han in the crowd.

Gu Han's aura was not conspicuous, but his attire, which was starkly different from that of the locals, was especially eye-catching.

"Whose descendant are you?"

Xiao Kai approached Gu Han and casually asked a question.

The vortex entrance to the Chong Yuan world appeared in the wilderness, and people from all over the Jian Chi State could possibly enter Chong Yuan.

After entering the Chong Yuan secret realm this time, he had still never met anyone from the outside world.

Although Xiao Kai had never met Gu Han, if the other party's forces had some acquaintance with him,

he would not mind looking after them a bit.

Gu Han replied modestly,

"I am a member of the Gu family."

In the entire Jian Chi State, there are at least a dozen or so clans surnamed Gu.

He had no fear that the other party would notice he was not a native of the Jian Chi State.

"Oh, a member of the Gu family."

Xiao Kai nodded, and his interest in Gu Han waned considerably.

There are many Gu families in the Jian Chi State, but none of them have any connection with him.

Xiao Kai lost interest, did not want to waste time here, and quickly sought out the strongest person in the crowd, Wang Ye.

"The front line of the Black Tide Monsters has already approached Lu Chui Zhen; I am about to prepare to go to Sheng Cheng. You had better pack up and follow me."

Xiao Kai originally did not want to waste time on these weak natives.

But along the way, he had thought a lot.

The last time he entered the Chong Yuan world, he only focused on killing those Black Tide Monsters.

Although it raised him three minor realms, such a miraculous world should not have such limited use.

This time, after encountering the natives of the Chong Yuan world, Xiao Kai dispelled his previous thoughts.

Perhaps he could gain even greater benefits from these natives.

According to those few young people, in the Chong Yuan world, the Heixia Yu is a relatively remote place.

But even a tiny Lu Chui Zhen could have someone of Martial Ancestor level.

The Sheng Cheng where the Savior Heirs reside might well have a Martial King, or even stronger beings!

As a Martial Venerable, in the outside world, as long as he does not provoke those stronger than him, he can have the wind when he wants wind and the rain when he wants rain.

If you want greater gains, you must go to Sheng Cheng!

But given his strength, rashly heading to Sheng Cheng could very well run into danger.

With these locals following, his safety factor could be greatly increased.

As for the Savior Heir's personal invitation, Wang Ye also did not dare to neglect it.

"The specific affairs of Lu Chui Zhen are beyond my decision; I can only relay your invitation to the Priest, so please wait a moment."

Xiao Kai felt a bit dissatisfied, but he still waved his hand, signaling Wang Ye to go quickly and return quickly.

But what ability could a priest of such a trifling place possibly have?

If he didn't still need these people from Lu Chui Zhen...

The priest dared to defy his command, and with a wave of his hand he took the other's life!

Not far away, Gu Han originally had many Lu Chui Zhen townspeople beside him.

Now, however, the residence is deserted; those townspeople have all flocked to Xiao Kai's side, chattering away, eager to ingratiate themselves with him.

Beside Gu Han, only one elder of the Wang family remains.

Wang An also harbored doubts in his heart.

Logically, the Savior Heir's esteemed ones should be companions jointly resisting the Black Tide.

But why do these two esteemed ones appear not only unacquainted, but even somewhat estranged?

This seems not quite consistent with their prior understanding of the Savior Heir's esteemed ones.

However, he knows he is insignificant and dares not speak, merely staying quietly beside Gu Han.

After about the time it takes to finish a cup of tea, Wang Ye arrived with several stooped elders and a burly man as big as a small mountain.

That burly man pushed a wheelchair, on which sat a timid little girl.

The little girl seemed somewhat afraid of the surrounding gazes; only under the burly man's soothing did she refrain from crying out in fear.

And on the burly man's clothes were several dried bloodstains.

Obviously, Lu Chui Zhen is not the only place harboring Black Tide monsters.

These burly men have likely just repelled a wave of Black Tide monsters.

Among the several elders in priestly robes, the one walking in the middle narrowed his eyes and gave Xiao Kai a light glance.

Before Wang Ye could introduce him, he spoke up.

"This must be the Savior Heir, right?"

His eyes lacked the reverence shown by Wang Ye and the others.

There seemed to be a hint of hostility.

Xiao Kai naturally sensed the hostility, and coldly snorted,

"How come I drove off the Black Tide for you, yet you act this way—could it be you still want to blame me?"
