"How is this possible..."

"How can it be~"

"Chu Xiu is only at the fourth layer of the Wheel Sea, yet why does it seem like he's overpowering Chen Yunfei? And Chen Yunfei can't even put up a fight."

"If Chen Yunfei hadn't already fallen, I'd suspect he was throwing the match."

Indeed, from the perspective of the onlookers, it appeared that Chu Xiu had been suppressing Chen Yunfei from the very start.

But that wasn't the case.

Blame it on Chen Yunfei for talking too much and showing off, giving Chu Xiu the chance to strike first.

A series of continuous attacks left him unable to withstand.

After the silence, there was an uproar.

The gamblers on the ground felt the world spinning, wailing filled the air, and the scene was a mess.

"I lost again, this time I've really lost everything, I shouldn't have gambled!"

"Ahhh, the ten thousand top-grade Essence Stones I just borrowed, gone just like that?"

"Damn Chen Yunfei, how could you be so disappointing, give me back my Profound Weapon."

"Chu Xiu, that bastard, he's definitely pretending to be weak to catch the strong, I even suspect he's hiding his cultivation base."

"I hate it!"

"If I gamble again, I'm a dog."

Tens of thousands wailed to the heavens, beating their chests, the scene was spectacular.

Taoyao, on the other hand, was all smiles as she flew with Chu Xiu to the high platform.

"Senior Brother, you're amazing."

"It's just a Foundation Establishment stage match, nothing worth mentioning," Chu Xiu said calmly, without joy or sorrow.

He couldn't even remember how many Lesser Saints he'd killed.

How could a mere first layer Divine Bridge stir the heart of Old Demon Chu?

Jian Lingyun's face was grim.

This match had cost him dearly.

He gave Chu Xiu a deep look, flicked his sleeve, and turned into a blue streak of light, flying away.

He disdained to threaten Chu Xiu with harsh words.

Only the weak use harsh words, and Jian Lingyun was not weak.

Under the gaze of tens of thousands filled with resentment, regret, hatred, envy, and jealousy, Chu Xiu beamed as he began collecting the mountain of spoils.

"Oh dear..."

Chu Xiu suddenly exclaimed.

Once again drawing the attention of the disciples who had just managed to look away.

"The storage pouch is full, Junior Sister, do you have a spare?"

Taoyao waved her jade-like hand, and a delicate red storage pouch flew towards Chu Xiu.

Chu Xiu raised his hand to catch it, Origin Force surged, and after a few breaths, he refined it.

Wow.

The storage pouch he was using now only had a space of 50 cubic meters.

The one Taoyao gave him had a full 200 cubic meters.

"Thanks, Junior Sister."

"Senior Brother, just use it, no need to be polite," Taoyao smiled gently, dimples appearing at the corners of her mouth.

Chu Xiu stored items worth 10 million Essence Stones into the storage pouch.

Holding the bottle of seventh-grade Celestial Profound Pills in his right hand, he called out loudly, "Is there any Junior Brother or Sister who wants to continue gambling with me?"

"Don't you want these fragrant top-grade Celestial Profound Pills?"

Upon hearing this, the disciples who had lost everything twitched their cheeks, their expressions astonishing.

I'm begging you to act like a human!

You're not here to compete, you're here to stock up, determined to empty our storage pouches of the last Essence Stone before you're satisfied?

"Sigh, since that's the case, I'll be leaving then?"

Chu Xiu flicked his fingers, and a palm-sized flying boat appeared, growing with the wind into a small flying boat a few meters long, hovering in front of him.

"Am I really leaving?"

Chu Xiu jumped onto the flying boat.

Then, just when everyone thought he was going to control the flying boat to leave, this bastard poked his head out again, smiling gently, "I'm really leaving, you know."

[Ding, Host, you're damn dark, bad, and cheap, truly a born villain. You've received a system reward: 200 Breakthrough Points.]

"Just get the hell out already!"

"I don't want to see you again."

"Every time I see you, I think of my vanished thirty thousand top-grade Essence Stones."

The disciples stared at Chu Xiu with red eyes.

For the full version, visit [ pawℝead.com ].

They hated him!

They hated him so much.

If this weren't inside the Holy Land, they might have swarmed him to kill and rob.

On the platform, murderous intent surged, almost forming a tangible storm, threatening to tear Chu Xiu to pieces.

"Time to go!"

Chu Xiu controlled the flying boat, leaving this place of trouble in an instant.

Before leaving, he received a transmission from Taoyao.

"Senior Brother, today you've offended Jian Lingyun."

"This person is deeply scheming, a dog that bites without barking, be careful of him."

Chu Xiu nodded slightly, thanked her, and controlled the flying boat towards Cloudmist Peak.

Being in the Holy Land, he wasn't worried about revenge.

His most pressing concern now was still the improvement of his cultivation base.

Hmm...

This time, I won items worth a total of 16 million Essence Stones, I wonder how many Breakthrough Points I can exchange for.

No rush.

With nothing else to do, I'll first find Master to break through my aptitude and maximize today's gains.

Chu Xiu looked ahead, his expression indifferent, thinking to himself.

There wasn't a trace of the previous mischievous demeanor.

Did he act mischievously before leaving just to earn those 200 Breakthrough Points from the system?

Not at all.

With his persona as Old Demon Chu, smiling while killing was one thing, but acting mischievous? Was that possible?

Then why did he do it?

Because just now, he used the Bronze Fox Mask left on his master to eavesdrop on a conversation between two people.

To prevent these big figures from connecting him with his identity as Old Demon Chu, such performances would have to continue in the future.

Qi Mengdie: "Holy Lord, are you saying Chu Xiu entered the deepest part of the Place of Origin and found the legendary Primordial Sword Intent?"

Qi Mengdie, surprised, said, "How is that possible? My disciple's aptitude is dull, let alone finding the Primordial Sword Intent, even entering the Place of Origin to comprehend intent is extremely difficult."

Taisuzi said calmly, "I saw it with my own eyes."

"Mengdie, has your disciple's temperament changed recently?"

Qi Mengdie: "Holy Lord, are you suspecting he was possessed?"

Taisuzi was silent for a long time before saying, "Initially, I had that thought too, but I quickly dismissed it. Those capable of possessing others with their primordial spirit are at least at the Lesser Saint cultivation base, and to reach the Lesser Saint Realm, one must have their own 'intent.'"

"The Place of Origin can only be entered once in a lifetime, even a possessor cannot defy the supreme rule."

"Therefore, I do not suspect Chu Xiu was possessed."

Qi Mengdie: "If my disciple wasn't possessed, how did he reach the deepest part of the Place of Origin?"

Taisuzi: "Perhaps he obtained some heaven-defying opportunity."

"At the fourth layer of the Wheel Sea, he punched and killed an early-stage Divine Bridge Realm, his blood energy like smoke, like a humanoid Desolate Beast, such a physique is extraordinary."

"I suspect he has awakened a Divine Physique similar to the Cangyuan Tyrant Body, extremely strong in the flesh."

"Mengdie, nurture this disciple well. With the Primordial Sword Intent and an unknown Divine Physique, our Taisu Holy Land might have an invincible Quasi-Emperor Sword God in the future."

"I will..."

Wearing the Bronze Fox Mask, Qi Mengdie's delicate body twisted unnaturally.

Thinking, nurture him well? How am I supposed to nurture him?

I've already become an experience pack for cultivation aptitude for that rebellious disciple!

Hearing this, Chu Xiu almost burst out laughing.

He could completely imagine Qi Mengdie's feelings at that moment, how utterly flabbergasted she must have been.

Controlling the flying boat, he headed towards the top of Cloudmist Peak, intending to have a deep discussion about martial arts with his master.

By chance, he encountered his third junior sister, Ren Hongying.

"Senior Brother, you're back."

Ren Hongying's gaze was complicated. She had already heard from other disciples on Cloudmist Peak about what Chu Xiu had done on Heaven's Punishment Peak.

Now, when she looked at Chu Xiu, her eyes were filled with shock and confusion.

Thinking, when did Senior Brother become so strong?

Chu Xiu nodded, his smile gentle, "Third Junior Sister, are you here to see Master?"

"Yes, but Master didn't see me," Ren Hongying said helplessly.

Chu Xiu made an 'oh' sound.

He jumped off the flying boat, shrunk it to the size of a thumb, stored it in his storage pouch, and walked slowly towards the main entrance of the Grand Hall.

"Senior Brother... Master isn't seeing anyone right now."

Ren Hongying frowned.

"Master, your disciple requests an audience."

"Mm~ come in!"

A cold, slightly authoritative, and melodious voice came through.

Ren Hongying's eyes widened in disbelief.

Staring at Chu Xiu's back as he entered the Grand Hall, she looked as if she'd seen a ghost, "Since when did Senior Brother become so favored by Master?"
