750 This Is Too Unskilled (1)
There was a mountain peak towering into the clouds in the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
On the mountain peak, palaces stretched on and on, decorated with carved beams and painted buildings. It was like a fairyland.
This was where the Tang family of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven lived.
It was also the supreme place of the entire Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
There were hundreds of millions of people in the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven. Although there were no nations, there were still cities. These cities were directly subordinate to the Tang family.
The Tang family could be considered the imperial family of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
As for the head of the Tang family, he was the emperor of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
In the era when the master of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven didnât appear, the head of the Tang family was an existence that could do whatever he wanted.
Tang Qianluo was the current head of the Tang family.
Previously, he had personally gone to ask Zhou Shu for the Divine Stone. In his opinion, he had already given Zhou Shu enough face.
But since Zhou Shu was ungrateful, he couldnât blame him for taking some measures.
But dealing with Zhou Shu was not worthy of Tang Qianluo personally taking action. He only gave the orders. His subordinates would naturally take care of the details.
At this moment, Tang Qianluo had long put Zhou Shuâs matter aside. He was currently receiving guests from the Sima Grotto-Heaven.
âBrother Zheng, youâve come out of seclusion?â Tang Qianluo smiled gracefully. âBrother Zheng, your cultivation has improved. Congratulations.â
âWhatâs there to congratulate?â A middle-aged man opposite him shook his head. âThe higher your cultivation, the faster you die.â
Tang Qianluo: ââŠâ
âFamily Head Tang, Iâm not here to chat with you. Iâm here on official business,â the middle-aged man continued.
âBrother Ji, do you want to say it, or should I?â The middle-aged man turned to someone beside him.
The person beside him was Ji Lutian.
Ji Lutian was thin, and his face was slightly pale, but his demeanor was still graceful. He smiled and said, âLet me explain.â
He cupped his hands at Tang Qianluo. âBrother Tang, long time no see.â
Tang Qianluoâs expression was cold as he glanced at Ji Lutian. âLong time no see. Tell me. Why are you here?â
âIâm here to ask you for a favor.â Ji Lutian was not angry at Tang Qianluoâs coldness. âZhou Shu has some relationship with me. I donât know how he offended you, but I apologize to you on his behalf. I hope you can be magnanimous.â
âSir Ji,â Tang Qianluo interrupted Ji Lutian before he could finish. âZhou Shu didnât offend me. I asked someone to bring him back because he colluded with the Demon Realm and wanted to subvert our human race.
âThis isnât a personal grudge. Itâs righteousness!
âIf he was just rude to me, do you think I would be so petty as to argue with a junior?â
Tang Qianluo raised his head. âYouâre underestimating me too much!â
The middle-aged man who came with Ji Lutian pursed his lips, his eyes indifferent.
Ji Lutianâs expression didnât change as he cupped his hands. âI misspoke.
âI wonder how the investigation is going, Family Head Tang? If you need my cooperation, I will definitely cooperate fully,â Ji Lutian said seriously. âI have seen all of Zhou Shuâs actions in the Demon Realm. This young man might not be very prudent, but he didnât collude with the Demon Realm and betray the human race.â
âHow can I trust you?â Tang Qianluo said coldly. âWho are you to say that?â
âFamily Head Tang, youâre going overboard,â the man surnamed Zheng, who had come with Ji Lutian, said unhappily. âBrother Ji has personally guaranteed it. Do you not trust him?â
âThatâs right. I just canât trust him,â Tang Qianluo said coldly. âI knew from the beginning that Zhou Shu was chosen by Ji Lutian. But you, Ji Lutian, are not clean yourself. How can the person you chose be clean?
âIf you want me to let Zhou Shu go, then please leave. I wonât let him go until I find out the truth!â
âTang Qianluo!â the man surnamed Zheng shouted, his expression ugly. âDo you know what youâre saying? Brother Ji isnât clean? Open your eyes and take a good look!â
âZheng Chengan!â Tang Qianluoâs expression turned cold. âThis isnât your Sima Grotto-Heaven. If you think you can behave atrociously in my Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, youâre wrong!â
Both of them were emitting powerful auras, like two volcanoes that could erupt at any moment.
Ji Lutian shook his head with a bitter smile. He rubbed his glabella with a headache and said, âBrother Zheng, calm down.â
Then he cupped his hands at Tang Qianluo. âFamily Head Tang, your ideas are different from mine. Itâs reasonable for you to suspect me. This is also why I came.
âIf you suspect me in any way, I will give you an explanation. Itâs the same with Zhou Shu.
âItâs normal for our ideas to be different. But Family Head Tang, weâre all humans, and our ultimate goals are the same. We mustnât hurt each otherâs feelings just because of a misunderstanding.â
âHmph, I wouldnât dare to get close to you.â Tang Qianluo snorted. âIâve already said what I needed to say. If youâre here to drink and catch up with me, I welcome you. If itâs anything else, you can leave now!â
Tang Qianluo flicked his sleeves and opened the door to send them off.
Zheng Chengan was furious. âTang Qianluo, youâre not even giving me this bit of face?â
