Chapter 436 Different When he yelled like this, the elders in charge of each faction felt that a bug had sneaked into the group of good people, and everyone else was fine, only you had a lot of problems. But they are crying out for injustice under the identity of the weapon refining industry. What they want to ask is, are you from the weapon refining industry? Don’t you have any idea? But then again, after the commotion in the Divine Fire Region, the elders had to admit that this guy was not like ordinary people. Plus, the people from the Observatory were waiting for this guy. Anyway, it's not easy to move, but I'm unwilling to not move. I want to pry the secret out of this guy's mouth. In short, he is a guy who makes people feel complicated. Upon hearing this, the elders in charge also glanced at the people who were queuing up for inspection. The disciples of various sects who were swept by their gazes all acted as if they were saying, "I didn't say that. I am not included in the so-called 'many people said'." The elders did not refute Shi Chun's words. After all, he was not talking nonsense and what he said did make sense. What others say makes sense, so it's not good not to respond. If we don't respond, wouldn't it mean that we just want to be unfair? So an elder casually said, "You worry too much. You will have reasonable considerations."

Well, since they said so, Shi Chun couldn't say anything more for the time being. Anyway, he had already expressed his opinion. If there was no response, he could raise his voice even louder. He stopped talking at this point, bowed to the elders, turned around and waved everyone away. Except for Tong Mingshan who roughly understood the intention of the headmaster, everyone else, including Young Master Nan and his group, were somewhat confused, wondering what Shi Chun meant by picking this up... "Four? Are you sure it's four?" At the temporary residence in Shudao Mountain, after listening to the report of Elder Tu Wenjing, Gu Yanduo asked questions one after another in disbelief. Not only him, but the others around him were also full of disbelief. Elder Tu Wenjing expected everyone's reaction. He smiled bitterly and said to everyone, "I also thought it was a mistake. Not only did I personally operate the 'Fire Soul Yuan Guang Mirror' to check Tong Mingshan, I also personally pressed Tong Mingshan to cast a spell to check. Not only me, but other sects have also repeatedly confirmed it. There is no mistake. It is four flowers." After a short silence, Gu Yanduo said to the disciple guarding the door, "Go and call Gu Lianni." "Yes." The disciple at the door took the order and left. Not long after, Gu Lianni came quickly and bowed to the senior executives in a proper manner after entering. Gu Yanduo gave Elder Tu a signal, so Elder Tu told Gu Lianni about the inspection of Tong Mingshan again. After hearing this, Gu Lianni stared and exclaimed: "How is this possible?" Gu Yanduo: "The problem is, this is the situation now. Let me ask you, can you confirm the amount of divine fire that Tong Mingshan absorbed?" Gu Lianni wanted to say that she was sure, but she didn't dare to guarantee it when the words came to her lips. After all, Elder Tu had said that. After thinking for a while, she hesitated and said, "I saw him take the divine fire into the cave to absorb it, and he came out with empty hands. If he didn't absorb it, could it be that he failed to absorb it? Shi Chun also exchanged different divine fires with us. The number must be ten." Then he asked everyone, "Is it possible that the divine fire could fail to absorb?" Everyone hesitated and thought for a long time, and Gu Yanduo said in deep thought: "There are definitely cases of failure in absorption. We are used to estimating based on our own fire-based skills, but we are not sure about the success rate of those small sects' fire-based skills in absorbing the divine fire. Especially since Tong Mingshan was expelled from the sect, the completeness of his skills is also a question. Speaking of which, the low probability of small sects absorbing the divine fire, I wonder if it is related to the success rate in this aspect." For now, no one else can give an answer to this statement. Elder Tu said, "No matter what, I can guarantee that there are definitely only four divine fires in Tong Mingshan's body. Besides, I am the only one who is blind, but it is not possible that all the elders of the ten major sects are blind. Even if he has a way to hide it, he must show it during the competition if he wants to win. We can all see it then. As long as he shows it, if he has more than ten, we can still judge him as violating the rules according to the rules. If he doesn't show it, he won't be able to win." Another elder nodded and said, "That's right. Tong Mingshan and the others should also know this. In other words, it is possible that Tong Mingshan only absorbed four flowers." As they spoke, everyone's eyes were fixed on Gu Lianni's face, and Gu Lianni really could not find any reason to refute, because she really had no idea what was going on. She personally thought that it was impossible for there to be only four flowers, but the reality was before her. "Elder Tu is right." Gu Yanduo first clarified the situation, and then said to his daughter: "Your cooperative relationship with Shi Chun and others has been disturbed, but you can still interact normally. It is reasonable for you to visit them. You might as well go and ask Shi Chun what's going on in person."

Gu Lianni was happy with this and agreed immediately, "Okay, I'll go right away." After saying this, he bowed to everyone and turned to leave. Gu Yanduo stopped him and said, "Whether he wants to tell you about the origin of the thing in his hand or not is one thing, but it doesn't stop you from trying to ask. Everything can be negotiated. He can propose any conditions, as long as we in Shudao Mountain can do it." Elder Tu and others nodded slightly when they heard this. They naturally knew what the thing in Shi Chun's hand was referring to. They felt that this was also where they were ahead of other sects. "Yes." Gu Lianni took the order and left. After watching him leave, an elder said, "If Mulan hadn't suddenly intervened today, fearing that the boy was involved with the demon sect, I'm afraid all the sects would have rushed to contact him." Gu Yanduo: "I hope he can get past Mulan Jin. If he can't get past that, it would be fine if he can figure out where that thing came from before that." The Mingshan Sect was also keeping an eye on the amount of divine fire absorbed by other sects. It's not that I care too much. Since I am determined to win the championship, it's always good to know the situation of others. In this regard, I still have to rely on Master Nan. He has some ways to find out the information. However, the news he received made Shi Chun a little puzzled. The results of the tests conducted by various sects so far basically showed that all of them had absorbed one divine fire. Apart from that, there was only one that absorbed two and one that absorbed four. The one with four flowers is naturally Tong Mingshan. Among the people from the ten major factions who registered to take part in the competition, not many have participated in the inspection so far. What does it mean? Just when I was confused, Xiao Sheng, who was guarding the door, came over to report that Gu Lianni had arrived. When guests come, especially old acquaintances, it is natural to invite them. Not only Gu Lianni came, Yuan Yao also came. The welcoming Shi Chun laughed and joked, "Big girl, Brother Yuan, what brings you here?" Is it easy to call her "big girl"? Why do you still call her that after she comes out? Gu Lianni raised her eyebrows, put her hands on her hips and said provocatively, "Why, you are not welcome?" "That's not the case." Shi Chun happily stretched out his hand and invited the guest in. When they sat down in the hall, there was nothing to serve the guests. Gu Lianni didn't need any hospitality and wanted to get straight to the point, but she found that Young Master Nan had also come in to eavesdrop. She was in a dilemma and just kept on being perfunctory and polite, saying things like how she regretted not listening to Shi Chun, which led to her being held hostage by the Liantian Sect's gang. Later, Shi Chun got back to the point and asked, "Do you two have any instructions for me?" He didn't believe that the other party would repent for those bad things in the past. Gu and Yuan looked at each other, and then looked at Master Nan, both of them looking as if they wanted to say something but hesitated. Well, Master Nan understood, he was redundant again, and he had never been disliked so many times in one day in his life. He smiled and said, "You guys chat," and left wisely. Wu Jinliang chuckled twice as he watched them leave. Of course, he didn't need to go out. Without anyone around, Gu Lianni didn't sit down anymore. She stood up and rushed to Shi Chun to ask, "I heard that Tong Mingshan only absorbed four divine fires. What's going on?" Shi Chun spread his hands and said, "What else can it be? I have already absorbed four divine fires." Gu Lianni glared and said, "Impossible. From what I saw, he absorbed almost ten flowers. And now you tell me only four?"

Shi Chun said unhappily, "Miss, you have been a disciple of a big sect for a long time, and have been in heaven for a long time. You don't know the sufferings of the world, right? Can the fire-based skills that Tong Mingshan practices be compared with those of your Shu Daoshan? He was expelled from the sect halfway, and he only practiced half of the fire-based skills. How can his success rate in absorbing the divine fire be that high?" Is that really the case? Gu Lianni and Yuan Yao looked at each other in bewilderment. Later, she was still unwilling to give up, so Gu Lianni rolled up her sleeves and ran out in a hurry again. Regardless of the difference between men and women, she went to the yard and grabbed Tong Mingshan directly, and cast a spell to investigate. Tong Mingshan looked towards Shi Chun, only to see Shi Chun standing at the door of the hall winking at him. Later, Gu Lianni silently put down her hand, looked at Tong Mingshan again, showing a look of heartache, then turned and left, hurried back to the hall, fidgeting and turning around. Shi Chun walked in and asked, "You are like an ant on a hot pot. What's wrong?" Gu Lianni slapped her butt and complained, "What a waste! You have so many divine fires, but you only managed to absorb four. You are too wasteful. If you had known earlier, you should have given them to me." Yuan Yao also shook his head and sighed. He even had the urge to beat up Shi Chun. But Shi Chun said calmly, "If we don't waste them, I'm afraid we won't be able to absorb even four flowers." "You..." Gu Lianni pointed at his nose and finally waved her hand. Shi Chun: "Four is enough. Although our sect master is not good at absorbing divine fire, his talent for refining weapons is rare in the world, and may not be worse than yours." This has nothing to do with talent in refining equipment. Gu Lianni felt so painful that she didn't want to talk to him anymore. Shi Chun suddenly changed the subject, "Speaking of the amount of divine fire absorbed, by the way, why didn't you accept the inspection of the various sects? Don't say you didn't plan to participate in the competition." "Once the rules are out, they must be followed. No one can escape. It's not good for disciples from big sects to rush to line up and waste other people's time. We will go later." Gu Lianni responded casually, but she knew in her heart that these rules were applicable to other people, especially the Mingshan Sect in front of her. As for the ten major sects, they had already reached a consensus and would only be inspected before the competition began. As he spoke, he winked at Yuan Yao. Yuan Yao immediately went to close the door of the hall. After covering up for a while, Gu Lianni didn't beat around the bush in front of Shi Chun. She knew that this guy was very slippery and it was useless to beat around the bush. She whispered directly, "Where did you get the 'Fire God Incense'?" They were so close that Shi Chun could smell her body odor. He looked at her for a few more seconds and asked playfully, "Why should I tell you?" Gu Lianni: "You are a smart person. You should know that a man is innocent but guilty of possessing a treasure. I won't say more. You can set the conditions and we can discuss." Shi Chun blinked and suddenly said with emotion: "Since you know that a man is innocent but guilty of possessing a treasure, you should know that I just want to protect myself now. Can you, Shu Daoshan, protect me?" Gu Lianni thought for a moment and said, "The Star Observatory wants to look for you. Did you know about this?" Shi Chun: “I know.” Gu Lianni: "That's good to know. As long as you don't get involved in the devil's way and as long as you can pass the Stargazing Pavilion, I, Shudaoshan, will protect you." Shi Chun: "How to protect it?" Gu Lianni said sternly: "You can join my Shudao Mountain. As long as you become my Shudao Mountain disciple and hide in my Shudao Mountain, other weapon-refining sects will not be able to do anything to you." When she said this, there was a hint of desire in her eyes. She had seen Shi Chun's abilities and had long wished that Shi Chun was a disciple of Shudao Mountain. Her father was the head of the sect, and joining in would also serve their family. Shi Chun laughed and said, "If you cross the river and destroy the bridge, I can't do anything to you." Gu Lianni: "How can you feel at ease?"

Shi Chun's eyes were full of provocation, and he said shockingly: "You become my woman! We have already done what we want, and the head of your sect has announced that I am his son-in-law. Only then can I rest assured, what do you think?" After hearing these words, Gu Lianni was stunned, and Yuan Yao was also stunned. "Hehehehe." Wu Jinliang laughed again, his eyes looking back and forth at Gu Lianni. Gu Lianni's cheeks gradually turned red as she stared at Shi Chun. She bit her lips with silver teeth as if she wanted to curse him. Finally, she turned to the side and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter." Shi Chun asked curiously, "What are you here to talk about?" So Gu Lianni looked at Yuan Yao and said, "Go back and report. I'll wait for your reply." "Hmm? Oh, okay." Yuan Yao came to his senses and immediately turned around and left. Who knew that before he had taken two steps, Shi Chun quickly reached out to stop him, saying, "It's just a joke, don't take it seriously, Brother Yuan, I was just joking." He just wanted to test and confirm how much price Shudaoshan could pay. He didn't know, but Gu Lianni must have known. As soon as Gu Lianni showed this attitude, he knew what was going on. How could he really marry Gu Lianni? They were not a good match, and he didn't want the excitement of that. "Huh?" Yuan Yao stopped, stunned. He wanted to ask the other party, what are you doing? Is this something you can joke about? Gu Lianni tilted her mouth and chin, slightly bared her teeth, and stared at Shi Chun with an embarrassed and annoyed look on her face. Shi Chun quickly bowed his hands to apologize, then he cleared his throat and regained his composure, saying, "Wait a moment, both of you. I can't make the decision on this matter alone. I'll go discuss it with my brothers and give you a reply. Wait a moment." Then he immediately opened the door and ran away as if escaping. There was nothing he could do because Gu Lianni's eyes looked murderous. The people in the yard outside also noticed something was wrong. They felt that the boss's awkward and hurried look was a little strange. And Wu Jinliang, who was running behind him, had an obvious smirk on his face and was whispering something in the boss's ear. "I think this woman is not bad." These are the exact words Wu Jinliang muttered quietly. Shi Chun sneered softly, "If you have money, you can have any woman." "That's true." Wu Jinliang agreed deeply. Shi Chun walked to the room on the side and greeted everyone, "Sect Master, Brother Nan, come here." Tong Mingshan immediately walked over quickly, and Master Nan, who was bored, naturally followed suit. Several people entered the small room. As soon as the door was closed, Shi Chun took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone from a table and said to Tong Mingshan, "Look at what materials are needed to repair those magic weapons. Just write them down." Tong Mingshan knew that he was talking about the magic weapons that were damaged by lightning, and said with a bitter face: "With my level, I'm afraid it will take me a long time to study it slowly before I can understand it." Where is the time to study slowly? Shi Chun thought for a moment and changed his words: "Well, think about what materials you will need to refine weapons in the future. Any valuable or expensive ones, just list them out." Since Tong Mingshan is willing to follow him, he can't waste all the divine fire absorbed by Tong Mingshan. He must take this opportunity to help Tong Mingshan get enough materials. Tong Mingshan was suddenly confused. It happened so suddenly that he had no idea what to do. Wu Jin's mouth was stretched to his ears. Shi Chun turned to Master Nan and said, "Brother Nan, we are short-sighted and don't know how much valuable things there are. You have seen the world, so please help our leader make a list." Young Master Nan spread his hands, "No, you are so irrational. I don't even understand what's going on. I don't even know how to start a conversation. How can I help you?" Shi Chun said bluntly: "It's nothing. Those sects want the secret method of finding the sacred fire in my hand. I can tell them, but I can't tell them for nothing. They have to exchange something for it. Please help me estimate the price. Estimate how much those sects are willing to pay. The kind that is substantial but not excessive. Please help me make a list." Master Nan said "oh", and he understood what was said, and knew how to start. He tilted his head and looked at Shi Chunle for a while, then stroked his mustache and thought about it, and soon turned to Tong Mingshan and instructed: "Come on, write down the refining materials you need first, let's make a draft first..."

This discussion took a while, but Gu Lianni, who was standing at the door of the hall with a sullen face, did not lose her patience. Yuan Yao paced back and forth on the steps with his head down. After working for almost half an incense stick of time, Tong Mingshan, who was sitting and writing, put down his pen. Young Master Nan, who was watching from the side with one hand on his waist and the other on the table, stood up happily. "Okay, Chuntian, the amount of this list should satisfy you and make Shu Daoshan happy. See if you want to add anything." Shi Chun, who was walking back and forth with his arms folded, had heard the discussion between the two people. He had already added that what he wanted was very practical, just more money. He waved his hand and said, "That's enough. Don't go too far. It won't be fun if it hurts people. Well, Sect Master, please make eight more copies of the list." Tong Mingshan was stunned. Young Master Nan was also puzzled, "What do you mean?" Shi Chun: "Aren't these the top ten sects in the weapon refining world? They all have the right to speak. It would be inappropriate to give it to one and not the other." Young Master Nan also had this guess, but he still didn't understand, "It's the Ten Great Sects for sure, if we copy eight more copies, it will be nine." Shi Chun: "Forget about the Liantian Sect. They won't give it to you even if you copy it." Wu Jinliang chuckled like an old fox. So that’s it. Tong Mingshan understood and immediately started copying it down. Young Master Nan said "oh", looked at the rapid writing, shook his head and said, "Chun Tian, ​​our ways of making money are different, very different, very different. I make money that others are willing to give, but you force others to give, which is highly suspected of robbery. Selling the same thing to nine stores, are you sure you can swallow it?"
