Chapter 299 The Mountain Watcher
Swish!
A streak of light flew out from Xiao Qingchen's hand, heading straight for the veiled woman!
Yu Qianqian was startled: "Fellow Daoist Qingchen, you..."
Xiao Qingchen said confidently, "These are common people's possessions, not worthy of being placed alongside my tuition fees."
Yu Qianqian was secretly alarmed; this young man was indeed extraordinary, possessing an exceptionally arrogant air.
The thousands of disciples are all outstanding individuals, top geniuses from various realms who come to learn from them.
The gifts they presented for the apprenticeship ceremony were so exquisite that it would be difficult to find even one ordinary item.
Xiao Qingchen's items are already top-quality, but only top-quality items can be distinguished from ordinary items. When placed among a group of excellent items, they don't stand out as much.
In addition, this young man is proud and arrogant, and he is unwilling to be treated the same as others.
They had no intention of letting anything pass through the hands of servants; they wanted it delivered directly to the Master of the Thousand Machines Furnace.
In such a public setting, one wants to stand out from the crowd.
Not only do you need extraordinary strength, but you also need an invincible mindset.
Yu Qianqian's eyes became misty: "Overbearing."
Hearing this, Xiao Qingchen's previous frustration vanished, and she couldn't help but smile.
Wow.
The old woman remained calm, and with a wave of her sleeve, she tried to stop the stream of light: "Just give me the tuition fee."
She was there to maintain order, how could she allow anyone to cause trouble!
Just as the stream of light was about to disappear into his sleeve, Xiao Qingchen's fingertips twitched.
Whoosh!
The light suddenly made a sharp turn, easily bypassing the old woman and rushing straight at the veiled woman behind her!
Xiao Qingchen said casually, "Such a trivial matter is not worth troubling the instructors."
He maintained a calm demeanor and did not offend any of the Thousand Machines Furnace Master's followers.
But that condescending attitude is unmistakable between the lines.
This is his nature, stemming from the emperor's self-esteem and pride.
The old woman did not show any displeasure, but her eyes became deep: "Master, you do not need to pay tuition, but if you want to pay, please do so to me, lest you go astray."
Xiao Qingchen chuckled lightly, ignoring her.
when!
At that moment, the streak of light that continued its journey was blocked by something else.
A burly man with a scruffy face stood up and laughed loudly: "That's right, the apprenticeship gift should naturally be given to the teacher."
"Master of the Thousand Machines Furnace, this is a Remote Heart Stone that I stole from my old man. Please accept it with gratitude!"
Upon hearing this voice, everyone immediately sat up straight, their faces showing solemnity.
Seeing that the other party had knocked down his Flowing Light and was now vying to be the first to present the gift to the Master of the Thousand Machines Furnace, Xiao Qingchen felt a nameless anger rising in his heart.
He was about to make a move when Yu Qianqian exclaimed in horror, "Don't mess with him!"
"That's Xing Hanhai, the Imperial Prince!"
Xing Hanhai, the son of the Great Emperor, is undoubtedly the most illustrious person in the Jieyuan Prefecture.
If you kill the emperor's disciples, perhaps only other disciples will seek revenge.
But if you offend the Emperor's child, that Great Supreme Being will definitely not let it go!
In addition, he has access to all the resources of an entire realm, all the famous teachers will serve him faithfully, he has countless protectors, and he possesses countless rare treasures.
Each of the imperial princes is incredibly powerful; no one dares to provoke them, and no one can provoke them!
Sure enough, the other cultivators listening to the sermon were discussing among themselves: "I didn't expect that the son of Emperor Xing would also come."
"The cultivation levels of the furnace masters vary, but they all possess the wisdom furnace, and in their respective fields, they may even be stronger than the Great Emperors."
"The Great Emperor perfects his imperial path, but he still needs help from various fields outside of it. There is no conflict."
"What a pity. The imperial prince is so powerful, yet he still comes to listen to lectures. People stronger than you are also more diligent than you. It's truly hopeless."
"The Remote Heart Stone that Emperor Xingzi took can be used to perform puppetry across realms. It is definitely a top-tier treasure. He is truly generous."
"Heh, that young man wanted to show off his skills, but he was suppressed right at the beginning."
Everyone shook their heads, waiting to see the joke.
The male cultivator, who had just felt his limelight stolen, now had a look of mockery in his eyes.
Yu Qianqian also tried to dissuade him: "Fellow Daoist Qingchen, let it go."
Her mother was merely a Great Emperor's War Slave, yet she received preferential treatment from various sects.
No matter which realm the imperial prince goes to, no one dares to cause him to lose a single hair!
Revenge requires a list, but Imperial Punishment only requires coordinates!
Xiao Qingchen showed no sign of backing down; instead, his eyes gleamed with even more arrogance: "Imperial Prince?"
"Heh heh, he's nothing more than my son!"
He was originally the emperor, so isn't the emperor's son his own son?
One son, what's with all the arrogance!
Whoosh!
Xiao Qingchen once again channeled his spiritual power, and the streak of light knocked down Xing Hanhai's sword light, circling back to the front once more.
He proclaimed loudly, "These are the Citroën gloves, please accept them, Master Qianji Furnace!"
Yu Qianqian was shocked, and the surrounding cultivators were also horrified.
How dare he defy the emperor's son!
Moreover, they even brought out Citroën gloves that were just as good as Yaoxin Stone!
Some people know that Xiao Qingchen comes from the Tianyuan Realm.
How dare a realm without even a Great Emperor defy a mere imperial prince!
Swish!
The steel gloves and the teleportation stone flew one after the other into the veiled woman's hands.
She casually raised her slender fingers and accepted it.
Silence reigned; no one dared to speak, only the rapid breathing that rose and fell.
In this round, the imperial prince actually lost to that young man!
"Ha." Xing Hanhai laughed instead of getting angry. "Interesting, very interesting!"
A violent aura ignited around him, and the terrifying pressure was so palpable that everyone present could hardly breathe.
But Xing Hanhai looked down at him and said, "You are brave and resourceful; you deserve to join my ranks!"
The cultivators were taken aback, not expecting that the Emperor's son would not be angry, but instead begin to cherish talent!
To become an advisor to the emperor's son is to have already taken a step towards becoming the emperor's confidant.
Such an excellent opportunity is absolutely impossible to refuse!
Yu Qianqian sighed. Faced with such an olive branch, there was absolutely no way Xiao Qingchen would join her camp again.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Qingchen snorted lightly: "I, Xiao Qingchen, have never learned to bow my head to anyone!"
Yu Qianqian was taken aback, her eyes filled with admiration: "So domineering, truly a dragon among men."
Su Yun suddenly raised his hand: "Brother Qingchen."
Xiao Qingchen quickly lowered his head: "Hey, I'm here."
Yu Qianqian: "..."
After Xiao Qingchen finished speaking, he realized what he had done. He felt extremely uncomfortable, unable to vent his anger.
Su Yun took out a small gourd: "Give this to that bird by the mountain for me."
Xiao Qingchen turned his head and saw a large bird on a tree outside the podium.
This place is rich in spiritual energy and teems with spiritual beasts, so nobody pays any attention to it.
Xiao Qingchen found it amusing; Su Yun was sometimes clever and sometimes naive.
While others were trying to attract the attention of the stove owner, he was thinking about feeding the birds!
Perfect timing! Su Yun had never had any contact with the two women from the Su family before; this was his best opportunity.
Without saying a word, Xiao Qingchen helped throw the gourd out.
Something that flew off the field was certainly not something valuable, and everyone just treated it as trash and didn't care.
Xing Hanhai's eyes flashed with anger at being rejected, but he wasn't about to turn hostile.
He chuckled and said, "You're not bad. You can think about it some more."
Xiao Qingchen provided a stage for Xing Hanhai to also make his appearance in front of the furnace master.
The effect is better when it is done purely by personal means, without relying on family background.
Although it wasn't the first to arrive, it was still pretty much there and acceptable.
But at that moment, the veiled woman stood up and bowed slightly to the old woman: "The mountain gate is open. We have finished our duties and will now take our leave."
