170: The Martial Emperor tried to recruit Yu Xiu as a servant?

“Consider yourself smart!”

The elderly man leading the group couldn't help but let out a cold snort when he saw Old Master Chu retreat. Then, the four of them stepped aside, panting heavily.

“Grandpa…”

Chu Tianjiao came to Old Master Chu’s side, about to say something, but was cut off: “I know what you want to say, but now is not the time. Yu Xiu’s Foundation is not yet stable; we cannot cause him trouble.”

Too many people were involved in the events of that year, and now decades have passed.

Those with Talent comparable to his back then have probably already achieved a Breakthrough to Martial Emperor, or even reached Martial Saint.

Although Yu Xiu is now a Martial Emperor, his improvement is indeed unprecedented, but he is ultimately only at Martial Emperor strength.

Since he had already endured for decades, Chu Yunzhang was not afraid to wait a few more years.

As long as Yu Xiu is not completely drawn into his affairs, Yu Xiu will have enough time to develop. In the future, let alone Martial Saint, he has a great chance of becoming a Martial God.

“I understand, Grandpa!”

Chu Tianjiao nodded and said no more, walking to the side.

At this moment.

Because of Old Master Chu's action, everyone present truly witnessed Old Master Chu's strength, which shocked many people.

They only knew that Old Master Chu of Qin Province was very powerful, but they didn't know how powerful he was. Now they completely understood.

Their gazes towards Old Master Chu were filled with respect and awe.

“Yu Xiu, Chu Yunzhang is indeed very powerful, but he is ultimately only at Martial King strength. You must know that Martial Emperor and Martial King are worlds apart.”

The elderly man leading the Administration Bureau had recovered at this point and looked at Yu Xiu, saying: “I’m not afraid to tell you, a hundred Martial Kings are absolutely no match for one Martial Emperor.”

“Moreover, as you saw just now, Chu Yunzhang has the Chu Family as a restraint. He cannot truly fight to the death.”

“Once he dies, the entire Chu Family will cease to exist in an instant.”

“If you want to rely on Chu Yunzhang to block the Martial Emperor’s wrath, I can only say that your plan will likely fail.”

“We came here for your safety, so you should listen to us and apologize to the other party!”

As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers understood the specific situation, and many revealed an expression of 'as expected'.

They had already guessed that the Western Secret Realm City had sent a Martial Emperor, definitely to target Yu Xiu.

Now, hearing the words of the elderly man from the Administration Bureau, they completely understood.

At the same time.

They also felt a sense of lament for Yu Xiu’s predicament.

At this moment.

No one in the entire venue spoke.

Everyone was silently watching Yu Xiu, waiting for his answer.

“Apologize?”

At this moment, Yu Xiu spoke.

And his Face also carried a hint of mockery.

This action also caused all the onlookers to secretly shake their heads and sigh.

Ultimately, he was still too young and impetuous.

They thought Yu Xiu was too foolish.

Between life and Face, a fool knows which is more important.

As the saying goes, a true man knows when to yield and when to stand firm; as long as there are green mountains, there will be wood to burn.

But Yu Xiu, of all people, did not understand these things.

“What is he?”

“Is he worthy of me, Yu Xiu, apologizing?”

Yu Xiu’s tone was icy, and everyone present suddenly widened their eyes.

Good heavens.

This was a rhythm of courting death!

Not apologizing was one thing.

He even dared to insult and provoke a Martial Emperor.

At this moment.

Not only the surrounding onlookers but also the four people from the Administration Bureau did not understand.

They couldn't comprehend where Yu Xiu got the courage to publicly insult a Martial Emperor.

Was it just because of his Martial King strength?

Or was it because of his identity as China’s youngest Martial King?

Or something else?

But no matter what.

The four from the Administration Bureau all believed Yu Xiu’s actions were extremely foolish.

Currently, outside the entire ruin.

Only Old Master Chu and his group still maintained a calm demeanor.

Because they knew Yu Xiu was a Martial Emperor, and such a young Martial Emperor at that.

Coupled with his immense Talent, and the Cultivation Technique and Martial Skill brought from the Qiusuo Realm.

Yu Xiu indeed had the arrogance and qualification to say such words.

Of course.

Old Master Chu still didn't know that Yu Xiu's true backing was Little Zi, that Source of Qi brought from the Qiusuo Realm.

“You, you are simply foolish.”

“Beyond saving.”

The elderly man leading the Administration Bureau pointed at Yu Xiu, and after a long pause, he cursed out two sentences.

“Do you know the consequences of this?”

“I admit your Talent is extraordinary, but the gap between Martial King and Martial Emperor is immense, one in the heavens, one on the earth.”

“Although we came with a mission, you are now seeking your own death. We can do nothing. Afterward, even if the higher-ups blame us, we have already done our best.”

Yu Xiu gave a cold smile, disdainfully glanced at the other party, then turned his head to look not far away, saying: “You’ve been watching for so long, isn’t it time to step out?”

Everyone followed Yu Xiu’s gaze and found that Yu Xiu was looking at the Martial Emperor elder sent by the Western Secret Realm City.

The other party had silver hair, but his gaze was unusually sharp.

Everyone present felt a sense of not daring to look him directly in the eye, and they all averted their gazes.

Despite this, everyone present still felt a storm brewing in their hearts.

Yu Xiu was trying to provoke a Martial Emperor in front of him.

In their opinion, if the Martial Emperor became angry, Yu Xiu would be completely finished.

“Interesting!”

The Martial Emperor elder smiled faintly and arrived not far from Yu Xiu in two or three steps.

This technique of shrinking the ground into an inch stunned everyone watching.

Is this a Martial Emperor?

It's terrifying.

“Mere parlor tricks!”

In the eyes of the onlookers, the Martial Emperor’s technique was terrifying.

But in Yu Xiu’s eyes, it was merely the use of the Martial Emperor’s super-fast speed.

Although the naked eye saw only two or three steps, he actually took many steps, and none of this escaped Yu Xiu's eyes.

“Hmph!”

“Young people should be more modest.”

The Martial Emperor had clearly heard Yu Xiu’s words and was very displeased. He couldn't help but let out a cold snort: “Although your strength and Talent are very strong, they are just decent.”

“Inside the Secret Realm City, and even deeper in the No Mans Land, there are many young Prodigies with greater Talent and strength than you.”

“Young Martial Gods are everywhere in the No Mans Land, and Divine Apostles are as numerous as cattle hair.”

“Your small Talent is fine for showing off in China, but outside, you are just slightly stronger than ordinary people. Ultimately, you are nothing but a frog in a well.”

When this Martial Emperor said these words, everyone watching was shocked.

They knew that the younger generation in Secret Realm City was strong, but they never expected them to be this strong.

Yu Xiu, a seventeen-year-old Martial King, was only an ordinary young Prodigy.

To what extent would those young Martial Gods be powerful?

They dared not even imagine it.

“Yu Xiu!”

This Martial Emperor also noticed the changes in the expressions of the surrounding onlookers and smiled with satisfaction in his heart.

His goal had been achieved, and now he could proceed with his recruitment.

“Yu Xiu, considering your excellent Talent, as long as you are willing to become a servant of our Family, this old man guarantees that in the future, you will also have the chance to become a true young Prodigy.”

“Although this old man cannot guarantee to make you a young Martial God, at least I can let you stand on equal footing with those young Prodigies and become a figure like them.”

As soon as these words were spoken.

Old Master Chu, who had been silent, suddenly couldn't help but burst out laughing, and his laughter grew louder and more unrestrained.

This left everyone watching utterly dumbfounded.

On the other hand, the Martial Emperor’s Face was now grim, and he looked sullen.

He secretly cursed in his heart: “How did I forget about this old fellow?”
