Chapter 1802: Skyfire City
Chapter 1802: Skyfire City
"You don't have to doubt it."
Xie Su continued, "Although a senior in the Xie family was a cardinal of the Martial Pavilion when I was a disciple, there is no such thing as a backdoor. Even though I am the chief master of the Martial Pavilion now, the Xie family still has to follow the rules."
"For example, the most outstanding young man of this generation in the Xie family should be Xie Ru, who is currently training in the Xueyue Martial Arts Pavilion."
"It's impossible for him to return to the imperial capital before he becomes a high-ranking Grandmaster."
Feng Daozi nodded, looked at the information in his hand and said, "So why didn't you choose to return to the imperial capital after being promoted to a high-level master?"
"He even stayed in the Skyfire Martial Pavilion for nearly two hundred years, and only returned to the Martial Pavilion headquarters after being promoted to the Ninth Rank."
"And after returning to Wu Pavilion headquarters, you became the Chief Pavilion Master after serving as Vice Pavilion Master for three years. This is very strange. A force as large as Wu Pavilion must be very cautious in selecting a Chief Pavilion Master. There are many complicated procedures. Even if your identity as the successor is confirmed, you will be informed at least twenty years in advance."
"Under normal circumstances, you should have returned to headquarters to begin preparations for the appointment of the Chief Pavilion Master. You can't continue to stay in the branch. This is not in line with the rules of your Wu Pavilion."
Xie Su smiled lightly and said:
"Normally, that's true."
"The core disciples selected by the Wu Pavilion headquarters will be sent to various branches for training. After being promoted to high-level masters, they can choose to return, but they can also choose not to return. As long as they can become the master of the four major branches, they can still become a cardinal."
"As for the Chief Master of the Martial Pavilion, there are usually three candidates. One person will be eliminated in the fiftieth year, and the second in the seventieth year."
"So I knew thirty years in advance that I would become the Chief of the Martial Pavilion. At that time, the headquarters really wanted me to come back, otherwise it would affect my position as Chief of the Pavilion."
"I wanted to explain why I couldn't go back immediately, but it seemed like the headquarters didn't want to hear my explanation."
"I was also warned that I had to return to headquarters within a short period of time."
"Otherwise, you will cancel my status as heir."
Having said that, a confident look appeared on Xie Su's face, as if he was recalling his heroic days.
"My answer at the time was that if I wanted to go back, I would naturally go back. If you have any objections, then I can resign from the position of Chief Pavilion Master. If you still have objections, then you can have your own opinions. It has nothing to do with me."
At this moment, Xie Su had a feeling of being high-spirited, and the confidence on his face seemed innate. This was the confidence he had gained from being the number one genius in the martial arts world for hundreds of years, and also the confidence he had gained from being the number one master in the martial arts world for more than a hundred years.
Yun Chen, who was standing by, seemed to recall something and continued, "I did hear similar rumors that Xie Su was going to quit the Martial Pavilion, and I sent people to investigate."
"I just know that this matter was resolved quickly."
Mo Yuan said: "The Wu Pavilion headquarters did not expect Xie Su to be so strong, and finally chose to compromise."
"They can't afford to lose a talent like Xie Su."
"No matter how absolute the rules are, they must make way for peerless geniuses. Even the Wu Pavilion is no exception."
Seeing this scene, Feng Daozi secretly praised Xie Su in his heart. After the ancient war, he called those who could become a master in less than a hundred years as super geniuses.
Xie Su is undoubtedly one of them.
And he went the furthest among them.
Because many super geniuses failed to even reach the ninth rank due to various reasons.
In Feng Daozi's judgment, judging from the talent Xie Su has shown now, if he can break through to the late ninth rank, then his speed of becoming a Venerable will be about eighty years.
This made Feng Daozi feel a little conflicted.
Xie Su, who was full of confidence just now, reduced his suspicion of him a little. It didn't seem like he was pretending. This kind of person did not fit the profile of a traitor.
But judging by the speed at which traitors have risen to power in sixty-five years, he only needs to cover it up a little.
The talent revealed is exactly the same as Xie Su's.
So Feng Daozi still hasn't let go of Xie Su.
The most important point is that the timelines are too consistent. Strength can be hidden and emotions can be disguised.
But some things really happened.
This cannot be changed.
Three years after the end of the Eternal Silence Abyss, Xie Su was promoted to the ninth rank.
Twenty-five years after the end of the Time Tribulation, Xie Su was promoted to the middle stage of the ninth rank.
With the emergence of the two great ruins, even if Xie Su was not the one who benefited the most from them, he was definitely one of them.
More importantly, Xie Su stayed in Tianhuo Wu Pavilion for too long, about three hundred years.
In the past three hundred years, even if he had not deliberately looked for him, Feng Daozi was sure that Xie Su must have accidentally entered the three secret realms.
The Star God and the Moon God must have noticed this super genius early on, as to whether there was any further contact between the two.
No one knows at the moment except the two of them.
This is the reason why Feng Daozi can never let go of Xie Su.
The previous talent issues, the bad atmosphere in the martial arts pavilion, and Xie Su's selfish character are not the key issues.
If Xie Su is a traitor, all of this makes sense. If Xie Su is not a traitor, this also makes sense.
The key point is that Xie Su is the person who is most likely to become a traitor in the open. Whether he is a traitor or not is entirely a game of mentality with the Star God and the Moon God.
"So why didn't you want to go back then?"
Feng Daozi asked. In fact, the answer is no longer important now. Whether Xie Su is a traitor or not, the answer will be very reasonable and there will be nothing wrong with it.
This is true.
Xie Su explained.
The reason why Tianhuo City is called Tianhuo City is because the temperature is very high all year round and there is no winter throughout the year.
As for what the reason is.
Many experts have given explanations.
But the fundamental reason is that Tianhuo City was built on a relic called Tianhuo Pool.
The Tianhuo Pool is located underground in Tianhuo City and continuously emits heat, so the average temperature of Tianhuo City is much higher than that of other cities.
Although the Sky Fire Pool is a relic, it has been explored many times and there is no opportunity to obtain it directly.
Why do I say that? Because the only opportunity in the Sky Fire Pool is that there is a trace of the original power of fire in the constantly emitted heat. This original power cannot be absorbed, but if you live here for a long time, there are still many benefits, especially for the cultivation of the master of fire attribute.
For those who are poisoned by cold or sinister poisons, the original power of fire can naturally restrain such toxins.
To give a very simple example, if Shangguan Yi’s mutant attribute is her first attribute, ice attribute.
Then she would definitely choose to live in Tianhuo City. Although it cannot cure the disease completely, it can definitely greatly alleviate the symptoms.
Why did Xie Su insist on staying in Tianhuo City?
According to him, his fellow Taoist suffered from a very serious cold poison, and the only way to cure it was with the original power of fire attribute. However, there was no ninth-grade master of fire attribute in the world at that time, so it was impossible to cure it.
He can only survive by living in Tianhuo City.
"It was not until she died that I chose to leave Skyfire City."
Xie Su said with a serious expression.
Mo Yuan and Yun Chen also confirmed this. It was not a secret back then, at least not to them.
