Pingyang Town is one of the many small towns under the jurisdiction of Canglang City, and it also belongs to the Daqi Kingdom.
At this time, a group of cavalry was slowly walking into the town. The leader was wearing armor and had a resolute face. He was Cao Gang, one of the five wolf guards in Canglang City.
The other person is a young man with handsome features, wearing a green shirt, with a bookish air all over his body.
The young man's name was Su Zimo, the second son of the Su family in Pingyang Town. He had already passed the high school examination at the age of seventeen and was famous far and wide.
"Second Young Master Su is different from the scholars Cao has met in the past. Although he looks weak, his riding skills are excellent and he is not weaker than Cao's guards." Cao Gang said.
"Lord Cao, you are exaggerating." Su Zimo smiled slightly, "My eldest brother has been in the horse trading business. I have been with horses since I was a child, so I have some foundation. What's more, Zhui Feng is quite spiritual."
With that said, Su Zimo patted the horse beneath him.
The horse called "Chasing the Wind" seemed to understand Su Zimo's compliment, and he raised his head and snorted, with a hint of agility in his eyes.
At this moment, there was a commotion nearby, and someone shouted: "It's terrible, I heard that the girl from the Shen family was chosen by the immortals and is going to worship the immortals."
"A girl from the Shen family? Which Shen family?"
"That's Shen Mengqi, the one who discussed marriage with Second Young Master Su."
The news spread very quickly, and people around him had already started talking. Many people looked at Su Zimo with strange eyes.
"Immortal?" Su Zimo murmured softly. His knowledge of immortals still remained in those vague legends.
Can human power control the wind and rain, burn the sky and boil the sea
Su Zimo didn't believe that there were immortals in this world without seeing it with his own eyes.
When he heard the word 'immortal', Cao Gang trembled, his expression was different, and a trace of fear flashed deep in his eyes, but Su Zimo frowned in thought and did not notice it.
At this moment, a rainbow light suddenly flashed in the sky at an extremely fast speed. It just passed over the heads of Su Zimo and others, but then turned back and stopped in mid-air.
People subconsciously looked up and saw three people standing in the void without any support, as if there was an invisible force supporting them.
Su Zimo's expression changed slightly.
Immortal!
This kind of method is simply not something that people in the mortal world can understand and touch.
"The gods appeared..."
"Ask the immortal for blessing!"
The dense crowd around him almost all kneeled down on the ground in unison, looking in awe and praying.
Cao Gang's movements were also very fast. He turned over and dismounted, knelt on his knees, and shouted loudly: "Cao Gang, a mortal citizen of Canglang City, pays homage to the immortal!"
Cao Gang's actions shocked Su Zimo.
As one of the five great wolf guards, Cao Gang had overwhelming power within hundreds of miles of Canglang City, but even he did not hesitate to kneel to the ground when he saw the immortal.
In the blink of an eye, Su Zimo stood on horseback like a chicken standing out from the crowd, looking extremely dazzling in the dark and kneeling crowd.
Pressure is everywhere!
Su Zimo was silent for a while, jumped down from Zhui Feng, and looked up.
In mid-air, the man in the middle was wearing a turquoise-colored robe, with an indifferent expression. His narrow eyes looked down at the people at his feet, and there was a sense of pride that overcame all things in his brows.
Next to the man in green robes stood a man and a woman, both from Pingyang Town. The man's name was Zhou Dingyun. He was a notorious rogue in the town. He bullied men and women and committed all kinds of evil. He was sent to prison by Su Zimo two years ago. The prison was now brought out by the green-robed man.
Su Zimo frowned slightly. With Zhou Dingyun's character, would he have a chance to join the Immortal Sect? If Zhou Dingyun becomes an immortal, how many people will suffer
Su Zimo turned his eyes and looked at the girl in mid-air.
The girl's name is Shen Mengqi, she is in her prime of life, her skin is as good as snow, and she has a gentle temperament in her bones.
Through Shen Mengqi's eyes, Su Zimo knew her thoughts.
The agreement they had made became vulnerable in the face of the legendary immortal fate. Su Zimo never imagined that the two would meet like this again.
One is high above, the other is standing in the world.
Shen Mengqi was also looking at Su Zimo, looking at the man she once admired so much.
Once, in her heart, Su Zimo was omnipotent. He was enlightened at the age of three, proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics at the age of seven, passed the scholar examination at the age of twelve, and passed the examination at the age of seventeen. This kind of genius was unprecedented in Da Qi, and he would definitely be able to do it in the future. A very human minister.
Due to the obstruction of the eldest son of the Su family, Su Zimo never learned martial arts, but Shen Mengqi believed that if Su Zimo learned martial arts, he could also become a general and become a marquis.
But now, Shen Mengqi realized that she was wrong.
These achievements of Su Zimo only belong to the mortal world after all, and are not worth mentioning in the eyes of immortals.
With just one opportunity, she already had the qualification to look down on Su Zimo.
"Mortal, why don't you kneel down!"
This question suddenly exploded in Su Zimo's ears like thunder, making him dizzy, his limbs weak, and he almost collapsed on the ground.
Facing the legendary immortal, it was okay to kneel on the ground, but the green-robed man's almost bullying attitude aroused the injustice in Su Zimo's heart!
This injustice came from the determination in Shen Mengqi's eyes, from the doubts about the immortal's choice of disciples, and even more from the pride in Su Zimo's bones.
Su Zimo took a deep breath, suppressed the annoyance in his chest, and said loudly: "I have a great reputation, and I won't kneel down when I see the King of Qi. Why should I kneel to you!"
You want me to kneel down, but I won’t!
The so-called fame is, of course, just Su Zimo's rhetoric.
Under the fierce aura of the green-robed man, the surrounding mortals were as silent as a cicada, not even daring to raise their heads. However, Su Zimo faced off against the immortal in a mortal body, and his momentum was not weak at all.
"They are indeed ignorant ordinary people."
The green-robed man's mouth was slightly raised, his eyes were cold, and he said calmly: "In this case, your fame... will be invalidated from today on."
Although the tone was calm, no one questioned it.
The green-robed man continued: "Any princely country that dares to accept this person as an official is an enemy of my master, Canglang of Bixia Palace!"
Hearing the words "Bixia Palace, Master Canglang", Cao Gang, who was kneeling on the ground, showed a look of horror, and quickly responded with a trembling voice: "Don't worry, Master, as long as he stays in our country of Daqi, Su Zimo will be a subordinate all his life." Wait for the untouchables!”
A lifelong lowly pariah!
In just a few words, Su Zimo's fate was decided.
A trace of unbearability flashed across Shen Mengqi's eyes, but the rogue Zhou Dingyun looked excited.
Su Zimo looked calm and didn't seem to be affected.
After a while, Su Zimo smiled mockingly, "This fame is so cheap, what's the use of it?"
"Um?"
Master Canglang's long and narrow eyes gradually narrowed into a line, with a cold light flickering inside.
Su Zimo's provocation made him murderous!
At this moment, 'Zhui Feng', who was originally standing next to Su Zimo, suddenly became irritable and restless, his horse's hooves scraping against the ground and neighing.
Su Zimo remained calm, but was shocked.
He had been in danger a few times, and 'Chasing the Wind' was one such reaction.
"He is actually a psychic beast. Hmph, he dares to make noises in front of me!"
Master Canglang gave a soft drink, stretched out his index finger, and tapped lightly towards 'Zhui Feng'.
There was no time to react, and a flash of red light had already entered Zhui Feng's body.
In full view of everyone, a scorching flame suddenly burst out from 'Zhui Feng''s body, sweeping across his body in an instant.
call!
This flame was so powerful that it even enveloped Su Zimo!
Although Su Zimo was not as weak as ordinary scholars, he had never seen such cunning methods before and was completely shocked.
Seeing that Su Zimo was about to be caught in the flames, 'Zhui Feng' let out a mournful cry and galloped outside like crazy.
The crowd was so frightened that they fled in all directions. 'Chasing the Wind' didn't run a few steps before falling to the ground limply. In the blink of an eye, it was burned into a ball of dust, with no bones left!
The whole process only takes a few breaths. This kind of flame is definitely not of the mortal world!
It is conceivable that if 'Zhui Feng' hadn't run away in time, Su Zimo would have never been able to survive even a tiny bit of flames.
"It's such a pity that it's such a steed to protect the Lord through psychic powers." Wolf Guard Cao Gang secretly regretted it.
The breeze blew by, and the ashes of 'Zhuifeng' were floating in the air, lingering for a long time, as if bidding farewell to its owner.
Su Zimo stared blankly ahead, his eyes red, and his soulless look was vaguely heart-wrenching.
This time, Su Zimo failed to be killed. Master Canglang's eyes flashed with cold light, and his murderous intention returned!
"Master, forget it, he is just a mortal, why do you need to know him the same way?"
Shen Mengqi looked at Su Zimo below, feeling a little unbearable in her heart, and whispered.
Master Canglang hesitated slightly.
To deal with a mortal, you have to attack continuously, which is indeed a bit of a loss of status.
But Zhou Dingyun didn't want to let Su Zimo go so easily, and said quickly: "Master, we must get rid of the root before we can cut off the grass, lest this person becomes a serious trouble in the future!"
Master Canglang was still hesitant at first, but when he heard Zhou Dingyun's words, he felt arrogant and sneered: "He is just a pariah with no spiritual roots. He has no hope of practicing in his life. In terms of qualifications, he is not as good as that beast just now!"
"Sparing his life, so what! Does he deserve to be my biggest worry? In the next life!"
Zhou Dingyun cursed in his heart, how could he know that his words would have the opposite effect.
Su Zimo didn't say a word, just silently picked up a handful of 'Zhui Feng''s ashes from the ground, turned around and left.
A trace of sarcasm flashed across Master Canglang's eyes, and he said calmly: "How can a humble ant touch the wings of a goshawk even if his heart is toward the sky."
Seeing Su Zimo leave safely, Zhou Dingyun showed unwillingness.
If it weren't for this person, how could he have suffered so much in prison? Thinking of this, Zhou Dingyun's eyes became vicious, his face was gloomy, and he didn't know what he was planning.
Shen Mengqi looked at Su Zimo's lonely back and sighed secretly in her heart.
In less than half an hour, this man lost everything he owned, perhaps, only his pitiful pride remained.
But what's the use
"Alas, this Second Young Master Su has lost his fame and become a pariah. He is no different from a useless person."
"The two young masters of the Su family are both civilized and martial. They have been on the rise in recent years, but they did not expect to suffer such a blow. Fortunately, the eldest son Su is an innate master."
"What's the use of an innate master? Mr. Cao, the Wolf Guard, is also an innate master. When he saw the immortal, he was so frightened that he fell to his knees."
"According to what the immortal said, Second Young Master Su is not even qualified to practice. I am afraid he will die in depression from now on."
Su Zimo lowered his head, as if he didn't hear the comments of others, and moved forward silently.
"Zimo, wait."
The voice was so familiar, but the name was a bit unfamiliar. Before today, the woman behind him had been calling him brother Zimo affectionately.
Su Zimo kept walking and continued walking forward.
Shen Mengqi caught up with her, a little sweat appeared on the tip of her nose, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she gasped: "Zimo, you are stupid in reading, why did it matter if you just knelt down?"
"It doesn't matter, it's just that I don't want to." Su Zimo said lightly.
Su Zimo kept walking, and Shen Mengqi was already angry. When she heard these words, she became even more annoyed. She took a few steps forward and stopped in front of Su Zimo.
"Su Zimo, wake up!"
Shen Mengqi stared into Su Zimo's eyes and said loudly: "Don't think about revenge. This is absolutely impossible. You are seventeen years old and have missed the best age to practice martial arts. And you have no spiritual roots, so you can't In practice, even if you can reach the realm of acquired and innate martial arts in the future, it will only be a mortal's strength and will be vulnerable to immortals!"
Su Zimo was silent, just looking at Shen Mengqi quietly.
Shen Mengqi couldn't resist Su Zimo's gaze, lowered her head, and said softly: "We did have an agreement, and thank you for helping the Shen family these years, but... that has passed after all. And, from now on, we are two people of the world."
Su Zimo smiled and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is your world amazing?"
Shen Mengqi said: "Zhou Dingyun and I will leave Pingyang Town tomorrow with the real person. Now we are here to say goodbye to you. We don't want to argue with you about these meaningless things."
"Let's go. If Su doesn't send you off, we'll see you again when we have a chance."
Su Zimo's mood was waning and he walked around Shen Mengqi.
Just when the two of them had just passed each other, Shen Mengqi was heard murmuring softly: "The love between you and me has ended. We are separated by immortals and mortals. I'm afraid... we will never see each other again."
Su Zimo's footsteps paused slightly, and finally left without saying a word.
