Chapter 407 Bullying goes too far!
"Here it comes!" Luo Shu's eyes suddenly focused. He sensed that Guangchengzi's breath was approaching rapidly.
He took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and prepared for the upcoming battle.
Not long after, a streak of light streaked across the sky and quickly flew towards Shouyang Mountain.
In that stream of light, it was Guangchengzi's figure. His face was solemn, and there was a hint of anxiety and worry between his brows.
Obviously, he was shocked and saddened by the news of the death of Chi Jingzi and the other two, and was eager to report the news to Yuanshi Tianzun.
"Fellow Daoist Guangchengzi, please stay!"
Just as Guangchengzi was about to fly over the forest where Luoshu was, Luoshu's voice suddenly rang out, exploding in Guangchengzi's ears like thunder.
Guangchengzi's body suddenly stopped, as if being pulled by an invisible force. He stopped and looked around vigilantly.
He could clearly sense Luoshu's breath, but that breath was like misty clouds, making it impossible for him to accurately lock onto Luoshu's position.
"Who are you, you rogue? How dare you stop me?" Guangchengzi's voice was cold and majestic, with a hint of unquestionable domineering.
"Haha, fellow Daoist Guangchengzi, why are you so nervous?"
Luo Shu chuckled, and slowly walked out from his hiding place and appeared in Guangchengzi's sight.
He had a smile on his face and looked calm, as if he didn't take Guangchengzi seriously.
When Guang Chengzi saw Luo Shu, his brows knitted slightly. He felt that he had seen this person's face somewhere before, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while.
However, he could clearly feel the powerful and profound aura emanating from Luo Shu, a power that even made him feel a little fearful.
Even Guangchengzi couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of crisis in his heart.
"Who are you? Why are you stopping me?" Guangchengzi asked in a deep voice, his eyes revealing a hint of vigilance and hostility.
"I am Luo Shu," Luo Shu said with a smile, "I didn't expect that after not seeing you for a few years, you wouldn't recognize me. Time really flies, and things have changed."
"What? Luoshu?" Guangchengzi's face changed instantly when he heard that.
He looked at the man in front of him carefully again, and the impression in his mind gradually became clearer.
Those dusty memories came flooding back like a tide, and he couldn't help but recall the grudge between him and Luo Shu in the past.
Back then, his master Yuanshi Tianzun had ordered him and Chi Jingzi to go to Chaoge together, intending to accept the two sons of King Di Xin of Shang as disciples.
However, just as they were about to complete the mission, they were blocked by Luo Shu.
Luo Shu was only in the early stage of Daluo Jinxian at that time, but his strength was extremely strong, and he actually beat him and Chi Jingzi without any chance of fighting back.
That battle could be said to be a great shame for them, and it was also a pain that Guangchengzi could never erase from his heart.
"Luo Shu, it's you!" Guang Chengzi's voice was filled with anger and hostility that could not be concealed. "Back then, you stopped me and Chi Jingzi from doing what they were doing. I didn't bother with you because we were both from the same sect. But today, you blocked my way again. What's your intention?"
Hearing this, Luo Shu raised a faint smile and said, "Daoyou, why are you so angry? What happened back then was just a small episode, so let's not talk about it."
"It is a rare occasion for us to meet again today. I have no other intentions, but I saw that you were in a hurry and seemed to have something important to do, so I wanted to reminisce with you and exchange some experiences."
"Reminiscing about the past?" Guang Chengzi snorted coldly, with a barely perceptible sneer flashing in his eyes. "It seems that there is not much to reminisce about between you and me. Besides, I have something important to do, so I can't stay for long. If you have nothing else to do, please make way."
Guang Chengzi knew that he was no match for Luo Shu, so he didn't want to have too much interaction with him. So now he just wanted to leave this place quickly.
Seeing this, Luo Shu thought to himself: This Guangchengzi obviously doesn't want to get entangled with me too much. If I let him go, how can I complete the task assigned by the system?
Thinking of this, he smiled slightly, moved slightly, and appeared in front of Guangchengzi like a ghost, blocking his way:
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave, fellow Daoist? After all, we haven't seen each other for several years. Why not have a discussion with each other? It can also be regarded as a way to reminisce about the past years."
Guang Chengzi's face changed slightly. He didn't expect Luo Shu to ask for a competition so directly. He couldn't help but feel wary:
"Luo Shu, what do you mean? Do you think I'm easy to bully and I'm afraid of you?"
Luo Shu shook his head, his smile showing some calmness and confidence:
"You have misunderstood, I have no such intention."
"It's just that I see that you are making great progress in your cultivation, and I admire you very much, so I would like to take this opportunity to ask you for some advice."
"So that fellow Taoists can feel whether I have made any progress in the past few years?"
Guang Chengzi's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he thought to himself. He knew that Luo Shu's coming this time was not accidental, nor was it out of good intentions.
He could feel a hidden but powerful fluctuation of magical power emanating from Luo Shu. This power should not be underestimated.
Moreover, although Luo Shu's words seemed polite, they actually concealed a sharp edge, and it was obvious that he came prepared.
He took a deep breath, tried to calm his inner fluctuations, and looked at Luo Shu firmly:
"Luo Shu, I have something to do today, so I can't bother with you too much. If you really want to learn from me, how about we make an appointment another day to compete?"
Hearing this, Luo Shu's smile remained unchanged, but a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.
He took a step forward slowly, as if he was waiting for the other party's answer, and as if he was putting pressure on the other party:
"Fellow Daoist, you are making excuses like this. Are you worried about something? Or are you afraid that you will be defeated by me if you fight with me?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Guangchengzi's face instantly turned ashen, as if his scars had been exposed in public.
He cursed in his heart: "Am I afraid of being defeated by you? I will be defeated, it's not the first time. Didn't you see that I was in a hurry to leave? Do you have any vision?"
However, Guangchengzi could only keep these words in his heart and dared not show any expression on his face.
Guang Chengzi took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He looked at Luo Shu firmly, with a sneer on his face:
"Luo Shu, don't be so arrogant. I'm not afraid of you, but I have something important to do today, so I can't get involved with you."
"I've just said that if you really want to compete, let's make an appointment another day to compete."
Hearing this, Luo Shu smiled even more, as if he had seen through Guang Chengzi's thoughts. He shook his head slightly and said:
"Fellow Daoist Guangchengzi, your words only prove that you have concerns in your heart. If you are truly fearless, why would you need to find excuses to shirk responsibility?"
Guang Chengzi was furious when he heard this, but he remained calm. He knew that arguing with a cunning person like Luo Shu would only put him in a more passive position.
So, he snorted coldly and said, "Luo Shu, stop slandering me. I do have something important to do today. If you know what's best for you, leave now and don't block my way."
"As for the discussion, I will accompany you to the end another day."
Seeing this, Luo Shu smiled secretly in his heart. He shook his head slowly, as if he was regretting Guang Chengzi's lack of understanding of the situation, and as if he was deliberately angering him:
"Fellow Daoist, this is wrong. I finally have the leisure time today. How about we have a discussion right now?"
"Is it true that you are so afraid of fighting me that you don't even have this little bit of courage?"
Guang Chengzi felt that he was on the verge of exploding. He suppressed the anger in his heart, his face was as gloomy as the sky covered with dark clouds, and his eyes revealed strong murderous intent and dissatisfaction:
"Luo Shu, you are going too far! If you continue to pester me like this, don't blame me for being rude!"
Luo Shu seemed not to have heard Guang Chengzi's warning and continued to smile, but that smile became more and more glaring to Guang Chengzi:
"You are wrong, my friend. I am just happy to see your progress and want to discuss the way of cultivation with you. Why are you so angry?"
"You!" Guangchengzi was so angry at Luoshu's words that he was speechless. He felt that he had never seen such a shameless person.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, then looked at Luo Shu coldly, "Luo Shu, if you don't get out of the way today, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Luo Shu seemed not to sense Guang Chengzi's murderous intent, and continued to say with a smile:
"Why are you so serious, fellow Daoist? I just want to have a discussion with you. I have no other intentions."
"If you really want to help me, I will never blame you for being ruthless. Instead, I will regard this as a rare opportunity for cultivation."
