Wu Shattered Star River

#331 - Chapter 331 Short-sighted

The peak lord of Sword Demon Peak is called Feng Zhisheng. He is one of the elders of Sword Demon Mountain, representing Sword Demon Mountain in Tianluan Island.

Jiang Han was taken to a pavilion in the north city. As soon as he entered the hall, Jiang Han saw a familiar face. Lu Jian was actually standing inside.

"Huh?"

Jiang Han glanced at Lu Jian, then at the poker-faced old man sitting next to Lu Jian, and his expression became slightly unnatural.

Sword Demon Mountain is recruiting him, why isn't Si Li coming forward? What does Lu Jian being here mean? Could it be that they guessed wrong, and Sword Demon Mountain has no intention of recruiting him?

Jiang Han has a very poor impression of Lu Jian. The first time he saw him, this person led the team to participate in the island grabbing battle, but because he was too arrogant and underestimated the enemy, the island grabbing battle failed.

In today's island grabbing battle, Lu Jian showed killing intent towards him many times. In the end, the killing intent could hardly be concealed. Jiang Han naturally had a very poor impression of this person.

Jiang Han was stunned when he walked in. Without saying a word or bowing, Lu Jian's face sank, and he reprimanded, "Jiang Han, this is Elder Feng Zhisheng of my Sword Demon Mountain, and also the peak lord of Sword Demon Peak. Why don't you kneel and salute when you see him?"

"Kneel?"

Jiang Han frowned slightly. He is not a disciple of Sword Demon Mountain, so why should he kneel? Even if he were a disciple of Sword Demon Mountain, there is no need for kneeling salutations, right?

Elder Feng Zhisheng looked at Jiang Han expressionlessly, his facial muscles sagging. It was hard to tell if he was really paralyzed or just liked to keep a straight face.

Jiang Han thought for a while and bowed, saying, "Jiang Han pays respects to Peak Lord Feng!"

Seeing that Jiang Han did not kneel, Lu Jian was about to reprimand him again, but Feng Zhisheng waved his hand.

His facial muscles moved slightly, and he said, "Jiang Han, I heard that you comprehended an extreme divine power? Are you willing to join my Sword Demon Peak? This seat can grant you the position of deputy commander."

Jiang Han frowned even tighter. Was it joining Sword Demon Peak, not Sword Demon Mountain?

This is a fundamental difference.

Sword Demon Peak is equivalent to a branch of Sword Demon Mountain, just a stronghold of Sword Demon Mountain in Tianluan Island. What's the point of joining Sword Demon Peak?

If he joined Sword Demon Peak, he might as well join the Tianluan Army. They even offer the position of commander there, while this place only offers the position of deputy commander? Moreover, Lord Gu said that he would wipe out all his prison sentence.

Is the deputy commander of Sword Demon Peak more valuable than the commander of the Tianluan Army?

Jiang Han instinctively resisted. After hesitating for a while, he said vaguely, "Isn't this disciple already at Sword Demon Peak? This disciple comes from Flying Immortal Hall, which is already affiliated with Sword Demon Mountain. Is there any difference between joining or not joining Sword Demon Peak?"

Jiang Han refused euphemistically. Before Feng Zhisheng could say anything, Lu Jian snorted coldly and said, "Jiang Han, don't be ungrateful! Elder Feng, as an elder of Sword Demon Mountain and the peak lord of Sword Demon Peak, personally came forward to recruit you, and you dare to refuse?

Don't think that just because you comprehended an extreme divine power, you really think you're someone important."

Lu Jian's words were very harsh. Feng Zhisheng frowned slightly and twitched the corner of his mouth, but he didn't interrupt Lu Jian.

"Heh!"

Jiang Han was amused. Before coming, he had been struggling with whether to join Sword Demon Mountain. After all, Si Li had been kind to him.

If Si Li had come forward, it might have been difficult for him to refuse.

Before coming, he was even thinking of discussing it with Si Li. Joining Sword Demon Mountain was possible, but he hoped to also hold a position as a guest elder in Flying Immortal Hall, so that he could give an explanation to Lu Feixian.

Now that Si Li was not here, and with Lu Jian and Feng Zhisheng's attitude, he would not consider it at all.

He cupped his hands and said, "Peak Lord Feng, Young Master Lu, I'm sorry! I'm used to being free and unrestrained, and I'm not used to being restrained, so I still won't join this Sword Demon Peak."

Feng Zhisheng's paralyzed muscles twitched, and Lu Jian snorted coldly again, saying, "You're really ungrateful. Grandpa Feng, a person like Jiang Han is unruly and rebellious. Joining Sword Demon Peak will also cause big trouble."

"He killed more than a thousand people on Wangyue Island before, otherwise Si Li wouldn't have sentenced him to more than three hundred years. I think it's better not to have such a person."

Feng Zhisheng's eyes flickered, and after hesitating for a while, he said, "Jiang Han, are you really not considering it? If you join Sword Demon Peak, you can join Sword Demon Mountain in the future. With your aptitude, as long as you abide by the iron laws of the mountain, there will be opportunities to rise to prominence in the future."

Jiang Han cupped his hands again and said, "Thank you, Peak Lord, but I don't want to join for the time being."

Feng Zhisheng's face sank and he waved his hand. Jiang Han immediately retreated and walked out quickly.

Not long after Jiang Han left, a beautiful figure walked in.

Si Li entered the courtyard. When she saw Lu Jian, her eyebrows furrowed slightly. She bowed slightly and said, "Elder Feng, you're out of seclusion?"

Feng Zhisheng looked at Si Li with gentle eyes, but the muscles on his face still didn't move. It seemed that he was really paralyzed. He said, "Si Li is here. What's the matter?"

Si Li reported, "There is a disciple in Flying Immortal Hall named Jiang Han, who is extremely talented and comprehended the extreme divine power in the Reincarnation Realm. Talents are rare, and Si Li hopes that Elder Feng and I can come forward together to recruit him into Sword Demon Mountain."

"Uh..."

Feng Zhisheng was slightly stunned, and the corner of his mouth twitched, revealing a smile that was even more ugly than crying. He said, "Jiang Han just came, and he refused to join."

"Huh?"

A cold light flashed in Si Li's eyes, and her sharp gaze turned to Lu Jian, who felt a little scared by the look.

He avoided her gaze and said, "Si Li, why are you looking at me? Jiang Han is arrogant and conceited, and he doesn't put anyone in his eyes. Grandpa Feng personally came forward to recruit him and even promised him the position of deputy commander. He's ungrateful and unwilling to join himself, so what does it have to do with me?"

Si Li's eyes turned cold. From Lu Jian's short words, she had already guessed what had happened.

Feng Zhisheng had been in seclusion before and only came out of seclusion today. He probably didn't know about Jiang Han's situation.

Lu Jian didn't want Jiang Han to join Sword Demon Mountain and deliberately fanned the flames on the side. Feng Zhisheng injured his face many years ago and became paralyzed, so Jiang Han was very likely to be provoked.

Si Li didn't argue with Lu Jian. There was no point. She lowered her head and pondered for a moment, said nothing, saluted Feng Zhisheng, and then turned and left.

Seeing that Si Li didn't even look at him afterwards, Lu Jian became a little anxious. He cupped his hands at Feng Zhisheng and chased after her.

He stopped Si Li and said, "Si Li, it's not that I'm targeting Jiang Han, it's really that Jiang Han is arrogant and conceited..."

"Get out of the way!"

Si Li's pretty face sank, and she reprimanded loudly, "To have someone as narrow-minded and short-sighted as you is the misfortune of the Lu family and even more so the misfortune of Sword Demon Mountain!"

Swish, swish, swish!

A group of soldiers and guards outside the main hall all turned their heads. These soldiers were disciples of Sword Demon Mountain, and when they heard Si Li's words, their faces showed surprise.

Si Li has a detached personality and never argues with people. If she can't stand someone, she will just turn around and leave, too lazy to say another word.

How many years has it been?

This was the first time they had heard Si Li scold someone, and she scolded so harshly. Was this still Si Li?

"I..."

Lu Jian's face instantly became extremely ugly. This was also the first time he had seen Si Li get angry, and she spoke so harshly. He panicked for a moment and didn't know how to explain.

"Shua!"

Si Li didn't want to say another word to Lu Jian. A flash of light appeared in the space ring in her hand, and a cyan long sword appeared.

She tapped her toes, flew into the air on her sword, and turned into a white light that disappeared into the distance.

"Jiang Han!"

Seeing the direction Si Li was flying in, which was the courtyard where Jiang Han and the others lived, Lu Jian roared in a low voice, gnashing his teeth.

His face became ferocious, and his killing intent soared into the sky, making the team of soldiers next to him feel as if they were in a cold abyss.

"Hmm?"

Just as Jiang Han arrived outside the small courtyard, he heard the sound of air being torn behind him.

He turned his head and saw Si Li flying towards him on her sword. He quickly stopped and bowed.

Si Li didn't fly down, but stood in mid-air. She looked at Jiang Han from a distance, thought for a while, and said, "Jiang Han, there are many people in this world, and not everyone is a bad person."

Jiang Han understood what Si Li meant. He knew that with Si Li's personality, it was already very rare for her to chase after him and say such a sentence.

He nodded with a smile and said, "I know, Miss Si Li is a very good person, and I am always grateful."

Si Li nodded slightly, said nothing more, and the flying sword drew an arc in the air and disappeared into the northern sky.
