"Wutong, it's alright. Just listen to uncle," Xu Sanshi, who was much more clever than the original Huo Gua, said with a smile, persuading her.
Tang Wutong mumbled with a face full of dissatisfaction, "They just don't believe in my judgment. Hmph!"
Xu Sanshi laughed and said, "As long as you treat me as your boyfriend, it's fine. Your family, I will surely get along well with them. Take me for a tour, and then find a place to stay."
"Mmm," hearing his words, Tang Wutong, with a slight blush on her pretty face, led Xu Sanshi into the castle.
Inside the castle, there was no luxurious decoration. The overall layout was mainly gray and black. From time to time, there would be traces of azure in some places. On both sides, there were stairs that could be climbed to a higher place. The structure of the castle was not very complex. There were a total of three floors, but the area it occupied was on the contrary considerably not small.
Tang Wutong introduced to Xu Sanshi, "The first floor of our Clear Sky Castle is for the members of the sect to live. The second floor is for entertaining guests and for the sect's elders to live. The third floor is for my First Uncle, my Second Uncle, and also me. We all live on the third floor."
"The strength of your Clear Sky Sect is really formidable!" Xu Sanshi secretly praised. In the classics of the Sea God Pavilion, he had once seen a detailed introduction of the Clear Sky Sect. In Shrek Academy's collection of materials on the various sects, the Clear Sky Sect was ranked at the very front, neck and neck with the Body Sect. It could be seen how powerful it was.
According to the introduction in the classics, the founding of the Clear Sky Sect was even earlier than Shrek Academy. It was also an ancient sect that had spanned over ten thousand years, and its history was even more distant than the Body Sect's. As early as ten thousand years ago, the Clear Sky Sect had been known as the number one tool martial soul sect. Even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, which had been illustrious at the time, had to be ranked below it.
According to the records, back then, the head of the first generation of the Shrek Seven Devils of Shrek Academy, and also the founding Buddha of the Tang Sect, Tang San, had come from the Clear Sky Sect. His father had been directly called the Clear Sky Douluo. His strength was even more so extremely powerful. And Tang San had also been a twin martial soul. One of them was precisely the Clear Sky Hammer.
But according to Shrek Academy's records, about a thousand years ago, the Clear Sky Sect had gradually faded out and had disappeared. The members of its sect were not seen walking on the continent. The world had judged that it had gradually died out. It had not been expected that not only had the Clear Sky Sect not disappeared, but it had even more so built such a miraculous, otherworldly castle in this place deep in the clouds.
Tang Wutong looked at him with a half-smile and said, "Third Brother, you wouldn't be belittling yourself, would you?"
Xu Sanshi let out a bitter laugh. "No matter how strong my background is, it is impossible for me to be compared with the Clear Sky Sect. Wutong, for you to have been born in such an ancient and powerful sect as the Clear Sky Sect, the pressure on me is very great! The two of us..."
Tang Wutong interrupted him with dissatisfaction, "How are you like those vulgar people? What identity and so on? Is it important to us?"
Xu Sanshi held her and laughedd, saying, "I, a pure loser, don't care. As long as you think it's not important, then it is not important."
Tang Wutong let out a stifled laugh and said, "Still calling yourself a loser? That sounds so unpleasant. In the future, try not to say those words. Let's go—you'll be living with me on the third floor."
Xu Sanshi glanced around with some guilt and said, "Live with you? This is not good, right? No matter what, this is your home..."
Hearing this, Tang Wutong blushed and, with one hand, pinched Xu Sanshi's ear. "What are you thinking? There are also guest rooms on the third floor."
Inside the castle, from time to time, some gray-clothed people would walk by. From their auras and soul power fluctuations, Xu Sanshi could judge that the gray-clothed people he had seen before were just the most basic here. The strength of several of the gray-clothed people had given him a feeling of being unfathomable. At the very least, they had a cultivation of Soul Sage and above. This Clear Sky Sect really was a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers! However, living in such a precipitous mountain range, how could they live? After entering this Clear Sky Castle, Xu Sanshi could be said to be full of questions.
Tang Wutong had brought Xu Sanshi to the third floor and had arranged for him to be in one of the rooms.
The area of the room was not very large. The bed, table, and chairs inside were actually all carved from stone. The cabinet was also the same. The layout was considerably simple.
Tang Wutong said with some apology, "This is how it is here. The conditions are relatively simple. Don't you mind!"
Xu Sanshi smiled as if he didn't mind in the slightest. "Why are you still being polite with me? To be able to live in this Clear Sky Castle, deep in the clouds, just take it as a trip. You have just come back. Hurry up and go and see your family. Don't worry about me. I'll meditate and rest for a while."
"Alright. I'll bring you some bedding later," only then did Tang Wutong turn around and leave.
He had left. Xu Sanshi naturally began to size up the room he was living in. The area of the room was about twenty square meters, and there was a bathroom.
In the bathroom was a portrait. On the portrait was an extremely beautiful woman, wearing a rabbit-ear hair ornament on her head. Below was placed a water basin, which was filled with a milky white water. Xu Sanshi reached out and scooped up a handful of water, wanting to wash his face. But the moment his hand had entered the water, he was startled.
The water was extremely viscous, just like the ability of his Xuanwu's domain. The clear water he had scooped up in his hand had even hung on his hand. He sniffed it lightly and also smelled a strange, fishy smell...
So sticky! So smelly! Could this be... Xu Sanshi's face was strange. He hesitated for a moment but still threw the strange water into the basin. This kind of a liquid of an unknown origin, it was better not to put it on his face...
On the third floor of the Clear Sky Castle.
Tang Wutong pouted her lips and walked into a large room with a look of dissatisfaction. In this large room, her Second Uncle from before was sitting there. And on the main seat was also sitting another middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man sitting in the main seat had a head of long, azure hair, scattered over his broad and magnificent shoulders. His pupils and eye sockets were also azure. It was just that his eye sockets were a little swollen. Between their opening and closing, the seemingly simple and unadorned two pupils had on the contrary a kind of an indescribable special texture. It seemed there was a feeling of being unable to suppress the tyrannical aura in his body from leaking out. A white, sturdy suit covered his magnificent body.
At this time, the two seemed to be discussing something.
"First Uncle! Second Uncle! What's wrong with you! The one who has come from afar is a guest! Second Uncle, what were you doing just now! What if you had scared him?" The moment Tang Wutong had entered the door, she had, like a string of firecrackers, begun to question them.
The Titan Giant Ape laughed loudly and said, "My little phoenix, you haven't been home for so long. The moment you've returned, you've thrown a tantrum at your First Uncle and Second Uncle. This is not right. As for your boyfriend, if he can't even pass my one hurdle, what qualification does he have to enter our Clear Sky Castle? He does have some ability. But, compared to our little phoenix, he is still far off."
Tang Wutong was immediately greatly dissatisfied and explained, "What are you talking about? You don't understand him at all. Third Brother is very outstanding. He is the divine beast martial soul, Xuanwu. And his martial soul can even evolve again. Didn't I tell you all the last time I came back? Could it be that you still don't believe in my judgment?"
The Sky Azure Bull Python, sitting in the main seat, smiled faintly and said in a deep voice, "Little Qi, stop fooling around. It's not that we don't believe in your judgment, but we have to check for you. And didn't your Second Uncle also stop at the right point? Hmm?"
Suddenly, the faces of the two middle-aged men both changed. A trace of surprise was revealed in their eyes. They looked at each other. The Sky Azure Bull Python said to Wang Dong, "Little Qi, which room did you arrange your boyfriend in?"
Tang Wutong said, "Yes, your cultivation room! Didn't I say that he has the divine beast Xuanwu martial soul? It will be very beneficial for his cultivation there."
The Sky Azure Bull Python's face suddenly became a little strange. That room was the place where he personally often cultivated, that was right. It was just...
