Novel Full Chapter 185
Chapter 185: How Many Good Deeds Did You Do in Your Previous Lives to Be This Handsome?
A huge black mosquito was drawn on the bounty notice. Its body was black and had six dark red wings as if they were dyed in blood. Its size was also quite humongous, tens of meters long, and when it was flying in the air, it was like a fortress in the sky.
Black Mountain City seemed to be extremely tiny before this Mosquito Demon. They were unable to resist at all, and it was a one-sided slaughter.
What, you ask how Shen Tian came to a conclusion from just a bounty notice’s information?
It’s very simple—murals of the black red-winged mosquito attacking the city were behind that bounty picture, and it was still being updated.
Also, to compare just how big that black mosquito was, the painter who drew the murals had specially marked the size ratio beside it.
Thus, Shen Tian secretly admired the painter—this was the rigorous attitude that a cultural creator should have!
However, Black Mountain City was still safe, meaning Shen Tian had not missed the fortuitous opportunity’s timing. That was because in the scene of the fortuitous opportunity Shen Tian had seen in the Big Dipper Saint’s halo, Black Mountain City had already become a dead city.
Corpses and bones were scattered everywhere within the ruins.
This tragedy was one of the important reasons why Shen Tian decided to intervene and snatch the Big Dipper Saint’s fortuitous opportunity.
Shen Tian was not a saint. The cultivation world was about the survival of the fittest—it was the law of the jungle. Thus, he did not bother to get involved with those he could not see and did not know.
However, since there was a fortuitous opportunity in Black Mountain City, Shen Tian did not mind ending this Blood Mosquito Demon before the Big Dipper Saint.
Since slaying demons was considered a good deed, even if his providence could not increase, he could at least have a clear conscience.
Of course, it was also partially that Shen Tian wanted to vent his anger from being lost for four days.
Though that was just in passing, venting his anger was not a crucial reason to slay the demon.
…
Shen Tian walked to the city gates, but he was stopped by a man guarding the city.
“Stop! I see you’re not a local, right!”
That man was rather burly, and he even had little Spirit Qi within him.
After Shen Tian tried probing, he realized that he was a weakling in the 3rd Firmament of Qi Refinement.
As compared to an expert like Shen Tian, who was in the Foundation Establishment stage, a Qi Refinement cultivator was too weak.
Such a weakling still wants to stop me and demand a bribe? Is it possible that I finally encountered the plot of being able to flaunt my strength and slap him in the face?
Shen Tian was slightly looking forward to such a plot. He lifted his head to see the halo on the man’s head and saw it was only pale green, so nothing would go wrong!
At that thought, Shen Tian revealed a smile. “Yes. Brother, how did you know?”
That man smiled and said proudly, “I have discerning eyes. You’re this handsome, so if there was such a handsome man in Black Mountain City, how would I not recognize you?”
Shen Tian wiped his sweat and said, “Brother, you’re indeed smart.”
That man nodded proudly. “Don’t flatter me. You can’t enter the city!”
Shen Tian was stunned and said helplessly, “Why not? Am I breaking any laws by being this handsome?”
It was the first time Shen Tian heard that he could not enter the city because he was too handsome—these average-looking people were too much!
That man looked like he was annoyed, but he still explained, “Can’t you tell after seeing the murals? A demon has been attacking the city the past few days!
“Seeing how handsome you are, it’s obvious that you’re the young master of a wealthy and influential family that went jaunting.
“However, coming to Black Mountain City now, what if the demon kills you? It’s not worthwhile, is it?
“If you were ugly, then I wouldn’t try to persuade you. If you die, just reincarnate into a different family.
“However, you’re this handsome. Who knows how many good deeds you did in your previous lives to be this handsome. It would be a pity for you to be killed by a demon at such a young age. Don’t be unreasonable and seek your own death!”
After finishing, that guard pushed Shen Tian away from the city. “Alright, hurry, and go home!”
After being pushed back quite a few steps by the guard, Shen Tian was completely dumbfounded.
He actually dared to push me!
He is just a weakling in the 3rd Firmament of Qi Refinement, and he actually dared to push me, a Foundation Establishment cultivator. He’s too presumptuous!
If not for my broad-mindedness, other Foundation Establishment cultivators would definitely teach him a lesson!
At that thought, Shen Tian nodded coldly. “Young man, you’ve attracted my attention.”
After finishing, a radiant light exploded throughout Shen Tian’s body, emitting a mighty aura.
The Azure Dragon avatar appeared behind him, soaring into the sky. Everyone in Black Mountain City could feel the oppressive dragon aura.
A few people in Black Mountain City were alerted and simultaneously shot toward where Shen Tian was. They seemed to be extremely excited.
“Welcome Immortal Senior to Black Mountain City! We’ve been counting the seconds to Immortal Senior’s arrival, and Immortal Senior is finally here.”
“Immortal Senior, the City Lord has already prepared a welcome banquet, ready to host Immortal Senior anytime.”
“Immortal Senior is indeed from Big Dipper City. You have an extraordinary appearance, and it’s as if you’re a heavenly immortal that descended!”
“Immortal Senior, if you can defeat that demon, then you will be our Black Mountain City’s great benefactor. We are very willing to erect a longevity monument for you!”
“Immortal Senior, may I know what you like? As long as you say the word, no matter if it’s treasure and jewels, songs and dances, or beauties, we will immediately arrange them for you.”
“Immortal Senior, you’ve come alone? Do you want a maid? My daughter is 18 years old and as beautiful as a flower.”
…
All the cultivators who rushed to the city gates had reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
In Black Mountain City, these people were either the patriarchs of some family or being provided for by the City Lord. They were all respectable people.
However, after sensing the powerful aura from the city gate, those respectable people who “enjoy high prestige and command universal respect” were fighting to flatter Shen Tian.
That was because they could judge that this person’s strength at the city gate could easily dominate them.
Then associating to the fact that they had just submitted the “demon-slaying request” to Big Dipper City not long ago, these respectable people mistakenly thought that Shen Tian was reinforcement from Big Dipper City.
Everyone respectfully kowtowed behind Shen Tian. They looked like they were extremely polite and courteous.
Shen Tian instantly felt better.
This should be the treatment a Saint should receive! No wonder those novels about Gods of War could become popular!
Play dumb to prey on the powerful—preying on the powerful is the key!
Shen Tian revealed a mysterious smile. “There’s no need for courtesy. I’m only here to slay the demon. What treasure and jewels, songs and dances, or beauties? They are all external things, so there’s no need for them.”
After finishing, Shen Tian smiled as he went up to the dumbstruck guard.
“You’re quite kind-hearted. I’ve cultivated for 800 years, but this is the first time a Qi Refinement cultivator pushed me. You’re quite daring.”
Upon hearing Shen Tian’s words, that guard’s face turned as pale as a white sheet.
“Im-Immortal Senior! Please have mercy!”
The guard fell in despair upon sensing the other Foundation Establishment cultivators’ killing intent in the surroundings. He was very clear how miserable one’s end would be if one offended powerful cultivators!
When looking at that man, who was sweating profusely, Shen Tian’s anger from being lost for four days faded by quite a lot.
Hmph! Who told you to bully such a handsome me? Who told you to stop me from entering the city.
And you even pushed me. If I didn’t scare you to teach you a lesson, then next time, you might meet a surly evil cultivator, who would hold a grudge on you even if you meant well for the evil cultivator. You would for sure.
That’s right! I’m doing this all for him with best intentions!
…
Seeing that the guard was frightened, Shen Tian patted his shoulder.
“Never mind. Consider you’re fated with me, so follow me in these few days. Tell me everything about that Mosquito Demon. If you do well, then there won’t be a lack of fortuitous opportunity for you.”
Shen Tian’s voice was cold and calm, but it made all the other guards, the masses, and even the officials all look at that guard.
Their eyes were filled with envy since Shen Tian was a powerful Immortal Senior that had come from “Big Dipper City”!
If the Immortal Senior could take a liking to them, it would be enough even if he just gave them a small opportunity!
They had been under the impression that this fellow would definitely die from offending the Immortal Senior!
Who would have thought that there would be such a plot twist? He could serve the Immortal Senior!
Such luck really made everyone jealous!
…
When everyone looked at that guard, their eyes were green with envy.
Shen Tian smiled. Sometimes, the enjoyment of being a powerful cultivator…
Was this simple, unpretentious…
And dull!
