1178 Bearding The Lion in Its Den, The Materials Were Robbed (2)
Without Zhou Shu, the Huaxia Pavilion had lost its backbone.
Only with Zhou Shu was the Huaxia Pavilion truly the Huaxia Pavilion.
“Deputy Pavilion Master!”
While Shi Songtao was speaking, someone suddenly ran over.
“What are you doing?! Don’t panic! Can’t you see His Highness is here?” Shi Songtao berated angrily.
“Deputy Pavilion Master, bad news,” the man said loudly, breathing heavily. “Our forging materials have been robbed.”
“What did you say?” Shi Songtao’s expression changed. He had just told Zhou Shu that everything was fine, and the Huaxia Pavilion was about to start work.
Now, someone ran over and told him that the forging materials of the Huaxia Pavilion had been stolen?
Wasn’t he slapping himself in the face?
“What’s going on? Tell me clearly! Who dares to rob our Huaxia Pavilion?!” Shi Songtao shouted.
Everyone knew that the owner of the Huaxia Pavilion was Zhou Shu.
The news of Zhou Shu killing Grotto-Heaven Masters had long spread throughout the world.
Who would dare to mess with him?
Even Grotto-Heaven Masters didn’t have the guts!
“I don’t know.” The man wiped his cold sweat. “Our people were all killed. The tens of millions of kilograms of forging materials they were transporting have all disappeared.”
“Kill and rob?” Zhou Shu’s voice sounded. “Is there really someone so reckless?”
His expression was cold. “Deputy Pavilion Master Shi, has this happened before?”
Even more than a hundred years ago, no one had ever dared to snatch something from him.
Back then, Zhou Shu had tricked so many forging materials from the Demon Realm. Even the demonic beasts from the Demon Realm didn’t dare to snatch them back.
Now, he had already revealed his strength, yet someone still dared to snatch his things.
“No!” Shi Songtao said. “This has never happened before.”
In the past hundred years, although the Huaxia Pavilion had survived in the cracks, such a thing had never happened.
Who would rob the Huaxia Pavilion of their forging materials?
Even if they robbed the Huaxia Pavilion of their forging materials, could they still go to the Huaxia Pavilion to forge connate divine weapons?
Even if the Huaxia Pavilion couldn’t decide the ownership of the connate divine weapon, as the forgers, they still had the right to make suggestions.
“Never?” Zhou Shu sneered. “Looks like they’re after me.”
In the past, no one had ever robbed them. Now that he had just returned to take over the Huaxia Pavilion, people immediately came to rob them.
He didn’t believe that it wasn’t directed at him.
“Send people to investigate,” Zhou Shu said coldly. “Since someone wants to provoke me, I’ll play with them.
“Let Zhang San go personally. I want to see who’s deliberately causing trouble for me at this time!”
Did they really think Zhou Shu wouldn’t get angry?
He was racing against time to prepare the human race to deal with the enemy from beyond the heavens. Whoever dared to delay him was ruining his plan.
This was a major matter that concerned the survival of this world.
No matter who the other party was, he was really angry this time.
No matter who it was, he would make them pay an unbearable price.
Even if they were Grotto-Heaven Masters, it wasn’t like Zhou Shu hadn’t killed some before.
“Alright!” Shi Songtao was also furious. Zhou Shu had just returned, and he was trying his best to show off in front of him.
In the end, he was given a rude shock!
Wasn’t this slapping his face?
“I’ll go with Zhang San!” Shi Songtao rolled up his sleeves. “No matter who did it, I must kill them!”
“Where are you going?” Zhou Shu said angrily. “You’re a forger. Do you want to roll up your sleeves and fight with others?
“Stay here and keep an eye on the Huaxia Pavilion.
“Hurry up and tidy up this place. We can’t delay forging for even fifteen minutes. Hurry up and complete the Huaxia Pavilion.”
Zhou Shu berated, “Have you forgotten what I told you? Leave the professionals to do their job. You’re a forger, so forge obediently. If Zhang San can’t find the other party, can you?”
“Yes,” Shi Songtao said weakly.
Zhou Shu pointed at Shi Songtao’s glabella, and a white light entered Shi Songtao’s mind.
“Familiarize yourself with this set of forging techniques first before imparting it. We have to ensure that every forger in the Huaxia Pavilion has mastered it.”
With that, Zhou Shu took a step and instantly disappeared.
…
Outside the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, in a desolate mountain on the human continent…
A white-haired figure knelt on one knee, picked up the bloodstained dust on the ground, and sniffed it.
Then he raised his head and sniffed the scent in the wind.
“Grandpa—” Zhang Qiyun whispered.
“Shut up!” Zhang San shouted.
Zhou Shu had already treated the injuries that Zhang San had accumulated for many years. Now, he had returned to the army and became a scout.
Zhou Shu had instructed him to bring Zhang Qiyun with him.
Zhang Qiyun’s chance encounter with Zhou Shu was an opportunity for him.
If not for Zhou Shu’s instructions, Zhang San might not have brought him along to impart his skills to him.
Even so, Zhang Qiyun had been scolded by Zhang San a lot recently.
What else could Zhang Qiyun do? He was his grandfather!
He could only endure it.
“Hmph!” Zhang San suddenly snorted coldly. He stomped heavily and soared into the sky.
The Great Destroyer Heavenly Bow instantly appeared in his hand. He drew the bow fully, and a stream of light shot into the distance.
Zhang San was extremely fast. Zhang Qiyun didn’t react until the arrow shot out.
He looked into the distance in confusion. He could see his grandfather’s movements clearly, but he didn’t find any traces of enemies ahead.
Boom!
A ball of light exploded.
A figure darted out of the forest and laughed loudly. “Haha, you’re indeed the number one scout in the world. You actually discovered my traces.”
Zhang San’s expression was cold. “You’ve killed people, yet you still dare to stay at Great Wei?”
“Zhang Qiyun, Cloud-Piercing Arrow!” Zhang San shouted while continuously shooting arrows at this person with his Great Destroyer Heavenly Bow.
The man laughed loudly. “I’ve seen your ability today. We’ll meet again if fate allows it!”
The man punched out and scattered Zhang San’s arrow beams. Then he turned into a ray of light and disappeared.
“You want to leave? Not so easy!” Zhang San shouted and turned into a stream of light to chase after him.
“Grand…” Zhang Qiyun opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Zhang San had already disappeared.
He held the Cloud-Piercing Arrow and was at a loss.
Should he shoot it or not?
“Sigh!” Zhang Qiyun gritted his teeth and looked in the direction Zhang San had disappeared. He chased after him.
Rumbling sounds kept erupting in the distance. It was also because of these sounds that Zhang Qiyun could barely keep up.
Otherwise, with his cultivation, he wouldn’t have been able to find any traces of Zhang San and the man.
After all, Zhang San was at the Grotto-Heaven realm, while Zhang Qiyun was barely at the Earth Immortal realm.
Boom!
Two streams of light disappeared into the sky one after another.
Zhang Qiyun stood on a mountain, panting. He could only watch as the two streams of light disappeared.
He had really done his best, but he really couldn’t catch up now.
“Cloud-Piercing Arrow!”
Zhang Qiyun didn’t hesitate. He took out the Cloud-Piercing Arrow and shot it into the air.
Amid the whistling sound, a figure landed in front of Zhang Qiyun at an unbelievable speed.
“Your Highness?” Zhang Qiyun was pleasantly surprised. He didn’t expect Zhou Shu to come personally after he shot the Cloud-Piercing Arrow.
“Where is Zhang San?” Zhou Shu asked.
“We found an enemy. My grandfather is chasing after him. I wasn’t strong enough and lost them,” Zhang Qiyun said in shame. He raised his hand and pointed in a direction.
“Let’s go!” Zhou Shu placed his hand on Zhang Qiyun’s shoulder, and a powerful force carried Zhang Qiyun into the sky.
