Gao Wu insists on cultivating immortality.

Chapter 264 Overbearing
Wei Xiangjun looked arrogant and disdainful of Gao Wu.

She wasn't deliberately putting on airs; she genuinely looked down on Gao Wu.

The Martial Saints are the strongest members of the alliance, possessing incredibly noble status and immense power. They don't even appear in public, silently controlling the alliance and managing millions of people behind the scenes.

Internet celebrities, on the other hand, gain traffic by making fools of themselves. In essence, they are no different from actors; they make a living by pleasing ordinary people.

Gao Wu does have some talent in martial arts, but his demeanor is just too low-class and too poor.

What kind of title is "King of Youth"? It's one thing to say it casually, but to promote it so openly is something she feels ashamed of for Gao Wu and even more sorry for Hai Wuji.

One bad apple spoils the whole bunch, dragging down the Martial Saint's social standing by an unknown number of levels.

The powerful figures in each state secretly laughed at them.

Chu Yu smiled gently: "Gao Wu came from a humble background and became famous online to where he is today. It's quite inspiring. And he really is a genius."

She knew that Wei Xiangjun was arrogant and spoiled, and the more she tried to explain Gao Wu's situation, the more Wei Xiangjun disliked him.

Wei Xiangjun frowned slightly and said, "Sister Yu, let's not talk about him anymore, it's too disappointing."

Wei Xiangjun has always been quite close to her cousin, and she doesn't hold back when she speaks to her.

"Xiangjun, Gao Wu must have important business to attend to in Donghua."

Chu Dongjun, who had remained silent all along, said, "Having the opportunity to meet someone with high martial arts skills will also allow me to see what kind of person he is."

"As far as I know, Gao Wu killed Lightning Ars in a duel just a few days ago. He was an extremely powerful level six expert."

Chu Dongjun said seriously, "Gao Wu is only eighteen years old. Regardless of his behavior or personality, he is a ruthless character."

"Who is Lightning Ars?" Wei Xiangjun never cared about such things, and she didn't quite understand why Chu Dongjun was so concerned about it.

"A dragon-slaying knight under Venus's command. He is very powerful and can control lightning."

Chu Dongjun patiently explained the situation to his cousin. Wei Xiangjun, as Wei Qiankun's youngest daughter, had always been arrogant and haughty.

Wei Xiangjun certainly had reason to be arrogant, but Gao Wu was different. He had to explain the situation clearly to this young man in his twenties to prevent anything from going wrong.

The Chu family leans more towards Wei Qiankun, and he doesn't want Wei Xiangjun to be foolish enough to turn against Hai Wuji's faction.

Besides, Wei Xiangjun really couldn't beat Gao Wu. This young man, who rose from humble beginnings, carved his way out of poverty primarily through sheer ruthlessness.

Looking back at Gao Wu's history, we can see that when he was still a martial artist, he dared to kill his opponent in a highly anticipated competition.

People like Chu Shenxiu and Yan Qiushui are both exceptionally talented, no less so than Gao Wu. However, neither of them is as poisonous as Gao Wu.

The younger generation of geniuses haven't experienced much hardship, and they are far inferior to Gao Wu in this respect.

Even if Wei Xiangjun were at level five, she would still be certain to die against true and high-level martial arts. There was no chance of survival.

Chu Dongjun concluded solemnly, “You may not like Gao Wu, and you may not have to deal with him. But you should never underestimate him.”

After being lectured by Chu Dongjun, Wei Xiangjun laughed instead: "If that's what you say, cousin, then I really should go check out Gao Wu..."

Upon seeing this, Gao Wu withdrew his Yin Spirit. He felt that the man was indeed a remarkable figure, calm and experienced, with refined martial arts skills, and seemed stronger than Ars.

As for Xiangjun, he figured she was probably Wei Qiankun's daughter. While the girl had good potential, she wasn't quite at the top level.

Despite possessing a level five source power cultivation, his circulation was often sluggish, clearly indicating that he relied too much on external forces and was not yet able to properly control the powerful source power himself.

He didn't even need to lift a finger; Xiao Song could easily take down this arrogant but incompetent guy in a single move.

Gao Wu had no opinion on "Xiang Jun"; no one can be liked by everyone.

He has tens of millions of haters online, and under every video of his, there are people saying things like "showing off" and "pretentious."

Some people often say that he achieved his current success only by sacrificing his parents!
Gao Wu could only report and ban these kinds of people; he didn't have the time or energy to bother with these trolls.

Let alone him, even Emperor Qin Liuhe has countless haters. They hurl all sorts of insults at him.

This also serves as a testament to the diversity of humankind.

It's perfectly normal for Xiangjun to look down on him behind his back.

Gao Wu listened for a long time mainly to find out the identities of the three people and whether they were related to Stowe.

Tonight's banquet is going to be quite lively... He wants to see just how deep the waters run in Donghua...

Gao Wu called Song Mingyue over, and the two of them drew their swords and faced off in the spacious living room.

The main reason was that Gao Wu helped Song Mingyue become familiar with the Cangming Sword. The two of them didn't need to exert any real strength. Their swords moved back and forth as if they were pushing each other. When the two swords clashed, Gao Wu even sang a sword song.

This method of sword practice is also a kind of training for him. He has to avoid causing damage, but he also has to stimulate Song Mingyue's sword and source power to a certain extent. This requires precise control of the sword song.

Song Mingyue has only condensed six acupoints. Although her source power has improved a lot, it is still not pure enough.

This kind of training allows her to hone both her source energy and her sword, achieving two goals at once.

At 6:30 p.m., Chu Shenxiu arrived at the hotel to pick up Gao Wu and Song Mingyue.

This time it was just Chu Shenxiu alone. The three of them studied together for several months. Even though Chu Shenxiu and Song Mingyue didn't like to talk, the three of them got along very well.

"We're going to have dinner at Yuxiu Peak tonight. The restaurant on the mountaintop has a great view, and the sunset is beautiful. You can also see the Jinhe River and the night view of Donghua."

Chu Shenxiu smiled and introduced the restaurant. He had put some thought into welcoming Gao Wu by booking the entire Yuxiu Wild Garden.

Yu Xiu Ye Yuan is very famous in Donghua University, and reservations are booked a month in advance. Chu Shenxiu felt that what they ate was not important; what mattered was expressing his warm welcome.

He said, "There will be a few more guests tonight, all of them from the Chu family. Chu Yu, my cousin, and Chu Dongjun, my cousin."

"Wei Xiangjun, the youngest daughter of Lord Wei, is only 25 years old this year. She is my cousin."

The Chu family is also a powerful clan in Dongzhou with deep roots. Moreover, Chu Jiuge, a seventh-level king, is stationed in the army, making their influence in Dongzhou even stronger than that of the Dragon King.

Chu Shenxiu belonged to a collateral branch of the Chu family and had little blood relation with the direct line of the Chu family.

For various reasons, he became a disciple of the Dragon King.

Chu Shenxiu briefly introduced the Chu family's situation. He wasn't very close to the direct descendants of the Chu family, but he didn't want to offend them. He especially didn't want Gao Wu to have any unpleasantness with them.

Gao Wu then figured out the true identities of the men and women; Wei Xiangjun's mother was actually a direct descendant of the Chu family.

However, she is not Wei Qiankun's wife. If we're talking about Wei Xiangjun, then she would be considered an illegitimate child, which makes her status somewhat awkward.

The main reason is that Wei Qiankun has never been married, so all the women who are with him have no official status. As long as they gain Wei Qiankun's approval, they are considered his official children, and no one needs to laugh at anyone else.

Gao Wu knew this because none of the three Martial Saints had ever been married.

This way, they can have a large number of children without having to consider whether the child is legitimate or illegitimate; whoever has the ability can be raised.

However, his teacher, Hai Wuji, was clearly an exception, as he had no direct bloodline...

The wild garden was very simply set up, with only some bamboo fences erected around the perimeter, enclosing an area of ​​several hundred meters in diameter.

The center is a bamboo house built entirely of bamboo. The huge courtyard has been cleaned up, leaving only a round table.

The sun was hanging low over the mountaintop in the west, bathing the entire city in a rosy glow. Vehicles and pedestrians moved between the tall buildings, creating a sense of tranquility and peace amidst the hustle and bustle.

The Jin River at the foot of the mountain also glowed red, like a piece of crimson brocade.

The aroma wafting from the kitchen adds a touch of warmth and life to this beautiful landscape and bustling world.

Gao Wu was very pleased with the scene before him. This was how the world should be, this was how the mountains and rivers should be, everything was perfect...

Song Mingyue didn't have many feelings, but she was very knowledgeable about martial arts.

His peaceful teenage life was shattered by cruelty and bloodshed. Out of a sense of compensation, Gao Wu developed a particular fondness for a tranquil and peaceful life. This is parallel to his love of radical adventure and is not contradictory at all!

The arrival of Pei Jidao, Qu Tianji, Chu Dongjun, Wei Xiangjun, and Chu Yu made Gao Wu lose his mood to appreciate the scenery. He cheered himself up and chatted politely with the group.

Although Wei Xiangjun looked down on him behind his back, she was still very polite to his face, but she was instinctively distant and resistant to him.

Chu Yu was very talkative and extremely enthusiastic, perhaps even a little too enthusiastic. She took the initiative to sit next to Gao Wu, constantly throwing out topics to keep the conversation going.

Most of the people present weren't good at chatting, so having someone who could liven up the atmosphere made it much more lively.

Regardless of what the others thought in their hearts, they outwardly still flattered Gao Wu and chatted with him. After all, Gao Wu was the guest of honor.

Everyone was also interested in Gao Wu's combat record. For example, Hong Liufeng was said to have been shot to death by Gao Wu online. Even Wei Xiangjun, who disliked Gao Wu, was a little curious about it.

“Hong Liufeng was indeed shot and killed by me.”

As Gao Wu spoke, he pulled out a Crimson Thunder Eagle and placed it on the table, "This is the gun."

"How did you do that?" Chu Yu picked up the Crimson Flame Thunder Eagle without any hesitation. She skillfully removed the magazine and did a simple inspection of the gun. The gun was of good quality, but to say that it could kill a level six expert was just too far-fetched.

"Innate ability," Gao Wu replied with a smile.

Chu Yu's alluring eyes flickered, and she gently shook Gao Wu's hand, saying, "Such supernatural power, please demonstrate it to us, so that we can broaden our horizons..."

Chu Yu is over thirty years old and a level six martial arts expert, yet her charming and alluring appearance is very natural and captivating.

Gao Wu couldn't help but glance at Chu Yu's chest; the white skin was a bit dazzling, and it was too impolite to look too long!
Pei Jidao also looked curious and said, "If it's not too much trouble, Junior Brother, could you show us?"

He wasn't really trying to make things difficult for Gao Wu; adding source energy to bullets is extremely difficult. He'd only heard of it, but had never actually seen it done.

Even Wei Xiangjun showed a look of curiosity.

Gao Wu laughed and said, "It's too advanced to be shown."

He was joking, but he was also serious. Even if the White Tiger Divine Weapon Incantation were shown, they wouldn't understand it. The problem was, he didn't want to show it; there was no need.

After these words were spoken, no one knew what to say, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Chu Yu smiled and broke the silence, saying, "Such amazing abilities are not convenient to display; it would be presumptuous of me to do so."

She then said, "I've long heard of Hai Gong's unparalleled swordsmanship. Mr. Gao, surely you could demonstrate your swordsmanship for us?"

She was a bit older than Gao Wu, but since Gao Wu was Hai Wuji's disciple, she chose a more respectful form of address.

Gao Wu was about to refuse when he sensed Stowe's aura rapidly approaching.

He said, "Actually, I'm better at boxing. Since we have guests, I'll give them a demonstration and ask for your feedback."

Gao Wu stood up and raised his voice, "Stowe, are you here to die?"

From several hundred meters away came Sto's rough yet strangely toned voice: "Gao Wu, do you dare to come and fight?"

Upon hearing Stowe's voice, everyone present subtly changed their expressions. Even if they didn't know Stowe, they could tell from his powerful energy and that he was a foreigner.

Chu Dongjun, Chu Shenxiu, and Pei Jidao all possessed keen senses and immediately determined that the other party was a level six expert.

The three were even more surprised. If Gao Wu hadn't suddenly spoken up, they wouldn't have noticed Stowe's arrival.

"Come!"

Gao Wu gave a low shout, activating the Crimson Flame Flying Dragon Armor.

He is now moving at a speed of 300 meters per second, close to the speed of sound, and his whole body shoots out like an arrow with a sharp whistle.

Stoll also shouted sharply, activating his armor and raising his double-edged axe to meet the dark red figure that shot towards him.

Suddenly, a gray-white eye embedded in the chest of his armor opened, and the space in front of him was instantly shrouded in a gray-white mist.

When Gao Wu was bathed in the grayish-white light, he felt his entire body stiffen, as if he had been petrified.

But he exerted all his strength, shattering all the grayish-white light that had invaded his body. His body, empowered by the Xuanwu Divine Qi Curse, was too formidable; the opponent's petrification technique simply couldn't control him.

Gao Wu met the double-edged giant axe head-on with the "Regretful Dragon Soaring" technique, striking the axe's blade with his palm.

The giant axe paused, then was blasted away by the unparalleled force of the palm strike. Gao Wu's right palm struck Stowe's chest.

With 25 points of strength, the palm strike propelled by the berserk source power, and the sharpness enhanced by the White Tiger Divine Weapon Incantation, it directly pierced through Stoker's protective source power field.

With a deep, booming sound, Stoker exploded into a cloud of blood mist like a human bomb...

The battle between the two sides reached the sixth level. Yet, the outcome, life and death, were decided in an instant.

Chu Xiangdong, Pei Jidao, and Chu Yu all wore solemn expressions, while Wei Xiangjun's eyes revealed undisguised shock...

Qu Tianji's face was unusually pale...
