Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All



Tie Zhu took a bite of the grilled fish and continued, "Perhaps Brother Liu felt that he had a lot to do with me being so fat, so he told me about the Secret Realm and even said that he would bring me along. I thought that if the three of us came together, he would agree to bring you along. He also said that he had no other friends."

...

Dong Xi never dreamed that this was the reason.

Dong Xi did not know what to say. After a while, Tie Zhu had finished all the grilled fish. Tie Zhu raised his hand and used a cleaning spell. Tie Zhu said, "Junior Sister, don't underestimate this Secret Realm. Brother Liu said that there are indeed many good things in this Secret Realm... Something about ice."

Tie Zhu frowned, looking distressed.

Dong Xi was stunned, and her heart thumped.

The cultivation technique began to circulate without any warning, and a name immediately appeared in his mind.

"Is it Deep Sea Ice?" asked Dong Xi.

Tie Zhu was stunned for a moment before saying, "That's right, that's right. That's the name. Look at my brain. I can't remember anything."

When Dong Xi heard this, she was a little excited. Dong Xi said, "Yes, I must go! I came for this Deep Sea Ice."

Tie Zhu was not surprised to see Dong Xi so excited. He said, "I knew it. No iron elementalist would be able to reject such a good thing."

Rui Ming looked at the two people's excited expressions and suddenly felt a little distressed. Rui Ming said, "If I had known this would happen, I would have recovered later. I could have gone to the Secret Realm with you."

Dong Xi and Tie Zhu, who were originally excited, instantly fell silent when they heard this.

Dong Xi glared at Rui Ming. Dong Xi said in disdain, "A full man really doesn't know how hungry a hungry man is."

"Junior Sister is right," Tie Zhu immediately said.

"Forget it, you guys go. I'll stay in the Shangguan Residence and clean up the mess." Rui Ming sighed lightly.

Dong Xi was a little worried. She said, "Senior Brother, why don't you wait for me to come back and stay with you? Shangguan Patriarch is full of tricks. I'm afraid you'll fall into his trap."

"Junior Sister, have you forgotten that he already has a contract with me?" said Rui Ming with a smile.

Moreover, Shangguan Yun'er still had to rely on Rui Ming to continue living. Now, the Shangguan family was under Rui Ming's control, and they still dared to rebel?

Dong Xi thought that this was also the case. Dong Xi said, "I just feel that you're too kind and shouldn't care about such a trivial matter."

Tie Zhu was confused. He could not understand a single word these two said.

However, Tie Zhu was very smart. He did not ask what he should not know and just lowered his head to eat the grilled fish.

Not long after, Cui Liu served two more sets of grilled fish. Dong Xi realized that this fish was really different from the others.

There was no such thing as seasoning in the cultivation world. It was already good enough to add salt. Basically, they were all concerned about the original taste.

However, Cui Liu's grilled fish actually had something on top of it. It was fluorescent, and Dong Xi did not dare to eat it for a moment.

However, seeing that Senior Brother Rui Ming had already finished one, Dong Xi also took a bite.

It was indeed very good. This seasoning had a little mint flavor, which just got rid of the fishy smell.

The fish meat was also very chewy. Dong Xi suspected that Cui Liu had used his Qi cultivation technique on the grilled fish.

Dong Xi ate the fish meat in her mouth and felt the warmth in her Dantian.

Dong Xi immediately understood why Senior Brother Tie Zhu had been eating grilled fish. This fish could actually condense spiritual energy in the body!

Before Dong Xi could calm down, a group of people barged in and overturned a few tables. One of them shouted arrogantly, "Cui Liu, get out here immediately."

Dong Xi was shocked and almost dropped the fish in her hand.

Dong Xi looked at the few people who came in. They were all dressed like locals and all of them were fierce. Could they be gangsters?

Dong Xi subconsciously looked at Tie Zhu. Senior Tie Zhu was very loyal. If he did not even know what was going on, he would directly help Brother Liu and cause trouble.

As expected, Tie Zhu immediately became anxious, as if he was a little aggrieved.

Fortunately, Tie Zhu was still rational and sat in his seat obediently.

Dong Xi heaved a sigh of relief. However, when she looked over, why was Senior Brother Tie Zhu's posture not right?

Dong Xi subconsciously looked at Senior Brother Rui Ming. The moment the two of them looked at each other, Dong Xi instantly understood.

Just now, he was still thinking that Senior Brother Tie Zhu had good self-control today, but it turned out that Senior Brother Rui Ming was controlling him from the side!

Tie Zhu could not speak or move. He could only stare at these people fiercely.
