Chapter 997 Wu Kaisheng's Decision
Soon, Duan Qing flew to the side of the flying boat, glanced at the people on the flying boat, and nodded slightly to Xia Wushuang.
Like Yu Youwei, Xia Wushuang, Wu Kaisheng and others were also shocked to see that Duan Qing's cultivation was only in the late stage of the Spiritual Sea Realm.
Everyone had never expected that a person in the late stage of the Spiritual Sea Realm would have such a terrifying speed.
Although Duan Qing's cultivation was not in the expected Spiritual Life Realm, Wu Kaisheng still did not dare to neglect it. He directly opened the shield of the flying boat and made a gesture of invitation to Duan Qing.
Duan Qing was not polite either. He withdrew the Vermillion Bird Wing and other spells and landed steadily on the flying boat.
Seeing this, Xia Wushuang strode forward and said with emotion: "My dear friend Duan, I really didn't expect that you and I could meet under such circumstances."
"After many years of not seeing each other, my dear friend's cultivation is even better than before!"
Duan Qing smiled lightly: "Senior Xia, you are too kind. Every time I see Senior Xia, I always feel ashamed of myself."
He was not just saying this for show.
Thinking back to the first time he met Xia Wushuang in Liuyue City, he was only in the late stage of the Questioning Heart Realm. He was trapped by love and his heart was flawed. He had been stuck in the Questioning Heart Realm for many years and could not break through.
Because he learned from him that his enemy was dead, he finally untied the knot in his heart for many years.
A few years later, he went to Xia's house to find Sheng'er and found that Xia Wushuang had broken through to the middle stage of the Spiritual Sea Realm in just a few years.
Now, only ten years have passed, and Xia Wushuang has actually broken through to the early stage of the Spiritual Life Realm!
This speed of cultivation really makes him sigh.
From this, it can be seen that Xia Wushuang is indeed a genius.
However, it may also be related to Xia Wushuang's staying in the Questioning Heart Realm for many years and accumulating strength.
Once his heart knot is untied, his thoughts are clear, and with his genius, he can't stop once he breaks through.
After receiving such praise from Duan Qing, Xia Wushuang smiled knowingly, with a little satisfaction on his face, and did not say any more polite words.
He looked at the three Wu Kaishengs, pointed at Duan Qing and introduced him: "This is Duan Qing from the Shinto Sect. Little friend Duan, we are old friends."
When mentioning the word "old friend", Xia Wushuang deliberately emphasized his tone.
After introducing Duan Qing to the three Wu Kaishengs, he introduced the three Wu Kaishengs to Duan Qing again.
"Little friend Duan, this is the head of the Wu family, Taoist friend Wu Kaisheng, Taoist friend Wu Kaiwen, the second brother of Taoist friend Wu Kaisheng, and Taoist friend Wu Kaiyuan, the third brother."
As soon as Xia Wushuang finished speaking, Duan Qing immediately bowed to the three Wu Kaishengs with a smile on his face and said: "Junior Duan Qing from the Shinto Sect, meet the three Wu seniors."
While speaking, he seemed very relaxed, but in fact he was a little nervous inside, fully alert, ready to activate the Void Hat at any time to be safe.
Because he was not sure whether the three Wu Kaishengs knew about his grievances with the Wu family.
If the three recognized him as the one who killed Wu Lan and Wu Li, and wanted to investigate what happened back then, then he would have to let Xia Wushuang down and run away.
These were three masters of the Spiritual Life Realm, especially Wu Kaisheng, who was in the late stage of the Spiritual Life Realm!
Fortunately, the three did not do anything unusual, but just nodded to Duan Qing one after another.
Wu Kaisheng looked Duan Qing up and down, and asked Duan Qing with some doubt: "As a disciple of the Shinto sect, why did you act alone?"
He did not doubt Duan Qing's identity. After all, the Suzaku Wings that Duan Qing had just used could not be faked, and Xia Wushuang helped to confirm his identity.
He simply thought it was strange that Duan Qing acted alone, and he was a little curious.
Duan Qing was a little helpless, and explained casually: "Something happened and I was separated from the others in the sect!"
He wanted to go with Meng Zhuang, but unfortunately the weather was not good.
Wu Kaisheng suddenly realized, but he didn't know what to say next.
He wanted to join forces with Duan Qing before, thinking that Duan Qing was a cultivator of the Spiritual Life Realm like him, and after joining forces, their strength would surpass those followers behind them, and they would become the host.
However, now that he found out that Duan Qing's cultivation was only in the late Spiritual Sea Realm, he was in a dilemma.
A cultivator in the late Spiritual Sea Realm was almost negligible to the five people in the Spiritual Life Realm.
In this case, it would be inappropriate to discuss with Duan Qing about becoming the host.
If Duan Qing made a mistake during the conflict with those followers, it would be troublesome for his Wu family!
Thinking of this, Wu Kaisheng immediately made a plan.
It would be better not to cause trouble to those followers, and just let it go.
Anyway, those followers must have seen Duan Qing boarding the flying boat, and they were so far away, so they probably didn't know that Duan Qing was only in the late Spiritual Sea Realm.
If those guys knew what was good for them, they would retreat when they saw the difficulty.
Thinking of this, Wu Kaisheng looked back to see what those followers behind him were doing.
However, he was a little surprised when he saw it.
He saw a dragon boat still stubbornly following dozens of miles away, as if there was no sign of giving up.
Are these followers crazy? Do they have to fight to the death?
Wu Kaisheng looked very ugly.
Noticing that Wu Kaisheng looked different, Duan Qing and others also looked back and saw the persevering dragon boat in the distance.
Wu Kaiyuan, the youngest of the Wu family, was indignant: "These bugs are really shameless!"
"Brother, if you keep holding back, those bugs really think that there is no one in my Middle Earth!"
Wu Kaisheng glared at Wu Kaiyuan: "You are so stupid!"
"If they want to chase, let them chase, and see how long they can catch up!"
Wu Kaisheng's attitude made Duan Qing feel a little relieved.
He boarded the flying boat just to show off his strength with Wu Kaisheng and others, so as to indirectly resolve Xia Wushuang's troubles.
If Wu Kaisheng really got carried away and dragged him to fight the pursuers behind, it would be a headache for him.
After Wu Kaiyuan was yelled at by Wu Kaisheng, his face turned red. He walked to a corner of the flying boat angrily and slammed the side railing of the flying boat, making a loud "bang".
Everyone glanced at Wu Kaiyuan, but didn't know what to say. For a moment, the flying boat fell into silence.
Duan Qing saw that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he casually asked Xia Wushuang: "Senior Xia, where are those pursuers behind us?"
Xia Wushuang sighed: "Hey, five demon cultivators have been chasing us for half an hour!"
After that, Xiang Wushuang seemed to have thought of something, glanced at Duan Qing, and said uncertainly: "Maybe you have seen one of them!"
Duan Qing was quite surprised: "Why do you say that, Senior Xia?"
Xia Wushuang thought for a while and explained: "Among the five demon cultivators, one of the true body seems to be a golden-winged Roc. I heard that it used to be active in the Sea in the Bottle."
"My dear Duan, you were born in the Small South Realm and have stayed in the Three Heavens. I wonder if you have seen the golden-winged Roc?"
Duan Qing was even more surprised when he heard this.
Golden-winged Roc?
Dugu Qiuyu?
As far as he knew, there seemed to be only one golden-winged Roc true spirit on this Tianming Star, Dugu Qiuyu!
Moreover, Dugu Qiuyu had already died at his hands, and his body was still in the spirit beast ring on his wrist!
Dugu Qiuyu was dead, so who was the golden-winged Roc mentioned by Xia Wushuang?
