1454  Encountering Tianpeng Again (3)

As long as he didn't encounter Grotto-Heaven realm experts, Peng Jiuyuan should be enough to deal with them.

If not for the fact that Peng Jiuyuan was too weak, with the power of the Eight-Nine Arcane Art that was equivalent to half of Zhou Shu's realm, even ordinary Grotto-Heaven realm experts might not be his match.

Seeing that Zhou Shu was deep in thought, Peng Jiuyuan said carefully, "Lord, what do I need to do?"

The Peng family's ancestral teachings were that the person who made the Eight Trigrams Mirror glow would be the master of the Peng family.

But the Peng family's ancestral teachings didn't specify what they needed to do.

Moreover, the Peng family had already declined to this extent. Peng Jiyuan had never thought that he would encounter this person who could make the Eight Trigrams Mirror shine. He had never thought that he could do anything.

In fact, there was only so much he could do.

He was just a country bumpkin. He didn't have talent that could warp and weft the earth, nor did he have the strength to go on a rampage.

"I don't need you to do anything." Zhou Shu shook his head. Just like Peng Jiuyuan, Zhou Shu had never thought that he would meet someone from the Peng family.

Zhou Shu pondered and said, "I need to rest in Boundary Bridge Village for a period of time. Is it convenient for me to rest at your place?"

"It's convenient. Naturally." Peng Jiuyuan heaved a sigh of relief. He had thought that Zhou Shu would make some overboard request.

"Boundary Bridge Village is located at the border of the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom. The nearest village is dozens of kilometers away. Under normal circumstances, no outsiders will come to Boundary Bridge Village."

Peng Jiuyuan knew that Zhou Shu was injured. Moreover, if the ancestral teachings of the Peng family were true, then the person in front of him was probably a great enemy of the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom.

Even if Peng Jiuyuan hadn't seen much, he could guess that Zhou Shu's identity couldn't be revealed.

"The villagers of Boundary Bridge Village are very friendly. There's no problem living here."

"Thank you." Zhou Shu cupped his hands weakly.

He was already weak. Previously, in order to save Peng Jiuyuan, he had tried his best to use his divine ability Unparalleled Benevolence. He had consumed a lot of energy.

After talking for so long, he was extremely tired.

Peng Jiuyuan could also tell that Zhou Shu was exhausted. "Lord, rest here first. I'll go out and explain to the village chief and the others.

"During this period of time, I can only trouble you to pretend to be the son of an old friend."

Peng Jiuyuan suddenly patted his head. "By the way, Lord, the people of the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom are all from the nine surnames of Zhu Rong. I'm afraid you will need an alias."

Peng Jiuyuan explained briefly. It turned out that the people of the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom had a total of nine surnames.

Ji, Dong, Peng, Tu, Yun, Cao, Chao, Mi.

All the surnames of the people of the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom were one of these nine.

This was why the village chief had such a huge reaction when Zhou Shu called himself Nameless.

Not a single person from the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom didn't have a surname among the nine surnames.

This was completely different from the ancestral land. There were countless surnames in the ancestral land. Even if someone didn't have a surname, it wasn't surprising…

"In that case…" Zhou Shu pondered. "In the future, call me Cao Shu in front of outsiders."

"Cao Shu?" Peng Jiuyuan nodded. "Alright, it just so happens that Little Yue is also surnamed Cao. I can tell the village chief and the others that you're Little Yue's distant uncle."

"Cao Yue…" Zhou Shu asked.

"When I was young, I traveled around the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom. At the time, I met Cao Yue's father and became friends with him," Peng Jiuyuan said.

"Later, I knew that my talent was limited and that it was difficult for me to achieve anything in the Martial Dao, so I returned here.

"Later, Cao Yue's father died in a vendetta, so I brought him back to Boundary Bridge Village."

It was a very clichéd story, but it was thrilling enough for ordinary people.

Peng Jiuyuan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Brother Cao instructed before he died that he only wanted Little Yue to live a peaceful and happy life. He didn't want him to cultivate the Martial Dao…"

Zhou Shu smiled. He naturally understood what Peng Jiuyuan meant.

Peng Jiuyuan didn't want him to implicate Cao Yue.

In his heart, he probably still thought that he was a great villain.

Zhou Shu didn't explain. He smiled and said, "Peng Jiuyuan, your strength will last twenty-four hours. After twenty-four hours, it will disappear on its own. If you're interested, I can give you some pointers on the Martial Dao."

Peng Jiuyuan stopped in his tracks. Would the power in his body disappear?

He shook his head. So be it. In any case, he didn't need much strength in Boundary Bridge Village.

He had been alive and well all these years.

"There's no need, Lord. My Martial Dao aptitude is very poor. I can't cultivate anything," Peng Jiuyuan said.

"Suit yourself," Zhou Shu said indifferently. "Be careful of that lunatic in the back mountain. If he appears again, don't let him hurt the people in the village."

"Yes." Peng Jiuyuan nodded and walked out of the room.

Then Zhou Shu heard the exclamations of everyone outside the room.

In a short period of time, the wounds on Peng Jiuyuan's body had already healed. This was definitely a miracle for the mountain dwellers.

Zhou Shu didn't care how Peng Jiuyuan explained it to the villagers.

He sat down on the bed and began to circulate his spiritual essence. No matter what, the most important thing for him in the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom was to recover his strength.

…

After an unknown period of time, a small head appeared at the door and sneakily looked into the room.

Zhou Shu's heart stirred as he opened his eyes.

"Little Brother Cao?" Zhou Shu's lips curled up slightly as he waved at Cao Yue. "Why are you looking for me?"

"Uncle, are you really a legendary martial artist?" Cao Yue walked into the room and looked at Zhou Shu curiously.

"Legendary martial artist?" Zhou Shu was stunned. He smiled. "I guess so."

A martial artist was a martial artist. There was no such thing as a legendary martial artist.

"I've cultivated some Martial Dao, but what I'm really good at is forging weapons, so I wasn't lying when I said I was a craftsman."

"Forging weapons?" Cao Yue said curiously. "Just like Uncle Peng forge ironware? Uncle Peng is amazing. All the weapons used to hunt in the village were made by Uncle Peng."

Zhou Shu smiled and nodded. Weapons used by ordinary people don't need forging skills.

Cao Yue hesitated for a moment and asked with a conflicted expression, "Uncle, can you teach me the skills you used to save Uncle Peng?"
