Chapter 145, coercion

After the Wind and Huo Jile Island Competition, Maoshan's revenge came as promised, but what Luo Tian did not expect was that Maoshan did not come secretly this time. The team sent out to Fenghuo Jile Island openly. On the day of arrival, he even sent a letter to the inn where Luo Tian was staying, and asked Luo Tian to meet at a very private restaurant in Fenghuo Jile Island that night.

When he arrived at the door of the restaurant, the entire restaurant was already under control. No guard could be seen from the outside, but Luo Tian could see that the restaurant was surrounded by a barrier and all the surrounding streets had been cleared. It was not too late yet, but the shops around had closed and no one could be seen everywhere.

Luo Tian got off the back of the soul heart, held an envelope with the Maoshan branding logo in his hand, walked to the door of the restaurant and turned around and said, "You are waiting for me here."

He was not afraid of going to the meeting alone. It would not be so easy for the Maoshan master at the fourth level of the Void Realm to kill him. Moreover, since the person had already been killed, the beam would have to face sooner or later, so I was afraid that it would be of use.

Luo Tian raised the envelope in his hand, and the branding sign on Maoshan on the envelope quickly disappeared. The next moment, the door slowly opened, but there was still no one, but the restaurant was brightly lit and the road paving the red carpet continued to extend inward.

Luo Tian put away the envelope and walked in. Not long after entering the door, the door closed itself. Luo Tian walked along the only road in front of him. After walking about fifty steps, he heard the sound of running water. He turned to look. Next to the road was an extra-stressed courtyard, a stream surrounded by the restaurant, sand and stones laying on the ground, bamboo forests concealed flowers, and incense was lit on the low wooden table.

A guzheng, a handsome man with a handsome face and a handsome expression sat next to the wooden table, wearing a robe that looked very valuable, and a simple ring on his hand, with an ancient mark engraved on the ring. This person's hair was very long, draped over his shoulders, and his eyes were light blue, as if he was playing it carefully, and his music was sometimes slow and sometimes fast. Luo Tian didn't know much about music, but he also knew that this person played very well, so he was afraid that he had a deep foundation.

And this person should be the one who Luo Tian went to the appointment to meet.

Luo Tian walked to the stone steps of the courtyard and stood still, but did not walk over. He waited for the other party to finish playing a song before clasping his fists and said, "My younger generation Luo Tian, ​​come here for the appointment."

The other party gently brushed the strings of the piano, raised his head and looked at Luo Tian and said, "I have prepared famous tea, please invite Mr. Luo to drink a cup."

He looked very polite, but Luo Tian was not careless about it. He took off his shoes and stepped onto the stone-paved ground, and then sat on the other side of the wooden table.

The man gently tapped the table, and immediately several servants ran over and carefully put the Guzheng away. Then a tea girl with a high-profile appearance and dignified manner sat between the two of them, posing for tea. Luo Tian did not speak. Since the other party invited him, he naturally waited for the other party to speak.

After the tea girl ordered three shots, she poured a bowl for both sides and retreated. At this time, the other party said, "In Shimajima, one of the three elders on Maoshan."

Maoshan is divided into nine gates in the upper three middle three lower three and one in total, but it does not mean that the upper, middle and lower are the levels. In fact, the strength of these nine gates is almost the same. Each gate has an elder, but it is only the time of establishment, so it is divided into the title of upper, middle and lower.

Shirouen is an elder of the third sect on Maoshan, which means that he is one of the nine most powerful senior leaders in Maoshan besides the head sect. At the same time, there are eight other elders as strong as him in Maoshan, as well as a stronger sect than him. This strength is actually far beyond the Demon Fire Alliance, so Maoshan can be called an absolute sect within the Star Sect, while sects such as the Demon Fire Alliance and Taiyi Mountain can only be called large and medium-sized sects, which is one level different between the two.

After Luo Tian knew that Maoshan had sent people, he also learned about Maoshan through Wu Yu, including several of the most powerful masters in Maoshan.

Shimayuan should be between 350 and 400 years old this year. The real old monster is not the oldest in the Star Cult, but is also among the old monsters. His cultivation has reached the fourth level of the Transformation Realm and one of the nine elders of Maoshan. It is said that he practiced in Maoshan at the age of fifteen, and climbed from the grassroots to the position of the elders. It can be said that it is a miracle and it is also the goal and idol of many individual tourists in the third level of heaven.

This person is also the more rational among the nine elders of Maoshan. He considers more his own interests than Maoshan's interests.

"My younger brother Luo Tian, ​​I have heard of your name." Luo Tian was quite polite and did not speak too quickly.

After taking a sip of tea, Shimagen smiled and said, "You can taste this tea. It is a rare and good tea, which comes from a broken continent under my disciple."

Luo Tian didn't move. God knew if the other party would put something in the tea.

"Senior, let's talk about serious business. After all, I'm not here to taste tea." Luo Tian said clearly.

"Shanwang and Luowen are my disciples of the third sect, to be precise, my disciples, so the sect asked me to deal with this matter. Most of the elders in the sect were to kill you. After all, my Maoshan face was ruined by you, a kid from the world, but I still want to see you. After all, you are a talent that can be used by me, Maoshan." Shimagen said with a smile.

This seemed to see a turning point for Luo Tian. Luo Tian asked, "What does this mean by senior?"

"Shanwang and Luowen are both rare talents, especially Luowen. Although it is said that he is the most genius disciple of Maoshan in the past five hundred years, this is a bit exaggerated. It cannot be denied that he is indeed a good seedling. He is also a junior who I have tried my best to cultivate and give a lot of resources. But I was killed by you. The resources I put on them in the past, and the costs I invested in Maoshan cannot be recovered. Running a sect is like doing business, and it is all about profit. If you kill my people, it will ruin my business. If you can compensate for my losses, then there is no need for us to fight with swords."

This is very utilitarian, but Shimagen's words do not contain much hostility, which is good news for Luo Tian.

"How do you want me to compensate you for your losses?" Luo Tian asked.

"It's very simple. If you join me, I will take you back to Maoshan. From then on, you will serve Maoshan as a disciple of Maoshan. I will settle this matter." This condition really surprised Luo Tian.

Seeing that Luo Tian didn't speak, the other party continued to say after drinking tea: "This is also a god-given opportunity for you. I, Maoshan, always value talents. If you are so young, you have such cultivation. It is a rare and malleable talent. If you join me, you will be able to inherit my mantle and become the elder of Maoshan, and even in the end you may take charge of Maoshan and become the head teacher. This is something that many individual tourists in the world dream of. Only when you have the strength to start, I will give you this opportunity and hope that you will not let my high expectations down."

The so-called opportunity given by Shimayuan looks good, but if you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to find that the other party seems to be trying to win over and actually is coercing Luo Tian to become Maoshan's thug. It is unknown whether he can become the head sect or elder in the future. Once Luo Tian agrees, he is afraid that he will be controlled by Maoshan from now on and become a chess piece in Maoshan.

This is also the reason why Luo Tian has been reluctant to join the sect since the beginning of the world. In addition to the Yueying Society, Luo Tian has always been walking in the world as an individual guest.

Because if you join a sect, it is equivalent to becoming someone else's pawn. Whether the boss is good to you depends entirely on the boss's own wishes. Once you become someone else's pawn, it will be difficult to get rid of it.

Joining a sect has both pros and cons. You seem to have gained resources and a backer and a future for development, but you lose the power to decide your destiny independently. For Luo Tian, ​​freedom and control of your own destiny are above everything else.

"Can I ask if one day I want to leave after joining Maoshan, will you let me go?" Luo Tian asked.

"Haha..." Shimagen smiled and said, "If you want to leave after entering Maoshan, you can, but you can leave as a mortal, so that you will not become a trouble for Maoshan."

"In other words, if I join Maoshan one day, all my cultivation will be destroyed, right?" Luo Tian asked.
