A Top Scholar in Everything

Chapter 1270: Chapter 1256: Zhao Mingzhu

The hardness of the demon species heart was beyond Baiyu’s imagination.

He even felt.

That this heart, after being roasted by flames, actually became a touch stronger, as if it had absorbed the energy of the fire.

Baiyu frowned slightly.

This demon species heart seemed somewhat sinister.

At this moment.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard at the gate of the courtyard.

Baiyu turned to look and saw a nobleman with a face like jade, dressed in a white robe, smiling and saying, "To destroy a demon species, you need to use opposing elemental powers to counteract its demonic power completely."

Baiyu looked at him.

The nobleman smiled slightly, extended his hand, and said, "If you trust me, I can help you solve the problem."

Upon hearing this.

Baiyu took a deep breath and then pointed with one finger, directly tossing the demon species over.

The man in the white robe caught it with a smile, and a white light rose from his hand, directly evaporating the demon species’ Dao Heart inch by inch.

Before long.

This extremely evil-looking heart turned into a pile of ashes, which fell to the ground.

"May I ask how you are addressed, my friend?"

Baiyu’s heart grew wary.

Cultivators in Shuangjiang City knew of his identity, though it was unclear how they discerned it.

But his experiences in Shuangjiang City.

Taught him a lesson.

Those cultivators could directly discern his identity, as an outsider demon, he ought to be the public enemy of the Immortal Cultivation Realm, so if this man discerned Baiyu’s identity, he would surely take action.

However.

The other party seemed not to recognize Baiyu.

"May I come in and sit, my friend?"

"This is not my Daoist Temple, so I do not have the right to let you in, but I can ask for you."

Baiyu replied.

The man nodded, his face with a gentle smile, not arrogantly or impatiently waiting outside the door.

The old Daoist was very detached.

So the handsome man quickly received permission to enter the Daoist Temple.

"How should I address you? I am Zhao Mingzhu, pleased to meet you."

The handsome man smiled and greeted Baiyu.

"I am Geman."

Baiyu responded.

"Geman, that somewhat resembles the names from the northern desert, but you don’t seem like a person from there."

Zhao Mingzhu sat on a bench in the courtyard.

His expression was calm.

With a slight smile.

Baiyu responded, "Indeed, I’m not from the northern desert."

"Why are you here, my friend?"

"Chased by enemies, I was forced to wander here, fortunately, the old Daoist of this temple has a benevolent mind and was willing to offer help, otherwise, I would still be adrift in this great mountain."

"I see..."

"Then why are you here, my friend?"

Baiyu looked at him.

Zhao Mingzhu’s cultivation was not weak, quite strong compared to ordinary cultivators, even slightly stronger than the elders of the Taiyi Sword Sect.

Such strength.

In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, it should be considered a not weak realm.

In response to Baiyu’s inquiry, Zhao Mingzhu chuckled and said, "Looking for someone, someone who doesn’t belong here but has come here nonetheless."

Baiyu raised an eyebrow.

Then smiled and asked, "Have you found this person, my friend?"

"You could say I have, but you could also say I haven’t. However, I am different from ordinary cultivators, outsider demons are just a term used by the ignorant, nothing more."

Zhao Mingzhu said with a smile.

Baiyu also chuckled, continuing to ask, "Then may I ask, what do you intend to do with this person?"

Zhao Mingzhu said solemnly, "Nothing major, just want to discuss their views on the Profound Origin Realm."

"What views?"

"For example, as it is now, High Tier cultivators using Low Tier cultivators as feed, Righteous cultivators like vampires stationed in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, constantly extracting benefits. While those demonic cultivators act recklessly and cause wanton slaughter."

Zhao Mingzhu’s eyes carried a trace of coldness, "What do you think of such an Immortal Cultivation Realm, my friend?"

"I don’t care much."

Baiyu said solemnly, "I am not concerned with the matters within the Immortal Cultivation Realm. You know, we reclusive cultivators, unlike you worldly cultivators, have different views on many things."

Zhao Mingzhu nodded, somewhat helplessly said, "Indeed. But, my friend, have you truly come from the Outer World to this place just to do nothing and leave?"

Cultivators from the Outer World.

Should find some spiritual artifacts and magical treasures in the Profound Origin Realm quite useful. If you are willing to take action, I can offer you a satisfactory reward."

Zhao Mingzhu stood up, respectfully bowed to Baiyu, appearing quite tense.

At this point.

Baiyu said solemnly, "Why did you come to me?"

"Because you are strong enough, come from the Outer World, and have no ties in the Profound Origin Realm, I can be at ease working with you."

Zhao Mingzhu said in a low voice.

Baiyu raised an eyebrow, looking at this somewhat unique cultivator, and asked solemnly, "What do you know about the Outer World?"

Zhao Mingzhu smiled and said, "Not much, but I know clearly, the Profound Origin Realm is just a small place. Since ancient times, the Upper Realm where the Ascenders of the Profound Origin Realm go should be the area where you reside.

The Outer World should be vast.

If I could also ascend one day, perhaps I could go out and see."

Baiyu didn’t know if Ascenders from the Profound Origin Realm went to the Divine Central Continent, but indeed, the power within the Profound Origin Realm was overall much lower than outside.

"Then cooperating with me, an outsider demon, aren’t you straying from the path and becoming the public enemy of the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm?"

Baiyu had a somewhat amused expression.

However.

The other party did not deny this statement but said, "What I want to do inherently defies conventions, acts contrary to the world. A slight misstep could lead to ruin, everlasting damnation. But I believe this world needs change.

This decaying old world needs someone to break the rules.

I might not be the one to change the world, but I can be the first to stand out."

Baiyu, hearing this,

smiled and said, "Aren’t you afraid I’ll tell others what you’ve said?"

Zhao Mingzhu smiled, "I’m not afraid because you are an outsider demon, no one will believe what you say.

And those who would believe you.

Should share similar thoughts to mine."

"You see things very clearly, my friend, but I’m not interested in this. Whether it’s the struggle between righteousness and demonic forces in the Profound Origin Realm or other matters, I have no intention to get involved, you might be disappointed."

Baiyu gestured.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mingzhu’s face briefly showed a hint of death, but he still smiled and said, "Alright then, let’s not discuss this in the future, just be friends.

I am very eager about the world outside the Profound Origin Realm.

Can you tell me about the outside world, my friend?"

Saying this.

Zhao Mingzhu took out a jar of fine wine, along with several small dishes.
