Chapter 9: Visiting the City Lord

”Welcouards said to Shen Mu the moment they saw him Yet none of them even so much as looked at Xue Wei He was the trash of town, so

If they had looked at him, they would have noticed the unh it was still weak, it was there, and it was clear that he was no longer an ordinary mortal who could not cultivate

Shen Mu pursed his lips in displeasure He wished that the guards were more polite, but just as he was about to speak, he saw that Xue Wei just smiled and shook his head alht line, but he said nothing Instead, he just dragged Xue Wei with hiuards that had all coreeted Shen Mu

The further into the mansion they went, thehow Shen Mu suddenly realized how everyone had treated hiitated by it

Since Shen Mu was in a bad h the wen's office

As they reached the office, Shen Mu finally let go of Xue Wei's wrist and straightened his clothes before he knocked on the door Although he was theCity, Shen Mu was always nervous whenever he was in front of his father

”Enter” A stoic and penetrating voice sounded out Shen Mu took a deep breath before he opened the door and let himself and Xue Wei inside

”Little Mu, little Wei, what can I do for you?” Shen Bingwen asked with a sigh as he raised his head fro, and he looked at the two of thewen asked as this was the only reason that came to mind for their sudden appearance Now that Xiao Lei was no longer here to look after Xue Wei, it was obvious that they'd go to the grown-up they trusted the hed as he did not wish to be the one in charge of this, but when his eyes landed on Xue Wei, a peculiar light shone within, and he instantly stood up, his chair knocked away, and hisout from their sockets

”Ordinary Warrior, peak fourth layer!” he exclaier that pointed at Xue Wei

He was even e in Xue Wei

The reason he was even more shocked than his son was because that he knew that beco a fourth layer Ordinary Warrior in four months was si city had started cultivating before the age of ten, but those who had started around the age of nine had hth and ninth layer

To see a child as regarded as trash suddenly reach this stage that should have taken years of ti the expression on Shen Mu's face, Xue Wei wracked his brain for an excuse as to why he suddenly beca as he was

Xue Wei was not dumb; he knew that his advance was simply too fast to be considered hu that he had ed as far as he had in such a short a I had done when I was trash had gathered into overflow When I finally broke a hole in the barrier, allowing me to cultivate, my advance would bewithin ht wen turned better after hearing what he had to say

”Xiao Lei said that?” Shen Bingwen asked, but before Xue Wei had the ti his head ”That makes sense,” he repeated to himself twice

”But does that not eniuses fairly soon?” Shen Bingwen asked after a bit of consideration, and Xue Wei nodded his head, ”I should,” he said with a bit of uncertainty Although he had ed to cultivate incredibly fast up until now, it was not certain that he could continue cultivating faster than hu the uncertainty on Xue Wei's face, Shen Bingwen sighed again ”Your uncle should have told us If we kneas only a ood-for-nothing, then I am sure that others would have treated you better I cannot understand why your uncle would let you go through this pain if it could be avoided”

Xue Wei shrugged his shoulders He could not very well say that this was just soetic and answered, ”I apologize for our selfishness, but now that it is revealed, there is no reason to keep it a secret any to let the subject go, Xue Wei sed the subject away froth

”Let us do the paperwork and have side all the other youths froed the subject, Shen Bingwen understood that there was no reason to ask questions It was highly likely that Xue Wei would just avoid thee the subject to signing up Xue Wei for the war
