Heavenly War God

As for the onlookers, their faces were filled with envy.    

What was Xiahou Lieh's identity? He was the dignified Lord of Lai Yuan City, the patriarch of the Xiahou Family, Young Master!    

Xiahou Young Master Lieh liked to fight for justice, and he was very warmhearted. He was also very warm to everyone.    

Moreover, he often led a team personally to drive out the big demons in the vicinity of Lai Yuan City. He was very loved by the residents of Lai Yuan City. However, there were very few people in the Lai Yuan City who could truly enter Xiahou Lieh's eyes.    

Furthermore, it was worth inviting him to his home, and even hiring him as a foreign delegate. As for this young man in front of him, he had actually rejected Xiahou Young Master Lieh's invitation just now.    

Even though Xiahou Young Master Lieh had invited him again and again, he had agreed to it, but his expression was so calm. Could it be that his status was higher than Xiahou Young Master Lieh's?    

"Hehe, Brother Shen Yih, this way please." Xiahou Lieh didn't pay any attention to the thoughts of these people. Instead, he brought Shen Yih to the Xiahou Family.    

Wan Lingxiu understood that Xiahou Lieh must have something very important to do in order to find Shen Yih. So, after inviting Shen Yih, she asked him to come to the Chamber of Commerce Bailee when he had time. After that, she said goodbye to him.    

Soon, they arrived at a luxurious mansion.    

Looking at the mansion, Shen Yih nodded slightly.    

Not only was the mansion luxurious, it also occupied an excellent location. There were also many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasuress planted in it, causing the surroundings to be covered with spiritual energy.    

Furthermore, there was a formation set up inside the mansion, used to gather the surrounding spiritual energy.    

If it was the Cultivation inside, it would definitely have twice the result with half the effort.    

"Hehe, this is our Xiahou Family. What do you think, Brother Shen Yih?" Xiahou Lieh asked complacently.    

The ancestors of the Xiahou Family had once produced a formation master, which was why they were able to build a mansion of this grade.    

Among the aristocrats, the Xiahou Family could only be ranked at the bottom. However, when it came to this mansion, it was definitely more precious than most of the mansions of the nobles.    

Xiahou Lieh's face was full of pride as he was about to introduce the formation of this mansion, but he didn't expect Shen Yih to nod his head lightly. "That's right, this spirit gathering formation is quite interesting."    

Xiahou Lieh's expression stiffened, and he forced the words of introduction back into his mind. Although Shen Yih said it was good, his face was still as calm as before.    

He really didn't understand. Was it because he was being polite, or did he really think that it was not bad?    

"Hehe, brother Shen Yih, your eyesight is really good. Please come in." Xiahou Lieh put away his awkwardness and brought Shen Yih into the courtyard, letting him prepare the banquet.    

Sitting in front of the banquet, Xiahou Lieh looked at Shen Yih from head to toe and said with a sigh. "Brother Shen Yih, I really didn't believe it at first. There was someone who could kill the Toad Wood Ancient Snake in the Sight Stage. I only understood it when I saw you. What did he mean by 'there's someone better than me'? " Can I ask brother Shen Yih about your current realm? "    

Seventh level Sight Stage. " Shen Yih said. There was nothing to hide.    

"Only Seventh level Sight Stage?" Xiahou Lieh sucked in a breath of cold air. He could sense that Shen Yih's cultivation base wasn't very high.    

The strongest part of Shen Yih's body wasn't his cultivation base, but those mysterious Cultivation Technique. Also, during the battle just now, Shen Yih seemed to be able to see through his Cultivation Technique. He could always dodge at the most appropriate time, and he could always find the flaws of his Cultivation Technique and attack.    

However, Xiahou Lieh had never thought that Shen Yih was only at the seventh level of the Sight Stage.    

With the strength of a seventh level Sight Stage, killing a half-step Taoist's Toad Wood Ancient Snake was just too unbelievable.    

"Brother Shen Yih, amazing!" Xiahou Lieh gave him a thumbs up and said, "I have seen many geniuses, but this is the first time I have seen a genius like brother Shen Yih."    

"Brother Xiahou, why don't you tell me what you want me to do?" Shen Yih said in a flat tone.    

Whether it was polite words or respectful words, he had seen too many of them and had long become immune to them.    

Xiahou Lieh's mouth twitched. This was his home, but why did it feel like he was being led around by someone?    

"Then I'll tell you the truth." Xiahou Lieh hesitated and said seriously, "Brother Shen Yih, I invited you this time because I really need your help. "This matter not only concerns our Xiahou Family, but also your own future."    

Xiahou Lieh paused for a moment and continued to ask, "Brother Shen Yih, have you heard about the 'Heavenly Selection'?"    

Heavenly Selection?    

Shen Yih shook his head slightly. He had only been in Lai Yuan City for more than half a month, and had spent most of his time in seclusion. He didn't know much about these things.    

"Brother Shen Yih, this matter is of great importance. What I need your help with is the matter of the Heavenly Selection." Xiahou Lieh said seriously, "This time, the royal family will lead the various noble families and prepare to personally select a group of geniuses in this dynasty. These geniuses will be of great use to the royal family. "    

The royal family will personally lead the various noble families?    

Shen Yih also felt that something was unusual. The royal family did not lack geniuses. There must be a reason why they created a Heavenly Selection in such a grand manner.    

"Brother Shen Yih, the royal family values this matter very much, and they even promised a great reward. If you can stand out in this Heavenly Selection, you will be able to obtain a huge amount of resources and resources, allowing you to soar to the heavens with a single leap." Xiahou Lieh said in a longing manner.    

"In that case, Brother Xiahou, you can participate in this Heavenly Selection by yourself. Why do you need my help?" Shen Yih asked curiously.    

"Sigh. Brother Shen Yih, to tell you the truth, if I had the qualifications, I wouldn't have to worry about this matter." Xiahou Lieh shook his head bitterly. "There are hundreds of nobles in the royal family, big and small. There are countless geniuses in the royal family. Me?"    

Xiahou Lieh said with a bitter smile, "They gave me face in Lai Yuan City and respected me as the number one genius. However, among the nobles, I am just a nobody. "    

"Besides, our Xiahou Family is also at the end of this noble race. Otherwise, we wouldn't be guarding this remote Lai Yuan City."    

"Also, this time, it's said that the Imperial Family will not only use the War of Celestial Chosen to filter out the geniuses they want. " Furthermore, the royal family is preparing to reshuffle us nobles. " If the Xiahou Family can't even find a decent genius at that time, I'm afraid that the Xiahou Family will be in danger. "    

Xiahou Lieh said without hiding anything from Shen Yih.    

They didn't have too many extravagant desires towards the War of Celestial Chosen, and they understood that this wasn't something they could touch. All they wanted was to keep their current status.    

These days, the Xiahou Family had thought of all kinds of methods to find and win over those geniuses.    

However, most of these geniuses in the dynasty were cultivated by the various noble families. The rare geniuses that did not belong to the other noble families were not famous. They had long been won over by the other noble families, or were waiting for the price to be sold. They did not care about the declining noble families of the Xiahou Family at all.    

As for those hidden geniuses, they were too rare.    

"Brother Shen Yih, I have something to say. You are the only genius that I have found that can bring hope to the Xiahou Family."    

"I don't expect you to get a good ranking. As long as you can maintain the noble status of our Xiahou Family, that will do."    

"I am willing to promise you on behalf of our Xiahou Family. At that time, I will definitely give you some important Cultivation resources, as well as rewards. " Of course, if you have any other requests, just tell me. As long as I can agree to it, I will never frown. " Xiahou Lieh stood up and said.    

They were looking for True Human Stage geniuses, at least half-step Taoist. But now, Xiahou Lieh had nowhere to go, so he placed all his hopes on Shen Yih.    

After all, Shen Yih was someone who could even kill Toad Wood Ancient Snake, and his chances of winning was higher than his own.    

Shen Yih nodded slightly. Only now did he understand why Lin Huan and Duan Yihong didn't have to worry about coming to Hundred Thousand Demonic Beast Mountain. They even created the Three Sects Large Competition to filter out the geniuses of Hundred Thousand Demonic Beast Mountain.    

In the end, they even took Xue Xiaochai away. It was because Xue Xiaochai had broken through to the True Human Stage at the critical moment, and it was all because of the War of Celestial Chosen this time.    

It seemed like the War of Celestial Chosen of the royal family was not only involved in the ranking of the nobles, but also the plan of the royal family.    

Shen Yih's interest was piqued for a moment.    

However, Shen Yih still underestimated Xue Xiaochai's opportunity, because Xue Xiaochai was not only Lin Huan's Lin Family, but also Duan Yihong's Duan Family. Both of them wanted to find a hidden genius, which was why they came to Hundred Thousand Demonic Beast Mountain. It was because the royal family had paid a huge price to come here.    

Of course, this wasn't important to Shen Yih.    

Currently, the main focus was still the War of Celestial Chosen.    

Xiahou Lieh really suited Shen Yih's taste.    

He was indeed a broad-minded person. When he was begging someone to do something, he didn't hide anything. Also, it just so happened that he had some interest in the War of Celestial Chosen.    

"Brother Shen Yih, have you thought about it?" Xiahou Lieh asked anxiously when he saw that Shen Yih hadn't said anything.    

Shen Yih nodded and said, "Yes, I promise you."    

"Really?" Xiahou Lieh said with joy, "Haha, good! Brother Shen Yih, if you need anything, just tell me. Oh right, come here! Bring my maid here. "    

After Xiahou Lieh finished speaking, A dozen or so beautiful young girls walked over with red faces. They bowed to them.    

"Haha, brother Shen Yih, these maids are here to serve you. Are you satisfied with them? If you are not satisfied, I will help you find a new one." Xiahou Lieh said.    

Shen Yih shook his head and said. "No need, I'm not used to this. I have two friends who are still in the inn. I'll have to trouble Brother Xiahou to invite them over. As for the maids, I really don't need them. "    

"Alright then." Xiahou Lieh saw that Shen Yih was determined not to need these maids, so he did not force him. Very quickly, he sent someone to invite Tan Qi and Luo Yingying over.
