Chapter 2233: Something Wrong With Him

“Who is outside?” Su Mo’s eyebrows furrowed together and he sighed to himself. With that, he opened his eyes and allowed his Deity Senses to spread out and check what was happening.

There were about seven to eight young men outside the palace doors. These men were unable to enter the palace and were using palm prints to lightly break the array around the door.

“Is Junior Shangguan around? We are disciples of Deep Thousand hall. Junior has just arrived at Deep Thousand Hall, why not introduce yourself?” The leading black-shirted young man smiled as he shouted.

“Junior, why don’t you show yourself?” Another purple-shirted young man asked.

“Junior Shangguan, we are your seniors who specially came to visit you with the best tea from Great Xia Region!” Another white shirt senior said.

The crowd shouted loudly but Nine Heavens Hall remained silent.

Slowly, the faces of the group fell. They knew that Su Mo was in Nine Heavens Hall and was purposely ignoring them.

“Why isn’t he out?”

“Is he closing himself in cultivation?”

“Even if he is cultivating, he should come and greet us right?”

The group muttered among themselves. With their violent knocking on the door, Su Mo should have sensed their presence.

“Junior Shangguan, are you around?” The leader, a tall black-shirted young man asked.

“I am not around!” Right at that moment, Su Mo’s light voice rang from the inside.

Su Mo remained expressionless in the cultivation room. He could tell that the men were looking for trouble.

Tea prepared for him?

He was a person who came from the Lower Plane and whose cultivation rank was lower than everyone else. Others would be disgruntled with him.

Unless these men all had good intentions and were friendly but had nothing better to do.

However, it was obvious that all their cultivation ranks were high. Otherwise, would they have pure intentions in befriending him?

…

Outside the palace doors, everyone who heard Su Mo’s words were stunned first before their faces turned dark.

Not around?

How can you speak if you are not around?

Are you joking with us?

Everyone’s faces turned dark, they were there by Senior Liang’s orders.

Originally, they wanted to see Su Mo and have a friendly battle with him.

After that, they would beat Su Mo and teach him a lesson in front of all the disciples.

This would shame Su Mo terribly.

By that point, Senior Liang would be able to use the incident as an excuse to pressure the Palace Master to retrieve Nine Heavens Hall.

However, a mere ant from the Lower Plane was actually mocking them.

“Damn it!”

“Seeking his own death!”

In an instant, everyone was angry, killing intent surged in the air and they wanted desperately to break through the array and bash their way into the palace.

However, they controlled themselves and did not allow their anger to turn into rashness.

“Junior Shangguan. Who are you kidding? Are you not going to invite us in?”

The leader black-shirted young man smirked and questioned.

Despite his anger, he maintained a smile on his face.

“Nope, wait until I am done with my cultivation before I meet you guys. Sorry!”

Su Mo replied from within the palace. He directed his voice into a sound wave that broadcasted itself at the palace doors.

He didn’t have time to waste with these men. At this point in time, his life was in greater danger.

“You…!”

The black-shirted young man’s face instantly turned pale with anger and he gripped his fists tightly.

“Damn it!”

“Who do you think you are? How dare you ignore us even when we are right outside your door?”

“Aren’t you too arrogant!”

The few other men shouted in anger. Shangguan Hao was too arrogant!

The group of True Deity Realm Disciples sought Shangguan Hao out. Not only did Shangguan Hao not greet them, he ignored them and prioritized cultivation over meeting them. He really didn’t understand manners.

“I knew that they didn’t have good intentions!” Inside the cultivation room, Su Mo scoffed upon hearing the reactions of the men.

However, he wasn’t worried. He had been cultivating in his palace and had not offended anyone. Would the group of people barge into his palace?

If that was the case, what were the rules of Deep Thousand Hall?

With that, Su Mo disregarded the men and continued to focus on his cultivation.

Outside Nine Heavens Hall, the faces of the disciples were as hard as steel and their chests rose in tandem with their rage-filled breaths.

“Senior Lian, what should we do?”

“Should we just barge our way in?”

“This lad is too arrogant1!”

Many people suggested to the black-shirted young man.

At that point, even if they broke the protective array by force and barged into Nine Heavens Hall to teach Shangguan Hao a lesson, there was nothing stopping them.

Although this was a breaking of rules and they would be punished, their punishment wouldn’t be too severe.

“Let’s head back and discuss!” The black-shirted young man’s face changed and he waved his hand dismissively.

With that, he turned and left. Head into the palace? They were not dumb!

“This…..!”

“Sigh!”

“Let’s go! Lets head back!”

The group shook their heads helplessly. Since even Senior Lian returned, there was nothing they could do there.

With nothing else to do, the group of disciples wore a disappointed face and left Nine Heavens Hall.

A distance away, many people had been observing the scene.

The news of the incident spread through numerous disciples’ ears in Deep Thousand Hall shortly.

Inside Nine Heavens Hall, the cultivation room.

Although Su Mo had been cultivating, he was observing what was happening outside his palace. Once he sensed that the group had left, he sighed with relief.

Then, he continued his cultivation.

…

The black-shirted Senior Lian led the group of disciples towards a yard that belonged to Senior Lian.

“How is it?”

The silver robed Senior Lian asked the group upon seeing them return.

“Senior Lian, Shangguan Hao ignored us although we were there. He shut himself in cultivation and refused to greet us!” The black-shirted Senior Liang reported with a dark face.

“What?” Senior Liang’s eyebrows furrowed together. Refused to greet them? How could the inferior Lower Plane man act so arrogantly?

“Senior Liang, this lad is outrageous. He actually mocked us by making us wait!”

“He does not treat us with respect at all!”

“We must teach him a lesson and teach him how to respect his seniors!”

Many disciples spoke with dark faces. An inferior from the Lower Plane shamed them, this was not acceptable!

Yet, Senior Liang remained silent as cold light flashed in his eyes.

“Senior Liang, if this man refuses to come out and greet us, what should we do?” Senior Lian frowned as he asked. it was not like they could ignore the rules of the sect.

“Wait for a while longer! See if he will come out!”

Senior Liang was silent for a while before he instructed. He refused to believe that Shangguan Hao would remain in Nine Heavens Hall forever.

After all, there were a lot of treasures in Deep Thousand hall. Strong martial arts techniques, secret techniques, sacred weapons. Would Shangguan Hao not want them all?

Furthermore, an elder of the sect would hold a lecture every half a year on sacred martial arts and the rules of nature.

This was an opportunity that many disciples would not miss out on. He didn’t believe that Shangguan Hao would skip the lecture.

This lecture would happen a month later.

By that point, they would take care of Shangguan Hao once he came out of Nine Heavens Hall.

“Mm!” Senior Lian nodded his head while the other man agreed to Senior Liang.

In the following days, Senior Liang and the group of disciples waited patiently for Shangguan Hao to come out.

In addition, they arranged for men to spy at Nine heavens Hall.

However, Senior Liang would be disappointed. A month passed by quickly but nothing happened in Nine Heavens Hall.

This day, the group of disciples once again gathered in Senior Liang’s yard.

“Damn it!”

The silver-robed Senior Liang sat at the stone table as his face turned red from anger. He was losing his patience.

“Is this lad dumb? He didn’t even attend the elder’s lecture!” The black-shirted Senior Liang scoffed. Shangguan Hao had closed himself in cultivation the moment he arrived in Deep Thousand Hall. He didn’t leave his palace and rejected all visitors. Was he trying to isolate himself from the world?

“I already heard that this lad didn’t even seek any martial arts techniques or sacred weapons!”

“Something is definitely wrong with his man. He doesn’t want anything and he didn’t attend the elder’s lecture!”

“There is something amiss, this man is too weird!”

The group of disciples were speechless. Shangguan Hao must be insane.
