Super Invincible Immortal Doctor

Tu Qianjue’s words were very eloquent, but everyone present had their wits about them and Zhuo Qian was well aware that, if not for the deterrence of a ninth grade Martial King ancestor, Tu Qianjue would have directly snatched the treasure, with no regard for the code of honor among martial artists.

Whether for cultivators or martial artists, their actions depend on their preferences. The so-called code of honor among martial artists does not have much binding power. What differs is that some people have bottom lines, while others do not.

Take Su Chengyu as an example, even if the Zhuo Family did not plot against him or covet his treasures, knowing that the Zhuo Family possessed fragments of the Hongmeng Heavenly Book, he would also attempt to steal them, then compensate the Zhuo Family with some elixirs and martial arts secret manuals.

If he were always to be wary and completely restrained by the code of martial ethics, and hence refrains from competition and thieving, there would be no need for him to cultivate.

Cultivation is a defiance against the heavens and does not tolerate any hesitation or indecisiveness. There must be competition and thieving to go against the current. Every person who is able to reach the realm of the powerful in cultivation is not an easy target, and no one is a great benefactor.

The difference with Su Chengyu is that he has his own bottom line. Even when he seizes something, he will leave some benefits and never wantonly slaughter the innocent.

Of course, if the Zhuo Family had evil intentions and plotted against him, Su Chengyu would be even less courteous.

However, if it was someone like Tu Qianjue, and if the Zhuo Family did not have a powerful figure presiding over it, he would not only rob them but also kill them, and he would not leave any benefits for the Zhuo Family.

"Senior Tu is here as a guest to attend the appraisal meeting. The Zhuo Family welcomes you warmly. Please have a seat, Senior Tu." Zhuo Qian gestured with his hand.
