Chapter 209 The ultimate victor will be me, Zhi Meng.
"Yan Hongluo, please save me this time, for the sake of the time I saved Yaoyao!"
To save his life, Lin Xuan was willing to risk everything, completely forgetting that he had been planning to trick Yan Hongluo.
Lin Xuan knew very well that the only person who could save him now was Yan Hongluo.
It would be even better if Yan Hongluo fell out with Gu Qing because of saving him.
A plan flashed through Lin Xuan's mind.
Yan Hongluo withdrew her gaze from Gu Qing and looked at Lin Xuan, her delicate brows slightly furrowed.
But soon, it relaxed again.
At first, when she saw that Lin Xuan had the power of the Great Dao within him, she thought that Lin Xuan was a disciple of some Immortal Emperor, so she dared not make any rash moves.
However, Lin Xuan's bones were dismembered and his origin was extracted, yet the so-called Immortal Emperor did not appear. Lin Xuan most likely obtained the Immortal Emperor's inheritance by accident.
There is no direct connection between him and the Immortal Emperor.
Thinking it over, Yan Honglu lost interest and withdrew from control of her body.
“If you dare to do something stupid, I don’t mind castrating Lin Xuandao, imprisoning him in the Demon Prison, and cutting off all nine of your fox tails to use as a pillow.”
She couldn't be bothered with Lin Xuan's schemes; he was nothing more than a dying ant.
Gu Qing held Lin Xuan in his grasp without killing him, probably to test Yao Yao's attitude.
"I will not."
Yao Yao shuddered, but her tone remained firm.
She stepped up to Gu Qing, her small face indifferent as she looked down at Lin Xuan, her tone cold and detached.
"What life-saving grace?"
Lin Xuan was overjoyed; he was afraid that Yan Hongluo wouldn't even glance at him.
If Yan Hongluo is willing to come see him, it means that Yan Hongluo still cares about their friendship to some extent.
"It was in Hong..."
"Shut up."
Do you think I'm dead?
"If we're talking about saving your life, it was me who saved you."
Yao Yao scoffed coldly, her expression domineering and disdainful, every gesture exuding the air of an empress.
Lin Xuan opened his mouth, instinctively wanting to refute.
You know, he almost lost his life to save Yao Yao back then, how can that not count as a life-saving grace?
But considering that Yan Hongluo was an immoral witch, Lin Xuan wisely refrained from saying anything more.
After thinking for a moment, as if making a decision, he gritted his teeth and said, "If you save me this time, I'm willing to owe you a favor, how about it?"
"???"
Yao Yao looked at him.
With that reluctant look on his face, does Lin Xuan think his favor is more important than anything else?
"There's no need for that. Your favor is too precious for me to accept. Farewell."
Before Yao Yao could finish speaking, she had already disappeared from the spot.
"..."
Please come back soon.
Lin Xuan was frantic with worry.
Isn't negotiating terms just a matter of wrangling and passing the buck?
Lin Xuan had already planned it out: first, he would offer Yan Hongluo some empty promises, then use Yan Hongluo to deal with Gu Qing.
Unexpectedly, Yan Hongluo did not play by the rules and left without warning.
A wave of panic surged through Lin Xuan's heart, and he roared inwardly, "Damn system, damn system, get the hell out here! I'm going to die! If I die, you won't get away with it, damn system..."
Gu Qing smiled. It seemed that Yao Yao had truly broken things off with Lin Xuan.
Carrying Lin Xuan, who was like a dead dog, they arrived before the powerful figures of the Primordial Demon Sect.
"We pay our respects to Master Gu."
"I have met Master Gu."
The Saint Realm and Divine Fire Realm are usually detached from the world, appearing and disappearing like a dragon.
Upon seeing Gu Qing arrive, their expressions immediately became extremely respectful.
Because they knew very well that, setting aside the Star Temple, Gu Qing alone could wipe out the entire Primal Demon Sect.
Even they couldn't withstand a single strike of that terrifying Chaos Return to Nothingness Sword Technique.
"Ok!"
Gu Qing gave a faint "hmm": "You all know what should be said and what shouldn't be said, right?"
"know."
“I, Li Zichen, swear to Heaven that if this matter is made public, I will perish under the tribulation of ascension and never be reborn.”
"I……"
The powerful figures were filled with resentment, but they showed no sign of it on their faces. Instead, they solemnly swore an oath.
Gu Qing nodded in satisfaction. After all, it was Yan Hongluo's sect, and he didn't want to make things too difficult for her.
After everyone finished making their oaths to Heaven, Gu Qing smiled and said, "I will arrange for our sect to cooperate with your sect. Also, you need to do me another favor: have Sect Master Yan kill Lin Xuan's disciple. Understand?"
"understood!"
"it is good!"
Gu Qing turned and left, crossing the Milky Way to arrive at Zhi Meng's side.
"Master, your disciple has successfully fulfilled his mission."
"You've done very well; your skill has surpassed that of your master."
Zhi Meng nodded with a complicated expression.
Of course, she was happier than anyone else to see Gu Qing possess such cultivation.
But her disciple's cultivation level surpassed hers, which made her feel terrible no matter how she thought about it.
"It seems I haven't tried hard enough..." Zhi Meng couldn't help but start to reflect on herself.
"Master, what are you thinking about so intently?"
"nothing."
"Then let's begin the soul search."
Gu Qing's eyes flickered, wondering what would happen to Zhi Meng once she learned what a villain and a protagonist were.
"it is good."
"..."
Lin Xuan huddled up in a ball the whole time, trembling.
When Lin Xuan heard that the two adulterers wanted to search his soul together, he was so frightened that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
For him, if there was anything more terrifying than death, it would undoubtedly be being subjected to soul-searching.
Lin Xuan cursed, "Zhuang Zhimeng, the thing I regret most in my life is saving a heartless woman like you! If you have the guts, kill her!"
Zhi Meng remained expressionless as she used the most painful method to search Lin Xuan's soul.
But the more she searched, the more alarmed she became, feeling as if her worldview had been turned upside down.
Lin Xuan is actually a transmigrator from outer space, claiming to be a transmigrator, and those strange clothes... Bah, shameless woman.
What a strange civilization...
What is a system? Is it a magic weapon?
Recruiting disciples actually grants a reward—a direct infusion of cultivation power…
hiss……
Zhi Meng's worldview, which she had held firmly for thousands of years, shattered at this moment.
He stared blankly at Gu Qing.
She strongly suspected that Gu Qing had actually known about Lin Xuan's peculiarities all along.
In fact, given how quickly Gu Qing's cultivation has improved, he might have even killed a transmigrator like Lin Xuan.
This explains why Gu Qing has so many ingenious ideas and why he possesses so many heaven-defying techniques and secret arts.
Of course, these are not important.
Gu Qing actually shared such an incredible stroke of luck with her...
Zhi Meng's cold heart suddenly felt warm, as if an indescribable emotion was brewing within her.
"call!"
Zhi Meng took a deep breath, suppressing the strange emotions in her heart, and suddenly smiled.
"When are you planning to go back? Are you taking those two little devils with you?"
Although she had been in the starry sky, she was completely unaware of what had happened to Gu Qing these past few days.
However, after searching Lin Xuan's soul, it was learned that Gu Qing had been enjoying the bliss of having two wives these past few days.
Moreover, since Gu Qing didn't kill Yan Hongluo, and Yan Hongluo didn't help Lin Xuan, it's likely that both master and disciple have fallen into the trap.
"It will probably take a while, why don't you go back first, Master?"
"Alright, but you must not become obsessed with women. We cultivators should aspire to longevity and freedom."
"Also, one should always be wary of others..."
Zhi Meng carefully and meticulously explained things to Gu Qing for a while before gracefully leaving.
Back at the Star Temple, Zhi Meng glanced at Starlight Peak and thought to herself, "I've been fighting with you my whole life and we've never been able to settle things, but I never expected Gu Qing to come out on top. He's my disciple, so I've won this round."
"Furthermore, I have received Lin Xuan's extraordinary fortune, and my cultivation is about to advance by leaps and bounds. What will you use to fight me in the future?"
"The two peerless beauties, the ultimate victor will be me, Zhi Meng."
