Chapter 123 Qingzhou Mu is also a fanboy, Yin Yang Sect is restless, and the creditor comes to the door ( words!))
Xu Gu's face turned dark and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly.
Do you want to hear what you are talking about?
A female clan leader, a female elder, and a female supreme elder? Not to mention whether this marriage can be successful, but can the marriage partner you put forward for me to choose at least be a little more serious?
It makes me feel like a gigolo!
Am I that kind of person?
The key point is that given the state of decline of your Yin Yang Sect, this is not a free meal!
My goodness, if I really marry the leader or elders of the Yin Yang Sect, or even the supreme elder, I will not only be ruined, but I will not even be able to eat free food. I may even have to give away a few high-interest loan IOUs as a dowry.
What do I want? Because they are old? Because they owe a lot of money?
"Don't worry. My Yin Yang Sect has a total of seven fairies. They were all stunningly beautiful when they were young. Now, not only have they not lost any of their beauty, but they have also become more charming. I guarantee that Brother Xu will be satisfied.
"When the time comes, you will be eager to spend the wedding night as soon as you see it." Uncle Jinghao smiled and patted his chest to guarantee, very proudly.
If we say that Jing Hao was born not long ago and has not experienced much, and does not have any scheming or intentions, he is just relatively simple and wants to learn Xu Gu's magic of carving a boat to find a sword, and have Xu Gu teach him how to make money and escape his poverty.
Then, Uncle Jinghao is definitely a veteran.
I wouldn’t say he’s cunning, but he’s definitely very cunning.
After all, the old man is so poor, and he has been cheating and deceiving people in the secular world. To put it nicely, he lives a life of enjoying life while he can, but to put it bluntly, he is just living a life of eating and waiting for death. However, he was still able to cultivate himself and become a great god. How could he not be a little cunning?
He had heard a long time ago that a peerless hero had emerged among the young geniuses recently.
His name is Xu Gu, a disciple of a hidden sect, who voluntarily came out to kill demons and save the world. He first said a few words and ruined the invincible dream of a powerful person who wanted to survive. He went undercover in the demon cave and became the future successor of the demon cave.
He easily destroyed the conspiracy of the Ji Le Demon Cult and even killed a legendary demon child from heaven.
Also in the Huailiu ghost world, an ultimate melee broke out, resulting in the deaths and injuries of millions of ghost cultivators.
And investigate the origins and hiding places of that mysterious ancient force that has caused headaches for the entire Qingzhou County.
These deeds alone are enough to go down in history, and he accomplished all of them in a very short period of time, only about half a year at most.
Not to mention a young man, even if it is an old monster in a combined form, it is unknown whether he can do such a thing!
The only black spot might be his poor aptitude, as he only has three spiritual roots. However, he possesses amazing wisdom. Even if his achievements in cultivation are limited in the future, he is still a rare commander-type talent.
No matter how you look at it, Xu Gu is very worth recruiting.
The most important thing is that Xu Gu started from scratch and created the 'Sleep Paralysis Clinic', this terrifying money-making machine, in just a few months!
This is too tempting for the Yin Yang Sect.
He is the one who can directly help the Yin Yang Sect change its fate! He is simply the savior of the Yin Yang Sect!
However, Uncle Jinghao knew very well what level the Yin Yang Sect was. Although it was a super sect, only one level lower than the five major immortal sects, it was too poor.
There is no competitiveness at all when it comes to recruiting disciples or sons-in-law.
Under normal circumstances, there is no chance to recruit Xu Gu.
Now, knowing that the young man in front of him was the famous and mysterious young man Xu Gu, he naturally couldn't let him go no matter what! Even if it meant sacrificing his old face, even though he had no face to begin with.
As for the recommended marriage partner, he also considered it.
Of course there are female disciples in the Yin Yang Sect, but can they capture Xu Gu's heart? Obviously not!
After all, with Xu Gu's amazing wisdom, I believe it won't be long before the female disciple representing the Yin Yang Sect and Xu Gu's marriage will turn her elbow out.
Therefore, he nominated the sect leader, the true elders, the supreme elders and the like.
After we get married, even if I can't control Xu Gu, at least I won't be controlled by Xu Gu, right?
He believed that everyone in Yin Yang Sect would be very supportive of his idea!
"I missed this point." After Xu Gu thought about it carefully, he understood the general idea of Uncle Jinghao. He could understand it to some extent, and suddenly felt a headache.
I shouldn't have used the phrase "carving a boat to find a sword" to seduce Jinghao just now.
Isn't this just like showing off your handsome face and strong body in front of Widow Town? It would be strange if you didn't get entangled.
then,
Xu Gu agreed verbally and was about to leave when Master Jinghao grabbed his hand again and said with an embarrassed smile:
"Since this matter has been settled, let's sign the contract before leaving. I can go back and convince the sect master or other elders, otherwise they will think I am playing a trick on them."
Uncle Jinghao is such an experienced man, how could he not know that what Xu Gu just said was just a delaying tactic? Once he was let go, the matter might just end up unresolved.
How could he allow this?
"..." Xu Gu's eyes twitched.
It must be said that the righteous path is indeed much more difficult to deal with than the evil path. No wonder the righteous path prospers while the evil path declines.
In order to extricate himself as soon as possible, he had no choice but to sign the contract under the constant nagging of Uncle Jinghao.
It is not a marriage contract, it is just a contract to discuss the marriage contract in Yin Yang Sect.
Anyway, he will definitely have to visit the Yin Yang Sect in the future.
As for whether the marriage can be successful, it depends on the means of both parties.
"Well, Brother Xu, you have things to do first, I will go back to the sect to report." Uncle Jinghao held the contract, the corners of his mouth curled up wildly, his eyes were shining, and he was extremely excited.
He grabbed Jing Hao and flew back to the sect in a hurry.
I plan to inform everyone in the sect of this good news.
He was not in the mood to redeem even the magic weapons he had mortgaged here.
"What a trouble." Xu Gu felt a headache as he watched Uncle Jinghao leave.
For no reason, I was arranged to go on a blind date!
What a thing!
Moreover, who knows what tricks the Yin Yang Sect will use at that time, which will be very difficult to deal with. If you are not careful and fall into their trap, it will be really troublesome.
Under normal circumstances, if he saw someone he liked, marrying her as a concubine was nothing. As a demon cultivator, he didn't care about this. However, the Yin-Yang Sect was cursed by the poor ghost. If he was infected, wouldn't his life be ruined?
Then, there was a moment of silence, and he looked at Mi Suhui and Li Shaobai fiercely.
"It's not that we don't want to help you. Firstly, we can't defeat them, and secondly, the Yin Yang Sect is indeed pitiful." Mi Suhui spread his hands and said innocently.
Li Shaobai said: "When the time comes, if you help them resolve the 'poor ghost' curse, they shouldn't pester you for marriage."
"..."Xu Gu was completely silent.
Do you really think of me as a wishing tree?
Besides, I am a magic cultivator! If I don't strengthen the magic path, I will solve your problems with the righteous path every day, right?
However, he still had a dark face and said to Li Shaobai and Mi Suhui:
"How do the righteous and the imperial court keep secrets? Five out of ten people who see us know that we are undercover. The whole world knows that we are undercover, right?"
At this point, Xu Gu added: "Except for the demon cultivators in the Daliang Demon Cave."
"Well, it's not like the whole world knows about it." Mi Suhui scratched his head, not thinking there was anything wrong.
"Only the top leaders of immortal sects or super sects, as well as the top leaders of the imperial court, know about this. The number of people who know about this is already very small. Jia Daoyi, Jing Hao, Jing Hao's uncle, and Lu Shouyuan, whom we met, all belong to this group.
"Don't worry, they won't leak this information, let alone leak it to the demonic forces."
"Am I worried that the news will leak out?" Xu Gu glared and said viciously.
Even if the Emperor of Da Shang stood in front of the demons in the Daliang Demon Cave and said in person that the six of them were undercover agents of the righteous path, the demons would not be shaken at all.
“What I’m worried about is that if too many people in the righteous sects and the imperial court know about this, it will affect my mission.
"Every now and then a little fanboy would come and cling to my legs and wouldn't let me leave. Or a little fangirl would come and yell that she would marry no one else but me. Or all the members of the sect would go out of their way to make me change jobs, etc." Xu Gu held his forehead with his hand and sighed.
Sure enough, having too much personal charm is also a bad thing.
Who would have thought that he, a demon cultivator, would become a rare talent that the righteous would fight for. To some extent, it was a disgrace to the demon cultivators.
Unfortunately, he was determined to ascend to heaven and become invincible forever. If not for this, he might have really obeyed.
"No." Mi Suhui and Li Shaobai said in unison: "The high-ranking officials of the righteous sects and the imperial court are all very restrained and will not lose their composure like this. The Yin Yang Sect is an exception. They are mainly crazy because of poverty.
"Look at Lu, the head of the Ministry of Revenue. He is very calm."
"Is that so?" Xu Gu finally recovered. He was really scared by Master Jing Hao and his nephew.
Just imagine that a powerful god suddenly kneels in front of you, hugs your thighs enthusiastically and says that he wants to make you his godfather.
Then, another super sect's true disciple, the future successor, holds your other thigh and says that he wants his master to worship you as his master.
It would be strange if he wasn't scared.
Xu Gu and the other two did not go back to the Demon Cave directly. Instead, they planned to stay in Xiaoliu Town for a few days to finalize the opening of a chain of "Sleep Paralysis Clinics" and formulate some plans and regulations.
Then select a few suitable ones from Li Shaobai's lovers to be shopkeepers.
the other side,
Lu Shouyuan, the chief official, hurried to the provincial capital to meet the governor of Qingzhou.
"What's going on? Why are you in such a hurry?" The governor calmly put down the book in his hand and said to Lu Shouyuan who came in a hurry.
"It was I who lost my composure." Lu Shouyuan was stunned for a moment, then he burst into laughter, walked to the Qingzhou governor, put down the projection stone in his hand, and said:
"Take a look. This is Xu Zhijian's actions in the Huailiu ghost world."
When they arrived, Xu Gu and the other two had already entered the Huailiu ghost world. Although they did not try to stop them, they were always keeping an eye on everything inside with magic weapons, fearing that something might happen to them. At the same time, they were also using the photo stone to record everything the three did.
"So fast?" Qingzhou Mu asked in surprise.
Xu Gu's every move is closely watched. Naturally, there are people waiting to know what he has done in the Huailiu ghost world.
However, under normal circumstances, the results are announced first.
Due to the special status of Xu Gu and the other two, apart from local officials like them, the results would only be announced to the highest level of power in Dashang, that is, officials of the imperial court and the top leaders of the righteous forces above the super-class.
As for the detailed process, there will be a special department to deconstruct, analyze, organize and summarize. It often takes a long time before reporting.
However, now that Master Lu actually sent the original projection directly to him, it was inevitable that he would be surprised.
Manager Lu said with some difficulty: "The result of Xu Zhijian's trip is of course good. It has resolved the problem of the Huailiu ghost world from the root. But the process may be a little controversial."
"Oh? Dispute? Let me see." Qingzhou Mu raised his eyebrows and hesitated. Then, he used his magic power to activate the projection stone to play at super speed, while spreading his spiritual consciousness to capture effective information.
At first, he looked casual and relaxed, and didn't take it too seriously.
He already knew the result. As for the process, what controversy could it cause? It was nothing more than that the three of them might have used treasures given by the immortal sect or family behind them during the process. In other words, they used external objects.
Although the use of external objects is indeed despised by most super sects and court officials, it also depends on what the three of them did.
In the Huailiu Ghost Realm, there were golden elixirs everywhere, many Nascent Souls, and even a powerful God-transforming master. What was wrong with them using some external objects?
However, the relaxed look on Qingzhou Mu's face gradually disappeared, and he became more and more serious, with a frown on his face. He even sat up straight, his face full of astonishment, and he was very restless.
Even cold sweat broke out.
"Oh my god, they swept through the ghost world, didn't they use external objects?"
"But relying on Xu Zhijian's amazing wisdom?"
"Then, they swept through the ghost city together, set off a large-scale riot, instigated the heroes to fight for supremacy, and started a war for hegemony. They used the allies to chant scriptures, killed millions of evil ghosts, robbed the ghost king's palace, supported the ghost king's heirs, and weakened the ghost king's power. They sacrificed most of the demon cultivators, cultivated their own half-step god transformation, provoked the ghost king to join the plan again, and completely killed the ghost king...
"This……"
Qingzhou Mu's legs and feet were trembling and his expression changed again and again.
From a certain perspective, this does prove that Xu Guxu is undoubtedly a man of amazing wisdom when holding a sword!
However, this method is a bit too cruel and... vicious.
It's simply the wrath of heaven and the resentment of the devil, more evil than the devil itself.
"They are the righteous ones, right?" Qingzhou Mu asked Lu Shouyuan.
Lu Shouyuan: “…”
"What am I talking about. Of course they are righteous. Judging from their backgrounds, if they are not righteous, then there will be no righteousness in the world." The Qingzhou Mu swallowed his saliva, his expression solemn, and muttered.
As Lu Shouyuan said, the content of this photo can easily cause controversy.
To be honest, he felt his scalp tingling when he saw it.
I couldn't find any adjective to describe it at the moment. If I really had to describe it, it would only be "extremely evil".
Not only Xu Gu, but Li Shaobai and Mi Suhui also used the same method.
"Then?" Lu Shouyuan hesitated.
"Let me make a report and ask His Majesty first." The governor of Qingzhou was silent for a moment and did not make a direct decision.
After all, Xu, Gu and the other two have special identities, especially Li Shaobai and Mi Suhui, who are the light of righteousness and the pillars of the future.
Although, he felt that it was appropriate to use cruel means to deal with evil spirits or other hostile foreign races.
But if Mi Suhui and Li Shaobai's family members and the sect knew about this, they would probably be furious and might cause some trouble.
Some conservatives in the court might also be furious and accuse this undercover plan of turning the light of righteousness into the successor of evil.
So, after they submitted their report, they waited anxiously all night.
the next day,
Flying swords were heard from the court, and both of them were extremely nervous.
However, when they opened the letter sent by the flying sword and read the contents, they were completely dumbfounded.
All the bad situations they had imagined might happen did not happen at all.
"What? The emperor actually spoke out, urging Xu Gu and the other six righteous sages to keep up the good work? Expecting them to make more great achievements?"
"In the court, half of the officials and the leaders of the sects are clapping and cheering?"
"And the other half think that what Xu and Gu did is not radical enough. Can we be more extreme in dealing with the enemy tribe?"
After reading the letter from the court, the Governor of Qingzhou and the Director of Road were stunned on the spot. Their minds went blank and they couldn't believe it. They opened their mouths but were too stunned to make any sound.
Oh no, I’ve become a conservative.
In addition, there was criticism of them from the court.
Things like criticizing two people for being too conservative and stubborn even require a petition.
And criticized them both for not having a deep understanding of the Outline of the Shang Dynasty Law.
It is a serious dereliction of duty that they fail to fully understand the basic principles of the Dashang legal system, which emphasizes procedural justice internally and beneficial results externally.
"This……"
Faced with this result, the two were stunned for a long time, and finally reacted. They looked at each other and laughed out loud:
"It seems that we are indeed conservative."
Qingzhou Mu said: "Since the court has already determined the nature of the case, don't worry about it, speed up the analysis and compile it into a book.
"Then, rush forward and deliver it to the imperial court. Send a copy to each immortal sect, super sect, or family leader. Remember to make a few copies of the projection stone and send them along with it.
"They are all urging us to watch it."
"I'll do it right away." Lu Shouyuan nodded and said with a smile.
"By the way, Xu Gu and the others are still in our Qingzhou County, right?" Qingzhou Mu asked.
“Yes, it’s still in Xiaoliu Town, Wansen County.” Lu Shouyuan said.
Qingzhou Mu smiled and said, "Prepare the flying boat and go to Xiaoliu Town."
……
"All the preliminary matters for opening the chain have been prepared."
“According to your plan, all 18 chain stores in Wansen County have opened and are operating normally.
"After that, we will open a chain store in the most prosperous areas of each county in Qingzhou County. Then, other counties.
“Once every city in Qingzhou has a sleep paralysis clinic of ours, it will spread to other states.
"Once every city in every state has a sleep paralysis clinic, we will start increasing the number of stores in prosperous cities. Once we have reached saturation, we will go out to sea and enter other continents."
Mi Suhui had a pile of account books and an abacus in front of him. He said excitedly while calculating:
"As for the cost..."
"Don't say that. It makes me feel overwhelmed." Xu Gu waved his hand to stop Mi Suhui from talking endlessly: "I am only responsible for the strategy. You can figure out the specific implementation of the strategy yourself.
"With the protection of the righteous and evil ways, these are not a problem. If there are major problems that cannot be solved, please consult me."
Mi Suhui nodded and said nothing more.
Li Shaobai said: "My girlfriends all performed well and passed the shopkeeper assessment.
"I also warned them not to act recklessly. If they abuse their power or bend the law for personal gain, I will show no mercy."
Xu Gu nodded with satisfaction.
If any other partner replaced the shop manager with his wife, he would definitely have a headache because it would be difficult to manage the shop.
But Li Shaobai is different.
He really would kill his companions to prove his truth.
"In that case, we should go back to the devil's cave..." Xu Guzheng was speaking when suddenly a noise came from outside.
"The governor is here!"
"They said they were here to commend our Sleep Paralysis Clinic for being one of the top ten new and outstanding chambers of commerce in Qingzhou this year."
"I came specially to see the three adults!"
The mayor danced excitedly and ran over, saying to Xu, Gu and the other two happily.
For him, this was like a huge honor coming out of his ancestral grave.
One day, he, a mayor of a small town, would be able to meet the extremely honorable governor!
"Provincial governor?" Xu Gu raised his eyebrows, looked at Mi Suhui and Li Shaobai who also looked puzzled, and asked hesitantly: "What is he doing here?"
"I don't know." Mi Suhui and Li Shaobai shrugged and spread their hands.
"Is he here to cause trouble?" Xu Gu's heart skipped a beat. He knew very well that the three of them had been somewhat unrestrained in the Huailiu Ghost Realm. Although he still restrained himself, if the news reached such a high-ranking official, it would indeed be easy to be questioned.
"Don't worry, they won't." Li Shaobai said calmly.
"Yes, they dare!" Mi Suhui also raised his head and chest, and said proudly: "I am the future Central Buddha. Isn't it natural for me to save some ghosts?"
"Let's go and take a look." Xu Gu nodded.
He was not too nervous. Anyway, he had Li Shaobai and Mi Suhui with him. Even if he was considered to be extreme, what would it matter? He just felt it was troublesome.
In the meeting building of Xiaoliu Town.
Xu, Gu and the other two had just walked into the building.
A figure came out.
The mayor of Xiaoliu Town was flattered, because the person who came out to greet him was none other than the governor of Qingzhou.
"Xu Zhijian?"
The Qingzhou Mu was a middle-aged man with an extraordinary bearing and was very elegant. He was not as majestic as one might imagine.
After seeing Xu and Gu, he didn't even look at Mi Suhui and Li Shaobai, and all his attention was on Xu Gu.
He waved his hand casually to let everyone push down, and then said to Xu Gu very kindly:
"Xu Zhijian, please come in."
"?" Xu Gu and the other two were caught off guard by Qingzhou Mu's move, and none of them knew what he was going to do. However, they soon found out what Qingzhou Mu was going to do.
It left them speechless.
The governor of Qingzhou led three people into the meeting building. He first enthusiastically poured tea for Xu Gu himself, and then poured two cups for Mi Suhui and Li Shaobai. Then he started chatting about family matters.
There is no real business at all.
It was not until later that Xu Gu decided to get straight to the point and asked if there was anything wrong.
Qingzhou Mucai shyly took out an exquisite Shu brocade handkerchief from his bosom and said:
"My little daughter has always admired Xu Zhijian's demeanor. I wonder if you can sign your name on my little daughter's handkerchief."
“???” Xu Gu widened his eyes in disbelief.
That's it?
You are the governor of a state, in charge of an immeasurable territory. The power of dozens of rulers on the Earth may not be as great as yours.
As a result, you came here in a hurry to summon us. It's not for any important matter, just to ask for my autograph for your daughter?
“???” Not only Xu Gu, but Mi Suhui and Li Shaobai were also stunned and couldn’t believe it.
Li Shaobai is relatively reserved.
Mi Suhui stood up and protested, "Didn't you ask for my autograph?"
“…” Xu Gu’s mouth twitched.
It seemed as if the Qingzhou Mu already knew Mi Suhui's character. He simply ignored him and pretended not to hear him.
Mi Suhui repeated it several times but got no response. Finally, he crossed his arms and sat back angrily.
Xu Gu hesitated for a moment, picked up the brush he had prepared long ago, and carefully wrote his name on the brocade handkerchief.
"It's a little ugly, but it's authentic." After Xu Gu finished writing, he looked at the words and laughed at himself.
Of course, his handwriting was not ugly. Because he knew that the handwriting of the protagonist of a time-travel novel could easily become a point of criticism, so he had been practicing regularly these days. Now that it has been three years, he has made some progress.
"It's not ugly, it's not ugly, it's full of vigor and vitality." The Qingzhou Mu looked at it carefully and exclaimed.
Xu Gu didn't care, he knew how the handwriting was.
Just when he thought that the matter was about to end, Qingzhou Mu took out a painting from his bosom again and said a little embarrassedly:
"This time, sign one for me."
"..." Xu Gu was stunned for a moment, then he turned his head to look at Mi Suhui and Li Shaobai. Didn't you two say that, apart from the Yin-Yang Sect, other big shots are very introverted and reserved?
Look at it for yourself, is this restrained? Is this reserved?
Mi Suhui and Li Shaobai did not respond to Xu Gu's gaze at all, but instead sulked.
I'm still wondering why Qingzhou Mu doesn't ask for my autograph.
By the way, will we die if we do things in a worldly way?
Xu Gu signed with a smile.
Qingzhou Mu hesitated for a moment and said, "And my wife, please ask me for a favor as well..."
“?” Xu Gu raised his eyebrows. It’s never going to end, right?
"Hahaha, just kidding."
Qingzhou Mu laughed and said, "That's all. Brother Xu, don't give out your autograph so easily in the future. Otherwise, if you give too much, it will depreciate."
After saying this, he and Xu Gu held the calligraphy and paintings together, and asked Xu Gu to hold his daughter's Shu brocade, strike a handsome pose, and have someone take a photo with a photo stone as a souvenir.
"I have important matters to attend to, so I'll excuse myself first. Brother Xu, if you come to Qingzhou again in the future and encounter any trouble, just send a message to me via flying sword." The Mu of Qingzhou said to Xu Gu in a very kind and generous manner.
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Watching Qingzhou Mu leave, Xu Gu stood there, stunned for a long time.
In the end, he still couldn't figure out why the governor of a state would behave like a fan in front of him.
"Why aren't there any for the two of us? This old man really doesn't understand the ways of the world."
Mi Suhui still couldn't accept it and said angrily.
"That's right." Li Shaobai also protested.
Xu Gu's mouth twitched.
Don’t you really know that all the disciples of the righteous path and all the officials in the court call you the Five Demons of the Righteous Path?
With your reputation, you still want an autograph?
You guys are ruining my reputation.
Of course, Mi Suhui and Li Shaobai did not take this matter to heart.
They have some understanding of the world's misunderstanding of them.
In addition, the person being signed was not someone else but their respected Senior Brother Xu, so there was nothing unbalanced about it.
After the three of them had dealt with everything, they set off directly and took the returning flying boat back to the Daliang Demon Cave.
The news that the Jile Demon Cult was going to attack the Daliang Demon Cave had already been passed on. However, the demon leaders in the Daliang Demon Cave were unable to come up with a countermeasure and were all waiting for Xu Gu to return and make a decision.
If you don’t know, you might think Xu Gu is the master of the demon cave.
And on the other side,
On an isolated mountain east of Wansen County.
"Strange, why hasn't anyone contacted me yet?"
"It's been two months!"
"The devil didn't contact me, so why didn't the government contact me?"
A figure was lurking in the lonely mountain, brows furrowed, scratching his head in confusion.
This person was none other than the Taiyi Taoist sect's candidate for true successor - Jia Daoyi.
He originally wanted to save people for fun, but ended up aiding and abetting the evil. He tried to organize the government to arrest the people of the evil sect, and was sent to the evil sect as an undercover agent by the government. After entering the evil sect, he was responsible for protecting Grandma Heimu, also known as Nie Xiaoqian.
"You didn't forget about me, did you?"
"It shouldn't be. Without me, how can the Demonic Path implement its plan? Without me, how can the government fight against the Demonic Path?"
"Besides, even if they forget me, both the good and evil should not forget me at the same time."
"Yes, this time the evil forces are hatching a shocking conspiracy with a very deep plan. In order not to be discovered, we must not be impatient and must take it slow." Thinking this way, Jia Daoyi became full of energy again and continued to lurk in this hidden mountain.
……
On the flying boat.
"I laughed. Kong Haoran and the others actually asked us what kind of cultivation we have achieved."
Mi Suhui took the flying sword message sent by the flying boat attendant, took just a glance at the content, and laughed.
"Are they trying to compete with us in realm level?" Li Shaobai also laughed out loud and said, "What a wild idea."
"How ridiculous! Comparing with us? Just suppressing them! They don't know how much we have gained from this trip under the guidance of Senior Brother Xu Gu.
"First write a fake realm to trick them, and then give them a surprise later." Mi Suhui said with a wicked smile: "Let them know that there is a gap between the spiritual roots of heaven and the spiritual roots of heaven!"
Xu Gu, who was standing aside, frowned slightly after hearing this.
It might be able to suppress the harvest, but in terms of realm, this one may not be comparable.
Because, I have the characteristics of a mediocre person.
……
time flies,
Xu, Gu and the other two successfully arrived at the Daliang Demon Cave.
Unlike the last time Xu Gu returned from a mission, this time the door was filled with demon cultivators. They were all excited, happy, and joyful, and they happily welcomed the return of Xu Gu and the other two.
The only thing that was the same as last time was probably Zhao Jingang, Kong Haoran, and Huan Caiyi, who were standing in the middle, posing in a posture that made them look very strong and handsome, and exuding an aura.
“Oh, three people who are in the middle stage of the second level of foundation building.” Mi Suhui walked forward, his mouth curled up, and looked at the three people in Huan Caiyi, and said with a smile: “When did it become so serious?”
"Huh?" Kong Haoran and the other two were stunned. They didn't expect Mi Suhui to react like this when he saw them.
"Aren't you in the late stage of the first foundation building stage as written in the letter?" Huan Caiyi hesitated.
"Isn't this nonsense? How can I slap you in the face if I don't say so?" Mi Suhui laughed loudly, extremely proud. His aura burst out, and he was actually at the fourth level of foundation building. He turned around in front of the three people in Huancaiyi to show off.
Mi Suhui said proudly: "I am at the fourth level of foundation building! How is it? Master Buddha, am I awesome?"
But who would have thought that there was no sound of surprise or astonishment.
The three people in Huan Caiyi didn't seem surprised at all. They also laughed out loud and said:
"So you're only at the fourth level of foundation building. Looking at your posture, we thought you were at the golden elixir level."
As they spoke, the aura of the three people suddenly changed, from the second level of foundation building to the fourth level of foundation building.
"You are also at the fourth level of foundation building?" Mi Suhui was astonished and said in disbelief, "The realm written in the letter is false?"
The three people in Huan Caiyi said in unison: "Isn't this nonsense? If I don't say this, how can I slap you in the face?"
Mi Suhui: “…”
"Moreover, we are not at the fourth level of foundation building, but at the peak of the fourth level of foundation building. We can be promoted to the fifth level of foundation building at any time." Huan Caiyi corrected.
"The gap between you and yourself, who are at the late fourth level of foundation building, is not huge, but at least there is a world of difference." Kong Haoran continued.
Zhao Jingang, a physical cultivator, was honest and loyal by nature. He didn't know what to say and just kept nodding.
As they were talking, the aura of the three of them suddenly changed, and they all turned into the fifth level of foundation building.
"What? The fifth level of foundation building? How can that be possible?" Mi Suhui couldn't accept it at all. He almost fell to his knees, raised his hands above his head, and howled in disbelief.
"I have been guided by Senior Brother Xu along the way, and I have gained a lot of insights. I have finally cultivated to the fourth level of foundation building. How can you only reach the fifth level of foundation building?" Mi Suhui stared at the three people and said, "Tell me, have you three been practicing hard in secret?"
“No.” Huan Caiyi smiled brilliantly, and said tenderly and touchingly: “Just like usual, eat, drink and sleep, and the cultivation level will break through on its own.”
"The reason is very simple." Kong Haoran shrugged and said, "This shows that there is a gap between those with natural spiritual roots and those with natural spiritual roots. It is obvious that your talents are not as good as ours."
Zhao Jingang nodded frantically.
Li Shaobai couldn't sit still when he heard this: "Hey, you guys said Mi Suhui is trash, why don't you take me with you? I'm at the sixth level of foundation building, I can beat you guys."
Li Shaobai finally found an opportunity to show off. His aura immediately opened up, and the terrifying aura of the sixth level of foundation building swept in all directions, shocking countless people.
"Is it really the sixth level of foundation building?" Kong Haoran and the other two were shocked.
"Let me correct you. It's the late stage of the sixth level of foundation building, the peak of perfection." Li Shaobai corrected calmly.
"..."
Everyone was silent for a while.
Immediately, a fierce quarrel broke out among the five righteous people. Mi Suhui questioned that Kong Haoran, Huan Caiyi and Zhao Jingang were secretly practicing hard, which was a shame for their natural spiritual roots.
Huan Caiyi and the other two questioned Li Shaobai's secret cultivation, saying it was a shame for his natural spiritual roots.
They quarreled fiercely and finally planned to have a sparring match on the spot.
Because this involves their dignity as having natural spiritual roots and immortal bodies.
"Ahem." Xu Gu coughed dryly and said calmly, "Mi Suhui's cultivation is slow because he has focused most of his attention on completing tasks with us. Doing tasks consumes a lot of mind and energy. After all, it is a big task, so it is normal that it affects his cultivation.
"Li Shaobai's cultivation speed is fast because he has realized his own great Dao and found his own great Dao opportunity, so his cultivation speed is naturally fast."
Thanks to Xu Gu's explanation, the five righteous men did not fight each other, which was considered as their acceptance of this statement.
Xu Gu also breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn't help shaking his head.
Fortunately, I am smart and can fool them.
Otherwise, if they noticed that their cultivation progress would slow down every time they followed me out on a mission, that would be inappropriate.
"Three demon children, please come in quickly."
Seeing that the righteous five stopped arguing, the second brother Ping Wuqi said anxiously:
"A bunch of creditors have come to our Demon Cave, and our eldest brother is going to be beaten to death."
“…” Xu Gu’s mouth twitched.
Big Brother, as the acting Lord of the Demon Cave and the acting Lord of the Demon Sect, is about to be beaten to death by his creditors. You are here to welcome us with great joy, right?
……
Yin Yang Sect.
"What a great thing!"
Jinghao's uncle, Taoist Zhao Feixun, ran back to the sect in a hurry. Without saying a word, he directly called out all the true elders, supreme elders, and the sect master.
The Yin Yang Sect's meeting hall was filled with the sect's top leaders.
Although the meeting hall was dilapidated, it was sheltered from the wind and rain and had all the seats needed. It was not as shabby as outsiders had imagined.
The senior executives sitting here have no holes in their clothes, and their faces are not pale or yellow. Although their temperament is not as good as the senior executives of other super sects, they are still not as unbearable as outsiders imagine.
“What great news? Don’t you know that I am practicing the method in dreams?” A shriveled old man with a face as wretched as Zhao Feixun said with a frown.
He is the true elder of the Yin Yang Sect.
Because poverty prevented him from enjoying the glory of the outside world, he resolutely practiced the method of dreaming, hoping to feel comfortable in his dreams.
But the curse he carries is too terrifying.
Even in his dreams, he still couldn't get rid of poverty. Fortunately, if he ate a free meal or forcibly enjoyed other splendors in his dreams, he didn't have to worry about being beaten to death. At most, his beautiful dream would turn into a nightmare and scare him.
Therefore, he is still obsessed with practicing the Dharma in dreams.
The other elders also looked at Zhao Feixun with displeasure.
They are all very busy, and they would definitely be upset if they were called for no reason.
In particular, this meeting hall passed down from their ancestors is already a dilapidated building. Every additional use will result in a huge loss. For them, it is a gamble.
What if the council hall collapses? Where will the money come from to build a new one?
"Also, where is the magic weapon on you? Did you pawn it? Are you trying to save your life? This is passed down by our ancestors and is to be passed down to the younger generation. And you lost it. What will we do when we go out on a mission again?"
As they were talking, an elder noticed that Zhao Feixun had returned with light luggage, and all the sect's magical weapons he had with him were lost!
For a moment, all the core elders looked at Zhao Feixun with murderous intent and an extremely hostile look.
If Zhao Feixun cannot give a reasonable explanation, the following scene will be very bloody.
"Humph!" Zhao Feixun stood up proudly and said, "A bunch of people without vision! Look, what did I bring back for you?"
"What?" The elders were stunned and asked in confusion.
"You know Xu Gu, right? He's a talented young man who's been very popular recently! He promised to come to our Yin Yang Sect when he has time to discuss marriage!"
As Zhao Feixun spoke, he took out the contract signed by Xu Gu from his arms.
The scene was quiet at first.
Instantly, it completely boiled over.
"What did you say? Xu Gu? The young genius Xu Gu who had an ordinary background and ordinary talent, but possessed amazing wisdom and made a series of achievements that went down in history?"
"The Xu Gu who runs a chain of clinics for sleep paralysis?"
"He said he wanted to form an alliance with us? Is he blind?"
The elders asked excitedly in unison.
"Yes, it's him!" Zhao Feixun said proudly, "What do you mean blind? I convinced him with my emotional and logical appeals!"
Jing Hao, who was standing next to him, twitched his mouth.
What a good way to persuade people with emotion and reason.
You almost broke your head at that time.
"However, he just plans to come and take a look. If there is a suitable one, he will agree to the marriage. If not, then let it go." Zhao Feixun frowned.
"That's not a problem."
"Hehehe, he has come to our Yin Yang Sect, can he still run away?"
"As long as he comes, the marriage will be a done deal."
The elders of Yin Yang Sect are very confident.
"When will he come? Did he tell you the exact time? Never mind, let's prepare first. Gather all the pretty and elegant female disciples and train them in advance." The sect leader's eyes lit up and he spoke.
"I don't know the exact time." Zhao Feixun shook his head and said, "But we shouldn't have to wait too long. The contract has been signed anyway. If he can't wait, just urge him.
"That's not the problem. The main issue is who to choose to marry him."
"Yes. Isn't this a call for female disciples to be trained? When the time comes, he can choose. There are so many of us..." said the sect leader.
"No, I don't want female disciples." Zhao Feixun shook his head and said, "How can female disciples catch his eye? He is so outstanding and has amazing wisdom. Even if they really become disciples, I'm afraid they will be so young and inexperienced that they will be confused and even betray each other."
"So?" The sect leader hesitated.
The other elders also nodded in approval, looking towards Zhao Feixun expectantly to listen to his suggestions.
“Let the Sect Master, the eldest sister, the third sister, the sixth sister, as well as the first, third and seventh elders, go on a blind date with Xu Gu to see which one he likes.
"By then, with the means of my senior sisters and junior sisters, won't they bewitch him to death? They will definitely make him help us make money, grow stronger, and achieve immortality..."
Zhao Feixun said happily.
The elders nodded frequently as they listened, expressing their approval.
"No! I object!" The sect leader looked shy, her beautiful body swaying. The more she listened, the uglier her expression became, and finally she spoke loudly.
A dignified clan leader is marrying a young talent? What is this? Is he selling out the clan leader? How can there be such a ridiculous marriage!
She wanted to seek support, but found that the other six elders or supreme elders who were named, some blushed and were very shy; some remained silent; some were very reserved, but did not object; some even opposed, but not fiercely; there was even a supreme elder who was named who was actually very happy.
Basically, everyone except her agreed to this proposal.
"Objection is futile." Seeing this, the elders said in unison.
"What do you mean objection is invalid? I am the sect leader!" Sect Leader Mingyuexin said coquettishly.
She was dressed simply, in coarse cloth trousers and a short shirt, with long light brown hair, three thousand black hair like a waterfall, long hair fluttering in the wind. A wine gourd was hung around her waist.
His image and temperament are very much like that of a menial disciple who has been exploited for a long time and has given up on himself, just waiting to die.
However, the strips of cloth that bound her slender waist and the linen shirt that was about to burst showed off her proud figure to the fullest, and it was obvious at a glance that she was very strong. The terrifying aura that burst out from her from time to time further proved this point.
The elders looked at each other and said quietly, "If we acknowledge you, then you are the sect leader. If we don't acknowledge you, then you are not the sect leader."
“???” Mingyuexin raised her eyebrows, with question marks written all over her face.
