Chapter 121: Confession, Gu Shengge Wants to Soul Search!

“So that’s how it is…”

A moment later, Gu Shengge finished reading the memory Jade Slip, and a hint of surprise appeared in his Heavy Pupils.

Although he wasn't sure how much of the memory was true, the System Jun Mengqing encountered seemed quite consistent with a type of System he knew.

In Jun Mengqing’s memory, the person with the System was the Holy Son of Jie Tian Sect, named Lin Chen.

Three years ago, Lin Chen was just an ordinary Disciple of Jietian Sect.

Later, he obtained some Opportunity, rising abruptly, and in just two short years, he Broke through from Qi Condensation to Nascent Soul.

He then passed the Saint Son assessment and became the Holy Son of Jie Tian Sect.

Moreover, he had a habit of particularly liking to give Spirit Stones and treasures to beautiful female cultivators, earning the favor of many female Disciples and female Elders within Jietian Sect.

Jun Mengqing had also received gifts from Lin Chen, but during one return gift, Jun Mengqing overheard Lin Chen muttering to himself, communicating with an existence called “System” in the Void Realm, discussing how the treasures he gave out were returned tenfold by that System.

Although Jun Mengqing was unsure what the System was, having the given treasures returned tenfold was like a windfall from heaven; such a bizarre event was too strange.

Because of this, Jun Mengqing decided to stay away from Lin Chen and returned all the things Lin Chen had given her.

Afterward, Jun Mengqing also investigated the female cultivators who had received gifts from Lin Chen, discovering that, apart from those who had recently received gifts, some female cultivators from two or three years ago had all died and their Dao dissipated for various reasons, with not even their souls entering the Underworld.

Most importantly, the Luck of those female cultivators had been plundered.

Jun Mengqing invited a Great Ascension Dao Venerable skilled in deduction to personally deduce Lin Chen and those female cultivators.

Lin Chen was shrouded in Chaos, making him impossible to deduce.

As for those female cultivators, they all had profound Luck on them.

Jun Mengqing speculated that Lin Chen was plundering the Luck of female cultivators by giving gifts, and the existence helping him plunder Luck was that so-called System.

“I presume Benefactor has already recognized what kind of System Lin Chen possesses.

Please enlighten this humble one; this humble one will be eternally grateful.”

Although Jun Mengqing’s eyes were smiling and her voice was soft and seductive, Gu Shengge still noticed her sigh of relief.

Clearly, the System brought her immense pressure.

Gu Shengge returned the memory Jade Slip to Jun Mengqing and said indifferently, “If I’m not mistaken, the System you encountered should be a Rebate System.

It returns the things given out by the System host tenfold, a hundredfold, or even a thousandfold to the host.”

“Hiss~ How terrifying!”

Upon hearing this, Jun Mengqing’s expression changed drastically, her beautiful eyes showing traces of astonishment, and her cherry lips slightly parted as she gasped.

She had thought a tenfold rebate was already terrifying enough, but she never expected there to be a hundredfold or even a thousandfold rebate!

According to such a massive multiplier, wouldn’t Lin Tian receive a hundred or a thousand top-grade Spiritual Artifacts if he gave out one top-grade Spiritual Artifact?

The more Jun Mengqing thought about it, the more horrified she became, because these returned Spirit Stones and treasures were all offset by the Luck of the recipients.

Fortunately, she had stopped herself in time and returned Lin Chen’s gifts, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Gu Shengge looked at the Jietian Saintess’s look of lingering fear and began to ponder.

To his knowledge, these Rebate Systems would all prompt the host to find beautiful women to give gifts to, and would even specifically list the women’s appearances; the higher the score of the woman, the more the rebate.

From Jun Mengqing’s memory, Gu Shengge saw that the Rebate System Lin Chen possessed plundered the Luck of the recipients to provide rebates to the host; the stronger the Luck, the greater the rebate.

This kind of System was easy to deal with, just like the Heart Voice System, it didn't have many special functions.

Gu Shengge: “Saintess Jun, this Venerable can help you deal with Lin Tian, but this Venerable also has a condition: Lin Tian’s System belongs to this Venerable.”

“Of course, you can refuse, because with the methods of Jietian Sect, it’s impossible to capture the System; only this Venerable can do it in the entire Azure Expanse.”

Upon hearing this, Jun Mengqing suppressed her fear, revealing her characteristic charming smile, and leaned close to Gu Shengge, saying softly:

“Oh, even Jietian Sect cannot suppress it, so what methods does Benefactor possess? Is it that disc?”

With a “swish,” a fair hand, entwined with scorching silver lightning, suddenly grabbed the Jietian Saintess’s delicate, soft neck, clamping her in its palm.

Gu Shengge’s Heavy Pupils gleamed with cold light as he coldly stared at Jun Mengqing, his palm lightly clenched, as if with just a bit more force, he could snuff out Jun Mengqing’s life!

However, facing this life-and-death crisis, Jun Mengqing still maintained a smile, her charming eyes flowing with spring waves, and her golden pupils gently looking at Gu Shengge.

“Why is Benefactor so impatient? Could you please patiently listen to this humble one’s words? Afterward, whether to kill or dismember, this humble one will have no complaints.

After all, this humble one’s life was saved by Benefactor, and if Benefactor takes it back today, this humble one will still have no complaints.”

Jun Mengqing said softly, hoping Gu Shengge would give her a chance.

She knew Gu Shengge had many suspicions about her and didn’t truly trust her, but she still wanted to try.

At least to tell Gu Shengge her true thoughts, rather than letting suspicion push them further apart.

Gu Shengge gazed at Jun Mengqing, and after a long moment, he released his hand, deciding to give her a chance to explain.

Immediately, Jun Mengqing bowed to Gu Shengge.

“Thank you, Benefactor.

Please allow this humble one to explain slowly.

Benefactor’s grace of nurturing and cleansing this humble one back then, this humble one will never forget, so how could I covet Benefactor’s supreme treasure?

This humble one merely wishes to invite Benefactor to join my Jietian Sect, to jointly plan the act of ‘Slaying the Heavens and Saving the World’!”

By the end of her words, Jun Mengqing’s gentle demeanor changed, a serious expression appeared on her beautiful face, and her tone was no exception.

“Slaying the Heavens and Saving the World?” Gu Shengge’s Heavy Pupils flashed with surprise.

Jun Mengqing nodded and continued, “Benefactor, this humble one has never revealed anything about you to anyone.

The reason I approached you is actually because you are a person of great Luck deduced by a Great Ascension Dao Venerable within the sect, not because I coveted your supreme treasure.”

As she spoke, Jun Mengqing’s round, slender beautiful legs knelt on the ground, and she solemnly swore to Gu Shengge.

“This humble one swears upon my Dao path that I have absolutely not revealed a single secret of Benefactor to any living being.

May the Great Dao bear witness; if this oath is false, this humble one’s cultivation will be destroyed, my body will perish and my Dao dissipate, and I shall never enter Reincarnation!”

Gu Shengge’s expression subtly changed; such a grand oath, once violated, would surely come true.

So, all his suspicions about Jun Mengqing had been wrong all along?

Gu Shengge thought carefully; his interactions with Jun Mengqing were actually not many, at most, this was only their third meeting.

If Jun Mengqing truly wanted to seize the jade disc of creation, she could have simply invited a Great Ascension Dao Venerable or even a Great Ascension Dao Venerable to act; there was no need to be so circuitous.

Gu Shengge said indifferently, “You may get up first.”

Jun Mengqing stood up, her charming eyes looking at Gu Shengge with anticipation.

But even with the oath, Gu Shengge still somewhat disbelieved Jun Mengqing.

“This Venerable is naturally suspicious.

Unless you let this Venerable see your memories, this Venerable will not truly believe you.”

Gu Shengge made an extremely excessive request, Jun Mengqing’s expression stiffened, and the atmosphere solidified accordingly.
