34: Chapter 34: Everyone has their own agenda, is Tan Tai and Qing Xuan jealous?

Chapter 34: Each with Their Own Schemes, Tantai Qingxuan's Jealousy?

Jun Mengqing began recounting her experiences to Gu Shengge.

Not long after Gu Shengge was taken away by Old Ancestor Chenxiao, she, still a small fox at the time, became agitated because she couldn't find him.

She refused to let anyone else from the Gu Family touch her, and in her emotional state, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Bloodline within her awakened.

Soon after, the Qingqiu Empress descended upon the Gu Family, took her away, and erased the memories of everyone in the Gu Family.

After being brought back to Qingqiu, the Qingqiu Empress named her Jun Mengqing, enfeoffed her as the Young Emperor, and taught her to Cultivate.

Later, she also joined the Jietian Sect, becoming the Sect Leader's personal disciple and being enfeoffed as a Saintess.

Under the dual Cultivation of Qingqiu and the Jietian Sect, Jun Mengqing's Cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds; she has now reached the Late Stage of Nascent Soul, and among her peers, few can rival her.

After listening to Jun Mengqing's experiences, Gu Shengge hadn't expected that the little fox he casually bought back then actually possessed the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Bloodline.

However, this was all thanks to the jade disc of creation; without it, even if Jun Mengqing had the Nine-Tailed Bloodline, she would not have been able to Awaken it.

“Benefactor, Mengqing has no way to repay your life-saving grace from back then.

If you ever need anything in the future, you can command Mengqing at will, and Qingqiu and the Jietian Sect will surely lend their full support.”

Jun Mengqing's pretty face was serious as she solemnly promised Gu Shengge that if he ever needed help, the two major forces behind her would assist him.

Gu Shengge nodded: “Saintess Jun, I appreciate your kindness.

If I encounter difficulties in the future, I will not be polite.”

Seeing her benefactor accept her kindness, Jun Mengqing's enchanting face revealed a bright smile, instantly exuding an irresistible charm.

“It's getting late, Mengqing won't disturb Benefactor any longer.

Let's meet again at tomorrow's auction.”

After explaining her background, the Jietian Saintess looked at the sky; night had already fallen, and if they continued talking, it would probably be dawn, so she bid farewell to Gu Shengge.

Gu Shengge nodded and watched Jun Mengqing leave.

As he watched the Jietian Saintess's retreating figure gradually disappear, a subtle gleam flashed in Gu Shengge's eyes.

Qingqiu, Jietian Sect, interesting…

From beginning to end, he didn't believe a single word Jun Mengqing said.

Even if Jun Mengqing was truly the little fox, so what?

A pet he only kept for a year now claiming to repay a debt of gratitude, do you believe it?

Moreover, Jun Mengqing knew his biggest secret.

Gu Shengge guessed that the reason the other party sought him out was probably related to the jade disc of creation.

The jade disc of creation could activate hidden Bloodlines within living beings, causing them to undergo atavistic transformation.

If this news were to be released, not to mention the Human Race, the Yao Race would definitely go crazy, as they more or less possess some Divine Beast Bloodlines within them.

To be honest, the moment Jun Mengqing revealed her identity, Gu Shengge had already harbored killing intent.

However, he was unsure if Jun Mengqing had told others about the secret of Bloodline transformation, so he did not act rashly.

Furthermore, as the Holy Maiden of Jietian, he couldn't guarantee whether she had a Dao Protector accompanying her.

After weighing the pros and cons, Gu Shengge chose to wait and see, observing Jun Mengqing for a period of time.

If she did not leak the secret of the jade disc of creation, then he would control her.

If she did, then he wouldn't be blamed for being ruthless.

Gu Shengge exhaled deeply, calming the killing intent in his heart, and looked up at the bright moon.

Little fox, don't force me...

At the same time, in another ancient alley.

Jun Mengqing's gentle and enchanting demeanor from before had vanished, her alluring face now tinged with a hint of coldness, her golden pupils as deep as an abyss, and an air of majesty permeated her brows, truly revealing the arrogance of the Young Emperor of Qingqiu and the Jietian Saintess.

“Saintess, why didn't you let this old servant capture the Qiankun Daozi?

With the Saint Sect's foundation, although the Qiankun Taoist Sect is strong, it's not enough to be a threat.”

A purple-haired old woman appeared beside her, respectfully yet confusedly asking.

Although the Qiankun Taoist Sect ranks among the top ten in the Qiongsang Domain and has a strong foundation, in the eyes of the Jietian Sect, it is still immature.

It doesn't even possess a World-Suppressing Immortal Artifact or a Dao Integration Grand Power; it's merely a slightly larger ant.

Since the Saintess wished to know the Qiankun Daozi's secret, she could have simply captured him directly and brought him back to the Sect for Soul-searching.

Why go to such lengths and use herself to entice him?

Jun Mengqing glanced at the purple-haired old woman and said indifferently: “Granny Zi, do you think you have the strength to capture him?”

Upon hearing this, Granny Zi hesitated.

Although she had reached the Nascent Divinity Celestial Being stage, she was only at the Myriad Longevity Realm.

And the Qiankun Daozi, when he had just broken through to Nascent Soul, had once suppressed a Myriad Longevity Great Demon, so she really might not be able to capture him.

“Granny, if you can't capture him and expose our objective, then what kind of trouble do you think it will bring us in the future if a Prodigy, ranked first on the Human Prodigy List, comes to hate the Jietian Sect after he has fully matured?”

Jun Mengqing continued to question her, as the hypothetical situation she brought up had indeed occurred in the history of Qiong Sang.

Over four thousand years ago, there was a great Sect in Qiong Sang that had a conflict with a Prodigy ranked seventh on the Human Prodigy List at the time.

They slaughtered his Sect and killed all his relatives and friends, but the Prodigy managed to escape.

Then, in just over seven hundred years, that Prodigy returned with overwhelming power, having reached the Dao Integration Realm.

He single-handedly destroyed that great Sect and even set up the Blood Fiend Absolute Formation, using the Bloodline of everyone in the great Sect as a guide and his own Cultivation as a sacrifice, to slay all Bloodline-related beings in the world.

According to the Jietian Sect's uncertain statistics, the number of beings who died due to the Blood Fiend Absolute Formation on that day exceeded hundreds of billions.

And this was only a Prodigy ranked seventh on the Human Prodigy List.

However, Gu Shengge was hailed by the Xuantian Tower as the most talented person in Qiong Sang in ten thousand years.

If the Jietian Sect were to make a move on him, setting aside whether they could capture him.

Even if Gu Shengge were captured, the Qiankun Taoist Sect would certainly not give up, and the Butian Pavilion would inevitably get involved, leading to a series of troubles.

Proceeding slowly is the only way to eliminate these hidden dangers.

Jun Mengqing looked up at the moon.

All of this is for the great aspiration of the Saint Sect, so Benefactor, please don't blame me...

Qiankun Palace.

As soon as Gu Shengge returned, Tantai Qingxuan suddenly appeared behind him.

This startled Gu Shengge, who subconsciously began to form hand seals and activate his techniques, but when he clearly saw that it was Tantai Qingxuan, he released his hand seals.

He lightly patted his chest, looked at his Revered Master, and said with lingering fear: “Revered Master, you appearing and disappearing like a ghost easily frightens one's heart.”

Gu Shengge originally thought his Divine Sense was sharp enough, but he hadn't expected to not even detect a trace of Tantai Qingxuan's movement.

She seemed to be one with this world, untraceable.

If Tantai Qingxuan hadn't been standing in front of him, even if he used his Divine Sense, Gu Shengge wouldn't have been able to detect the slightest trace of her.

The Supreme Dao Body, coexisting with the Dao, is truly terrifying!

Tantai Qingxuan didn't speak, just quietly looked at Gu Shengge.

Suddenly, her nose twitched slightly, as if she smelled the fragrance on him.

Although her expression remained unchanged, a subtle shift appeared in her eyes.

Tantai Qingxuan gave Gu Shengge a deep look, then turned and left.

Gu Shengge was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized what was happening and quickly chased after her.

“Revered Master, let me explain, I wasn't out messing around…”
