374: Chapter 372: Jun Mengqing’s troubles, Lin Chen reappears

In fact, the Master of Xuantian Pavilion had already arrived personally.

He sat in the Sect Master's main hall, somewhat anxious. Just now, Sect Master Mu Qianyang told him that Gu Shengge had gone to the Sky Burial Underworld this time and even brought back the remains of his own son.

This made him stand up instantly in excitement, his face filled with unspeakable grief and bewilderment.

"Is that true? Sect Master Mu, is what you said really true?"

"He... Did Young Friend Gu really go to such a dangerous place as the Sky Burial Underworld?"

Mu Qianyang nodded affirmatively: "Naturally, it is true. I will call him over now."

Gu Shengge arrived very quickly. The Master of Xuantian Pavilion immediately stood up, paused for a moment in a daze, and cupped his hands, saying, "Many thanks, Dao Child!"

Gu Shengge knew that the Sect Master had probably told him everything, so he didn't waste any more time and took out the remains.

Only white bones remained of the Master of Xuantian Pavilion's son. Through the Bloodline, there was a subtle, innate connection, and the Master of Xuantian Pavilion's posture almost instantly hunched over.

How difficult it was for a Cultivator to bear offspring; losing his Bloodline Legacy was akin to losing half his life.

On the gleaming white bones, a faint light flickered, as if a residual obsession was bidding farewell to its old father.

After a long while, the Master of Xuantian Pavilion said bitterly, "Dao Child Gu, thank you... thank you! If there is ever a place where this old man can be of use in the future, just command it, and I will not refuse!"

At this moment, Gu Shengge found it difficult to offer comfort: "Senior, you overstate it. Since you generously bestowed upon me back then, this Junior should naturally repay you."

The Master of Xuantian Pavilion did not stay long. He took his son's remains and went back to bury them.

After Gu Shengge handed over the remains, the matter with the Master of Xuantian Pavilion was temporarily concluded. Gu Shengge once again turned his thoughts to the Zhongtian Star Domain.

Last time, he only operated in the outer Major Thousand Worlds and Middle Thousand Worlds of the Zhongtian Star Domain. Later, he was ambushed and pursued by the System, so he couldn't go to the core area.

This time, perhaps it was time to venture into the core area.

Of course, it was also because he had some concerns before. After all, the foundation of the Qiankun Taoist Sect was not strong. If he were not there, the Qiankun Taoist Sect's strength and foundation would not be able to govern the vast territory.

Once he died or disappeared, the Qiankun Taoist Sect would become like flesh surrounded by wolves, everyone wanting a bite!

Especially those old established forces. His rise was too fast, allowing the Qiankun Taoist Sect to dominate the Qiongsang Domain before they could even react.

They must have been unconvinced and still harbored ambitions, but now with Long Tai in charge, all problems were resolved.

Gu Shengge returned to Qingxuan Peak. Tantai Qingxuan had stopped Cultivating after his return, accompanying him daily. Occasionally, they would also go out to play, and that transcendent aura she possessed faded a little more, replaced by a touch of worldly charm.

Of course, Gu Shengge knew that all this was only temporary. Once he left, she would definitely return to her original self.

Pei Yuhan and Su Bei Huang also attended to him. Golden Dragons soared through the clouds, imperceptible to Mortals, but Cultivators felt an unspeakable pressure.

The other party did not make a move, perhaps not even glancing at them, but that restrained pressure still made them tremble with fear.

Gu Shengge visited many blessed lands and grotto-heavens in the Qiongsang Domain. Wherever he went, the various Sects and forces were all trembling with fear.

They all speculated whether Gu Shengge was demonstrating his power to the beings of the Qiongsang Domain.

Whether he was or not, they certainly dared not harbor any disloyal thoughts anymore.

Gu Shengge toured for over a month, and Jun Mengqing emerged from seclusion. Seeing that she had returned to the Qiongsang Domain, her mouth twitched slightly.

"When did we come back again?"

Gu Shengge said helplessly: "Many things happened, and we accidentally left the Zhongtian Star Domain. I plan to depart again in a month."

"Are we still going to search for and hunt Systems in those Major Thousand Worlds?"

Gu Shengge shook his head: "Let fate decide. Ordinary Systems don't give me much of a boost, and I think those order-level Systems should have noticed and are probably coming for me. I must stay away from the Qiongsang Domain to prevent the Systems from invading this world en masse."

A look of anger appeared on Tantai Qingxuan's exquisite little face, and a fierce glint flashed in her eyes.

"Are those damned Systems at it again?"

Gu Shengge patted her fair and tender hand: "Revered Master, don't worry. With my current strength, no matter how strong the Systems are, they are nothing more than that. It is absolutely impossible for them to take my life."

Tantai Qingxuan did not say much, as her current cultivation was still too weak, only at the Great Perfection of the Dao Integration Realm, probably powerless against high-level Systems.

Jun Mengqing's expression was solemn: "Alright, I'll go prepare. We'll depart in a month."

A month later, after Gu Shengge bid farewell to Tantai Qingxuan and greeted Mu Qianyang, he was about to leave.

This time, Pei Yuhan did not follow. She had already reached the Void Refining Realm in cultivation and was fully capable of rebuilding the Lingxiao Sword Sect.

The key was that she felt she would only be a burden if she stayed by Gu Shengge's side. It was best to train and Cultivate in the Qiongsang Domain.

The rebuilding of the Lingxiao Sword Sect, backed by the Qiankun Taoist Sect, proceeded smoothly. Among the Cultivators who had once been scattered, some joined other Sects, while others rushed back.

Pei Yuhan undoubtedly became the Sect Master of the Lingxiao Sword Sect. Some smaller sword Sect forces rebuilt by influential Lingxiao Sword Sect Disciples also merged into her Lingxiao Sword Sect. This time, the Lingxiao Sword Sect was truly revived.

Jun Mengqing also planned to go to the Zhongtian Star Domain. When she arrived at the Qiankun Taoist Sect, her face looked a bit grim.

Gu Shengge couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong with you? Why the long face? Is the Sect forcing you to marry again?"

Jun Mengqing shook her head bitterly, then nodded.

"No, what do you mean by that?" This expression left Gu Shengge bewildered.

Jun Mengqing said bitterly: "It's not that they're forcing me to marry again, it's Lin Chen! He's still alive, and he's back! And his strength has surged. The Jietian Sect in the Zhongtian Star Domain has been completely taken over by him. It is rumored that his cultivation has reached the Mahayana Realm or even stronger, and he is renowned throughout the entire Zhongtian Star Domain!"

Gu Shengge was startled. When he killed Lin Chen that day, it seemed that a wisp of his remnant soul had indeed escaped. Even at that stage, Lin Chen, that fellow, actually managed to turn the tide?

Gu Shengge's expression gradually became solemn. He had only been dealing with the System for a few years. What could allow Lin Chen to rise again in such a short time was probably only the System!

Moreover, the level of this System must not be low, and its methods were extraordinary. To help Lin Chen reach the Mahayana Realm or even a stronger level in such a short time, it must at least be a Lord of Systems, right?

Gu Shengge thought, without fear in his heart, his face even faintly showing excitement.

Jun Mengqing, beside him, watched his expression change from bewilderment to surprise, and now to faint excitement, becoming even more confused.

"No, Benefactor! Gu Shengge! Are you even listening to me?"

Gu Shengge waved his hand: "No need to worry. If I can kill him once, I can kill him a second time. Even if he gets a more powerful System, it will be useless!"

Gu Shengge said, then asked: "Is there anything strange about his return this time?"

Jun Mengqing's face grew even angrier: "I was just about to tell you about that. That madman, after returning this time, is like a dog in heat, constantly seeking out beautiful women. He has already married over fifty wives and has more than three hundred children!" (End of Chapter)
