375: Chapter 373: God's Pure Land, the Escape of Meng Qianyu

Gu Shengge's eyes flickered; this reminded him of something. Among the seven order-grade systems, there seemed to be a fellow with a more children, more fortune system.

According to that System's rules, it most likely involved marrying many wives and fathering many children to obtain various rewards.

To be honest, Gu Shengge felt some disdain for this System. Many women were kidnapped or taken by force, coerced into relationships, and then through some messy means, the man would think the women would change their minds or even fall in love with him.

But in reality, it was more likely they had simply resigned themselves to fate. After all, they couldn't win in a fight, couldn't match his power, and their bodies had already been taken. In the context of the current cultivation world, they had no choice but to resign themselves or die.

Of course, it was still unknown whether that System truly was a more children, more fortune system.

After all, that was a sequence-grade system; it shouldn't appear so soon, right?

Gu Shengge felt that the opponent would likely send a few Lords of Systems or System Sovereigns to deliver some experience points to him first... Gu Shengge and Jun Mengqing set off immediately. This time, Jun Mengqing had been recalled by the Jietian Sect. As soon as news of her return spread, an envoy from the Jietian Sect arrived.

Lin Chen had now displayed unparalleled talent, and since his Foundation within the Jietian Sect remained, he had once again become the core of the Sect.

His forceful and overbearing return caught all the Jietian Sect Cultivators off guard, including Jun Mengqing.

The two of them took a teleportation formation and began another journey through a teleportation channel. This trip was much smoother, without any further anomalies, though the journey was still long.

In a Major Thousand World within the Zhongtian Star Domain, clouds in the sky seemed to be summoned, gathering toward the center to form a massive cloud vortex.

Within the white cloud vortex, it looked like a mysterious passage leading beyond the heavens, deep and distant.

On Hongdao Mountain at the center of the world stood the world's most powerful Sect, the Shenmeng Pure Land!

Beneath the cloudy sky, the Shenmeng Pure Land was dead silent, without a single sound. Even the clear weather could not mask the Sect's somber atmosphere.

Within the Sect, Disciples bustled about in a hurry, with few stopping or communicating.

In the Shenmeng Pure Land, at the Shenmeng Auspicious Land, thirteen middle-aged women dressed in cloud-patterned brocade robes were gathered, with an eighteen- or nineteen-year-old girl at the center.

This was the most mysterious place in the Shenmeng Pure Land. The Spiritual Qi here was a hundred times that of the outside world, and cultivating on this Shenmeng Auspicious Land could increase one's Comprehension Ability tenfold. With various boosts, it was the strongest Foundation of the Shenmeng Pure Land.

Among the thirteen women in cloud-patterned brocade robes, the leader stepped forward and walked up to the girl.

"Meng Qianyu, don't blame your Junior Martial Uncle. We had no choice. That is the Jietian Sect Saint, and the Jietian Sect is coming with great force. We have no choice, do you understand?"

"I don't understand! Sect Master, you know how many Dao Companions that Lin Chen has married recently. Why must we..."

The middle-aged woman beside her frowned, her face filled with irritation and dissatisfaction: "Meng Qianyu, this is the Sect's arrangement. As the Saintess of the Shenmeng Pure Land, you have only this path to follow. There is no other choice!"

Meng Qianyu looked at her silent Revered Master, her heart filled with sorrow: "Revered Master, your Disciple only wants to ask one last time: do you truly want me to become that man's Dao Companion and be just one of his many women?"

The Sect Master of the Shenmeng Pure Land remained expressionless and said coldly, "Disciple, I understand the growing arrogance you've had since childhood as the number one Prodigy of this Shengfeng World. You have your pride and are unwilling to serve the same man with other women. But that lord is indeed different; even in the core worlds of the Zhongtian Region, his talent is top-tier! You... are marrying up."

At this moment, Meng Qianyu completely understood the attitude of her Revered Master and the Elders. Her face was filled with disappointment and misery.

"Revered Master, Elders, I heard everything you said in the main hall that day. You want to curry favor with the Jietian Sect, so you intentionally sent information about me to the Intercepting Heaven Sect Holy Son. I know everything."

As soon as these words were spoken, the Sect Master and Elders of the Shenmeng Pure Land all changed expression. Sect Master Li Muyun even shouted angrily, "Rebellious Disciple! What is wrong with sacrificing you alone to let our Shenmeng Pure Land continue to stand at the peak of the continent for a hundred thousand years? Why are you so stubborn!"

As she spoke, she felt a surge of humiliated rage and rushed forward to grab Meng Qianyu's arm. However, the moment her hand touched her, Meng Qianyu's figure dissipated before her eyes, with only her voice still echoing.

"Revered Master, I will never agree to become one of his many Dao Companions. This is merely a Dream Illusion Clone of mine. To think that you and the Elders couldn't see through it; now I can hide in peace. Don't look for me, for you will never find me!"

As the dissipating glow completely vanished, Meng Qianyu's voice disappeared as well.

The Elder who had spoken cursed, "I never expected this little wench's Shenmeng Illusion Art to have reached such a level that she could even fool us!"

From behind, another Elder said anxiously, "What should we do? The Intercepting Heaven Sect Holy Son will arrive in a few days, yet we've lost the Saintess. How can we possibly withstand the Intercepting Heaven Sect Holy Son's wrath then?"

Sect Master Li Muyun's gaze was dark: "Immediately mobilize everyone to search for the Saintess's whereabouts. If we cannot find her..."

She looked at the Elder beside her: "Chen Xiuyan, you were the one who made this suggestion and contacted the Jietian Sect. When the time comes, you will have to bear all the responsibility!"

Chen Xiuyan's face instantly turned pale, and a chill ran down her spine.

The strength Saintess Meng Qianyu had just displayed far exceeded her own as an Elder, and might even be on par with the Sect Master; she might have already reached the Early Stage of the Refining Void Realm!

How could she find such a being, and how would she even dare to?

But as things stood, she had no choice and could only bitterly accept.

"Sect Master, I understand."

After she left, she immediately dispatched people to search for Meng Qianyu's whereabouts.

Three days later, from within the clouds gathered in the sky, a beam of dark purple divine light crashed down onto the outskirts of the Shenmeng Pure Land. This was followed by a terrifying pressure. The power that erupted in that instant caused the winds to surge and the clouds to churn, and everyone in the Shenmeng Pure Land, including Sect Master Li Muyun, instantly fell to their knees.

After a moment, the pressure gradually weakened, and a loud voice rang out from within the Shenmeng Pure Land: "We respectfully welcome the arrival of the Intercepting Heaven Sect Holy Son!"

Lin Chen scanned the area, his Divine Thought spreading out. He looked over the female Cultivators within the Sect one by one, but not a single woman caught his eye.

His face gradually darkened. The Shenmeng Pure Land dared to recommend such women to the Jietian Sect?

"Where is the Sect Master?" he asked directly.

Li Muyun immediately arrived with her people and said respectfully, "Your Highness, I am the Sect Master of the Shenmeng Pure Land, named Li Muyun. May I ask what your orders are?"
