Chapter 40: The Master of Xuantian Pavilion Appears, The Power of Golden Luck!

No one in Xuantian Tower expected Gu Shengge to directly make a move; he didn't even want to say an extra word.

His blazing gaze was like two peerless divine weapons; although it only forced back the two Nascent Divinity Celestial Beings of Xuantian Tower, it still shocked all the people from major powers.

“Hiss~ This Qiankun Daozi is too crazy! How dare he make a move in Xuantian Tower, isn't he afraid of the Master of Xuantian Pavilion's reckoning?”

“To actually attempt to fight two Nascent Divinities by himself, should I say this guy is arrogant? Or is he foolish?”

“Xuantian Tower has stood in Qiongsang for eighty thousand years, with profound foundations that the Qiankun Taoist Sect cannot compare to. This Qiankun Daozi is in big trouble.”

“Serves him right! Who told him to be so arrogant? Does he really think that being the top of the Human Prodigy List allows him to do as he pleases? Even if he is killed by Xuantian Tower today, he brought it upon himself.”

Lightning flashed in the auction hall, water and fire surged, and three figures collided. The mere aftershocks were more than ordinary Cultivators could bear.

Fortunately, the auctioneer activated the hall's defensive array immediately, protecting Xuantian Tower's property and preventing collateral damage.

Thunder rumbled continuously, echoing throughout Xuantian Tower. Gu Shengge's black hair was wild, surrounded by silver lightning. He punched the fat Nascent Divinity, the immense force like a crushing mountain, causing the air to explode and ripples to spread!

“Profound Flame Refining Heaven!”

At the same time, the tall Nascent Divinity, who cultivated the Dao of fire, let out a low roar. Endless black flames erupted from his body, surging like a volcanic eruption, transforming into a sky-filling sea of fire, enveloping all directions, as if intending to refine Gu Shengge on the spot!

A mere Nascent Soul, daring to challenge them! What if he was the top of the Human Prodigy List? He would still be suppressed!

After punching back the fat Nascent Divinity, Gu Shengge saw the black sea of fire sweeping towards him, and a faint disdain appeared in his Dual Pupils.

Playing with fire? You've met your Old Ancestor!

“Stop!”

A red glow flashed in his Dual Pupils, and Gu Shengge let out a low roar. The Divine Ability of Fire Control, with words following the Law, controlled all the fires in heaven and earth. The black sea of fire actually stopped, no longer sweeping forward.

“What?!” The tall Nascent Divinity was greatly alarmed. He tried to continue urging the sea of fire but found it utterly useless.

Before he could think further, a lightning spear, formed from countless bolts of lightning, suddenly thrust towards his face!

The tall Nascent Divinity raised his hand to form a spell, and the power of Law transformed into a large hand, easily blocking the lightning spear. Unexpectedly, the lightning spear exploded with a boom, and endless lightning liquid spread, catching him off guard.

However, this trick was not enough for a Nascent Divinity Celestial Being.

Although the lightning liquid was powerful enough to kill a Nascent Soul, it didn't even stain the tall Nascent Divinity's clothes.

Gu Shengge naturally knew that these small tricks couldn't harm them; they were merely to buy time.

Just as he was about to cast a spell to activate his Eye of the Heavens, a small figure suddenly appeared between Gu Shengge and the two Nascent Divinity Celestial Beings.

With just a wave of his hand, all Divine Abilities, secret arts, and the sea of fire and lightning disappeared as if they had never existed.

When everyone saw who had arrived, they all showed reverence.

The two Nascent Divinity Celestial Beings of Xuantian Tower immediately reined in their magical power and respectfully bowed.

“Greetings, Building Lord!” x 2

Master of Xuantian Pavilion! Gu Shengge heard this and looked at the newcomer with his Dual Pupils.

Unlike Old Ancestor Chenxiao, the Master of Xuantian Pavilion appeared as a child, looking no more than six or seven years old. His aura was ethereal, seemingly merged with heaven and earth, yet also omnipresent.

Gu Shengge did not lose his manners. He cupped his hands and bowed, saying, “Junior greets the Master of Xuantian Pavilion.”

Luo Chen, hiding in the private room, breathed a sigh of relief when the Master of Xuantian Pavilion appeared, and he slumped onto the soft chair as if exhausted.

This is great, I'm saved!

With the Master of Xuantian Pavilion, a great Cultivator, present, he refused to believe that this Qiankun Daozi could still forcibly kill him as shown in the simulation System.

The Elder couldn't stop him, but the Building Lord surely could!

All of this development was within many people's expectations. The Master of Xuantian Pavilion guarded Xuantian City, so how could he let Gu Shengge act presumptuously on his territory?

The Master of Xuantian Pavilion turned around, his eyes, flowing with the vicissitudes of time, looked at Gu Shengge, his gaze slightly condensed as he scrutinized him.

“You must be Chenxiao's grand-disciple. Your temper is indeed just like his, so impulsive, but still somewhat polite.”

After a while, the Master of Xuantian Pavilion slowly spoke, his voice not as young as his appearance, but old and hoarse.

Hearing this, Gu Shengge smiled slightly and said warmly, “Senior, Old Ancestor ordered me to greet you.”

“He greets me? Hmph~ That guy isn't one to be so polite.”

The Master of Xuantian Pavilion snorted lightly upon hearing this. He had known that reckless fellow Chenxiao for over four thousand years and deeply understood his temperament; how could he possibly send his regards?

However, this young man was indeed polite, much more pleasing to the eye than that old man Chenxiao.

A hint of satisfaction appeared in the Master of Xuantian Pavilion's eyes as he looked at Gu Shengge. As expected of the top rank I chose.

“Greetings, Senior Cang Ming, may Senior be well.”

Jun Mengqing appeared beside Gu Shengge and respectfully bowed to the Master of Xuantian Pavilion. Representatives from other major powers also stopped watching the show and collectively appeared to greet the Master of Xuantian Pavilion.

The Master of Xuantian Pavilion nodded slightly, then continued to look at Gu Shengge and asked in a calm voice:

“Young man, tell me, why are you causing trouble on my territory? Do you think you bought something too expensive here? Do you want to smash the shop or what?”

“Senior misunderstands. Junior was merely plotted against and, in a moment of urgency, feared that person would escape, which is why I made a move. I hope you will be lenient.”

Gu Shengge quickly explained. In fact, he had some understanding of the relationship between Old Ancestor Chenxiao and the Master of Xuantian Pavilion.

It was mentioned in the Old Ancestor's Chronicles in the Scripture Pavilion that Old Ancestor Chenxiao and the Master of Xuantian Pavilion were close friends and sworn brothers.

That's why he dared to fight fiercely in Xuantian Tower.

No choice, who told me I have connections.

The Master of Xuantian Pavilion frowned slightly. Someone plotting against his old friend's grand-disciple on his territory? Wasn't that slapping his face!

“Young man, are you sure?” The Master of Xuantian Pavilion asked again.

Gu Shengge nodded seriously: “Junior is willing to swear on my Dao path, someone indeed plotted against Junior!”

“Since that is the case, then I will grant you a convenience and will not obstruct you from finding the one who plotted against you.”

The Master of Xuantian Pavilion did not waste time. After all, he was an old friend's grand-disciple. If his old friend found out he was plotted against on his own territory, he would surely be ridiculed again.

Upon hearing this, Gu Shengge quickly thanked him: “Thank you, Senior. Junior will also fully compensate for the losses caused to Xuantian Tower.”

Hearing that he wanted to compensate, the Master of Xuantian Pavilion smiled mysteriously and said, “Young man, are you sure you want to compensate?”

His smile gave Gu Shengge a bad premonition. Was it very expensive?

But since the words had already been spoken, there was no reason to change them.

Gu Shengge nodded, and the Master of Xuantian Pavilion said nothing more, only leaving a sentence before disappearing.

“Good, then come to the top floor of Xuantian Tower to see me later.”

“Okay, Senior.” Even Gu Shengge didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

It seems that the golden Luck, which almost blinded his Dual Pupils, was now playing its role!

The people from the major powers also didn't expect that the Master of Xuantian Pavilion, upon appearing, would not only not punish Gu Shengge but also seem to think highly of him, even allowing him to go to the top floor of Xuantian Tower.

That was a place only Old Ancestors and power holders of great sects and sacred sects could go!

In contrast, Luo Chen slid from the soft chair, his eyes blank as he slumped to the ground, repeatedly muttering.

“It's over, it's over, it's over…”
