15: Master, I can't live without you
Lingyun Peak!
"Chu Xuan, why are you back?"
Inside the Immortal Cave, Gu Xiran was faintly excited.
She didn't expect Chu Xuan to return, and with Su Changqing at that.
Good, this is great.
A few days ago, she had been bullied quite a bit by Su Changqing.
It was regrettable that her cultivation hadn't fully recovered.
She was probably no match for Su Changqing now.
But with Chu Xuan back, Su Changqing would definitely not dare to do anything to her again!
This Wicked disciple!
He could finally let her go.
Gu Xiran was very excited, yet beyond this excitement, she felt a faint sense of loss in her heart.
When she noticed this feeling, she quickly shook her head.
"It must be the influence of the True Love Gu, that damned Wicked disciple."
Chu Xuan said with a grin:
"I completed a Mission I took a few days ago, and today I happened to return to the Sect to submit it."
The Mission Chu Xuan took was naturally a Class A Mission, very tricky, and even she had to put in a lot of effort to complete it.
So that's how it was.
Gu Xiran nodded.
Chu Xuan continued:
"I didn't expect to run into Little Junior Brother being bullied by people from Bi Yun Peak when I went to the Mission Hall to submit the Mission, so I stepped in and taught them a lesson."
"Hmm?"
Gu Xiran's brows furrowed slightly, and her face immediately fell.
"What happened?"
"Why would people from Bi Yun Peak attack Changqing?"
Whether it was the effect of the True Love Gu or what Gu Xiran truly thought, in her heart, Su Changqing absolutely could not be bullied by outsiders.
Daring to bully him was like slapping her, Gu Xiran's, face; it absolutely could not be forgiven!
The two women's gazes simultaneously turned to him.
Su Changqing coughed lightly and explained what happened at the Mission Hall, starting from Li Yunsheng inviting him, to his own 'mantis stalks the cicada' move.
Of course, Su Changqing didn't say a word about the System.
After listening to Su Changqing's words, Chu Xuan and Gu Xiran were both stunned.
"Little Junior Brother, you said you killed the Heavenly Ice Python? And those four, Li Yunsheng and the others, were also taken care of by you?"
Gu Xiran also stared intently at Su Changqing.
"Yes."
Su Changqing smiled and nodded.
"Hiss!"
Chu Xuan and Gu Xiran both simultaneously gasped.
Although neither the Heavenly Ice Python nor Li Yunsheng and the others were anything in their eyes, merely ants.
But!
Su Changqing was only a Martial Artist at the Mortal Shedding Realm Peak.
Invincible across a major Realm?
That's too outrageous, isn't it?
This combat power, let alone Chu Xuan, even Gu Xiran herself wasn't this terrifying when she was young.
Gu Xiran had experienced Su Changqing's Aptitude, so she naturally knew this Wicked disciple wasn't lying.
After all, in one day, he cultivated two martial arts from entry-level to Perfection.
This Aptitude is simply off the charts.
"Little Junior Brother, you're awesome!"
Chu Xuan gave a thumbs-up with an admiring expression.
"This matter was initiated by Bi Yun Peak; Changqing was merely defending himself.
Since Bi Yun Peak dared to lay a hand on you, in a few days, I will personally collect this debt."
Gu Xiran said coldly, her words carrying an unquestionable tone.
This was her Disciple.
A mere Bi Yun Peak dared to attack Su Changqing; they must be tired of living.
If Gu Xiran's cultivation hadn't fully recovered yet, she would have probably gone there tonight.
After all, Bi Yun Peak and Lingyun Peak did not have a good relationship; they were even somewhat hostile.
The Bi Yun Peak Lord's strength had always been inferior to Gu Xiran's.
"Hehe, thank you, Revered Master."
Su Changqing said with a beaming smile.
As expected of my dearest Revered Master, so domineering!
I want to rush!
"In another month, it will be the Sect Competition. At that time, Changqing can participate in the Outer Sect Disciple competition. It's said that the reward for the first place in the Outer Sect Disciple competition this time is generous, and one can also enter the Tai Xuan Sect Forbidden Ground."
Gu Xiran spoke.
The Tai Xuan Sect Forbidden Ground, besides the Sect Master, even Peak-level figures like Gu Xiran were not allowed to enter.
It was said to contain extremely terrifying resources, which could not only greatly enhance cultivation but also cleanse Aptitude, allowing one to undergo a complete transformation.
There was only one spot every fifty years.
And the first place in this Outer Sect Competition would receive this spot.
"Hiss."
"If Little Junior Brother can enter the Forbidden Ground, his strength will definitely advance by leaps and bounds."
Chu Xuan's eyes lit up, and her heart was filled with longing.
Gu Xiran nodded.
"Indeed."
"The Sect Master's Disciple is not simple; her Aptitude is extraordinary, possessing a Saint Grade Physique, and she has the potential to Breakthrough to the Saint Realm in the future. It seems he wants to pave the way for her."
Gu Xiran speculated.
A few days ago, the Tai Xuan Sect Sect Master took in a Disciple, planning to cultivate her as the future Sect Master.
That's why there was this reward for the first place in the Outer Sect Competition.
However, Su Changqing's face showed a faint smile when he heard Gu Xiran's words.
Saint Grade Physique?
Is that so impressive?
"I originally thought Little Junior Brother had little chance of winning first place in the Outer Sect, but now it seems very possible."
Chu Xuan said with some surprise.
The combat power Su Changqing displayed gave him a complete chance to contend for first place in the Outer Sect.
If he could enter the Forbidden Ground, it would greatly benefit his strength improvement.
Gu Xiran also nodded.
"Not bad."
"However, the Disciple the Sect Master accepted is not simple, and Changqing's current cultivation is still not stable enough."
Gu Xiran changed the subject and said.
Although the combat power Su Changqing displayed was strong, his cultivation was still a bit lacking, after all, he was only at the Mortal Shedding Realm Peak.
If that Sect Master's Disciple had any trump cards, Su Changqing's cultivation would definitely put him at a disadvantage.
Therefore, Gu Xiran continued:
"In my opinion, why not let Changqing go out to cultivate with you for a period of time.
I heard that a ruin appeared in Feiyun City, which you guard, not long ago. It is said to have been left behind by an Monarch Realm martial artist from ancient times, attracting many Loose Cultivators. It's a good opportunity for Changqing to gain some experience."
Su Changqing: "????"
What the hell?
Go out for experience?
Holy cow, no!
Su Changqing immediately panicked.
"Revered Master, no, Disciple cannot leave you; I... I won't go out, I'll stay here on Lingyun Peak and guard you."
Su Changqing was sobbing, it was truly heart-wrenching.
Anyone who didn't know would think it was deep Revered Master-Disciple affection.
Chu Xuan looked at Su Changqing's appearance, and even her heart began to be moved.
Oh my goodness.
Little Junior Brother is truly a man of strong emotions.
It truly is deep Revered Master-Disciple affection.
However, seeing Su Changqing's appearance, Gu Xiran's mouth twitched.
Good, good, good.
You dog.
Do you really think I don't know what you're thinking?
Isn't it just coveting my body as your Revered Master?
Despicable.
Of course, these words naturally couldn't be said in front of Chu Xuan.
If she knew that this Wicked disciple had succeeded with her, what would become of her Revered Master's dignity!
"Cough, cough."
"Changqing, your Revered Master is doing this for your own good. You go out for some experience, and your Revered Master also needs to go into seclusion during this time. Just go with Chu Xuan properly."
