490: Returning to Xianfeng Sect, Mu Ruoxi wakes up

As Gu Huanmeng's words fell, she immediately took out several spatial rings from her In arms.

“These contain some treasures from my Gu family, consider them an apology gift to you, sisters.”

Evidently, Gu Huanmeng’s actions were undoubtedly guided by Gu Tianxing behind the scenes.

Su Changqing chuckled, naturally seeing through everything.

A look of surprise flashed across everyone's faces.

After all, the former Gu Huanmeng was not like this.

Her arrogant demeanor showed no regard for anyone present.

However, despite their shock at her current attitude, the women did not give her a good look.

“Hmph, a weasel paying respects to a chicken—it has no good intentions.”

Chu Xuan said indignantly.

Jiang Jiusheng and Wei Ranzhi naturally echoed her sentiments:

“No need, Miss Gu, we cannot accept your kind offer.”

“That’s right!”

The two women were still upset about being bullied by her before, so they naturally refused to accept Gu Huanmeng’s treasures.

Upon hearing this, Gu Huanmeng’s face turned somewhat ashen, and for a moment, she was at a loss.

As the direct daughter of the Gu family, she also had her pride.

But now, that pride was being worn away little by little.

“Alright, these treasures are quite good; you all should accept them.”

Su Changqing suddenly spoke, breaking the silence among them.

Upon hearing him, Gu Huanmeng instantly looked up, as if hearing heavenly music, and the grievances in her heart seemed to be soothed at that moment.

Gu Xiran looked over, and Su Changqing winked at her.

As Su Changqing’s capable assistant, she naturally knew what he meant. So, she stepped forward and casually took a spatial ring.

“From now on, if you ever show any arrogant or overbearing expression again, don’t blame me for expelling you from Qingran Peak!”

Although Gu Xiran’s words were sharp, for Gu Huanmeng, they were nothing short of a lifesaver.

After all, being able to remain here was already an immense blessing, and she naturally dared not ask for too much.

As for her previous haughty demeanor, it would no longer exist.

“I, I will definitely change!”

She nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking at rice.

Gu Xiran nodded calmly and hummed in acknowledgment.

Afterward, Jiang Jiusheng and the other women also stepped forward and each took a spatial ring.

Although the women’s faces still remained cold, Gu Huanmeng was already overjoyed to have her apology gifts accepted.

Seeing this, Su Changqing chuckled:

“Alright, don’t linger here anymore. Your husband needs to check on your recent progress.”

Su Changqing smiled charmingly, then naturally embraced Gu Xiran and the other women, gently pushing them towards the room.

Gu Huanmeng and Li Muxi, who had just arrived, remained standing in their original spots.

However, Su Changqing waved his hand, beckoning both women to join them, and they sat down to discuss the Dao.

There is strength in numbers!

Imparting the Dao and teaching skills naturally cannot show favoritism.

After all, Su Changqing’s current Body Cultivator cultivation was simply too terrifying; even staying awake for ten days and ten nights would be no problem for him.

Soon, the outside of Qingran Peak was completely silent.

Inside the room, however, spring light emerged, and cheerful music filled the air.

Time flowed on.

Seven days and seven nights later.

Su Changqing walked out, clutching his sides.

“Hiss!”

“Indeed, there is strength in numbers; it even led to a qualitative change from a quantitative one, tsk tsk tsk.”

These past few days were naturally intoxicating.

However, Su Changqing wisely retreated, as he still had important matters to attend to.

With a flicker of his figure, he appeared within the Mountain and River Shrine Diagram.

That day, Mu Ruoxi was knocked unconscious by him, had a Restriction placed on her, and had also consumed a great deal of energy during her battle with Su Changqing, in addition to being severely wounded. Therefore, it was likely she wouldn't awaken for some time.

At present, she still lay quietly on the ground, motionless.

Su Changqing walked over, kicked her, and flipped her over so she was face up.

Her exquisite beauty appeared before his eyes.

Her exaggerated figure was also completely exposed.

He had to admit, Mu Ruoxi’s figure was indeed quite good.

If he hadn't wanted to avoid taking advantage of her, Su Changqing might have found it difficult to resist.

He smiled, letting her remain unconscious, and then walked towards the mountain of corpses nearby.

“These nearly five hundred Immortal Reverent Realm corpses can refine quite a few Immortal Reverent Realm Puppets. What a great harvest!”

Su Changqing’s lips curled slightly upward, and his eyes gleamed with joy.

One must know that the original strength of these corpses was not low; there were even a few Immortal Venerable Pinnacle ones.

If they were refined into Puppets, although their strength would not reach their Peak during their lifetime, they would still be comparable to Immortal Reverent Late Stage.

If all of them were refined, Su Changqing would gain a batch of Immortal Reverent Realm Puppet subordinates.

This would be a significant aid.

Even in the Immortal Realm, this would be an extremely terrifying force.

Su Changqing watched for a while, then sat cross-legged, took out the Shennong Cauldron, and then condensed the Burning Sky Azure Flame before beginning the refinement process.

One by one, the Immortal Venerable corpses began to be refined in his hands, with various top-tier Immortal materials and rare treasures added, finally undergoing countless refinements.

Soon, an Immortal Venerable Puppet emerged.

A terrifying aura emanated, illuminating the entire Shanhé Shèjì Tú world.

Gazing at this first Immortal Venerable Puppet, Su Changqing’s face showed a hint of a smile.

“Immortal Venerable Middle Stage, not bad.”

This Puppet alone was comparable to the combat power of an Immortal Venerable Middle Stage, which was considered good combat power even in the Immortal Realm.

Afterward, Su Changqing continued to refine.

After an unknown amount of time, countless Immortal Reverent Realm Puppets were successfully refined.

Another three days passed, and Su Changqing had refined a total of two hundred Immortal Venerable Puppets.

Just as Su Changqing was continuing to refine, Mu Ruoxi’s body suddenly stirred.

Her fair fingers trembled slightly, her face twitched, and her beautiful eyes slowly opened.

A wave of weakness swept through her entire body.

“This... where is this?”

She felt a splitting headache, yet the scenery before her was something she had never seen before.

These beautiful mountains and rivers, filled with abundant Immortal Qi.

She remembered that day, she was severely injured by Su Changqing, and then she fainted.

She should have died, so how could she appear here?

It didn’t make sense!

Just as she was bewildered, a familiar voice came.

“Oh, finally awake?”

Upon hearing this, Mu Ruoxi swayed unsteadily to her feet, then turned around, and saw the existence that made her grit her teeth.

“Su Changqing!!”

“Where exactly is this place, and what do you want to do?!”

Mu Ruoxi frowned, her eyes filled with vigilance.

This guy was not a good person.

Su Changqing stood up with a smile, patting the dust off his clothes:

“This, ah, is my territory. What, don’t you like it?”

His grinning expression made Mu Ruoxi’s heart fluctuate uneasily.

Immediately, her gaze fell upon the group of Puppets standing beside Su Changqing.

Those were all Immortal Venerables under her command.

“What are you going to do to them?!”

Mu Ruoxi’s face turned ugly.

Su Changqing chuckled and said:

“Of course, I’m refining Puppets. These are all excellent materials; they can’t just be wasted.”
