145: You must have done something bad again.

“I’m truly as clever as a horse…”

Gu Qing returned to his cave dwelling, beaming with joy.

With Jiang Yu, that super big shot, helping him refine it, he would definitely be able to forge an extremely powerful divine artifact.

If he were to refine it himself, it would not only be time-consuming and laborious, but the resulting artifact would certainly not be as good as one refined by Jiang Yu.

Moreover, he could only refine Supreme-grade Artifacts because he was only at the Venerable Realm and could only engrave Venerable Realm law divine runes.

Therefore, it was much more comfortable to be a big shot’s hanger-on.

The thought of Jiang Yu huffing and puffing to refine a divine artifact for him made Gu Qing chuckle uncontrollably.

“You little rascal, why are you smiling so slyly? Did you do something bad again?”

Bai Suying checked the growth of the spiritual herbs. Seeing Gu Qing’s face full of smiles, which looked sly no matter how she looked at it, as if he had stumbled upon a huge bargain, she couldn't help but feel curious.

She instantly flashed in front of Gu Qing, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and her arms crossed over her chest.

“Hm?”

Gu Qing was in a good mood, but hearing Bai Suying scold him again, he immediately retorted unhappily, “What do you mean ‘did something bad again’? I just got a great opportunity.”

“Do you even believe that yourself?” Bai Suying’s beautiful eyes slanted, her posture one of disdain.

Although she hadn’t been with Gu Qing for long, she knew his personality and wealth all too well.

Gu Qing probably wouldn’t even smile if he found an immortal artifact; at most, he’d be happy for a tiny moment.

Therefore, Gu Qing must have done something bad and succeeded in his scheme.

“I think you’re asking for a beating…”

Gu Qing was a little annoyed. The little empress actually disdained him. This was good; he liked strong-willed and arrogant empresses.

Then he would bully her until she cried, her voice hoarse from crying.

“No… I know I was wrong.”

Bai Suying turned pale with fright. Su Qingyue was still cultivating in the Ruyi Space.

She truly regretted it. She had already decided not to scold Gu Qing anymore, so how could she have failed to hold back!

“You’re scared already? But it’s too late to know you were wrong…”

It was a day later when he finished dealing with Bai Suying.

Gu Qing took out a piece of divine marrow and divine iron for her.

“The divine iron is for you to refine a divine artifact. Give the divine marrow to Father-in-law.”

“If you don’t want to refine it yourself, that’s fine too. If I encounter a suitable divine artifact for you in the future, I’ll give it to you, or if you fancy a divine artifact from any force, I’ll snatch it back for you.”

Bai Suying’s eyes were unfocused and dazed, but hearing Gu Qing’s words, a glimmer of light appeared in her beautiful eyes.

“Okay!”

“There’s no need for a divine artifact; I’ll refine it myself. It won’t take much effort.”

She didn’t decline, because Gu Qing was simply too wealthy.

Leaving aside everything else, the Xuan Huang Mother Qi in the Ruyi Space alone was enough for them to cultivate to the supreme realm.

The divine marrow, which Saint Realm cultivators dreamed of, had become an inexpensive trinket.

Bai Suying was deeply moved, truly understanding the saying, “When one person attains the Dao, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.”

With Gu Qing’s resources, how could her old father not become a god?

“This is the mark to enter and exit the Ruyi Space. Within a hundred million li, you can enter and exit freely.”

Gu Qing condensed a mark to enter and exit the Ruyi Space and pointed a finger at Bai Suying’s glabella.

With this mark, Gu Qing could also use the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower to instantly teleport to Bai Suying’s side, no matter the distance.

The Ruyi Mark served as a protective charm for Bai Suying.

After Bai Suying left, Gu Qing summoned the system.

“System, give me a lucky draw.”

“Congratulations to the host for obtaining a low-grade Innate Spirit Treasure, the fire spirit bead.”

“Oh, I’m possessed by the European Emperor…”

Gu Qing said joyfully.

“Host, this is just a low-grade Innate Spirit Treasure, containing the law of fire. The Sun Divine Fire also contains the law of fire, but it needs to be upgraded to immortal fire to rival the fire spirit bead. However, the Sun Divine Fire can continue to be upgraded, so both have their own merits.”

Hearing the system’s explanation, Gu Qing’s joy of being possessed by the European Emperor instantly vanished.

Silently closing the system, Gu Qing took out two Supreme Bones and pondered how to utilize them.

If implanted into his body, he would have two more Supreme Bones.

But Gu Qing didn’t want to do that.

Because some things are not better the more there are.

He already had a more powerful Dao Bone, so why bother to distract himself with nurturing Supreme Bones?

Moreover, even if he nurtured the Supreme Bones to produce laws, could they compare to the Great Dao laws of the Dao Bone?

Rather than being diverse but not refined, it was better to wholeheartedly nurture the Dao Bone and excavate its supreme Great Dao laws.

Why Luo Li didn’t choose to fuse Ye Hao’s Supreme Bone back then was precisely because she didn’t want to be distracted, focusing on one path was the broad road to success.

Gu Qing pondered for a moment and made the same decision as Luo Li.

However, it couldn’t be refined so simply. If it didn’t give birth to laws, it would be a huge loss.

Gu Qing looked at the tattoo on the back of his hand.

The space divine rune was an Innate Treasure. When refining the Supreme Bone, extracting some divinity might increase the probability of it containing space laws.

He acted as soon as he thought of it.

Gu Qing immediately cast the Chaos Treasure Bottle Seal to refine the Supreme Bone, absorbing endless Xuan Huang Mother Qi… On the other side, in the main hall of Wuya Peak, Bai Wuya stared dumbfounded at a bottle of precious liquid and a large piece of divine marrow, his heart almost leaping out of his chest.

He quickly reacted, immediately setting up a restriction, fearing even a trace of its aura would leak out.

Such a treasure, once exposed, would lead to a devastating battle for it.

“Su Ying, these, you… never mind, it’s not important, quickly take them back.”

Bai Wuya wanted to ask how these two treasures were obtained, but the words died on his lips.

How they were obtained was no longer important.

How to quickly use them to improve his cultivation was the key.

“Gu Qing gave them to me, Father. Please accept them,” Bai Suying said with a hint of pride in her smile.

“Ah? This…”

“No.”

Bai Wuya shook his head, his expression solemn, “Su Ying, a married woman follows her husband. It’s not appropriate to take her husband’s treasures for her maiden family.”

“Father, what nonsense are you talking about? Gu Qing told me to give these to you, so you can cultivate well.”

Bai Suying chided him.

Hearing this, Bai Wuya was stunned into silence for a long time.

He casually gives away sacred artifacts and divine marrow? Is Gu Qing that wealthy?

What kind of immortal son-in-law did he find?

Bai Wuya felt an unreal sensation, like he was dreaming.

After all, these were supreme treasures that even Saint Realm cultivators dreamed of, capable of helping one achieve godhood.

When he initially agreed to this marriage, he simply felt that Gu Qing had boundless prospects and Bai Suying also possessed a special physique.

If the two became Dao companions, complementing each other, they would surely go further.

Thus, he would not have failed his deceased wife’s entrustment.

But now, it seemed things were completely different from what he had imagined.

Both he and Bai Suying were being propelled forward by Gu Qing. Their future was boundless, and eternal freedom seemed within reach.

“Alas, what virtue do I possess…”

After Bai Suying left, Bai Wuya stroked his beautiful beard, feeling both relieved and regretful. If his deceased wife were still alive, it would be wonderful.

He knew he wasn’t a good father, always striving for strength, but also fond of wine and women.

Bai Suying had suffered many hardships and grievances following him.

However, now, he was the one enjoying the benefits, not his deceased wife. This filled Bai Wuya with immense guilt and regret.

Bai Suying didn’t want to attract attention, so she slightly disguised herself, concealing her peerless beauty and immortal charm, and headed straight for the Cultivation Technique Hall of the Star God Temple to read cultivation insights.

What she lacked most now was an understanding of the Dao and a broad vision.

Bai Suying was like a sponge, frantically absorbing knowledge.

When she had read most of the cultivation insights, she went to read the historical records of powerful individuals.

Bai Suying was completely immersed in the ocean of knowledge, oblivious to everything outside.

“Junior Sister, hurry up, Elder Lin Xuan is about to give a lecture.”

“This, isn’t it bad, Senior Sister? Elder Lin Xuan and the Divine Maiden are sworn enemies. Wouldn’t us going to listen make us…”

“Don’t hesitate. We’re not trying to become his disciples. Listening to an Elder’s lecture is our benefit, and the Elder also earns contribution points. It’s just a mutually beneficial transaction, why are you taking it so seriously?”

“Senior Sister is right, I misunderstood.”

The two women left in a hurry. Bai Suying, who was nearby, looked thoughtful and quickly sent a message to her old father, asking about the situation with Lin Xuan and Zhi Meng.

Upon receiving the reply, Bai Suying suddenly understood: “I knew it! That little rascal definitely did something bad, and he kept denying it.”

Gu Qing’s smile was so wicked; it turned out he had ambushed and killed two of Lin Xuan’s disciples.

However, Gu Qing had even massacred Dan Peak, which made Bai Suying’s heart pound with fear.

How could Gu Qing, at such a young age, dare to commit such an unprecedented feat?

Was he really not afraid of accidentally losing his own life?

“I need to give him a good talking-to when I get back.” Bai Suying’s beautiful eyes were filled with worry.

In her eyes, Gu Qing was always a hot-blooded young man who acted too impulsively.

What if one day he got hot-headed again and did something even more daring… Bai Suying shook her head, unwilling to think further. She glanced at the direction where everyone had disappeared and followed them.

Lin Xuan had lost his disciples yet still had the mood to give a lecture; he was probably up to something insidious.

Bai Suying felt that Lin Xuan likely wanted to take on disciples to build connections and gain a certain status and power.
