210: Lin Xuan's death
Lin Xuan, whose soul had been searched, wished he could explode on the spot.
However, when he saw Zhi Meng's meticulous care for Gu Qing, Lin Xuan was dumbfounded, unable to believe that the cold and heartless Zhi Meng also had such a tender side.
He knew that even if he gave the whole world to Zhi Meng, he couldn't even get a single glance from her.
Why could Gu Qing, a sinister and despicable villain, receive Zhi Meng's affection?
Also, what was the deal with the two little 'yaojing' Zhi Meng mentioned?
Could she be referring to Yan Hongluo and Hongluan?
So, Yan Hongluo didn't save him because she had already colluded with Gu Qing?
Gu Qing had taken both master and disciple?
Gu Qing had thoroughly devoured his most beloved sister?
Thinking of this, Lin Xuan was consumed by hatred and fury, his hatred and jealousy towards Gu Qing almost overflowing from his eyes.
"Why..."
Lin Xuan didn't curse Gu Qing, but rather cried out to the heavens in indignation.
He couldn't understand why the cold and heartless Zhi Meng would care for Gu Qing.
Even more, he couldn't understand why a ruthless demoness like Yan Hongluo would also dedicate herself to Gu Qing.
And there were Chu Yao, Chu Ling'er, Su Qingyue, Bai Suying, Lin Chuqing, Xiao Hongdou, the sisters Liu Ruyan and Liu Ruyi, and Jiang Yu.
Why were all these heavenly maidens infatuated with Gu Qing?
A surge of jealousy almost burned away Lin Xuan's sanity.
Lin Xuan couldn't imagine how happy Gu Qing must be with so many stunning goddesses by his side.
At this point, Lin Xuan felt that he was truly 'green' to the point where his ancestral grave was billowing with green smoke.
"You can die now."
Gu Qing looked down at him, raising his hand and crushing him into dust with a single palm strike.
He had already squeezed out Lin Xuan's last bit of value; there was no use in keeping him alive.
Watching Lin Xuan turn to ashes, Gu Qing suddenly felt an ominous premonition rise within him.
"System, I killed Lin Xuan, why didn't you give me any notification?"
"It's simple, Host, you haven't truly killed Lin Xuan."
"Are you saying this was Lin Xuan's clone?"
"This is Lin Xuan's true body, but his True Spirit is in the River of Time. He can revive at any time. Only by annihilating his True Spirit can he be considered truly dead, and only then can you seize his destiny."
"???"
"He can still revive?"
"Yes."
"Good heavens, that was all for nothing."
"It's not entirely for nothing. He originally had three lives. If the Host wants to kill Lin Xuan, you must first kill his reincarnated body. Only after Lin Xuan experiences three deaths will his True Spirit emerge from the River of Time."
Gu Qing was shocked to hear this and quickly pressed, "How many times has this been?"
"This is the third time. Next time he revives, his True Spirit can only emerge from the River of Time."
"That's good then."
"Lin Xuan is really hard to kill," Gu Qing suddenly thought, feeling that Lin Xuan was the true protagonist of destiny, impossible to kill by any means.
The protagonists he had killed before were, at most, fake protagonists, easily eliminated by him.
Thinking this, Gu Qing suddenly had a thought and continued to ask, "Is it useful if I curse his True Spirit?"
"It is useful, but the Host's cultivation must at least reach the Immortal King realm."
"...Forget it, I'll cross that bridge when I come to it."
Gu Qing shook his head, ending his conversation with the System.
Lin Xuan was temporarily dead, so Gu Qing could focus on improving his cultivation.
But before returning to the Star God Temple, he had to go see the two 'yaojing', Yaoyao and Hongluan.
Gu Qing stepped across the endless star river and entered Yaoyao's cave abode.
"You're back! Wuwu, I thought you didn't want us anymore..." Hongluan's eyes lit up when she saw Gu Qing. She pounced on him, whimpering with a wronged expression.
"How could that be? I'm here to take you both back to the Star God Temple."
As Gu Qing spoke, he clearly felt Hongluan's delicate body stiffen slightly, and he couldn't help but chuckle to himself. What a little actress.
He glanced at the half-human, half-fox Yaoyao.
"Yaoyao, come here."
Yaoyao, who was doing her best to impersonate Yan Hongluo, heard this and her taut, cold, and indifferent little face instantly broke down.
She slowly shuffled her feet, her small face looking miserable, as if she was facing a flood or a ferocious beast.
Gu Qing was speechless. Wasn't it just teaching Yaoyao a little more knowledge? Was it really necessary for her to be so afraid of him?
Shaking his head, Gu Qing tossed out Lin Xuan's treasures: "I have no use for these things. See if either of you like any of them."
Hongluan and Yaoyao looked at the glowing sphere floating in mid-air, which contained countless treasures that people dreamed of.
The worst among them were Saint Medicines and Saint Artifacts, and there were also Divine Medicines, Divine Artifacts, and that Immortal Cauldron.
Both of their eyes widened simultaneously, filled with disbelief.
They knew Gu Qing had many treasures, but they truly hadn't expected that Gu Qing wouldn't even care for Immortal Artifacts.
"Don't just stand there dumbfounded. What you consider treasures are just trifles in Gu Qing's eyes."
"Don't be so wishy-washy and annoying."
Seeing that the two were about to refuse, Yan Hongluo transmitted a message.
"This..."
The master and disciple exchanged glances. Seeing Gu Qing's expression gradually grow impatient, both of them tacitly swallowed the words they were about to say.
They began to select some Saint Medicines and Divine Medicines that they could use.
Finally, Yaoyao chose the Immortal Cauldron, and Hongluan chose a Divine Artifact longsword.
Both of these treasures were forged from celestial gold and could be upgraded to Immortal Artifacts.
After all, they were treasures used by the protagonist, so they couldn't be bad.
"Have you chosen? It's fine to take them all. If you don't want them, I'll give them to others," Gu Qing said with a smile.
Give them to others?
Hongluan had initially felt quite embarrassed.
After all, she felt that by deceiving Gu Qing's feelings and beauty, she had already wronged him greatly.
If she were to also deceive him out of wealth, her conscience would be somewhat uneasy.
So she only wanted to take things that would be very helpful to her.
But when she heard that Gu Qing was going to give them to others...
And it was very likely that he would give them to other 'fox spirits', she immediately took everything.
It was simply outrageous! He was actually going to support other 'fox spirits' right in front of them!
Hongluan threw herself into Gu Qing's arms, whimpering, "Wuwu, you're so good to me, I'm going to give you a litter of little Hongluans."
How could such a devastatingly beautiful enchantress only engage in green tea bitch tactics?
And she wanted to run away with the baby, right?
Gu Qing looked at the 'yaojing' in his arms, his expression unreadable.
"I... I'm also going to give you a litter of little foxes." Yaoyao's small face was so red it looked like it was about to drip blood, and her magnetic, squeaky voice became even more squeaky.
Alright, alright, so this is how they're playing.
If he let them get pregnant, he, Gu, would lose.
Let's see who thoroughly devours whom.
For the next three days, Gu Qing patiently taught the two little knowledge.
"Do you really not want to come back with me?"
"We do."
"It's just..."
The two beautiful women's eyes darted around, and they stammered, "We are, after all, the Sect Master and Vice Sect Master, famous throughout the All Heavens Myriad Realms. Wouldn't it be bad if we just left with you without any proper status or title?"
In short, the two of them were a bit unwilling to lose face.
They felt that leaving with Gu Qing like this was too cheap.
Although Gu Qing had given them many treasures, the betrothal gifts were absolutely unique in the heavens, but outsiders wouldn't know that.
And it also needed to be legitimate, right?
"Then I'll have the sect send you betrothal gifts?"
Gu Qing quite liked this pair of 'yaojing' master and disciple, and there was no harm in a proper marriage.
"Mmm!"
The two hummed in agreement, blinking their eyes, their hearts in a turmoil.
At first, they only wanted to have a child and leave the father, but now, how did it come to the point of getting married?
"Then it's settled."
"These are your betrothal gifts."
Gu Qing left all the precious liquids to the two of them.
As for the Xuan Huang Mother Qi, Gu Qing did not intend to give it.
It wasn't that he was reluctant, but rather he was afraid that Yan Hongluo might have some ulterior motives.
After all, this was an Immortal Emperor of the demonic path, with ruthless methods.
Once she suspected he possessed an Innate Spirit Treasure of the Xuanhuang Great Dao, it was inevitable that she would be tempted.
Even if he were to give it, he would need to observe her for a longer period of time.
"Master, marrying the little scoundrel doesn't seem so bad after all," Hongluan said with a complex expression after Gu Qing left.
These past few days, whenever she thought of parting ways with Gu Qing, her heart would ache.
"Hmm, I think so too."
Yaoyao pursed her red lips and replied softly.
"I say, you two, that's enough."
"If you want to be together, be together. If you want to have a child and leave the father, then do so. As long as you're happy, why bother with such Tangled?" Yan Hongluo complained impatiently.
Although she was the one who suggested having a child and leaving the father, that was because she didn't know Gu Qing was so outstanding, right?
She wasn't one of those stubborn old fogeys; she was too lazy to fuss over such trivial matters.
People live in this world, aren't they supposed to live freely and unrestrainedly?
"Whew!"
Hearing Yan Hongluo's words, the master and disciple both let out a sigh of relief, their faces beaming with joy: "That's great! I thought Sister Hongluo would object, since we are one body with two souls."
Upon hearing this, Yan Hongluo simply closed her eyes and began to comprehend the Supreme Great Dao, too lazy to bother with this stupid fox.
"Master, quickly see what kind of betrothal gifts the little scoundrel gave us."
Hongluan's captivating, melon-seed-shaped face showed excitement.
These were her betrothal gifts; she was getting married.
"Mmm~"
Yaoyao hummed, her eyes curving into a smile, and upon opening the jade bottle, her eyes widened in shock.
"What kind of treasure is this?"
A rich vitality surged out, permeated with wisps of Law power.
Just a single breath made both their blood boil, and their physical bodies seemed to have undergone a sublimation.
"This is... a treasure liquid that has no side effects, no resistance, and can infinitely boost physical cultivation!?"
"But this is too much..."
The master and disciple were overjoyed, chattering incessantly, with joy for the treasures, but even more so, because these were given by Gu Qing, indicating that Gu Qing was very fond of them both.
"It's a pity we couldn't get pregnant with a cub," Yaoyao said with a look of regret after putting away the treasures.
Hongluan also felt immense regret, and at the same time, couldn't help but curse out loud: "We have a secret technique! If it weren't for the little scoundrel having a double, we would have gotten our wish long ago! It's all that dog Lin Xuan's fault."
