217: They are all filial daughters. Xiao Hongdou wants to cry.

“They are all filial daughters!”

Back at Star Dao Sect, Gu Qing sighed with genuine emotion.

His Hongmeng Ruyi Tower could take people to ascend to the Immortal Realm.

He asked around, but no one was willing to enter the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower.

Lin Chuqing didn't want to go, for Luo Rou's sake, and also because her own cultivation was too low.

Following Gu Qing would only make her a burden.

And if she went to the Immortal Realm, where would she go?

She couldn't possibly join the Star God Temple, could she? That was impossible.

She carried the legacy of the Secluded Immortal Palace, and there was also a Secluded Immortal Palace in the Immortal Realm, one that was no weaker than the Star Dao Sect.

Lin Chuqing could only join the Secluded Immortal Palace in this life.

To join the Secluded Immortal Palace, she could only rely on natural ascension, allowing the Secluded Immortal Palace to receive her.

Su Qingyue and Bai Suying were unwilling for the sake of their parents and family.

Once they ascended, it would likely be a permanent farewell, and with the aptitudes of their parents and family, the chance of ascending to the Immortal Realm was very slim.

Additionally, it's better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.

Here, they held high status and the protection of the entire Star God Temple, allowing them to cultivate peacefully and without worry.

It would be different in the Immortal Realm; everything would have to start from scratch.

Including Gu Qing.

Gu Qing might not be able to protect them.

After all, their physiques were too special.

The Yin-Yang Chaos Body was even more attractive than the Lunar Divine Body.

There was also the Glazed Immortal Body, which could help cleanse one's aptitude and comprehend the Great Dao; this was absolutely the most top-tier cauldron in the world.

It's better to be safe than sorry.

If they were targeted by a powerful being in the Immortal Realm, it would only bring great danger to Gu Qing.

In any case, Gu Qing left behind enough resources, including the Golden Gourd, which he also left for Bai Suying, to ensure their ascension.

Perhaps in less than a thousand years, they would be able to cultivate to the peak of the Divine Fire Realm.

A thousand years, for them, was merely the time it took to enter seclusion a few times.

Therefore, not ascending with Gu Qing was the most correct choice.

“Senior Brother.”

On Goddess Peak, a clear and pleasant voice suddenly rang out.

Xiao Hongdou's eyes sparkled, her expression joyful.

She hadn't expected Gu Qing to take the initiative to send her a message; today was truly a good day.

“Hongdou.”

Gu Qing always felt a sense of familiarity with this fellow countryman.

After learning about Xiao Hongdou's exploits in tricking Lin Xuan from Lin Chuqing, he liked her even more.

This was a worthy minor villain to cultivate.

Moreover, Xiao Hongdou had a system, although this system was quite useless, almost like a mascot, but it was still a system.

Xiao Hongdou's future achievements would definitely not be low.

Therefore, Gu Qing didn't mind using some precious liquid to befriend her.

And while he was at it, he entrusted her with looking after his women.

After all, Su Qingyue and Bai Suying were female leads, naturally attracting male leads.

Although Gu Qing believed that the two would absolutely not betray him.

But protagonists, these creatures, always had various reasons to get entangled with female leads; if they got entangled, just thinking about it made him feel disgusted.

At this time, Xiao Hongdou, this minor villain, was needed to stir up trouble.

“Senior Brother, what kind of treasure is this?”

Xiao Hongdou saw the precious liquid, and her beautiful eyes almost turned into the shape of gold coins.

She didn't decline and accepted it directly.

Her years as a minion taught her one truth: seize every opportunity.

Only by becoming stronger would she have a future and be able to do what she wanted.

She kept Gu Qing's kindness in her heart.

If she had the chance, she would definitely repay him.

Xiao Hongdou thought so.

“This is precious liquid, which can enhance cultivation and strengthen the origin of life...”

Seeing this, Gu Qing was even more satisfied with her.

As expected of a villain from modern times, her personality perfectly suited his taste.

“Hongdou, let's be frank. I need you to help me look after Qingyue and Su Ying, don't let anyone poach them from me.”

“Ah?”

Hearing this, Xiao Hongdou's mouth dropped open in shock.

Because in her opinion, Su Qingyue and Bai Suying were both good women who were devoted and gentle.

It was impossible for them to cheat.

Moreover, if someone were to pester them, why wouldn't Gu Qing deal with it himself?

Gu Qing briefly explained to her about his impending ascension to the Immortal Realm.

“I'm not afraid of others, but I'm afraid of those with great destiny who harbor ill intentions towards them. Hongdou, do you understand what I mean?”

“I understand.”

Xiao Hongdou nodded vigorously.

She knew the backgrounds of Su Qingyue and Bai Suying, and she also knew the terror of the destiny protagonists.

Therefore, Xiao Hongdou felt that Gu Qing's worries were very necessary.

It's just... Xiao Hongdou didn't understand.

According to system detection, Gu Qing was clearly just a person with an ordinary fate.

Aside from being handsome, talented, rich, highly cultivated, and having a transcendent status, he was otherwise unremarkable.

So, how did Gu Qing know about the existence of the Children of Destiny?

“Xiao Ba, come out and explain.”

“Master, is there a possibility that he is a powerful NPC? Someone who can contend with the protagonist and exist outside the plot.”

Xiao Ba's voice was cute and childlike, and as she spoke, her big eyes darted around, avoiding eye contact.

“Hmm, that makes sense.”

Xiao Hongdou pondered for a moment and accepted this explanation.

After all, besides this explanation, she really couldn't think of what role Gu Qing belonged to.

“Hongdou, you are a good girl. When you ascend to the Immortal Realm, be sure to tell me immediately; I won't treat you unfairly.”

“Whatever conditions you have now, feel free to state them. I will try my best to satisfy them if I can.” Gu Qing said with a solemn expression.

“None!”

Xiao Hongdou shook her head; in the Star God Temple, she truly lacked nothing.

Looking at Gu Qing, Xiao Hongdou's eyes were filled with reluctance.

Such a dazzling Senior Brother, so gentle and generous, always protecting her.

She hadn't even held onto this brilliant golden thigh for long before he was about to ascend.

“Even if you don't ask, I must give.”

“How about this, I'll take you to meet a few Old Ancestors and let them protect you.”

Gu Qing pondered for a moment, then led her into the Old Ancestor's palace.

Among them, there was a female cultivator Old Ancestor who, upon seeing Xiao Hongdou's Exquisite Immortal Body, immediately became so excited that her coffin lid almost couldn't stay shut.

She immediately asked Xiao Hongdou to become her disciple, as for Bai Wuya, he could go wherever it was cool.

Xiao Hongdou was not one to be particular; upon hearing that an Old Ancestor beyond the Divine Fire Realm wanted to take her as a disciple, she immediately knelt down and kowtowed several times with loud thuds.

Without a second of hesitation.

Gu Qing chatted with the Old Ancestor for a while, handed over some unused cultivation techniques and divine artifacts, and then left with Xiao Hongdou.

“Wuwuwu, Senior Brother, you are too good to me.”

As soon as they left the underground grotto-heaven palace, Xiao Hongdou excitedly hugged Gu Qing, tears streaming down her face as if they were free.

Heaven knew, she was just a minor cannon fodder in the sect who wouldn't survive three chapters, relying on deception to change her fate and come to the Star God Temple.

But after arriving at the Star God Temple, she was truly alone and unfamiliar with the place.

On the surface, she smiled brightly and was full of enthusiasm, but the anxiety, unease, and helplessness in her heart were known only to her.

After all, this was a Xuanhuan world where the strong preyed on the weak and human lives were like grass.

One wrong move, and she could die without a complete corpse.

Her achievements today were all thanks to Gu Qing.

Without Gu Qing, Bai Wuya probably wouldn't even have looked at her.

Even if she eventually joined the Star God Temple, she would only be a struggling minion in the outer sect.

However, now, she had awakened the Exquisite Immortal Body, gained a high status, and had a master who surpassed the Divine Fire Realm.

She lacked no cultivation resources, not even divine medicine and Three Lights Divine Water.

She also had treasures she swindled from Lin Xuan, enough to allow her to cultivate peacefully and become a god.

Gu Qing was simply her fated benefactor.

She hadn't even had time to repay him, and Gu Qing was already about to ascend to the Immortal Realm.

Xiao Hongdou felt like crying just thinking about it.
