345: Finally died because of greed

Gu Qing was in a good mood.

He had continuously refined immortal pills in the Boundless Space for three hundred years, using up all the immortal spirit herbs and obtaining hundreds of millions of top-grade immortal pills.

Besides that, Gu Qing also gained insights during the pill refining process and successfully broke through from the peak of Profound God Triple Layer to the early stage of Profound God Fourth Layer, achieving a qualitative leap in his strength.

This secluded cultivation could be said to have brought double blessings.

“So many top-grade immortal pills are enough for the Boundless Divine Sect to use for hundreds of millions of years,” Gu Qing categorized them and placed them into several storage rings.

He did not plan to leave all of them to the sect; most of them would be sold to exchange for immortal crystals.

The Eternal Universe was so vast; he wanted to see it.

Once he accumulated enough immortal crystals, he would use the Time-Space Shuttle to explore and see the landscapes at the end of the universe.

And also, the mysterious Mount Wuliang.

According to the memories of those ancient beings, Mount Wuliang was the origin of the Eternal Universe, the center of the entire Eternal Universe, and the celestial pillar that supported it.

Mount Wuliang was immeasurably vast and boundless; even Immortal Emperors found it difficult to glimpse a corner of it.

It was rumored that the innate Great Gods of the Heaven-Opening Era had not perished but had been cultivating the Dao on Mount Wuliang.

There were also rumors that Mount Wuliang was the only place to leave the Eternal Universe and ascend to a higher plane.

The innate Great Gods had disappeared from Mount Wuliang.

Of course, these were just information passed down by the Star Dao Sect; Gu Qing was not sure whether they were true or false.

Gu Qing walked out of the Boundless Space and looked up.

He saw Jiang Yu in the garden, holding a three-year-old child, humming a lullaby, and gently patting Xian'er's little bottom.

“This is not good…” Gu Qing’s eyelids twitched.

After his seclusion, Xian'er was already three years old.

If Zhi Meng were to come out, wouldn't Xian'er be a grown-up girl?

Zhi Meng would be furious if she got a grown daughter.

“Give Xian'er to me!”

Gu Qing reached out, wanting to take Xian'er.

The reason she grew so fast was entirely because Jiang Yu had sealed her origin.

As long as it was unsealed and placed in the Boundless Space for nurturing, Xian'er would still be a divine demon cub.

Her age would be calculated in tens of thousands of years.

Her mind would also be like a child's, pure and flawless, growing with age.

“Go away, someone is causing trouble outside the gate; hurry and deal with them.”

Jiang Yu was too lazy to bother with him and continued to coax Xian'er to sleep.

Who on earth was so blind?

Gu Qing walked out of the Boundless Heavenly Palace with a grim face, arriving at the mountain gate in one step.

“What exactly happened?”

“It’s over, how did the Lord come out of seclusion…” Jiao Yanni and the other person saw that the newcomer was Gu Qing, and their pale faces became even paler.

If Wang Yue had come, they would still have hope, as Wang Yue was a madwoman who never listened to reason.

Moreover, Wang Yue was extremely protective of her own, domineering and strong-willed, full of defiance, and would not listen to a single word of reason.

Or if a Profound God from their lineage had come, they would also have hope, as they had been together for thousands of years, and their sisterly bond was deep.

But it just had to be Gu Qing who came.

“Lord Gu…”

The crowd was in an uproar, looking at Gu Qing with agitated expressions.

After waiting for so many years, they finally saw Gu Qing; their wait was not in vain.

The Profound God Great Power sitting in the void could no longer sit still, opened his eyes, and with a thought, moved to the front of the Boundless Great Gate.

Yang Shangyun stroked his beard, a slight smile on his face, and sent a message to his son, Yang Zhi.

Yang Zhi bowed respectfully as a junior, neither humble nor arrogant, saying, “Junior Yang Zhi pays respects to Lord Gu.”

Gu Qing didn't even glance at him, frowning as he asked, “What exactly happened?”

Since he took power, he hadn't done anything evil, had he?

Were these two so afraid of him because of their social anxiety?

“They asked about the sect's disciple recruitment, and I said I didn't know,” Jiao Yanni said with a trembling voice.

“And what else?” Seeing no further explanation, Gu Qing patiently asked again.

“My tone was bad, and I offended a Profound God senior.”

“…And what else?”

“That’s all!”

“If there’s nothing, why are you scared?” Gu Qing suddenly felt a pang in his liver.

He thought it was some big deal, but it was just this?

And it was completely unrelated to him.

Are you kidding me?

Watching the two exchanging questions and answers, completely ignoring him, a hint of awkwardness flashed across Yang Zhi's face, making him somewhat at a loss.

Yang Shangyun's heart was filled with anger, but on the surface, he showed no trace of it.

Gu Qing's disregard and the offense from these two lowly maids were ultimately minor matters.

He had to join the Boundless Divine Sect, share in the good fortune, and then arrange for his clansmen to cultivate within the Boundless Divine Sect.

This matter concerned the rise of the Yang family and its dominance over the Immortal Realm; no mistakes could be allowed.

“Lord Gu, this junior wishes to become your disciple…” Yang Zhi took a deep breath and bowed again. He didn't believe that Gu Qing wouldn't be tempted by him at all.

After all, he possessed a supreme divine physique, which had evolved to a very profound level, and his strength could rival that of a Saint Son.

No matter which sect he was placed in, he would be a highly sought-after individual.

“Boom!”

Before he could finish speaking, Gu Qing obliterated him with a single glance.

What kind of so-called genius? In his eyes, he was no different from a mortal. Gu Qing could create as many people like Yang Zhi as he wished.

Actually, he didn't care that this father and son were scheming against him.

Because Gu Qing knew very well that everyone present, including all beings in the Immortal Realm, wanted his inheritance, didn't they?

Who didn't want to be cultivated with all the Boundless Divine Sect's might?

Who didn't want to take advantage of the situation to get the great fortune of achieving the Dao for free?

If he were to truly pursue it, he would never be able to finish settling the accounts.

But this father and son dared to show off their power in his sect, so they could not be allowed to live.

“You…” Yang Shangyun, still in a state of fantasy, was instantly terrified.

He didn't understand what madness Gu Qing was in, why he would kill his son without a word.

His son was a supreme genius coveted by everyone.

“You, too, die for me.”

Gu Qing punched out, contracting space, his fist print surging forward without resistance.

Since breaking through to the middle stage of Profound God, his comprehension of the Boundless Great Dao had advanced another level, and his realm had made a qualitative leap.

Although Yang Shangyun's cultivation was higher than his, it was generally not possible for someone in the middle stage to challenge someone in the later stage.

However, Yang Shangyun cultivated a minor Dao, while Gu Qing cultivated the Supreme Great Dao.

The two were like a fierce tiger and an ant; their essence was different, allowing for absolute crushing.

Yang Shangyun's body was squeezed and deformed under the spatial restraint, his eyes bulging.

Yang Shangyun reacted extremely quickly, immediately unleashing his full power, and space emitted a shattering sound like glass.

He wanted to break free from the spatial restraint, create distance from Gu Qing, and then fight to the death.

It wasn't that he was confident he could match Gu Qing, nor was it that he wanted to avenge his son.

Rather, he knew very well that in front of Gu Qing, who was proficient in the Dao of Space, he couldn't escape at all; he could only fight to the death.

But he ultimately overestimated himself.

Before Yang Shangyun could break free from the restraint, he was blown apart by a punch, blood mist scattering.

The Profound God's laws were immortal and indestructible, allowing him to instantly restore his physical body, but his strength was greatly diminished, and his magical power dissipated.

“Why?”

Yang Shangyun roared.

He was sure he had never offended Gu Qing.

Why would Gu Qing kill their father and son for no reason?

To say that his purpose in joining the Boundless Divine Sect was impure, but who among those present didn't have the same purpose as him?

As for whether it was because of Jiao Yanni and the other person, Yang Shangyun didn't even consider it.

Because in his mind, everyone below Profound God was an ant.

He hadn't done anything to the two; it was the two who offended him.

Logically speaking, Gu Qing should have killed these two to jointly uphold the dignity of Profound Gods, making them sacred and inviolable.

“Buzz!!!”

Gu Qing was too lazy to waste words, sacrificing the Profound Fire Treasure Mirror, and the World-Destroying Profound Light enveloped him.

With his current strength, he could unleash the full power of the Profound Fire Treasure Mirror; anyone below the Immortal King would die when illuminated.

“It’s over…” Seeing Gu Qing's indifferent eyes, Yang Shangyun felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

He treated others as ants, and Gu Qing also treated him as an ant.

Feeling his physical body, divine soul, and Dao laws rapidly dissolving under the illumination of the World-Destroying Profound Light.

A sense of desolation rose in Yang Shangyun's heart: “After countless trials of life and death, I ultimately died because of greed.”

He still couldn't understand why Gu Qing would kill him.

But he knew that he died because of greed.

If he hadn't wanted to enjoy the fruits of others' labor, wanted an Immortal King Artifact, and wanted to break through to the Pseudo-Immortal King, he wouldn't have come from another heavenly domain.

If he died, the Yang family would also be annihilated.

Without Gu Qing's intervention, the Profound God families in his heavenly domain would not let the Yang family off.

The Immortal Realm was an Immortal Realm where the strong preyed on the weak and only the fittest survived.

The Yang family occupied so many resources; even if they offered those resources with both hands, they would not escape their fate.

They would definitely be eradicated.
