479: Let Xia Ruanruan be my sister

A month passed in a flash!

Gu Qing spent almost every day accompanying Shi Jingqiong, touring scenic mountains and rivers, and experiencing the world's prosperity.

After leaving some resources, Gu Qing then tore through space and returned to the Boundless Divine Sect.

However, before leaving, Gu Qing took his mother-in-law and the nine elders of the Shi family with him, sending them to the Boundless World to cultivate.

Next was to convene the elders for a meeting.

Overall, the Boundless Divine Sect was flourishing, and all its disciples were diligently cultivating.

Taking over the Forbidden Heaven and Earth Lin Family's assets also went very smoothly, with almost no one daring to obstruct it.

The more Gu Qing thought about it, the more satisfied he became, but when he saw the deep curiosity and desire to watch gossip in the eyes of the women, beneath their respectful exteriors, he wondered what was going on.

What on earth was happening?

Gu Qing frowned, feeling puzzled, but he didn't dwell on it and said with a smile, "You all have done well!"

"It's all thanks to the Sect Leader!"

Everyone replied in unison; they wouldn't dare take credit. The Boundless Divine Sect's current glory was all shouldered by Gu Qing alone.

Furthermore, he had opened up all the sect's resources, as well as the Boundless World.

Such a heaven-defying fortune, something even peak Immortal Kings yearned for but couldn't attain. Not to seize it would be foolish.

Gu Qing hummed in acknowledgment, took out two jade bottles, and handed them to Miao Yue: "Great Elder, these are innate divine objects I stumbled upon. Select the top hundred geniuses in the sect, reward each with one drop, and the remaining hundred drops... place them in the Treasure Pavilion, to be exchanged with contribution points."

"As for how many contribution points are needed, you all decide."

"Yes, Sect Leader!"

Miao Yue replied, her expression quite curious, and she extended her divine sense to inspect them. The other elders did the same.

When they clearly saw the treasures inside, their faces instantly showed shock, and their breathing gradually quickened.

"You all should quickly cultivate a batch of Profound God disciples; do not be stingy with resources," Gu Qing said.

"Yes, Sect Leader!"

"Master, could it be that you intend to take the Boundless Divine Sect out of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm plane?"

Shu Yue's eyes flickered, suppressing the excitement in her heart, and she asked softly.

The others also looked at Gu Qing curiously.

If they were only in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, the sect wouldn't need to cultivate so many Profound Gods.

Concentrating resources to cultivate Immortal King Dao Seeds would be the wisest course of action.

After all, a hundred Profound Gods couldn't compare to a single Immortal King.

"That's right!"

Gu Qing nodded.

The Boundless Divine Sect had the Starry Sky left by the Starry Sacred Mother, and a Void Teleportation Array had been set up, allowing them to traverse the void and shuttle between planes.

He could move the sect anytime, but the Boundless Divine Sect had too few Profound Gods.

Also, Gu Qing didn't have the coordinates for the All Heavens Myriad Realms.

Without coordinates, leaving the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm plane would be asking for trouble.

In the vast universe, they wouldn't even be able to find a Life Ancient Star, let alone plunder resources from the All Heavens Myriad Realms.

"Good, good, good!"

The women were overjoyed, their excitement almost spilling from their eyes.

It was as if they could already see the Boundless Divine Sect restoring its ancestral glory and suppressing all races in the Eternal Universe.

Shu Yue quickly calmed down: "Master, do you have the Myriad Realms coordinates?"

"I will have them!"

Gu Qing didn't have them yet, but he could buy some from the Secluded Immortal Palace; he had plenty of treasures to exchange.

Or he could directly destroy the Star God Sect and reclaim the Myriad Realms coordinates left by the Starry Sacred Mother.

However, the Star God Sect moved through the vast universe. Without positioning coordinates, he couldn't find the Star God Sect at all.

He also didn't know if the Secluded Immortal Palace had the Star God Sect's positioning coordinates. He would ask the Twins later... after the women left.

Gu Qing took out his communication device to check if there were any scandalous rumors about him.

The posts on it were almost all related to the Forbidden Heaven and Earth Lin Family, discussing the Forbidden Heaven and Earth Lin Family with great enthusiasm, making it very lively.

A group of Immortal Sages seemed to have turned into a bunch of chah (melon-eating spectators) in a melon field.

Besides the matter of its destruction, there were all sorts of grievances and love-hate relationships, with people across all channels bringing up old scores, and also praising him.

Gu Qing's hanging heart finally settled.

It was indeed the right decision to entrust the matter to Xia Ruanruan, the Transmigrator girl.

Thinking this, Gu Qing sent a message to Xia Ruanruan: "Well done."

Xia Ruanruan: "Of course, you don't even need to ask who I am, hehe (♡˙︶˙♡)"

To be honest, Xia Ruanruan hadn't expected things to go so smoothly.

It could only be said that the Forbidden Heaven and Earth Lin Family's reputation was too great.

She merely exposed some information, guided it slightly, and conveniently fabricated some topics, along with some pictures, to completely clear Gu Qing's name.

Gu Qing: "I'll forgive you this time, but you need to keep a close eye on things for me; don't let my rumors resurface."

So she had become Gu Qing's free laborer, had she?

Xia Ruanruan: "...Alrighty (●—●)"

Gu Qing: "I just annihilated a few Immortal Kings. I've sent you the video. You know what to do, right?"

Xia Ruanruan: "I know, I know!"

Covering up rumors with rumors, she understood that perfectly.

But then again, she was once again startled by Gu Qing's strength; he annihilated a few Immortal Kings as if crushing ants.

She probably wouldn't be able to surpass Gu Qing in this lifetime.

Gu Qing: "By the way, did you send communication jades to the sect?"

Xia Ruanruan: "Yes, I did! I even sent a thousand pieces. Brother doesn't need to thank me. Brother's sect is sister's sect; this is what sister should do. ╰(*´︶`*)╯"

She also sold thirty thousand pieces, making a huge profit.

It had to be said that the Boundless Divine Sect was truly wealthy; any disciple could easily produce millions of catties of immortal essence.

One must know that even many Profound God Great Powers who dominated a celestial domain and looked down upon the world might not be able to produce millions of catties of immortal essence.

After all, immortal essence mines were extremely rare, hard to find anywhere, and if they existed, they were monopolized by ancient powers.

Latercomers found it difficult to obtain them and could only acquire them by selling treasures.

The saying 'the parched die of thirst, the flooded die of drowning' was absolutely true.

With her connection to Chu Yao, Xia Ruanruan simply sold all the communication jades to the Starry Sky Commerce Association.

The Starry Sky Commerce Association then auctioned them off, making a huge profit.

This was also why dozens of celestial domains around the Primordial Star Domain now had communication jades.

For Gu Qing's rumors to spread so widely, she was at least half responsible.

Gu Qing: "I thank you for nothing, you big idiot. Quickly figure out a way to get them back."

No wonder the women had that look of watching a show; they had probably been laughing at him for a long time.

Gu Qing truly wanted to whip Xia Ruanruan, this cheap younger sister, to death.

It was fine if the sect disciples enjoyed the show, but he was afraid they would become addicted and unable to extricate themselves.

After all, the fairies had been abstinent for a long time, focusing solely on cultivation, like fairies who did not eat human food, pure as the moon.

If these fairies each had a communication jade, they could learn about the world without leaving their homes, eat melons on public channels, create group chats, etc.

He was afraid that a group of shut-in girls would immediately transform into internet-addicted teenagers.

The consequences of fairies, who had been lonely for a long time, suddenly becoming addicted to the internet... Gu Qing somewhat dared not imagine what it would become.

Xia Ruanruan: "Ah? How can something that's been given away be taken back? Besides, Sister Chu decided this. She said to create a social group to let disciples broaden their horizons, better understand the situation, and better form teams to go out for training and search for treasures..."

In short, there were too many benefits to having communication jades, and Xia Ruanruan didn't understand why Gu Qing wanted to stop it.

Gu Qing: "It's over. Having you as such a troublesome sister is truly the greatest calamity from heaven for me, Gu."

Xia Ruanruan: "???"

Xia Ruanruan didn't understand.

Xia Ruanruan was full of question marks.

Gu Qing: "You don't understand. What if they lack self-control, their minds become restless, their thoughts chaotic, and they become addicted to communication jades, neglecting cultivation? What then?"

Xia Ruanruan: "..."

Xia Ruanruan understood now.

Xia Ruanruan's face was full of strangeness.

Why did she suddenly have a sense that Gu Qing was a black-hearted capitalist?

To protect the group's interests, he even wanted to control his employees' private lives... Thinking of this, Xia Ruanruan quickly shook her head, dispelling this unrealistic thought from her mind.

How could Gu Qing, such a good person, who was good to his Dao Companions and good to his disciples, cultivating them almost at all costs, be a black-hearted capitalist?

Gu Qing must just be too concerned about his disciples.

Xia Ruanruan began to give Gu Qing, this 'ancient person,' all sorts of popular science about the benefits of communication jades, assuring Gu Qing that he could rest easy.

Xia Ruanruan: "Brother, Sister Chu has already ordered a batch of communication jades and plans to give one to all disciples. In the future, any tasks can be announced via communication jade, and resources can also be shared. There are so many benefits, brother, you can rest assured."

Gu Qing: "...I thank you."

He was not comforted at all.

However, as things stood, this was the only way.

After all, Gu Qing also knew that this matter had both good and bad aspects; it just depended on the fairies' subsequent situation.

If they all became addicted to communication jades, it wouldn't be too late for him to intervene then.
