557: Are you a man or a woman?

"Rebellious Disciple, don't make up stories that are too outrageous." Zhimeng transmitted her voice, gritting her teeth.

Jiang Yu was her lifelong enemy.

Hearing Gu Qing portray Jiang Yu as so supreme, she felt sour.

Even more unacceptable was the idea that Gu Qing's Creation Azure Lotus and Chaos Undying Halberd were obtained by Gu Qing begging Jiang Yu.

Gu Qing was her disciple, how could he boost someone else's prestige?

She still bore the title of the Peerless Dual Prodigies.

"It's just a means to deceive the enemy, Revered Master, there's no need to take it seriously." Gu Qing heard this and transmitted his voice to comfort her.

"Hmph, forget it, do whatever you want with your fabrications. Sooner or later, I will trample Jiang Yu underfoot." Zhimeng's tone was resolute.

To break the situation, she endured it.

"Mhm, Revered Master, go for it!" Gu Qing encouraged her.

His Revered Master, who was always strong, a woman like an eagle, indeed could not lose.

"Splendid, Fellow Daoist Wuliang's twisted love story is truly splendid."

God Emperor Wuwang's voice came from the mountaintop.

Before his voice faded, the four figures had already appeared in the lecture hall. God Emperor Wuwang's eyes deepened.

Wuwang Mountain was his Dao field, but now Gu Qing occupied the main seat, making him seem like a guest.

"It's good if it can bring a smile to everyone!"

Gu Qing did not argue with him about the truth, smiling indifferently.

He had finished his story; whether they believed it or not was entirely up to them.

Gu Qing's gaze swept over Ye Tian, feeling inwardly puzzled. Gu Qing wouldn't be surprised no matter who Ye Tian associated with.

But Ye Tian's Foundation was completely destroyed, and his Realm had fallen to Profound God.

Moreover, Ye Tian seemed very afraid of Wu Tianyu.

This was very strange.

After all, the protagonist had the Luck to turn misfortune into good fortune and an unyielding personality.

His main motto was to view life and death lightly, if he was unhappy, he would fight, challenging everything under the heavens.

"Fellow Daoist Wuliang, what a clever scheme. A few simple words defused the crisis."

Wu Tianyu smiled radiantly, breathtakingly beautiful. Her aura was ethereal, sacred, and otherworldly, like a Fairy untainted by dust.

"Not at all!"

Gu Qing collected his thoughts, shook his head slightly, and scrutinized Wu Tianyu from head to toe, becoming more and more confused the more he looked.

Wu Tianyu was simply too flawlessly beautiful.

Her figure was graceful and curvaceous, with a slender waist that could be encompassed by a single hand.

Her skin was fair and delicate, radiating an alluring luster.

Wu Tianyu possessed a transcendent, sacred beauty, no less than any woman he had ever seen.

And, judging from her aura, Wu Tianyu was female.

But wasn't Wu Tianyu rumored to be male?

Could it be a gender-bending pervert?

"It's just that I'm very curious, if she is so invincible, why does Fellow Daoist need to be so wary of us?"

Wu Tianyu's voice was cool and indifferent, her beautiful eyes shimmering with a hint of curiosity and inquiry.

Seeing her display such feminine charm, Gu Qing felt his stomach churn. He steadied his mind and calmly said, "She left my side, and I am also looking for her."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes flickered, their expressions varied.

"Oh, then does she have any trump cards left for you?" Wu Tianyu continued to ask.

"None!" Gu Qing smiled and shook his head.

"Fellow Daoist is truly an honest gentleman." Wu Tianyu praised.

"I, Gu, have accumulated good deeds throughout my life, my heart is inclined towards light, and I am honest and trustworthy. I am by no means undeserving of my reputation." Gu Qing said earnestly.

"Hahaha!"

Wu Tianyu laughed. It was interesting to talk to smart people.

It was even more interesting to talk to shameless people.

Ye Tian looked at Gu Qing with an excited expression.

He... finally saw Gu Qing again.

Although he really wanted to apprentice under Jiang Yu, he could only think about it, as he didn't know where Jiang Yu was.

Nor did he know when Jiang Yu would appear.

He didn't want to stay by Wu Tianyu's side for another moment.

So, the question was, what method should he use to make Gu Qing look at him with new eyes and then accept him as a disciple?

Ye Tian's fervent heart instantly calmed down, and his mind quickly pondered.

"Can the Dao discussion begin?"

Gu Qing asked.

"Yes!" God Emperor Wuwang pondered for a moment and nodded.

In truth, not everyone had arrived. He used his Divine Thought to sense, but couldn't detect the aura of his old friends. These old fogeys were probably still in seclusion, not wanting to get involved.

"Good!"

"Let's start with the trade."

Gu Qing directly took over, pulling out a long sword, a Medium Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, and looked at Wu Tianyu, saying,

"I want to exchange it for the Myriad Worlds Pearl."

"Not enough!"

Wu Tianyu smiled and shook her head: "Fellow Daoist doesn't know that the Myriad Worlds Pearl itself is a Medium Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, does he? It was melted into several Innate Spirit Treasures by the Ancestral Master and refined for countless years. In terms of power, defense, and function, it's no worse than any High Grade Innate Spirit Treasure."

"Is it that powerful?" Gu Qing was astonished.

He only knew that the Myriad Worlds Pearl was a powerful Magic Treasure refined by the Star Mother, but he truly didn't know its specific origin.

"You wouldn't be making things up, would you? If the Myriad Worlds Pearl were truly as you say, how could it have fallen into your hands?" Gu Qing sneered.

The Star God Sect in ancient times had existences at the Immortal Emperor Sixth Realm, and more than one at that.

The Heavenly Star before him was one of them.

"Why not possible?"

Wu Tianyu smiled: "Back then, they were preparing to enter the Boundless Divine Mountain, leaving us four to guard the Sect."

"The reason the Star God Sect disintegrated and the Star Heaven split was because I stole the Myriad Worlds Pearl and broke the Formation."

"However, it's a pity that after I succeeded, I was caught red-handed by the other three."

Speaking of this, a hint of disdain flashed in Wu Tianyu's beautiful eyes, and she continued to explain.

"In fact, they wanted to use me to steal the Myriad Worlds Pearl, hoping to reap the benefits and snatch it away, so they all pretended to be blind."

"However, they overestimated themselves. I simply turned their scheme against them, secretly replacing it with a Clone, at the cost of one Clone, to take away the Myriad Worlds Pearl."

Heavenly Star's face was grim, and murderous intent appeared in her eyes.

Wu Tianyu had fooled all of them back then.

She had long ago refined a Myriad Worlds Pearl and then inscribed it with a Great Dao Restriction, making it difficult for people to distinguish between true and false.

After Wu Tianyu's Clone died, the other few went mad with killing in their struggle for the Myriad Worlds Pearl.

They all wanted to snatch the Myriad Worlds Pearl, go into hiding, and become supreme powerhouses in one fell swoop.

"You wouldn't have been plotting to seize the Myriad Worlds Pearl from the very beginning, would you?"

Gu Qing finished listening, pondered for a moment, and suspected that Wu Tianyu had joined the Star God Sect specifically for the Myriad Worlds Pearl.

Wu Tianyu's Clone was probably intended to be sacrificed from the start.

"Smart!"

Wu Tianyu was startled, then excitedly replied.

Her beautiful eyes were shimmering with water, as if she had found a kindred spirit.

Gu Qing was truly too clever.

With just a few words from her, he had guessed the truth.

How laughable those fools were; after so many years, they still hadn't guessed it. They were truly utterly stupid, and deserved to be trampled under her feet.

"Wu Tianyu."

Heavenly Star's eyes were cold, her voice filled with terrifying murderous intent, causing the spatial Restriction and the world to be filled with a chilling 肅殺 ( 肅殺 - 肅 means solemn, kill - a chilling atmosphere).

This madman truly set up a brilliant scheme.

First, she gave them false information, sending away all the Immortal Emperors of the Triple Realm.

Then, she made them all steal from themselves, practically making them run around in circles.

If it weren't for the upcoming cooperation with Wu Tianyu, Heavenly Star would definitely have fought him.

"They say Immortal Emperor Tianyu is exceptionally talented and brilliant. I didn't believe it before, I thought I was better than you, but now it seems I am not as good as you."

Gu Qing was silent for a moment, then said.

"Oh? Is Fellow Daoist being overly modest?" Wu Tianyu was startled, her red lips curving slightly, watching Gu Qing with interest.

"Absolutely not being overly modest."

Gu Qing shook his head: "If it were me, I simply couldn't be as excellent as you. My achievements today are entirely due to riding on coattails."

Upon hearing this, Wu Tianyu's beautiful eyes grew even brighter.

A kindred spirit.

This was the kindred spirit she had been searching for all along.

Wu Tianyu said seriously: "Riding on coattails is also a great wisdom. Although you are not as clever as I am, you are definitely wiser than me."

"I have experienced countless Reincarnations and seen too many beings cleverer than me, but they all ultimately died. Do you know why? Because they lacked wisdom."

"They were self-righteous, self-centered, believing they controlled the general trend of Heaven and Earth, controlled the life and death of all spirits. In reality, they couldn't even control where they would be buried."

"Just like this idiot."

Wu Tianyu pointed at Ye Tian, her eyes full of contempt: "He thinks he's supremely clever, always using petty tricks, conceited and self-centered. However, without great Luck, such a waste wouldn't even be able to feed himself and would sooner or later be beaten to death."

Ye Tian's face instantly flushed red, feeling immense humiliation, and his murderous intent surged.

Too much bullying.

Since his debut, Ye Tian had schemed against countless people. Even old monsters of many years could not escape his calculations and were killed by him.

He was a peerless Prodigy with both wisdom and talent.

Yet, in Wu Tianyu's eyes, he had become a useless good-for-nothing?

Simply too much bullying!

Ye Tian had never hated a person as much as he did now. If his strength allowed, he would have killed Wu Tianyu at all costs.

Ye Tian lowered his head in humiliation.

There was no other way; Wu Tianyu's oppressive power was too great, and he didn't want to be tortured anymore.

"You..."

Gu Qing's expression was surprised. He never expected Wu Tianyu to see through the protagonist so thoroughly.

It seemed Ye Tian had fallen into Wu Tianyu's hands.

Gu Qing immediately checked Wu Tianyu's fate.

Good heavens... she was a world-destroying, Heaven-mandated great villain.

A villain actually rubbing the protagonist into the ground, Gu Qing found this world somewhat incomprehensible.

"Are you surprised that I wasn't affected by his Luck?" Wu Tianyu seemed to read Gu Qing's thoughts, a smile appearing on her face, and she said indifferently: "As long as one's Dao Heart is firm, one will not be troubled by external things."

"A mere darling of the Heavenly Dao is nothing but an ant."

"Makes sense." Gu Qing echoed.

He looked at Wu Tianyu with appreciation.

Oh no, the more he looked at Wu Tianyu, the more pleasing she became.

Gu Qing quickly dispelled this terrifying thought and asked curiously, "So, are you male or female after all?"

Since the one who remained in the Star God Sect was a Clone, Wu Tianyu's gender was highly worth investigating.
