732: Don't go crazy

“Shameless…”

Starry Sacred Mother, hidden in the dark, spat softly.

Everyone in the main hall had an unreadable expression.

Alright, they admitted, Gu Qing had successfully put on a show.

“Hehe, Sect Master, what’s a ‘Zhuangyuan’ and what’s a ‘Tanhualang’?”

Qi Tian asked with a giggle, his eyes full of curiosity.

He was born a Divine Emperor, had never even attended school, spending his days picking fruits and catching birds in the mountains, fishing for shrimp in the rivers, swinging and playing hide-and-seek with his mother.

He truly hadn’t encountered human civilization.

“That’s a long story, but in short, a Zhuangyuan is a Zhuangyuan, and a Tanhualang is a Tanhualang.”

Gu Qing said with a straight face.

“Oh, so a Zhuangyuan is a Zhuangyuan, and a Tanhualang is a Tanhualang.” Qi Tian suddenly understood and said happily.

Qi Ruilin’s mouth twitched.

Indeed, even with his culture, the Sect Master was still that mischievous Sect Master.

“Xiao Houzi, are you willing to take me as your master?” Gu Qing asked.

Xiao Houzi’s eyes darted, looking at his mother.

Qi Ruilin had told him he absolutely couldn’t randomly take someone as a master.

Seeing Qi Ruilin nod frantically, Qi Tian’s eyes spun even faster, and he said, “I can take you as my master, but what treasures will you give me?”

“You little monkey!” Gu Qing chuckled, a thought flashing through his mind, and he took out a large pile of Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, as well as Dao artifacts from seventh to ninth rank.

Some of these magic treasures he had found, some belonged to others, and some he had stolen from others.

There were several thousand in total, and many more Gu Qing hadn't taken out.

Besides the magic treasures in his hand, the Boundless Chaotic World was currently gestating countless Innate Spirit Treasures, and nine innate treasures.

So Gu Qing was not at all short of magic treasures, and he could certainly give a few to Xiao Houzi.

“All for me?”

Xiao Houzi immediately stopped swaying, his golden eyes bursting with brilliant light.

“Hmph?” Fang Jixuan’s breathing quickened.

“You can only pick one.” Gu Qing said with a smile.

“No, I want them all.”

“Then I won’t give you any.”

“I want half? A thousand? A hundred? Ten… three~”

After a heated negotiation, Qi Tian acquired three Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.

A chainmail, a long staff, and a large cauldron.

“Enough.”

Seeing Gu Qing about to say more, Ziwei Emperor suppressed his anger and forced a smile: “Junior Brother…”

He swore to the heavens that all the patience he had in his life had been used up waiting for Gu Qing.

Since birth, no one had ever treated him with such disrespect.

“Calling me Junior Brother is useless, Master just broke through to Dao Lord and is currently in seclusion to stabilize her realm.”

Gu Qing smiled indifferently.

Then why the hell didn't you say so earlier?

The temples of a dozen people throbbed, and anger flared in their eyes.

A whole hundred years, wasted kneeling.

If it were on a mortal, a hundred years would be enough for a newborn baby to have three generations of children and then be laid to rest.

Fortunately, they were Celestials, possessing endless lifespans and strong mental fortitude.

“Let’s go!”

Everyone’s faces were grim as they flicked their sleeves and left, though they didn’t doubt the truth of Gu Qing’s words.

After all, Starry Sacred Mother had indeed just broken through to Dao Lord, her realm unstable, and continuing her seclusion to consolidate her realm and comprehend the mysteries of the Dao Lord realm was reasonable.

“Master, do I look good?”

Xiao Houzi Qi Tian put on the chainmail and showed off in front of Gu Qing, wielding the Hunyuan Yiqi Staff with fierce power.

Gu Qing stroked his chin and said without hesitation, “You look good. If you can perform eating and drinking upside down for your master, it would look even better.”

“Ah…” Xiao Houzi’s movements paused, dumbfounded.

Qi Ruilin: “…”

A bad premonition arose spontaneously.

What was this feeling that letting her son take Gu Qing as his master was not a wise move?

Fang Jixuan didn’t know why, but he felt that not getting Gu Qing’s favor seemed to be a great thing.

He certainly didn’t want to eat and drink upside down.

“Sect Master, my child’s intelligence has just awakened. I’ve enrolled him in school, and now he’s going to be late. I’ll take my leave.”

Qi Ruilin hugged Xiao Houzi and fled like the wind.

“Heh!” Gu Qing chuckled, his gaze shifting to Fang Jixuan: “Not leaving yet?”

Fang Jixuan: “…”

He hadn’t received any treasures yet, why would he leave?

No, Gu Qing told him to break through, was he really not going to give him anything?

Did Gu Qing also think he was a good-for-nothing and look down on him?

Fang Jixuan hesitated for a moment, then left unwillingly. As hot as his heart was when he arrived, so cold and disappointed it was now.

Returning to his own cave dwelling, Fang Jixuan looked up at the brightest star among the stars.

This star seemed like an Emperor Star, surrounded by other stars, radiating endless divine and sacred light, its divine might awe-inspiring, inspiring reverence.

This star was Starry Sacred Mother’s personal refined cave dwelling, containing the myriad phenomena of the universe.

“So similar…”

Starry Sacred Mother and Gu Qing were like this Emperor Star, looking down on all heroes and surveying all beings.

Recalling Gu Qing’s arrogant and disdainful expression, Fang Jixuan’s mouth curved into a self-mocking smile, his hands clenched tightly, nails digging deep into his palms.

“If you look down on me, why bother taking me as a disciple?”

“Shut up!”

Dan Lao sternly reprimanded: “The divine abilities of Celestials are unfathomable. Don’t spout nonsense if you don’t want to die.”

Fang Jixuan gave a bitter smile: “Dan Lao, don’t you see? Master doesn’t treat me as a disciple at all. After a hundred years, he can justifiably expel me from the sect.”

“Perhaps taking me as a disciple was just to prevent Hongluan and the other two from being held accountable.”

Dan Lao: “…”

How much nerve do you have?

Gu Qing didn’t even give face to Celestials, trampling their dignity underfoot.

Fang Jixuan actually thought Gu Qing took him as a disciple because he was afraid of being criticized???

What a ridiculous joke.

Dan Lao took a deep breath and angrily said, “Idiot, just because you can’t do it, doesn’t mean others can’t. Your Master can do it.”

“Your Master only took ten thousand years to break through to Celestial, and then a few hundred years to break through to the eleventh realm. Is it too harsh to ask you to break through two realms in a hundred years?”

Fang Jixuan’s breathing hitched.

This… it really wasn’t harsh.

After all, Celestials were not comparable to Divine Emperors.

The difference was like the speed of breakthrough between the mortal realm and the transcendent realm.

But… he really couldn’t do it.

“The Sect Master has commanded you to immediately go out and gain experience.”

Xing Rong suddenly appeared, his expression indifferent, though if one looked closely, one could see the mockery deep in his eyes… “Master is emotionless and ruthless, what should we do?”

In the Ziwei Emperor Palace, the atmosphere was oppressive and grim.

A dozen Celestials had faces as dark as water.

With their talent, if Starry Sacred Mother didn't help them, they would never be able to break through to Chaos Dominator God in this life.

“Perhaps I can help you Senior Brothers.”

A ethereal voice echoed in the hall, and a figure in white, as pure as snow, seemed to stroll from the end of the universe, her aura ethereal and transcendent, like an immortal banished from heaven.

“Yun Youzi…”

Everyone’s expressions changed.

“Senior Brother, long time no see, are you well?”

Yun Youzi, dressed in a plain white Daoist robe, had a handsome and refined appearance, and an extraordinary, transcendent temperament.

He smiled at the corners of his lips, showing no airs of a Master God, and cupped his fists in a salute to the four.

“We wouldn’t dare accept. We are mere Celestials, how can we accept a Master God’s salute? Besides, you are no longer our Junior Brother.”

That’s right, Yun Youzi was Starry Sacred Mother’s youngest direct disciple, but because he resonated with Gu Jun’s Dao, he switched to Gu Jun.

The junior brother who joined latest, now achieved the Dao of Master God earlier than all of them.

Everyone’s envy was evident, and they couldn’t help but regret. If they had also defected to Gu Jun, Ni Xiao, or Tian Xu back then, perhaps they too could have achieved the Dao of Master God.

At the very least, with a Master God guiding them, they wouldn’t be trapped in the Celestial illusion, unable to find any direction.
