753: It's better to have a dog than Chen Mo

Tsk, tsk, tsk!

Gu Qing smiled.

Chen Mo was looking at him, and he was also looking at Chen Mo.

With an indifferent yet somewhat disdainful gaze, such a dazzling protagonist was like a firefly in the dark; it was hard for Gu Qing not to notice him.

Furthermore, he and Starry Sacred Mother had both activated their shield domains, causing anyone who saw them to automatically ignore their existence.

Unless their cultivation was higher than the two of them, or they already knew him and Starry Sacred Mother.

Thinking this, Gu Qing transmitted his voice and asked, "Master, he wouldn't happen to be your disciple, would he?"

"Mm!" Starry Sacred Mother hummed, "He passed the formation test and became my registered disciple."

Gu Qing nodded slightly, thinking he seemed to be an unimportant disciple, so he could be killed.

His gaze swept up and down Chen Mo.

His appearance was quite good; unlike other short and ugly protagonists, Chen Mo was tall and straight, dressed in white, with a face like jade and a nose like a hanging gall, making his looks quite excellent.

His sword-like eyebrows slanted upwards, and his neither humble nor arrogant expression added a touch of persistence and steadfastness to his temperament.

"Master, can I kill him?" Gu Qing directly asked via voice transmission.

Given his relationship with Starry Sacred Mother, there was no need to hide anything.

As for why he wanted to kill Chen Mo.

It wasn't that Gu Qing couldn't tolerate Chen Mo, but rather that Chen Mo's 'transmigrator' vibe was too strong.

That indifferent demeanor, the sense of superiority emanating from his bones, and the gaze that seemed to view everyone as trash.

Without even checking Chen Mo's memories, Gu Qing could confirm that Chen Mo was a transmigrator, and an ego-centric type of protagonist at that.

When encountering such a protagonist, why not kill him? Should he be kept for the New Year?

"No!"

Starry Sacred Mother replied without hesitation, "It's better to be safe than sorry; you are currently undergoing tribulation, and it's not advisable to start killing, especially a Sky Dao's Chosen."

She paused, then added, "He possesses a Chaotic Sword Bone, which I have other uses for. However, it hasn't fully matured yet. Once the time is right, I will naturally kill him and seize his bone."

Gu Qing: "..."

Gu Qing looked at Starry Sacred Mother in astonishment.

He never expected that Starry Sacred Mother would also be someone who kills people and seizes bones.

The bones in the Xuanhuan world truly had a lot of misfortune.

Seeing this, how could Starry Sacred Mother not know what Gu Qing was thinking?

She transmitted her voice, annoyed, "He only received my inheritance, not my disciple."

"Chen Mo is a puppet cultivated by a Dao Monarch, also for the Chaotic Sword Bone within him."

"Speaking of which, the Chaotic Sword Bone within him and your Chaotic Divine Sword both came from the same person."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qing couldn't help but recall Lin Feng's Chaotic Divine Sword and Lin Feng's Sign-in System.

So, Lin Feng and Chen Mo were both puppets, tools, secretly manipulated by a Dao Monarch?

Just waiting for the right moment to take the Chaotic Divine Sword and fuse it with the Chaotic Sword Bone, then sacrifice their souls to refine an unparalleled treasure of slaughter.

Thinking of this, Gu Qing asked, "Master, do you know about systems?"

"I do!" Starry Sacred Mother was knowledgeable and had killed many Sky Dao's Chosen, so she was naturally familiar with systems.

"Then are all Sky Dao's Chosen who possess systems puppets of powerful individuals?" Gu Qing pressed.

"Not entirely. Some powerful individuals use systems only to cultivate successors, while others use systems to bind Sky Dao's Chosen, using them to nourish magical treasures, or to refine their souls into powerful artifact spirits."

"Or they cultivate them into a Dao Fruit identical to their own, and once matured, it's time to harvest the Dao Fruit..."

..."How unlucky." Xiao Hong also noticed Chen Mo at this moment, muttering 'how unlucky' before shifting her gaze, pretending not to see him.

That's right, she and Chen Mo also knew each other. At first, seeing Chen Mo's extraordinary talent, she had the idea of befriending him, providing him with a lot of information and helping him sell and buy some treasures.

However, Chen Mo was like an iron rooster, unwilling to part with a single feather. She had helped Chen Mo so much, but when she wanted to ask Chen Mo for a small favor, he demanded an exorbitant price, making her bleed a lot.

One must know, her information was worth thousands of innate spirit crystals, plus invitations to various trade fairs, which were priceless. Yet, she only received a thank you from Chen Mo.

Befriending a dog would be better than befriending Chen Mo.

Chen Mo stood in place, feeling a bit awkward, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes.

It wasn't that he didn't want to go forward and greet Starry Sacred Mother, but he had never seen Starry Sacred Mother's true form, only her Dao Will projections.

This was his first time seeing Starry Sacred Mother, and she was even more stunning than he had imagined.

Chen Mo originally thought that by breaking through to the twelfth layer of the Heavenly Human realm, his talent would amaze Starry Sacred Mother, and he would receive her attention, making her incredibly proud of him.

Who knew that Starry Sacred Mother seemed not to recognize him.

And Xiao Hong, who was beside them, didn't even spare him a glance, as if she didn't know him.

Chen Mo had his own pride and would naturally not rush to curry favor, but he couldn't just leave like this, could he?

Chen Mo hesitated, then stepped forward and bowed neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Disciple greets Master."

Starry Sacred Mother nodded slightly: "Since you have returned to the sect, focus on your cultivation."

She practically told him to leave directly.

Chen Mo heard Starry Sacred Mother's intention to dismiss him and immediately looked at her in surprise, as if in disbelief.

He had thought Starry Sacred Mother just hadn't recognized him for a moment, but now it seemed she hadn't recognized him as her disciple at all.

But he didn't understand.

He was a peerless prodigy with a Chaotic Sword Bone, sweeping all enemies aside, and he had only taken several hundred million years to cultivate to the complete twelfth layer of the Heavenly Human realm.

He had boundless prospects, with the potential to become a Master God, or even a Dao Monarch or Dao Master.

Shouldn't Starry Sacred Mother look at him with new eyes and then pour everything into cultivating him?

Why was she so cold to him?

"Ma... Master..."

Xiao Hong, who was nearby, heard this and her eyes instantly widened.

Chen Mo's Master, wasn't that Starry Sacred Mother?

And the 'big sucker second-generation' she had always thought of, wouldn't that be the hotly rumored Gu Qing?

What kind of luck did Xiao Hong have to encounter two legendary figures?

"What Master? Xiao Hong, when did you become my Master's disciple? Could it be that you've gone delusional?"

Gu Qing teased.

A light flashed in his eyes as he examined Xiao Hong's fate, destiny, and inner self, feeling a bit surprised.

This Xiao Hong really had something special.

Pretty, talented, and capable, and crucially, neither a female lead nor a villain.

Yet she possessed great fortune and the potential to achieve the Heavenly Human Dao.

Xiao Hong's face twitched upon hearing this.

She had always regarded Gu Qing as a role model, an idol.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that Gu Qing, who was rumored to be like a myth in the outside world, was actually this kind of person.

Gu Qing's immensely grand image in her heart instantly crumbled.

"Yes, yes, yes, I, Xiao Hong, have a terribly severe delusion, dreaming of becoming Senior Starry's disciple."

Xiao Hong nodded repeatedly, her voice trembling, with a hint of hope in her tone.

What if... what if Starry Sacred Mother, in a moment of happiness, took her as a disciple? Then she would soar to the sky.

"Then you should continue dreaming, continue having delusions," Gu Qing said with a smile.

Xiao Hong: "..."

Idol, go to hell.

However much she had admired Gu Qing before, that's how much she wanted to beat him to death now.

At this moment, Xiao Hong was incredibly frustrated, her mental state completely broken.

"Don't be silly."

Starry Sacred Mother smiled faintly: "Xiao Hong has extraordinary talent and a commendable character; she will surely have a great fortune in the future."

Xiao Hong's spirit was invigorated, her eyes bursting with brilliant light, her delicate body trembling with excitement, and her gloomy mood instantly swept away.

After all, this was Starry Sacred Mother's prophecy; her future was surely bright.

"Don't just stand there, take us to the best restaurant in Wanxing City."

The more Gu Qing looked at Xiao Hong, the more pleasing she became; her changing expressions were so entertaining, like a human emoji package.

"Oh, oh, oh!"

Xiao Hong nodded repeatedly: "Seniors, please follow me."

Having said that, she ignored Chen Mo and led the two to the top restaurant in Wanxing City, thinking that no matter what, she had to pay for this meal.

Chen Mo: "..."

He watched blankly as the three passed by him, only coming back to his senses after a long while.

Chen Mo's face was as ugly as if he had eaten a dead rat.

It was fine that Xiao Hong ignored him.

Ever since their last falling out, he had seen Xiao Hong's true colors: nothing more than a selfish and greedy woman.

She had gone to great lengths to befriend him, only wanting to gain greater returns from him.

But he was no fool; Xiao Hong wanted to scheme against him, but there was no way. He had always been the one to scheme against others.

He wasn't surprised at all that Xiao Hong, unable to gain any advantage from him, would ignore him.

But why did Starry Sacred Mother also ignore him?

Did Starry Sacred Mother never consider him a disciple from beginning to end?

But if she didn't consider him a disciple, why did she take him in the first place?

What was the difference between this and giving birth but not raising?

Wasn't this misleading students?

The more Chen Mo thought, the more irritated he became. The joy of seeing Starry Sacred Mother instantly vanished without a trace, leaving only unwillingness and resentment.

He had always regarded Starry Sacred Mother as his Master, but Starry Sacred Mother was simply unfit to be a teacher.

"Heh, I never thought that Starry Sacred Mother, like a legend, would be this kind of person." Chen Mo's lips curved into a self-mocking smile.

Since Starry Sacred Mother didn't treat him as a disciple, he naturally wouldn't treat her as his Master anymore.

He had transmigrated from Earth, having been baptized by the information explosion, and did not possess the rigid worldview of the Xuanhuan world natives.

As for 'once a teacher, always a teacher,' that also depended on whether Starry Sacred Mother was worthy.

His current achievements were all due to his own hard work and talent.

Without Starry Sacred Mother's help, he could still become an supreme expert.

When he broke through to Master God, or even higher realms, he wondered if Starry Sacred Mother would regret abandoning him as a disciple.
