935: Zhimeng's reluctance

Gu Qing used a secret technique to sense Zhi Meng's location and quickly found Zhi Meng.

At his current realm, no distance was too far; where his heart desired, his Dao would reach, and the ends of the earth were within arm's reach.

With a thought, Gu Qing instantly appeared before Zhi Meng, seeing their gloomy faces, he knew without asking what it was about.

Gu Qing suddenly regretted coming to find Zhi Meng.

"Disciple, tell me, what exactly is Jiang Yu's background, and where is she? Don't try to fool your master again."

Even if Zhi Meng were foolish, she would know that Jiang Yu was definitely extraordinary, and she wasn't foolish.

At her current realm, even if Jiang Yu was a Dao Lord, she would be able to find a trace.

However, no matter what secret technique she used, she found no trace of Jiang Yu, as if Jiang Yu had never existed in the world.

This already explained a lot.

Zhi Meng, recalling past events, strongly suspected that Gu Qing knew Jiang Yu's background, and had known for a long time.

Perhaps he had known since they were in the Archaic Starfield.

Otherwise, with Gu Qing's lecherous nature, why would he repeatedly refuse her suggestions?

Therefore, she had sufficient reason to suspect that Gu Qing had always known Jiang Yu's background and origins, and it was possible that she was hidden in Gu Qing's spatial artifact.

"Master, I really don't know. If you don't believe me, look."

To prove his innocence, Gu Qing took out the Hongmeng Creation Tower and the Hongmeng Immeasurable Tower.

Zhi Meng trusted Gu Qing greatly, but in order to find Jiang Yu, she couldn't care less about that.

Her divine sense swept through the space of the two treasure towers, not letting go of any clue.

After silently deducing for a while and confirming that Jiang Yu had never entered the two treasure towers, her curved willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed.

Zhi Meng stared at Gu Qing with suspicious eyes: "Do you have any other spatial artifacts?"

"No."

Gu Qing shook his head, looking like a good boy. Seeing that Zhi Meng still didn't believe him, Gu Qing grinned and wrapped his arm around her slender waist.

Her sensitive waist was attacked, and Zhi Meng suddenly felt a soft weakness, but in order to find Jiang Yu, she coldly said in a deep voice: "Then tell me her background and origins."

"How would I know something that Master doesn't know? At that time, I was just a young man who had just embarked on the path of cultivation, and I didn't understand anything."

In any case, he would never admit it, even if it killed him.

After all, he had been deceiving Zhi Meng for so many years; if he suddenly told her, Zhi Meng might go crazy.

Moreover, Jiang Yu had also warned him that he must not say anything, no matter what.

Gu Qing was someone who listened to advice.

There was no other way; what a super big shot said was always right.

Jiang Yu naturally had her reasons for doing this.

Didn't Zhi Meng cultivate desperately just to catch up with Jiang Yu?

Without Jiang Yu as a comparison, Zhi Meng's growth would probably have been halved.

"Could I have guessed wrong..."

Listening to Gu Qing's analysis, Zhi Meng became uncertain.

"Master must have misunderstood me," Gu Qing said very confidently.

"You... glib-tongued," Zhi Meng hit his arm and reprimanded, "Be serious with me; your master is discussing important matters with you."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qing knew he had once again bluffed his way through. To prevent Zhi Meng from becoming suspicious again, Gu Qing immediately picked Zhi Meng up, his hands supporting her bottom.

"How am I not serious?"

"Rebellious disciple, quickly put your master down."

Zhi Meng was flustered, her hands pressed against Gu Qing's chest.

She had been hugged and kissed by Gu Qing, but never embraced in such an intimate way.

"No, I am Master's, and Master is mine."

"?"

Zhi Meng steadied her heartbeat, knowing she couldn't out-argue Gu Qing. Looking at Gu Qing's incomparably handsome face, she murmured, "Jiang Yu, where exactly are you..."

How wonderful it would be if Jiang Yu were already under her feet.

Gu Qing: "..."

This pair of lovers who both loved and killed each other was hard to judge.

"Master, can't I really put you down?" Gu Qing hesitated to speak.

"No."

Having been suppressed by Jiang Yu her entire life, if she couldn't find Jiang Yu, she would die unwillingly.

If she couldn't let Jiang Yu see her glory, couldn't see Jiang Yu bow her head and admit her mistakes to her, then what did all her years of effort count for?

She must make Jiang Yu admit that she was inferior to her, and make Jiang Yu regret.

"Master, let's go to the Archaic Starfield to take a look. I'm quite curious about the places Master has trained in. Can Master take me to see them?"

Seeing Zhi Meng so resolute, fearing she had become obsessed to the point of madness, Gu Qing found it difficult to persuade her further.

Instead of talking more, it was better to take Zhi Meng to relax. Perhaps with time, Zhi Meng would let go herself.

People always need a little hope.

"Disciple, doesn't this count as revisiting the campus?"

Zhi Meng came to the secret realm where she had once trained. She had killed many people in this secret realm and had also been pursued by many.

Looking at the surrounding scenery, things were no longer the same.

Zhi Meng's eyes showed a look of recollection, her heart both joyful and inexplicably melancholic.

"Huh? Revisiting the campus?" Gu Qing was bewildered.

"Did you forget Lin Xuan's memories?"

"Oh, oh, I didn't forget. This indeed counts as a campus of the Immortal Realm. After all, Master trained here, and the Archaic Starfield is Master's cradle of growth."

"Mm!" Zhi Meng softly hummed, allowing her disciple to hold her hand as they strolled through the places Zhi Meng had once trod.

A few years later, Zhi Meng's mood was clearly much better, her brows carrying a hint of tenderness... "Rou'er, you go to the Boundless Divine Sect. I still have things to do."

Arriving at the Origin Continent, Gu Qing simply handed the Hongmeng Immeasurable Tower to Luo Rou, as there were still many people cultivating inside, and it was inconvenient for him to carry it.

"Mm, when will you be back?" Luo Rou didn't dare to look at Zhi Meng, her eyes darting away, speaking weakly.

"As long as you miss me, I will return, even if I am at the ends of the earth," Gu Qing said with a smile.

Luo Rou's fair face flushed visibly, and after saying "I'll wait for you to come back," she shyly ran off.

"Haha."

"Don't bully my sister," Zhi Meng said sternly.

Gu Qing's smile faltered, then he mischievously said, "What does Master know? Perhaps Rou'er is willing to let me bully her?"

"Nonsense."

Although her sister was a bit foolish, she was indeed a well-bred lady. She had been raised as a well-bred lady since childhood, being the legitimate daughter after all.

Luo Rou wasn't a pervert, so how could she be willing to be bullied?

"Alright." Seeing that Zhi Meng hadn't understood his meaning, Gu Qing suddenly felt bored.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Master, I'm going to cultivate in the Boundless Chaos. Please take care."

"Go!"

Zhi Meng also needed to refine the Heavenly Abyss. Once her cultivation advanced further, or she broke through to Dao Ancestor, she wouldn't believe she still couldn't find Jiang Yu.

As soon as the two parted, Gu Qing entered the Boundless Chaos and called out Youmeng.

Contemplation methods were different from cultivation techniques and Dao scriptures; contemplation methods could be guided and assisted in cultivation.

With Youmeng's help, it would be easier for him to comprehend and enter the gate, and to search for the All Heavens Myriad Realms.

The two sat cross-legged on the Great Dao Golden Lotus. Youmeng separated a wisp of Dao thought to assist Gu Qing in entering the state of contemplating the heavens, guiding Gu Qing to search for the Heavenly Realms.

Youmeng's true form, under the cleansing of the Great Dao Golden Lotus, quickly entered a state of enlightenment.

Gu Qing observed the Myriad Daos of the Heavens, observed endless civilizations, and the Chaos Unmeasurable Dao Fruit rapidly evolved, perfecting the Boundless Dao.
