Chapter 270 Am I really that charming?
Chapter 270 Am I really that charming?
Am I really that charming?
Hearing Chu Yao's words, Gu Qing murmured.
Although I don't know Xi Ling, as the daughter of an invincible immortal king and the goddess of the Taiyin Sect, Xi Ling is definitely not an ordinary prodigy.
He had never even met the person, or perhaps he had, but didn't recognize them.
Yet, he hadn't done anything yet, and Xi Ling had already fallen for him?
Why does it feel so unreal?
Gu Qing frowned, thinking that perhaps Chu Yao had misunderstood.
Xi Ling might just be interested in his strength, or perhaps she just wants to exchange some Taoist techniques and supernatural abilities; she doesn't actually like him at all.
"You."
Seeing Gu Qing's confused expression, Chu Yao chuckled and poked his forehead.
Others have a mysterious self-confidence, but Gu Qing is handsome without even realizing it.
Just wait and see. Once Gu Qing's deeds are fully publicized, even more vixens will flock to him.
In the pursuit of immortality, it's rare for a man to appear who has astonished the immortal realm. Perhaps even some female cultivators who have cultivated for years will feel restless and their hearts will stir.
After all, women also appreciate beauty; food and sex are basic human needs, this is a fundamental truth.
Thinking about it, Chu Yao asked sourly, "Should we try to win over Xi Ling?"
"Need not."
Gu Qing shook his head, then revealed that Chu Yao had the protection of a Celestial King, so she didn't need to worry.
Upon hearing that a Celestial King was protecting her, Chu Yao was overjoyed, and her excited face flushed red.
He never mentioned the matter of finding women again.
Gu Qing held her slender waist tightly, and his long legs wrapped around her.
Chu Yao's eyes were alluring as she whispered, "They have gatherings to exchange information, discuss Taoist techniques and supernatural powers, or form alliances to seize treasures together. Do you want to join?"
"Don't go."
Gatherings and the like are bound to be places of gossip and trouble.
Given their situation, there will definitely be people who mock or test them.
Gu Qing is emotionally fragile and cannot bear being scolded for no reason. Even if she eventually gets her revenge, her good mood for the day is completely ruined.
Besides, Gu Qing still needs to refine the Creation Azure Lotus Cauldron; he doesn't have time to play house.
Chu Yao pleaded with him for a while, but seeing that Gu Qing was determined not to go out, she said helplessly, "Fine, if you don't show up, then the Holy Son of Yao Guang will have to benefit."
"...What does this have to do with the Holy Son of Yaoguang?"
"Of course there is a connection. In the Primordial Starfield, the Holy Son of Yao Guang is known as the Light of the Righteous Path and is ranked alongside Xi Ling Xing Yue as the leader of the younger generation. If you don't appear, the geniuses can only follow the lead of these three."
"Moreover, if those geniuses gain anything from discussing Taoist techniques and supernatural powers, they will definitely remember this kindness."
Chu Yao explained.
She had heard the Holy Son of Yaoguang preach; his Taoist magic and supernatural powers were unfathomable, and his reputation as the leader of the contemporary era was well-deserved.
But that was before. Now that Gu Qing has arrived, the Holy Son of Yao Guang can only stand aside.
After Chu Yao, that troublesome little devil, left, Gu Qing immediately entered the Ruyi Space to refine the Creation Green Lotus Cauldron.
With the aid of the Dao Eye, divine sense invaded and refined the divine runes of the Creation Azure Lotus Cauldron.
……
Inside the Starlight Tower, dressed in white, the Holy Son of Yaoguang gazed indifferently at the boundless starry sky.
His brows furrowed involuntarily, and a sense of foreboding rose within him.
"Who exactly is plotting against me?" Yao Guang Shengzi wondered uneasily.
He frowned, wondering if he had offended someone recently.
I thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out.
Because he is very low-key, always kind to others, and never makes enemies.
Even if they become enemies, he will kill them on the same day they become enemies.
"Could it be that the Ancient Starfield lineage is plotting against me? Trying to make Gu Qing rise to power by stepping on me?"
After much thought, the Holy Son of Yaoguang could only think of this possibility, and his furrowed brows gradually relaxed.
If it's from the Ancient Starfield lineage, things will be much easier.
A group of grasshoppers in autumn won't be able to hop around for more than a few days.
"Holy Son, both the Goddess Xiling and the Holy Maiden Xingyue are interested in Gu Qing. Should we do something about it?"
The Grand Elder asked with a solemn expression.
Both of them were at the peak of the Celestial God Realm, possessing unparalleled talent and extraordinary backgrounds.
Moreover, both of them have extraordinary backgrounds.
Xi Ling has an invincible Immortal King father, making her background unparalleled.
Their Starry Sky Dao Sect also spent a huge amount of money, offering some Immortal Emperor Dao Scriptures, before they could persuade Immortal King He Guang to agree to the marriage.
Xingyue is no less impressive. Although she is not the daughter of a Celestial King, she has a master at the peak of the Profound God realm in the Starry Sky Dao Sect.
In addition, there are three Mystic Gods in the Star and Moon lineage.
She can be considered the most noble goddess in the Starry Sky Dao Sect.
They also tried to bring the two together, hoping that the Holy Son of Yaoguang would have two women on his left and right, making his path to the Great Dao smoother.
No matter how much they tried to bring them together, Xingyue and Xiling didn't seem to fall for him, maintaining a lukewarm attitude towards the Holy Son of Yaoguang.
“Gu Qing…”
Upon hearing this, the usually indifferent Holy Son of Yaoguang looked rather grim.
He may not care about anything else, but his junior sisters Xingyue and Xiling are the love of his life. He has long regarded them as his own and will never allow anyone to touch them.
The scene from just now involuntarily surfaced in the mind of the Holy Son of Yaoguang.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that the cold and ruthless Xingyue could actually show such girlish shyness.
Although she looked absolutely stunning then, even more so than when she was cold and aloof.
But the object of his affections was not him.
And Xi Ling.
She is noble and arrogant, regarding all men as pigs and dogs.
He only showed kindness to Gu Qing repeatedly.
The more Yao Guang Shengzi thought about it, the uglier his face became, as if a green meadow was spreading across his head.
Gu Qing hadn't done anything yet, but he had already won the hearts of two women. If they were to spend time with Gu Qing...
The Holy Son of Yaoguang shook his head frantically, not daring to think any further, and said coldly, "He's just a dying man, no need to pay him any mind."
Several of the true disciples of the sequence were given a death order, and were given powerful weapons. Once Gu Qing entered the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm, he would surely die.
If he also targets Gu Qing, it might offend Xingyue and Xiling.
Furthermore, if even several master disciples of the Sequence cannot defeat Gu Qing, then his intervention will be futile.
“The Holy Son’s words are reasonable.”
The elder pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Both women were proud and ruthless, and they hated anyone interfering with them.
But doing nothing isn't a solution either.
Are we just going to stand by and watch Xingyue Xiling and Gu Qing exchange affections from afar?
Thinking of this, the Grand Elder glanced at the aloof and indifferent Holy Son of Yao Guang, and a sense of frustration rose in his heart.
The Holy Son of Yaoguang has an extraordinary background, is humble and gentle, has a deep and shrewd mind, and is also incredibly handsome.
Why do Xingyue and Xiling not find such a perfect prodigy attractive?
He couldn't understand it, he just couldn't figure out what women were thinking.
"Elder, there's no need to worry. Gu Qing is indeed outstanding, and it's normal for Junior Sister Xingyue and Junior Sister Xiling to be attracted to him for a while."
"But one day, they will understand that I am the most suitable Daoist partner for them."
The Holy Son of Yaoguang smiled calmly, his expression confident and composed.
The Grand Elder nodded and praised, "The Holy Son is like an Ancestor, with a transcendent mind and is not troubled by external things. He will surely attain the supreme Dao fruit."
Cultivating the Tao begins with cultivating the mind. The transcendent nature of the Holy Son of Yaoguang allows him to make rapid progress in his cultivation.
With the support of the entire Starry Sky Dao Sect's resources and fortune, becoming a Dao Immortal King is absolutely no problem.
Thinking it over, the Grand Elder said regretfully, "It's a pity that the kings wouldn't allow it. Otherwise, with the Holy Son's potential, he would surely have reached the top of the Star Path. How could we allow that brat Gu Qing to steal the limelight?"
"A tree that stands out in the forest will surely be felled by the wind. They are nothing but insignificant ants, not worth paying attention to," said the Holy Son of Yaoguang indifferently.
"The Holy Son is absolutely right."
Facing the Holy Son of Yaoguang, who remained unmoved by fame and fortune, the Grand Elder clapped his hands in praise.
As for Gu Qing, he is too high-profile and flamboyant, and doesn't know how to conceal his talents. He will eventually be a flash in the pan.
Just like the woman who once reached the top, even though she amazed an era, she still fell from grace.
The times have changed.
Having talent only means having the qualifications to cultivate oneself; if one wants to achieve something, wealth, companions, Dharma, and environment are all indispensable.
The further one progresses, the more rare and precious treasures of heaven and earth are needed to assist, and the Holy Son of Yaoguang has no shortage of these.
The Holy Son of Yaoguang has consumed countless treasures.
He had refined divine objects to nourish his physical body, cleansed his aptitude with the Three Lights Divine Water, and even consumed three drops of Time Marrow.
He even used the only innate spiritual treasure left by his ancestors to cleanse his aptitude.
In addition, there are renowned teachers to guide cultivation and powerful individuals to spar with.
The Holy Son of Yaoguang possesses profound knowledge and his Taoist magic and supernatural powers are perfect and flawless.
It can also command the entire Starry Sky Dao Sect to serve its purposes.
And what does Gu Qing have?
The three Xuan Gods, who have no foundation, are nothing to fear. Once Gu Qing enters the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm, it will be the time for their demise.
Throughout history, there have been countless brilliant talents like Gu Qing who were short-lived.
"Elder, have someone test Chu Yao and see if she is willing to betray the lineage."
Suddenly, Yao Guang Shengzi thought of Chu Yao. In the Desolate Ancient Star Domain, everyone was cultivating quietly and peacefully.
Chu Yao, however, was very active after joining the Starry Sky Dao Sect. She was present at every major event, and her skillful social skills allowed her to befriend many successors of immortal sects.
Even within the Starry Sky Dao Sect, he made many disciples.
In his view, Chu Yao posed the greatest threat.
However, everyone's attention was drawn to Gu Qing, so he had to give her a reminder.
"it is good!"
The Grand Elder pondered for a moment and said, "This woman has the bearing of a Celestial King and is extremely good at managing affairs. Why don't you let the Holy Son take her as a concubine? This would be a great fortune for her."
"She's not worthy." Yao Guang's Holy Son said coldly; he was only interested in Xingyue and Xiling.
Even though Chu Yao was beautiful and exceptionally talented, she couldn't stir any emotion in his heart.
"But……"
The elder hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
Because his divine sense had already detected that the woman whom the Holy Son of Yaoguang was not interested in was being surrounded by a huge crowd.
Despite being guests at a banquet, they turned the tables and became the hosts.
Meanwhile, the woman beloved by the Holy Son of Yaoguang is inquiring about Gu Qing's whereabouts.
