Chapter 254 After waiting so long, it's finally time to close the net.
After much deliberation, You Kui decided to test Zhi Meng's background first.
After all, he was the strongest Xuan God who survived the aftershocks of a Celestial King's divine power.
He didn't believe that there was another monster like Jiang Yu in the world.
But then again.
The fact that their lineage suddenly gained two more Xuan Shen Realm experts is a great joy.
The heavy burden on his shoulders suddenly lightened considerably.
Even if he were to perish one day, their lineage would not decline.
Under the leadership of the two peerless heroes, it will only become more glorious.
After a brief moment of shock, the other branches also realized this.
Previously, the Ancient Starfield lineage only had You Kui. To put it bluntly, once You Kui perished, the Ancient Starfield lineage could be removed from the Star Dao Sect.
But now there are suddenly two more Xuan Shen Realm experts, plus Gu Qing, who is also a prodigy.
The Ancient Starfield lineage has truly risen to prominence.
If Gu Qing becomes the Divine Child again, what chance will the Starry Sky Dao Sect have in the future?
We absolutely cannot let Gu Qing become the God Child.
The heads of each branch made the same decision almost simultaneously.
Jiang Yu's peach blossom eyes were deep and affectionate as she scanned the room, her heart filled with disdain.
A bunch of scheming and despicable people, whose cultivation has not improved at all and who dare not go out to take risks, are keeping a close eye on the Starry Sky Dao Sect's meager resources.
They think they're something special, they're completely clueless.
When that wicked Zhimeng arrives, she'll teach these ants a lesson on how to be human.
The mere Star Dao Sect is only fit to be Gu Qing's foil.
"May I ask, Peak Master Zilian, what is the reason for Gu Qing and Zhi Meng's rapid improvement in cultivation?"
"Did they take banned drugs to forcibly boost their cultivation levels?"
Then, a young man stepped forward, clasped his hands in greeting, and asked.
He stared intently at Jiang Yu, as if he were about to interrogate her.
"Ouch."
In the main hall of Purple Lotus Peak, everyone stared at him in shock.
I never expected Shi Qian to be so brave.
In fact, they had the same idea: Gu Qing and Zhi Meng must possess a great treasure and have obtained a great opportunity.
He even possesses Time Essence, which explains his rapid advancement in cultivation.
But it's best to keep these things to yourself; saying them aloud is a different matter altogether.
In the cultivation world, it is a major taboo to pry into other people's opportunities. The consequences can be severe or mild. If you are killed on the spot, you have only yourself to blame.
Furthermore, Shi Qian really doesn't take Jiang Yu seriously at all.
Although Shi Qian was at the seventh level of the Heavenly God Realm.
Although they appear to be only one major realm apart from Jiang Yu, their actual statuses are worlds apart.
Celestial Gods and Mystic Gods are not the same concept at all; they belong to different realms.
How dare Shi Qian be so arrogant and interrogate Jiang Yu? Isn't he afraid of being beaten to death on the spot?
In fact, Shi Qian was not afraid at all.
It wasn't that he had any powerful backers, but rather that Jiang Yu was kind-hearted and gentle, treating even the menial disciples with tenderness. Since arriving at the Starry Sky Dao Sect, he had never committed any murder.
Moreover, Jiang Yu has always been very low-key, staying in her cave and not coming out, living a life of peace and quiet.
He was the ancestor of another lineage of Xuan Shen Realm experts, and his family also had a Xuan Shen Realm expert.
Possessing unparalleled skills, he is one of the ten true disciples of the Starry Sky Dao Sect.
Given Shi Qian's prominent status, he believed that even if Jiang Yu was unhappy, he would at most ask her to step down.
After all, he was asking about Gu Qing and Zhi Meng's destiny, not Jiang Yu's.
Moreover, his next sentence had already given both sides a way out.
And he dared to confront the Mystic God face-to-face at this grand celebration—what a glorious moment that was!
He will be the biggest winner of this celebration.
"I don't know!"
Jiang Yu shook her head, her expression calm.
Upon seeing this, Shi Qian was overjoyed.
As he expected, Jiang Yu was even kinder and gentler than he had imagined.
They didn't even scold him.
"Ok?"
Shi Qian wanted to continue showing off, after all, such a good opportunity to show off would be missed if he didn't take it.
But just as he was about to speak, he opened his mouth, yet no sound came out.
Shi Qian looked down and saw that his body was disintegrating into specks of light.
Shi Qian looked up at Jiang Yu, shook his head frantically, and begged for mercy, but no sound came out. His expression was one of extreme terror.
He didn't understand why Jiang Yu was so decisive in killing him.
Could it be that Jiang Yu's gentleness and kindness are all a facade, and that she is actually a ruthless person?
But if you're going to pretend, why not continue pretending?
Aren't you afraid of your public image collapsing?
With many questions lingering in his mind, Shi Qian's consciousness plunged into darkness, and he was completely annihilated.
"hiss."
died.
Shi Qian is really dead.
Even though everyone had anticipated that Shi Qian might be killed on the spot, seeing him actually killed still made them feel a sense of lingering fear.
The Xuan Shen, a powerful being, is indeed not to be insulted.
Even though Shi Qian has two Xuan Gods as his backers and is a promising genius, he still cannot escape death for provoking a Xuan God.
The crowd couldn't help but feel a little smug.
Let your arrogance continue, okay?
Shi Qian's ambition to gain fame by stepping on the face of a Xuan Shen Realm expert is truly audacious.
I really don't know if Shi Qian is so desperate for fame that he's gone mad, or if he's been cultivating for too long and his brain has gone haywire.
Jiang Yu is indeed gentle and kind-hearted, but that doesn't mean she's easy to bully.
As for Shi Qian, he provoked the Xuan God, and even if he died, it would be in vain. Even if his family's Xuan God ancestor and Xuan God master knew about it, they wouldn't be able to explain it.
Even if he wanted to take revenge on Jiang Yu, he probably couldn't.
After all, there was a powerful Xuan God sitting next to him who had withstood the aftershocks of a Celestial King's divine power without dying.
But then again.
What kind of supernatural power does Jiang Yu possess?
Although the Mystic God and the Celestial God are not in the same realm, a large number of Celestial Gods can be killed in the blink of an eye.
But Jiang Yu only glanced at Shi Qian and he was reduced to ashes. They couldn't even see any trace of Jiang Yu casting the spell. This supernatural power is too strange and terrifying!
You Kui secretly wiped away a bead of cold sweat.
Jiang Yu showed him mercy back then.
Even he couldn't detect any trace of Jiang Yu using supernatural powers, which shows how terrifying Jiang Yu is.
The strongest Xuan God, the glory of his life, has ultimately changed hands.
A sense of defeat rose in You Kui's heart.
However, the thought of Jiang Yu's low profile brought him some comfort.
Fortunately, no one knew that he had been beaten to a pulp.
"Is there anyone else who wants to ask?"
Jiang Yu glanced around, her eyes filled with tenderness, her voice gentle and melodious, like heavenly music.
The crowd shook their heads repeatedly, many turning pale and involuntarily taking a step back.
After all, we only have one life, so let's cherish every moment.
"Since there is nothing else, this celebration will now conclude."
Jiang Yu waved his hand listlessly and disappeared first.
She felt no sense of belonging to the Starry Sky Dao Sect; she only came here because of the Starry Sky Divine Palace.
By the way, pave the way for Gu Qing and those old ancestors of the Star God Temple.
"Should I go pick up Aqing?"
Back in her cave, Jiang Yu activated her Heavenly Vision and Earthly Hearing, her gaze piercing through endless time and space as she glanced at Gu Qing, who was meditating on the flying boat.
"Not bad, you even know that cultivating the Tao begins with cultivating the mind, and you consciously temper your mind. All my efforts have not been in vain." Jiang Yu withdrew her gaze, her expression gratified.
In fact, she had long realized that Gu Qing was emotionally fragile. He seemed intelligent and composed, and acted ruthlessly and skillfully, but in reality, he was just a young man.
Such a mindset is fine for an ordinary person, but too immature for a cultivator.
It should be noted that many cultivators travel by flying on their swords, taking years to complete their journeys.
Gu Qing was unwilling to take any detours and always wanted to take shortcuts to success.
He had always longed for her Purple Lotus Transformation Technique.
Little did they know that a towering building rises from the ground, and glory can only be achieved through one's own efforts.
You need to be strong yourself to forge iron.
It was indeed the right decision to have Zhi Meng take Gu Qing to temper his mind. Gu Qing realized the hardships of being a cultivator and the importance of a calm and focused mind.
Gu Qing attained the Dao Fruit of Undying Chaos several thousand years earlier than she had expected, which shows how important mental state is to a cultivator.
It's just a pity that Zhi Meng was focused on pursuing the Dao and had no intention of getting married.
Or perhaps, Zhi Meng is too proud to accept becoming a Daoist partner with her disciple.
This completely thwarted her plan to ridicule Zhimeng.
"The Great Dao is ruthless... I wonder what changes will occur after A Qing's state of mind improves, and whether she will still be willing to play husband and wife with me in the future."
Jiang Yu rested her chin on her hand, her peach blossom eyes, shimmering with deep affection, played with the communication jade as she murmured.
"Being invincible is too lonely."
"Immortality is even more boring and tedious."
"It's too difficult to be carefree."
"Aqing is still the best."
"It's just a little broken."
Thinking of Gu Qing's treacherous words, a faint blush appeared on Jiang Yu's fair and flawless face.
Suddenly, she felt a little reluctant to see Gu Qing, fearing that Gu Qing might suddenly hug her leg and say something that would make her blush and her heart race.
Jiang Yu shook her head secretly, not thinking any further. She glanced at Zhi Meng again, her red lips slightly upturned: "After waiting for so long, we can finally close the net."
