Chapter 165: Bullying the Immortal Peerless to Tears, Crying Until His Voice Was Hoarse
Looking at her obedient, timid, and frightened little sister, Zhi Meng felt a wave of tenderness wash over her.
As long as my little sister doesn't like Lin Xuan, everything is fine.
No, that's not right. My little sister has another bad habit that she needs to get rid of.
Zhi Meng's smile vanished, and the gloomy expression that terrified Luo Rou reappeared on her face.
Luo Rou has an excellent physique, being an innate Dao body, yet she is exceptionally lazy, practicing only sporadically.
He has only reached the peak of the Venerable Realm after cultivating for so long.
Anyone else would have already cultivated to the late stage of the Saint Realm.
After all, Luo Rou has everything she needs: wealth, companionship, legal means, and land.
In addition, although Luo Rou has let go of Lin Xuan, there is a possibility that their old feelings may rekindle, so she has to be careful.
It would be best to make Luo Rou and Lin Xuan enemies.
Therefore, the plan must continue.
Thinking of this, Zhi Meng sent a telepathic message to Gu Qing.
She had complete peace of mind entrusting this matter to Gu Qing.
Gu Qing nodded slightly, indicating that there was no problem.
After taking the two away and returning to Starlight Peak, Luo Rou immediately jumped up and down, pointing and cursing in the direction of Zhi Meng.
"Like begets like, and a maidservant gave birth to an evil child. You heartless and wicked woman, I'll beat you to death one day..."
Gu Qing: ...
Don’t say it, don’t say it.
Luo Rou's way of cursing has a unique beauty that is pleasing to the eye.
It's just so frustrating.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have thought that Luo Rou, with her beautiful face, slender figure, and quiet and elegant temperament, would actually swear?
Lin Chuqing chuckled softly: "Master, you are the legitimate daughter of the Zhuang family, a lady of high birth. Why bother arguing with a concubine's daughter?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Rou's pink lips, which had been opening and closing, stopped moving.
A gleam of wisdom shone in her clear eyes, and in high spirits, she smiled and said, "Qing'er is right."
"Go and have fun, I won't disturb your lovey-dovey time."
After saying that, Luo Rou left with a big smile on her face.
Even though she was inferior to Zhi Meng in every way, she was the legitimate daughter and a lady of high birth.
Her status is a thousand times, ten thousand times higher than Zhi Meng's.
"What an idiot." Gu Qing smiled knowingly as he looked at her beaming face.
Nothing can compare to Zhi Meng; her background is probably Luo Rou's last act of defiance!
"Master is naturally like that, optimistic, cheerful, innocent and romantic, not stupid." Lin Chuqing said with a serious expression.
Gu Qing was taken aback, then chuckled, "I didn't mean to look down on her. It's good that she's carefree like this."
Lin Chuqing hummed in agreement, her eyes revealing a determined look.
"You want to protect her for the rest of your life?" Gu Qing asked in astonishment upon seeing this.
"Mmm!" Lin Chuqing hummed softly, her expression more resolute than ever before.
The image of a domineering disciple protecting a silly but beautiful master is immediately relatable.
Gu Qing immediately nodded: "I'll protect her with you. I'll give her some good stuff later to make sure she can cultivate to the Divine Fire Realm safely."
"This..." Lin Chuqing subconsciously wanted to refuse, after all, Luo Rou was her master, and protecting Luo Rou was her duty.
It has nothing to do with Gu Qing.
Gu Qing has absolutely no reason to bear this responsibility.
In addition, Gu Qing has not only given her the precious liquid over the years, but also a portion of Luo Rou.
Gu Qing has already done enough; she doesn't want to trouble Gu Qing any further.
"Don't overthink it, your master is my master."
"Let's go!"
Gu Qing took her small hand and walked towards the market of the Star God Temple.
As she entered the city and looked at the crowds of young men and women, Lin Chuqing exclaimed in surprise, "So many prodigies! Are they all disciples of the Temple?"
These young men and women are not old, but they all have cultivation levels above the Purple Mansion Realm, with abundant blood and qi and a solid foundation.
Moreover, their physical constitution is at least at the spiritual level, and any one of them is no weaker than an inner disciple of an outer holy land.
"No, they are mostly miscellaneous disciples of the temple, numbering in the millions, with over a hundred thousand outer disciples," Gu Qing explained.
Lin Chuqing was even more shocked and said in disbelief, "They have such good aptitude, they can all be admitted to the Holy Land as inner disciples, or even true disciples, why do they have to be menial servants?"
“Then naturally the servants of the temple are better than the true disciples of the holy land.” Gu Qing smiled, looking relaxed and at ease.
"Don't underestimate these lowly servants. They all cultivate King-level techniques, can choose any Heaven-level martial arts, and have access to all kinds of elixirs and miraculous medicines."
"In addition, if you can become an outer disciple, you can cultivate Saint-level techniques and ordinary supernatural abilities."
"Even if they can't become outer disciples, they still have a bright future."
"Once you reach the Void Dao Realm, you will be sent out of the temple to govern a region and wield real power."
"Finally, if you have enough contribution points, you can exchange them for a divine-level cultivation technique."
After listening, Lin Chu understood.
Aside from their status, the treatment of menial disciples is far better than that of true disciples of the Holy Land. The Holy Land would never allow an outer disciple to cultivate a King-level technique.
As for divine-level cultivation techniques, that's pure fantasy; only a select few can cultivate them.
However, disciples of the Star Temple can exchange for them.
This is the key to immortality; this alone is enough to make countless geniuses fight tooth and nail to join.
"With such a profound foundation, it's no wonder that the Star Temple has remained prosperous for so long," Lin Chuqing exclaimed.
The Star Temple was far more powerful than she had imagined.
There are so many servant disciples who plunder resources for the temple.
The sheer amount of rare and precious materials they bring in each year is simply unimaginable.
With a vast amount of rare and precious natural resources, one can continuously cultivate extraordinary talents, forming a perfect closed loop that will last forever.
Gu Qing hummed in agreement and changed the subject: "Take whatever you like. I have unlimited contribution points. I can empty the entire city without any problem."
Upon hearing this, Lin Chuqing was stunned: "Really...really?"
You should know that the city is full of treasures, including elixirs, magic weapons, talismans, and priceless raw stones, each of which is extremely valuable.
Gu Qing actually dared to say that he would move everything out.
Why doesn't she believe it so much?
"They're just ordinary things. If we run out, we can just have someone find us another batch," Gu Qing said indifferently.
Seeing her adorable expression, Gu Qing's eyes darkened, and he subconsciously tightened his grip on her soft, boneless hand, his mind wandering.
Lin Chuqing is the cold and ruthless type, like a transcendent immortal looking down on the world, untouched by worldly affairs.
Her occasional glimpses of adorable innocence are incredibly captivating and irresistible.
Gu Qing suddenly had a strong urge to taint the ethereal immortal with worldly dust and bully her mercilessly until she cried and begged for mercy.
"Don't look."
Lin Chuqing quickly came to her senses and felt Gu Qing's burning gaze. She looked flustered, and her delicate earlobes turned slightly red.
She broke free from Gu Qing's hand and hurriedly walked into a stone workshop.
She knows Gu Qing too well.
He looks serious, upright, and a handsome young man.
In reality, he was full of bad intentions and bullied her a lot when she was a child, making her suffer in various ways.
Now that Gu Qing has grown up, things seem even worse.
Gu Qing slapped his forehead in frustration. So many years have passed, why can't he control his bad habit of wanting to bully Lin Chuqing?
Gu Qing didn't want to be like this either, and he wanted to get rid of this bad habit.
But seeing Lin Chuqing's indifferent and ruthless expression, Gu Qing couldn't help but want to bully her until she cried, until her voice was hoarse.
Lin Chuqing calmed her flustered emotions and began to carefully select raw stones.
She would choose whichever piece she felt a connection with.
"Shopkeeper, please open it for me."
Soon, Lin Chuqing picked out a few pieces.
Gu Qing scanned the contents with his Dao Eye; they were all quite ordinary. He'd really lost out.
He was a little curious. Lin Chuqing had the Immortal Eyes, which could see through raw stones. Why didn't she use them?
"Why don't you use the Immortal Eyes to check?" Gu Qing asked telepathically.
"It's just for fun, whether we win or not doesn't matter." Lin Chuqing and Luo Rou had been to a jade gambling den once.
I also used the Celestial Eye to examine things and obtained many treasures.
But real jade gambling is all about the thrill.
Using the "Fairy Eye" tool to check would be cheating, and would destroy the anticipation of gambling on stones, eliminating the thrill of highs and lows.
Therefore, she will not use the Celestial Eyes unless absolutely necessary.
"That's true, then I'll have a few pieces too."
Gu Qing nodded and randomly picked a few pieces based on her liking and intuition, feeling inexplicably expectant.
The first two pieces are waste stones, and the last two pieces are broken divine iron.
The last piece yielded Yin-Yang Immortal Gold, and it was even complete.
This made Gu Qing excitedly hug Lin Chuqing and give her the Yin-Yang Immortal Gold on the spot.
Gu Qing finally believed in luck.
After all, this is Yin-Yang Immortal Gold, a level higher than Divine Iron.
It can be refined into a profound divine treasure; even in the immortal realm, Yin-Yang Immortal Gold is a supreme treasure.
"let's go."
Ignoring the eager and greedy gazes of the crowd, Gu Qing pulled Lin Chuqing away, wandering around, buying all kinds of fairy dresses and jewelry, and tasting delicacies.
"Ah Qing, they all seem to be fighting for the Divine Child, aren't you worried at all?"
After wandering around the market for seven days and hearing all sorts of comments, Lin Chuqing finally couldn't hold back any longer.
Because if she doesn't ask, Gu Qing will continue to leisurely accompany her.
"No rush. It's not easy for us to get together. We don't know when we'll get together again, so I naturally want to spend quality time with you."
After saying this, Gu Qing felt a pang of melancholy. Cultivators possess long lifespans and spend their entire lives pursuing the path to immortality.
Countless people have followed one after another on the road to immortality, only to fall and perish, with very few actually attaining eternal life.
And he is just one of the masses, a speck of dust in the vast universe.
Perhaps he will eventually attain immortality.
Perhaps I'll collapse on the road.
But no matter what, Gu Qing felt that her life shouldn't be like this.
Pursuing the Great Way is his wish, and the scenery along the way is not to be missed.
"Don't worry, I am the Zhou Tian Star God Body, the position of God Child is rightfully mine." Gu Qing added, then added in his mind that he is now the Chaos Undying Body, and he can become stronger as long as he is alive.
Lin Chuqing disagreed: "Aqing, you must not be blindly confident. You must know that there is always someone better than you. You have such an advantage, so you should make good use of it instead of relying on your physique to be complacent and stagnant."
"..."
Gu Qing never expected that she would one day be the one being lectured.
Whatever.
It's time to demonstrate the greatness of the Zhou Tian Xing Chen Divine Body.
There's no need to hide it.
Gu Qing never intended to hide his Zhou Tian Xing Chen Divine Body, but he also had no desire to tell others.
The reason for keeping it a secret is simply the imagination of the ancestors and elders.
"Ye Bufan has returned from the outside world. I'm going to kill him. Your master won't have any objections, will he?"
"No, don't worry. Although Master is kind, he is still clear-headed when it comes to matters of principle."
"That's good."
Gu Qing's eyes flickered.
Although he had been with Lin Chuqing these past few days, he was fully aware of Lin Xuan's movements.
Every time he went out to recruit disciples, Luo Li scared away the students who wanted to become his disciples.
There were one or two who weren't afraid of death; they became disciples in the morning, only to be reduced to ashes by Luo Li in the afternoon.
Killing Lin Xuan's last disciple would completely sever the key to Lin Xuan's rise to power.
