When he said this, the Sword Sect's headmaster's eyes wandered away from Gu Changsheng and Lu Qingming for a while, and he looked at the two of them thoughtfully, as if waiting for them to say something.
Gu Changsheng's heart skipped a beat. He was the only one present who had the Taichu inheritance. Lu Qingming was able to touch the Taichu ancient sword because he had given her some of the Taichu Qi when they were practicing dual cultivation. She relied on this qi to continue to nourish her. The ancient sword successfully established a vague connection...
In other words, she used the Taichu Qi transferred to her by Gu Changsheng to become familiar with Taichu Ancient Sword. In addition, she had successfully refined the Yaoyang Sword before, which allowed Lu Qingming to be able to hold the sword to a certain extent.
With the supreme cultivation level of the Sword Sect leader, he can naturally suppress the Taichu Ancient Sword with all his strength and then use it reluctantly, but this is not an increase in his combat power, but a weakening.
As the ultimate treasure of the Taiyi Sword Sect, if no one can completely control and exert its full strength after returning, wouldn't it be a bit of a stretch?
Lu Qingming naturally knew about Gu Changsheng's Taichu inheritance. Even Qin Wuyi had vaguely guessed it, but they knew it didn't matter. If the Supreme Master of the Sword Sect knew about it, he would definitely be more anxious than anyone else.
The reason is simple. Lu Qingming and Qin Wuyi know Gu Changsheng to some extent. Between the interests of the sect and Gu Changsheng's own safety, they will be more concerned about the latter. But the headmaster of the Sword Sect is different. As the headmaster of a sect, he will never be as emotional as them.
Whether it's deception or direct robbery, as long as he can get the Taichu inheritance, what's the point of Gu Changsheng sacrificing a little profit to achieve the overall goal?
"Headmaster, I'm afraid this is not a good place to discuss this." Qin Wuyi said calmly: "In my opinion, it is better to send the Taichu Ancient Sword back to the Taichu Sword Tomb first."
"It doesn't matter, the Taichu inheritance is related to the rise of our sect, and it is also related to the secrets deep in the Taichu Sword Tomb." The Supreme Headmaster smiled and waved his robe. Everything in the outside world was isolated by him, and it seemed that there was only one thing left between heaven and earth. Several of them were killed.
"Okay, Qingming, you can talk now."
"Reporting to the Headmaster, I did not find the Taichu inheritance in the Tianquan Ancient Road." Lu Qingming said calmly: "The so-called Taichu inheritance, I actually brought out part of it from the Sword Tomb back then."
"What you brought back is indeed the inheritance of Taichu. It's a pity that firstly, there is no corresponding elixir, and secondly, there is no cultivation environment like Taichu Sect." The headmaster of Jianzong sighed helplessly and said: "Even if one of these two conditions is met, There is also a way to restore the glory of Taichu Sect."
"That disciple doesn't know." Lu Qingming said softly: "Gu Changsheng and I were able to touch the Ancient Sword of Taichu, perhaps because he and I both participated in the fusion of the Ancient Sword of Taichu."
"Oh? The ancient sword of Taichu is not complete?"
"Well, the ancient sword is divided into two swords, Yao Yin and Yao Yang. If it weren't for Gu Changsheng, I probably wouldn't have been able to successfully fuse the ancient sword of Taichu."
"I see, well, well, it is true that a hero comes from a young age..." Sword Sect Headmaster smiled and said: "Gu Xiaoyou, I didn't expect that not only would you be highly praised by Elder Qin, but also by the Qingming little girl who always looked down upon the other geniuses. There can be such a good review..."
"The headmaster is so complimentary... These are actually the work of Senior Sister Lu alone. I was just assisting from the side." Gu Changsheng smiled coquettishly and decisively blamed everything on Emperor Lu. The old guy in front of him was on the same level as the leader of the Tianyan Sect. When dealing with people like him, who became more and more demonic as they got older, Gu Changsheng thought that he was not so defiant as to be able to handle it with ease.
The leader of the Tianyan Sect almost made Gu Changsheng burst into gold coins before, but he relied on the information difference of the mountain and river map nodes to deceive him and scare the old guy from the Tianyan Sect back... What should I do this time? Let the headmaster of the Sword Sect dispel his suspicion of me?
"Hey, young people should be more energetic. Don't always think about pretending to be pigs and eating tigers. If you have strength, you should show it!" The headmaster of the Sword Sect continued to say with a smile: "Xiao Gu... I have been a constant supporter of your growth. Those who have seen it, not to mention anything else, you are worthy of the title of a young genius just because of your brilliant performance in the inner sect competition."
"The follow-up was to contact Qingming in Tianquan Ancient Road, and to become Qingming's spokesperson to convey her will. It can be said to be a blockbuster!"
The more Gu Changsheng listened, the more he felt something was wrong. He thought to himself, you old man, you are not trying to flatter me to kill me, are you? Just bragging?
Have you been following me? So he noticed my use of the Yaoyin Sword and the Immortal-killing Sword Intent in Taichu's inheritance?
Thinking of this, Gu Changsheng suddenly felt a chill running down his spine. He was secretly glad that during the finals, he made a mistake and finally chose to give way to Qingming and log in from another place to win the game. Otherwise, if he continued to be exposed, he was afraid that he would expose his underwear to the headmaster of the Sword Sect. Got it
As a sect leader, this old guy will definitely not say nonsense like I have been your fan for ten years and have watched you rise all the way. Now that he mentioned what happened before, does that mean... what is he hinting at Gu Changsheng?
Your Taichu inheritance has been revealed... It depends on your choice whether you should look good on your own or if I can help you look good on yourself.
Gu Changsheng really wanted to take a gamble, but unfortunately he didn't seem to have any qualifications to bet in front of a big boss of this level - the headmaster of Tianyan Sect had the upper hand in that confrontation because he relied on information obtained from ancient times. .
Just when Gu Changsheng was in a dilemma, Emperor Lu suddenly spoke softly:
"Master, since the ancient sword of Taichu has returned, the Taichu Sword Tomb will be able to enter deeper areas. I want to enter the sword tomb to look for the remaining Taichu inheritance. Maybe I can find the recipe for the Taichu Qi elixir, or the elixir containing it. The spiritual place of the primordial energy.”
"Huh? Qingming, are you going to break into the Sword Tomb just after you came back?" The headmaster of the Sword Sect glanced at Gu Changsheng and said with a smile: "How about taking it slow, it will be fine if you rest for a while."
"We, the sword cultivators, have always been swimming against the current to hone our sword heart, and we have never stopped." Lu Qingming said lightly: "I have been to the Taichu Sword Tomb once, and I can come back alive on the Tianquan Ancient Road. The Sword Tomb It doesn’t hurt to go again.”
"No." Qin Wuyi said decisively: "You are not allowed to take risks anymore!"
Originally, Qin Wuyi wanted to go to Taichu Sword Tomb to find those secret answers so that Lu Qingming could return more smoothly. Now that I heard that Emperor Lu was going to the Sword Tomb as soon as he came back, Qin Wuyi was not willing to agree.
"If I want to go, I will go too. You stay in the sect properly. You are not allowed to go anywhere!"
"Master's wife, I'm fine."
Seeing Qin Wuyi and Lu Qingming fighting over who should go to the Taichu Sword Tomb to find the practice method of Taichu Qi, the headmaster of the Sword Sect suddenly looked at Gu Changsheng with deep meaning, as if asking the two women I'm prepared to risk my life just to protect you, are you still prepared to hide there all the time?
Although the old guy's method of provoking enemies is very old-fashioned, it has to be said that there is really no reason for Gu Changsheng to continue pretending to be stupid.
In order to prevent the headmaster of the Sword Sect from causing trouble to Gu Changsheng, Lu Qingming took the initiative to go to the Taichu Sword Tomb to look for the elixir. Anyway, what the headmaster wants is the practice method inherited from Taichu. It doesn't matter to him how it came from or who gave it to him.
She knew that Gu Changsheng was full of unknown secrets, and she also knew that he did not want to expose himself. So she chose to take risks alone again to save Gu Changsheng, which was considered as fulfilling her original promise to save him.
Although Gu Changsheng didn't want to expose himself, he also didn't want Lu Qingming to take risks for him... That's all. Anyway, he had already said that he would give Lu Qingming a Taichu Dust-Cleaning Pill...
And besides Taichu inheritance, there seems to be another very important thing that many people have ignored...
Thinking of this, Gu Changsheng finally interrupted Lu Qingming and Qin Wuyi: "Headmaster, my disciple is not talented, and I am willing to accompany Senior Sister Lu to the Taichu Sword Tomb you mentioned, to help Senior Sister win the complete Taichu inheritance! "
"Oh? Okay, I saw you right, Xiao Gu. It is a great blessing for the Sword Sect to have a rookie like you!"
When the old man heard Gu Changsheng's words, his eyes suddenly lit up. He stepped forward and patted Gu Changsheng's shoulder with a smile, and said in a tone that it's best if you can figure it out.
Qin Wuyi and Lu Qingming were slightly shocked when they heard this. Everyone present knew that the so-called willingness to accompany Lu Qingming to the Taichu Sword Tomb was just a pretense. The real meaning was that Gu Changsheng was willing to compromise for the sake of Emperor Lu. Out of inheritance.
When the time comes, I will go around the Taichu Sword Tomb, and then say that the Taichu inheritance and the cultivation method of Taichu Qi are both found in the sword tomb. Everyone knows each other well, and Gu Changsheng can still continue to be a harmless young disciple. , Lu Qingming’s spokesperson.
Only the headmaster and some people knew that he, as a spokesperson, was actually more important than Lu Qingming himself in some matters.
You like to keep a low profile, then I will give you a step down to keep a low profile... This is what the headmaster of the Sword Sect was thinking at the moment. He smiled and patted Gu Changsheng on the shoulder, thinking that the old guy from the Tianyan Sect was not bluffing. I guess...you're saying that this guy is definitely not a normal person, and he's not easy to deal with at all?
I think it's actually quite easy to deal with~ As expected, that old guy from Tianyan Sect is still confused.
Gu Changsheng just smiled and said nothing. Of course, he didn't have the high consciousness to directly hand over the elixir recipe. How many Taichu Dust Cleansing elixirs he could get out still depended on the subsequent efforts between him and Lu Dadi.
"but…"
Gu Changsheng changed the topic and continued to speak slowly: "In my disciple's opinion, we shouldn't focus on our Sword Sect family right now, right?"
"The answer at the end of Tianquan Ancient Road...how should we explain it to other sects?"
As soon as these words came out, the three of them were slightly startled, and then they frowned... It seems that the ultimate purpose of Tianquan Ancient Road is to find the answer, and the secret treasure is only a secondary purpose. But as the fairyland in the Fluttering Light Realm has been at peace for a long time, the secondary purpose has become the most important thing that everyone pays attention to.
Except for a few of the helmsmen who stood at the top, not many people noticed that the ship in the Shaking Light Domain had already lost its way on the sea and was in urgent need of finding a compass to determine the direction of travel.
"Qingming...?"
"I didn't find it." Lu Qingming shook her head. She really didn't find anything at the end of Tianquan Ancient Road. However, she seemed to think of something immediately. After a moment of silence, she turned around and met Gu Changsheng's gaze...
"That stone platform!"
"Stone platform?"
"After the ancient sword of Taichu was successfully fused, it sank into the stone platform and opened the entrance to the shaking light domain. Looking back now, that stone platform may contain some kind of secret."
Gu Changsheng nodded. Others didn't know, but he knew very well - without his appearance and intervention, the correct return trajectory of Emperor Lu would have been to find the Yao Yin and Yao Yang swords and merge them into the Taichu Ancient Sword, and then open the entrance. Return to the realm of fluctuating light.
Being able to take over the Kunlun Mirror and the Fluctuating Light Realm respectively, this stone platform would definitely not be an ordinary object.
"Then can you bring that stone platform back?" The headmaster of the Sword Sect frowned and said, "I can take it to the Tianyan Sect to look up the classics and find out what its origins are."
"It should be okay." Lu Qingming glanced at Gu Changsheng calmly, and after getting his approval, he said softly: "I just want to go back and bring my fiancée back."
Gu Changsheng: "..."
Sword Sect Headmaster: "..."
Emperor Lu, please be more restrained, murderous intent is almost overflowing from your eyes!
"Headmaster, regarding the matter of retrieving the stone platform, this disciple feels that there is no need to be so hasty." Gu Changsheng thought for a while and expressed a different opinion: "Is there a possibility that it is not a good thing for us to retrieve the answer so quickly?"
"What does Gu Xiaoyou mean by this?"
Gu Changsheng hesitated for a moment, then took a step forward and got a little closer, gesturing to the old man to isolate the conversation area a little. The headmaster of the Sword Sect was initially a little unconcerned, thinking that there was no need to hide this from even a talented person like Lu Qingming of the Sword Sect...
But when he heard the words from Gu Changsheng's mouth, a look of shock and disbelief instantly appeared on the old face, and then he decisively waved his hand and added a barrier:
"What you said...is it true?"
"Headmaster, you can ask the headmaster of Tianyan Sect." Gu Changsheng said calmly: "Disciple just doesn't want the things that Senior Sister Lu has come back from through life and death to end up as wedding clothes for others."
The headmaster of the Sword Sect pondered for a moment, and finally nodded slowly: "Okay... I'll do what you said."
After that, he didn't have time to explain the reason to Lu Qingming. He hurriedly said goodbye and his figure turned into pure sword light and disappeared between heaven and earth. The ancient sword of Taichu was sent to the Taichu Sword Tomb by him.
"What did you just...say to the Headmaster?"
"Keep it a secret for now. You'll know when the time comes." Gu Changsheng smiled slightly and acted as the Riddler for the time being. What he and the Sword Sect Master were talking about were naturally about the nodes of the Mountains and Rivers Diagram.
Since in ancient times, there were people who destroyed the nodes of the Mountain and River Diagram and thought it was rare in the Immortal World, would it be similarly rare in the Fluctuating Light Realm today?
This is what Gu Changsheng thought when he just felt those cold eyes. If the destruction of large areas such as the Tianquan Domain and Tianshu Domain in the Kunlun Realm was inseparable from the presence of Erwu Zai, then there is no reason why there is no Erwu Zai in the Yaoguang Domain now.
The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. If this continues, we will be busy enough to prevent backstabs, but where will we have time to save the Fluttering Light Realm? Therefore, the most important thing at the moment is to use this so-called "answer" to fish out the rats in the gutter.
Thinking like this, Gu Changsheng subconsciously looked at Qin Wuyi, as if expecting to get some support from her. But when their eyes met, Gu Changsheng remembered that he and Qin Wuyi were still in a state of rupture. It seems inappropriate to communicate with eyes like this.
So Gu Dahuangmao looked away uncomfortably, and Qin Wuyi's eyes hesitated for a moment and moved elsewhere...
The most important thing in the Cold War is momentum. Whoever bows his head first will lose!
Emperor Lu on the side saw the strange and stiff atmosphere between his wife and Gu Dahuangmao, and couldn't help but slowly asked a question...
What happened between Gu Changsheng and his wife? Why are you so uncomfortable?
Could it be that the rumors are true... The master's wife also treats Gu Changsheng! ! !
