Of course, it wasn't worth it to sacrifice oneself to protect other cultivators!
The sea person immediately understood. No matter how many human cultivators there were, their lives were far less valuable than his. Why should he sacrifice his life to keep a human cultivator's secret?
"It's a cultivator from Penglai Island. His name is Zhen Yuanming. I heard that he came with the will of the suzerain of Penglai Island. Otherwise, he would have died long ago!" The sea person revealed a name.
Zhen Yuanming. Although he wasn't a Sacred Disciple, he was a direct disciple of Penglai Island. Most importantly, Zhen Yuanming was a trusted follower of Daoist Qing Song. Gu Qingxun knew this better than anyone else. Since Zhen Yuanming was hooked up with these sea people, it must have something to do with Daoist Qing Song. Gu Qingxun was finally sure. This made her very angry, but she also felt relieved, as if she had finally gotten rid of something.
"Good, very good!" Gu Qingxun nodded and said.
"Then are you going to let me go —"
Before the sea person could finish speaking, Gu Qingxun had already smashed his head and body with a slap. She was full of murderous intent. Qin Lang knew that this was because she had turned her anger into murderous intent, which meant that she had already regarded Daoist Qing Song as an enemy.
However, Gu Qingxun soon calmed down. After all, Daoist Qing Song was the suzerain of Penglai Island. Gu Qingxun's cultivation and status weren't something that Gu Qingxun could shake. Since Daoist Qing Song had already made up his mind to kill Gu Qingxun, Gu Qingxun would probably be doomed if she returned to Penglai Island now. Let alone denouncing her, she probably wouldn't even have the chance to see Daoist Qing Song. After all, Daoist Qing Song definitely wouldn't give Gu Qingxun a chance to live.
At this juncture, perhaps she could only choose to leave Penglai Island. Thinking of this, Gu Qingxun felt dispirited. At this moment, Gu Qingxun felt as if she had just left the Mystic Saint Palace. She felt very hesitant, as if her worldview had completely collapsed all of a sudden, leaving behind only ugliness and betrayal.
"Ah Lang, do we have no choice but to leave Penglai Island?" Gu Qingxun asked Qin Lang. She was glad that Qin Lang was still supporting her at this moment. Otherwise, she would feel like she had been abandoned by the whole world.
"What? Do you think it's very cruel? Are you feeling helpless? "Qin Lang asked Gu Qingxun." This is the essence of the Immortal Dao. "Qingxun, do you really think cultivation is such an easy thing? If it was that easy, your father and the Mystic Sacred Palace wouldn't have failed. Therefore, in your heart, there shouldn't be any flukes. You should rationally understand everything about cultivation, including Daoist Qing Song's betrayal. In fact, he didn't really betray you. He just made a choice that suited his own interests. "
Daoist Qing Song betrayed Gu Qingxun only to obtain the huge benefits he wanted. Although Daoist Qing Song was the sect leader of Penglai, he was also a cultivator. Since he could accept Gu Qingxun as his disciple for the sake of benefits, he could also betray Gu Qingxun for the sake of benefits.
This was the simplest and most direct way of thinking of cultivators. There was no need for too much reasoning. As long as there was a suitable opportunity to exchange for enough benefits, they could even sell their own sons. This was the style of cultivators.
"I'm very calm now, so I think we should leave Penglai together. Otherwise, even if we return to Penglai Island successfully, Daoist Qing Song won't let me go," Gu Qingxun said to Qin Lang. She was indeed very calm.
"Yes, that's the logic. However, once you leave Penglai Island, you won't have the chance to become Penglai's Sect Leader anymore. Have you thought it through? Do you really want to escape? "
"I don't want to give up this opportunity. Without Penglai's power, I have no capital to compete with Kunlun. However, if we don't escape, we won't even have our lives. How can we talk about revenge?" Gu Qingxun sighed.
"It's good that you have this idea." Qin Lang continued, "It's certain that Daoist Qing Song wants to kill us, but his plan has basically failed. You don't have to belittle yourself. He must think we're dead now, but as long as we seize the opportunity, we can give him a 'surprise'."
"What surprise?" Gu Qingxun asked.
"If I tell you, it won't be a surprise," Qin Lang said. "However, I've heard that the sea people have a tradition."
"What tradition?"
"If we kill a sea person, the sea people will definitely take revenge crazily. It's this tradition," Qin Lang said to Gu Qingxun. "I want to know if this tradition is real."
"Of course it's real! If it's not real, I think it's better not to try, "Gu Qingxun said. There was no cultivator in the sea who was not afraid of the Sea People Tribe. The sea was indeed too vast, so vast that it could hide countless powerhouses. Compared to the sea people, even the Three Major Immortal Mountains could only be regarded as endless. They were just overlords of a part of the sea, not the real ruler. Therefore, Gu Qingxun didn't think it was a wise choice to find trouble with the sea people.
"But we must try." Qin Lang said to Gu Qingxun, "Now, we won't return to Penglai, nor are we in a hurry to escape. We'll return to the Yuanzhang Mountain relic and wait for the sea people's revenge. We'll see if they're really as terrifying as the rumors say and if even the array formation of the Yuanzhang Mountain relic can't stop them!"
"That's a crazy idea!" Gu Qingxun could only give Qin Lang's suggestion the evaluation of 'crazy'. Because so long as it was a cultivator with some brains, then they would absolutely not think of something like this. After all, any cultivator with a brain would never provoke the legendary sea people in the endless sea.
"It's a little crazy, but it can help us get out of this awkward situation." Qin Lang said to Gu Qingxun, "You know that we can't return to Penglai Immortal Mountain now because Daoist Qing Song won't let us have an easy time. Then, what about escaping? If you choose to escape, you'll be a traitor of Penglai in the future. In addition, you're a remnant of the Mystic Sacred Palace. No matter where you escape to, you won't have an easy time! "
"But what does that have to do with this crazy choice?" Gu Qingxun asked again.
"Of course it has something to do with it." Qin Lang said, "If your influence is big enough, even if Daoist Qing Song wants to deal with you, he may not succeed. After all, there are many Grand Supreme Elders on Penglai Island. If your influence surpasses Daoist Qing Song's, those Grand Supreme Elders will definitely consider pushing you to the position of Sect Master of Penglai. At least, they can train you in that direction. No matter what, Daoist Qing Song won't be able to touch you then. "
"So? We have to go crazy this time. "
