The Concealing Heaven's Heart and the other Great Elders of Mount Fangzhang fell into deep thought. If they were to consider the overall situation of the three great immortal mountains, then Gu Qingxun's suggestion actually made sense. Although the three great immortal mountains were top-notch in the Ancient Kunlun World, they were not the most powerful sects in the Ancient Kunlun World. They were not even considered endless. They were not even the most powerful forces in the sea. If the three great immortal mountains had not formed an alliance with each other, it was very likely that the three great immortal mountains would have been completely destroyed. Even though the three great immortal mountains were in an alliance, they still had to listen to Kunlun and the Oceanic Tribe. Therefore, although the three great immortal mountains sounded very awe-inspiring in name, they were actually somewhat cowardly. If they followed Gu Qingxun's suggestion and strengthened the cooperation and communication between the three great immortal mountains, it might really be possible for the three great immortal mountains to merge into one. At that time, the overall strength of the three great immortal mountains would definitely increase by leaps and bounds.
In general, Gu Qingxun's trip to Mount Fangzhang this time was driven by some personal interests. However, from the perspective of the three great immortal mountains as a whole, it was completely reasonable and in line with the overall interests of the three great immortal mountains. Therefore, the Concealing Heaven's Heart and the Supreme Elders of Mount Fangzhang were quite annoyed. This was the reason why the Concealing Heaven's Heart and the Supreme Elders of Mount Fangzhang were quite annoyed.
After a moment of silence, the Concealing Heaven's Heart finally broke the silence. "It seems that Gu Qingxun came prepared this time. If we don't agree to her suggestion, it will definitely cause her dissatisfaction. Most importantly, it will also make some of the cultivators of Mount Fangzhang unhappy. We might as well beat her at her own game and agree to her suggestion. Then, we'll think of a way to mix things up and make her go for wool and come home shorn! At that time, the cultivators of Mount Fangzhang will learn the cultivation methods of Mount Penglai or lure the disciples of Mount Penglai to Mount Fangzhang to be used by us! "
"Since you can think of these things, don't tell me Gu Qingxun hasn't?" Another Supreme Elder expressed his doubts about the Concealing Heaven's Heart's decision.
"No, I don't think the Concealing Heaven's Heart's thinking is that simple," another Supreme Elder said. "It's true that Gu Qingxun wants to facilitate the union of the Three Generations Immortal Mountains and profit from it, but does Mount Fangzhang not want to lead the Three Generations Immortal Mountains? This time, Gu Qingxun came here to seek benefits for Penglai and herself, but if we make good use of it and beat her at her own game, we can make Gu Qingxun and Penglai go for wool and come home shorn! At that time, it won't be Penglai and Gu Qingxun who will benefit from it, but our Mount Fangzhang! "
"Not bad!" Concealing Heaven's Mind nodded and said, "The three great immortal mountains are of the same breath and branch. Strengthening cooperation and exchanges is actually a good idea. It's a good thing for our three great immortal mountains overall. However, the crux of the matter was who would lead the Three Great Immortal Mountains in the future. Whoever led the Three Great Immortal Mountains would have the right to speak. There was no need to doubt this! Although Gu Qingxun is very talented and good at scheming, her experience is far from enough. So, it's very difficult for Gu Qingxun to lead the three great immortal mountains, isn't it? "
"Indeed! Gu Qingxun's experience isn't enough, and her cultivation realm isn't high enough either. If the three great immortal mountains truly form an offensive and defensive alliance, it'll be very difficult for Gu Qingxun to be qualified for this position! "Another Grand Supreme Elder nodded and said.
With that, the tone was more or less set. The people present were all "old farts" of Mount Fangzhang. They were experienced and knowledgeable, so they all clearly believed that Gu Qingxun couldn't lead the three mountains. If they had to choose a leader among the three great immortal mountains, Gu Qingxun was undoubtedly unqualified. Since that was the case, there was nothing to worry about. When a cart reaches a mountain, there will always be a way. If Gu Qingxun could really facilitate the exchange between the disciples of the three great immortal mountains, then this was also an opportunity for Mount Fangzhang. As long as they grasped this opportunity and united the disciples of the three great immortal mountains into one, then made use of them, Mount Fangzhang would definitely achieve unprecedented glory.
In reality, although these fellows were smart and good at scheming, they didn't know that they were the ones who schemed against them. They didn't think about it carefully. If Gu Qingxun was so easily schemed against, how could Penglai's Grandmaster Pengwei have made her the sect leader? How could he have let her control such an important matter? Therefore, if the sect leader and Grand Supreme Elders of Mount Fangzhang only saw her lack of talent and low cultivation, they would always think that she wasn't qualified to compete with the Heaven's Obscuring Realm and that it was impossible for her to rule the three great immortal mountains. However, they overlooked Gu Qingxun's advantage. They didn't think about how Gu Qingxun could become the sect leader of Penglai Island at such a young age. Was it really just because she was lucky?
Underestimating one's opponent often came with a price, and the price was likely to be quite heavy. The sect leader and Grand Supreme Elders of Mount Fangzhang naturally had to pay a price for underestimating Gu Qingxun's existence. However, these old fellows all thought that their calculations were flawless. They thought that they had already seen through Gu Qingxun's intentions and thoughts. As such, as long as they made some preparations, they could completely dominate Gu Qingxun. This was what the Heaven's Obscuring Realm and the many Grand Supreme Elders of Mount Fangzhang thought.
Unfortunately, Gu Qingxun wasn't as simple as the Heaven's Obscuring Realm and the Grand Supreme Elders of Mount Fangzhang thought. Not only did she have the many Grand Supreme Elders of Penglai Island behind her, but most importantly, she had a strong backer like Qin Lang. If these old fellows of Mount Fangzhang wanted to scheme against Gu Qingxun, they were practically digging their own graves.
"Fellow Daoists of Mount Fangzhang, if Sect Leader Obscuring Realm agrees to my suggestion, then the cultivators of Penglai Island and Mount Fangzhang can interact more in the future and improve together. When that time comes, I, Gu Qingxun, will naturally welcome all Fellow Daoists to come to Mount Penglai as guests." At this moment, Gu Qingxun had completely become the focus of the cultivators of Mount Fangzhang.
"Our Mount Fangzhang has already agreed to Sect Leader Gu's suggestion!" At this moment, the Heaven's Obscuring Realm's voice suddenly rang out. The entire Mount Fangzhang heard his voice and immediately erupted in thunderous cheers. It was obvious that many cultivators of Mount Fangzhang hoped to reach this agreement. In that case, the cultivators of Mount Fangzhang could go to Penglai Island to broaden their horizons. They might even be able to learn some of Penglai Island's techniques.
