"Sect Master Gu, I didn't expect you to come to Immortal Abode Island. Please forgive me for not being a good host," Daoist Cloud Tooth said to Gu Qingxun.
"Sect Master Cloud Tooth, you're being too polite. The fact that you allowed me to ascend Immortal Mountain is enough to prove that you're a broad-minded person," Gu Qingxun said. Gu Qingxun said, "Since Sect Master Yunya thinks so highly of me, I won't hide it anymore. I'll come straight to the point. I came to Yingzhou Immortal Mountain this time to facilitate the exchange and cooperation between the disciples of the three Immortal Mountains because …"
"Sect Master Gu, I know what you mean. Although the three immortal mountains are united in name, it's only in name. In reality, we're far from truly united. Speaking of which, I'm ashamed. I've been in charge of Immortal Abode Island for a long time, but I've never been able to facilitate a true alliance between the three immortal mountains. Now that Sect Master Gu has personally come to Immortal Abode Island for this matter, I'm indeed embarrassed. In that case, I'll do my best to fulfill Sect Master Gu's request no matter what. "
Indeed, the older, the wiser!
Before Gu Qingxun finished speaking, Daoist Cloud Tooth had already expressed his full support for her. This way, she could indeed gain Gu Qingxun's favor and respect. This was something that Gu Qingxun had not expected at all. After all, when Gu Qingxun was at Mount Fangzhang, she had spent a lot of effort to convince the Heaven's Concealment Master to compromise and allow the cultivators of Mount Fangzhang and Penglai to cooperate. Gu Qingxun had thought that she would encounter greater resistance in Immortal Abode Island, but who knew that Daoist Cloud Tooth had already expressed his support before she had even finished speaking. Could it be that Daoist Cloud Tooth was really different from the rest? Or was he really getting stronger with age?
"This … I really didn't expect Sect Master Cloud Tooth to support my suggestion so much. I'm really surprised."
"Surprised? Why would I be surprised? The three immortal mountains have always been allies, and we should be united in spirit. However, the Sect Masters and Grand Elders of our three immortal mountains failed to truly unite the three immortal mountains. That's a pity to begin with. Now that Sect Master Gu is willing to work for this matter, how can I, Cloud Tooth, object? " Daoist Cloudtooth seemed to be looking at the bigger picture, and it was impossible to guess what he was really thinking. However, not to mention Qin Lang, even Gu Qingxun knew that Daoist Cloud Tooth didn't mean what he said. Otherwise, Daoist Cloudtooth wouldn't have occupied the position of sect head for so long without being able to facilitate the alliance and communication between the three great immortal mountains.
"Since Sect Master Cloud Tooth supports me so much, I believe that the cooperation between the disciples of the three great immortal mountains will soon be realized." Gu Qingxun didn't care about Daoist Cloud Tooth's true thoughts. Now that she was riding a tiger, she couldn't back down. She had no choice but to follow her previous plan and truly push for the alliance of the three great immortal mountains.
"I, too, hope to see the disciples of the three great immortal mountains strengthen their interactions as soon as possible and strengthen their friendship. That way, the three great immortal mountains can truly become one." Daoist Cloud Tooth nodded heavily in support. "In that case, I'll agree to your suggestion. If the Immortal Abode Island's disciples are dissatisfied, I will let them understand Sect Master Gu's good intentions. Even if it's the Immortal Abode Island's Supreme Elders, if they have any thoughts, I will explain it to them clearly. "
Straightforward! Straightforward!
To blame Daoist Cloud Tooth, he could be considered a formidable veteran. His decisiveness in dealing with the situation surprised both Qin Lang and Gu Qingxun.
They originally thought that they would encounter great resistance on Immortal Abode Island, but it went so smoothly. Even Qin Lang didn't expect this. It could only be said that this Sect Master of Penglai Island was quite capable. They had no choice but to admire him.
Daoist Cloud Tooth had already said that he would do his best to help Gu Qingxun achieve the cooperation between the disciples of the three great immortal mountains. In that case, there was no need for Gu Qingxun to continue staying on Immortal Abode Island. Previously, Gu Qingxun was still thinking about how to change the Immortal Abode Island's cultivators' opinion of her, how to deter them, and how to achieve her plan. She didn't expect things to be achieved so easily.
But no matter what, it was still considered good news.
Out of courtesy, Gu Qingxun stayed on Immortal Abode Island for a day before returning to Penglai Island. By the time Gu Qingxun and Qin Lang left, Penglai Island was already preparing to build the teleportation array between Penglai Island and Mount Fangzhang.
Once the teleportation array between the three great immortal mountains was built, it would mean that the disciples could directly reach the other two immortal mountains through the teleportation array. In that case, the three great immortal mountains would truly be united.
Because Gu Qingxun had already reached an agreement with the sea people, the journey back to Penglai Island was considered peaceful.
Although the sea was calm, Gu Qingxun's heart wasn't calm at all. This was probably because Gu Qingxun couldn't figure out Daoist Cloud Tooth's thoughts. Gu Qingxun felt that Daoist Cloud Tooth wasn't easy to deal with.
The ultimate goal of strengthening the communication between the disciples of the three great immortal mountains was to promote the true unity of the three great immortal mountains. This meant that two out of the three Sect Masters of the three great immortal mountains would definitely be overthrown, and there might even be no need for them to exist anymore. As an experienced person, Daoist Cloud Tooth could definitely see through this. However, he didn't object to it. Instead, he was very supportive of Gu Qingxun's suggestion. This was most likely because Daoist Cloud Tooth was actually considering how to unite the three great immortal mountains. Gu Qingxun's suggestion was like a timely rain to Daoist Cloud Tooth.
"Ha … I didn't expect our Sect Master Gu to use his brain now." After listening to Gu Qingxun's analysis, Qin Lang smiled and praised him. "Your analysis is right. Daoist Cloud Tooth is definitely not someone of noble character and unquestionable integrity. Otherwise, how could he have remained as the Sect Master of Immortal Abode Island? The reason why he supports you is because what you want to do is what he has always wanted to do. However, it doesn't matter. I know what he wants to do. Just like the Heaven Concealing Man, he actually wants to wait for you to promote the unity of the three great immortal mountains. Then, he will directly take the fruits of your labor! "
"So straightforward?" Gu Qingxun said to Qin Lang, "These two are really smart. They both want to take benefits from me after the three mountains unite."
