"Qingxun, don't be angered by Daoist Cloud Tooth!" At this moment, Qin Lang reminded Gu Qingxun not to act rashly. If Gu Qingxun acted rashly, all her previous efforts might go to waste, and it would be very difficult for her to rule Immortal Abode Island in the future. At least, it would be very difficult for her to do so in a short period of time. If she wanted to rule all the cultivators on Immortal Abode Island, she had to make all the cultivators on Immortal Abode Island feel that Gu Qingxun was protecting their dignity. If Gu Qingxun killed Daoist Cloud Tooth, it would be equivalent to killing the Sect Master of Immortal Abode Island. If that happened, none of the cultivators and elders on Immortal Abode Island would feel proud.
"I know I shouldn't be angered so easily, but this Daoist Cloud Tooth is really despicable. I've already given him a way out, but he still refuses to take it! This guy would rather die than live in dishonor! "Gu Qingxun said hatefully. She had already reached the limit of her patience with Daoist Cloud Tooth. If Qin Lang hadn't stopped him, Gu Qingxun's anger would have been completely unleashed by now.
"Die in dishonor?" Qin Lang chuckled. "Trust me, Daoist Cloud Tooth doesn't really want to die in dishonor. His greatest ambition is to become the leader of the three major immortal mountains. So, as long as there's a chance, he will fight for it. Otherwise, since you've already given him a way out, why wouldn't he take it? "
"But the point is, after I take control of Immortal Abode Island, how will he still have a chance to fight for the leadership of the three major immortal mountains?" Gu Qingxun asked.
"It doesn't matter if he has a chance or not. What's important is that you have to make him feel that he still has a chance! I can guarantee that as long as Daoist Cloud Tooth feels that he still has a chance, he definitely won't seek death! "Qin Lang was very clear about Daoist Cloud Tooth's state of mind.
This Cloud Tooth Daoist didn't really want to die. He just didn't want to give up on the goal he had been pursuing all his life. It was just like how some people didn't understand why some people didn't want to leave the arena of power. Even if they were in their seventies or eighties, they still wanted to sit in the seat of power until they died.
"Then, how can I satisfy this guy?" Gu Qingxun was confused.
"I'll give you an idea. I'm sure you'll be able to make Daoist Cloud Tooth give in." Qin Lang offered Gu Qingxun an idea.
"What kind of idea is that? Do you think Daoist Cloud Tooth is a child? "Gu Qingxun didn't seem to agree with Qin Lang's idea.
"You'll know after you try," Qin Lang said to Gu Qingxun.
At this moment, Gu Qingxun was in complete control of the situation, so he was in the mood to chat with Qin Lang using his divine senses. For the disciples and grand elders of Immortal Abode Island, it was a very difficult time. Although Gu Qingxun and Daoist Cloud Tooth's cultivation realms weren't bad, and it should have been a fierce battle, it seemed very boring now. Everyone could see that Daoist Cloud Tooth was at a complete disadvantage, but he refused to admit defeat. If it had been a fight to the death, Gu Qingxun would have probably killed Daoist Cloud Tooth already. However, Gu Qingxun had probably considered the fact that the Three Great Immortal Mountains were on the same side and refused to kill Daoist Cloud Tooth. Thus, Daoist Cloud Tooth had a chance to live. At this moment, none of the cultivators of Immortal Abode Island believed that Gu Qingxun had killed Daoist Cloud Tooth's son, because Gu Qingxun had the chance to kill Daoist Cloud Tooth. Besides, it was a fair battle. Even if Daoist Cloud Tooth was killed, the cultivators of Immortal Abode Island wouldn't gang up on Gu Qingxun.
At this moment, Gu Qingxun had obviously gained the upper hand. Now, it was just a matter of how beautifully she won the battle. At this moment, Gu Qingxun said to Daoist Cloud Tooth loudly, "Daoist Cloud Tooth, I, Gu Qingxun, admire your determination to become the leader of the three immortal mountains. Although you can't compete with me now, you still have the chance to fight for the next leader of the Tri-Mountain Alliance. You can worship me as your master and be my personal disciple. With my guidance, your cultivation realm will definitely improve. Besides, with my identity as my personal disciple, it's understandable that you want to fight for the leader of the three mountains!"
The cultivators of Immortal Abode Island and the Supreme Elders were dumbfounded. None of them expected Gu Qingxun to make such a suggestion. Was she really going to force Daoist Cloud Tooth to his death? After all, Daoist Cloud Tooth was a rather prideful person. If he was asked to worship Gu Qingxun, his enemy, as his master, wouldn't that be equivalent to forcing him to his death?
However, to everyone's surprise, including Gu Qingxun himself, Daoist Cloud Tooth actually agreed to Gu Qingxun's suggestion after being stunned for a moment. "Is Sect Master Gu really willing to give me such a chance? How can I, Daoist Cloud Tooth, not know what's good for me? I'll acknowledge you as my master right now …"
Before he finished speaking, Daoist Cloud Tooth had already performed the ceremony of worshipping Gu Qingxun as his master. His actions were so swift that the people of Immortal Abode Island were dumbfounded. Who would have thought that Daoist Cloud Tooth would be so straightforward? The dignified Sect Master of Immortal Abode Island actually worshipped the enemy as his master. It was simply incomprehensible! However, from another perspective, if anyone could worship Gu Qingxun, the future leader of one of the three immortal mountains, as their master, wouldn't it be something worth showing off?
Therefore, whether it was good or bad depended on one's perspective.
Daoist Cloud Tooth also knew that he could no longer secure his position as the Sect Master of Immortal Abode Island, which meant that he had completely lost the qualification to compete for the leader position of the three immortal mountains. He was already in despair, but Gu Qingxun's sudden suggestion made Daoist Cloud Tooth feel like he had seen a completely different path, and it was a feasible one —
It was already great that he could start all over again!
If he took the initiative to give up the position of the Sect Master of Immortal Abode Island, he could gain the praise of all the cultivators on Immortal Abode Island, and at least he wouldn't have to bear the blame. After all, the alliance of the three mountains was already inevitable, and Daoist Cloud Tooth couldn't and shouldn't stop the trend no matter what. If he gave up the position of the Sect Master of Immortal Abode Island, he could worship Gu Qingxun as his master, and he would have the opportunity to learn the cultivation techniques of Mount Penglai, Mount Yuanliu, and Mount Fangzhang from Gu Qingxun. By then, Daoist Cloud Tooth would be able to learn from them, and he would definitely be able to rise in power among the three immortal mountains. Although he was slightly older, as a cultivator and an immortal, who would really care about someone else's age?
Daoist Cloud Tooth could be considered a smart person, so he immediately figured out the crux of the matter. Most importantly, he saw an opportunity, which meant that he had found a goal to strive for. For someone like Daoist Cloud Tooth, losing his ideals and goals was the scariest thing. Therefore, although it was somewhat embarrassing to worship Gu Qingxun as his master, many people would immediately understand that Daoist Cloud Tooth had made a good move after thinking it through. As a cultivator, being able to endure humiliation was also a form of cultivation. If Daoist Cloud Tooth could really become the Sect Master of one of the three immortal mountains in the future, it would definitely become a much-told story.
