When Gu Qingfeng was building his foundation, Huo De didn't know why the sky was covered with dark clouds and thunder. Huo De also didn't know why there were spiritual changes in nature in the surrounding area, but he was sure that it definitely had something to do with Gu Qingfeng.
In Huo De's opinion, only Gu Qingfeng could cause such a big commotion. No one else had this ability, nor did they have this ability.
As expected.
Gu Qingfeng took a sip of wine and nodded, admitting it.
"I knew it was you!" Huo De hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"
"You won't understand even if I tell you."
"How can I understand if you don't tell me, brat?"
"Do you know the laws of nature?" Gu Qingfeng asked.
Huo De's face turned red. He opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. Even though he had cultivated for seven or eight hundred years, he was only a Perfected Golden Core. He didn't even understand immortal arts, nor did he know what divine abilities were. How could he understand the laws of nature, something that even the immortals of the Heaven Realm didn't understand?
"Do you know how many layers of mysteries there are in nature?"
"What are the mysteries of each layer? Do you know?"
Gu Qingfeng said a lot, but Huo De didn't know a single word. This wasn't the first time he was embarrassed. Ever since Gu Qingfeng left Yunxia School, he didn't understand what had happened to Gu Qingfeng. It wasn't that his knowledge was shallow. In fact, after Gu Qingfeng left Yunxia School, he advanced a small realm in three days, a big realm in half a month, and a stage in one year. Yesterday, he might have only opened the Purple Palace. Tomorrow, he might have formed the Golden Core. A year ago, he was just a freakish Perfected Person, and a year later, he was a famous Dao Lord who killed people like flies.
Today, his martial arts were profound. Tomorrow, his spells were transformative.
Today, he would play with immortal fate. Tomorrow, he would comprehend a divine ability and study it.
When he built his foundation, he could turn an entire realm into a sea of fire.
In his true form, he could shine with boundless golden light.
Violet Palace. His entire body could be opened to the Violet Palace Realm.
He could condense a total of eighty-one Gold Cores at once …
After thinking about it carefully, Huo De realized that he had once made a vow that he would never ask about Gu Qingfeng's situation again. It was not that he did not want to ask, nor was it that Gu Qingfeng did not want to talk about it. It was just that even if Gu Qingfeng said it, he would not understand.
However, this wasn't the reason why he had made the vow. The real reason was that every time he asked about Gu Qingfeng's situation, he would suffer a huge blow and feel that his life was gloomy. They were both humans, but the gap between them was too big. His heart couldn't accept it. It was a cruel blow to his spirit, confidence, and self-esteem.
This wasn't the first time that Huo De had been provoked by Gu Qingfeng. As for how many times he had been provoked, he couldn't remember. He had been provoked to the point that he was numb. He couldn't compare himself to Little Guy Gu. Compared to him, even if you were a god, you would still be provoked to death.
This wasn't exaggerated, but it wasn't outrageous either.
Back then, the guy who was known as the number one genius of this world had attracted a heavenly omen when he was born. Not only did it alarm Sengoku, even the immortals of the Heaven Realm personally descended. Nature showered him with boundless red … However, it was useless. Later on, he was still beaten up by Little Guy Gu every time he saw him. In three days, he was beaten up until his head was bleeding. In ten days, his dantian was ruptured. In one year, he was beaten up by Gu Qingfeng hundreds of times until his entire body was covered in injuries …
When he thought about this, he saw that Gu Qingfeng was about to say something. Huo De quickly waved his hand and drank a bowl of wine. He glared at Gu Qingfeng with extreme disdain and said angrily, "Enough, ancestor. I know that you are awesome. I won't ask anymore, okay?"
"Hahaha!"
Gu Qingfeng leaned back in his chair and laughed heartily. Perhaps it was because he had been tortured by Huo De when he was young. In the past, every time he saw Huo De, he would always feel excited. Every time he saw this old fellow's unhappy and helpless expression, Gu Qingfeng couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Damn it! I only tricked you into experimenting with a few formations when you were young. You actually remembered it all this time. You're not happy if you don't stimulate me every time, right? "
Gu Qingfeng shrugged and replied, "You're the one who asked, okay?"
"I …"
Huo De was speechless. He could only blame himself for being too curious. Every time something happened to Gu Qingfeng, he wanted to understand. However, he never understood, not even once. Regarding this, Huo De helplessly sighed. He swore that he would never ask again … If he did, he would tear his mouth apart.
"That's right, Huo De, I have something to ask you." Gu Qingfeng thought of the Flaming Sun's Heart. When he asked, Huo De unhappily said, "Why are you asking about the Flaming Sun's Heart? You're so awesome that even the heavens can't judge you. Why would you care about a broken stone? "
"Alright, I'm serious. I'm not joking with you. Is the Flaming Sun's Heart still in your hands?"
"No." Huo De shook his head and replied, "The three elders gave it away."
"Gave it away?" Gu Qingfeng was startled. He sat up and asked, "Who did you give it to?"
"The Jiuhua Alliance. Who else could you give it to?" Seeing that Gu Qingfeng's serious expression didn't seem to be joking, Huo De asked, "Why are you asking about the Flaming Sun's Heart all of a sudden? That thing isn't useful to you, is it? "
The Flaming Sun's Heart used to be Yunxia School's most precious treasure. It was also a treasure passed down from the founder.
It was said to be the most precious treasure of the sect, but this thing had been passed down from generation to generation. As for what it was used for, no one had been able to understand it for thousands of years. If it weren't for the fact that Gu Qingfeng's physique had been changed by the Heart of the Flaming Sun, Huo De might have thought that this thing was just a broken stone.
Unfortunately, not everyone was so lucky. For thousands of years, other than Gu Qingfeng, there was only one other woman who had been purified by the Flaming Sun's Heart. As for other people, there was no one else … Huo De studied it for half his life, but he still couldn't figure it out.
"Didn't I tell you to keep the Flaming Sun's Heart? Why did you ask the three elders to give it away? "
To be honest, Gu Qingfeng didn't know what the Flaming Sun's Heart was. He was still young back then, so he didn't know what had happened before he was cleansed by the Flaming Sun's Heart. Too much time had passed, so he couldn't remember what had happened.
"What do you mean I asked the three elders to give it away? If the three elders wanted to give it away, how could I stop them? I can't beat them, and my seniority isn't as high as theirs. " Huo De rolled his eyes and said, "Besides, after the catastrophe, I heard that someone from the Jiuhua Alliance wanted to borrow the Flaming Sun's Heart from our Yunxia School. He said that he would return it after a hundred years."
"Who borrowed it?"
"I don't know what that person's name is, but everyone calls him Old Man Rong. He's one of the elders of the Jiuhua Alliance, and …" Huo De thought carefully for a while and said, "I'm not sure who that old man is. I've never seen or heard of him before, but he should be very powerful. After the Three Elders Of Yunxia gave the Flaming Sun's Heart to him, it didn't take long for him to successfully pass his Life Tribulation. Think about it, if someone could help the three elders pass their Life Tribulation, would that Old Man Rong be an ordinary person?"
"Why would he want to borrow the Flaming Sun's Heart from Yunxia School?" Although Gu Qingfeng couldn't remember what happened when he was young, based on his experience, the Flaming Sun's Heart was definitely not an ordinary item. It might have some other secrets, but ordinary people wouldn't be able to see through them.
Since Old Man Rong of the Jiuhua Alliance wanted to borrow the Flaming Sun's Heart, could he have seen through it?
Huo De shook his head and replied, "I'm not sure about this either."
Gu Qingfeng muttered to himself for a moment. He raised a glass of wine to his lips and furrowed his brows as he pondered. Then, he asked, "What did Old Man Rong do after he borrowed it?"
"I'm not sure. Old Man Rong has been in seclusion for several decades, right? The hundred-year period is almost up. When he borrowed it, he said that he would return it in a hundred years. I think he should come out of seclusion by then. "
Gu Qingfeng pondered. Since the Flaming Sun's Heart was the source of the first turning point in his life, it was also the first karmic branch. In other words, anyone related to the Flaming Sun's Heart would more or less have karma with him. Thinking of this, he asked.
"After I left, was there anyone else who was purified by the Flaming Sun's Heart?"
"This …" Huo De seemed to be a little hesitant.
"What's wrong?"
Huo De took a sip of wine and secretly glanced at Gu Qingfeng. Then, he grinned and said, "This, Little Guy Gu, I still have something to do …"
Huo De was obviously looking for an excuse to leave. But just as he was about to leave, Gu Qingfeng stood up and put a hand on his shoulder. He said seriously, "Huo De, this is very important to me. Don't hide it. If there's anything you want to say, say it."
"This … Little Guy Gu, it's not that I don't want to say it. I'm just afraid that if I say it, it will bring back some sad memories."
Sad memories?
Gu Qingfeng thought for a moment. He didn't have any sad memories in Yunxia School.
If he did, it would be his first love when he was young and frivolous.
Just as he was thinking, Gu Qingfeng suddenly thought of a name. He remembered the sad memories that Huo De mentioned just now. Could it be …
Gu Qingfeng asked uncertainly, "After I left, could it be that Hong Xiu was also purified by the Flaming Sun's Fire?"
