"Oh, isn't this sister Su? What a coincidence."
Seeing Su'Er, Gu Qingfeng was not surprised at all. He looked around and casually found a pavilion at the foot of the Shang Qing Sect's mountain and sat down.
"Coincidence? I've been looking for you. "
Su'Er also came to the pavilion and asked, "When did you come?"
"Some days."
Gu Qingfeng took out a jar of wine and drank it while looking at the endless stream of Immortals at the foot of the Shang Qing Sect's mountain.
"Did you come to the Shang Qing Sect this time to see your master, Senior Zhen Jue?"
"Why, can't I?"
"That's not what I meant." Su'Er hesitated for a moment and finally decided to say it, "Senior Zhen Jue is not in the Shang Qing Sect now."
"Not here?"
Hearing this, Gu Qingfeng retracted his gaze and looked at Su'Er, asking, "Why did I hear that the old man has been living in seclusion in the back mountain of the Shang Qing Sect?"
"He used to be, but not long ago, Senior Zhen Jue entered the Shang Qing Tower."
"Shang Qing Tower?"
Gu Qingfeng had cultivated in the Shang Qing Sect before and naturally knew that the Shang Qing Tower was the tower of inheritance of the Shang Qing Sect, also known as the Haotian Exquisite Pagoda. It was a treasure of heaven and earth. It was said that it contained the power of Haotian, which was extremely terrifying. At the same time, it also contained the mystery of Heaven and Earth. If one could comprehend it, even if it was just a superficial knowledge, it would be immensely beneficial.
However.
The Shang Qing Tower had always been controlled by the Sect Master alone, and only the Sect Master of the Shang Qing Sect was qualified to enter the tower.
Thinking of this.
Gu Qingfeng vaguely had a bad feeling and asked, "Why would the old man enter the Shang Qing Tower for no reason?"
Su'Er opened her mouth and stopped talking.
"Is it because of Ye Tianlan?"
"It's not clear yet. I don't know whether Senior Zhen Jue is deliberately hiding from you or the female sect Ye Tianlan …"
Don't say that Su'Er didn't know.
After hearing the news, Gu Qingfeng also fell into deep thought. He also couldn't figure out whether his master entered the Shang Qing Pagoda because he didn't want to see Gu Qingfeng or if Ye Tianlan did it on purpose. After thinking about it, it seemed to be possible. If his master didn't want to see him, Gu Qingfeng could understand. If Ye Tianlan did it on purpose, Gu Qingfeng also felt that that woman would definitely do such a thing.
After a moment of silence, Su 'Er asked, "What … do you plan to do?"
"There's nothing we can do. Since the Old Master is in the Pure Pagoda, let's just wait. Didn't they say that Ye Tianlan would come out at sunset? Counting the days, it's only a few days away."
Su 'Er glanced at Gu Qingfeng with some surprise. Based on her understanding of Gu Qingfeng, she thought that he would find a way to directly break into the Shang Qing Tower. She did not expect that Gu Qingfeng would actually say that he would wait for Ye Tianlan to come out of seclusion.
"In this way, you will meet the female sect leader. The reason why she came out of seclusion this time should be to target you. Didn't you say … you don't want to see her again?"
"I don't want to see her again, but can I avoid it?"
Gu Qingfeng knew very well that if he wanted to see his master in the Shang Qing Sect, he could not avoid the female sect leader Ye Tianlan no matter what. Even if he could avoid it this time, he could not avoid it the next time. Since he could not avoid it, he might as well not do so.
"There's one thing I want to ask you. Do you know about the visiting card?"
"I heard about it."
"Do you know who sent it?"
"You ask me, but who should I ask?"
"Aren't you worried at all?"
"Worried about what?"
"After the news of the visiting card spread, now the people of all the major sects and masters have gathered in the Shang Qing Sect. Nominally, they are here to welcome the female sect leader out of seclusion, but in fact, they are here for you. Just yesterday, a large group of sect leaders were still in the Shang Qing Sect discussing how to seek justice from you."
"Seek justice from me?" Gu Qingfeng smiled and said, "Seek justice for what?"
"In the ancient times, other than the Shang Qing Sect, you have almost annihilated all the major sects. Now that they know that you are back, they will definitely seek justice from you."
"What a bunch of troublemakers." Gu Qingfeng laughed and scolded, "It's all a matter of god knows how long ago. Those bastards still remember it."
After drinking a cup of wine, Gu Qingfeng seemed to have thought of something interesting and asked, "They are all in the Shang Qing Sect now? Who are they? "
Hearing this, Su'Er's heart skipped a beat. She stared at Gu Qingfeng cautiously and asked, "You … What do you want to do? Don't misunderstand. They are only here to discuss this matter with the Shang Qing Sect, but the Shang Qing Sect did not agree. Moreover, Yunduan has already issued a decree, forbidding Sengoku from having any conflicts with you. Since Sengoku and the Shang Qing Sect will not appear, the other major sects will not dare to act rashly. "
"Sister, what are you thinking? Do you think I am looking for a fight with them? What? Do I look like the kind of person who would cause trouble? Don't worry, I am an honest person. I have never caused trouble and I have stopped killing long ago. "
These words coming out of Gu Qingfeng's mouth, to Su'Er, no matter how she heard it, it sounded ridiculous and ironic. It felt like a demon who was full of evil was holding a human head while eating the heart, smiling and telling everyone that he was a kind person. It was ridiculous and ironic.
"Then why are you asking them?"
"Just as you said, back then, other than the Shang Qing Sect, I annihilated all the other major sects. Although it was completely out of my control back then and if I didn't kill them, they would have killed me. But in the end, I did kill many people back then and committed many sins. This is a fact that no one can deny. Since they are still holding a grudge over what happened back then, let's take this opportunity to end it."
"End it? How do you want to end it? "
"Just an apology. What else could it be?"
"Apologize? You? "
Su'Er was shocked. She didn't think that the words "apologize" would come out of Gu Qingfeng's mouth. Based on her understanding of Gu Qingfeng, she knew that this guy would always admit his mistakes but would never admit his mistakes. Apologize? This guy has been running wild in this world for more than 200 years. How many people has he killed? How many sins has he committed? Since when had he ever apologized to anyone?
Never!
Not even once!
Even back then, Zhen Jue destroyed his own cultivation for him and then killed himself to atone for his sins. This guy never admitted his mistakes.
Back then, this guy would rather risk his life to cut off the Heavenly River and send down spiritual rain to the world to express his apology. But he never apologized to anyone in the world.
Gu Qingfeng exclaimed, "People change. In the past, I was young and immature. Now that I have experienced so much, I naturally realized that my sins back then were too heavy. Even though the people I killed back then were those who wanted to kill me, many innocent people were also implicated. If possible, I would like to atone for my sins and apologize to everyone in the world. I hope everyone can forgive me."
Gu Qingfeng spoke very sincerely, as if he was speaking from the bottom of his heart. But Su'Er was still suspicious.
Just at this moment, someone in the crowd shouted out that he was the Scarlet Firmament Sovereign King. Instantly, it caused a commotion.
