What was puzzling was that after Bai Susu arrived, she ignored the pleas of Dan Shou and the rest of the people from the Secret Realm of Lotus. She also ignored Qing Lu and the other seniors from the Court of Guardians. Even Fairy Hua Die and Mu Lingyao who were like sisters to her, Bai Susu only nodded and did not say anything else.
Instead, she walked directly to the Nine-Headed Scarlet Flaming Tiger carriage. Everyone thought that Bai Susu was going to seek justice for the people from the Secret Realm of Lotus. Even Fairy Hua Die and Mu Lingyao thought so.
However.
To everyone's surprise, when Bai Susu walked to the front of the Nine-headed Scarlet Flaming Tiger Chariot, she actually bowed slightly and said, "Greetings, First Master. I am Bai Susu."
As soon as Bai Susu bowed, the noisy crowd immediately fell silent.
Dan Shou and the others were dumbfounded. Qing Lu and the rest of the Court of Guardians were dumbfounded. Fairy Hua Die and Mu Lingyao were even more dumbfounded.
Everyone knew that Bai Susu was a Supreme Immortal conferred by the Nine Heavens. Her status was as noble as it could be. No matter if you were the head of an immortal family, a senior who had cultivated for many years, or even the owner of a secret realm, you would have to respectfully call Bai Susu a Supreme Immortal.
But now.
Not only did such a noble Celestial Immortal bow to a mortal, she even humbly referred to herself as a little girl and respectfully referred to the other party as Master.
Why?
It was difficult for Bai Susu to be afraid of this mortal Master's unfathomable strength. This did not make sense. Bai Susu was the law enforcer of the Wind Moon Small World. She controlled the world's laws. In other words, she was the ruler of the Wind Moon Small World. No matter how powerful you were, it was useless.
How could she be afraid of his strength?
But if she was not afraid of his strength, then why?
Did Bai Susu know his identity?
This did not make sense.
Not to mention that he had lost all his cultivation and was no longer a Master. Even if he was a Master in the past, with Bai Susu's Supreme Immortal status, there was no need for her to bow.
What was going on?
No one knew.
So everyone was extremely shocked.
However.
What was even more unbelievable was that even after Bai Susu bowed to him, the mortal master still sat on the chair and ate the Bitter Bodhi. He tilted his head and looked at Bai Susu with narrowed eyes. His expression was indescribably calm, as if he didn't care whether Bai Susu bowed or not.
After a while, he said in a neutral tone, "Oh, isn't this Sister Bai?"
Judging from their voices, the two of them knew each other?
When did they meet?
Others might not know, but Qian Ling clearly knew that Gu Qingfeng had never been to the Wind Moon Pocket World before this. This was his first time, and he had been with her since he came to the Wind Moon Pocket World. How did he know Bai Susu?
Qian Ling could not figure it out.
"What? Are you going to seek justice for them?"
"No."
Bai Susu shook her head and said, "Please don't misunderstand, First Old Master. They deserved it. First Old Master is already being merciful by not killing them."
This time, Dan Shou and the others were in complete despair.
When Bai Susu appeared, hope was ignited in their hearts. They knew that as long as Bai Susu showed up, she would definitely seek justice for them. But they did not expect that after Bai Susu arrived, not only did she not seek justice for them, she was even respectful to the mortal master.
"Then what are you doing here?"
As Gu Qingfeng's voice fell, everyone was very curious. If Bai Susu was not here to seek justice for the people of the Secret Realm of Lotus, then why was she here?
"First Old Master ascended to the 81st level of the Golden Pagoda and won ten trillion in prize money. I'm here to deliver the prize money to First Old Master." As she spoke, Bai Susu walked over, took out a white jade token, and handed it over. She said, "If First Old Master needs immortal stones, you can go to any bank in the Wind Moon Pocket World to withdraw them."
"Oh, it's done so quickly. I thought it would take a few days."
"We don't dare to neglect First Old Master's matter."
If Bai Susu bowed to Gu Qingfeng just now, everyone was still suspicious. But after Bai Susu said this, everyone's suspicions disappeared. From Bai Susu's attitude, everyone could see that Bai Susu was not afraid of this mortal master at all. Instead, she was full of reverence.
Yes.
Reverence.
Reverence and fear.
This made people wonder just what kind of terrifying strength this mortal master possessed, and what kind of background did he have to make Bai Susu, an elder of the Wind Moon Small World, a Celestial Immortal conferred by the Nine Heavens, treat him with such respect.
No one knew the answer to this question, and no one could imagine it.
Sitting on the chair, Gu Qingfeng took a puff of Ling Yan 'er, lowered his head and played with the white jade token in his hand. He smiled and said, "Sister, you're suddenly so nice to me. You're making me feel a little uneasy."
"You're worrying too much, First Old Master. This little girl has already prepared fine wine and delicacies in the pavilion to celebrate First Old Master's ten trillion winnings. Would First Old Master do me the honor?"
"Oh." Gu Qingfeng was a little speechless. He said, "Sister, I didn't know that you're quite good at doing things."
"It's my honor to be able to serve First Old Master."
Gu Qingfeng looked at her and said with a playful smile, "Don't tell me it's the Dragon Gate Formation again like last time?"
Hearing Gu Qingfeng mention last time, Bai Susu's expression changed a little. She seemed a little embarrassed, a little awkward, and a little shy. She raised her head and was about to reply, but when she saw Gu Qingfeng's deep eyes, she immediately lowered her head and said, "Don't worry, First Old Master. This little girl sincerely wants to congratulate First Old Master for winning ten trillion."
"Is that so …"
Gu Qingfeng seemed to be a little suspicious. After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Alright, then let's do it. You know that I like to drink the most, especially the wine that you treat me to. Let's go, don't just stand there."
"First Old Master, please. I'll be right behind you," Bai Susu said. "Little Ya, bring First Old Master to the pavilion first."
Bai Susu's personal maid, Little Ya, nodded and walked over. "First Old Master, let's go. I'll bring you to the pavilion."
Gu Qingfeng snapped his fingers and said, "Old Ma, drive the carriage. Let's go for a drink."
Lord Ma was perhaps the only person present who knew that Gu Qingfeng had met with Bai Susu. As for what Gu Qingfeng and Bai Susu talked about and why Bai Susu was so respectful toward Gu Qingfeng, Lord Ma had no idea. He didn't think too much about it. After jumping onto the carriage, he waved the Firecloud Whip in his hand and drove the carriage away.
