The old Taoist priest's words made all the Immortals on the deck blush with shame. They wanted to retort, but they didn't know what to say.
Indeed, they did not dare to make a move against Gu Qingfeng.
There were three reasons.
First.
They had all heard that Gu Qingfeng had killed a Blue Horned Beast with a light wave of his hand in the Golden Sun Heavenly Region.
It was said that the Blue Horned Beast was so powerful that it was comparable to a Perfected Nine Luminaries Golden Immortal.
Although they were all Spirit Immortals of the Great Wilderness and had been blessed by the Nine Heavens, none of them had the ability to kill a Blue Horned Beast.
That was only the first reason.
The second reason was because of Fairy Cloudy Mist.
They all knew that Fairy Cloudy Mist's existence was not to be underestimated. She might even be more terrifying than they had imagined. Mo Baiyu also thought so. However, such an existence not only ignored Mo Baiyu, who had inherited the Immortal Dao's edict, but also obeyed Gu Qingfeng.
The third reason.
It was because of the various legends about the Exalted Ones.
It was said that the Exalted Ones were all extremely powerful and omnipotent. They could do anything in the world.
Also, Gu Qingfeng had always looked relaxed, as if he was fearless. This made them feel unsure.
Most importantly, Mo Baiyu, who had accepted the Immortal Dao Edict, had not said a single word, not even a single word.
They didn't dare to act rashly.
Most of these Immortals had cultivated for tens of thousands of years. They knew that the vast wilderness was full of mysteries and was full of unknowns. Moreover, in the Modern Era, all living things were recovering. Various ancient mighty figures of the Great Dao were awakening and returning. Even the Ultimate Ruins had collapsed. Who knows how many terrifying existences had come into being.
They were also afraid of provoking someone they shouldn't provoke.
It was important to protect the dignity of the Immortal Dao, but if they provoked someone they shouldn't provoke and lost their lives, it wouldn't be worth it.
If they didn't attack, they would just lose face.
However, if they attacked and lost, it wouldn't be as simple as losing face.
"Old Taoist priest, you're stirring up trouble!"
Gu Qingfeng sat on a chair and looked at the old Taoist priest with a smile. He said, "Why? Are you here to watch the show?"
"Kid, as you said just now, you can drink as you like, but you can't speak as you please. When have I stirred up trouble? When have I been here to watch the show? I was just joking when I saw that the atmosphere was gloomy just now. I just wanted to liven up the atmosphere. Did you all take it seriously? You can't take it seriously.
This old Daoist was really evil. He looked at the group of Immortals and said, "Especially you guys, please don't take it to heart. This old Daoist was really just joking and didn't mean anything else. I just wanted to liven up the atmosphere, that's all. How about this, this old Daoist will punish himself by drinking three cups as an apology."
With that, the old Taoist priest imitated Gu Qingfeng and poured three cups of wine for himself.
This action seemed to be imitating Gu Qingfeng, but … it was more like mockery. It was mocking Gu Qingfeng for not daring to admit what he had done, and also mocking the immortals standing on the deck for being a bunch of cowards.
At this moment.
Mo Baiyu who had been silent all this time finally opened his mouth and said, "I should be the one advising all of you not to take it seriously. Since all of you have boarded this Profound Sky Ship, then you are my, Mo Baiyu's, guests. Even though I am an Exalted Immortal who has received the Immortal Dao's decree, I am also the master of this Profound Sky Ship. Leading all of you safely to your destination is my, Mo Baiyu's, mission and duty. As for other trivial matters, I will not interfere too much.
As he spoke, he walked to a table at the side. When he raised his hand, a crystal wine jug appeared in his hand. He poured himself a cup of wine and said, "Although we talk about the Immortal Dao, it is far from offending the dignity of the Immortal Dao. At least, in my opinion, it is not. After all, we are neither Buddhas nor Saints. We cannot treat the four elements as nothing. Everyone has a time when they talk nonsense. Moreover, even Buddhas have wine and meat passing through their intestines, but the Buddha Lord still leaves a mark in his heart."
He changed the topic.
Mo Baiyu looked at Gu Qingfeng again and said lightly, "But … I still advise you not to make fun of the Immortal Dao. I may not care about these trivial matters, but it doesn't mean other Immortals won't. The saying 'disaster comes from the mouth' has been passed down since ancient times. What's more, there's always someone better than you. Don't think you're so great. You don't know how big the world is."
After saying that.
He gently brought the cup to his mouth and drained it in one gulp. He looked at the old Taoist and said, "Senior, although it's our responsibility to protect the dignity of the Immortal Dao, it's not the same as killing people. That's the behavior of the Devil, not the behavior of Immortals. In my opinion, the most important thing to protect the dignity of the Immortal Dao is to set an example and abide by morality. Benevolence and righteousness are the foundation. Only then can we educate all living beings. That's the real way to protect the dignity of the Immortal Dao."
Mo Baiyu was really worthy of being a Superior Immortal who had received the Immortal Dao's decree.
His words were sonorous and forceful, filled with righteousness and awe-inspiring justice.
Not only did he resolve the awkwardness of the Immortals not daring to make a move, he also took the opportunity to ridicule the old Taoist for making a fuss over nothing.
Of course, he also warned Gu Qingfeng with the words' disaster comes from the mouth '.
His meaning was very simple, and everyone understood it clearly.
Mo Baiyu was the owner of this Profound Sky Ship. His responsibility was to safely escort everyone to their destination.
As for those trivial matters, he didn't know how to do it and didn't want to bother with you.
In particular, his last words were incomparably convincing.
Protecting the dignity of the Immortal Dao was not the same as killing people. That's the behavior of the Devil, not the behavior of Immortals.
The real way to protect the dignity of the Immortal Dao was to set an example and abide by morality. Benevolence and righteousness are the foundation. Only then can we educate all living beings.
What he said was very wonderful.
It was these words that set off Mo Baiyu to be incomparably tall and radiant. He could be called an extraordinary benevolent and righteous gentleman.
At the same time, he also set off the old Taoist to be a despicable and sinister person who looked for trouble.
As for Gu Qingfeng, after hearing these words, he became an ignorant person who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth after getting drunk.
After Mo Baiyu finished speaking, the deck immediately resounded with warm applause.
Even Gu Qingfeng couldn't help but clap and cheer. Looking at the somewhat embarrassed old Taoist, he said with a smile, "Old Taoist, take a good look and listen carefully. Look at his bearing, and look at yourself. In the future, don't look for trouble when you have nothing to do, lest you get scolded."
The old Taoist fiercely glared at Gu Qingfeng. Then, he looked at Mo Baiyu in a very bad mood and muttered, "Little bastard, you really know how to shout!"
Looking at Gu Qingfeng who was taking pleasure in his misfortune, the old Taoist sneered and said, "Brat, what are you so happy about? Can't you hear it? That bastard is also mocking you for not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth. "
