Gu Qingfeng was drinking wine while chatting with Nalan Qianqiu. The atmosphere was quite good.
"Emperor You, can I ask you something?"
Nalan Qianqiu's expression suddenly became serious while Gu Qingfeng was still leisurely and leisurely. He replied, "Sister, why are you being so polite with me? Just ask whatever you want and I'll answer everything I know."
"Alright." Nalan Qianqiu first proposed a toast before asking, "May I know why you came back this time?"
"What do you mean? I don't intend to do anything."
"Then why did you come back?"
"I say, sister, what are you talking about? This is my hometown. Can't I come back to take a look?"
"Don't misunderstand. That's not what I meant."
"Then what do you mean?"
"Everyone in the universe knows about what you did on the Mysterious Heaven Ship a few days ago. You should know about this, right?"
"I know."
"Many people are looking for you. You know that too, right?"
"I heard about it from Huo De, but … I don't understand. Why are they looking for me? Could it be that they want to kill me? "
Nalan Qianqiu glared and said angrily, "What else do you think?"
"It can't be. I don't have that many enemies, right?"
"You were the enemy of the three thousand great daos in the ancient era. How many grotto-heavens have you offended? How many blessed lands have you lost face? How many immortal realms have you massacred? How many clans have you annihilated? They couldn't do anything to you in the ancient era. Now that their ancestors have awakened, they will naturally seek revenge!"
"That's true." Gu Qingfeng nodded and smiled, "Why else would the old saying, 'You have to pay for what you did'?"
"Other than that, the Heaven's Mandate of the modern era are all eager to find you. However, they aren't looking for you for revenge, but to prove themselves. You shook the Great Desolate Continent in the ancient era, so the Heaven's Mandate of the modern era all want to kill you and become famous in the modern era."
"Young people. Who doesn't want to be famous? It's understandable." Gu Qingfeng smiled and said, "Not to mention them, even I sometimes want to kill myself to make a name for myself."
Nalan Qianqiu rolled his eyes at Gu Qingfeng and said, "However, all of this isn't important. What's important is that you're a known Original Sin. Everyone in the universe knows that your existence threatens the Grand Dao of Heaven and Earth and all living beings. So, as long as you show yourself, the consequences are obvious."
After saying this, Nalan Qianqiu was afraid that Gu Qingfeng would misunderstand and hurriedly explained, "Lord You Emperor, please don't misunderstand. I'm not trying to scare you, and I can't scare you. I don't mean anything by saying this. I just want you to know how chaotic the Great Wilderness is right now."
Gu Qingfeng asked indifferently, "So?"
"So …"
Nalan Qianqiu hesitated for a moment and said, "So, I hope that you … can you temporarily lie low and wait for this storm to pass before you come out? This way, you can avoid unnecessary troubles. What do you say?"
"Indeed."
Nalan Qianqiu was pleasantly surprised and said, "You agree?"
"This is not a difficult matter. What reason do I have to refuse? What's more, you're doing this for my own good, aren't you?"
"You …"
Nalan Qianqiu couldn't help but be stunned. He stared at Gu Qingfeng with a very complicated look, as if he couldn't believe it.
Indeed.
This time, she came to the Red Cloud Sect not only for little Jin Er, but also to see Gu Qingfeng. To be exact, the main purpose was to see Gu Qingfeng.
Only when little Jin Er was here, she dared to see Gu Qingfeng.
If little Jin Er didn't come this time, even if Nalan Qianqiu was beaten to death, she wouldn't dare to see Gu Qingfeng.
Because little Jin Er was here, she dared to come and test Gu Qingfeng's attitude, to see if he wanted to break the peace of the Great Wilderness.
And because little Jin Er was here, she dared to persuade Gu Qingfeng to temporarily avoid the limelight.
Before coming, she didn't have much hope because she knew that Gu Qingfeng was a proud and arrogant person. In addition, she didn't have much friendship with him, so she didn't expect to be able to persuade Gu Qingfeng. Originally, she thought that if she couldn't persuade him, she would let Jin Er try.
But she didn't expect that when she casually mentioned it, Gu Qingfeng would actually agree so readily. Nalan Qianqiu couldn't believe it was true.
"You really … agree to avoid it?"
"Avoiding it will save me a lot of trouble. What's wrong with that? It's just that … "
When Nalan Qianqiu heard Gu Qingfeng say 'just that', she immediately became nervous and asked, "Just what? You regret it? "
"It's not that I regret it. Sister, I'll avoid the limelight this time, but what about next time? I still have to avoid the limelight? What about next time? I can't live in secret for the rest of my life, right? What do you think? "
"I didn't ask you to live in secret for the rest of your life. I just hope that you can temporarily avoid it and wait for this storm to blow over."
"Sister Qianqiu, can I ask you something?"
"What is it? Ask away."
"Did Jiu Tian ask you to come this time?"
"I …" Perhaps feeling guilty and nervous, Nalan Qianqiu lowered her head and didn't dare to look into Gu Qingfeng's eyes. She drank a cup of wine and after a while, she nodded and replied, "I know I can't hide it from you. This time, it was Jiu Tian who asked me to come. Don't misunderstand. Jiu Tian asked me to come here just to persuade you, there's no other meaning."
"Jiu Tian wants me to avoid the limelight for a while, right?"
"Yes."
"This matter has spread to everyone in such a short period of time. Jiu Tian should know that someone is fanning the flames behind the scenes, right?"
"That's why we hope that you can avoid the limelight for a while and not be used by others."
"Then tell me, what is the motive of the person behind this? What do they want to use me for? What do they want to achieve? "
"Of course they want to use you to throw the great wilderness into chaos."
"I understand." Gu Qingfeng smiled. "The Immortal Dao of the Nine Heavens finally dominated the world in the modern era. They don't want the great wilderness to fall into chaos. That's why they asked you to persuade me."
Nalan Qianqiu said in a low voice, "That's why they're fanning the flames behind the scenes and spreading this matter to everyone in the universe."
"In other words, the person behind this wants to provoke a conflict between me and the Immortal Dao, right?"
"Yes."
"Then what benefits does the person behind this get?"
"Too many benefits."
"Let's hear it."
"You Emperor, you should know that there are many original sinners in the world, right?"
"I do."
"You should also know that many original sinners want to become the True Lord of Original Sin recorded in the Book of Destiny who ended the modern era and started the Daoless Era, right?"
"I've heard of it."
"When Daoless Mountain descended, you ignited the Fire of Original Sin and awakened the blood of original sin. Many people see you as the future True Lord of Original Sin."
"So?"
"That's why many original sinners want to replace you, especially those terrifying existences in Gui Xu. They've been watching you closely from the shadows."
