Ardent Wind Laoguai was no longer Ardent Wind Laoguai. Every inch of his skin was covered with ants and leeches. He was still screaming and cursing. When Gu Qingfeng let go of his hand, Laoguai seemed to be able to move again. With a bang, he jumped into the air, waving his arms and kicking his legs as he ran wildly.
"Ah!"
"Gu Tianlang! You ungrateful and heartless bastard! "
"And that bastard with the surname Gu! I won't let you go even if I become a ghost! "
"Ah!!!"
In the forest of the swamp, seeing Laoguai frantically waving his limbs like a landlubber in the sea, Gu Qingfeng couldn't help but laugh out loud. Only when Ardent Wind Laoguai ran out of sight did he recover. He took a sip of wine and laughed.
"Ardent Wind, oh Ardent Wind, you old bastard, I should have let you have a taste of being tortured."
"Oh, your bones are quite tough. You didn't even beg for mercy. But …"
Gu Qingfeng shook his head and said with a smile, "I really want to see how you will thank me when you come to your senses in a few days."
He said that he was torturing Laoguai to take revenge for being tortured in the past.
That was indeed the case.
However …
At the same time of torturing, Gu Qingfeng was helping him, enlightening him and also helping him to transform his Primordial Spirit. While taking revenge, he was also repaying the favor. After all, it was all thanks to Laoguai that he was able to successfully condense his Nascent Soul.
When they were fighting, Gu Qingfeng could already see that Laoguai's Primordial Spirit was especially thick and purer than ordinary people. In addition, this old bastard walked the path of strength. Not only was his Primordial Spirit pure and thick, it was also more ferocious.
It could be said that Laoguai's foundation was very good. There was no problem for him to transform his Primordial Spirit.
Unfortunately, this old fellow had made the same mistake as many others, and that was to worry too much.
Once there were misgivings, as time passed, there would only be more and more misgivings. Over time, they would not dare to take this step again.
Many cultivators in this world were like that.
Especially as one's cultivation increased, one's worries would become greater and greater. After all, if one made a single mistake, they would lose everything. In other words, thousands of years of hard work would go down the drain. If it was anyone else, they would be worried about their gains and losses.
In short, there was only one sentence.
Cultivation was not easy.
It was even harder to survive.
He looked at the sky.
The sun had already risen.
Gu Qingfeng didn't stop. After finishing the jug of wine, he also left the swamp.
But not long after he left.
Two figures appeared in this swampy forest.
One of them was a woman dressed in a white robe. She was dignified and beautiful.
It was Immortal Official An Ran, who had been scared away by Gu Qingfeng.
The other was none other than the mysterious woman who had reincarnated and carried the black cat.
An Ran's beautiful face was still in a state of shock. She released her Divine Perception and scanned the area. She didn't find Gu Qingfeng's figure, nor did she find Laoguai's figure. She asked softly, "Where is Laoguai?"
The woman carrying the black cat shook her head slightly. She didn't seem to know either.
"Is he really the Childe Chiyan who had turned the four major domains upside down three years ago?"
The woman carrying the black cat looked into the distance. After a long time, she muttered, "Maybe."
"Maybe?" An Ran didn't expect her to say that.
"A person who had turned into ashes and was once dead. Now that he has come back from the dead, I can't be sure."
"Then is he really the successor of King Chixiao?"
An Ran asked again. The woman carrying the black cat muttered again, "Maybe."
This time, An Ran was not surprised.
Indeed.
There were countless scammers who pretended to be the successor of King Chixiao. Among them, there were many who pretended to be King Chixiao himself. Even the people around the King back then couldn't tell the difference. Who else could?
"Is Sengoku going to make a move against the Great Northwest?"
The woman hugging the black cat asked.
An Ran hesitated for a moment before nodding.
"To eradicate the deficit?"
"Not just the Great Northwest, but the entire Great Northwest."
"To prepare for Tianming?"
"Tianming?" An Ran was surprised. She asked, "Why do you think so?"
The woman carrying the black cat closed her eyes and said faintly, "A hundred years have passed since ancient times. It's time for Tianming to emerge."
"Then why are you so sure that Tianming will appear in the Great Northwest?"
"I'm not sure. It's just a guess. Sengoku can't be sure either. That's why they're making preparations."
"If Tianming really appears in the Great Northwest, will you fight for it?"
The mysterious woman shook her head. It wasn't clear if her answer was "no" or "I don't know."
An Ran didn't dwell on this question. She asked, "Can you tell me how many people like you have reincarnated in the Great Northwest?"
"A lot."
"How many is a lot? Are there more reincarnated people than those cultivating in Immortal Abode? "
"I don't know."
The mysterious woman asked, "Wan Huaiyu and Qin Hao are cultivating in Immortal Abode, right?"
An Ran nodded. "Do you want to see them? I can take you there. "
"No need."
The mysterious woman seemed to want to leave, but then she thought of something and said, "Thank you for last time."
"You're too polite." An Ran smiled faintly. "I still don't know your name."
"Call me Ruying."
"Ruying?" An Ran blinked her beautiful eyes and smiled. "What a nice name. It suits you very well."
"It's just a name."
The mysterious woman called Ruying looked at An Ran and said softly and seriously, "If possible, try not to get involved in the Great Northwest."
An Ran didn't understand. "Why?"
"You saw the reason just now."
"You're talking about that Childe Chiyan?" At the mention of Gu Qingfeng, An Ran's expression became somewhat unnatural. Her long, shapely eyebrows slightly furrowed as she said, "He is indeed very mysterious and also very strange. He is mysterious to the point that no one can fathom him. He is so strange that it causes fear in people's hearts.
"No buts. You can't rely on luck when it comes to someone like him."
An Ran was very surprised. "That can't be. Do you mean he's really King Chixiao's successor? Even if he is, he's just a successor. He's not the real King Chixiao. "
"King Chixiao is King Chixiao after all. The successor he chooses must be extraordinary."
An Ran nodded and said, "King Chixiao's successor might be true, but that Childe Chiyan might not be the real one."
"The Celestial Dynasty can afford to gamble, but you might not be able to. Besides, if he's real, it's already very terrifying." Ru Ying murmured, "If he's not real, then it's not as simple as terrifying."
Ruying's words were very strange. At least, An Ran didn't understand. She thought for a long time but still couldn't understand. She asked, "Why?"
"It's just a feeling. I hope it's just a feeling. Otherwise …"
Ruying shook her head and murmured, "I hope it's not. Otherwise …"
