When Elder Luo left Gu Zheng's residence and returned to the Ancestral Dragon Main Hall, the original people in the hall were still there.
"How is it, Elder Luo?" Wuchen Zi asked.
After Elder Luo recounted what had happened in detail, the hall immediately became noisy again.
"It seems that this kid is not an absolute stubborn stubble. When it's time to lower his head, he knows how to lower his head."
"It's reasonable to say that this kid has only entered Emei for more than a year. Before that, he was just an ordinary person. Can an ordinary person really become a late-stage fifth level cultivator in more than a year's time? What's more, he even defeated Qing Bo in battle. Even Elder Luo is inferior to him in terms of inner strength! "
"This is really a strange thing. We didn't pay much attention to Emei, this desolate sect. Now that such a character suddenly popped out, we realized that we know too little about him."
"It doesn't make sense! Emei doesn't have the ability to cultivate a person like this. Even Shu Mountain doesn't have such ability! Otherwise, who knows how many Shu Mountain disciples like this will pop out. "
"Take a guess. Why did he come to Kunlun this time? He said that it's about the devil path to report to our Sect Leader, but he also said that he met the devil path people on his way to Kunlun! Then reporting to us about the devil path is not his original intention of coming to our Kunlun! "
"Could it be that he wants to make friends with our Kunlun? If that's the case, he should be very patient in the Dragon Battle Square! "
"It's so troublesome to guess. Wouldn't everything be clear if Sect Leader directly summons that kid?"
Everyone was discussing animatedly. Wuchen Zi, who had been frowning, finally opened his mouth: "Originally, I wanted to summon him, but now it seems that I can't summon him yet. I have to wait until I meet the Grand Elder first."
Kunlun Sect had seven Grand Elders. Among them, the Jade Peak Master was ranked first.
"Sect Leader, why do you have to meet the Grand Elder first?" An elder was puzzled.
"This matter is strange. The more I think about it, the more I feel that something is wrong!"
"What happened in the Dragon Battle Square happened when we couldn't be distracted in the Ancestral Dragon Formation."
"However, the First Supreme Elder and Xuan Qizi at the core of the Ancestral Dragon Formation have some free time, waiting for us to activate the formation."
"Although the formation has the effect of isolating, but with the cultivation of First Grand Elder and Xuan Qizi, they shouldn't be completely unaware of what happened on the Dragon Battle Plaza!"
"Since the First Grand Elder and Xuan Qizi already knew, why didn't anyone come forward to stop it?"
Wuchen Zi paused his analysis and looked at everyone who was deep in thought. Then, he spoke again, "Therefore, I want to wait for the Grand Elder to come out of the Ancestral Dragon Grand Array. I want to see what he thinks before dealing with this matter."
A person who could become a Sect Master was not an ordinary person, especially a big sect like Kunlun. It had to be said that Wuchen Zi's consideration of problems was more meticulous.
Regarding Wu Chen Zi's decision, the group of elders also did not have any objections. Everyone chatted for a while, and then dispersed.
During the day.
Gu Zheng waited for an entire morning, but still did not receive any news from the higher-ups of Kunlun. Although after the incident with Elder Luo last night, Gu Zheng felt that the higher-ups of Kunlun would definitely meet with him soon, he was not too sure about the exact time.
After explaining his whereabouts to the Kunlun Sect disciple in charge of the guest rooms, Gu Zheng, who had nothing to do, went to look for Yang Zhenling.
On the Dragon Battle Square, Gu Zheng had caused Yang Zhenling to fail the deal and had promised to cook him a delicious meal. This time, he came to look for Yang Zhenling to fulfill this promise.
The place where Gu Zheng stayed was not far from the place where the people of the Heaven Will Sect stayed. It did not take long for him to arrive at the residence of the Heaven Will Sect.
"What a rare guest!"
Seeing Gu Zheng's arrival, Yang Zhenling, who was originally practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard, immediately greeted him with a smile.
"Didn't we just meet yesterday? How can you say that I'm a rare guest?" Gu Zheng laughed.
"Yesterday, I saw Fellow Daoist Gu. Today, I saw Sect Leader Gu. How can I not be a rare guest?"
Yang Zhenling also laughed. What she mentioned was Gu Zheng's concealment of his identity.
"I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Yang. At first, because I wasn't familiar with Emei and Kunlun, I didn't want to arouse the criticism of others, so I concealed my identity." Gu Zheng smiled bitterly.
"It's okay. I'm talking to you as a person. Your identity is not too important." Yang Zhenling laughed. "Fellow Daoist Gu, yesterday at the Dragon Battle Square, you were very awe-inspiring. Today, most of the news I heard was about you!"
"I also didn't want to be so awe-inspiring, but I had no choice!"
Gu Zheng's helpless voice had just faded when a hearty laughter suddenly sounded in the house.
"Zhenling, why are you so rude? You only know how to stand in the courtyard and talk with Sect Leader Gu. Don't you know how to invite guests in to sit?"
The owner of the hearty laughter was a strong man with a square face. At this moment, he walked out of the house and looked at Gu Zheng with a warm smile.
"Hehe."
Yang Zhenling scratched her head and laughed. She turned to Gu Zheng and said, "This is the Sect Leader of Tianxin Sect, Yang Yongquan. He's also my uncle."
"Sect Leader Yang, it's an honor to meet you!" Gu Zheng clasped his fists.
"Sect Leader Gu's name has reverberated like thunder in my ears! Quick, come in! "
Yang Yongquan laughed. After clasping his fists at Gu Zheng, he hurriedly made an inviting gesture.
There were other people from Tianxin Sect in the house. Gu Zheng had not seen some of them before, but their strength was not bad. They should be the group of people who came to Kunlun with Yang Yongquan first.
After Yang Yongquan introduced everyone in the house to Gu Zheng, it was inevitable that everyone would exchange pleasantries.
"Fragrant and sweet, good tea!"
Drinking the tea served by the disciples of Tianxin Sect, Gu Zheng sighed with emotion.
"Sect Leader Gu, this is the Misty Wind Island's specialty, the Misty Wind Tea. It's much better than the tea leaves on the market, right?" Yang Zhenling said proudly.
"Indeed, it's much better than the tea leaves on the market. This is also the best tea I've ever tasted."
Gu Zheng wasn't stingy with his evaluation. After all, there were very few tea leaves on the market that were of the ordinary grade. As for the Cloud Mist Tea that had reached the ordinary grade, its taste was definitely top-notch among the ordinary grade tea leaves. Such good tea made Gu Zheng even more determined to visit Foggy Wind Island after he was done with the matters of the Kunlun Realm.
"Misty Wind Tea is different from ordinary tea leaves. It's best when it's fresh. In another month, it would be time to harvest the Misty Wind Tea on Misty Wind Island. If Sect Leader Gu could visit Misty Wind Island at that time, he would definitely be able to taste more fragrant tea. After all, the water used to brew tea here was not very good.
"Alright, if there's nothing else, I do intend to visit Misty Wind Island. I wonder if Sect Leader Yang would welcome me?" Gu Zheng laughed.
"Of course you would be welcome!" Yang Yongquan also smiled. "Sect Leader Gu, take this jade token. This is the symbol of our Misty Wind Island's distinguished guest. When the time comes, as long as Sect Leader Gu arrives at the restaurant mentioned by the True Spirit, there will naturally be a disciple who will send you to Misty Wind Island."
"Sect Leader Yang is so hospitable, it would be impolite for this Gu to refuse!"
Gu Zheng accepted the jade token from Yang Yongquan and smiled slightly. "Sect Leader Yang, I just offended Kunlun Sect yesterday. You are so warm to me, aren't you afraid that Kunlun Sect will blame you?"
"What's there to be afraid of? Sect Leader Gu won fair and square in the Dragon Battle Square. The higher-ups of Kunlun Sect should have nothing to say."
Yang Yongquan's words made Gu Zheng smile slightly, and then he changed the topic. "By the way, why don't I see Tong Rui?"
Gu Zheng saw all the people who came to Kunlun in the room, but Tong Rui, who was wrapped in a robe all day long, was missing.
"Junior Sister Tong's cultivation is still shallow, and she was frightened on the way here. She seems to have caught a cold. After taking medicine yesterday, she slept for most of the day. When she woke up, she was already much better, but she is still sleeping. "Yang Zhenling said helplessly.
"Sect Leader Gu!"
Luo Jin's voice sounded outside the room. The people who came with him were three old men whose cultivation was at the fifth realm.
"Fellow Taoist Luo."
Gu Zheng smiled at Luo Jin who entered the room.
"Sect Leader Mu, I wonder what brings you here?"
Yang Yongquan's originally warm face fell, and he looked at the yellow-robed old man who was the leader of Luo Jin's group.
"Of course I'm not here to see you, Sect Leader Yang. I'm here to pay a visit to Sect Leader Gu!" Sect Leader Mu cupped his fists at Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng returned the greeting. "I'm honored to have Sect Leader Mu visit me in person!"
"Sect Leader Gu, what are you talking about? You helped our Heavenly Spiral Sect on the way here, so I must find a chance to thank you properly."
Sect Leader Mu smiled and then introduced the two elders of the Heavenly Spiral Sect who came with him to Gu Zheng.
"I've told Fellow Taoist Luo before that I killed those people of the Devil Path for myself, so you don't have to thank me again."
Gu Zheng smiled bitterly. He always couldn't stand the enthusiasm of others.
"Sect Leader Gu, I heard that you're going to Foggy Wind Island as a guest. When the time comes, you must come to our Blood Tide Island!"
Sect Leader Mu also gave Gu Zheng a jade token and told Gu Zheng to find a shop at which port, and the people in the shop would send him to Blood Tide Island.
Seeing that everyone in the room seemed to be focusing on him, with the topic of conversation revolving around him, Gu Zheng quickly changed the topic.
"Actually, I'm here this time because I owe Fellow Taoist Yang a meal in the Dragon Battle Square. Since you're all here, I'd like to invite you to try my cooking. However, I didn't bring any ingredients this time. If you have ingredients from Foggy Wind Island or Blood Tide Island, you can take them out and I'll show you my cooking skills. "Gu Zheng said with a smile.
"That's great! I heard that Sect Leader Gu's cooking skills are excellent. I didn't expect to have a chance to taste it so soon! "
"Yes, we're really lucky!"
The two Sect Leaders of the Heavenly Spiral Sect and the Heavenly Spiral Sect were all overjoyed. They immediately ordered their disciples to bring a lot of specialties from the two islands.
"Everyone, please wait a moment. Fellow Taoist Yang will be my assistant."
Gu Zheng asked Yang Zhenling. The two of them took a lot of ingredients and went to the public kitchen in the accommodation area.
After entering the kitchen, Gu Zheng let out a long breath. The atmosphere in the room just now almost made him breathless.
"Fellow Taoist Gu, you seem to be very unaccustomed to other people's enthusiasm!" Yang Zhenling said with a smile.
"Yes, it makes me feel very uncomfortable." Gu Zheng smiled bitterly. "When I visit your Foggy Wind Island in the future, you must not be so enthusiastic anymore. If you're so enthusiastic, I'll be too scared to go."
"Okay, I'll explain it to them later!" Yang Zhenling laughed.
The specialties of the two islands were mostly seafood. The rest were some vegetables and wild fruits.
With Yang Zhenling as his assistant, Gu Zheng displayed his skills. In a short time, he made eight dishes and a soup.
Gu Zheng's cooking skills were naturally unquestionable. The people of the Heavenly Spiral Sect and the Heavenly Spiral Sect ate until their mouths were full of oil. They were shouting that they were not satisfied. In this regard, Gu Zheng could only say that he would satisfy their appetite when he visited the two islands in the future.
After the meal, Gu Zheng did not stay in the Heavenly Spiral Sect's residence for long. He returned to his residence and quietly waited for the higher-ups of the Kunlun Sect to come.
At night.
In the Ancestral Dragon Main Hall, the seven Supreme Elders who had come out of the Ancestral Dragon Formation heard Wuchen Zi's report on the incident at the Dragon Battle Square.
"This Emei Sect's leader is really bold!"
"He's only at the late stage of Level Five and he's so unruly? If he becomes an immortal cultivator, it'll be terrible! "
"If we don't teach this kid a lesson, it seems that he won't put the Kunlun Sect in his eyes."
"In more than a year, his cultivation has reached the late stage of Level Five and his strength is above Qing Bo's. This kid is really a talent!"
"He can win a bet four times in a row? I don't believe it. There must be something fishy about their bet! "
"Unbelievable, this kid seems to have jumped out of a crack in a rock."
After hearing Wuchen Zi's report, the ancestors of the Crown Prince Faction naturally had the most intense reaction among the Supreme Elders.
"First Supreme Elder, have you asked Xuan Qizi about this kid?" The third Supreme Elder of the Kunlun Sect, Qing Fengzi, asked.
"The movement outside that day did disturb me. I also separated my divine sense to check it out."
Master Yu Feng recounted what had happened that day in the Ancestral Dragon Great Array, and then said, "Xuan Qizi thinks highly of this kid, so I didn't let anyone interfere with the bet between them. I also wanted to see who would win and who would lose in the competition between these few youngsters. But I didn't expect that our Kunlun Sect would be completely defeated. This is really a disgrace! "
"No way? Emei Sect has such strength now? "
"How long has it been? How can a fallen sect rise so quickly?"
"No wonder Gu Zheng dares to be so arrogant. It turns out that he has such a big backer behind him!"
"First Supreme Elder, who are the immortal cultivators of the Emei Sect?"
The reactions of the Supreme Elders were very intense. At their level of cultivation, there were very few things that could make them react like this.
"Who are the cultivators of the Emei Sect? I have asked Xuan Qizi this question before. He only told me one of them, but just this one person is enough to make people have no choice but to treat him with caution!" Master Yu Feng said.
"Who is this person?" The fourth Supreme Elder, Long Yanzi, asked.
"Rogue Cultivator * * *."
The indifferent words of the person on Jade Peak caused the group of Grand Elders to explode like thunder.
Who was * * *? He was a veteran immortal cultivator in the late stage of Void Return Realm. His strength could definitely be ranked in the top three in the entire cultivation world. Such a person, who had ignored the invitations of countless sects, was actually staying in Emei Sect. This was really shocking.
Seeing that the Supreme Elders were about to ask again, Master Yu Feng hurriedly waved his hand. "Okay, I don't know the details of this matter. There was no time to talk in the Ancestral Dragon Formation. After leaving the Ancestral Dragon Formation, Xuan Qizi, that old fellow, left in a hurry. I reckon that he is now at Gu Zheng's residence! As for how to deal with this matter, I don't think I need to wait for Gu Zheng to come to see me. Xuan Qizi will probably inform me first. "
"In the Ancestral Dragon Formation, everyone has consumed a lot of energy. Go back and rest! This matter is just a competition between a few juniors. You Supreme Elders don't need to show up. Everything will wait until I talk to Xuan Qizi! "
The words of the Lord of Jade Peak caused the few Grand Elders who originally wanted to go and see Gu Zheng to have no choice but to temporarily suppress this thought.
In Gu Zheng's residence, looking at the sudden arrival of Xuan Qizi, Gu Zheng hurriedly got up and saluted. "Junior greets Supreme Elder!"
Xuan Qizi stretched out his hand and lifted Gu Zheng who was saluting. Then, with a wave of his hand, he set up a restriction that could isolate prying eyes in the room. Only then did he look at Gu Zheng with a smile.
"Little Zhengzi, you're not bad! Tell me, what did you win in the bet? "Xuan Qizi laughed.
Gu Zheng recounted what happened after he came to Kunlun. He thought that Xuan Qizi might say a few words, but he didn't expect Xuan Qizi to laugh happily.
"Good, well done! For so many years, Kunlun has been suppressing our Shushan. This year, in the competition between the younger generation of Kunlun Sect, their Kunlun was completely defeated. I really want to know what kind of expression Master Yu Feng will have when he sees me later! "
"Supreme Elder, isn't this considered causing trouble? Will it bring any trouble to Shushan? "
"No, this isn't causing trouble, and it won't bring any trouble to Shushan. You won in front of everyone's eyes. You won fair and square. Even if they want to get angry, they have to find a reason, right? Besides, now is different from the past. The devil path is restless, and the light on the Kunlun Divine Stone is extremely unstable. Something big may happen in the world. As the representatives of the righteous path, Kunlun and Shushan can't wait to unite. How can there be any internal strife! "
"Supreme Elder, from what you said just now, you're going to see Master Yu Feng later?"
"Of course, after leaving the Ancestral Dragon Formation, I came straight to your place. Because of my words, other than being extremely curious about you, Yu Feng also had a lot of misgivings. Otherwise, based on the fact that you had bullied others at their doorstep, it would be really strange if the Grand Elder of Kunlun Sect did not come looking for you! After leaving your place, I'm going to see Master Yu Feng. Regarding the matter at the Dragon Battle Plaza, although we don't lose reason, we still have to have an explanation. "
"Thank you, Supreme Elder. If it wasn't for Supreme Elder delaying, this matter might be very troublesome."
"Haha … You chose to come over when I was in Kunlun. Didn't you treat me as your support? Tell me, why did you come to Kunlun this time? "
Xuan Qizi was wrong. Gu Zheng came over after receiving a mission, but Gu Zheng naturally wouldn't correct him.
"It's like this. Some time ago, I saw my master. He also felt that something big was going to happen in the world. He asked me to take a look at the Kunlun Divine Stone and report the details to him."
Gu Zheng lied, but Xuan Qizi's eyes lit up. "You saw your master again? In other words, when you return from Kunlun this time, you will see him again? Did you pass on the matter I told you last time in Shu Mountain to your master? "
In Xuan Qizi's heart, Gu Zheng's master was an extraordinary person. Being able to pass on cultivation with a finger meant that his cultivation was at least in the Void Return realm. And what was even more inconceivable was that he should be an Immortal Chef who had long disappeared in history!
Last time in Shu Mountain, Xuan Qizi did tell Gu Zheng that he wanted him to pass a message to his master. It was nothing more than wanting to see his master, or leave a contact information, so that he could contact him when necessary.
