"Supreme Elder, I've told my master about what you told me, but he said that he's already used to living in seclusion and doesn't like to make friends with others. He didn't leave a way to contact him, but he did say that if the chaos he's worried about appears, he'll naturally make a move when it's time."
Gu Zheng's words were a bit straightforward, but Xuan Qizi didn't think much of it. After all, experts who lived in seclusion were a bit eccentric. If they could easily meet or leave a way to contact him, he might not live in seclusion.
"If fate wills it, we'll meet again! When you met your master this time, did he teach you anything? "Xuan Qizi asked.
"No, but my master brought me a kind of food cultivation. After junior ate it, junior's cultivation rose a lot. Now, I'm more than half of the late fifth layer. I estimate that it won't be long before I can advance to become an immortal cultivator. When I reach the immortal cultivator realm, I'll be able to cook a higher level of food cultivation, which naturally includes immortal fruit cultivation. "
Even though Xuan Qizi's cultivation was profound, he was still shocked by Gu Zheng.
"Little Zhengzi, your cultivation speed really makes people speechless!" Xuan Qizi shook his head and then smiled at Gu Zheng. "However, the faster your cultivation speed, the better. The sooner you become an immortal cultivator, not only can you cook more food cultivation, but our Shu Mountain's strength will also become stronger!"
"Supreme Elder, don't worry, I'll definitely work hard!"
Gu Zheng said very seriously. Xuan Qizi's attitude towards some things made him feel very comfortable.
"Little Zhengzi, if you want to meet the Kunlun Divine Stone, it won't be difficult for me to talk about it. However, you have to pay a price for everything. What's more, you've ruthlessly stepped on the Kunlun Sect's face in the Dragon Battle Square. "
"Supreme Elder, how much did you tell the people of Jade Peak about my situation?"
"I didn't say much. I only said that Emei's current strength is enough to threaten the third place of the Buddhist Sect. I also told him that Emei is your Emei Sect's Supreme Elder."
"Since that's the case, junior wants to tell him about the food cultivation as a price."
"I have the same idea. After all, your other identity is an Immortal Chef. If you make a name for yourself, you will have a lot of resources in the future. In addition, it's also good to take this opportunity to resolve the old grudge between Emei and Kunlun. It was originally caused by the Emei Pagoda. I suggest that you allocate some quotas to Mount Shu to enter the Emei Pagoda. This will be much more perfect. "
"Alright, let's do as the Grand Elder says!"
"Alright, then you wait quietly for the good news. It's not good to let that fellow Yu Feng wait for too long!"
Xuan Qizi came in a hurry and left in a hurry. Gu Zheng's mood also improved a lot.
"In the end, it's still easier to get things done with people around!" Gu Zheng thought to himself.
"That old man Xuan Qizi is not bad. Although he is curious about your secret, he knows how to be content! More importantly, as you grow stronger, he treats you more and more as one of his own. He often talks about the Shushan lineage. "The artifact spirit smiled.
"Yes! But this is also good. I don't reject this feeling. Artifact spirit, speaking of which, I really don't want to hand over the Immortal Tools I won in Kunlun this time. "Gu Zheng said.
"I know you don't want to. No one is willing to spit out the meat in their mouth. But on this matter, it depends on how persistent you are and what Xuan Qizi says." The artifact spirit said.
In the Ancestral Dragon Main Hall, the others had already left. Only Yu Feng was still waiting for Xuan Qizi.
Like a gust of wind, Xuan Qizi was already sitting on a chair in the Ancestral Dragon Main Hall where there was originally no one else.
"First talk to your junior. What do you want to say now?" Yu Feng said with a smile that was not a smile.
"Yu Feng, let me tell you this! This junior of mine has a lot of secrets. Once, Mount Shu wanted to investigate, but the result was very unpleasant! Fortunately, this matter was resolved later. So for this junior of mine, I hope that you won't investigate his secrets. Otherwise, your gains will not make up for your losses. "
Hearing Xuan Qizi's words, Yu Feng frowned. "What kind of person is he? Why do you give him such an evaluation?"
"This junior of mine, he brought his skills to Mount Emei to become the sect master. He has a master that I have never seen before. His master's cultivation realm should not be lower than the two of us! More importantly, his other identity is an Immortal Chef! "Xuan Qizi said solemnly.
"What? Immortal Chef? "
Yu Feng could not remain calm. He naturally knew what an Immortal Chef was. "But now, it is the Age of Chaos. There is almost no food that contains Immortal Origin Energy. What is so special about an Immortal Chef?"
Although he had already thought of the answer, it was too shocking. Yu Feng needed to confirm it again.
"Our understanding is still limited to the Immortal Chefs of the Flourishing Magic Era. Although there isn't any food that contains Immortal Core Power, I, as a junior, can use food that doesn't contain Immortal Core Power to make food that can increase Immortal Core Power. After the Shu Ruins closed, we tried it on Mount Shu. Although the increase isn't much, it's still comparable to a period of hard work. More importantly, he has not become an Immortal Cultivator yet. Once he becomes an Immortal Cultivator, the food that he makes can increase Immortal Energy to a large extent! "
After Xuan Qizi finished speaking, Yu Feng frowned a few times. "No wonder you said that just now. This kind of person is indeed not easy to offend!"
"Of course, if not, why would a rogue cultivator like Mao Zedong be willing to stay in Mount Emei to be a Grand Elder!" Xuan Qizi sighed.
"Yes, no wonder he can attract some Immortal Cultivators. In the Age of Chaos, people with this kind of ability have a strong attraction!"
Yu Feng's voice paused, and he asked, "Xuan Qizi, what is your purpose in telling me this? It is reasonable to say that with such a talent, your Shushan Sect should enjoy it alone! "
"You old man, is there any meaning in saying such words? Is my Shushan Sect so narrow-minded? Telling you is naturally to share with your Kunlun Sect! "
"Hmph, not only to share, but also to resolve the matter on the Dragon Battle Plaza, as well as the old grudge between Mount Emei and Kunlun, right?"
"What happened on the Dragon Battle Plaza was only a contest between a few juniors. Although your juniors lost, it can be considered to have broadened their horizons. It is also a good thing for their growth. As for the old grudge between Mount Emei and Kunlun, it has already been so many years. Those seniors who formed grudges at that time have already ascended, and those who have passed away have already passed away. Is there still a need to let it continue? "
"You say it so easily. If the matter of the Dragon Battle Plaza happened in your Shushan Sect, what would you do? Would you still be as calm as you are now? As for the old grudge, who was the person that Mount Emei offended back then, I don't think I need to say it, right? How can you let me get over it so easily? "
That year, the person who brought gifts to Mount Emei to ask for the Emei Pagoda's quota was the master of Jade Peak Master.
"Jade Peak, think about the long term. If you cooperate with an Immortal Chef, the benefits in the future will be very considerable!" Xuan Qizi advised.
"You also said that it's a cooperation. Then, if you ask him to make something, you will definitely have to pay a lot of remuneration. We don't have any advantages on our side."
Jade Peak Master shook his head. Things had already reached this point. Although he would not make things too difficult for Gu Zheng, it was simply impossible to resolve the resentment in his heart with just the identity of an Immortal Chef.
Of course, Xuan Qizi also knew that just the identity of an Immortal Chef was not enough to make Jade Peak Master calm down. However, he could not throw out all the benefits at once. After all, greed was human nature.
"Actually, Gu Zheng's main purpose in coming to Kunlun this time is to see the Divine Stone of Kunlun," Xuan Qizi said.
"He wants to see the Divine Stone of Kunlun? What does he want to see the Divine Stone of Kunlun for? "Jade Peak Master frowned and asked.
Xuan Qizi recounted the matter that Gu Zheng's master had told him.
"His resentment hasn't dissipated yet, and he wants to see the Divine Stone of Kunlun. Really, don't even think about it! As for his master, if he wants to see the Divine Stone of Kunlun, he can come and find me personally. I can also meet him and see what kind of god he is! "Jade Peak Master said angrily.
"Jade Peak, Kunlun's resentment towards Emei Pagoda started from Emei Pagoda. I think it should also end at Emei Pagoda," Xuan Qizi said again.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Emei Pagoda was repaired by Mao Zedong. In addition, he found another nine floors of the pagoda. Emei Pagoda is now a high pagoda with twenty-two floors. The previous energy battlefield can also be used! If the resentment can be resolved, the matter at the Dragon Battle Plaza can also be resolved, and Gu Zheng can also see the Divine Stone of Kunlun as he wishes, the quota to enter Emei Pagoda in the future will also include a few people from Kunlun. "
"I didn't expect that there would be a day when Emei Pagoda can be used. Xuan Qizi, even if there are a few more quotas to enter Emei Pagoda, we still can't write off this resentment! "
Although he said so, the tone of Master Yu Feng was no longer as resolute as before.
"Jade Peak, Emei Pagoda is now twenty-two floors. The energy battlefield is only one of its functions. It is still in the process of being repaired. According to Mao Zedong, the second function of Emei Pagoda, although it is still an energy battlefield, is a place to train divine sense!"
Xuan Qizi threw out a heavy bomb. Master Yu Feng's eyes immediately lit up! There was no need to say how powerful divine sense was. However, there was almost no way to train it. An energy plaza that could train divine sense, for immortal cultivators, had a great attraction.
"However, you shouldn't be tempted. Emei Pagoda is still in the process of being repaired. This repair still needs some materials. If Kunlun Sect wants to obtain a quota to enter the divine sense energy battlefield, they also need to contribute in the repair aspect. Shu Mountain is the same." Xuan Qizi added.
Master Yu Feng was not in a hurry to speak. He frowned as he weighed the pros and cons.
"For the time being, I am somewhat tempted. The specific situation can also be discussed with Gu Zheng that brat! However, the things that he won in the Dragon Battle Plaza must be returned. After all, those people are the descendants of several Grand Elders. "Master Yu Feng said.
"You are muddle-headed, Jade Peak! These things were won by Gu Zheng fair and square. Now, you want to take them back. Are you trying to bully others by abusing your power? Or raising the price on the ground? If you were Gu Zheng and were treated like this, do you think that future cooperation would still be pleasant? "
Xuan Qizi's voice paused. Then, he said, "I have already said what should be said. This person Gu Zheng, and even the Emei Pagoda that he represents, whether Kunlun wants to be on bad terms or good terms, it is all up to you to decide. However, there is one thing that I can also explain to you. From what I see, that brat Gu Zheng is not a bad person. Being honest with him will definitely be better than playing tricks. "
After Xuan Qizi finished speaking, he minded his own business and drank tea. Only Master Yu Feng, whose brows were still tightly knitted, was left to consider how to deal with this matter.
For Master Yu Feng, this matter really made him feel conflicted. Not to mention the old grudges, Gu Zheng publicly stepped on people in the Dragon Battle Plaza. This made the Kunlun Sect, as the leader of the righteous path, where should they put their face?
However, behind Emei was not only Shushan. Now, it was also strong to the point that people could not ignore it. What's more, Gu Zheng was an Immortal Chef. Emei also had the very attractive Emei Pagoda. It really made people unable to easily offend them.
Just as Xuan Qizi said, either be on good terms or be on bad terms. Choosing to be in the middle was undoubtedly the most unprofitable! After all, the sovereignty of many things seemed to be in Gu Zheng's hands.
After a moment, Master Yu Feng, who had been frowning, relaxed his brows. "Kunlun is the leader of the righteous path. We should be magnanimous. It is better to squash enmity than to keep it alive. What's more, Gu Zheng, this brat, even won against my Kunlun disciple fair and square. There is nothing to say about this!"
"Thought it through?" Xuan Qizi smiled.
"It's not about thinking it through or not. You go and tell Gu Zheng that tomorrow there will be people entering the Ancestral Dragon Great Array. In the morning, I will also give a speech in the Dragon Battle Plaza. At that time, I will praise him in front of everyone and give him a reward. Let him be mentally prepared. As for the details of the cooperation, it will be tomorrow morning. I will discuss it with him in detail! "Master Yu Feng said.
"Amazing!"
Xuan Qizi laughed and gave Master Yu Feng a thumbs up.
The next morning.
This afternoon, there would be a group of people entering the Ancestral Dragon Great Array. This group of people was also the first non-Kunlun Sect disciples to enter the Ancestral Dragon Great Array during this grand meeting.
The huge Dragon Battle Plaza was packed with people. A high platform was also set up in the center of the plaza. Kunlun Sect's Grand Elder, Master Yu Feng, was going to give a speech this morning as usual.
The auspicious time had arrived. Master Yu Feng stepped onto the stage amidst the cheers of the crowd.
Reaching out his hand to signal the cheering crowd below the stage to quiet down, Master Yu Feng opened his mouth and said, "Fellow Daoists, it's time for the grand meeting that happens once every ten years. During each grand meeting, every Fellow Daoist who is invited to Kunlun can receive a portion of resources and then contribute to maintaining the Ancestral Dragon Great Array …"
Master Yu Feng said the same words as in previous years as usual. After he finished saying these words, he didn't let the Kunlun disciples lead the first group of people into the Ancestral Dragon Great Array like in previous years. Instead, he cleared his throat and said, "The matter that happened at the Dragon Battle Plaza the day before yesterday, I presume that all Fellow Daoists already know about it. I have something to say here!"
Master Yu Feng's expression was very serious. His voice even paused. Many people below the stage widened their eyes. One after another, they guessed what Master Yu Feng meant by bringing up the Dragon Battle Plaza incident in front of everyone. Of course, many people suspected that Kunlun Sect was going to settle accounts with the reckless Emei Sect.
"Please welcome Sect Leader Gu!"
Just when everyone was guessing, Master Yu Feng said in a clear voice.
Several Kunlun Sect higher-ups took the lead in applauding. Gu Zheng, who was wearing new clothes, came to the front stage from the backstage and stood beside Master Yu Feng.
Actually, when he received the news that Master Yu Feng wanted to reward him, Gu Zheng was also very surprised. Although Xuan Qizi only told him to prepare and didn't say to let him change into new clothes, in order to show solemnity, Gu Zheng still acted as if he was receiving an award.
In addition, after knowing that the people of the Jade Peak Sect were going to reward him, Gu Zheng was extremely happy. Since he was going to be rewarded in public, the people of the Jade Peak Sect would naturally not be able to take back the things he had won from the Kunlun Sect.
Master Yu Feng once again reached out his hand, indicating for the thunderous applause to stop.
"All along, I've been advocating the exchange of pointers between young people. Although the matter that happened at the Dragon Battle Plaza was a bet, there was still a competition! Kunlun, as the leader of the righteous path, sometimes can't avoid criticism. Just like the matter that happened at the Dragon Battle Plaza this time, there will certainly be many people who will think that Emei Sect will be out of luck because of this, and Kunlun Sect will certainly take care of them! "
Master Yu Feng's voice paused, and then he solemnly said, "What I want to tell everyone today is that Kunlun Sect, as the leader of the righteous path, also has the magnanimity that a leader should have! Relying on luck and strength, Sect Leader Gu won against Kunlun Sect's disciples. This is not something that can't be done, on the contrary, it's a good thing! Although Sect Leader Gu brought defeat to Kunlun Sect's disciples, defeat can also allow Kunlun Sect's disciples to grow better. Kunlun Sect's disciples are not afraid of defeat, they also have the virtue of being willing to accept defeat! Therefore, regarding this matter, Kunlun Sect will not only not make things difficult for Emei Sect, on the contrary, they will give Sect Leader Gu a reward, a reward for this extraordinary young Sect Leader! "
Master Yu Feng handed over the gift box that he had already prepared to Gu Zheng, and then he opened his mouth again, "The reward is five pieces of special resources. Although it's not much, it's significant!"
When Master Yu Feng's voice fell, the applause below the stage immediately thundered.
Five pieces of special resources were not much? But it really wasn't little! If one wanted to use Rank 5 resources to exchange for special resources, even if ten pieces were exchanged for one, it might not be enough.
Originally, it was a shameful matter, but after Elder Yu Feng said this, not only did it not seem shameful, it instead made Kunlun Sect seem very magnanimous.
Master Yu Feng's speech had already ended, but his action of rewarding Gu Zheng today still became the topic of discussion among the cultivators.
Some people said that Kunlun Sect was putting on a show.
Some people said that Kunlun Sect was trying to save face.
There were also people who said that because of the Dragon Battle Plaza incident, not only did Kunlun and Emei Sect not develop hatred, but also resolved their previous grievances.
In short, there were people who said all kinds of things, but only no one said that Kunlun Sect had lost a lot of face this time.
The first batch of people had already entered the Ancestral Dragon Grand Array. Gu Zheng also followed Xuan Qizi and Master Yu Feng to the Ancestral Dragon Grand Hall.
There was no one else in the Ancestral Dragon Grand Hall. Master Yu Feng was also worried. Before the matter was settled, too many people would easily mess things up.
"Little friend Gu Zheng, young and promising!" The three people sat in the hall. Master Yu Feng looked at Gu Zheng and said.
This was the first sentence that Master Yu Feng said to Gu Zheng alone. Although they had met backstage at the Dragon Battle Plaza before, when Master Yu Feng greeted Gu Zheng, he only smiled and nodded. Gu Zheng understood that the words at that time were due to Master Yu Feng's face and pride. Now that he took the initiative to open his mouth, he was about to enter the main topic.
"Esteemed Lord Jade Peak praises me too much. This junior was merely lucky." Gu Zheng laughed.
"Luck is also a skill. Luck is very fleeting, but it is also very important."
Master Yu Feng's voice paused, and then he said, "You also know the purpose of letting you come this time. Regarding the matter of cooperation, Sect Leader Gu, please speak!"
