Gu Zheng easily subdued Diao Ying, who had suffered a serious backlash after her Natal Fairy Weapon was destroyed. As for the evil cultivator who had escaped, he was stopped and killed by the two cultivators of Mount Shu Sect.
They searched Diao Ying's soul. Although they didn't find anything special, the Blood Transformation Sect was almost finished! They only had one cultivator left. Because he was stationed in the League of Devil Dao, he was spared.
"Senior, are you Gu Zheng, the leader of Emei Sect?"
Although the two cultivators of Emei Sect were old, they still looked at Gu Zheng with great respect. After all, this was a world where strength was respected. They were shocked by Gu Zheng's means just now.
"Yes."
Gu Zheng nodded to them and asked, "Are you two disciples of Mount Shu Sect in the Untainted Land?"
"No, our sect is not big in the Untainted Land, but it is a sword immortal sect," one of the cultivators said.
"Is it your decision to come to the Blood Transformation Sect, or is it your spontaneous action?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"It's the decision of the sect."
One of the cultivators paused and then said, "Originally, the sect got the news that Diao Ying went to the League of Devil Dao, so we launched this sneak attack. But who would have thought that Diao Ying would come back as soon as the battle began?"
"It's all thanks to you, senior. How should we distribute these spoils?"
Another cultivator took out several storage belts.
This time, it was Gu Zheng who had helped them out. Diao Ying and a cultivator from the Blood Transformation Sect had both died in his hands. It was reasonable to say that these two spoils of war should belong to him. As for the rest, the two cultivators of Mount Shu had taken them all out, as if they would obey him no matter how he distributed them.
"I only want what Diao Ying has, and the rest are yours."
"Thank you, senior!"
With regards to Gu Zheng's decision, the two Xiuxianists immediately expressed their gratitude with joy.
"Is the head of the Shushan Sect in Shushan right now?" Gu Zheng asked.
There were many cultivators in Shu Mountain, but Gu Zheng only knew Xuan Qizi.
Moreover, Gu Zheng learned from Lian Yuxin that the leader of the Shushan Sect was called Immortal Han Shuang. He was a cultivator at the middle stage of Jin Xian and came from the Shushan Sect in the Untainted Land.
"Reverend Han Shuang is currently at Mount Shu, and so is Xuan Qizi. Senior, are you going to Mount Shu?" asked a cultivator.
"That's right. I'm going to make a trip to Shushan."
The two cultivators seemed to be planning to go back with Gu Zheng, but Gu Zheng didn't want to travel with them. He still had a lot of things to do. If he traveled with these two people, he would definitely be left behind. Therefore, as soon as he finished speaking, he nodded at the two cultivators from Shu Mountain as a form of farewell.
Wei Baoshan was in Dian Province. For immortal cultivators, it was relatively close to Shu Mountain.
After Gu Zheng arrived at Shushan, the Shushan disciples immediately reported his arrival. Xuan Qizi personally came out to greet Gu Zheng.
"I didn't expect to see you again on Earth!"
Before Xuan Qizi arrived, his laughter had already reached Gu Zheng's ears.
"Grand Elder, long time no see!"
Gu Zheng also smiled and felt quite emotional.
When he first met Xuan Qizi in Shushan, he was a high and mighty Grand Elder. Later, because of what happened, Xuan Qizi affectionately called him "Little Strife".
Later on, Gu Zheng's growth speed was too fast, so much so that he quickly advanced to the Golden Immortal realm, and the name 'Little Zheng' no longer existed.
However, Xuan Qizi also understood Gu Zheng's character. Although he no longer called Gu Zheng "Little Strife" to show respect, when he talked to Gu Zheng, he didn't become restrained because Gu Zheng had advanced to the Jin Xian Realm. This made Gu Zheng feel quite comfortable.
However, all of this was already six years ago.
"Six years, it's a very short time, but too many things have happened!" Xuan Qizi's voice was full of emotion.
Gu Zheng saw Xuan Qizi. He didn't change much from six years ago. He still had white hair, a youthful face, and an immortal aura.
"Tsk tsk, this time there's a big move! When the disciples reported that you brought Diao Ying here, I asked them if they were mistaken. Now it seems that this is really Diao Ying! "Xuan Qizi laughed.
Gu Zheng did bring Diao Ying here. These evil cultivators who were taken care of by him, but left alive, would be brought to Emei Sect by him.
Gu Zheng smiled and didn't comment, "Is Grand Elder going to talk here?"
"Of course not, please come in!"
Xuan Qizi laughed and brought Gu Zheng into Shushan Sect, and came to the main hall of Shushan.
Seeing that there was only him and Xuan Qizi in the main hall, Gu Zheng couldn't help but ask, "Grand Elder, where are the rest of Shushan Sect's higher-ups?"
"They have something to do. However, according to the time, maybe they'll be done while we're talking, "Xuan Qizi said.
Gu Zheng smiled and then said, "Grand Elder, I'm actually here to denounce you!"
Emei was a branch of Shushan, and Shushan still had a quota to use the Chaos Tower. Heavenly Demon Sect's attack on Emei was in the form of a letter of challenge, so Emei had already known about it and had also asked Shushan for help. Shushan had promised to help, but in the end, they stood Emei up.
"Regarding the matter of Shu Mountain standing us up, there's a reason for this as well!"
Xuan Qizi laughed bitterly and then said, "I don't know if you know that I don't have the final say in Shushan now?"
"It's because I know this that I'm not angry with you. If you still have the final say in Shushan, I'll really be angry!"
As Gu Zheng spoke, he looked outside the main hall. A group of people had already appeared in his sight. The Divine Thought of the leader had already probed into Shushan's main hall.
"Angry? What right do you have to be angry? As a branch of Shushan, everything depends on the opinion of the main sect. Don't you know that? Shushan stood Emei up, so naturally, they have their reasons to stand us up! "
The voice that came into the main hall sounded very cold. Although it was still far away, Gu Zheng had already seen the appearance of the person who spoke. This person had white hair and a youthful face, but the coldness in his eyes always gave people the feeling that they owed him money! He was the current head of Shushan Sect, Spiritual Master Han Shuang.
Spiritual Master Han Shuang and the group of six quickly entered Shushan's main hall. There were all kinds of gazes from these people, including ridicule and contempt. Anyway, none of them were good.
"Who are you to Emei Sect?"
Spiritual Master Han Shuang and the others had just come from the back of Shushan, so they didn't know about the matter of reporting to the sect. However, on the way from the back of the mountain to Shushan's main hall, his Divine Thought had already probed, so he knew that Gu Zheng was from Emei Sect.
When he saw Gu Zheng's appearance, Spiritual Master Han Shuang was also shocked! After all, Emei was a branch of Shushan. Gu Zheng had advanced to Jin Xian and ascended to the Untainted Land. His portrait also existed in Shushan's Ascension Pavilion.
Knowing was one thing, pretending not to know was another. Spiritual Master Han Shuang was unhappy with Gu Zheng's attitude when talking to Xuan Qizi.
"I heard that you are from Shushan Sect in the Untainted Land, but now it seems that you should belong to a branch of Shushan, right?"
Shushan was a very big cultivation sect in the Untainted Land. Of course, it also had many branch sects. However, this branch was different from the one on Earth. The branch on Earth was really separated, and even the name of the sect was changed! The branch of Shushan Sect in the Untainted Land was still called Shushan Sect, but under the sect's plaque, there were words that originally represented Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches to distinguish these branch sects.
"Yes, we are all from the branch sects of Shushan. But because we are from the branch sects, we understand that the decision of the main sect is more important." Spiritual Master Han Shuang said coldly.
"Earth is different from the Untainted Land. The branch sects of Shushan on Earth are already independent! So, in the face of the matter of standing up, shouldn't you give an explanation? "
"Presumptuous!"
"Who are you to speak in the main hall of Shushan?"
When Gu Zheng's voice fell, before Spiritual Master Han Shuang could say anything, the two cultivators of Shushan scolded him.
"I am speaking as the leader of Emei Sect. What's wrong?"
Gu Zheng looked coldly at the two cultivators who scolded him.
Xuan Qizi knew Gu Zheng's temper, so he quickly said, "Let's talk nicely!"
"Spiritual Master, about the matter last time, I think it's better to give an explanation!"
Xuan Qizi looked at Spiritual Master Han Shuang, and his eyes showed that he wanted her to be careful.
"Xuan Qizi, I really don't know how you lead Shushan Sect! Before we came back from the Untainted Land, you let Emei overshadow Shushan. Now that we are all back, why are you still so useless? Can you not disgrace Shushan? Not to mention a young boy like him, even their patriarch, Changmei, didn't he also stay in Shushan when he ascended to the Untainted Land? "
Spiritual Master Han Shuang looked at Xuan Qizi mockingly. Xuan Qizi sighed and closed his eyes, as if he didn't care.
"There is no explanation, and there is no need to explain. You just need to know that the decision of the higher-ups is right. That's enough!"
Spiritual Master Han Shuang's voice paused, and then she sneered, "In addition, pay attention to your attitude. On Earth, you were the leader of our branch sect, so I was more patient when talking to you. But if you were in the Untainted Land, you would have been taught a lesson. I think you should know this! "
"Haha."
Gu Zheng looked at Spiritual Master Han Shuang and smiled, "I don't want to talk about attitude with you. I just want you to understand that if Shushan doesn't give me a reasonable explanation this time, Emei will be Emei, and Shushan will be Shushan. We will have nothing to do with each other!"
"Hahahaha …"
Except for Xuan Qizi, everyone in the hall laughed.
"You want to break away from Shushan? If you break away from Shushan, you will lose the qualification to enter Shushan. How are you going to let the disciples of Emei cultivate in the future? "
Spiritual Master Han Shuang rarely laughed, as if she had heard a big joke.
"You don't need to worry about how the disciples of Emei cultivate in the future!"
Gu Zheng stood up as he spoke, "In the future, Emei and Shushan will have nothing to do with each other. We will go our separate ways!"
Daoist Master Han Shuang was somewhat surprised. He had originally thought that Gu Zheng was just trying to talk his way out of this. After considering the pros and cons, he would give in. Who would have thought that he would leave just like that?
Spiritual Master Han Shuang said, "Although Shushan stood up Emei's request for help last time, there was a reason for that! But after that, Shushan also helped Emei defend Foggy Wind Island. Don't be impulsive and do something that will harm the future generations! "
Gu Zheng turned a deaf ear to Spiritual Master Han Shuang's warning.
"Sigh!"
Xuan Qizi could only sigh that things had turned out this way.
"Sect Leader Gu, you have to think about the big picture, especially in this special period. Shushan didn't give an explanation. There really is a reason for this!" Xuan Qizi said.
"It's because I know there's a reason for this that I personally came to Shushan this time! But you don't seem to want to give an explanation. In that case, forget it. I'm not interested in knowing. "Gu Zheng stopped and said.
Spiritual Master Han Shuang said, "It's not impossible to know the reason. Go back and wait for the notice!"
Emei was a branch of Shushan. Although it was no longer glorious, it was still a big sect in the righteous path! Spiritual Master Han Shuang didn't want to fall out with Emei.
"No need. I said I'm not interested in knowing. You don't have to explain it to me!"
Gu Zheng sneered and said, "As I said before, Emei and Shushan have nothing to do with each other in the future! Let's go our separate ways! "
Looking at Gu Zheng who raised his foot again, Spiritual Master Han Shuang's anger, who had calmed down a little after the conflict, suddenly soared.
"Gu Zheng, if your Emei breaks away from Shushan, it can also be said that you've broken away from the righteous path alliance. If you encounter people from the demonic path in the future, you won't get any help!" Spiritual Master Han Shuang said angrily.
"You're talking as if the righteous path alliance helped Emei when it was attacked last time!" Gu Zheng sneered.
"If Emei breaks away from Shushan, it means that it breaks away from the righteous path alliance. Then let's break away! I, Gu Zheng, want to see which demonic path sect dares to attack Emei! Besides, can Shushan represent the entire righteous path alliance? You can't! "
Gu Zheng left with a belly full of anger.
Originally, Gu Zheng came to Shushan to find out the reason for the incident, but who would have thought that Spiritual Master Han Shuang was such a good-for-nothing? When he left, Xuan Qizi wanted to see him off, but he was stopped by Spiritual Master Han Shuang, so he, the leader of Emei, left Shushan Sect without being seen off.
"That's so infuriating!"
The Device Spirit's voice sounded. When Gu Zheng was still in the main hall of Shushan Sect, she wanted Gu Zheng to teach the people of Shushan Sect a lesson more than once.
"Forget it, don't be too angry! Although Spiritual Master Han Shuang is a good-for-nothing, Shushan is a righteous path sect after all. I don't need to fight with them because of this. Besides, even if I don't give face to others, I have to give face to Spiritual Master Ziyun and Jin Yuanzi. When I was in Untainted Land, they took care of me very much, "Gu Zheng said.
"It's a pity that when you left Shushan, there was nothing that could represent your identity among the things that Spiritual Master Ziyun gave you! Otherwise, if you showed them the token, wouldn't they have bowed to you? "The Device Spirit said hatefully.
Gu Zheng didn't say anything. He just shook his head and smiled.
"Where are you going now?" The Device Spirit asked again.
"First, I'll go back to the sect, then I'll go out again. After that, I'll go to Kunlun!" Gu Zheng said.
Shushan was very close to Emei, so Gu Zheng quickly returned to the sect and handed Diao Ying, who had been with him all this time, to the higher-ups of the sect.
When Gu Zheng returned to Earth this time, he didn't kill several evil cultivators, but just disabled them.
Although Gu Zheng only brought Diao Ying with him, the rest of the evil cultivators would soon be sent to the sect. After all, when Gu Zheng first communicated with the sect with his divine thoughts, he had already asked the higher-ups of the sect to go to those islands to pick up the people.
Gu Zheng didn't stay in the sect for long. He immediately went out and made some arrangements.
When Gu Zheng returned to the sect again, it was already two days later. The higher-ups of the sect had also brought back all the evil cultivators that he had restrained.
Gu Zheng fixed all the evil cultivators, who were temporarily alive, on the pillars outside Emei's Mountain-guarding Immortal Formation. He also set up an immortal formation on the ground, which would not produce sharp rain, snow, wind, and frost, in order to take care of the evil cultivators on the pillars.
If they were just ordinary evil cultivators, Gu Zheng wouldn't have been so cruel to kill them. However, these evil cultivators who were fixed on the pillars had their hands stained with the blood of those who were related to him. If he didn't treat these evil cultivators harshly, he would be letting down those who had died.
Gu Zheng used his divine thoughts to engrave the evil cultivators' miserable faces and their words into a jade slip. Then, he flew to Kunlun Mountain with the jade slip.
In Kunlun Sect, the immortal cultivators that Gu Zheng knew no longer existed. However, the disciples guarding the mountain recognized him. When they saw that he had come to visit Kunlun, they were shocked and quickly reported it to the higher-ups of the sect.
Compared to Shushan, Kunlun seemed to attach great importance to Gu Zheng's arrival. A total of six immortal cultivators came out to welcome Gu Zheng. Among them was the current head of Kunlun — Master Scarlet Sun.
On the way to the Ancestral Dragon Main Hall, Master Scarlet Sun smiled at Gu Zheng and said, "I have heard of some of Sect Master Gu's legendary past. However, I didn't expect to see Sect Master Gu again on Earth one day!"
"I have also heard a lot about your deeds when I came back," Gu Zheng said politely.
Master Scarlet Sun had just come to Earth from the Desolate Age last year. However, the number of evil cultivators that died in his hands was not small. With him in charge of Kunlun, Kunlun, which was originally in a precarious situation, had once again become the leader of the righteous sects.
On the surface, Master Scarlet Sun's cultivation level was at the late stage of Jin Xian. However, Gu Zheng had the Artifact Spirit. Therefore, he could know that Master Scarlet Sun's cultivation level was actually at the early stage of Daluo Jinxian. This was also the immortal cultivator with the highest cultivation level that Gu Zheng had seen since he returned to Earth.
On the way to the Ancestral Dragon Main Hall, Master Scarlet Sun and Gu Zheng chatted and laughed from time to time. However, it was just some pleasantries.
After arriving at the Ancestral Dragon Main Hall, Gu Zheng went straight to the point and said, "Fellow Daoist, actually, I came to Kunlun this time because I want to borrow Kunlun's' Boundary Stone '."
Kunlun had two Divine Stones. One was the 'Kunlun Divine Stone' that could predict the world's major events. The other was the 'Boundary Stone'.
The so-called 'Boundary Stone' was also a type of Divine Stone. It was nurtured by Kunlun's Dragon Veins and had some unusual abilities. It even contained the power of the laws.
The world's general situation was like the ebb and flow of the sea. It was like the sun and the moon's waxing and waning. The decline of the Dao and the rise of the Devil, the rise of the Devil, the decline of the Dao. These were all normal things. It was just that the span of time varied.
In the past, when the Devil Dao was flourishing, many righteous sects were exterminated by the Devil Dao. Later on, they were rebuilt. However, Kunlun and Shushan had never had such a thing happen to them. At most, they would be attacked by others! There was one reason that couldn't be ignored for such a difference. Both Shushan and Kunlun had an unusual Immortal Artifact. Shushan's Hidden Sword Peak and Kunlun's Boundary Stone!
