The situation was on the verge of exploding.
Even the Life God himself showed up at Barren Cloud Heavenly Palace.
But Gu Qing Shan managed to wait until Xie Gu Hong's inner sight sent his voice.
Gu Qing Shan used a few simple words to gloss over everything that happened today.
Whether it's a Divinity or a cultivator, if they have any objections, they can go find Xie Gu Hong.
Since Xie Gu Hong is still alive, he is the Heavenly Palace's Palace Master.
Everything is decided by Xie Gu Hong, so it's only natural that everything follows the rules.
Then next — — -
Gu Qing Shan cleared his throat and clasped his fist around: "One last thing"
Everyone's hearts tensed up as they turned to look at him.
The group of great cultivators all had solemn expressions, waiting for the young man to speak.
This scene was as laughable as it could get.
But it couldn't be helped, this young man doesn't play by the rules, so everyone was scared.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Gu Qing Shan spoke with an apologetic expression: "The master peak doesn't allow meals, I'm sorry"
Everyone was surprised.
They were all grand cultivators, so they could naturally understand the meaning behind those words.
— — -if there's nothing else, and I don't intend to invite you to a meal, why are you still staying here?
The peak masters looked at him, then at the Life God, not knowing whether to leave or not.
Without the Palace Master's permission, cultivators of other peaks can't stay on the master peak.
Staying here would be telling others that they're violating the sect's rules.
But since the Life God hasn't left yet, how could these peak masters dare to leave?
In truth, the one who felt the most uncomfortable was the Life God.
— — -as a Divinity, why did you come down here?
Since he gave up on the matter and said that he'll wait for Xie Gu Hong to return, that means there's nothing else to do.
Even if there's something else, you should go talk to Xie Gu Hong.
And now he's saying that the master peak doesn't allow meals.
Then why is a Divinity like you still staying here?
Waiting for a meal?
— — no, this isn't a matter of food or not.
In fact, even if the master peak did allow meals, would a Divinity like you be shameless enough to eat for free?
No, that's not the problem either.
What's the problem?
— — -regardless of what you do, it's not right.
The Life God calmed himself down and declared with a dignified tone: 「 Everyone is dismissed. After Xie Gu Hong returns victorious, you can discuss the internal affairs of Barren Cloud Heavenly Palace again 」
His expression was solemn, his tone dignified, and his bearing dignified.
But what he said …
Wasn't that obvious?
The Life God also realized this and didn't want to stay here any longer. It turned into a streak of golden light and shot into the sky.
Seeing that the God had left, the Four Divine Beasts also quietly left.
The Peak Leaders had no choice but to bring the cultivators who were still alive and the corpses away from the main peak.
When they came, they came with great momentum, but when they left, they said nothing.
Gu Qing Shan held the sect master jade disk in her hand and sent a spell into it.
He smiled and waved towards the outside of the mountain. "Everyone, please go back. We're going to eat."
The jade disk lit up.
Pa!
The entire main peak disappeared.
The concealment formation on the sect master's jade disk was activated.
The main peak was still there, but it was no longer visible.
The three disciples of the main peak went to eat.
This …
There's nothing else to see.
Before, because the Divinity appeared, everyone came here to listen to his teachings.
But now that the Divinity had left, the Barren Cloud master peak's gates have already closed.
If you still refuse to leave at this point, you'll only end up being chased away.
After this, who wouldn't know what kind of disciple Xie Gu Hong took in?
Let's go, let's go before it's too late.
While the great cultivators scattered in different directions, they silently thought to themselves.
— — the next generation of Barren Cloud Heavenly Palace is not to be trifled with.
That's too scary …
The great cultivators returned to their sects with various thoughts in their minds.
…
Two days later.
Barren Cloud master peak.
Huang Zhan and Shen Yang were standing guard outside the Sword Abyss.
— — when Xie Gu Hong returned, he solemnly ordered them to guard this place and not to go anywhere.
Huang Zhan had been standing guard for a long time, so he was a bit bored.
He glanced at Shen Yang and couldn't help but ask: "Third brother, there's something I don't understand"
"Please tell me, senior brother" Shen Yang replied.
Huang Zhan asked: "Two days ago, why did all those people leave when senior brother said you won't leave any food?"
Shen Yang asked: "Then what should they do? Continue to stay on our master peak? "
Huang Zhan waved his hand dismissively: "That's not what I meant, I just felt that senior brother's words were very clever. No matter how much I thought about it, I really couldn't learn it"
Shen Yang chuckled: "If it was you, what would you say?"
Huang Zhan puffed out his chest and shouted: "If there's nothing else, then scram from the master peak"
Shen Yang glared at him: "The Divinity is in the sky, you dare to tell the Divinity to scram?"
Huang Zhan was a bit dejected: "That's why I felt that senior brother's words were very clever. He clearly told everyone to scram, but all he said was that he wouldn't leave any food. Just look, even the Divinity couldn't scold him, he just turned around and left"
"That's why he's our first brother" Shen Yang replied.
While they were whispering, inside the Sword Abyss, Xie Gu Hong was also scolding Gu Qing Shan.
"Don't you know how many times you almost offended the Divinity?" Xie Gu Hong asked.
Gu Qing Shan smiled apologetically: "I know, I didn't offend the Divinity at all"
Xie Gu Hong sighed: "You can't do that anymore from now on, otherwise, if you offend the Divinity one day, even I won't be able to save you"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "I've already offended him"
Xie Gu Hong went silent.
"That's right" he slowly said, "the Life God must hate you to the core"
"It's very hard to gain the favor of the Divinity, but it's very simple to make them hate you. If you ever run into the Life God's people again, make sure to stay as far away as possible"
"Also, don't easily cause trouble from now on, make sure to observe the situation before you act"
Gu Qing Shan was a bit confused: "Master, what do you mean by that?"
Xie Gu Hong stayed silent for a bit before answering: "The Life God has protected the peak masters"
Gu Qing Shan went silent, then smiled again: "He is a Divinity, no one would dare to disobey the Divinity, is that right?"
"That's right, Gu Qing Shan, you should know that we are all creations of the Divinity, the Divinity's orders are the meaning of our existence"
"Master, do you really think that way?"
"No, the Divinity thinks that way"
"Then what about Master?"
"I am very grateful that they gave me life, but since I am a life, I have my own way of thinking"
Xie Gu Hong clapped his hands.
From the void of space, a figure appeared.
Luo Bingli.
She told Gu Qing Shan: "I need a drop of your blood, of course, the more the better"
Without hesitation, Gu Qing Shan cut her finger and tossed a drop of blood over.
Luo Bingli pressed her hand against the air.
The drop of blood immediately hovered in the air.
Luo Bingli took out her flute and played a song towards the drop of blood.
The song was over.
The drop of blood slowly turned into Gu Qing Shan's appearance.
"This is …" Gu Qing Shan doubtfully asked.
Xie Gu Hong explained: "Your two junior brothers will be heading to the Water God Palace to cultivate, and I will be heading to the frontlines again, so you will be the only one left on the master peak"
"This situation is extremely dangerous, Qing Shan, if I really die the next time, the peak masters will definitely take your life, you won't even have time to alert the four Divine Beasts"
"And so?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"And so we will create a real you to stay on the master peak every day to cultivate" Luo Bingli replied.
"Then what about me?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Xie Gu Hong and Luo Bingli exchanged glances.
Luo Bingli asked: "I heard that you're quite proficient in the 6 arts?"
"It's passable" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Xie Gu Hong continued: "We only have one last absolutely confidential and reliable identity left, not only does humanity not know about this identity, not even the Divinities know about it"
"Qing Shan, I'll leave this identity to you, I hope that you can use it as much as you can and focus on your swordsmanship every day"
He spoke sincerely: "Once your swordsmanship is on par with the peak masters, we'll be able to be a bit more assured about your safety. At that time, you can return to the master peak as the sect's first disciple"
Luo Bingli also added: "Not only is that identity reliable, but the location is also very safe. You won't be very busy after you arrive, after you're done with what you need to do, you can use the rest of your time to cultivate"
"Where am I going?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Humanity's 23rd reserve corps camp, which is also the last of the 23 reserve corps camps" Xie Gu Hong replied.
"Which means, I'll be a combat cultivator" Gu Qing Shan nodded.
A reserve corps camp probably won't enter the battlefield so soon, not to mention it's the 23rd corps camp.
But going to the battlefield is even better, that way I'll be able to earn Soul Points.
While he was thinking that, the two great cultivators both shook their heads.
"No, not a combat cultivator, the last confidential and reliable identity we have is the cook of the 23rd reserve corps camp" Luo Bingli replied.
