"Don't count anymore, we admit defeat!" Zhao Sanyuan had no other choice. Instead of getting beaten up and injured, he might as well take the initiative and avoid some physical pain. Anyway, he had already lost all his face, so he didn't care about being hung up for a few more days.
Just like that, Zhao Sanyuan and the others, who had just been released, took the initiative to hang themselves. After tying themselves up, they jumped off the mountain stream like bungee jumping and swayed with the wind.
"This …" The students felt a chill run down their spines. They couldn't help but look at Gudu Baitian in awe.
"What about us, Peak Master Gudu?" The law enforcers, who bullied the weak and feared the strong, were completely dumbfounded. They didn't know what to do and couldn't help but ask.
"You trash aren't worthy of being hung on my Solitary Peak. Go back and enforce the law properly. Don't commit any more crimes. Otherwise, if I catch you, you'll be executed without mercy!" Gudu Baitian didn't make things difficult for these people.
"Yes, yes, thank you …" As if relieved of a great burden, these law enforcers and minions fled in terror.
"You go up too!" With a wave of his hand, Captain Da Pi was also hung on the Solitary Peak, swaying with the wind.
"Alright, it's over. Everyone can disperse. However, if anyone dares to provoke my Solitary Peak in the future, they'll still be hung up!" Gudu Baitian waved his hand, dismissing everyone. Then, he said to Chen Jiu and the others, "Come with me!"
In the Defeated Heaven Hall, Gudu Baitian sat on the main seat, looking a little tired. Chen Jiu and the other 11 senior brothers and sisters entered together and bowed to pay their respects.
"Master, we're sorry. We've caused trouble for you. Troubling your real body to come and disturb your cultivation is a crime worthy of death!" Zhu Guli was the first to admit his mistake. "However, this is all because of that brat Chen Jiu. If it weren't for his outrageous actions, this wouldn't have happened!"
"Zhu Guli, you shut up. The root of this mess is that the Great Sun Saint Son wanted to use this opportunity to pursue me. It has nothing to do with Chen Jiu. If not for him trying his best to protect the dignity of my peak, you people would have long been beaten to a pulp. At that time, even if Master were to return, he would not have any face left!" Gudu Chi reprimanded with great dissatisfaction.
"That's right, Master. It's all thanks to Ninth Junior Brother. Although he's a little overbearing, if you want to punish someone, please punish us!" All of the senior and junior brothers wholeheartedly defended Chen Jiu.
"Punishment? When did I say I was going to punish you? You've done the right thing, well done! Although our Solitary Peak is small in number, we can't allow our dignity to be tarnished. I've already roughly understood the situation. Not only is Chen Jiu not at fault, he has also performed meritorious deeds! " Gudu Baitian looked at Chen Jiu and said with a smile, "If I'm not wrong, you should have dragon bloodline!"
"Master, I am!" Chen Jiu smiled helplessly. There was no need to hide it.
"Chen Jiu, you don't need to take it to heart. Although the Dragonblood Clan has declined and has few members, there will still be some. Although people like this will be suppressed, in the future, Master will protect you. You can do whatever you want!" Gudu Baitian spoke with great importance.
"Many thanks, Master!" Chen Jiu felt the sincerity of Gudu Baitian and was very moved.
"There's no need to be so courteous. Back in the day, the Dragonblood Clan wasn't one of the Sovereign Lord's generals, but even the Sovereign Lord was wary of your clan. He couldn't conquer your clan, and could only coexist peacefully with you. Although your Dragonblood War God perished in that battle, and your clan went missing, no one has ever dared to underestimate the Dragonblood Clan!" Dugu Baitian revealed some of the secrets of ancient times.
"The Dragonblood Clan participated in the creation of the Immortal Executioner's War Map and disappeared. Could they have taken the opportunity to hide in the Immortal Executioner's War Map?" Zhu Shi couldn't help but ask. If Chen Jiu could gain the support of a clan, then things would go a lot smoother between them.
"That's very likely. The Immortal Executioner's War Map is a supreme treasure. Who wouldn't want it now?" Dugu Baitian nodded solemnly and said, "If the Dragonblood Clan is in there, they'll sense it. Chen Jiu will have the upper hand when it comes time to fight for the map!"
"If that's the case, then the dragon bloodline is very important?" Gudu Baitian couldn't help but look strangely at Chen Jiu. No wonder he was so lecherous. He was from the Dragonblood Clan.
"The dragon bloodline is important, but the most important thing is the Immortal Executioner's War Map. Without it, Chen Jiu is not that dangerous." Gudu Baitian couldn't help but explain.
"I see!" Chen Jiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He didn't want to become the target of the gods as soon as he was born. Even ten thousand of him wouldn't be enough to kill him.
"Little Rou, from what I can see, with the exception of Gu Li, your cultivation bases have all improved by leaps and bounds. Did you all take some kind of treasured pill?" Dugu Baitian then asked.
"That's right, Master. It's all thanks to Ninth Junior Brother. He gave us countless civilization genes …" The brothers didn't dare to delay and hurriedly explained.
"Oh? Chen Jiu, I didn't think you'd be able to find such a miraculous pill in the Divine Palace of Civilization. As far as I know, this pill should be hidden very well. Even if you have great potential, I'm afraid you won't be able to improve even half an inch! " Gudu Baitian couldn't help but wonder. This pill was different from anything else. It was the foundation of the Divine Palace of Civilization's army. How could an ordinary person obtain it so easily?
"Uh …." Chen Jiu was at a loss for words. He didn't know how to explain it. Ordinary lies wouldn't be able to fool Gudu Baitian.
"Alright, I know you have secrets, but there's no need to talk about them. I know you don't have any ill intentions. It would be strange if someone like you didn't have secrets!" Gudu Baitian said. "Your secrets are your opportunities, and I won't take them away from you. Focus on your cultivation. From now on, the Solitary Peak will be your home!"
"Thank you, Master," Yang Qi said. "But can we talk in private?" Chen Jiu's heart skipped a beat. He could sense that someone like Gudu Baitian was trying to steal his good fortune. After all, they had their own pride, and wouldn't go back on their word and steal the treasures of their apprentices.
Chen Jiu was very moved by Gudu Baitian's protection, and therefore, he wanted to give him the Primal-Chaos Civilization Pill. If Gudu Baitian could become a Primal-Chaos God, then the Solitary Peak would be able to truly establish its prestige. Otherwise, the matter of the law enforcers being detained wouldn't be easy to deal with. After all, it involved Peaklord Graysun!
