Hit it off immediately
Gu Tianjiao had always been brooding over his defeat in the Six Sect Grand Competition.
As the top genius of the Divine Wind Palace, he was arrogant by nature and had never taken anyone seriously. However, Chu Xingyun's appearance had not only failed to make him show his might, but had also humiliated and ridiculed him time and time again.
All of this was like a brand, deeply imprinted in the depths of Gu Tianjiao's heart. His hatred for Chu Xingyun was very deep, and he was constantly thinking about revenge. He wanted to kill Chu Xingyun.
As soon as he heard Luo Yun's name, the murderous intent in his heart surged out. He could not suppress it at all.
"What the Young Master said makes sense. As long as we can seize the Wanjian Pavilion and the Ancient Star Sect's rich heritage, our Divine Wind Palace will definitely rise. We won't lose out to the Jiuhan Temple!"
"Even though a mere Luo Yun possesses some strength, he's just a despicable person that plays tricks in the end. We only have to make a slight move before we'll be able to easily annihilate him. It's utterly as easy as blowing off dust."
"That's right. The reason why Luo Yun was able to become the final winner was because Gu Fanxing and Fan Wujie were stupid and were caught off guard. Otherwise, how could he have fallen at the hands of a young man?"
All the elders and higher-ups chimed in. Their words were filled with fanaticism and disdain. In their eyes, the young Chu Xingyun was weak and definitely not a match for the Divine Wind Palace.
Actually, Gu Xuan Feng had the same thought in his heart. However, he felt uneasy for some reason and it was because of this uneasy feeling that he was unable to make a decision.
"The Wanjian Pavilion and the Ancient Star Sect have been through a bloody battle. Countless people have died and their vitality has been greatly damaged. However, we don't know what the real battle is like. Moreover, Luo Yun appeared with a group of experts and was able to kill Fan Wujie and Gu Fanxing. This also proves his strength."
Gu Xuanfeng's expression was slightly ugly as he said in a serious tone, "Before we know his background, we can't act rashly and we can't underestimate him either. We don't want to repeat the mistakes of Wanjian Pavilion and Ancient Star Sect."
As the Palace Master of the Divine Wind Palace and a Fifth Nirvana Stage expert, Gu Xuan Feng was extremely cautious. He could faintly sense that the uneasiness came from Chu Xingyun.
As for the reason, he didn't know. It was an instinctive sense of vigilance.
"Father, this is such a rare opportunity. If someone else gets it first, it will be a great loss and a great threat to us." Gu Tianjiao did not understand Gu Xuanfeng's actions. Because he was in a hurry, his brows were tightly knitted together.
He looked at Gu Xuanfeng indignantly and muttered, "Could it be that Father is afraid of Chu Xingyun?"
"How dare you!"
Gu Xuanfeng suddenly shouted. His voice was like thunder and it exploded in Gu Tianjiao's ears. It gave the crowd a fright and their hearts beat violently as if they were about to burst out of their bodies.
"Palace Master, Sect Leader Lin is outside the palace." Just as the atmosphere was extremely tense, a green-clothed disciple walked in from outside the palace. He kept his head lowered and did not dare to look at anyone in the palace. He appeared to be extremely respectful.
"Lin Yuanli, what is he doing here?" Gu Xuanfeng frowned slightly. The Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Wind Palace were far apart and it was already late at night. It was indeed strange that Lin Yuanli would suddenly come here.
Although he was puzzled, Gu Xuanfeng did not hesitate. He sat down and waved his hand, "Let him in."
Hearing this, the green-clothed disciple immediately retreated. Not long after, Lin Yuanli, who looked travel-worn, walked in from outside the palace. He wore a set of bronze light armor and carried a long saber on his back. His every movement was filled with a domineering aura. No one dared to look at him and they all bowed.
Following Lin Yuanli was Lin Jingxuan. He was covered in a black robe and the moment he entered the palace, he bowed slightly to Gu Xuanfeng in a very polite manner.
It should be known that the Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Wind Palace had always been on good terms and the two sects had close relations. Of course, they had to treat each other with respect.
"Sect Leader Lin, I hope you have been well since we parted in the Saint Star City." Gu Xuanfeng cupped his hands and a smile immediately appeared on his face. He did not look as serious as before.
The Elders of the Divine Wind Palace restrained their expressions and looked at Lin Yuanli and Lin Jingxuan with smiles. Gu Tianjiao was the same. He took the initiative to walk to Lin Yuanli's side and called out calmly.
"As the saying goes, one does not visit a temple without a cause. I will speak frankly." Lin Yuanli glanced around and said seriously, "May I ask Lord Gu if you have heard of the bloody battle between the Wanjian Pavilion and the Ancient Star Sect?"
Hearing this, the Elders' expressions changed. Even the shrewd Gu Tianjiao frowned subconsciously and involuntarily looked at Gu Xuanfeng.
"I have heard a little about it," Gu Xuanfeng replied calmly.
"The Wanjian Pavilion and the Ancient Star Sect are in a bloody battle and Luo Yun is the final winner. As a result, all the greedy eyes will be focused on him. I believe Lord Gu will also have the same thoughts."
"But as far as I know, the Divine Wind Palace has not taken any action. I believe Lord Gu is the same as me. You feel uneasy about Luo Yun who suddenly appeared and cannot see the truth. Am I right?" Lin Yuanli's words were direct and did not hide anything. He also felt uneasy about Chu Xingyun, and it was even more intense than Gu Xuanfeng's.
Gu Xuanfeng looked at Lin Yuanli in surprise. After a while, he seemed to have understood something. He smiled faintly and said, "You and I both feel uneasy and coveted. Lord Lin, you must have come here tonight to cooperate, right?"
"The Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Wind Palace are one of the six major forces in the Northern Wilderness Region. If we can take over the Wanjian Pavilion and the Ancient Star Sect, it will be of great help. Moreover, as long as the two sects cooperate, no matter how many tricks Luo Yun has, he can only suffer defeat in the face of absolute power." Lin Yuanli's words had already expressed his intentions. He was here for cooperation.
"Father!" Gu Tianjiao's face was filled with joy again as he immediately called out to Gu Xuanfeng.
If the Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Wind Palace worked together, their strength would be terrifying. Even the Wanjian Pavilion and the Ancient Star Sect at their peak would not be able to resist them, let alone Luo Yun.
Although after the two sects worked together, they would have to split the spoils of the battle. However, there would be no mistakes and there would not be any mistakes.
Gu Xuanfeng was also a little tempted.
The foundations of the Wanjian Pavilion and the Ancient Star Sect were too great and would definitely attract the attention of countless people. Once the Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Wind Palace worked together, they would be able to intimidate everyone and have the absolute advantage.
More importantly, after the two sects worked together, in terms of strength, other than the Jiuhan Temple, he would not be afraid of anyone.
"Alright, I agree to cooperate." Gu Xuanfeng nodded in agreement. However, he changed the topic and said, "However, even if the two sects work together, we must be careful and plan everything carefully. Either we don't act at all, or once we act, we must kill Luo Yun and the others and not leave any hidden dangers."
"Lord Gu's words are exactly what I am thinking." Lin Yuanli smiled, his eyes also shining with a cautious light.
