Half-saint Withered Grass's mouth twitched.
Pretentious!
This Elixir Emperor was too pretentious!
Half-saint Withered Grass was sure that Gu Xuan had guessed that he had an ulterior motive the moment he announced his intention to join the Ying Tian Sect.
Otherwise, why would a Half-saint like him come here and say that he wanted to join the Ying Tian Sect?
There was a curse on his body and his lifespan was about to run out. However, as long as he was willing, he could join other secluded factions with Elixir Emperors and receive the same treatment.
Although he did not know if there were any Elixir Emperors in the secluded factions, there were definitely Elixir Emperors in the secluded families.
The lifespan of an Elixir Emperor, even an ordinary Great Emperor, was much longer than that of a Half-saint.
Moreover, the Crimson Moon Mountain Sect was a second-rate faction with a Quasi-sage.
It was not impossible for such an existence to remove the curse on his body and get something that could increase his lifespan.
Half-saint Withered Grass had told Gu Xuan so much about the secluded factions, the Burning Sky Continent, and the Three Thousand Worlds just to show Gu Xuan his point of view.
He did not come here solely for the elixir that the Ying Tian Sect could provide.
He came here to do a favor for the Elixir Emperor. He had another motive!
He did not expect Gu Xuan to roll his eyes and pretend that he did not understand anything. This made Half-saint Withered Grass go crazy.
If he had known this, he would not have told Gu Xuan that he had another motive.
Wouldn't it be better if everyone knew?
The moment he said it, the atmosphere became awkward.
What was even more awkward was that he had only said half of it. Should he say the other half now?
Half-saint Withered Grass cleared his throat and was about to say it when he saw Gu Xuan's mocking eyes. He felt uncomfortable.
"Hmph! If I say it just because you asked me to, wouldn't I lose face?
My motive is simple. With Sect Leader Gu Xuan's wisdom, you can definitely guess it. Sect Leader, please make a guess.
After the Dao Sect, if you can't guess it, you can ask me for advice. "
Gu Xuan's mouth twitched.
Why did Half-saint Withered Grass change his face like a child?
It was simply baffling, alright?!
What did he mean by 'with my wisdom, I can definitely guess'?
If he guessed wrong, wouldn't that mean that he had no intelligence?
If I can't guess it, why should I ask you for advice?
Could the word 'consult' be used in this way?
If you don't say it, this Sect Master won't be willing to listen!
In any case, Gu Xuan had already made the Heavenly Oath. He wasn't afraid that the Withered Grass Semi Sage would try to cheat him. In any case, he would definitely fulfill his promise.
Gu Xuan didn't care at all about what other motives Semi-saint Withered Grass had.
In any case, it was definitely not a good thing.
Otherwise, there was no need for him to do him a favor.
Gu Xuan snorted and didn't say anything else. Since Half-step Sage Withered Grass didn't give him any face, he naturally wouldn't give him any face either.
Mo Jingyun's eyebrows twitched as he watched.
What the hell is this?
Why were these two people laughing and giggling just a moment ago, but now they were acting as if they were ignoring each other?
Demi-Sage Withered Grass randomly found a sentry tower and flew to the top. He sat down cross-legged and began to meditate.
In Half-step Sage Withered Grass's opinion, his main mission this time was to do a favor.
With Ying Tianzong's weak strength, it was impossible for them to be a match for Daoism. However, with him in charge, Ying Tianzong could at least ensure that Ying Tianzong wouldn't be destroyed.
To Ying Tianzong, this was a huge favor.
Of course, Gu Xuan didn't know what he was thinking. Otherwise, Gu Xuan might have immediately beaten this old man up to let him know that Ying Tianzong wasn't as weak as he thought.
Gu Xuan frowned and recounted everything that had happened to Half-step Sage Withered Grass since he came here.
"I see. Looks like it's not far from the truth. Since he had come with a body full of curses, he had deliberately revealed his lifespan. I guess he wants to help Ying Tianzong and ask me to go to Crimson Moon Mountain Gate to save someone. "
Gu Xuan guessed.
"The person who needs my help has a curse that's much stronger than the one in Half-step Sage Withered Grass.
Moreover, that person's remaining lifespan is much shorter than that of Half-step Sage Withered Grass.
It seems that Half-step Sage Withered Grass came here to test my ability. For a Half-step Sage to test me, the person who really needs my help must be of a high status. "
It was a pity that Gu Xuan didn't know much about the situation in Crimson Moon Mountain Gate. Otherwise, he could have guessed the identity of the person who really needed his help with these clues.
However, if he couldn't guess, then so be it. Anyway, he didn't have the time to go to Crimson Moon Mountain Gate to save someone, let alone the obligation.
As for the favor that Half-step Sage Withered Grass wanted to do, it was just his wishful thinking.
With or without him, it wouldn't affect the overall situation much.
Just as Gu Xuan was thinking, the first batch of alchemists and martial artists who joined finally finished registering.
Previously, Gu Xuan didn't care about the identities of these people. All of them had made a Heavenly Oath. Now, everyone was in a mutually beneficial employment relationship.
The Elder of Technique Imparting brought the new martial artists to a specially prepared hall and started to explain some things that they needed to pay attention to.
There weren't many secrets in Ying Tianzong, but there were also some places that these martial artists were absolutely forbidden to go.
Gongsun Shan Shan brought the group of alchemists and similarly went to a special residence.
That place was not far from the location of the divine earth's medicinal fields. Spiritual energy was abundant. There were even many medicinal herbs planted in the surroundings. It was considered a blessed land specially provided for alchemists to rest.
After the group of alchemists settled down, Gongsun Shan Shan even personally went to the divine earth's medicinal fields and invited three stalks of Medicine Ancestors for the group of alchemists to take a look.
Furthermore, the alchemists were allowed to trade freely with the Medicine Ancestors. However, it had to be carried out under the supervision of Ying Tianzong's elders.
Even so, the alchemists seemed to have gone mad too, taking out treasures that could attract the Medicine Ancestors and using this to exchange for the Medicine Ancestors' roots, branches, leaves, flowers, and other good things.
The Medicine Ancestors were full of treasures from head to toe. To the vast majority of alchemists, those were all top-notch good things.
This made the vanity of the three stalks of Medicine Ancestors obtain tremendous satisfaction. They never thought that a random flower that was about to wither or a yellow leaf that was about to fall on their bodies could become a treasure in the eyes of alchemists.
The moment the three stalks of Medicine Ancestors returned to the divine earth's medicinal fields, they recounted their encounters.
Immediately, the rest of the fellows whose vanity did not get satisfied requested to go out and show their faces too.
