I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity
Chapter 124 - 115: I Am My Own Faction! (Double-Length)
"I was wrong, Senior Brother Gu, it was Rujing’s mistake. I shouldn’t have been bewitched by Su Huazheng, please spare me this time!"
Above the clouds, Si Rujing looked at Gu Yuan who was gracefully approaching, unable to help but plead in a soft voice.
In the past, as the senior sister of the Qi Refining Realm at Ruyi Peak, she had never lowered herself to beg anyone, but this time, she had no choice.
The young man before her had strength that was too terrifying.
In just a dozen breaths, he defeated four top experts from the Seven Clans of the noble families in the Qi Refining generation, and she was captured in an instant when she made a move. This level of skill had far surpassed others at the same level. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
She couldn’t think of a way to win, and the Spiritual Qi in the secret realm concerned her future, so she had to bow her head.
"Crack!"
But Gu Yuan just waved his hand, and her limbs were broken, her meridians filled with a large amount of Sword Qi, unable to gather mana. With a pale face, she then fell from the clouds into the Great River.
The same happened to Xiao Yi.
Thus, a "siege battle" by the Seven Clans against Gu Yuan was completely over.
In the vast secret realm, there was a sudden silence.
Bian Chuyao and Feng Anping looked at Gu Yuan with complex expressions, momentarily unsure of what to say.
"It’s a pity that the Spiritual Qi and Tokens allocated at the Flowing Cloud Banquet are bound and cannot be separated, otherwise things wouldn’t have to be this troublesome..."
But Gu Yuan didn’t seem to care, only looking at the "Vitality of the Azure Sea" above the Great River and sighing slightly.
"All these people have acquired Spiritual Qi and have the potential to establish a Foundation. Aren’t you afraid that offending them so severely will make it difficult to handle in the future?"
After a while, Bian Chuyao collected her thoughts and asked Gu Yuan with a complicated expression.
She never expected the situation to turn out this way today.
The malice of the Seven Clans against humble lineages was beyond her expectations, and Gu Yuan’s formidable strength was even more surprising.
The once-arrogant talents of the noble families seemed no different from ordinary disciples in his hands, easily dealt with.
She even suspected that without the two of them, Gu Yuan could have resolved today’s conflict.
This evil person seemed stronger than before.
She originally thought that after consuming the Flowing Flame Golden Fruit, she could surpass him, but now it seems she was overthinking.
At the same time, she felt a strong curiosity about Gu Yuan. How did he do it?
But such taboo questions, she naturally wouldn’t ask too much, only worried that his methods today were a bit harsh and might lead to bad consequences.
"These kinds of people cannot be friends; you either make them submit or completely suppress them."
"Without harsh methods, they wouldn’t remember today."
"Moreover... in the future, I myself am the peak, what need do I have to fear them?"
Gu Yuan shook his head, indifferent.
The Daoist School arranged this struggle in the secret realm and did not restrict methods, which already explained many issues.
The strong remain strong, the weak remain weak, and the winner takes all.
As long as he can seize enough Spiritual Qi, he can have a sturdy foundation and become a new power at the Daoist School.
As long as the Golden Core doesn’t intervene, Gu Yuan doesn’t fear six Foundation Establishments.
Thinking of the Golden Core, he showed a gentle smile on his face, saying to Bian Chuyao and Feng Anping:
"Thank you both for your help today. Don’t worry, today’s secret realm is ours. The Feng and Bian families can certainly cultivate more Foundation Establishment Cultivators, strengthening their doors and increasing their foundation!"
Making enemies everywhere is not wise, having friends is also necessary.
The Bian and Feng families are both big families, united on the same front, which can eliminate many troubles.
Gu Yuan alone is a standout, very noticeable, but with Bian Chuyao and Feng Anping behind him, they become a peak, a new force.
"Senior Brother Gu’s methods are unparalleled. Today, my Feng family benefited. Naturally, the collection of Spiritual Qi should be led by Senior Brother Gu."
Feng Anping was still a bit dazed.
He had originally followed Bian Chuyao out of curiosity, ready to witness the flair of this humble lineage talent with a spectator’s mindset.
After all, he usually interacted with the noble family disciples and had grown somewhat tired of it.
But this encounter revealed the birth of a fierce tiger flood dragon.
Moreover, the Spiritual Qi in the secret realm could be gathered at will?
This was like suddenly ascending to the peak while on an outing.
But he wasn’t a fool. After today, he was somewhat tied to Gu Yuan, so naturally, he needed to build a good relationship.
In the secret realm, Gu Yuan should naturally lead.
After all, Gu Yuan was no longer an ordinary Qi Refining disciple. Once out of the secret realm, he’d be a Foundation Establishment, with multiple Spiritual Qi, a Foundation Establishment Peak.
Such a character, even Golden Core families want to recruit!
"Senior Brother Gu, my Feng family has a legitimate daughter with an Eight-Aperture Body and extraordinary beauty. I wonder if Senior Brother is interested in marriage?"
Thinking of this, Feng Anping glanced at Bian Chuyao, then finally spoke.
Bian Chuyao’s expression froze but she held her tongue, waiting for Gu Yuan’s answer.
"Thank you for your kind offer, Junior Brother Feng, but without achieving the Great Dao, I have no intention to marry!"
Gu Yuan shook his head, answering firmly.
Marrying a noble family girl would bind him too closely.
"Then how about taking a concubine?"
"Our Feng family has many daughters, Senior Brother Gu can choose at will. They don’t seek status, as long as they can serve Senior Brother by your side!"
Feng Anping spoke again, adopting a humbler stance.
This time, Bian Chuyao couldn’t hold back, interrupting: "What use are concubines? If Senior Brother is interested, I can gift a batch of Shell Maidens, all with top beauty, graceful and very loyal..."
