I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 331: The Star of Destiny Shines!

Since this happened right before his eyes, Gu Heng had to make connections.

If the system assigns these tasks, it means that the "destined stars" are not far away from him, or may come to his side at any time.

Regarding Bai Feier, Gu Heng leans towards the first guess.

For example, meeting her in Qingmu City was a kind of "coincidence" that even Gu Heng couldn't understand. And this kind of "coincidence" was most likely the system's doing, or rather, such coincidences really do exist in the world...

However, in the end, Gu Heng was just a guess.

After all, Bai Feier might not even know what secrets she holds, so asking would be pointless, except...

Gu Heng glanced silently at Jiang Lingyun, who looked delighted beside him.

She was overjoyed.

To be honest, Gu Heng didn't quite understand how outstanding or capable Bai Feier really was, but Jiang Lingyun certainly did. So, seeing how happy she was, Gu Heng could deduce that Bai Feier must be extraordinary!

and.

Jiang Lingyun asked him yesterday if he knew about the "Seven Destiny Stars".

If he could, Gu Heng really wanted to get this secret out of him.

The system's secrets are not easy to extract; by comparison, Jiang Lingyun might be able to tell him some secrets.

But Gu Heng didn't really care about these things. As long as it wasn't something bad, he didn't need to worry too much about other people's business.

The main reason is that the system also offers rewards, which makes it impossible to refuse.

The "Sword Mastery" quest will give Gu Heng ten "Temporary Cultivation Experience Tickets." With these, Gu Heng can ensure that he has the ability to protect himself when he encounters danger.

Otherwise, as an ordinary mortal, if he wanted to travel the world and broaden his horizons, the dangers would actually be even greater than those of Tang Sanzang and his disciples' journey to the West.

As for other items available in the system shop, and the rewards from the previous "Ignite the Red Line" quest, Gu Heng hadn't had a chance to check them.

Now... is not the time to watch.

The atmosphere in the hall was wonderful, with delicious food and wine on the table. Gu Heng was hungry anyway, so he decided to eat first.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

We've almost eaten and drunk our fill.

Liu Yu returned to the Liu residence, Qin Yiyao went back to her room to rest, and Gu Heng and Jiang Lingyun sat in the courtyard outside, drinking and singing, discussing everyday matters. Bai Feier sat obediently beside them, occasionally refilling the jade wine cup in Jiang Lingyun's hand on the recliner.

Gu Heng was so envious!

Look at other people's apprentices!

The master leaned back in his recliner, gazing at the moon and chatting, while his disciple served him attentively as a wine server.

And his little girl... sigh, never mind.

Everyone has their own dreams and lives a wonderful life.

Gu Heng sighed inwardly and tilted his head back to gulp down a mouthful of wine.

However, Gu Heng is actually not very good at being served. If he really wanted Qin Yiyao to serve him, he would have done it a long time ago, but he just couldn't bring himself to ask.

He is better at taking care of others than having others serve him.

Hearing the sigh, Jiang Lingyun turned to look at him and asked, "Why do you keep sighing?"

"I didn't sigh, you're mistaken."

"is it?"

Jiang Lingyun stared at him for a long time.

She was certain she hadn't misread it.

But since Gu Heng was unwilling to admit it, Jiang Lingyun didn't bother to expose him.

"Speaking of which, since your senior brother is willing to stay with me, you won't be lonely, will you?"

Gu Heng asked her with a smile.

"Hmm?" Jiang Lingyun blinked in confusion. After understanding what Gu Heng said, she turned her face away, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Well, actually, I've been thinking about him all these years, and no other man has caught my eye... so, it doesn't matter."

"I'm willing to come back whenever Senior Brother Xuan wants," Gu Heng said, looking at her shy expression.

He began to envy Jian Xuan.

There is such a deeply affectionate junior sister in the world, who has preserved her chastity for over four thousand years...

I'm not going to talk about this anymore; the more I talk, the more envious I become.

Gu Heng silently poured more wine into his glass.

The sweet wine cools you down as it goes down your throat.

"Fei'er, take me to meet your family tomorrow. After all, I'm going to take you away to the sect for training, so it's only right and proper to inform them first."

Jiang Lingyun said.

Although Bai Feier hesitated for a moment, she still nodded.

"I don't know what it is about me that attracted you, but I've hit a bottleneck in my cultivation. I wonder if Master could enlighten me?"

She looked serious. "Tell me about it."

Jiang Lingyun also became interested.

Then, Bai Feier rubbed her fingers together and conjured a short, silvery-white sword beam. Gu Heng looked over to see what interesting things the two of them could come up with.

"This power... I don't fully understand it."

Bai Feier lowered her eyes with a hint of annoyance.

“It is a part of me, but it is out of my control… I feel like it is incomplete. I try to integrate it with my sword techniques, but I fail every time.”

Jiang Lingyun pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled.

Does her disciple never know just how extraordinary her talent truly is?

At such an age, she has already grasped the essence of swordsmanship and is still not satisfied; she has already begun to want to incorporate the essence of swordsmanship into her sword moves?

When Jiang Lingyun did this back then, she was already at the Tribulation Transcending stage.

But Bai Feier, with only the cultivation of the tenth level of the Nascent Soul stage, wants to do this?

He truly is a prodigy among prodigies.

"Hehe, fine, once I take you back to the sect, you'll see just how powerful you are. But for now..."

Jiang Lingyun stroked Bai Feier's fair wrist and whispered, "I will impart a trace of my insights to you. How much you can comprehend is up to you."

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Heng saw her lightly raise her right palm. A glimmer of light flashed between Bai Feier's brows, followed by a faint spiritual mist emanating from between her brows.

But an even more astonishing change was about to occur.

On Bai Feier's forehead.

The two faint rays of light intertwined, eventually transforming into a complex and indistinct pattern! "Buzz—"

It sounded like a muffled thunderclap.

At the same time, the sky suddenly changed!

Dark clouds surged, and lightning bolts danced wildly.

A faint silvery-white light peeks through the dark clouds of the night.

A sound like swords clashing and roaring seemed to echo in the air!

Gu Heng and Jiang Lingyun looked up at the same time and saw a star shining brightly in the night!

"This……"

Jiang Lingyun was stunned.

That is... the Heavenly Sword Destiny Star!

The Heavenly Sword Destiny Star's karma has actually awakened at this moment?!
