Chapter 719 Yan Hongluo: What a load of rubbish, this honest gentleman!
"Is it weird?"
Gu Qing smiled and said, "The inheritance is of little use to me, as is the essence of the Great Dao."
He has sculpted himself into an indestructible golden body of the Great Dao, a body of the Great Dao that is perfect and flawless, something that the Great Dao essence condensed by that great being could not help him with.
At most, it's just icing on the cake, a slightly higher-grade cultivation resource.
"..."
I feel like I've been tricked by Gu Qing.
Yan Hongluo felt both happy for Gu Qing and a little heartbroken.
The legacy that others were obsessed with was utterly insignificant in Gu Qing's eyes.
"Actually, you don't have to go. Just stay by my side and be a pig, and you'll get great fortune."
"The fact that Hongluan and Yaoyao were able to break through to the sixth level of God Emperor so quickly is the most powerful proof that the greatness of the Celestials needs no further explanation."
Gu Qing suddenly stroked her cold, stern cheek and said with a meaningful smile.
Yan Hongluo was taken aback, then said angrily, "Are you insulting me?"
"Isn't this what you said, Crimson Demon Emperor?" Gu Qing tugged at her cheek.
To be honest, Yan Hongluo's haughty and disdainful appearance has a unique feel to it when you pinch it.
"I did say that, but how could you take it seriously?"
"I am an honest gentleman..."
"Pooh……"
Yan Hongluo spat. He'd already stuck his fingers into her mouth. And he called himself an honest gentleman?
Gu Qing led people into the boundless space.
……
"Hongluan, where are we going?"
Yao Yao didn't want to leave; she wanted to snuggle in Gu Qing's arms like a little fox.
"Silly Master, didn't you see that Sister Hongluo is a completely different person ever since she was brought back by that little rascal?"
Hongluan poked her master's smooth forehead in exasperation.
"What's the difference?"
Yao Yao froze, her fluffy fox ears standing up, looking adorably silly.
Yao Yao didn't think Yan Hongluo was any different.
After returning, he diligently cultivated his skills, and as soon as he emerged from seclusion, he sought out opponents for duels.
This is the same as before, okay?
"Fine, I'll just be blunt!"
Hongluan slapped her forehead. She was crazy to expect her foolish master to discover something.
"Do you remember when Sister Hongluo asked us why our cultivation level improved so quickly, and she looked so envious?"
"Isn't it normal to be envious?" Yao Yao asked, puzzled.
After refining the essence of heaven and man that Gu Qing passed on to them, they immediately achieved enlightenment, their cultivation level increased dramatically, and their physique, soul, and magic power all reached their ultimate sublimation.
It directly transformed their height by several notches.
Such a great fortune, who wouldn't envy it?
"It is normal, but her frequent coming out of seclusion and her often spacing out are very abnormal."
"Sister Hongluo is clearly thinking about her little darling and waiting for him to come back, so she often goes out of seclusion, not wanting to miss the opportunity to see her little darling."
Hongluan looked wise. When she thought that the arrogant and domineering Queen Hongluo had finally become like them, her beautiful eyes lit up.
"Ah...I see."
Yao Yao blushed and instinctively covered her face, her nine fluffy fox tails enveloping her.
Hongluan: "..."
Forget it!
It was all for nothing.
Hongluan dragged her foolish master to the Heavenly Thunder Purgatory.
The old man guarding the Heavenly Thunder Purgatory, upon seeing the two, immediately perked up from his drowsy state.
He stroked his long, white beard and chuckled, "What wind blew you two little girls here?"
"Hongluan, Yaoyao, pay your respects to Elder Xing."
The two bowed respectfully.
This seemingly unassuming old man is actually a saint at the ninth level of enlightenment, named Xing Rong, who guards the nine great purgatory of the Star God Sect.
Moreover, he was an old minister who had followed the Star Mother from the Eternal Universe to the Origin Continent, having fought countless battles throughout his life and possessing boundless supernatural powers.
Although they have Gu Qing as their backer, they are ultimately not Gu Qing. When they encounter someone strong, they naturally have to maintain sufficient respect.
Having obtained the token of the Heavenly Thunder Purgatory, the two appeared in the Heavenly Thunder Purgatory with impunity. The destructive lightning that filled the sky seemed to have eyes, and took the initiative to avoid the two.
"you……"
Fang Jixuan's eyes widened in fury when he saw the two of them, but when he saw Hongluan looking at him coldly, he felt as if he had been choked, and the words that were on the tip of his tongue got stuck in his throat.
"How dare you deceive even us?"
Hongluan's captivating eyes flashed with a cold light, and her red dress accentuated her like a peerless female demon.
"Senior Sister, what do you mean by that?" Fang Jixuan's pupils shrank suddenly as she tried to remain calm.
"You're about to die, and you still want to play dumb? Fine, I'll search your soul and then throw you into the Soul Refining Hell. Let's see how long you can keep up your stubbornness."
Hongluan's voice was cold and sharp. After speaking, she was about to step forward to search the soul.
They secretly recorded it using a photographic stone.
"no, do not want……"
Hearing that he would be subjected to soul-searching and imprisoned in the Soul-Refining Hell, he was deeply moved.
Fang Jixuan was almost scared out of his wits.
The Star God Cult knows how terrifying the Soul Refining Hell is.
After all, it imprisoned countless disciples who had committed heinous crimes, as well as powerful figures who were enemies of the Star God Cult.
A wisp of true soul, burned for endless years, unable to live, unable to die.
It is precisely because of the existence of the Soul Refining Hell that countless powerful enemies on the Origin Continent have been deterred, and the followers dare not betray them in any way.
"Senior sister, I'll talk, I'll talk, please let me off the hook."
Fang Jixuan was so scared he almost peed his pants.
He had no doubt that Hongluan had the ability to send him to the Soul Refining Hell.
He was terrified of death and would rather die than enter the Soul Refining Hell.
“I can tell that the great seal is a ninth-order Dao artifact, and the damaged divine tower is a seventh-order Dao artifact. As for the token, I can’t tell, but I think it’s a treasure, so I wanted to trade it for it and take it back to my family to have the elders of the Saint Clan take a look.”
Fang Jixuan was, after all, the protagonist of the Destiny. Although he was frightened, he was not so frightened that he collapsed.
They quickly came up with the most favorable argument for themselves.
Fang Jixuan suspected that Hongluan hadn't recognized the three treasures at all; it was just that his actions aroused the suspicion of the three people, leading them to guess that the three treasures were indeed treasures.
Therefore, he only mentioned the first two things to gain Hongluan's trust, as for the preaching order.
He would never say it unless absolutely necessary.
Fang Jixuan clearly hadn't given up on the Order of Preaching.
"You come from a family of saints?"
Hongluan paused, surprised, and asked.
"No."
Speaking of his family, Fang Jixuan couldn't help but reveal a proud look in his eyes: "I am the direct descendant of the Fang family, the Cuckoo Bird family."
"what?"
Upon hearing this, the two women's expressions changed drastically.
The Fang family of the cuckoo birds—this is the ruling god family that dominates the Origin Continent.
"I am Fang Jixuan, the only legitimate son of the Fang family patriarch."
Although Fang Jixuan resented his family for abandoning him so ruthlessly, he was always proud to have such a powerful family.
Once he returns to his family, he will be the most revered divine son of the Origin Continent, and even saints who transcend worldly affairs will treat him with utmost respect.
"I remember the Fang family has a rule that disciples who are training outside are not allowed to reveal their identities, no matter how noble their status is, right?"
"Once it is revealed, it will be considered a failure of the training, and the person will be taken back to the family and kicked out of the core training sequence."
Hongluan narrowed her beautiful eyes, her eyes gleaming, and she had already come to believe Fang Jixuan's words.
After all, Fang Jixuan could be someone who drew Gu Qing's personal attention; he must be someone simple.
Her talk of searching the soul and then throwing it into the Soul Refining Hell was just an attempt to scare Fang Jixuan.
However, Fang Jixuan is really not honest.
If they still want to hide the Preaching Order now, it's probably because they haven't given up on it.
That's fine too. If Fang Jixuan doesn't say anything, she can just pretend she doesn't know.
"This..." Fang Jixuan's face twisted in anger, filled with resentment.
He had been a useless person in the Star God Cult for so many years, enduring all kinds of bullying and humiliation.
Now that he has finally risen to prominence, and with the battle for the throne among the nine princes about to begin, as long as he defeats his opponent, he can become the Fang family's divine son and receive the family's full support and guidance.
In truth, Fang Jixuan had his own calculations when he gave the three of them the newly made Divine Beauty Pill.
His first goal was to obtain those three treasures, and his second goal was to befriend the three people so that the Starry Sky Cult could help him seize the throne.
That's right. The Fang family's struggle for succession among nine princes allowed other forces to assist them.
One can imagine that if everything goes smoothly, and he obtains the Dao Transmission Order, receives the inheritance of an unparalleled master, and has the support of the Star God Sect, he will surely shine brightly in the Nine Princes' Succession Struggle and win the championship in one fell swoop.
But all of this was ruined by the demon in front of him.
How could Fang Jixuan not hate this?
"explain."
Hongluan said sternly, "Don't think you can scare me by bringing up the Fang family. I, Hongluan, am not easily frightened."
"Believe it or not, even if I kill you, the Fang family will be powerless against me?"
"If you know what's good for you, confess your purpose for coming to the Star God Sect. Otherwise, you're definitely going to the Soul Refining Hell. I, Hongluan, said that no one can save you."
Fang Jixuan's expression shifted as he pondered how much of Hongluan's words were true and how much were false.
He was somewhat skeptical, as the Red Phoenix was not even afraid of the cuckoo.
After all, the Cuckoo Clan is not only powerful, but also vindictive and extremely domineering and protective of their own.
He revealed his identity in order to use his family to intimidate Hongluan, force her to leave the Heavenly Thunder Purgatory, and then plot the preaching order.
"Speak up. There's no point in hiding anything now. Besides, she has the sect leader backing her up, so her backing is no weaker than his."
"Furthermore, if the Star Mother had not returned, perhaps the family would have been wary of the Fang family, but now that the Star Mother has returned, it is your Fang family that should be wary."
Old Dan sighed helplessly.
He could tell that the Fang family placed Fang Jixuan in the Starry Sky Cult for foster care because the Starry Sky Holy Mother was not in the cult.
Now that she's back, everything is uncertain.
If things escalate, it's uncertain who will seek retribution.
"how is this possible?"
Fang Jixuan broke down. Although his family had ruthlessly abandoned him, he had always been proud of his family.
The Fang family of the cuckoo bird clan is a family of innate gods and demons. Their ancestor is a supreme god who has reached the third level of perfection. There are countless celestial beings and saintly ancestors in the clan.
Moreover, it possesses nine major Dao states and countless vassal forces, including many of the twelve star Dao lineages.
In addition, the Fang family has good relations with many ruling gods and has always had marriage alliances with them.
His mother was the goddess who ruled the divine lineage.
Even someone as powerful as the Fang family, he didn't believe the Star God Cult would dare to start a war with them.
"You don't actually think the Starry Sky Cult's three thousand provinces were given to you by someone else, do you? You don't actually think the Starry Sky Saint Mother is really a saint, do you?"
Dan Lao seemed to have seen through Fang Jixuan's thoughts, and with a disdainful sneer, immediately poured cold water on him.
"I don't know if the Star God Church will go to war with your Fang family, but I'm sure your Fang family would never dare to go to war with the Star God Church. If you die in the Star God Church, you'll only have died in vain."
