Chapter 489: Pride and Prejudice (1)
Chapter 489 Pride and Prejudice (1)
Sword Immortal Gu Qing resigned to Qiandeng Town. This news made many people in Qiandeng Town puzzled, including the seven sects and eight sects and some aristocratic families.
The news that the unknowable place of the Underworld is in the Black Territory has already spread throughout the Jianghu. Many people have gone to the Black Territory to find out, but the reaction of the Xing Tian Mansion also made those martial arts people understand that the Xing Tian Mansion is unwilling to intervene. In the battle between good and evil, it cannot be regarded as neutral, and it is impossible to help decent.
Speaking of it, it is more likely to help the Demon Dao. After all, the reason why Canglan Sword Sect Zhao Shanhe and Gu Qingci fought in Baidi City was because the disciples of Canglan Sword Sect went to the black domain to find traces of the underworld and clashed with Xing Tianfu. This was just one of the biggest troubles. During that period of time, these righteous people in the Jianghu caused so much trouble to Xing Tianfu.
If we only talk about grievances, the friction between Xingtianfu and Zhengdao Wulin is not even the slightest bit.
Because of this, when the news of Gu Qing’s resignation to Qiandeng Town spread, the reactions of various forces were different, and it caused a small sensation in Qiandeng Town for a while.
However, these have nothing to do with Gu Qingci.
That day, when he and Liu Yiqing visited Qiandeng Town at night, when they were talking about Tsing Yi, he had some insights.
Mu Yiyu of Xuannv Palace is a smart person. When she learned that Gu Qing had resigned from the retreat, she took the disciples of Xuannv Palace and left directly. At the same time, she also persuaded other people in the inn to give up the inn to Xingtianfu.
Gu Qing resigned to retreat, and the disciples of Xingtian Mansion guarded it, and declined all visits.
Until the evening of the tenth day of the eighth lunar month, Liu Yunxiu, head of Langya Sword Sect, Xuci, abbot of Daguangming Temple, and Master Confessor, head of Cihang Jianzhai Lecture Hall, visited together, and Gu Qingci announced his departure.
These three are not just three masters, but represent the entire orthodox martial arts world. They visited jointly. I am afraid that there are not many people in the world who receive this kind of treatment.
These three are all masters. Sitting in the inn, it seems as if they have completely integrated into this world. Each of them is truly back to basics. Except for Master Chanyun who is extremely attractive because of her appearance, the other two They all looked like an ordinary middle-aged man and a kind-hearted old monk.
Seeing Gu Qingci going downstairs, Xuci and the three of them all looked at each other, but they didn't speak when they looked at Gu Qingci.
It's not that they rely on their status and think that Gu Qingci is a junior, but because Gu Qingci's status is a bit special, they don't know whether Gu Qingci came to Qiandeng Town this time as a Marquis of the Great Xia Wushuang, who is walking in the Three Kingdoms, or whether he came to Qiandeng Town. The identity of the sword fairy.
Gu Qingci also understood their thoughts, walked over, cupped his hands and said: "Junior Gu Qingci, I have met a few seniors."
When Gu Qingci walked in, the three masters were slightly shocked in their hearts. They were sure that Gu Qingci was definitely not a master anymore. Gu Qingci's strength had always been a mystery, and many people were speculating that Gu Qingci might have quietly entered Otherwise, his combat power would be too terrifying, including people from the seven sects and eight sects.
However, when Gu Qingci approached, these masters who are already back to basics can clearly perceive that Gu Qingci is still just a great practitioner, but they are amazed that Gu Qingci is the same as that of this world. This kind of affinity is actually stronger than them.
If they hadn't observed carefully, they would subconsciously think that this was an ordinary scholar. The feeling of spring breeze was not because of his advanced cultivation, but the aura emanating from the inside, which made people feel that he was full of poetry and books at a glance.
"Amitabha," Xu Ci saluted the Buddha, and said: "Congratulations to Sword Immortal for studying and becoming a Taoist, the heaven and the earth resonate, and soon, the world will welcome another great Confucian."
"Master's praise." Gu Qingci said.
After exchanging pleasantries, several people sat down again.
Based on the cultivation of the four people in the inn, they have already transcended the mortal body. Even if they just sit face to face, no one deliberately observes the outside.
However, Gu Qingci sighed a little. Master Chanyun's reaction was beyond his expectation. The conflict between him and Cihang Jianzhai was not once or twice. Cihang Jianzhai suffered a lot in his hands. In the first seat of the Discipline Hall, a master has already fallen into his hands, so I heard that the Excalibur is still hanging on the head of Baidi City.
When he knew that someone from Cihang Jianzhai was coming, Gu Qingci subconsciously felt that the domineering behavior of Cihang Jianzhai might be done again today, at least, there would be some bad atmosphere.
However, Mrs. Chanyun's reaction was very strange. She sat quietly opposite Gu Qingci, with a slight smile on her brows and eyes, and there was always a touch of compassion and sadness on her body. Bodhisattva feeling.
"Amitabha," Master Chanyun said softly, "Young Master Gu, this poor nun is here today with Head Master Liu and Master Xuci, and he is here on behalf of the orthodox martial arts, not in my personal capacity. Don't worry too much, my lord. , As for other things, the past has come to an end, so please don't take it to heart, my lord."
Gu Qingci smiled calmly and said, "Thank you, Master, for your guidance."
Actually, Gu Qingci was a little puzzled. Cihang Jianzhai was able to do the thing of choosing the emperor on behalf of the heavens.
At this time, Xu Ci looked at Liu Yunxiu and nodded slightly.
Liu Yunxiu understood, and said: "Young master Gu, speaking of it, you and Gouzi are inseparable, and your mother Jinniang and I are also brothers and sisters, so I ask you to call you a good nephew."
Gu Qingci cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Liu, my nephew is being polite."
A smile bloomed on Liu Yunxiu's face, and he said: "Since that's the case, I won't beat around the bush, nephew Gu Xian, today I came to look for you with Master Xuci and Master Chanyun, just want to ask one thing, You also know that your Xingtian Mansion is a bit special, and your identity is also a bit special, and now that you appear in Qiandeng Town, many fellow martial artists have some doubts."
Gu Qingci nodded, and said: "My nephew understands, but my nephew is a little negligent. I came to this desert this time to fight against demons, but please rest assured, I am not a complete Jianghu person, let alone I'm not a member of the Demonic Way, but, as a practitioner, I really can't bear to miss this grand martial arts event that I haven't encountered in hundreds of years. If I have other purposes, I wouldn't bring just a few people here, please rest assured."
Abbot Xuci clasped his hands together, and said: "Young Master Gu is unparalleled in his promise, and we can certainly trust you. I came here today just to seek peace of mind. Thank you, Young Master!"
