Half an hour later.
Gu Heng looked at Yin Xueling's paintings in the yard and nodded with satisfaction.
"Well, that's good. It seems that you have learned a lot from studying with these days."
"Master Gu taught well. I have only learned the basics."
Yin Xueling smiled happily. Thanks to Master Gu's teachings, Yin Xueling felt that her understanding of the Tao had beco more and more profound.
Although she is not yet his disciple, Gu Heng is a noble man whom she will never et again in her life.
"I really want to leave the deserted city and go out for a look."
Of course, her strength was improving, but staying in the deserted city all day long ant that no matter how much she improved, she didn't even have an opponent to challenge. Yin Xueling couldn't say that she didn't feel depressed.
Quite depressing.
Soon, Yin Rufeng and Si Chen both returned to the courtyard, but Si Chen suddenly walked up to Gu Heng and bowed solemnly: "I greet Mr. Gu. Mr. Gu ca to settle in the deserted city, but I have been so slow to co and pay my respects. This is really disrespectful!"
"Oh, there's no need for such a big ceremony, old man."
Seeing another big shot from a big family saluting him, Gu Heng was the one who did not dare to be negligent and quickly stood up to return the salute.
It's strange. When Mr. Si Chen ca here just now, he was in a hurry and didn't intend to pay attention to at all. Why is he suddenly so humble now?
I don't know what Yin Rufeng said to him.
"As you should! As you should!"
"I heard from Old Yin that Master Gu is willing to protect my deserted city. This is an unimaginable gift! If I don't express my gratitude, it would be a waste of Master Gu's kindness."
If Si Chen had any doubts about this young man before, after seeing the scroll that Yin Rufeng took out, his doubts had long disappeared.
Si Chen almost went blind after just one look at the scroll, because the Dao rhy in the painting was too powerful. Even a tiny bit of it almost made Si Chen, who was at the peak of Yuanxian, lose his eyes. If he unfolded the painting completely and let the Dao aning in the scroll burst out completely...
Si Chen couldn't even imagine it.
How powerful that force would be.
The painting that he drew in just one night alone had such a powerful force. Even Yin Rufeng broke through the realm directly after just taking a look at it and sensing a hint of the Tao... Then how powerful is Gu Heng?
It's even more unexpected.
Only then did Si Chen realize that he had been in seclusion for hundreds of years, imrsed in cultivation, but he had no idea that the truly powerful people actually settled here.
Of course, it won't work if we don't humble ourselves.
"Mr. Si, you are too serious. This matter is not that difficult to explain. I just want this place to be peaceful."
Gu Heng shook his head.
It seems that this old man Si is similar to Yin Rufeng. They both feel that there may be a big chaos outside, so they start to worry that the deserted city will get into trouble.
To put it bluntly, it's just groundless worry.
He had already analyzed that even if the Xiaoxuantian Realm and the Demon Realm were really going to go to war, no matter how hard they fought, the war would not spread to the Ancient Wilderness Vein.
Everyone has limited energy, and war is not about drawing a line and pushing forward. Of course, you have to choose strategic locations, then deploy heavy troops, and use all your strength to launch frontal and surprise attacks.
The Ancient Wilderness Vein is not a place worth fighting for at all.
It's really dangerous.
Gu Heng felt that they were at most so bandits and robbers and nothing to worry about.
Mr. Si is covered in calligraphy and ink. I guess he has never practiced in this life and has never seen how dangerous the swords and sabers outside are, so he has this kind of groundless worry.
"That's great! If you need , I will definitely be there for you!"
Si Chen was very serious and looked extrely earnest."Then thank you, Mr. Si."
Gu Heng pointed to the empty seat next to him and said, "Since you're here, would you like a cup of tea?"
"I'm very sorry, but I'm very busy with family affairs. But if you're willing to give a chance, I'll co often in the future!"
Si Chen was startled out of seclusion by Gu Yun's announcent of his birth. Now that he knew there was such a great god in charge of the Deserted City, who even did not take the Xuxian world seriously, he could go back with peace of mind and comprehend the Tao that he had not yet fully comprehended.
But being able to sit at the sa table and drink tea with Mr. Gu was a good thing that Si Chen would never refuse a second ti.
"All right."
Gu Heng didn't care about being rejected. Si Chen said hello and left in a hurry. Yin Rufeng and Yin Xueling also said goodbye and left.
The yard beca quiet again.
"Tsk, it seems that the mystery has been solved?"
As soon as they left, Gu Heng found a quiet environnt and began to think about the question that had been lingering in his mind.
That is, the man who called himself "Gu Yun" and had several titles in the prefix, just made a loudspeaker broadcast to the entire Xuantian Realm. In fact, Gu Heng still keenly grasped the content he wanted from what he said...
Among the tasks released by the system, there is a temporary task called "The Fish that Slipped Through the Net", which ans "to find out the conspiracy of the forces behind the Blood Shadow Building, and take this opportunity to obtain the key information of the task "Xuantian Taboo"!"
But.
The power behind the Blood Shadow Building is the Blood Soul Holy Sect. According to the intelligence gathered by the old man and his gang, the power behind the Blood Soul Holy Sect is the "Evil Cultivator Alliance". In the "War to Punish Evil" that year, the Blood Soul Holy Sect's "betrayal" of the Evil Cultivator Alliance was just a quick thinking and a show.
Although this force has changed its appearance, it is actually still a part of the Evil Cultivator Alliance!
Therefore, the clues gradually revealed more and more forces behind the scenes, from the Blood Shadow Building → Blood Soul Holy Sect → the Evil Cultivator Alliance...
What's behind the evil alliance?
If what the person shouting through the loudspeaker just now said is true.
The "power behind" the evil alliance is the demon world!
The demon world, this is recorded in ancient books, another more powerful world!
Gu Heng felt that when it ca to the Demon Realm, there might not be any behind-the-scenes forces. After all, there were still "forces behind the scenes" above the entire world. Just hearing this made him feel numb all over.
He opened the system interface and saw that the "Task" column was highlighted. He clicked it and saw that the "Slippery Fish" task had been completed!
"Is it actually finished?"
Gu Heng felt strange.
But this was just a temporary task after all, and it shouldn't be complicated. He was just thinking too much.
Click on it.
Then the task is completed, and a line of text pops up from the system:
"The temporary mission 'The Fish That Slipped Through the Net' has been completed. Now we are unlocking key information for the host..."
"The power behind the Blood Shadow Building is the Blood Soul Saint Sect, and the power behind the Blood Soul Saint Sect is the Evil Cultivator Alliance."
"The Evil Cultivation Alliance is a vassal force secretly supported by the Demon Realm in the Xuantian Realm. Their cultivation thods are completely in line with the Demon Realm's cultivation path. The Evil Cultivation Alliance's code of conduct is to provide the greatest help to the Demon Realm... Based on their consistent hostile relationship, the Evil Cultivation Alliance is extrely hostile to the Immortal Realm, and also hates any force whose cultivation thods are in line with the Immortal Realm's cultivation path."
"After all five realms were defeated in the last war, the Demon Realm has never given up its plan to continue to interfere with the Xuantian Realm."
"The purpose of everything is to seize the most ancient and unknown 'secret' of the 'Xuantian Realm'."
So much for the key information.
Read it carefully.
Gu Heng felt that he was suddenly involved in a huge conspiracy.
