I Just Want To Destroy The Sect, But How Did I Become A God Against All Odds Chapter 157: Isn't this surprise a bit too huge?

Both Space Rings were placed on the table, and Chu Xinghe looked utterly defeated.

"Feng Yuzheng... damn it... I give up, alright..."

Feng Yuzheng maintained a serious deanor. Senior Brother Xinghe truly lived up to his reputation. Everyone thought he was genuinely going to Yan City to guide the Firm.

But Feng Yuzheng felt sothing was off.

He quietly stayed hidden within the group.

Sure enough! Feng Yuzheng discovered what was amiss.

In the midst of laughter, Senior Brother Xinghe swapped the Space Rings on his finger without anyone noticing.

Just a bit more! Just a bit more, and Feng Yuzheng was breaking out in cold sweat.

Senior Brother was indeed a master of sches. If he had been even a little careless, he would have lost completely this ti.

However, Senior Brother Xinghe had good intentions. He always managed to subtly teach him what to watch out for.

Just like this ti, Senior Brother Xinghe didn't say it outright but demonstrated through actions that one should not have the intent to harm others, but must always be on guard.

Being prepared for any unexpected events at all tis, isn't this exactly what the Divine Engraving Technique teaches?

Senior Brother Xinghe is truly unfathomable.

Fortunately, he managed to spot the clues and retrieve Senior Brother Xinghe's Space Ring, not letting him down.

Feng Yuzheng even thought that if he had made even a small mistake, Senior Brother Xinghe would be sitting there, disappointed, saying, "Yuzheng... you still have a lot to learn. How can you be so careless?"

Luckily, he succeeded. Seeing Senior Brother Xinghe's serious expression showed that he was at least a little satisfied with him.

"Senior Brother Xinghe, rest assured. With , Feng Yuzheng, here, no matter how you lose it, I'll always find your Space Ring perfectly!"

"I, Feng Yuzheng, stake the honor of the entire Feng family on it!"

Chu Xinghe had no idea what Feng Yuzheng was thinking. All he wanted was to die...

"Junior Brother Yuzheng, damn it, you won this ti..."

"You've won big... Your Senior Brother admits defeat, alright... I won't lose the Space Ring again... You shouldn't be studying the Divine Engraving Technique; you should open a lost-and-found shop, and you'd soar to success!"

"While your talent in the Divine Engraving Technique may not be great, your talent in ssing with your Senior Brother Xinghe is unparalleled."

"In ancient tis, there was a trick called 'Three Immortals Returning to the Cave,' but Chu Xinghe just wants to say, they never t Feng Yuzheng. Otherwise, forget about three immortals; even the Three Delicacies couldn't return to the cave."

"Even if you hid in sothing aweso, my Junior Brother Yuzheng could still pull you out..."

"I admit defeat, Senior Brother admits defeat..."

After sending off Feng Yuzheng, who seriously stated, "Senior Brother Xinghe, you continue. I can withstand the test," Chu Xinghe took a good half a day to recover.

"Junior Brother... I don't know if you can withstand it, but Senior Brother really can't."

At this point, he didn't know whether to regret bringing Feng Yuzheng or not.

If he regretted it... leaving him at ho, what if he suddenly broke through and comprehended sothing?

Would he still have a place to return to?

But bringing Feng Yuzheng... himself... forget it, forget it...

From then on, Chu Xinghe never lost the Space Ring again. It wasn't that he didn't want to; he simply didn't dare. Chu Xinghe considered that even if he opened a teleportation array and shattered the void to lose the Space Ring, there was only one possibility...

He wouldn't find his way back, and then Feng Yuzheng, who found the Space Ring, would bring him back...

In terms of navigation, no one could beat Junior Brother Yuzheng.

So, the following days were peaceful, except for Shi Biao coming to consult him daily, there were no disturbances.

The trade caravan entered the territory of the Gathering Star Nation, and Chu Xinghe gathered all the accompanying junior brothers.

"Your hos are in the Gathering Star Nation, so consider this a chance to visit your families. Everyone can go ho, but make sure to return to Hillside Village within the specified ti."

The junior brothers from the Gathering Star Nation were overjoyed at Senior Brother Xinghe's words.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Xinghe!"

"Senior Brother Xinghe is truly virtuous!"

They hadn't expected to be able to visit ho while on a mission with Senior Brother Xinghe. Reaching the Gathering Star Nation was already like coming ho.

After all, they were on a mission, but Senior Brother Xinghe was genuinely virtuous, allowing them to visit their families.

What? You're worried about Senior Brother Xinghe's safety? Do we need to worry about that?

Everyone observed over the past few days that although the trade caravan seed ordinary on the surface, the two senior brothers leading the way looked like Martial Sovereigns arranged by the Great Elder, didn't they?

Anyone foolish enough to jump out would be slapped into pieces by them, giving you a taste of the Great Elder's hand...

So, with Senior Brother Xinghe's permission, everyone was overjoyed and set off after bidding farewell to him.

"Junior Brother Gu Feng, why aren't you leaving?" Chu Xinghe noticed that everyone else had left, except for a junior brother nad Gu Feng.

"Senior Brother, my ho is in Qinghe City, right next to Hillside Village, so it's on the way."

"Qinghe City? Your family must be doing well." Chu Xinghe knew Qinghe City; it was the largest city near Hillside Village and one of the three most prosperous cities in the Gathering Star Nation, a place where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold.

"Yes, Senior Brother, it's Qinghe City. Our family is just a little well-off, nothing compared to what Senior Brother Xinghe ntioned." Gu Feng looked a bit apprehensive.

"Just teasing you, since it's on the way, let's go together."

Chu Xinghe smiled and greeted Gu Feng before returning to the carriage.

A day later, the trade caravan arrived outside Qinghe City, and Chu Xinghe lifted the curtain of the carriage to take a look outside...

What the hell?

Outside Qinghe City, countless people and horses were gathered on both sides of the city gate, forming neat lines. At the front of the lines stood a middle-aged man in luxurious attire, accompanied by a group of young people, bowing with hands clasped.

This middle-aged man looked sowhat familiar... wasn't he the City Lord of Qinghe City?

What was his na again? Chu Xinghe couldn't rember, but he had heard from the village chief that this City Lord was remarkable. The village chief had once had the honor of attending a banquet hosted by the City Lord.

It was said that the village chief's seat was quite close, just a short ride away, and you could clearly see the City Lord. How close is that?

The village chief always claid to be the City Lord's most valued person.

But what was the City Lord doing standing at the city gate? Who was he welcoming?

While Chu Xinghe was puzzled, Gu Feng jumped out from the side.

"Father!"

Father?

With that shout, the stern face of City Lord Gu Chengming softened into a loving expression.

Chu Xinghe was dumbfounded...

Little well-off Gu Feng?

Gu Chengming seed to have only one son, right? Quite a little well-off indeed!

My junior brothers sure know how to surprise their senior brother.

"Gu Chengming, City Lord of Qinghe City in the Gathering Star Nation, welcos Young Hero Xinghe to Qinghe City."

At this mont, Gu Chengming, along with officials and nurous wealthy families from the city, bowed and made way for the Grand Sky Sect's trade caravan to enter Qinghe City.

Chu Xinghe got off the carriage, and Gu Feng imdiately stepped forward.

"Young Hero Xinghe, Gu Chengming greets you."

"City Lord Gu, you're too kind. Gu Feng is my junior brother; how could I accept such a grand gesture?"

"Exactly, Father... I've told you, Senior Brother Xinghe is not soone who seeks vanity. You really didn't need to do all this." Gu Feng looked at his father with so frustration.

My Senior Brother Xinghe is such a virtuous person... He's genuinely good to his junior brothers. I know you're trying to show off our family's strength to Senior Brother Xinghe.

But Father... you underestimate Senior Brother Xinghe. With our ager assets, would Senior Brother Xinghe care?

You've made such a grand display, and I feel embarrassed.

"Young Hero Xinghe, Gu Feng is young and inexperienced. I hope the Sect will take care of him in the future. This is a small gift I've prepared..."

As Gu Chengming spoke, the small gift was already being presented.

But when Gu Feng saw it, he was so angry he almost cried...

Father, what are you doing? These millennium-old ginsengs and thousand-year-old lingzhi might impress so places, but presenting them as a gift to Senior Brother Xinghe is too thin.

I'm embarrassed for you...

Whether the gift was thin or not, Chu Xinghe certainly couldn't accept it.

Joking aside, if he accepted gifts from his junior brother's family to take care of them, would he still be a decent person?

Taking care of junior brothers is part of his duty, isn't it?

Despite being backstabbed by so many junior brothers, he still took care of them, didn't he?

After thanking City Lord Gu, Chu Xinghe didn't accept the gift. Instead, he ntioned that he was from Hillside Village, which was under Qinghe Town, so he was also considered a person of Qinghe Town. Taking care of Gu Feng was no problem.

He also hoped that City Lord Gu would take care of his fellow villagers in the future, which would be greatly appreciated.

However, after saying this, Chu Xinghe noticed that City Lord Gu's expression turned a bit strange. What did that an?

Was it just because he didn't accept the gift? Was there a problem with asking him to take care of his fellow villagers?

Puzzled, Chu Xinghe rested briefly in Qinghe City, left Gu Feng to visit his family, and then continued towards Hillside Village, with City Lord Gu still looking puzzled.

Hillside Village wasn't far from Qinghe City. The road used to be bad, but it took about half a day to reach.

But as Chu Xinghe left Qinghe City, he noticed sothing was off... The road to Hillside Village wasn't like this before... Now, it was a super highway wide enough for fifty carriages to travel side by side. What was going on?

Did he travel through ti? Or was his mory ssed up?

Before Chu Xinghe could figure out whether he had traveled through ti, he arrived at Moon River, outside Hillside Village. Standing by Moon River, looking up towards Hillside Village, Chu Xinghe instantly understood why City Lord Gu's expression was like that!

What... Great Elder... is this the surprise you prepared for ?

Isn't this surprise a bit too grand?
