If she forced herself to stand firm, wouldn't she end up being refined?
Turtle Spirit Holy Mother reined in her arrogance and looked toward Daoist Duobao.
Daoist Duobao stared intently at Gu Changsheng.
"Brother Duobao, you lost."
Gu Changsheng said coldly.
Daoist Duobao snorted and said, "Gu Changsheng, you actually set me up like this. Do you even have the Three Sects in your eyes?"
Daoist Duobao shouted furiously.
It was as though he had seized Gu Changsheng's weakness, and he was utterly enraged.
Haha!
Gu Changsheng's expression turned cold as he said in a deep voice, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Daoist Duobao said grimly, "Gu Changsheng, just you wait. I will definitely report what happened here to Master!"
Gu Changsheng stepped forward, Myriad Spirit Ancient Flame surging all over his body.
Daoist Duobao hurriedly retreated several steps.
His eyes were full of shock as he shouted, "Gu Changsheng, are you actually planning to kill me?"
Kill you?
Gu Changsheng raised a swordlike brow and said coldly, "Killing you would be like slaughtering a loach!"
Daoist Duobao's eyes brimmed with resentment, yet his heart suddenly trembled.
Proud and arrogant as he had always been, when had he ever suffered such a loss?
Daoist Duobao's resentment soared to the heavens as he shouted grimly, "Leave!"
The Interception Sect disciples were about to ride the clouds away.
Then a voice came from behind them.
"Stop!"
Daoist Duobao and the other Interception Sect disciples turned around and looked at Guang Chengzi, who had stopped them.
A sharp glint flashed through Guang Chengzi's eyes.
"Xuanxuzi tried to harm my Junior Brother Baihe. Make him apologize!"
Apologize!
Daoist Duobao and the other Interception Sect disciples' expressions changed drastically.
He had come to the Chan Sect to demand an explanation precisely for the Interception Sect's honor.
If Xuanxuzi were made to apologize now, would that not disgrace the Interception Sect?
This was something they could never admit.
"Junior Brother Xuanxuzi, go back first!"
Daoist Duobao did not take Guang Chengzi seriously and barked at Xuanxuzi to leave.
Xuanxuzi was terrified and hurriedly ran away.
Guang Chengzi's expression changed drastically, his face icy cold.
"Do you think you can leave?"
Gu Changsheng took a step forward. Mastery of Five Thunders instantly wrapped Xuanxuzi in dense, profound energy and descended upon him from the air.
The five thunders formed a prison, leaving Xuanxuzi shocked as he collapsed to the ground.
Daoist Duobao angrily said, "Gu Changsheng, what are you trying to do?"
Gu Changsheng said coldly, "Is the Chan Sect a place where you can come and go whenever you please?"
"Do you want to imprison us?"
Daoist Duobao looked ready to fight to the death.
Gu Changsheng gave a low laugh and said coldly, "That won't be necessary. Make Xuanxuzi apologize!"
Gu Changsheng knew that the Three Pure Ones had yet to split apart, and the Three Sects shared the same origin.
If he truly detained Daoist Duobao now, even if Sect Leader Tongtian came to demand an explanation—
he believed that Master would certainly step in.
But Gu Changsheng did not wish to do that for the time being.
Xuanxuzi knelt on the ground, terrified beyond measure.
"Brother Changsheng, I was wrong. I should not have harbored wicked thoughts and tried to devour Junior Brother Baihe. Please forgive me."
Afraid that both his body and soul would be destroyed, Xuanxuzi hurriedly confessed.
Daoist Duobao and the other Interception Sect disciples wore extremely ugly expressions.
"Junior Brother Guang Chengzi, did you record it?"
"Senior Brother, I recorded everything."
"Good."
Gu Changsheng swept a cold gaze over Daoist Duobao and said icily, "Get lost!"
Daoist Duobao pointed angrily at Gu Changsheng and shouted, "Just you wait!"
Without even looking at Xuanxuzi, he stormed off with the Interception Sect disciples.
Once the Interception Sect had left, Guang Chengzi and the other Chan Sect disciples hurriedly bowed to Gu Changsheng.
"Senior Brother Changsheng!"
Every Chan Sect disciple showed an expression of admiration.
Gu Changsheng smiled and said, "You all did well too. You did not tarnish the Chan Sect's reputation."
"Senior Brother, we will never disgrace Master."
"Senior Brother, you actually broke through during this journey of cultivation."
They were all astonished, suddenly feeling that they had wasted the past several hundred years.
Moreover, their senior brother had created writing for the human race and gained Heavenly Dao merit.
That was something they had never expected.
Gu Changsheng looked at Guang Chengzi and the other disciples, smiling as he said, "Cultivate diligently. In the future, you too will enter the Grand Unity Realm!"
"Yes, Senior Brother!"
Guang Chengzi and the others all answered in unison.
"Return to your respective abodes and cultivate. Master has summoned me!"
"Yes."
Under Guang Chengzi and the others' admiring gazes, Gu Changsheng was about to leave.
But as he departed, his eyes swept deeply over Juliusun and the others.
Juliusun and the others all lowered their heads.
Gu Changsheng paid them no mind and transformed into a streak of golden light, flying toward Jade Void Palace.
Gu Changsheng knew that Master had already learned of what had happened here.
Kunlun, within Biyou Palace.
Looking at Daoist Duobao, whose face was bruised and swollen and whose entire body was charred black, Sect Leader Tongtian's saintly eyes were filled with coldness.
"Expel Xuanxuzi from Kunlun!"
Xuanxuzi trembled all over like a sieve.
Turtle Spirit Holy Mother stepped forward and respectfully bowed. "Master, Gu Changsheng bullied us first. They even called us furred and horned, damp-born egg-layers."
She revealed boundless resentment.
Sect Leader Tongtian snorted coldly, his gaze frosty. "I already know!"
Holy Mother Wudang also prostrated herself and said, "Master, the Chan Sect humiliated us. This also shows that the Chan Sect does not hold Master in any regard."
Mighty Saintly Might surged from Sect Leader Tongtian's body.
He stared at Daoist Duobao, then cast Saintly Light upon Golden Spirit Holy Mother and Zhao Gongming.
"What do you have to say?"
"That Gu Changsheng relied on being a Grand Unity Golden Immortal to look down on us. He even harmed Eldest Disciple Duobao. We ask Sect Leader to punish Gu Changsheng."
"Master, although Xuanxuzi was partly at fault in this matter, Junior Brother Baihe was not the first to discover that spirit root. Yet the Chan Sect wanted to claim it for themselves. Not only did they injure Xuanxuzi, they also injured Eldest Disciple Duobao."
Seeing how severely wounded Daoist Duobao was, Sect Leader Tongtian also felt that Gu Changsheng had been somewhat too ruthless.
"This child should indeed be properly disciplined."
Sect Leader Tongtian glanced at everyone.
"Duobao, this is a saintly healing medicine. Go treat your injuries first."
"Thank you, Master!"
Daoist Duobao was overjoyed and hurriedly took the saintly healing medicine before leaving.
Within the main hall of Jade Void Palace.
Gu Changsheng respectfully knelt and bowed.
Primordial Heavenly Venerate looked toward him.
"Changsheng, it seems you have gained much."
Primordial Heavenly Venerate's saintly gaze fell upon Gu Changsheng.
Before you continue
