As night falls, Clumsy Peak cool breeze blows.

Compared with other lush main peaks, it seems much quieter here.

Gu Sheng arrived at the top of Clumsy Peak at night.

He looked towards the other main peaks and saw the brightest one, Spirit Peak, floating with fairy energy, as if there were stars echoing it.

Gu Sheng slightly stirred up divine power.

In an instant, bursts of light appeared on the soles of his feet.

However, in order to avoid being discovered by others, Gu Sheng quickly covered up the light and returned to pitch black.

"Clumsy Peak, a perfect place to practice."

Gu Sheng said to himself.

Immediately, he sat cross-legged and adjusted his breathing slightly.

Chenshi.

"Whoosh!"

A ray of light fell from the sky.

The light fell on Gu Sheng and disappeared instantly.

At the same time, Gu Sheng felt a warm current slowly flowing through his body.

The warm current flows directly to the Bitter Sea, warming the spiritual energy in the body.

"Huh..."

Gu Sheng took a deep breath and tried to summon his divine power again.

This time, he clearly felt that the surge of power was stronger than before.

It's the kind of existence that scares even oneself when it goes crazy!

However, just as he was immersed in the joy of increasing strength, a deep gaze had firmly locked onto his figure.

Senior Li Ruoyu, this enigmatic cultivator, has already seen the strange movements of Gu Sheng.

However, he did not disturb Gu Sheng's practice, but chose to hide quietly in the dark night.

At this time, he was like a watcher, silently guarding Gu Sheng.

"A child can be taught..."

Li Ruoyu said something secretly in his heart, and then retreated into the distance.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Gu Sheng's consciousness felt slight fluctuations in the air.

"Someone!"

Gu Sheng caught his wits and rushed directly in the direction of the air fluctuations.

But when he got there, he found nothing.

It was quiet all around, except for the gentle breeze.

Gu Sheng frowned, a trace of doubt rising in his heart.

But at this moment, his keen sense caught an unusual breath.

It was a deep and ancient breath that seemed to contain endless power.

"Is it him?"

Gu Sheng was shocked.

Because this aura was left by senior Li Ruoyu.

Clumsy Peak, Nine-story Xuan Tower, other humble elders from the main peak...

All of this seems to be an assertion of Li Ruoyu's senior status.

Gu Sheng decided to stand still for the time being and wait for dawn before making any plans.

The night gradually recedes, revealing the white fish belly in the east.

Gu Sheng stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked towards the residence of senior Li Ruoyu.

When he arrived there, he saw senior Li Ruoyu still sitting on the futon, meditating with his eyes closed.

Gu Sheng stood outside the door, observed quietly for a while, and then said softly, "Senior, good morning."

Li Ruoyu slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Gu Sheng, and nodded slightly.

"Come in."

Gu Sheng walked into the house, stood respectfully in front of Li Ruoyu, and said, "Senior, it's three o'clock in the morning, breakfast..."

"Go to the mountain to fetch water and make a fire to cook."

Li Ruoyu After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes again.

Gu Sheng was speechless.

I thought that after entering Tai Xuan Sect, I would have no worries about eating and drinking.

But after hearing what Li Ruoyu said, is it possible that I want to cook for myself?

It can be seen that Li Ruoyu entered Withered Zen again, and Gu Sheng did not disturb him too much.

"Yes."

Gu Sheng just responded and backed out.

Then, Gu Sheng walked down the mountain.

"Fetching water and cooking, I am a miserable person..."

"If I had known that I had to cook by myself in Clumsy Peak, I wouldn't have come here. Alas..."

"It's too late, come on, be a worker!"

Gu Sheng seems to have become a two-sided personality.

Suddenly, an alluring aroma of rice came to my nose.

He looked up and saw several cranes soaring gracefully in the clouds.

I saw that they were carrying exquisite food boxes on their backs, and they were obviously transporting meals to other main peaks.

"I'll go... Do other main peaks still have this kind of treatment?"

Gu Sheng felt something in his heart and knew that his opportunity had come.

Immediately, he quickly used his body skills and stopped one of the cranes in a few ups and downs.

The cranes didn't seem to expect that anyone would dare to stop them, and they seemed a little panicked for a moment.

Gu Sheng gently stroked the crane's feathers to soothe its emotions.

"Baby, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you, I'm here to lighten your burden."

Gu Sheng said and directly took off the lunch box on his back.

"I'll go! Braised lion's head, scrambled eggs with tomatoes and stir-fried mountain bamboo shoots!"

"This... this... isn't this too tempting?"

Gu Sheng couldn't help but swallowed when he saw the delicious food inside.

After releasing the crane to freedom, he found a flat place and took out the food from the food box one by one.

"Senior, senior, I'm hungry. I'll bring it to you when I'm full."

While talking, Gu Sheng began to feast on himself.

After eating and drinking, he carefully put the remaining meals back into the food box, and then took them back to Li Ruoyu's residence.

At this time, Li Ruoyu was still in a meditating posture, seemingly unaware of Gu Sheng's return.

Gu Sheng placed the food box in front of Li Ruoyu and said softly, "Senior, breakfast is ready."

Li Ruoyu slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the food box, and asked, "Where do these meals come from?"

"Senior, it was made by my disciples myself."

Gu Sheng felt nervous, but on the surface he still answered calmly.

"Huh?"

A strange color flashed in Li Ruoyu's eyes, and he shook his head, as if he didn't completely believe Gu Sheng's answer.

"Really?"

Li Ruoyu asked with a serious face.

"This... I saw a crane in the sky bringing food, so I brought some over. You can eat it while it's hot."

Gu Sheng then spoke the truth.

"I... oh..."

With a heavy sigh, Li Ruoyu's figure suddenly became blurred and disappeared instantly.

"Senior! Senior!"

Gu Sheng shouted twice.

But there was no response from this deserted Clumsy Peak, and even the mountain wind seemed to have stopped responding.

"Why are you running? Doesn't it suit your taste?"

Gu Sheng said, putting the food into his mouth and savoring it carefully.

"It tastes good. This old man is really picky about food."

Gu Sheng was wondering when a loud roar suddenly came from outside, "Who dares to stop my Spirit Peak crane!"

"Spirit Peak?"

Gu Sheng was shocked, knowing that his behavior might have violated Tai Xuan Sect's rules.

Then he hurriedly walked out of the house and saw a middle-aged monk in a green shirt looking at him angrily.

"Chichichi!"

At the same time, several young cultivators also flashed in front of Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng saluted quickly and explained, "Senior, please calm down. Disciple Gu Sheng, I had no choice but to stop the crane just now because I was hungry. Please forgive me, senior."

The middle-aged monk's expression softened slightly. "Gu Sheng, you dare to do such a thing just after joining Tai Xuan Sect. If it weren't for the sake of your uncle Li Ruoyu, I would definitely teach you a lesson."

"Huh..."

Gu Sheng was shocked. He didn't expect that his behavior would cause such a big trouble.

Then he hurriedly saluted again and said sincerely, "Senior's lesson is correct. This disciple will definitely pay attention to it in the future and will not do it again."

"Hmph!"

The middle-aged monk snorted, stretched out his hand and said, "Give me back the food!"

Still?

How to pay it back?

It has been less than half an hour, and the food has been converted into feces and reached the valley road. How can I return it?

Seeing Gu Sheng stunned in place, the middle-aged monk scolded again, "Didn't you hear? Where is the lunch box?"

Gu Sheng felt helpless and turned back to the house.

He didn't care whether the soup was watery or not, and packed the leftover dishes into the lunch box.

"If you want a lunch box, I'll give it to you. Why are you so pretentious..."

Soon, Gu Sheng quickly walked up to the middle-aged monk with a lunch box and handed it to him respectfully. "Senior, please accept it."

"Yeah."

The middle-aged monk grabbed the lunch box and his expression softened slightly.

But after opening it, he saw that there were only some leftovers inside, and his face suddenly turned livid.

"Uh-huh!"

The middle-aged monk slammed the lid and shouted angrily, "You kid, how dare you tease me like this, it's an unforgivable crime!"

Immediately, the middle-aged monk turned around and ordered to the young monks behind him, "Get this ignorant boy down so that we can see clearly!"

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the young monks immediately stepped forward and surrounded Gu Sheng.

They all had fierce looks on their faces, as if they were angry at Gu Sheng's offense.

Gu Sheng smiled slightly, and his figure suddenly became like a ghost.

When the young monks saw this, they stepped forward one after another.

But after several rounds, he didn't even touch his clothes.

When the middle-aged monk saw this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Then he pinched his fingers and chanted the formula, and the spiritual energy in the air quickly gathered, forming a transparent circular barrier.

Gu Sheng and the young monks were trapped in it.

Within the barrier, Gu Sheng felt that the surrounding space seemed to be compressed.

He knew that he could not escape this barrier and could only fight it.

"Bullying the few with more!"

Gu Sheng shouted.

"Don't make excuses! Look at your own abilities!"

The middle-aged monk replied coldly.

Suddenly, the young monks attacked Gu Sheng again.

With the backing of middle-aged monks, their movements became faster and their moves became more ruthless.

Obviously, they don't want to leave Gu Sheng a way to survive.

"Okay, you asked for this!"

Gu Sheng said, quickly summoning his divine power.

After a few rounds, bursts of wailing sounds could be heard.

I saw that all the young monks on the main peak were knocked to the ground by Gu Sheng, losing their fighting power.

They either held their chests or hugged their legs, with expressions of pain and unwillingness on their faces.

"This..."

When the middle-aged monk saw this, his expression became extremely ugly.

He didn't expect Gu Sheng to be so powerful, and Spirit Peak's disciples couldn't even beat him in a group fight.

If this matter spreads to other main peaks, wouldn't it completely destroy Spirit Peak's face?

"Watch the move!"

The middle-aged monk took a deep breath and was about to take action himself when he suddenly heard a voice coming from a distance. "Stop!"

The middle-aged monk and Gu Sheng looked at the source of the sound at the same time, and saw Li Ruoyu walking slowly.

At this time, he had a gentle smile on his face, but his eyes were majestic and domineering.

The old man walked up to the middle-aged monk and said calmly, "What are you doing here Clumsy Peak?"

The middle-aged monk was shocked. He did not expect that senior Li Ruoyu would come forward in person.

He quickly saluted and said respectfully, "Uncle-Master Li, this junior is polite."

"Polite? Where are you polite? Is this your courtesy when you want to hit my Clumsy Peak people on my Clumsy Peak territory?"

Li Ruoyu said coldly.

"This..."

The middle-aged monk was suddenly speechless and a little at a loss.

"Uncle, the main thing is..."

The middle-aged monk wanted to explain, but before he could finish speaking, he was stopped by Li Ruoyu.

"What's the main thing? Don't you know that you need to go to the main entrance to report between the main peaks? Have you reported it today?"

Li Ruoyu looked gloomy and scolded in an educational tone.

"No... no..."

The middle-aged monk lowered his head and said these two words hesitantly.

"Thank you for speaking out!"

Li Ruoyu said, looking at Gu Sheng and other young monks who were in the barrier.

With a wave of his hand, the barrier instantly dissipated.

The middle-aged monk looked embarrassed and bowed deeply to Li Ruoyu.

"Uncle-Master Li, it was my negligence. I promise I will not do it again in the future."

The middle-aged monk said sincerely.

Then he turned to look at the young monks and ordered them in a panic, "Let's go. Remember to report when you enter Clumsy Peak!"

"Yes!"

The young monks responded, saluted Li Ruoyu, and left in a hurry.

Gu Sheng saw this and walked up to Li Ruoyu with a smile.

"Senior, they respect you quite a bit."

Li Ruoyu did not answer, but glared at Gu Sheng.

"You kid, don't cause any more trouble in the future, you know?"

Li Ruoyu's tone was reproachful, but to Gu Sheng's ears, why did it sound like he was deliberately giving in?

Gu Sheng scratched his head and agreed with a smile, "Yes, senior, I understand."

After saying that, Gu Sheng took out two buns from his arms.

"Senior, I originally kept these two buns for myself. You haven't eaten them yet, so I'll give them to you."

Gu Sheng said, handing two buns wrapped in oil paper to Li Ruoyu.

"You have some conscience, kid."

Li Ruoyu said, taking the bun over.

Seeing that Li Ruoyu was in a better mood, Gu Sheng couldn't help but curiously asked, "Senior, you saw what happened just now, why didn't you come forward earlier?"

"You just came to the Tai Xuan Sect not long ago, so you may not understand yet. People from other main peaks have some prejudices against us Clumsy Peak. They think that the people here have low cultivation and are not worthy of trouble. What happened today was done deliberately by them, hoping to make you suffer."

Li Ruoyu glanced at Gu Sheng, and then slowly explained.

"So that's it..."

Gu Sheng After hearing this, a trace of understanding flashed in his eyes.

He seemed to understand Li Ruoyu's intention, and at the same time he felt a little angry.

"Senior, don't worry. I will work harder to practice in the future and not let them underestimate us Clumsy Peak."

Gu Sheng clenched his fists, looking fearless.

"Okay, okay, just don't cause any trouble in the future."

Li Ruoyu waved his hand.

"Don't worry, I promise."

Gu Sheng agreed.

"Don't be poor, the morning is when spiritual energy is generated, go practice quickly!"

Li Ruoyu pointed at the highest point of Clumsy Peak with his chin.
