For a moment, everyone in the Interception Sect did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Fortunately, the River of Destiny could not speak.
Otherwise, it would probably have unleashed a torrent of curses earlier.
The disciples stood dazed, their eyes wide and their mouths agape.
"Was that... really the River of Destiny?"
"Could Senior Brother Changqing defy heaven any more than this?"
"Why did even a wisp of its escaping aura earlier make our hair stand on end and fill us with terror?"
"Yet Senior Brother Changqing treated it like nothing, as calm as drifting clouds in a gentle breeze."
They murmured to themselves.
Beside them, Tongtian and Ancestor Hong Yun exchanged a glance, bitter smiles appearing on their faces as well.
What the hell...
Even mighty beings like them felt ashamed of their own inadequacy before Gu Changqing.
By now, Gu Changqing had scooped up a whole Primordial Golden Dou full of water from the River of Destiny.
Only then did he leap back before the others, thoroughly satisfied.
Tongtian looked with an amused smile at this disciple whose actions shocked the world and defied convention, then said:
"You brat, you really are daring beyond all bounds!"
"Do you know how your actions just now had even your master on tenterhooks?"
Yet upon hearing Tongtian's words,
Gu Changqing merely gave a careless, drunken smile.
"Hehe... hic... Master, aren't you being a little too timid?"
"If water this miraculous isn't used to brew wine, wouldn't that be a criminal waste of heaven's gifts?"
At those words, everyone looked utterly exasperated.
Good heavens!
He truly lived up to the name Wine Sword Immortal!
For the sake of drinking, he would even throw his life away.
Still, the Jie Sect Disciples were now studying the water from the River of Destiny
