Indeed!
For these powerful figures who had only just joined the Interception Sect, their understanding of Gu Changqing was still confined to the legends of his past deeds.
Witnessing him firsthand today brought an immense shock that words could scarcely describe.
"Had I not joined the Interception Sect, I would probably have thought everything that happened earlier was the work of a Sage."
Someone sighed with emotion, prompting everyone to nod at once.
There was not the slightest exaggeration in those words!
After all, Gu Changqing's strength had long since far surpassed the bounds of the Quasi-Saint realm.
Even if someone called him a Sage who kept his power hidden, almost no one would have doubted it.
For a time, hundreds of thousands of gazes turned toward Biyou Palace, filled with awe and reverence.
Or, more precisely, toward Gu Changqing's retreating figure.
Meanwhile, inside Biyou Palace!
"We thank you, Senior Brother Changqing (Junior Brother Changqing)!"
Once they entered Biyou Palace, before Tongtian could say anything,
Duobao and the other Eight Great Personal Disciples bowed one after another, speaking with solemn, earnest expressions.
Their gratitude came from the depths of their hearts.
After all, had Gu Changqing not continually strengthened Duobao and the others with all kinds of fine wine,
They could never have overcome those above their station and overpowered the disciples of the Human and Chan Sects earlier.
Although they addressed him as their senior or junior brother,
Duobao and the others already treated Gu Changqing as disciples would their master.
Watching this, Tongtian said nothing more. Instead, a smile appeared on his face.
Although the Interception Sect taught all without discrimination and lacked the Chan Sect's strict rules,
The closeness and kindness among his disciples, and their clear distinction between gratitude and grievances, still left Tongtian deeply
