(Fast-paced story, exciting from start to finish, no need to overthink.) Gu Changqing, a nominal disciple of the Qingyun Sect, wakes up and realizes he has been reborn. With only three months left ...
Next, everyone left this place, took to the air, and headed to the Wanglushan Waterfall Cave.
Along the way, Zhang Hongxin introduced his wife to Gu Changqing. Only then did Gu Changqing realize that, in a sense, the beautiful woman was not his wife, but rather his fiancée. She was stunningly beautiful and had been pursuing him for a short time. They had made a marriage agreement and were preparing to get married at this time next year.
The parents had already met and the two sides had reached an agreement. However, Zhang Hongxin changed his mind and wanted to give his fiancée to Gu Changqing. What could Gu Changqing say? He simply agreed and planned to take her as a concubine so that Zhang Hongxin's good intentions wouldn't be in vain.
Furthermore, Zhang Hongxin was so grateful for being saved that he would give his life to repay her. What was a mere woman compared to that? So, without a second thought, he sent his fiancée away.
The two chatted as they raced along.
Jiang Qingcheng didn't say anything after receiving this news. It's normal for men to have multiple wives and concubines, especially for an outstanding man like her husband. It's perfectly normal for him to have a group of wives and concubines.
Therefore, she didn't say much.
As for the Red Qilin, although it can speak human language, it generally does not speak. Although it understands human language and has its own intelligence, it is still very vague and ignorant about human emotions, especially love. Therefore, it just flies without saying a word.
When Zhang Hongxin saw the mount under Gu Changqing's back, he was both surprised and delighted. He couldn't understand why Gu Changqing had such a powerful mount. The mount clearly didn't have any cultivation aura, but for some reason, it could fly so high, soaring hundreds of millions of miles into the sky, and its speed forward was as fast as lightning. No, it was even faster than lightning, which stunned him.
Gu Changqing said with a smile, "This thing is a kind of monster I recently subdued. It works alright, don't be too surprised."
It's alright... it's alright...
Zhang Hongxin felt a pang of unease. Good heavens! Such an amazing thing, and the chief senior brother actually said it was just so-so? He's so modest! For a moment, Zhang Hongxin felt a deep respect and admiration for Gu Changqing, as if he were facing a towering mountain. He looked up to the mountain and followed its example. His awe was beyond words.
After flying for a while, the three successfully arrived above a tall building. Looking down, the building was towering thousands of feet high, seemingly within reach of the stars. There was a person standing on it, holding a folding fan in one hand and a wine glass in the other. He was drinking while casually waving the fan and blowing his hair. He looked very presentable and dashing.
Upon seeing the other party, Zhang Hongxin was slightly taken aback, and quickly said, "Senior Brother, this is a friend I met a few days ago. He is an extremely generous person. Why don't we stay with him for a while?"
Gu Changqing soon learned that the building belonged to his friend, Wang Tianhua. Wang Tianhua was handsome and loved to drink heavily, but he came from a poor and destitute background. However, for some unknown reason, he suddenly became rich and built this tall building. His cultivation level was about the same as Zhang Hongxin's. The two were evenly matched and neither said anything about the other.
Zhang Hongxin also enjoys drinking, so the two became close friends and often interacted.
Upon hearing this, Gu Changqing shook his head and said, "Alright, you go ahead. I'm going to find your fiancée. Or we can part ways here and meet again."
Upon hearing that Gu Changqing was unwilling to go, Zhang Hongxin immediately said, "No, Senior Brother, if I don't go, will my fiancée know the whole story?"
Gu Changqing waved his hand and said casually, "It's alright. Qingcheng was very understanding and had already used the recording stone to capture everything that happened. She'll understand when she sees it."
Zhang Hongxin cupped his hands and said, "Awesome."
After saying that, Zhang Hongxin flew down to find his friend.
Gu Changqing suddenly said from behind, "By the way, you shouldn't go back to the sect recently. There might be some battles going to happen in the sect. The farther away you are, the better."
Zhang Hongxin turned around mid-flight and said, "Could it be that the six major demonic sects are about to attack?"
Um?
Gu Changqing's eyes narrowed, and he immediately caught up with her, asking, "How did you know? Who told you?"
Zhang Hongxin shook his head and said, "It wasn't someone who told me, but rather something I've heard recently."
"What? There's been some news lately?" Gu Changqing's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately grabbed him, asking, "What news? Is it that the six major demonic sects are going to attack?"
"It was that demonic person who told me. He grabbed me and said he was the vanguard of the Netherworld Sect, one of the six major demonic sects. He said there was a large army behind him, and that their army was attacking the Great Yan. They had already reduced the Great Yan to a mere shell."
"All the military forces and combat power that the Great Yan could muster have been wiped out. Only the emperor of the Great Yan capital and a group of concubines remain. Now, the six major demonic sects are surrounding the entire palace and will launch a sect attack soon. This is what that demonic person just told me with a look of delight."
"I see." Gu Changqing stroked his chin and then asked, "When will they come to attack this area?"
Zhang Hongxian said, "According to that demonic cultivator, after they conquered the capital of the Great Yan Kingdom, they wiped out all the remaining forces of the Great Yan Kingdom. Next, they will gather their forces to launch a full-scale attack on the Great Chu Kingdom. The first thing they will do is to blast open the gates of the Qingyun Sect. However, saying 'blast open' is not quite accurate. They will simply rampage through the gates and flatten the Qingyun Sect, rolling over it like a wheel. They don't take our sect seriously at all."
Gu Changqing was overjoyed and said, "Okay, I understand. You can go now. Don't go back to the sect for the time being. I'm enough for the sect."
"Actually, Senior Brother, when I saw you make your move just now, you were so incredibly powerful that I immediately realized they were completely wrong to underestimate us. I reckon you could annihilate all the members of the six major demonic sects with a single slap. Even if their ancestors came out of seclusion, they wouldn't be able to defeat you. That's why I was so shocked just now. After I recovered, I was overjoyed and wanted to give my fiancée to you."
Zhang Hongxin spoke with great respect and proper manner.
