(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 ...
"Chief Gu, I think this is a great idea! This way, all the disciples in the sect will know about your great achievements and admire you even more. And think about it, when you hold a celebration banquet, the disciples will give you some small gifts, right? You'll definitely receive so many gifts that you won't know what to do with them. Wouldn't that be wonderful?" Liu Qianqian said excitedly, as if she were the one who was going to hold the celebration banquet.
Upon hearing this, Gu Changqing smiled faintly and said, "It sounds quite good. I thought Elder Liu would give me some treasures as before, but I didn't expect it to be so special this time. You're very thoughtful. In that case, I won't refuse. I'll leave all the arrangements for the celebration banquet to Elder Liu."
Gu Changqing thought about it for a moment and agreed that it was a good idea. Not only would he be able to eat a lot of delicious food and receive many gifts, but his deeds would also be known to everyone. It was a win-win situation, so he happily agreed.
"Since Chief Gu has no objections, then it's decided. I will definitely hold a grand celebration banquet for Chief Gu, and I guarantee it will satisfy him. Chief Gu doesn't need to worry about anything; just go back to the sect and wait. I will send someone to invite him then." Elder Liu patted his chest and made his promise.
"Yes, I trust Elder Liu to handle things well. I think it sounds very good to me. But there is one thing Elder Liu definitely cannot do." Gu Changqing nodded and said with some regret.
"I can't speak for other matters, but what can't I do at this banquet? Just tell me, and I'll definitely be able to do it," Elder Liu asked Gu Changqing with a disbelieving look.
"If Elder Liu can get the sect leader to attend the celebration banquet, I will trust you," Gu Changqing said confidently with a mischievous grin.
"Chief Gu, aren't you putting my father in a difficult position? How long the sect leader is in seclusion is beyond our control. My father certainly can't do anything about it, unless the sect leader comes out of seclusion on the day of the victory celebration banquet." Liu Qianqian frowned upon hearing this, feeling indignant on behalf of her father.
Gu Changqing laughed heartily and said, "Hahaha, I was just joking, Miss Liu took it seriously. I was just asking Elder Liu if she knew when the Sect Master would be coming out of seclusion."
Elder Liu shook his head, looking puzzled, and said, "I don't know either, but I think it should be soon. After all, the sect leader has been in seclusion for so long, she should be coming out soon. She can't stay in seclusion forever. All we can do is wait patiently. When the sect leader decides to come out of seclusion, we will definitely see her again."
"I have a question. If the sect leader knew that we were holding a celebration banquet for Chief Gu, would she be unhappy? After all, I've grown up in the sect and have never held a celebration banquet before. Would the sect leader think we're being too unruly?" Liu Qianqian asked with a question and some worry.
"The Sect Master isn't such a petty person. Although our Sect Master has never held a victory celebration banquet before, the main reason is that the disciples of our sect haven't made any particularly significant contributions to our Qingyun Sect over the years. To date, only Chief Gu has made outstanding contributions to our Qingyun Sect. Moreover, Chief Gu's contributions are not limited to just this one thing. For example, she has passed on her skills to many disciples of the sect and brought the Divine Dragon Sect under our sect's control. I dare say that even the Sect Master hasn't made such significant contributions. Therefore, it is entirely appropriate to hold a victory celebration banquet for Chief Gu. Even if the Sect Master wants to find fault, she won't be able to find anything wrong with it." Elder Liu spoke eloquently, as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
"Father is right. Even if the sect leader finds out, he won't say anything. I was just overthinking it," Liu Qianqian said with some shame, realizing that she had been being petty.
When Gu Changqing heard Elder Liu say this, he was a little moved. He didn't expect that Elder Liu would remember all the things he had done and not forget them. He felt quite gratified.
"Alright, there's nothing else, so I won't take up any more of Chief Gu's time. You should go back and rest now," Elder Liu said with a smile.
"Well, I'll take my leave now. I won't disturb you two any longer as you reminisce," Gu Changqing said calmly with a faint smile.
He was in a good mood and strode towards Jiang Qingcheng's residence.
--------------------
I hadn't gone far when I saw a slender woman walking towards me from afar.
Upon closer inspection, Gu Changqing realized that the woman was none other than his beloved wife, Lady Qingcheng.
"Qingcheng!" Gu Changqing called out with a smile.
"Husband, you're finally back! I haven't seen you for days. What have you been doing? Why have you been gone for so long?" Jiang Qingcheng walked up to Gu Changqing and asked with concern.
"I was almost at your courtyard after finishing my business when Liu Qianqian suddenly called me away. Her father needed to see me, so I rushed over. I should have told you before I went," Gu Changqing explained with a smile. He could tell that Jiang Qingcheng was worried about him, and he felt apologetic.
"Oh, I see. What did Elder Liu want to see you about? Did you finish it?" Jiang Qingcheng said with a sudden realization.
"It's all taken care of. With me on the job, is there anything I can't handle? By the way, what are you doing here?" Gu Changqing said with a faint smile, his face beaming with pride.
"I was bored, so I just took a walk around and saw if I could run into you. And I actually did!" Jiang Qingcheng smiled slightly, her face beaming with happiness, like a beautiful fairy, captivating and enchanting.
"Let's go back," Gu Changqing said calmly, taking Jiang Qingcheng's hand.
"Hmm, my husband, you still haven't told me, did Elder Liu ask you to do something earth-shattering?" Jiang Qingcheng asked with great curiosity, holding Gu Changqing's hand very relaxed.
"Elder Liu summoned me to the Hun Tian Sect. You must have heard that the Hun Tian Sect severely injured one of our disciples, causing his death without medical treatment. I'm going to avenge him," Gu Changqing said with a slight smile, his tone light and cheerful.
"Oh, so that's what it was about. I heard about it too, and I was quite angry at the time. The disciples of the Hun Tian Sect are too arrogant. They really need to be taught a lesson," Jiang Qingcheng said indignantly.
