"hiss……"

Everyone took a breath. This guy actually said that as long as Gu Yuan was willing, he could be made the young sect leader?

What a joke, although Qingming Mountain is not a big sect, it is also a strong sect. There are several powerful Spirit Kings in the sect. If you can become the young sect master, then you will definitely have a lot of resources for cultivation.

Everyone looked at Gu Yuan, hoping that he could choose his own sect.

Gu Yuan just smiled, shook his head again, and said, "I appreciate your kindness, but I'm a freedom-loving person, and my master has also stipulated that I'm not allowed to join any sect. I can't disobey my master's orders, so I hope you can understand!"

Gu Yuan pretended to be embarrassed and said.

"Is that how it is?"

Everyone looked at Gu Yuan. Although they said they understood, they were a little bit unconvinced in their hearts.

After all, such an outstanding person might really be arrogant and look down on his own sect?

"That's right, my friend, you are a master who has produced outstanding students. We are a little too imaginative! Haha."

One person looked at Gu Yuan and said with a smile.

Gu Yuan hurriedly shook his head and said, "I am not talented, thank you for your praise. It's just that my master's rules are very strict, and I am not allowed to join any sect. If I disobey my master's orders, it will not only be terrifying for me, but also for all of you. I am afraid that I will be implicated. My master has a very strange personality and often does things that ordinary people can't imagine. So for my own sake, and for your sake, I cannot appreciate your kindness!"

"Oh! I see. What a pity!"

Some people nodded, expressing regret, but it was understandable. After all, if such an outstanding disciple was snatched away by someone else and became someone else's disciple, he would definitely be crazy!

Moreover, they could also tell from Gu Yuan that Gu Yuan’s teacher was definitely not a weakling. Anyone who could use the Spirit King to collect the demon fire was obviously not a weakling.

"Alas, it seems that we don't have the fate to invite you back to our sect this time!" someone said with a wry smile.

"Well, it's fate, and you can't ask for it. Maybe one day we will be able to meet an outstanding young man like you again." Someone else sighed and said.

"Yeah, take your time, everything will be there."

"Hahaha, that's right!"

Gu Yuan smiled and cupped his hands. "Everyone, although I cannot join your sect, it is my honor to meet you all. I will have the opportunity to visit your sect in the future. I hope you will not despise me then."

"Hahaha, great! Then we'll remember what you said. The gate of Qingming Mountain is always open to you, my friend!"

“Us too!”

"My Golden Sword Sect always welcomes you!"

"Thank you all for your kindness. I will definitely visit your sect when I have the chance." Gu Yuan nodded and said with a smile.

"Okay, in that case, we won't bother you here any longer. I hope you can come visit me in the future."

Everyone looked at Gu Yuan and said with a smile.

"I will."

Everyone nodded and left.

Only after everyone left did Gu Yuan breathe a sigh of relief. Do these guys really think he is a fool?

Gu Yuan sneered in his heart. These guys probably wanted to attack him from the beginning, mainly because they saw the demon fire in his hand. Fortunately, he made up a reason and brought up the non-existent master to make them suspicious.

The reason why their attitude became friendly later on was probably because the powerful non-existent master he mentioned had intimidated them. And more importantly, the source of the fire in his hand also made them almost believe the reason he made up. Otherwise, they probably would not believe the non-existent master he mentioned.

Moreover, their friendly attitude after that was probably because of the non-existent master he mentioned. If it weren't for him, these people probably wouldn't be so friendly. Not only did they ask him to join their sect, they even went so far as to use the benefit of making him the young sect master to win over Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan shook his head. No matter what, these people did not pose any threat to him. No matter whether they were sincere or not, at least they should not target him again.

But even so, Gu Yuan still became secretly alert. After all, people's hearts are hidden, and no one knows what will happen afterwards. If any one of these people has bad intentions towards him, Gu Yuan will immediately be in danger.

Gu Yuan took a deep breath, shook his head, calmed down his emotions, and put the matter behind him.

Thinking of what Mu Tianxing had just said, Gu Yuan couldn't help but feel a headache again.

This guy Mu Tianxing is really cunning and treacherous.

Now that Mu Tianxing admitted defeat in the competition, Gu Yuan naturally won the game.

But Gu Yuan had a headache. The previous bet was that Mu Tianxing would give Gu Yuan a hundred times the amount of elixir. Now that Gu Yuan had defeated Mu Tianxing, Mu Tianxing did not refuse. Instead, he directly asked Gu Yuan to come to his house in person to get the elixir himself. This really made Gu Yuan very embarrassed.

Go ahead. It's not so easy to visit the Mu family. Let's not talk about whether you can get in or whether you will be stopped. Even if you get in, the Mu family will not let you feel good. If someone causes trouble for you, as long as Mu Tianxing doesn't take action, Gu Yuan has no reason to blame Mu Tianxing. After all, this is not what Mu Tianxing did, even if it was arranged by Mu Tianxing.

But if he doesn't go, that's a hundred times more spiritual medicine, and there are many precious spiritual medicines in it. The Mu family has been doing spiritual medicine business for so many years, so they should have ways to get these things. Gu Yuan is not worried that Mu Tianxing can't get these things. What he should worry about is that Mu Tianxing is unwilling to hand these things over to Gu Yuan smoothly.

Gu Yuan is not a fool. It is obvious whether Mu Tianxing is happy or not. No one can give away so many spiritual medicines and still laugh. Although that is the case, Gu Yuan cannot give up the spiritual medicine that Mu Tianxing lost to him.

Why not want it if you won it with your own ability?

Gu Yuan touched his chin and said, "Since Mu Tianxing didn't say when he would go, I might as well prepare first, just in case he plays any tricks on me."

Shaking his head, Gu Yuan felt that this matter could be put on hold for a while. It would probably be difficult for him to go to the Mu family alone and retrieve the elixir that was a hundred times more valuable.

But it doesn’t matter, Gu Yuan already has some preliminary plans in mind.

With a smile on his lips, Gu Yuan looked into the room and then walked over.
