Elder Liu sneered and said with a serious expression, "You're already lucky to have your life. What more do you want? If the sect leader hadn't changed the rules, you would be a corpse by now!"
“Exactly. If everyone begs for mercy and no one is punished, what’s the point of rules? You’re lucky you’re still alive. If it were me, I would have smashed you into a bloody mist long ago. You should be grateful.” Gu Changqing smiled faintly, completely agreeing with Elder Liu’s approach.
As the saying goes, without rules, nothing can be accomplished.
If people like him who have made serious mistakes are not dealt with seriously, then the sect will be unable to manage its disciples when they make mistakes in the future.
The disciple was still unwilling to give up and continued to beg for mercy, saying, "I really know I was wrong and I will definitely correct my mistakes in the future. I don't dare to ask for too much. I only ask that you don't abolish my cultivation. Although my cultivation is not high, it is the result of hard work. If you abolish it, how will I live if I leave Qingyun Sect!"
“Some things, once done, are irreversible. Don’t beg for mercy anymore. I have decided to abolish your cultivation and expel you from the sect. If you are still not satisfied, I will not hesitate to use the sect’s death penalty.” Elder Liu said with a firm gaze and a serious expression.
Elder Liu remained unmoved by the disciple's pleas for mercy.
He looked down on disciples like him who could even steal sacred artifacts from their sects.
It's already an extraordinary favor that he hasn't been executed, yet he still dares to shamelessly beg for mercy. He's utterly shameless.
Upon hearing Elder Liu's words, the disciple immediately shut his mouth, afraid that if he said another word, Elder Liu would change his mind, and his fate would be even worse than it was now.
At this moment, his gaze turned sinister, and a seed of resentment was planted. He secretly vowed in his heart that if he had the chance, he would make Elder Liu and Gu Changqing pay the price.
If it weren't for their own actions, they wouldn't have ended up like this. They are too cruel.
Elder Liu then shouted towards the door, "Remove this person's cultivation, expel him from the sect, and never allow him to be employed again."
The disciple was then taken away by two other disciples.
Once the matter was resolved, Gu Changqing prepared to leave.
"Chief Gu, please don't be in such a hurry to leave. I have another request to make." Elder Liu said immediately when he saw Gu Changqing about to leave.
Gu Changqing frowned and said speechlessly, "Elder Liu, why do you have so many fuss? I've already solved this problem for you. Is there anything else you need to trouble me with? Do you think I'm too idle? Even if I am idle, I don't want to rest. Does Elder Liu think I'm a machine that doesn't need rest?"
"What machine? I didn't mean that at all. Please don't misunderstand me, Chief Gu. Don't worry, I won't let you help me for nothing. I will definitely prepare a gift for you after it's done."
Elder Liu spoke with a broad smile and a sincere expression.
When Gu Changqing heard that there was a nice gift to give, his expression brightened.
If there's a gift to be had, he certainly has no reason to refuse!
He's not some free tool; if he's put in the effort, he'll definitely want something in return.
Although he already has many rare treasures, who would complain about having too much?
Thinking of this, Gu Changqing smiled slightly and said very politely, "No problem, no problem. Anyway, I don't have anything to do. Elder Liu, please feel free to ask. I will definitely satisfy you."
Elder Liu was particularly shocked to see Gu Changqing's expression change so quickly, and couldn't help but think to himself, "Chief Gu is really fickle!"
"This favor I need from Chief Gu is very simple, and you don't need to go to great lengths. I would like to ask Chief Gu to help me transfer my internal energy," Elder Liu said with a slight smile, very politely.
Upon hearing this, Gu Changqing said dismissively, "I thought it was something serious, but it turns out Elder Liu wants to pass on his skills. That's easy, it's a piece of cake for me."
Elder Liu said with a smile, "It's not for me to pass on my skills, but for others. Of course, if Chief Gu doesn't mind, he can also pass them on to me as well."
"Who could possibly have such influence that Elder Liu would personally plead for him to transfer his skills?" Gu Changqing asked, slightly taken aback.
He wondered if it was his daughter, Liu Qianqian. But he remembered that Liu Qianqian was already at the peak of the Great Emperor realm, which was already very high. Was there any need to pass on the title?
Elder Liu shook his head and said with a smile, "No, it's not Qianqian. Qianqian told me that she has already reached the peak of the Earth Realm and doesn't need to advance any further. It's enough for her. I'm talking about the person next to me."
Upon hearing Elder Liu's words, Gu Changqing finally noticed the disciple beside him.
This disciple was none other than Elder Liu's personal bodyguard, the very disciple whom Elder Liu had mistakenly accused of stealing the sect's sacred artifact.
However, the disciple had already changed his clothes, which is why Gu Changqing hadn't noticed him earlier.
"Oh, it's him!" Gu Changqing said with some surprise.
However, upon further reflection, it seems quite reasonable. Elder Liu probably did this because he felt guilty and indebted to this disciple, so he thought of using this method to make amends.
Elder Liu smiled and said seriously, "It is him. Chief Gu is so smart that he must have already guessed the reason. I misunderstood him before and felt that I should make it up to him. After thinking about it, this is the most suitable and practical one."
When the disciple heard that Elder Liu had actually asked Chief Gu to pass on his skills to him, he was stunned, because he had never heard Elder Liu mention this before.
He looked on in disbelief, as if it were a dream, and felt that he was not worthy of Elder Liu's help.
"Elder Liu, how could I possibly deserve such kindness from you? I truly cannot accept such a favor. How can I ever repay your kindness?" the disciple said earnestly.
"I did this not for your sake, but to ease my own conscience. Besides, your cultivation level is too low, only at the sixth level of the Golden Body Mirror. This won't do. Just accept it." Elder Liu smiled slightly and said earnestly.
Gu Changqing pursed his lips and said, feigning anger, "You only thank Elder Liu, but not me, the chief?"
"It was my oversight, Chief Gu, please don't mind. I thank you in advance for being willing to help me pass on my skills." Upon hearing this, the disciple immediately felt it was inappropriate and quickly said.
In truth, he desperately wanted Chief Gu to pass on his skills to him, but he simply didn't have the opportunity. He dreamed of becoming as powerful as Chief Gu.
Now his dream is finally about to come true, and he is incredibly excited.
