There was no earth-shattering shock, no thunderous explosion. In just a moment, dozens of rock wolves were wiped out.
Ling Hanyu stopped talking, holding a wooden stick in his hand, staring at Gu Qingxi blankly, and after a long while he muttered to himself, "God, monster?"
Gu Qingxi couldn't help laughing, and finally laughed out loud: This kind of cute and silly is what a seven or eight-year-old child should be like.
Just as Gu Qingxi made his move, a burst of rapid gongs and drums sounded in the village, and a group of villagers rushed out carrying crude swords and spears.
This is also the difference between the ancient times and now. At that time, the Tiancang Continent was full of spiritual energy, and the resources for cultivation were endless, so even ordinary people, as long as they had a little qualification, most of them had some cultivation.
Seeing the power of Gu Qingxi's sword, they were also stunned, but they came back to their senses earlier than Ling Hanyu. Throwing away their swords, they rushed to Gu Qingxi, and picked up the children who had not yet run back to the village.
"I am Lü Minghan, an outer disciple of the Jinquan Sect. I pay my respects to the Immortal Master. Thank you for saving me. May I ask what your name is?" The leading old man bowed and said to Gu Qingxi gratefully.
This old man's strength was barely passable, having reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul. He must be the powerful Uncle Lü mentioned by Ling Hanyu.
"Thank you for saving my life, Immortal Master." The other villagers also led the children and kowtowed to Gu Qingxi to express their gratitude.
"Hanyu, why don't you thank the Immortal Master quickly? If it weren't for the Immortal Master's help today, you would have lost all your lives." Lü Minghan also pulled up Hanyu, who was still in a daze, and pressed his head to kowtow to Gu Qingxi.
At the same time, she apologized to Gu Qingxi: "Master Immortal, this child is called Ling Hanyu. His parents died early, and no one taught him etiquette. If I offended you, Master Immortal, please forgive me."
"It's just a small favor, so you don't have to be so polite. And my name is Gu Qingxi, I'm just a casual cultivator, so you don't have to be restrained." Gu Qingxi helped everyone up and said kindly.
Then she looked at Ling Hanyu: "Your name is Ling Hanyu, right? I see that you have extraordinary talent and good character, so I want to take you as my disciple. I wonder if you are willing?"
It was rare to meet such a young man with extraordinary character. For the first time in her life, she had the idea of taking a disciple.
But to her surprise, Ling Hanyu did not answer, but just looked at her hesitantly, as if thinking about something.
"What's there to think about? You have burned several lifetimes of incense to get the blessing of Master Immortal. Why don't you kowtow and become his disciple?" Ling Hanyu did not speak, but Lu Minghan was anxious and pressed his head down to kowtow again.
Others probably couldn't see Gu Qingxi's strength, so how could he not see it?
Even though he had reached the Nascent Soul stage, he could only deal with three or five rock wolves. Facing such a group of rock wolves, he would only seek death.
And Gu Qingxi killed the group of rock wolves with just one sword. What kind of strength is this?
It's just that he is a little too old, otherwise he would have wanted to worship her as his master.
"Disciple greets Master." Ling Hanyu was pressed on the head by Lu Minghan, so he could only kneel on the ground and perform the master-disciple ceremony to Gu Qingxi.
"You are my first disciple, and my sect doesn't have so many red tape. You don't have to perform the ceremony all the time in the future." Gu Qingxi pulled Ling Hanyu up and said. "
Master Immortal, today, thanks to your help, our village was able to escape a disaster. I dare to invite Master Immortal to stay in the village for a few days to thank Master Immortal." Lu Minghan continued.
"I appreciate Daoyou Lu's kindness, but I have something important to do, so I won't stay any longer." After saying this, Gu Qingxi pulled Ling Hanyu out of the village.
Behind him, Lv Minghan led the villagers and bowed again.
"From your expression just now, it seems that you don't want to worship me as your master?" After walking a long way out of the village, Gu Qingxi asked curiously.
"I heard that real immortals can fly." Ling Hanyu was silent for a while, and explained with a little trepidation.
Gu Qingxi laughed dumbly, and then she understood: It turned out that Ling Hanyu didn't see the scene of her falling, and disliked her for being too weak, so he didn't want to worship her as his master.
This little brat, although young, has a lot of ambition.
"Stand firm." Gu Qingxi said, suddenly summoned the flying sword, and then pulled Ling Hanyu into the air.
In the air, a long rainbow was seen rushing straight into the sky, and suddenly turned, spinning, drawing circles of white light, and flying towards the horizon.
"Ah... Help, help..." Ling Hanyu's childish screams followed, echoing between heaven and earth for a long time.
Sure enough, this is what a little brat should be like. He is not cute at all for pretending to be mature at such a young age. Thinking back to that pale little face that was distorted by the strong wind, Gu Qingxi's mouth corners once again showed a wicked smile.
-------------------------------
Looking at the wicked smile on the corners of the master's mouth, Ling Hanyu also remembered the first time he was taken into the air by the unscrupulous master and followed her to fly the sword wildly. He couldn't help but smile, but his smile was full of warmth.
At that time, he was young and ignorant, and of course he knew nothing about the master's strength.
Many years later, he realized how strong the master was and how high his status was in the world of cultivation.
And how lucky he was to be able to worship under the master.
After a long while, Gu Qingxi put away her thoughts, looked at Ling Hanyu's old face, and asked: "Hanyu, after my death, did something happen in the cultivation world?"
Speaking of which, this eldest disciple is indeed quite old to have lived to this day, but his cultivation level back then was only second to hers, and even the Ten Heavenly Monarchs might not be stronger than him.
With his long lifespan, he shouldn't be this old.
"Something happened. Master, please sit down first. I will tell you slowly." Ling Hanyu wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, took out a table and chair from his storage bracelet, and said while brewing spiritual tea:
"Not long after Master passed away, I noticed that someone in Tianyuan Continent tried to break the Sky Mark barrier. Fortunately, there were still some strong people surviving in Tiancang Continent at that time. After discussion, everyone built eight Heaven-asking Towers, which helped to protect the Sky Mark barrier.
I thought that with these eight Heaven-asking Towers, the Sky Mark barrier could at least be defended for another ten thousand years. Who knew that after only a thousand years, someone in Tianyuan Continent bypassed the Sky Mark barrier and made a passage.
Although this passage itself has great limitations and is filled with spatial turbulence, making it difficult for human cultivators to pass through, monsters can pass through it with their powerful body defense.
Unfortunately, with the death of strong people such as Qingyuan Tianjun one by one, the strength of the Tiancang Continent's cultivation world is getting weaker day by day.
If those monsters are allowed to break into Tiancang Continent, there will be chaos in the world and all lives will be destroyed."
At this point, Ling Hanyu couldn't help but sigh, and his eyes became deep and distant, full of pity.
If he guessed correctly, there were already monsters that broke into the Tiancang Continent, and many ordinary people or monks suffered from them.
"So all these years, you have been guarding the passage and suppressing the monsters at the same time?" Gu Qingxi guessed why Ling Hanyu had aged like this.
