As the power of the elixir flowed into the meridians, a trace of immortal power merged into it.
The power of the elixir was still vast and boundless, but it became soft like water, just like one's own spiritual power.
Gu Qingxi not only did not feel any pain, but felt like she was immersed in a hot spring, and her body was light and indescribably comfortable.
As the power of the elixir flowed through the meridians, bottlenecks were broken one by one without her noticing, and her cultivation level increased rapidly...
"I didn't expect Gu Qingxi to have such a mind at such a young age. I miscalculated, miscalculated." Outside Luoshui City, Elder Gao said with annoyance, anger, and frustration.
As mentioned earlier, although he is the seventh elder of the Aotian Sect, he was born a commoner, and his family background is completely different from that of the children of Mu Shaobo's aristocratic family.
So over the years, he has been cautious and careful, thinking twice before doing anything.
It is precisely because of this caution that he can survive to this day in the Tianyuan Continent where the strong are respected, and finally sit on the position of elder.
Who would have thought that after living a life of caution, he would end up in a ditch when he was old, falling into the hands of a little girl twice in a row. It would be strange if he was not angry, annoyed, and aggrieved.
Although it was Mu Shaobo who foolishly shouted out the sky-high price of 1 billion before, he stood by and did not come forward to stop him. With the habit of the Lord of the Mansion to protect his shortcomings, he estimated that this black pot would most likely be put on his head.
Even if someone helped to intercede, he would definitely be accused of being a vain person.
"Elder Gao, Gu Qingxi even dared to plot against me. It is clear that she did not take our Aotian Sect Mansion seriously. Can you really let her go like this?" Mu Shaobo said indignantly.
Even if Elder Gao took the blame, he was still an elder.
But he was different. When today's incident was reported back to the Aotian Sect, he would definitely become a joke among his cousins, and most of the other elders would be very disappointed in him.
Not to mention inheriting the position of the Lord of the Mansion in the future, it would be difficult to sit firmly in the position of the Young Lord of the Mansion.
Therefore, he was more depressed and aggrieved than Elder Gao, and he hated Gu Qingxi even more.
Hearing this, Elder Gao narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not rush to answer.
If possible, he would have wanted to slap Gu Qingxi into a pulp to vent his hatred.
But no matter what, Piaoyun Sect is a top-grade sect, and Gu Qingxi, as a guest elder, cannot be killed at will. After all,
although Gu Qingxi was the first to dig the pit for the auction, she did not push and drag Mu Shaobo to jump into it. It was her own young master who jumped into the pit on his own initiative because he was too proud of himself. If
they did not have a suitable reason and rashly attacked Gu Qingxi, it would mean that they would attack Piaoyun Sect, which would definitely break the balance between the five major sects and the sect families.
Not to mention that the other sect families would not agree, the other four major sects would never agree.
If the matter got out of hand, Aotian Sect would likely arouse public anger and become the target of public criticism. No matter how strong the Aotian Sect is, it will not escape the fate of being destroyed.
Elder Gao has been cautious all his life. No matter how much he hates Gu Qingxi, he dare not take such a risk.
"Elder Gao, if I am not mistaken, the Shendao Pill should have fallen into Gu Qingxi's hands." Seeing Elder Gao's hesitation, Mu Shaobo reminded him. Elder Gao
immediately understood what he meant
. Gu Qingxi took out ten storage bags earlier. He also saw it with his own eyes. He used his spiritual sense to explore and "saw" the mountains of spiritual stones in them. Even he was secretly shocked.
They had already investigated the details of those old friends of the Luo family, and they would definitely not be able to compete with Gu Qingxi. The Shendao Pills that the Luo family has treasured for generations will definitely fall into Gu Qingxi's hands in the end, and there will be no surprises.
And they came to Luoshui City this time for the Shendao Pill.
As long as Gu Qingxi was killed and the Shendao Pill was snatched, Mu Shaobai's almost stupid behavior at the auction was not a big deal at all, and no one dared to sneer at him.
He can make up for his mistakes and not worry about taking the blame.
It must be said that Mu Shaobo's reminder hit the nail on the head for Elder Gao.
He
was born in an ordinary family and was originally the least respected of the seven elders of Aotian Sect. If he is labeled as a figurehead this time, who will take him, the seventh elder, seriously in the future?
He has worked hard all his life and finally got to his current position. If he can avoid taking the blame, of course he will try his best not to.
With a gleam in his eyes, Elder Gao was tempted.
"But what if Gu Qingxi has already taken the Shendao Pill?" However, he was tempted but did not lose his mind. He said after a moment of silence.
Others will forget the pain after their scars have healed, but his scars haven't healed yet, so of course he won't make mistakes easily.
"Without the Shinto Pill, doesn't she still have Spiritual Stones?
Gu Qingxi can easily take out more than a billion Spiritual Stones, and her wealth is definitely more than that. She shouldn't need that many Spiritual Stones to bid for the Shinto Pill." Mu Shaobo had expected him to have such doubts, and had already thought of a reason.
"That's true." Elder Gao nodded, and was even more excited.
According to the estimates of the Lord of the Palace and the Great Elder, the few Shinto Pills of the Luo family would only be sold for 600 to 700 million Spiritual Stones at most. It's not that the Shinto Pill is only worth so much money, but that the sects and families participating in this auction can only afford so much money.
Even if Gu Qingxi spends a little more money, it won't be much more.
In other words, even if she has taken all the Shinto Pills, the remaining wealth is enough to make up for their losses, and maybe even make a lot of money. Although
the task assigned by the Lord of the Palace has not been completed, as long as they bring back all the Spiritual Stones, they have an explanation and don't have to worry about being criticized.
"Elder Gao, shall we go back to Luoshui City now?" Seeing that Elder Gao was persuaded by him, Mu Shaobo said impatiently.
"No, Piaoyun Sect is a top-grade sect after all. This matter must be kept secret and no news can be leaked. There are many people in Luoshui City, how can we do it in the city." Elder Gao rejected it flatly.
Mu Shaobo also knew that he was too eager and did not argue with him.
"Also, although the strength of the several peak masters of Piaoyun Sect
is not too high, they are not weak. If they are determined to escape, I may not be able to keep them.
I will recruit some more disciples and wait for them to come out outside the city." After a pause, Elder Gao said with a fierce look on his face.
The so-called prudence is not indecision, nor is it looking ahead and behind.
The real prudence is to be tolerant when it is time to be tolerant, to act resolutely when it is time to act, to cut the grass and root out the trouble forever.
"Elder Gao, with the strength of your disciples, I'm afraid they won't be of much use, won't it backfire?" Mu Shaobo gathered his Qi and transmitted his voice, saying disapprovingly.
Elder Gao has the lowest status among the seven elders of Aotian Sect, so he is always the last one to accept disciples.
Although he has many disciples, there is not a single one with good qualifications. In addition, Elder Gao's family is limited and he cannot give them too many cultivation resources. The highest level of those disciples is only in the middle stage of the tribulation, and the lowest level is not even at the tribulation.
What's worse is that all of these people have practiced for more than a thousand years, and their potential has almost been exhausted, and there is no possibility of improvement.
Although Mu Shaobo has not been promoted to the Mahayana, he is still young, and there is almost no suspense about his promotion to the Mahayana in the future. Of course, he will not take such useless people seriously.
"Their cultivation is a little bit lacking, but they have been following my instructions for these years and have been practicing the art of formation. With their help, I can set up the Immortal Killing Formation." Elder Gao knew what Mu Shaobo was thinking, and he also gathered his energy and transmitted his voice, speaking calmly.
"The Immortal Killing Formation!" Mu Shaobo was shocked.
The Immortal Killing Formation is the unique and unique skill of the Aotian Sect. As far as he knows, in the past thousand years, only the Palace Master, the Grand Elder, and the Great Elder have learned it.
But he didn't expect that Elder Gao had quietly mastered this formation.
"In short, I have recruited them for great use, so the Young Palace Master doesn't have to worry too much." Seeing his shocked face, Elder Gao showed a bit of pride on his face.
"Okay, this time we must make Gu Qingxi regret her decision and let her die without a burial place!" Mu Shaobo said excitedly.
