Chapter 266 Uncle Gu
In the main hall of Tongming Peak, Chi Yonghao sat bored in the main seat, looking towards the hall entrance: "Didn't they say Gu Liyue was coming? Why hasn't she arrived yet?"
Zhou Ruomu was also in the hall. He looked at the door and said, "Looking at the time, it should be about time."
Another half a quarter of an hour later, Gu Liyue walked into the main hall, looked at the Second Elder and Zhou Ruomu, and performed a disciple's salute: "Greetings, Second Elder, Uncle Zhou."
The Second Elder raised his hand with a smile and said, "Why did Li Yue arrive only now? Sit down and talk."
Gu Liyue sat down and said, "I just ran into two people looking for trouble, which delayed me for a while."
The second elder glanced at Zhou Ruomu, who nodded slightly.
Gu Liyue said, "Last time, I agreed with the Second Elder to use the spiritual herbs from Tongming Peak to refine the elixir. I didn't expect that so many things would happen during my training trip. I only refined a part of it. I hope the Second Elder won't blame me."
The Second Elder waved his hand and said, "You have done a great service by finding the teleportation array that can reach the Cangwu Realm for the Qingxuan Continent. The rest are just trivial matters."
The Second Elder glanced at her and said, "Why didn't you ask Xuanhuo to come with you today? It would have allowed Ruomu to see what the divine beast looked like in its transformed form."
He wished that his people could broaden their horizons.
Zhou Ruomu looked at Gu Liyue and thought: I have never seen a mythical beast that can transform, I am so curious!
Gu Liyue thought of Xuanhuo's impatient look, and said with a slight curl of her lips, "Xuanhuo is impatient to see people. He's been annoyed and has a bad temper lately."
The second elder said, "So that's how it is."
Gu Liyue took out a book on alchemy and said, "This is a book on alchemy that I saw in the Cangwu Realm. Some of the alchemy techniques in it are different from those in the Qingxuan Continent. I think they are more sophisticated. I asked Wen Qinnuan to copy it and bring it to the Second Elder to read."
When the second elder heard that it was something from the Cangwu Realm, he immediately took it and looked at it. Zhou Ruomu also stretched his neck to look at the alchemy book.
These two are of the same lineage, and both are so obsessed with alchemy that they forget to eat and sleep.
Gu Liyue continued, "Last time, I took some spiritual herbs from Tongming Peak and refined a lot of pills, which I gave to Uncle Zhou."
She handed a Qiankun bag to Zhou Ruomu.
She watched the Second Elder reading the Danshu eagerly and didn't want to disturb him.
He stood up and said, "Then I will take my leave."
The Second Elder was shocked. He hadn't even finished reading the book yet! She was leaving, so she was going to take the book with her. Could he borrow it for a few days?
He stood up and said, "Then can this alchemy book..."
Before he could even utter the word "borrow," he heard Gu Liyue say, "Just leave it at Tongming Peak! Give it to the Second Elder."
"Oh, really? Okay, okay. Go ahead. Ruomu, please see Liyue off." The second elder said without even looking up.
Gu Liyue walked outside the palace gate and turned to Zhou Ruomu and said, "Uncle Zhou, there's no need to see me off. I still need to go to Four Phases Peak."
"Okay. If you have time, you can come to Tongming Peak to make pills!" Zhou Ruomu invited.
"Okay." Gu Liyue agreed.
Watching her fly away on her sword, he waved his hand and called his disciples over, saying, "Go and find out who Gu Liyue met on her way here today and what happened?"
The disciple responded, "Yes, Uncle Zhou."
A quarter of an hour later, the disciple came back and recounted what had happened.
Zhou Ruomu asked, "It seems that Pei Baozhu is not a student of Tongming Peak, and she didn't come to Tongming Peak today."
The disciple said, "Yes, she often comes to see Uncle Yin, and seems to live in Uncle Yin's courtyard."
Zhou Ruomu grumbled inwardly: Yin Rutang's talent is quite good, why doesn't she stay on the right path? She's always forming cliques, I don't know what she's thinking.
"Since Pei Baozhu has been taken away by the Punishment Hall, I think she has received the punishment she deserves. Let's forget about this matter."
The disciple agreed and retreated.
…
At Sixiang Peak, Gu Liyue arrived at the main hall entrance. She saw the Vice Dean, with his messy hair, leaning against the doorway, looking out. Upon seeing Gu Liyue, he said happily, "Liyue, why are you here just now? I've been waiting for you for a while. Let's go inside and talk."
Gu Liyue said, "I'm here to hand in the talisman I promised to draw for Sixiang Peak when I received the materials last time. Vice Dean, you don't have to be so polite and greet me at the hall gate."
"Let's go to the hall and talk." The vice-president looked at her lovingly and pointed inside the hall, saying, "Just leave those to your Senior Sister Yi."
Yi Yan was in the hall, handling the affairs of the peak. When she heard the voice, she looked up and saw Gu Liyue. She was shocked: Gu Liyue's cultivation level was increasing too fast. He was already in the middle stage of the Golden Core.
Gu Liyue looked at Yi Yan and called out, "Senior Sister Yi."
"Liyue, you're back."
"Yes, these are the talismans I drew. Please keep them, Senior Sister."
Yi Yan took the Qiankun bag that Gu Liyue handed over and put it away.
"Junior sister, do you want to get some more materials for drawing talismans?"
Gu Liyue thought about it and didn't know if she had time to draw talismans: "No, maybe I won't have time to draw talismans next time."
"Junior sister, are you going out to gain experience again?"
"No, I have to leave the academy for a while." As she said that, she looked at the vice-president. It seemed that the vice-president had not yet told Senior Sister Yi Yan about the affairs of the Cangwu Realm.
She took out the copied talisman book and handed it to the vice president: "This is the new talisman book I got over there. I'm giving it to the vice president."
The vice president said in surprise: "Is it for me? Thank you!"
He took the book of talismans and started flipping through it.
When Yi Yan saw the vice-president, he ignored her because he had Dan Shu to read. She had no choice but to entertain Gu Liyue and had someone serve tea and snacks.
Gu Liyue said, "Senior Sister, don't bother me. I also need to go back to practice. I'm leaving now."
When the vice president heard that she was leaving, he just looked up and said, "Then go ahead."
Yi Yan escorted her out of the palace and said, "Master is just like that. He doesn't have any objections to you."
Gu Liyue said: "It's okay, I know. I'm leaving, you don't have to see me off."
Yi Yan watched Gu Liyue fly away on his sword.
After returning to Lingxiao Peak, Gu Liyue entered the space to practice.
That day, Fu Qingyun came to her and said to her, "Gu Liyue, today is the day of the monthly competition. Do you want to go with me?"
Gu Liyue thought that instead of always practicing sword skills alone in space, it would be better to practice some actual combat. Many sword moves and sword techniques require fighting with others to know their effects.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
The two men arrived at the martial arts training ground of Lingxiao Peak and found that it was already crowded with people. There were already people on the ten arenas surrounding the martial arts training ground.
When the people around saw Fu Qingyun and Gu Liyue approaching, they all looked towards them and greeted Fu Qingyun, "Uncle Master Fu."
Fu Qingyun nodded and pointed at Gu Liyue, saying, "This is your Uncle Gu."
Gu Liyue was stunned. Yes, she was in the Golden Core stage, and was also a senior apprentice in front of these students in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages.
