Chapter 143
After sending the letter to Wen Zhong, Gu Xiu summoned the Water and Fire Qilin.
He was already a Da Luo Golden Immortal, but the two Qilins were only at the Golden Immortal realm, which was a bit behind.
Relying solely on the two Qilins to cultivate by themselves, it would probably take a long time to break through to Taiyi Golden Immortal.
The reward given by the system this time was just right, and it could help the two Qilins improve their strength quickly.
In the following time, having nothing to do, Gu Xiu sat cross-legged in the courtyard to meditate.
It was not until he noticed someone coming outside the courtyard that he opened his eyes slightly.
He found that the people coming were the Three Clouds and Daoist Duobao.
Gu Xiu pondered in his heart.
The Three Clouds were clearly accompanying Daoist Duobao.
As for Daoist Duobao, he was probably here to inform him of the results of this trip to Mount Kunlun and, by the way, to fish for information from him.
Otherwise, as the nominal eldest senior brother of the Jie Sect, how could he come to explain to him in person?
Withdrawing his thoughts, he stood up and stepped forward: "Greetings, Master, Uncle, Uncle Duobao."
Yun Xiao nodded slightly: "Gu Xiu, Brother Duobao's trip to Jade Void Palace went very smoothly, so we came here specifically to inform you."
Bi Xiao added on the side: "Brother Duobao said that when he went to Jade Void Palace to deliver Shen Gongbao's head and belongings, he specifically expressed his condolences. The Twelve Golden Immortals were furious when they heard it. It's a pity we weren't there, otherwise I definitely wouldn't have been able to help laughing out loud."
Gu Xiu smiled helplessly and looked at Duobao: "I have troubled you, Uncle Duobao."
Duobao smiled: "What are you saying? This idea was yours, Nephew. I just ran the errand, so I'll just treat it as relaxing."
Ever since the Three Pure Ones separated and moved from Mount Kunlun to Jin'ao Island.
Duobao had thought about the day he would return to Mount Kunlun, but he didn't expect to return in this way.
Pausing for a moment, Duobao quickly returned to his usual demeanor.
"Although this move can anger the Chan Sect, it will definitely provoke the revenge of the Twelve Golden Immortals. What is your opinion on this, Nephew?"
Having long expected Duobao to come here to fish for information, Gu Xiu was not surprised at all.
After thinking for a moment, he expressed his thoughts.
"It's still the same as what I said before. The Chan Sect's purpose is to use my Jie Sect's disciples to fill the Investiture of the Gods list and eliminate the killing calamity brought by the Twelve Golden Immortals. It can be considered as cleaning up their own mess..."
When signing the Investiture of the Gods.
Taishang, Yuanshi, Jieyin, and Zhunti forced Tongtian to sign the Investiture of the Gods, agreeing to decide the outcome on the mortal battlefield.
But because Tongtian was forced, he ignored the matter of the Investiture of the Gods after returning.
The reason why Taishang, Yuanshi, Jieyin, and Zhunti wanted to decide the outcome on the mortal battlefield was because they knew that the Jie Sect was the number one sect in the Primordial.
If they let the Ren Sect and Chan Sect disciples fight the Jie Sect disciples head-on, there would be no chance of winning at all, which is why they planned to use this method.
The four Saints understood Tongtian's character and knew that Tongtian would definitely not pay attention to this matter after returning, but this played right into the hands of the four Saints, giving them a good opportunity to layout and defeat the Jie Sect one by one.
They created a Shen Gongbao to lure Jie Sect disciples down the mountain one by one into the trap, and also caused trouble in Zhaoge, damaging the fortune of the Yin Shang.
Fortunately, Shen Gongbao was already dead, but the Chan Sect would definitely find another way, so he still couldn't let his guard down.
After Gu Xiu expressed his views, he said.
"Master, Uncle Duobao, that is my view. We don't need to worry about the replacement of mortal dynasties; we just need to focus our target on the Twelve Golden Immortals."
"As long as we can get the Twelve Golden Immortals on the list, the Chan Sect will have no power to deal with my Jie Sect. With the culprits executed, the Investiture of the Gods will also end."
Gu Xiu's words made the Three Clouds and Duobao ponder.
After a while, Duobao spoke.
"Not participating in the disputes of mortal dynasties and directly taking action against the Twelve Golden Immortals, not giving the Chan Sect a chance to defeat us one by one, is indeed the most direct and effective method. But we cannot directly execute the Twelve Golden Immortals now, otherwise we won't be able to answer to the Second Uncle."
It was precisely because of this worry that they didn't dare to kill them when they defeated Master Yuding and Master Daoxing last time, otherwise the Twelve Golden Immortals would have been fewer in number by now.
Although the Three Clouds didn't speak, they also tacitly agreed with Duobao's words and all looked at Gu Xiu, wanting to know what Gu Xiu thought.
Gu Xiu smiled indifferently.
"Uncle, your worry is very reasonable, which is why I asked you to deliver Shen Gongbao's head to Jade Void Palace and ask with false concern. The Chan Sect will definitely have new movements, especially since the Twelve Golden Immortals are arrogant and proud; surely some will be unconvinced and take action against my Jie Sect disciples again. We will then go along with their plan and carry out a counter-kill."
"Although the Jade Pure Saint protects his own, we have sufficient reasons to stand our ground, and the Grand Ancestor will also have the confidence to protect us."
In Gu Xiu's impression, the Jie Sect was almost schemed to death by the four Saints.
Taishang Laojun and Yuanshi Tianzun personally entered the arena to kill Jie Sect disciples.
Only then did Tongtian break with Yuanshi Tianzun and Taishang Laojun.
Although the Three Pure Ones had not reached that step yet.
But Tongtian had previously taken action against Yuanshi Tianzun to maintain him, which showed that the development of things was moving further and further away from the original trajectory.
But for the sake of safety, Gu Xiu still planned to go to Biyou Palace later to confirm Tongtian's thoughts.
Hearing Gu Xiu's words, Duobao showed approval: "This trick of going along with their plan is indeed very clever, and it coincides with my thoughts."
Yun Xiao also nodded.
"The Twelve Golden Immortals of Jade Void are the source of this Great Calamity. It is best to prevent it from the source. If it can be successful, it can also avoid the Chan Sect causing the mortal world to fall into war and leading to the suffering of all living things for the sake of pushing the Investiture of the Gods."
As she spoke, her gaze toward Gu Xiu was full of expectation and curiosity. She didn't even expect that the disciple she had taught herself would have so many strategies, and each one was very useful.
Bi Xiao on the side was excited to hear that they were finally going to take action against the Twelve Golden Immortals.
"This Great Calamity has made us afraid to go out to find treasures, and we have missed many opportunities. Staying on Three Immortals Island all the time is so boring. It's finally time to directly send the Twelve Golden Immortals onto the list and end the Investiture of the Gods, so that we can go out to find treasures."
Qiong Xiao's expression was slightly condensed, and she said coldly: "Count me in for such a thing. If the Chan Sect is unrighteous, don't blame us for being unrighteous. It's better to end this dispute between the three sects as soon as possible."
Seeing that everyone agreed to take action directly against the Twelve Golden Immortals and not play the game of mortal dynasty replacement with the Chan Sect.
Gu Xiu was very satisfied.
He also wanted to end the Investiture of the Gods as soon as possible, so that he could be carefree, such as living with his Master and accompanying his Uncle to soak in the fairy spring, and fully experiencing the fun of cultivating immortality.
He looked at Duobao and said: "Uncle Duobao, you can talk to Uncle Jin Ling, Uncle Gui Ling, and Uncle Wu Dang."
Duobao smiled: "Rest assured, Nephew, just leave this matter to me."
Having determined what to do next, Duobao planned to leave.
Gu Xiu called him to stop: "Uncle Duobao, I will go back to Jin'ao Island with you."
Duobao stopped and turned around: "Nephew, are you going to visit the Master?"
Now that he, the Jie Sect's eldest senior brother, was here, if Gu Xiu had anything to say, he could just tell him, but he still wanted to go to Jin'ao Island. Without thinking, it must be to visit Tongtian at Biyou Palace.
The Three Clouds also cast curious gazes.
Gu Xiu nodded, not denying it: "I want to go to Biyou Palace to visit the Grand Ancestor and talk about some things."
Duobao didn't ask any more questions and smiled: "In that case, Nephew, let's go back to Jin'ao Island together."
Gu Xiu nodded and said no more, following Daoist Duobao to leave Three Immortals Island and head toward Jin'ao Island.
