Chapter 160

On Jinao Island.

Gu Xiu took a Ren Water Peach and started eating it, watching the situation outside Jinao Island.

Seeing Taiqing Laozi appear, Yuanshi and Tong Tian stopped fighting.

Soon he took Yuanshi Tianzun away.

He was puzzled in his heart about what Taiqing Laozi had said that could make Yuanshi Tianzun leave so easily.

Yun Xiao on the side saw Taiqing Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun leave together, and her tense expression finally relaxed.

She didn't expect that someone would really come to stop it just as Gu Xiu said.

But she didn't expect the person who came to be Saint Taiqing.

Sensing Yun Xiao's gaze, Gu Xiu turned his head.

"Master, are you wondering why the disciple was so sure that someone would stop it?"

Yun Xiao nodded gently.

Qiong Xiao also cast her gaze over.

Bi Xiao saw Gu Xiu eating a peach and also asked for one to eat just now.

Hearing the discussion, while eating the peach, she curiously leaned over, her large eyes full of confusion.

"Gu Xiu, tell us quickly."

Gu Xiu smiled indifferently.

"Master, Uncle-Master, the Investiture of the Gods involves too many causes and effects, and the three sects are involved in it. In a one-on-one fight, the Sect Leader is not afraid of the Yuqing Saint. Someone will definitely not let the battle expand. Even if Saint Taiqing doesn't appear, there is still the Dao Ancestor above. He will not let two Saints continue to fight, otherwise, this world might be torn apart."

Gu Xiu saw the situation of the Investiture of the Gods so clearly, which surprised Yun Xiao a little.

She secretly praised in her heart that she had really taken in a good disciple.

Qiong Xiao followed Gu Xiu's words and also agreed with this point of view, secretly pondering in her heart that Gu Xiu's comprehension was so high and he saw so far. Maybe if there were any problems in the future, she could ask for his opinion, and maybe there would be new insights.

Bi Xiao, who was originally eating a melon, saw the expressions of her two sisters.

After thinking about it, she also suddenly realized, and while chewing the peach, she said.

"Gu Xiu, you were not nervous at all from the beginning. It turns out you had a plan in your heart. I have to say, your brain is really bright."

Gu Xiu smiled: "Uncle-Master Bi Xiao, your words are always so characteristic."

Being stared at by the Three Xiao sisters like this, Gu Xiu felt a little embarrassed, and a slightly awkward smile appeared on his face.

Fortunately, at this time, Tong Tian returned to Jinao Island.

"All disciples, come to the Dharma Transmission Square immediately!" Tong Tian's voice sounded like a great bell.

The disciples dared not delay in the slightest and went to the Dharma Transmission Square one after another.

Yun Xiao glanced at the disciples who were using various supernatural powers to rush to the Dharma Transmission Square and said: "Gu Xiu, Second Sister, Third Sister, let's go quickly too. Having just repelled a great enemy, the Sect Leader must have something to say."

Gu Xiu nodded.

Tong Tian fought Yuanshi Tianzun to protect him. Anyone could be missing, but he could not.

He followed the Three Xiao sisters to the Dharma Transmission Square.

At this time, ten thousand immortals were gathered on the Dharma Transmission Square.

Tong Tian had just repelled Yuanshi, and such a tough behavior made all the disciples very worshipful and excited.

They were all wondering if Tong Tian was planning to go to war with the Chan Sect by gathering all the disciples.

Tong Tian Jiaozhu stood on the high platform, his gaze sweeping over the disciples below.

He locked onto Gu Xiu in the crowd.

Seeing Gu Xiu's indifferent expression, he didn't seem to be frightened by this battle of Saints.

He nodded with satisfaction.

Following that, he withdrew his gaze and said to the disciples in a deep voice.

"My Jie Sect has always had conflicting concepts with the Chan Sect, so there have been constant conflicts. Today's matter represents the complete rupture between the two sects, but my Jie Sect has ten thousand immortals coming to court, so we don't need to fear the Chan Sect."

The disciples, who were originally as silent as cicadas in winter, heard this and said in unison: "We are willing to follow the Sect Leader to resist the Chan Sect together, and we will not hesitate even if we die!"

Tong Tian Jiaozhu nodded slightly, looking at the disciples with satisfaction.

"Currently, there is a great calamity in the world, and the Dao Ancestor has formulated the Investiture of the Gods, allowing the disciples of the three sects to enter the list."

"This calamity was originally caused by the Chan Sect and has nothing to do with my Jie Sect. But the Dao Ancestor's decree is not something I can easily violate. I originally wanted to let you stay on Jinao Island with peace of mind until the calamity passed, but the Chan Sect wants to use the Investiture of the Gods to scheme against my Jie Sect, so we have to fight back."

"Regarding the Investiture of the Gods, I have already let Duobao be responsible. You just need to follow Duobao's instructions."

"At the same time, I have just agreed with Saint Taiqing that my Jie Sect will not interfere with the Chan Sect's Investiture of the Gods, so the Investiture of the Gods layout made by my Jie Sect will focus on defense and counter-measures."

"We don't look for trouble, but we are not afraid of trouble. If the Chan Sect takes the initiative to provoke us, you can take action to send them on the list."

These words made the disciples excited.

In the past, they didn't understand Tong Tian. The Jie Sect's strength was clearly higher than the two sects.

It was the first great sect in the Primordial world, yet it was forbearing towards the Chan Sect everywhere and let the Chan Sect insult them.

This led to many disciples in the Jie Sect having complaints.

Now seeing Tong Tian so tough, the previous resentment dissipated.

They shouted in unison.

"Sect Leader, please rest assured. If the Chan Sect dares to scheme against the Jie Sect, we will definitely make them never return, and we will not lose the prestige of the Jie Sect!"

Tong Tian nodded.

"No matter what difficulties there are, I will face them with you and overcome the difficulties together. Don't forget to cultivate diligently and improve your strength."

"We will follow the Sect Leader's teachings!"

Seeing that the ten thousand immortals of the Jie Sect were so excited, Gu Xiu was slightly stunned.

This scene should not have appeared originally.

It seems that the trajectory of fate has begun to turn in the direction he expected.

He became more and more confident in his heart to lead the Three Xiao sisters and the Jie Sect to safely pass through the Great Calamity of the Investiture of the Gods.

The disciples were high in fighting spirit, and Tong Tian was very gratified in his heart: "Disperse, go back and cultivate well!"

After the disciples bowed, they left the Dharma Transmission Square in an orderly manner.

At the same time.

Mount Kunlun.

Jade Void Palace.

As soon as Yuanshi Tianzun returned, he asked.

"Eldest Brother, Tong Tian killed Huanglong. Not letting Tong Tian hand over the murderer, I cannot swallow this breath. Since you came, why didn't you join forces with me to deal with Tong Tian?"

"Huanglong is one of the Twelve Golden Immortals and represents the face of the Chan Sect. It cannot be left like that."

Taiqing Laozi's expression was calm, and he said indifferently: "Second Brother, I know you are angry, but haven't you noticed that Tong Tian has changed?"

Yuanshi Tianzun was silent and did not speak.

Taiqing Laozi continued: "Tong Tian seems to have really known about our plans, but has been forbearing. If it weren't for Huanglong's death, I wouldn't dare to be sure. This is a bit unlike him."

"And Tong Tian doesn't give any face at all. It's clear that he is determined to protect that disciple and won't hand him over to you for punishment. If we continue to entangle, the situation will only get more out of control."

"The Four Immortal-Slaying Swords cannot be broken without four Saints. It is not yet time for us to fight Tong Tian to the death."

"When signing the Investiture of the Gods, both sides agreed to follow their own fate, and those with insufficient blessings go on the list. If Tong Tian makes trouble to the Master, we have no reason either, so Second Brother, you might as well be forbearing for now."

Yuanshi Tianzun's face was gloomy, but he still said slowly: "Eldest Brother, what do you intend to do?"

Taiqing Laozi pondered: "You let people stop the act of hunting Jie Sect registered disciples outside. Let's plan well, send a few important Jie Sect disciples on the list, and weaken the Jie Sect's power. That is the right thing to do. By then, it will be too late for Tong Tian to fight us to the death."

Yuanshi Tianzun's eyes turned cold.

"Wait until all those fur-clad and horn-bearing creatures of the Jie Sect are sent on the list, I will definitely make Tong Tian regret provoking me today!"
