~4 min read 715 words

Jinao Island.

Daoist Duobao had just received news from disciples in Xiqi that Ji Chang was attacked by the Chan Sect traitor Shen Gongbao.

He was about to call Holy Mother Huo Ling to tell Gu Xiu this news, wanting to see what Gu Xiu thought about this, but he was a little surprised to see Gu Xiu coming to visit himself.

Walking out of the cave, Daoist Duobao showed his iconic approachable smile.

"Gu Xiu, you came just in time, there is one thing I just wanted to tell you."

Gu Xiu, who was waiting outside, saw Daoist Duobao come out, stepped forward and bowed slightly, and asked suspiciously, "I wonder what Uncle wants to tell me?"

Duobao looked at Gu Xiu, his expression humble, his voice gentle and mellow.

"The disciples sent to Xiqi to inquire about news just sent back news that the Chan Sect traitor Shen Gongbao appeared in Xiqi and attacked Ji Chang, and was blocked by the Old Immortal of the South Pole. What do you think about this?"

Daoist Duobao remembered that Gu Xiu once said that Shen Gongbao was an important part of the Chan Sect's layout for the Investiture of the Gods.

One singing the white face and one singing the black face with Jiang Ziya.

Facing Duobao's gaze, Gu Xiu said calmly, "Uncle, I came here specifically for this matter."

Hearing this, Daoist Duobao frowned, his eyes puzzled.

This news just came back, and he hadn't told a second person except himself.

"Gu Xiu, could it be that you already knew about Shen Gongbao attacking Ji Chang?"

Gu Xiu nodded lightly and smiled, "Uncle, I also just learned about it not long ago, and I also know that Shen Gongbao failed to attack Ji Chang, worried about being punished by the Chan Sect, and is planning to flee to the East Sea to seek the protection of the Jie Sect."

"You said Shen Gongbao plans to seek the protection of the Jie Sect?" Hearing this news, Daoist Duobao was a little surprised.

Gu Xiu nodded, "Yes, Uncle, this matter is beyond doubt."

Learning that Gu Xiu couldn't lie about such things, Daoist Duobao pondered for a moment.

"I remember you said before that Shen Gongbao is a chess piece for the Chan Sect's layout of the Investiture of the Gods. If he comes to the East Sea to seek the protection of the Jie Sect, he will fall into the Chan Sect's plot. Could it be that all this is pushed by the Chan Sect?"

Gu Xiu smiled indifferently.

"The Chan Sect does want to use Shen Gongbao to lure my Jie Sect disciples out one by one and break them one by one, but whether all this is deliberately pushed by the Chan Sect, Shen Gongbao is dead, and the Chan Sect cannot count on this chess piece for the time being, so we don't need to worry."

"Shen Gongbao is dead? What does this mean?" Duobao didn't quite understand Gu Xiu's words, "Could it be that Junior Nephew killed Shen Gongbao?"

Gu Xiu didn't speak and took out Shen Gongbao's head.

Duobao frowned, "Whose head is this?"

"Uncle, this is Shen Gongbao's head."

Daoist Duobao was slightly stunned, "Junior Nephew, didn't you say that Shen Gongbao is a chess piece of the Chan Sect and cannot be moved?"

Gu Xiu told the rhetoric he thought of when he came, "Uncle, the timing was not mature before, so the disciple wanted to observe for a while, but now the Chan Sect has already taken action against my Jie Sect, and we should also take some action."

"What's more, Shen Gongbao is a traitor of the Chan Sect on the surface, and the Jade Void Palace issued a wanted order for the Three Realms. We killed Shen Gongbao, nominally responding to the Jade Void Palace's wanted order, and the Chan Sect can only suffer a dumb loss even if they know."

After pondering about what Gu Xiu said, Daoist Duobao nodded.

"It makes sense, but you brought Shen Gongbao's head to find me, you should have other plans, right?"

Gu Xiu smiled awkwardly.

"Sure enough, nothing can hide from Uncle."

Then, he told the plan to let Duobao run errands to the Jade Void Palace.
