Chapter 51: Martial uncle, please respect yourself; Dao Xing

Nuwa's sudden arrival also had Yun Xiao, Qiong Xiao, and Bi Xiao paying attention to the situation on Gu Xiu's side.

Qiong Xiao's willow brows furrowed slightly, and her beautiful eyes were filled with doubt: "Eldest Sister, Empress Nuwa's visit this time doesn't seem to be just for Yang Chan. It looks like she is quite familiar with our martial nephew."

Bi Xiao was also full of curiosity, blinking her lively big eyes.

"Eldest Sister, could it be that Gu Xiu's rapid increase in cultivation recently has something to do with Empress Nuwa?"

Yun Xiao shook her head gently.

"With a Saint's methods, it is indeed possible to raise someone to a Taiyi Golden Immortal or even a Da Luo Golden Immortal in a short time, but that would require spiritual pills and top-grade heavenly materials. Empress Nuwa and Gu Xiu have no relationship, so it is impossible for her to use those precious materials on Gu Xiu. Being able to have everything he has now should be Gu Xiu's own fate."

When Gu Xiu was a mortal, he basically stayed with her, and she watched him go from a mortal to a Heavenly Immortal step by step.

But ever since she returned to the Three Immortals Island and was briefly separated from Gu Xiu, she found that Gu Xiu was very different, and his cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds.

He had even gained Nuwa's appreciation without her knowing when.

Although she couldn't figure it out, he was her disciple after all, and as long as things were developing in a good direction, it was fine.

Bi Xiao, in a green shirt, feigned anger with her beautiful face, waving her pink little fists, and said angrily: "No matter what, when Empress Nuwa leaves, I must go and ask Gu Xiu to honestly explain how many things he is hiding from us. Eldest Sister, don't stop me."

Looking at Bi Xiao's lovable appearance, Yun Xiao shook her head helplessly and said with doting eyes: "I really can't do anything about you, girl. But stop messing around. If you don't cultivate diligently, Gu Xiu will soon catch up to you."

Hearing this, a look of dissatisfaction appeared on Bi Xiao's pretty face, and she pouted: "Eldest Sister, even if I am lazy for a while, your precious disciple won't be able to catch up to me."

Seeing Bi Xiao pounce on her, Yun Xiao poked Bi Xiao's fair forehead: "Gu Xiu is progressing rapidly. If you continue to be so lax and lazy, it is only a matter of time before he surpasses you."

……

On the other side.

Nuwa didn't stay long and soon left with Yang Chan.

Watching Nuwa break through the void and disappear into the Chaos with Yang Chan, Gu Xiu shook his head in regret.

He had wanted to get on good terms with Nuwa so she would help him during the Investiture of the Gods, but things hadn't progressed smoothly.

He frowned, his eyes showing a look of contemplation.

"I have to think of a way."

Shaking his head, he moved to the stone table and sat down.

A graceful figure fluttered over and landed lightly opposite Gu Xiu, bringing a burst of fragrance.

With this familiar fragrance, Gu Xiu knew it was Bi Xiao without looking.

He looked up at her: "Martial aunt, why are you here?"

Bi Xiao's eyes flowed with liveliness, and she leaned over, her beautiful eyes staring tightly at Gu Xiu.

"Gu Xiu, are you hiding many things from us?"

Gu Xiu felt his scalp tingle from Bi Xiao's stare; the distance was so close that they could feel each other's breath.

He subconsciously shrank back.

"Martial aunt, I... really don't have anything to hide from you."

Bi Xiao was relentless, leaning forward a few more inches, her voice lowered but full of pressure: "Hmph, still saying you don't? Your eyes are dodging, you clearly have a guilty conscience."

Gu Xiu really wanted to say that you are almost sticking your face on me, how can I not dodge.

He took a deep breath: "Martial aunt, what do you want to know?"

"Tell me how you know Empress Nuwa, and why she seems to appreciate you so much?"

"Is that all? Martial aunt, you should have said so earlier." Gu Xiu was startled, thinking Bi Xiao knew something else.

Bi Xiao raised her eyebrows, a flash of curiosity in her eyes.

"What do you mean 'is that all'? Could it be that you have other things you are hiding from us?"

"Of course not." Gu Xiu decisively denied: "Martial aunt, do you still remember the human tribe we went to?"

"I told you at the time that when I was worshiping Empress Nuwa's statue, I was received by her, which is why the people of the Shi tribe treated me as a Saint Teacher."

Bi Xiao thought for a moment; it seemed Gu Xiu had indeed told her about this.

"You did say that, but you didn't say why Empress Nuwa wanted to see you, or why you went to the human tribe to worship Empress Nuwa's statue. I didn't pay much attention at the time, but Empress Nuwa's visit to the Three Immortals Island, besides coming to pick up Yang Chan, was clearly aimed at you. There must be something fishy in it."

After finishing, she glared with her beautiful eyes and said coquettishly: "You brat, are you still not telling the truth?"

Gu Xiu sighed, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "Martial aunt, if you want to hear it, I will tell you. Lean your ear over and I'll tell you."

Bi Xiao was slightly startled, then snorted: "Hmph, making it so mysterious, I want to hear what earth-shattering secret you can say." Saying this, she leaned her ear over.

Gu Xiu lowered his voice and whispered in Bi Xiao's ear: "Someone wants to plot against Empress Nuwa, and I happened to run into it..."

After listening, Bi Xiao's eyes widened, her face full of surprise.

Someone actually dared to plot against a Saint.

"Martial aunt, this matter involves a Saint. Besides telling Master and Martial Aunt Qiong Xiao, don't say anything more."

Bi Xiao was usually noisy, but when it involved a Saint, she didn't dare to talk too much.

She nodded with a solemn expression.

"You can rest assured, but this also explains why Empress Nuwa came here."

……

Jintingshan, Yuwudong.

The cave was filled with immortal energy, like smoke and mist.

Dao Xing Tianzun was practicing diligently in his cave.

Suddenly, a strong sense of irritability surged in his heart, and his originally calm state of mind was instantly broken.

He opened his eyes abruptly, a flash of suspicion in them; his intuition told him that something big had happened.

He immediately pinched his fingers to calculate, and as his magic power surged, Dao Xing Tianzun's face became increasingly gloomy.

"How can this be? Wei Hu has actually fallen!" Dao Xing Tianzun muttered to himself, his voice full of disbelief.

Following this, his gaze became sharp, and the aura around his body began to become chaotic, with anger and sorrow intertwined.

"Who on earth dared to commit such a poisonous act?"

He immediately closed his eyes to deduce the murderer, but the secrets of Heaven were obscure, so he had to give up.

With a fierce look in his eyes, he gritted his teeth and said.

"No matter who it is, I, Dao Xing Tianzun, will definitely make them pay in blood!"

Afterward, he left the cave, turned into a ray of immortal light, broke through layers of clouds and mist, and headed toward Mount Kunlun.

As soon as he entered the Jade Void Palace.

Dao Xing Tianzun hurriedly knelt down to salute, his voice sorrowful.

"Disciple Dao Xing greets Teacher, I beg Teacher to make the decision for me!"

Yuanshi Tianzun sat high on the auspicious clouds, the power of the Saint flowing, and endless majesty radiated from his body.

Returning from Nuwa's palace, Yuanshi Tianzun had already checked the true spirits on the list and knew Dao Xing Tianzun's intention for coming here.

He opened his eyes slightly and spoke slowly.

"Dao Xing, I already know your intention. Wei Hu was listed not long ago. It seems you still have two disciples under your sect; let one of them be your person to face the calamity."

Yuanshi Tianzun cared about the life and death of the Twelve Golden Immortals; the third-generation disciples were just used to replace the Twelve Golden Immortals to face the calamity, that is, to die for them, so he didn't care much.

The Chan Sect's plan to lay out the Investiture of the Gods had been frustrated repeatedly, and now Wei Hu was listed.

Yuanshi Tianzun thought it was Tongtian's counterattack and frowned slightly.

"It seems the Investiture of the Gods plan must be accelerated." ===== CHAPTER 52 =====
