I’m happy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xin knew Zhu Wushi had something on his mind, but with others present, she could not speak of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Su Xin, your recovery is a tremendous blessing!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Wushi set aside his distractions and looked at Su Xin with sincere eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xin’s heart trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Wushi is a good man, and she could not let go of Gu Santong either—she simply could not choose between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Su Xin, would you like to go to the Imperial Prison and bring Gu Santong the good news?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing suddenly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iron Palm Divine Marquis immediately flew into rage, fixing Gu Qing with a stern gaze. “Gu Qing, Gu Santong is a prisoner—he must spend his life locked in the Imperial Prison. You’ve visited him repeatedly, violating Great Ming law. I hope you won’t compound your error!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing, who wields the Golden Body Invulnerability Art, is formidable—even Cao Zhengchun, his enemy, has been crushed beneath his fists—but in this world, power and backing matter. Gu Qing’s strength alone is utterly useless!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Santong was also a formidable fighter back then!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Speaking of Gu Santong, when I spoke with him in the Imperial Prison, he said that when he arrived at Taihu Lake, all the Four Famous Captains and one hundred and seven martial artists were already dead—he merely arrived at the right moment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing stroked his chin, assuming a detective’s pose. “Just like when I went to the Water Moon Nunnery with Yi Dao—we arrived, and Le Kong, Jian Jingfeng, and Lu Huanong were already dead. We were merely there at the right time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the room, besides Gu Qing, Su Xin, and Zhu Wushi, there were Duan Tianya, Hai Tang, Guihai Yidao, and the Liu Sheng sisters. Upon hearing Gu Qing’s theory, all of them were startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So I wonder—if I’ve been wrongfully accused, could Gu Santong have been too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nonsense! Impossible!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Wushi said coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Capturing Gu Santong was the key to Zhu Wushi becoming Iron Palm Divine Marquis and establishing the Protecting Dragon Manor. If this case were overturned, Zhu Wushi would be ruined—everything would collapse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I also think it’s unlikely.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing smiled. “But for safety’s sake, I’ve informed His Majesty and asked him to investigate thoroughly. Little Zhu, I heard you and Gu Santong were close brothers—if this misunderstanding could truly be cleared, wouldn’t that be good for you too?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Good?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Good riddance!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Wushi suppressed his fury, swept his sleeve, turned away, and said coldly: “Great Master Gu, you’ve protected Su Xin since she emerged from the Heavenly Pool. Now that she’s awake, I believe you may leave.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Wushi had endured for years, waiting for an opportunity—he needed to prove himself—but now, before he could seize it, Gu Qing was suffocating him. Zhu Wushi reacted violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he could match Gu Qing’s strength, Zhu Wushi would have fought him outright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I broke out of the Eastern Depot. Do you think I can’t break out of the Protecting Dragon Manor?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing asked calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Wushi had no reply. He held power and influence, but Gu Qing was simply too strong. Even if you’re wrong, can’t I just step back?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhu Wushi gave up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Su Xin, let’s go!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing took Su Xin’s hand. The Liu sisters immediately followed him out. Duan Tianya and Shangguan Hai Tang remained silent. Guihai Yidao glanced at Iron Palm Divine Marquis, silently weighing him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Iron Palm Divine Marquis walked heavily to his throne, turned, sat down, and sat like a wooden statue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ninth level of the Imperial Prison.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Gu Qing arrived, another young man in a yellow imperial robe was speaking quietly with Gu Santong. Hearing their approach, the young man turned and greeted Gu Qing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Great Master Gu, I am Yun Luo’s brother.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man smiled brightly as he spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Luo’s brother was naturally the current Emperor. Cheng Feishi, who had followed Gu Qing, stared intently at the Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well? Shall we reopen the case?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing asked with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emperor frowned slightly. Since ascending the throne, he had sensed Iron Palm Divine Marquis as a threat, so he balanced him against Cao Zhengchun. Removing both would mean the Emperor’s absolute control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Between you and my uncle, who is stronger?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emperor asked seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve never lost to my uncle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing said: “As for why I fight him—it’s just me doing good deeds.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doing good deeds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emperor understood. He established a means of contact with Gu Qing, then decided to consolidate all imperial intelligence before making a final judgment. This matter was too grave to be taken lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the Emperor left, Gu Qing approached Gu Santong and smiled. “Gu Santong, your wife and son have come. Your savior has arrived too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recently, Gu Santong’s living conditions in the prison had improved—he no longer needed to use the Absorbing Power Art to suck in spiders for food. His face no longer bore the marks of hardship; his white hair gleamed. Hearing Gu Qing’s words, he studied Su Xin and Cheng Feishi, then beckoned them closer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The family reunited, and they had much to say. After exchanging a few words, Gu Santong found Gu Qing an eyesore. He looked at Gu Qing and said: “The Heavenly Pool Eccentric left two legacies: the invincible Golden Body Invulnerability Art, and the Absorbing Power Art. Together, they complement and counterbalance each other. Whoever masters both can absorb any martial art in the world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ve done me great kindness. I’ve already given you the Golden Body Invulnerability Art. Now, I’ll teach you the Absorbing Power Art.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, Gu Santong recited the secrets of the Absorbing Power Art. He had deceived gods and demons all his life, but for Gu Qing—who saved Su Xin and brought back Cheng Feishi—he had no intention of deceit. He revealed every detail clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing listened, then silently activated his inner energy. A faint purple glow began to form in his palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Absorbing Power Art could not only drain energy from afar—it could also control objects at a distance. It was among the supreme techniques in the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You may go up now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After transmitting the secrets, Gu Santong wanted Gu Qing to leave so the family could be together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not yet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing stood still. “Cheng Feishi is newly cultivating the Turtle Qi Art—he’s still unskilled. I must supervise him while he treats you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Qing must forcefully observe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cheng Feishi: “...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Santong: “...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1215,"2026-06-20T17:04:27.745Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","77b5d6267032b8e22b236127b41345707d4c3719ee1ebbfe8376ab563a33878b","living-among-all-heavens-achieving-immortality-t-chapter-267","living-among-all-heavens-achieving-immortality-t-chapter-265",449,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fliving-among-all-heavens-achieving-immortality-t-cover.jpg"]
