Chapter 405: Divine Intervention
Chapter 405: Divine Intervention
Outside Mystery Valley, Jiang Qiong looked at Gu An and said sincerely, "I'm about to leave. Thank you for your help."
In the nearby forest, several Flower-Gathering Sect disciples were recuperating, waiting for Jiang Qiong.
Gu An waved his hand and said, "If you want to thank someone, thank Ji Xiaoyu."
Jiang Qiong knew Ji Xiaoyu, and she also knew that this Ji Xiaoyu was not the one she was familiar with.
Instead of thinking about Ji Xiaoyu, she thought about the Dao Support Sword Lord's words. She asked softly, "You've been helping me behind the scenes for so long, why didn't you ever say anything?"
Gu An understood what she meant. He blinked and said, "What if I did? Would it make you more grateful towards me? That's boring. You should focus on developing the Flower-Gathering Sect. Life is long, and I hope that thousands of years from now, we can still drink and chat."
Hearing this, Jiang Qiong smiled and said, "Then you'll have to live for thousands of years."
"I'll do my best."
After hearing Gu An's words, Jiang Qiong smiled and turned to leave.
Gu An watched her leave without any lingering melancholy, because he knew that he and Jiang Qiong would have many more opportunities to meet, and the Flower-Gathering Sect was not far in his eyes.
Some distances are not measured by steps, but by the rolling mortal world pushing one's fate.
Even if some people will live on, there will be moments when Gu An feels that this farewell is eternal.
After Jiang Qiong and the others left on their swords, Gu An stretched lazily.
"I still have to face a new life. If I feel down at just seven hundred years old, what will I do when I reach a million, ten million, or even a hundred million years old?"
Gu An thought to himself silently, and a smile appeared on his face.
Birth, aging, sickness, and death cannot be stopped, so why bother clinging to them?
Cherishing the bonds of a lifetime is enough!
Gu An turned and walked towards the interior of Mystery Valley, thinking of Xiao Chuan at the same time.
Why hasn't this stinky kid reincarnated yet?
For others, Gu An only needs the bond of a lifetime, but for Xiao Chuan, he is more greedy!
...
Five years later.
In a courtyard within the Flower-Gathering Sect.
Jiang Qiong and the Camellia Ghost Mother sat facing each other. After listening to the Ghost Mother's words, Jiang Qiong's expression was strange, and she asked, "Are you sure it was five years ago?"
"Yes, that night was very quiet. No one came to look for me until dawn, so I went out to take a look. I found that all the disciples of the Soul-Binding Demon Palace were dead, and their deaths were very mysterious. There were no signs of battle, as if their souls had been extracted. Not a single demon disciple was left alive, but those of us who were imprisoned were still alive."
As the Ghost Mother recalled those scenes, she couldn't hide the fear on her face.
Jiang Qiong was secretly shocked. She knew that the Dao Support Sword Lord was powerful, but from the Ghost Mother's description, he was still very frightening.
Jiang Qiong took a deep breath and spoke about her request for the Dao Support Sword Lord's assistance.
After listening, the Ghost Mother relaxed and her face showed a fervent expression. She said, "The best decision I've made in my life is to rely on the Dao Support Sword Lord."
Jiang Qiong looked at her and thought to herself, "You will regret it."
This time, by asking for the Dao Support Sword Lord's help, she considered it a repayment for the Ghost Mother's assistance over the years.
However, the Ghost Mother was hated by Zhen Qin, and in terms of their relationship, Zhen Qin was considered the Dao Support Sword Lord's great-granddaughter. No matter how one looked at it, the Ghost Mother would eventually face a deadly tribulation.
The Dao Support Sword Lord clearly didn't care about the Ghost Mother.
"The destruction of the Soul-Binding Demon Palace is also an opportunity for us. I found many good things there that can help the Flower-Gathering Sect soar!" The Ghost Mother suddenly became excited.
Jiang Qiong's eyes lit up, and the two began discussing taking over the Soul-Binding Demon Palace.
...
In the Holy Court, the golden and jade grand hall, the Holy Minister sat on his throne, listening to the reports of the officials in the hall.
(End of Chapter)Behind him, the Holy Heaven's throne emitted a faint golden light, as if there was a human figure seated upon it.
"Our control over the world is shrinking, and even within our grasp, we see the repeated destruction of sects and dynasties. We are unable to uncover the truth behind these events." An elder spoke with a weary tone.
The Holy Minister spoke up, "In these extraordinary times, there's no need to use force to investigate. The Holy Court's target is the Immortal Dynasty. By destroying it, we can easily regain control of the world. Let the people experience the darkness of a world without the Holy Court's protection. We've held power for too long, and those born in peace don't understand the horrors of the dark ages."
H
The hearts of the people were leaning towards the Immortal Dynasty!
A man clad in battle armor stepped forward and said, "The urgent task at hand is to cultivate a Freedom Immortal. Holy Minister, gather the strength of the entire court and aid you in soaring to new heights of cultivation!"
As soon as these words were spoken, many echoed in agreement, even pleading with the Holy Minister.
The Holy Minister had already reached the ninth layer of the Divine Mind True Immortal Realm, just one step away from the Freedom Immortal Realm.
"Why the Holy Minister and not the Holy Deity?" someone questioned, causing the Grand Hall to fall into silence.
The Holy Minister glanced at him without anger and asked, "Does anyone else have a different opinion?"
The Holy Court cultivators in the Grand Hall looked at each other, and no one dared to speak up.
A thunderous boom!
A heavenly thunderbolt struck from the sky, hitting the person who had just objected, instantly turning him into ashes.
The Holy Minister stood up and said, "Since you all wish for me to achieve the Freedom Immortal Realm, let's prepare a plan. I will gather the Mystic Cloud of the Holy Court to prove my path to the Freedom Immortal Realm. Let the people of the Holy Court witness my tribulation process and gain some knowledge!"
Many in the Grand Hall had their faces turn ugly. Even if they feared the Holy Minister, they couldn't help but feel anger seeing him casually executing a court official. In the end, with someone taking the lead, everyone began to thank the Holy Minister on behalf of the people of the Holy Court.
The Holy Minister looked up, and the sky above revealed a starry scene.
"That guy should be returning soon. When he does, it will be my chance to break through. Let the people witness the power of the divine," the Holy Minister muttered to himself.
On the other side, in the Mystery Valley of the Taixuan Sect.
Gu An was reading in the forest while An Xin sat nearby cultivating. Not far away, Jiang Shi closely watched An Shengtian practicing with a sword.
"Why choose a sword? It doesn't seem powerful enough," An Xin muttered, her gaze shifting to Gu An.
Gu An turned a page and said, "Everyone has their own choices; let him be."
"Master, what weapon do you think suits me?"
"Aren't you practicing the sword?"
"I feel like the sword isn't right for me. I prefer a divine tool like the pen in your hand; it's more innovative."
"Then take your time and think about it. Don't ask me about this."
Gu An brushed her off and stood up, placing the Green Hero Chronicles in his embrace.
An Xin followed and said with a hint of resentment, "How can I possibly know? I've been following your guidance in cultivation. Please help me think about it."
Gu An didn't respond but looked up at the sky.
The sky was a deep blue, and a white beam of light swiftly streaked across, disappearing in an instant.
"Another one has come. It seems like things will get even more chaotic later," Gu An thought to himself.
That white beam of light was none other than a Freedom Immortal!
