In the Shenshui Realm, Gu Ning showed the token given by Li Guzi to the guarding disciple, "I am here to interrogate Zhou Wentian."

Meng Jia, Ye Xiaoshu and Ye Shuming were sent by Gu Ning to interrogate Luo Zhi.

She thought that Luo Zhi was not a honest guy and that he had not been beaten enough.

And she vaguely felt that Luo Zhi was not afraid of her for some reason... Thinking of this, Gu Ning felt quite sad.

Am I not ferocious enough?

The three of them... at least they wouldn't be beaten to death by the fake Luo Yong. In the water dungeon, Li Guzi personally added a restriction to the fake Luo Yong...

"Go in." His thoughts were pulled back, and the gatekeeper disciple opened the restriction of the Shenshui Realm in a businesslike manner. When Gu Ning's figure disappeared from his sight, his eyes quietly lit up.

Is there any turn for the better for Senior Brother Zhou?

As he stepped into the submerged water realm, Gu Ning was instantly bent over.

"Oh, this place is quite interesting." After he finished speaking, Gu Ning shrugged his shoulders, stood up straight while his spiritual energy flowed, and strode forward.

All around, the water ripples are flowing, blue water patterns are spreading out in circles, and you can even see pink little fish swimming freely in the water and red water plants swaying left and right at the bottom of the water.

The little fish quietly spit out a few bubbles, and ran away quickly the moment Gu Ning stretched out his hand.

I have to say, this place is really beautiful, a bit like an underwater world.

Gu Ning was thinking, and the next moment, a big iron chain appeared in front of Gu Ning.

At this moment...the dream of the underwater world collapsed.

Gu Ning stopped and looked at the person in front of him. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief and looked again.

The man in front of him was incredibly pale and thin, with a huge iron chain locking him tightly. The powerful pressure from the Shenshui Realm forced him to his knees on the ground without any explanation.

His body was covered with bloodstains and scars, and his white robe was stained with blood, like the red spider lilies blooming on both sides of the underworld, revealing a hint of death.

That face... was still too beautiful, with white silk covering his eyes. He looked up at the empty water, which added to his stubborn and fragile beauty, causing Gu Ning's heart to tremble violently.

"Who are you?" After a long time, a weak and clear voice interrupted Gu Ning's shock and astonishment.

Zhou Wentian turned to Gu Ning and smiled gently, "Say it a thousand times, ten thousand times, I will give the same answer."

He paused, a hint of sarcasm flashed across his face, "I didn't kill anyone!"

As determined as to join the party...

Gu Ning's heart trembled again. The beauty was in trouble, but she was unyielding and stubborn...

Ah, what kind of bloody fairy tale is this...

"Ahem..." Gu Ning shook off the thought that shouldn't have appeared in his mind and coughed lightly, "Um... I'm Gu Ning, do you still remember me?"

In an instant, the mockery on Zhou Wentian's face froze, and his whole body stiffened as well, with an expression of disbelief and hesitation on his face.

"Gu Ning..." After a long while, he let out a long, gentle breath, "You're really here."

As soon as the words fell, it was like the ice and snow melting in spring. The ice and snow on the beauty's face suddenly melted away, and a weak but joyful smile bloomed on her.

Gu Ning couldn't help but smile, "Speaking of which, Miss Zhou, how come you've ended up like this after not seeing you for more than half a year?"

It was still the familiar formula, and the familiar venomous tongue. Zhou Wentian relaxed even more and laughed at himself.

"It's hard to put it into words. It's hard to put it into words."

"It doesn't matter. If it's too hard to explain in one sentence, then just say more. I have plenty of time and energy." Gu Ning walked forward and sat cross-legged opposite Zhou Wentian. "You sit down too. Let's talk slowly."

Zhou Wentian sat down with difficulty. Strangely, such a small action made the inexplicable feeling of humiliation in his heart disappear instantly.

The two seemed to be sitting in a place with blooming birds and fragrant flowers in spring, laughing and talking about life.

***

Time goes back to half a year ago, when Zhou Wentian came out of seclusion in the mountains. The surging spiritual energy around his body attracted the attention of everyone in the Shenshui Sect.

In just over half a year, he went from the early stage of the Golden Elixir to the great perfection of the Golden Elixir, and was only one step away from forming a Nascent Soul. Such a rare genius is rarely seen in the world of immortal cultivation once in a thousand years.

As a result, the entire Chenshui Sect was shocked. At the same time, all the elders of the Chenshui Sect who had originally had complaints about Li Guzi shut their mouths. Under Zhou Wentian's absolute excellence, no one could express any objection to the allocation of resources.

It can be said that Li Guzi’s position as the head of the sect is inseparable from Zhou Wentian’s crazy improvement in spiritual power; similarly, Zhou Wentian’s substantial advancement is also inseparable from Li Guzi’s strong support.

Geniuses are rare, but cultivating one also requires enormous wealth and resources.

However, increasing spiritual power too quickly is not a good thing.

After he returned from Mingyue Sect, he had been practicing in seclusion. He had not fought, so his spiritual energy was restless. He had not communicated, so his mind was unstable.

Just as Zhou Wentian was preparing to leave the sect for training, Luo Yong made a suggestion at the sect meeting.

“Since Wentian is the living signboard of our sect, why don’t we let everyone see what a living signboard looks like?” Luo Yong looked at Zhou Wentian with gentle eyes, like a smiling tiger. “Wentian, you also know that all the resources of our Chenshui Sect have been invested in you. The rest of the brothers and sisters are still crying out for food.”

Zhou Wentian stood in the hall with a cold face, "When the sect competition comes, I will definitely win the first place. At that time, all the resources won will be given to the sect for disposal."

"How can distant water quench immediate thirst?" Luo Yong curled his lips, "What's more, there are team competitions in the sect competition, and you can't decide the absolute victory or defeat by yourself."

"Yes, yes, our disciples are all practicing hard, but unfortunately there is no resource support, so their advancement speed is too slow."

"Yes, we can't just focus on one person. What if there is a more outstanding talent? Team competition is also important."

"That's right. I heard that the new disciple Gu Ning from Mingyue Sect, Gu Rou from Qingyun Sect, and Fan Sisi from Fusheng Sect, all have top-grade single spiritual roots... I've heard that they advance very quickly..."

……

What you said hit the mark, and what I said hit the mark. Zhou Wentian's face became increasingly cold, and the Liuguang Sword in his hand began to tremble uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Li Guzi coughed lightly, looked at Luo Yong, and had to ask, "So, what do you mean?"

Luo Yong smiled with satisfaction, "It's nothing, just to promote it within our Shenshui Sect, and to build momentum for Wentian."

He walked up to Zhou Wentian and patted him on the shoulder affectionately, "You are the living signboard of our Shenshui Sect. You only need to sit in front of the Shenshui Sect and all kinds of immortal cultivation reporters will come here..."

He smiled brightly, "How about we charge one thousand high-quality spirit stones per person and only allow two hundred people to see you every day?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Wentian's face instantly turned pale, and he snorted coldly, "Elder Luo, do you take me for an opera singer?"

Humiliating... There is no such thing as humiliating...

What's more, the sect's direct teachings... have always been the sect's treasure and the sect's secret weapon... Many reporters from immortal cultivation tabloids have obtained scraps of information about the direct teachings through various channels, and all of them will be headlines.

If you pay money, you can receive personal instruction...all the immortal practitioners will flock to it!

But... Chenshui Sect doesn't care. They only care about the benefits Zhou Wentian can bring to them. So when Luo Yong made the proposal, everyone in the hall breathed a little faster.

Why didn't they think of that?

Only Li Guzi's face looked unusually gloomy, while Zhou Wentian's face looked pale and cruel like a lone wolf.

But... the arm has always been unable to twist the thigh, let alone their Chenshui Sect, a sect with a divided mind.
