I have been bound in a forbidden place for five hundred years. Why are you crying when I am a casual

Qingxuan Holy Land, inside the sect's main hall.

The atmosphere was depressing to the extreme.

"Master! All the Immortal Cranes on Zhuofeng died today. It was Gu Xiu who deliberately mixed the Bone-Dissolving Powder into them. I saw it with my own eyes and can testify to this!"

"Master, I have also checked. Those fairy cranes were indeed killed by the Bone-Dissolving Powder. I also found a bottle of Bone-Dissolving Powder in Gu Xiu's residence."

The accusatory voice in his ear brought Gu Xiu back to his senses, having just been distracted.

"Gu Xiu, tell me, is what they said true?"

A beautiful woman wearing a phoenix robe and with graceful manners was sitting on the sect leader's seat, looking at Gu Xiu with a serious face.

"Just now, I... entered a fantasy world? A dream that lasted ten thousand years?"

Gu Xiu muttered to himself, looking at everything around him that seemed familiar yet unfamiliar, his eyes full of horror.

Just now.

He was in the sect's main hall, arguing about whether he had poisoned the fairy crane to death.

But he was suddenly dragged into an illusion.

In that fantasy world, he became a bystander and watched his entire life...

"Gu Xiu, now that we've caught you red-handed, what else do you have to argue about? You must feel that the sect's order to feed spirit beasts is an insult to you, and you're deliberately venting your anger this way, right? Master, I've said before that Gu Xiu has no right to stay in Zhuo Peak, let alone feed spirit beasts!"

Junior Senior Sister Lu Qingyao started to curse, while Third Senior Sister Xu Wanqing beside her also shook her head:

"Gu Xiu, over five hundred years ago, you were considered upright, but I never imagined you would become like this. Since you don't want to stay at Zhuo Peak and feed the spirit beasts, just say so directly. Why resort to such extreme measures?"

"I thought that in the past five hundred years, you had only lost your cultivation and your bones, but I never thought that you had even lost your original Dao heart!"

These two people are Gu Xiu’s senior sisters.

Junior sister Lu Qingyao is a well-known beast tamer, and third sister Xu Wanqing is the chief alchemist of Qingxuan Holy Land.

As for the position of the patriarch...

He is Gu Xiu's master, the Mahayana supreme being, the leader of Qingxuan Holy Land, Guan Xuelan, who has a cold personality and is serious.

The three people's gazes at this moment were surprisingly consistent.

disgust!

When he looked at Gu Xiu, it seemed as if he was not looking at the sect's hero who had bound himself in a forbidden area for five hundred years for the sake of the sect, and ultimately destroyed his cultivation and bones.

But looking at a...

He should die immediately and not be contaminated by the sect's immortal energy.

These gazes made Gu Xiu, who had been accustomed to them for the past three years, involuntarily think again of the things he had seen in the illusion just now.

The outside world is just a moment.

But the world in the illusion lasted for tens of thousands of years.

In the illusion, Gu Xiu became a bystander, or a listener, and saw all the stories that happened in this world over the past ten thousand years.

What is happening at this moment is just a tiny part of that story.

The death of Xianlinghe was actually caused by the poisoning of the third senior sister in front of him, with the assistance of the younger senior sister.

And the purpose of the two.

They wanted to drive themselves out of Zhuofeng's residence, because they wanted to use that place to build an animal pen for their junior brother Jiang Xun to practice the art of taming beasts.

As a direct disciple of the Qingxuan Holy Land, he certainly cannot directly seize the residence of other direct disciples.

At least, there needs to be a legitimate reason.

As for whether this excuse is lame or not, and whether the victim will accept it...

None of it matters.

After all, Gu Xiu's cultivation was completely wasted, and he was a useless person who was unable to resist.

According to the subsequent developments in the illusion.

Gu Xiu would naturally not admit to this accusation, but would try every possible means to find evidence to prove himself.

But I didn't expect it.

When he finally found the evidence after much difficulty and showed it to his master Guan Xuelan, wanting to prove his innocence, he discovered.

His master Guan Xuelan had actually already seen through the truth!

Even Third Senior Sister Xu Wanqing's poisoning of the Fairy Crane was instructed by Guan Xuelan!

She is the mastermind behind all this!

These affairs afterward.

Although Gu Xiu saw it all in that illusion that lasted for ten thousand years, he still understood Guan Xuelan's indifferent look at this moment.

That's probably not an illusion!

But real!

Really, it makes people feel sad...

"Master, Gu Xiu has always been in charge of raising spirit beasts. According to the sect's rules, if something happens to a spirit beast, it is his responsibility. Not to mention that he took the initiative to poison the spirit beast. He must be severely punished!"

Junior Sister Lu Qingyao said this righteously at this moment.

Master Guan Xuelan frowned, "Gu Xiu, you have made great contributions to the sect. If you tell the truth, I will not punish you excessively."

This time, Gu Xiu remained silent.

"Gu Xiu..."

Guan Xuelan was about to say something else when she saw Gu Xiu suddenly look up:

"It's the disciple's fault."

"Oh?" Guan Xuelan was stunned. She didn't expect Gu Xiu to agree so readily, but she nodded anyway.

"Then tell me, why did you poison the fairy crane?"

"Disciple did not poison the Immortal Crane."

"You changed your mind again?"

"I'm not changing my words." Gu Xiu shook his head and said calmly, "I have always been responsible for feeding the immortal birds. This time the immortal crane was poisoned, so I am indeed guilty of dereliction of duty."

As soon as these words came out, Guan Xuelan seemed to be teased and instantly became furious:

"You dare to play tricks on me? Since you are so stubborn, you will be punished in the water dungeon!"

"I will punish you with seven days of water dungeon torture!"

"At the same time, you must immediately move out of Zhuofeng. You are not allowed to live here anymore, and you are not allowed to get close to any spirit beasts!"

These words made Xu Wanqing and Lu Qingyao beside them smile with relief.

Gu Xiu glanced at them.

In the end, he said nothing, just withdrew his gaze, turned around and walked out of the sect hall.

In his heart.

There is no grievance of being wronged, and even no resentment of being slandered.

He just thought it was a little ridiculous.

Because I have been carefully protecting the sect and treating my master and senior sisters with care over the past few years.

Feels ridiculous.

He was an orphan picked up by the previous leader of Qingxuan Sect. After he first arrived at Qingxuan Sect, the old leader handed the young boy over to Guan Xuelan for care.

That was the happiest time of his life.

He became the apprentice of Guan Xuelan, the successor to the sect leader. His master loved and cared for him, and his seven senior sisters also doted on him.

At that time, Gu Xiu was a child of destiny and the hope of the sect.

But five hundred years ago, the forbidden land of Fuyuan appeared in the world. The Qingxuan Sect was on the verge of destruction. Someone was needed to represent the sect to enter it and endure the torture of the forbidden land for five hundred years in order to fight for the tremendous blessing source for the sect!

As the sect’s holy son, Gu Xiu stepped forward.

He sacrificed himself and bound himself into the forbidden area alone.

For five hundred years, Gu Xiu suffered inhuman torture. In order to seize the blessing source for the sect, he always gritted his teeth and persevered.

Eventually, he succeeded.

All the luck and fortune were snatched away by Gu Xiu, and in just five hundred years, Xuantian Sect was transformed from a third-rate sect to a first-rate holy land.

But Gu Xiu paid a huge price.

Five hundred years of war and killing had left him with countless wounds, and his soul was nearly completely shattered, although he barely managed to keep his life.

But all his cultivation was gone, his bones and aptitude were destroyed, and he even suffered from Dao injuries, which often caused him unbearable pain and suffering.

all of these.

In Gu Xiu's opinion at the time, it was all worth it.

Because this is his sect, and there are people here that he cares about.

but……

Five hundred years passed in the blink of an eye.

In five hundred years, the world has also changed dramatically.

The Qingxuan Sect became the Qingxuan Holy Land, Guan Xuelan became the Supreme Xuelan, and even his senior sisters gained a lot of reputation in the fields of alchemy, talismans, weapons, etc.

Everything has changed.

When Gu Xiu returned, the flowers and applause he had imagined did not arrive. Instead, he was greeted with only one sentence:

"Gu Xiu, your Dantian Qi Sea has been completely destroyed. Your aptitude and bones have been completely abolished. It is impossible for you to practice anymore. We have given the position of Holy Son to someone else."

"He is your junior fellow apprentice Jiang Xun. His cultivation isn't very high yet, but his aptitude is not inferior to your former self. He even has the potential to be a master in the Six Paths. He can become your second you and lead the Qingxuan Holy Land to a higher level."

"In the future, you can live in the sect with peace of mind. Don't worry, the sect will take care of you until the end of your life."

These words made Gu Xiu feel very uncomfortable at the time.

It’s not that I feel uncomfortable with the attitude of my master and senior sisters, but I feel uncomfortable that I can no longer contribute to the sect.

But at that time, he would never have thought of it.

he himself.

He became the most unnecessary burden in the sect.

Except for the time when everyone was still polite to him just after his return, it didn't take long for him to become an idler who was ignored by everyone and hated by everyone.

This is sad enough.

But from the future I just glimpsed in the illusion, it seems that I will be even more miserable...

even.

Even though he was in such a situation, he still sacrificed his life for the sect.

The funny thing is.

He sacrificed his life for the sect, but no one in the sect mourned for him. Instead, they turned around and cheered for their junior brother Jiang Xun's breakthrough.

nobody.

Even if I shed a tear for him...

Until that junior brother showed his fangs and turned against us, the Qingxuan Holy Land was completely destroyed and no one came to rescue us.

They finally regretted it.

but……

What's the use?

"If that illusion is the future, then when I think about it, my life is truly pathetic."

Shaking his head, Gu Xiu sorted out his thoughts:

"If it weren't for this dream, perhaps I would have really set foot on the road to death as planned in the illusion."

"But now that I have gained a glimpse of the secrets of heaven."

"Then I must not repeat the same mistakes again."

"As for this sect..."

"It's better not to wait!"

Gu Xiu used to be a foolishly loyal person, but now he has an epiphany and wants to change everything.

If that glance ten thousand years ago was from the previous life.

That this life.

You won’t have to live for this Qingxuan Holy Land anymore.

He wants to live for himself!

Thinking of this, Gu Xiu quickly headed towards his residence.

If you want to live for yourself, the first thing you need to do is to leave the Qingxuan Holy Land!

Before leaving Qingxuan Holy Land, he still had two things to retrieve.

Both.

Your own opportunity!

Gu Xiu ran all the way back and met many disciples from Qingxuan Holy Land on the way. However, when all the disciples saw Gu Xiu, they chose to ignore him and pretended not to see him.

This is the norm.

According to seniority, he is considered the uncle, but it is obvious that these inner disciples who have at least established their foundation are not willing to call a mortal whose cultivation has been abolished and who is not close to their master and sisters uncle.

Gu Xiu didn't care.

At this moment, he was only thinking about his two treasures.

One in particular.

Because, if the time in the illusion were followed, such a treasure of mine would be taken away by someone else today.

He wants to keep his chance!

After running all the way, Gu Xiu finally arrived at Zhuo Feng's residence. However, as soon as he arrived at the door, Gu Xiu couldn't help but frowning.

Although he had already run back with all his strength.

But the opportunity he had was now in the hands of someone else.

The person who had taken his chance also noticed Gu Xiu rushing back, and a worried look suddenly appeared on his face:

"Brother, are you okay?"

"I heard that you were punished by the master. I was very worried and came to see you specially."

This man was dressed in a green robe and had a handsome face. Although his cultivation was not very high at the moment, he seemed to have a natural Taoist aura just standing there.

He is no one else.

It was Gu Xiu's junior brother who was extremely secretive and had a deep mind.

Jiang Xun!
