I was forced to leave the world of immortal cultivation after being transformed into a loser.
Chapter 362: Surprising
The Foguang Temple in the northernmost snowy area of Cangwu Realm is a Buddhist temple. The masters in the temple can see through everything in the world and predict major events in the world.
The Bixia Sect in the central region specializes in magic. Yan Weili, whom Gu Liyue met at the Leng family when she first arrived in Qilin City, was a disciple of Cheng Yuchen, the leader of the Bixia Sect.
In the Baihua Valley in the south, the art of Hehuan is practiced. Different from the traditional furnace and cauldron, it is a method of dual cultivation that can improve the cultivation of both parties.
The Lingyun Sect in the west is full of sword cultivators with extraordinary combat power, but it is the poorest sect.
There is also the Zixiao Sect in the east, which practices alchemy, talismans, and formations. They are the richest and best at doing business, but their combat power is the lowest.
The last one is the newly established sect Xuantian Sect.
These became the six major sects of Cangwu Realm.
The eight major families are: Dongfang of Zhuque City; the Wang family of Qingwu City; the four major families in Qilin City: Leng family, Cheng family, Lin family, and Zhou family; the Bai family of Baiguang City; and the Gan family of Wenyuan City, the city next to Baiguang City.
These were the strongest sects in the Cangwu Realm, and there were also some smaller, weaker sects in the surrounding areas, most of which were dependent on these sects.
The overall strength of the eight great families is not as strong as that of the six major sects.
Hundreds of years ago, cultivators seeking advancement in their cultivation usually sought to become disciples within a sect. However, now that the eight great families have gradually developed and their resources are becoming increasingly better, cultivating within a family can also lead to better progress.
For this five-yearly conference, Gongsun Xun, as the leader of Xuantian Sect, was invited to the Leng family in Qilin City to discuss some matters regarding the conference.
This time he brought Gu Liyue with him. Leng Jiaojiao met them at the gate of the Leng Mansion and led them to the main hall of the Leng family. Leng Jiaojiao said, "The other sect leaders and family heads are already inside. Sect Leader Gongsun, please come in."
Gongsun Xun nodded and said, "Thank you."
He took Gu Liyue into the main hall.
Gu Liyue felt that more than a dozen pairs of eyes were gathered on them in an instant. Gu Liyue first looked towards the main seat, only to see that the person sitting in the main seat was the head of the Leng family, who was looking at her at the moment.
Gu Liyue had met the head of the Leng family several times before because of the founding of the sect and the opening of a store in Qilin City, so she was considered familiar with him.
Gu Liyue stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Master Leng, this is my master, and also the leader of the Xuantian Sect."
Patriarch Leng smiled and said, "I've long admired you. I didn't expect that Sect Master Gongsun is so extraordinary."
Looking at the middle-aged Gongsun Xun's demeanor, he was indeed much younger than the head of the Leng family, and his cultivation was higher than his. When he said this, he actually felt a little sour in his heart.
Gongsun Xun said modestly, "A cultivator doesn't care about appearances. Master Leng, please excuse me."
Gu Liyue thought to herself: When it comes to diplomacy, she admires her master the most. He can always keep a straight face and choke people to death. When people praise him for his youth, he says that he doesn't care about these things. What he cares about is his cultivation, and his cultivation is even higher than others.
The head of the Leng family maintained a smile on his face, but his eyes were a little colder.
"Those seated here are representatives from the six major sects and eight major families in Cangwu Realm. Please introduce yourselves."
Gongsun Xun saw that there was another seat next to him, so he led Gu Liyue to sit down with a smile, and Gu Liyue stood behind him.
He sat in the middle of the left side, and near the main seat were representatives of the six major sects.
The person sitting in the first seat on the left was a Buddhist practitioner, presumably the representative of the Wanfo Temple. He stood up, looked around, and said, "I am Jingxu, a deacon of the Wanfo Temple. I am here to participate in the meeting on behalf of the Wanfo Temple."
Jingxu looked like a young man, wearing a cassock, holding a Buddhist staff, and his head was shaved clean, as if it could glow.
In Gu Liyue's perception, monks should all have compassionate and cold expressions, but Jingxu had a smile on his face, which completely subverted her perception.
Jingxu looked at Gu Liyue and asked, "I wonder what this fairy's name is?"
Gu Liyue said generously, "My name is Gu Liyue."
"So it's Fairy Gu. Looking at your face, I can see your future is limitless!"
"Master, you are too kind." Gu Liyue thought he was just being polite and replied calmly.
The expressions of the other people present changed after hearing this. It was said that the monks of Wanfo Temple could see through the future, and they never told lies. If they did, they would not tell it, and if they did, it would be like a prophecy.
Gongsun Xun glanced at everyone's faces, wondering why Jingxu's words had caused their expressions to change.
A woman sitting opposite said with a sweet laugh, "I think your sister's demeanor is suitable for training in our Hundred Flowers Valley. She will definitely make rapid progress. Hahaha!"
When Gongsun Xun heard about the Hundred Flower Valley, his expression changed. "Fairy, you shouldn't try to steal a disciple from our Xuantian Sect like this. Liyue is our Sect Master's only disciple."
Gu Liyue asked, "I wonder what this senior's name is?"
The woman had a pretty face, skin as white as cream, smiling eyes, and rosy lips. It was obvious that she was well-maintained.
"Don't call me senior. I'm Murong Xu, the master of Baihua Valley."
Gu Liyue just remembered that Xiahou Jingrong had previously introduced to her the situation of the six major sects and eight major families.
When talking about this Valley Master, he said, "This one doesn't like people calling her senior, she likes people calling her sister. And it's said that she looks like a fairy. All male cultivators who see her are fascinated by her."
She was very curious about her appearance at that time, but she didn't expect to see her today. She felt that her face and eyes did not match hers. They were too experienced and she always felt that she was calculating people.
Gu Liyue looked around and it seemed that everyone was very attentive to the Murong Valley Master, except for her master.
Didn’t these people notice Murong Xu’s eyes?
Gu Liyue then bowed and called out, "Valley Master Murong."
At this time, a male cultivator next to Murong Xu sneered and said, "I'm afraid that Fellow Daoist Gu from Xuantian Sect looks down on Baihua Valley."
As soon as Gu Liyue entered the palace, she felt that there was a gaze with malicious intent. It turned out to be this person. She didn't know where this person came from.
She said calmly, "I have joined the Xuantian Sect first, and I have no intention of changing my master. May I know your name?"
"Oh, I'm Xia Qing, a disciple of the Bixia Sect's Sect Master." Then he added, "Three years ago, my senior brother Yan Weili died outside Qilin City. I heard that Fellow Daoist Gu was also in the city at the time. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Gu has any recollection of this incident?"
Gu Liyue understood immediately that the other person suspected that Yan Weili's death was related to her, but not many people knew about this at the time. The fact that this person thought of her showed that he had a lot of imagination, or he was just deceiving her.
Gu Liyue said frankly, "I did meet Senior Brother Ling once, in this very hall. Patriarch Leng was also present. I didn't expect Senior Brother Ling to have passed away. It was quite a surprise."
Xia Qing looked up at Patriarch Leng, who said, "That's true."
Xia Qing didn't know what to say, so he just looked at Gu Liyue unkindly.
