Quick Transmigration: After Fake Death, All the Protagonists I Flirted With Went Crazy
Chapter 361 Betraying One's Master and Ancestor (15)
Yan Ruo's gaze fell on the girl in front of her, with a hint of scrutiny.
For the first time, I truly looked at this person who was the least noticeable among the five peak masters of the Tianqian Sect.
What flashed through his mind were the evaluations of the peak masters of the Tianqian Sect in the cultivation world.
Praise be to Gu Chou, the head of the Tianqian Sect, for his exceptional talent and wisdom.
The peak master of Qingzhu Peak, Gu Yao, is praised as a genius.
Gu Huai, the master of Yangzizhu Peak, glimpsed the secrets of heaven.
The master of Cuizhu Peak, Gu Ce, wielded the sword to help the weak and punish the strong.
However, every time people talk about Gu Mei, the peak master of Jinzhu Peak, they say that she is gentle in nature, but there is nothing that makes her memorable.
At most, it would be a sudden realization: "Oh, you mean the good-natured peak master of the Tianqian Sect?"
Over the years, Gu Mei has always been known as the peacemaker among them, with a good temper and a constant smile.
Looks like he's easy to bully.
Gu Chou was the head of the Tianqian Sect. He was a young man who had already made a name for himself during his travels and was known for his calm and composed nature.
Gu Yao was exceptionally talented; he dared to fight an old monster alone while only at the Nascent Soul stage, breaking the record for genius in the cultivation world for ten thousand years.
Gu Huai was skilled in divination; a single divination could reveal the secrets of heaven. He once saved a sect with a single divination, and became famous overnight.
Gu Ce was a man who hated evil and frequently traveled down the mountain in his youth, helping the weak and punishing the strong, earning him the reputation of being a man of unwavering loyalty and integrity.
Regardless of their later personalities, these individuals were renowned in their youth, except for Gu Mei, who seemed to be overshadowed by her fellow disciples.
Obscurity.
She was also the most approachable of all the peak masters in the Tianqian Sect, and Gu Mei, who was often seen gathering herbs in the back mountains of the Tianqian Sect, would always smile and agree when asked for guidance.
Later, it was even rumored that she was lucky, because she was of the same generation and sect as several other people, which is why she got the position of peak master.
She just laughed it off.
It seems like they never get angry.
In retrospect, it seems the world was blind.
Gu Mei remained neither humble nor arrogant, allowing Yan Ruo to scrutinize her with grace and poise.
She stood tall, like a precious jewel whose dust had been swept away, radiating brilliance.
Yan Ruo withdrew his gaze and waved his hand lightly, "Never mind, I really owe your Tianqian Sect." As he spoke, he beckoned to Gu Chou, signaling him to extend his hand.
Gu Chou couldn't help but take a step back, making it look like he was about to run away.
Gu Mei knows him so well!
In a flash, she appeared behind Gu Chou, placed a hand on his shoulder, and smiled, "Senior brother, where are you going?"
The girl's tone was gentle, but Gu Chou felt a chill run down his spine. He hesitated for 0.01 seconds before putting on a flattering smile. "Isn't this to choose a thank-you gift for Valley Master Yan?"
Gu Mei tilted her head. "Really?"
"Yes."
As if afraid Gu Mei wouldn't believe him, Gu Chou nodded emphatically and stared intently at her with "sincere" eyes.
Gu Mei's smile remained unchanged; she didn't believe Gu Chou's nonsense. With a flick of her finger, a chair landed beside them. She pressed Gu Chou down into the chair, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, "No rush. After Senior Brother finishes his appointment, we'll go together, slowly, slowly, and choose!"
Gu Mei emphasized "together" and "slowly" as she looked at Gu Chou with a kind smile.
Looking into those smiling eyes, which gleamed with cunning, Gu Chou felt his life was over!
Dangerous!
Gu Chou recalled some unpleasant memories.
In the past, he had other fellow disciples to share Gu Mei's schemes, but now he was all alone.
Her feet instinctively tried to move away, but she was firmly pressed into the chair by a seemingly light force on her shoulder.
The girl's soft hand gently rested on the young man's shoulder, and her mid-stage Void Refinement aura remained undiminished, rendering Gu Chou unable to move.
Gu Chou stared in astonishment, turning his head to look, only to meet those calm almond-shaped eyes again.
Gu Mei's expression remained unchanged, completely oblivious to how terrifying what she was doing was.
Receiving the astonished look from her senior brother, she shrugged and said modestly, "Although my cultivation is not as good as Xiao Yao's, it is enough. Senior brother, there is no need to do anything useless. You have to see this patient today, whether you like it or not!"
The girl smiled, her usually calm face revealing an unusual assertiveness that left no room for refusal.
Seeing that the person had calmed down (actually, she was stunned), Gu Mei looked at Yan Ruo in front of her and nodded, "Valley Master Yan, thank you for your trouble."
Yan Ruo watched a great show and felt a little resentful.
What kind of monsters did that old man collect?
From which pit did he pull these apprentices out?
Is divination really that useful if you master it?
Is it too late for him to learn now?
Is it possible to find a genius alchemist to inherit his mantle?
Gu Chou looked at Yan Ruo, rolled up his sleeves, and extended his hand to him, "Valley Master Yan, thank you for your help."
Yan Ruo gave a soft hum, her fingertips touching Gu Chou's wrist, her brows gradually furrowing.
Gu Chou remained calm.
Withdrawing her hand, Yan Ruo looked at Gu Chou with a scrutinizing gaze and a heavy expression. "When did you develop a demonic inner demon?"
Gu Chou flinched, clenched his fist, and shook his head. "I don't quite remember."
I don't know when my inner demons began to grow.
It was probably when he discovered that Xiao Yao was abusing Shen Zhezhu while simultaneously inflicting even more severe punishments on himself.
Or when Xiao Yao was taken away by Shen Zhezhu and there was nothing that could be done.
Or perhaps it was during a divination of the future path of the Heavenly Qian Sect, when a dead end was foreseen.
……
There are too many to remember.
Yan Ruo flicked his sleeve and said, "If you people from the Tianqian Sect want to die, then don't come to me. You've all completely forgotten your master's instructions!"
Gu Mei pursed her lips and asked softly, "Valley Master Yan, what about Senior Brother's inner demons..."
Yan Ruo stood up and interrupted her impatiently, "It's hopeless. Prepare for the worst."
Gu Mei's face turned pale instantly, and her eyes became vacant.
Gu Chou felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. He turned his head and gently patted his junior sister's hand to comfort her. He looked at Yan Ruo with some helplessness and said, "Valley Master Yan, my junior sister is not good at pharmacology. Why do you have to scare her? Just tell me what to do, and I will do it."
Upon hearing this, Gu Mei lowered her eyes, a sly glint in them that Yan Ruo clearly saw.
She sighed inwardly, her gaze towards Gu Chou filled with sympathy.
Being too straightforward is really a disadvantage.
This isn't a lack of understanding of pharmacology; it's obvious that they know a lot about it.
He used all his cunning to scheme against his own senior brother.
Yan Ruo didn't point it out, but took out a bottle of pills from her storage ring and handed it to Gu Chou. "This is a Heart-Clearing Pill, used to help suppress inner demons. It's thanks to your strong will that the inner demons didn't grow stronger."
But inner demons arise from within, and you should overcome this hurdle. I believe your moral character will improve in the process.
"I will go back to Qianjin Valley to refine pills for you, but you still need to figure it out yourself, Junior Nephew."
With that, Yan Ruo sighed and swayed as she walked out. Gu Mei pursed her lips and followed her.
“Valley Master Yan, what do you want? As long as my Tianqian Sect has it, and I, Gu Mei, can do it, I will get it for you.”
Yan Ru snorted, "Do I need your stuff?"
Gu Mei cupped her hands and said respectfully, "Gu Mei knows that you have nothing to lack, this is just a small token of our appreciation."
Yan Ruo looked the girl up and down, becoming more and more satisfied with her.
With such a humble yet confident demeanor and such astonishing talent, he seems like a promising candidate to inherit the mantle of a great man.
Rubbing his hands together, Yan Ru chuckled, picked up his hoe, and began digging at the base of the wall.
"I wonder if the young lady would be interested in becoming the head disciple of my Thousand Gold Valley?"
Gu Mei looked up, her eyes wide, "Huh?"
Yan Ruo smiled broadly, trying hard to appear friendly, but she still looked like a creepy uncle abducting a child.
"Anyway, the Heavenly Qian Sect won't miss you or lose you. I'm really short of a personal disciple. Are you interested?"
Gu Mei was taken aback, took a step back, and bowed respectfully, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, senior."
I'm sorry, I have to decline.
Yan Ruo pursed her lips, a hint of regret on her face, and waved her hand, "Then it's alright, I don't need your little things, young ones."
Watching Yan Ruo's retreating figure, Gu Mei pursed her lips, stepped forward, and bowed respectfully, "If you don't mind, Senior, once the Tianqian Sect has overcome this calamity, I will naturally visit you at Qianjin Valley."
A hint of surprise flashed in Yan Ruo's eyes, but she tried hard to suppress the smile on her lips. "Then it's settled. There's no need to see me off anymore."
Saying it's a visit is just a way of asking for advice.
Once you learn his skills, you become his apprentice.
That old devil really got off easy; he died young, and now his apprentice has to share half with him.
The old man turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared on the stone steps.
Gu Mei watched him leave, then turned and walked towards the main hall.
--small theater--
Gu Chou: I feel like a clown.
My junior brothers and sisters all kept their talents hidden, making me feel like a useless person in comparison (looking weary while lighting a cigarette.jpg)
Gu Ce: I'm the biggest clown, aren't I? I know nothing. They all think they're so great just because they can tell fortunes? A bunch of charlatans.
**** (cursing and swearing)
Gu Ce was kicked out of the live stream for using overly offensive language.
Yan Ruo: I've had my fill of this gossip today.
Oh, and I even got half an apprentice for free (I'm very satisfied).
An old friend: Does anyone still remember me? Will I ever be able to finish this game of chess?
Gu Mei: The three-year period is up. It's time to let you know my true identity. (not really)
