"It's you!"
When Gu Wei was seen, the faces of the people from Spirit Mountain changed drastically.
The number of times their faces changed today was more than all their previous times combined.
"City Lord Gu... City Lord Gu, may I ask what brings you here?"
When Ancestor Spirit saw Gu Wei, even his tone trembled.
He considered himself the strongest on Yelan Star, but of course, that didn't include Gu Wei.
Three thousand years ago, she had already broken through the shackles of the Great Sage and become a Unity Realm cultivator. Now, three thousand years have passed, and who knows what level her cultivation has reached?
"What brings me here?"
Gu Wei's face was indifferent, and her gaze was indifferent. "Spirit Mountain is quite bold, thinking of making all the forces behind everyone present submit. Xiang'er is here, so does my Gu family also have to submit?"
"Of course, I can treat this as a slip of the tongue by this idiot."
Gu Wei glanced coldly at the Spirit Mountain Sect Master. The Spirit Mountain Sect Master was struck by lightning, and his body exploded into a cloud of blood with a "bang".
Ancestor Spirit Mountain's eyes widened suddenly. He wanted to speak, but he didn't dare. The elders behind him were trembling with fear.
"Even if it's a slip of the tongue, there needs to be a price to pay." Gu Wei's voice revealed a coldness that made the people of Spirit Mountain feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
But in the next moment, Gu Wei turned her eyes to Ancestor Spirit Mountain.
"Ancestor Spirit Mountain, did you want to represent my Gu family just now?" she asked.
Ancestor Spirit Mountain's face shook, and he quickly said, "Misunderstanding, I never had such thoughts."
"No thoughts? What did you mean when you gave Xiang'er a second choice? Is it up to you whether my Gu family will let Xiang'er continue to be the president of the Yelan Star Chamber of Commerce? Or are you able to make decisions for my Gu family?"
"Plop!"
Ancestor Spirit Mountain knelt down instantly. "City Lord Gu, I was just being quick-tongued for a moment and didn't mean that at all. Please, City Lord Gu, investigate carefully."
"Tsk!"
Gu Wei's face became even colder. She said, "Are you saying that I misinterpreted your meaning?"
"..."
Ancestor Spirit Mountain didn't dare to speak. He looked up at Gu Wei and said, "City Lord Gu, why are you being so aggressive? I'll release the person."
"Too late!"
Gu Wei snorted coldly, "My sister Xiang'er gave you a chance before, but you didn't cherish it. You insisted on bullying my sister, who is a non-Gu family elder without the Gu surname. Very well, today I will announce in front of all the forces of Yelan Star that I, Gu Wei, in the capacity of the Goddess of the Gu family, bestow the Gu surname to Luo Xiang'er."
As soon as these words came out, including Luo Xiang'er, their faces were filled with disbelief.
Gu Wei turned to look at Luo Xiang'er and asked, "Xiang'er, are you willing to change your surname to Gu?"
"Sister is willing!" Luo Xiang'er, or rather, Gu Xiang'er, was about to kneel down to Gu Wei, but was stopped by Gu Wei.
"My Gu family doesn't practice kneeling except on some special days."
Gu Wei remembered that the last time they performed the kneeling ceremony was when the ancestor grandfather returned, and all the Gu family members lined up to perform a grand ceremony. Even the return of Gu Sheng, the ancestor, didn't warrant such a grand ceremony.
Afterwards, Gu Wei turned her gaze to the people of Spirit Mountain and said, "So, what else do you want to say?"
What did they want to say?
The people of Spirit Mountain looked at each other, and the Ancestor Spirit Mountain, who was kneeling on the ground, also stood up. He already knew that Gu Wei was determined not to let Spirit Mountain go today.
There was only one thing he couldn't figure out. He asked, "Who, exactly, is that person?"
He pointed at Lang Qingtian in the iron cage.
"He is the person I have decided to entrust my life to." Gu Xiang'er raised her head slightly and said proudly.
"Just because of this, you want to raze my Spirit Mountain to the ground?" Ancestor Spirit Mountain looked at Gu Wei and Gu Xiang'er in disbelief.
"Of course not."
Gu Xiang'er looked at Lang Qingtian, who was still in a coma in the iron cage, and said, "I already gave you a chance, but you didn't take me seriously. That's why Sister Gu Wei came out to make the decision for me."
"But he killed my granddaughter. We did this in retaliation, for revenge. The Gu family can't bully people like this." Elder Ding said at this time. His gaze towards Lang Qingtian was full of hatred.
His only lover in the world was his granddaughter, so as long as his granddaughter wanted anything, he would do everything he could to get it.
"That's because your granddaughter killed Old Mottled Dove's family." Gu Xiang'er retorted.
"Old Mottled Dove? Those are just a few animals. How can they compare to my granddaughter? If he wants to seek justice, he can talk to me directly. I can compensate him with better spirit birds, but why did he kill my granddaughter?" Elder Ding's voice was full of hatred.
"Animals?"
Gu Xiang'er's eyes turned cold. She said coldly, "To you, they are animals, but to Qingtian, they are neighbors, friends, and some of the few friends he can confide in on this planet."
Elder Ding was speechless.
At this time, Ancestor Spirit Mountain said to Gu Wei, "City Lord Gu, I don't understand why you would go to such lengths for a rogue cultivator who has nothing to do with the Gu family. Does his weight compare to the countless Spirit Mountain Gold under my feet?"
Gu Wei chuckled and said, "Let alone Lang Qingtian being my sister Xiang'er's chosen Dao companion, which makes him half a member of the Gu family. Since you want to talk about benefits, then I'll let you know that not to mention Spirit Mountain Gold, even the entire Yelan Star is not worth a fraction of Lang Qingtian."
"Impossible, he's just a rogue cultivator. How could he be worth more than Spirit Mountain Gold?" Ancestor Spirit Mountain shook his head, not believing what Gu Wei said.
"You won't shed tears until you see the coffin." Gu Wei sneered, then turned and pointed at Gu Xiang'er and Lang Qingtian, and said in a deep voice, "These two are the prototypes in the Holy Maiden's new book. The Holy Maiden has been developing the Holy Emperor Palace's branch hall in another great world, but she occasionally returns to the mortal world, and the biggest reason is to observe them and complete the new book."
"Tell me, do you still think Spirit Mountain Gold is worth more than him?"
As soon as these words came out, not only were the people of Spirit Mountain greatly shocked, but even the representatives of those forces were filled with horror.
"I'm also reading the Holy Maiden's new book. I didn't expect the prototypes in the book to be on our Yelan Star, and I didn't expect the heroine to be President Luo."
"What President Luo? We should call her President Gu now."
"Tsk tsk, Spirit Mountain is really finished this time. Not only did they offend the Gu family, but they also offended the Holy Maiden. They even tormented the male lead's prototype in the Holy Maiden's book into such a non-human, ghost-like state."
The people present expressed their opinions, and the final conclusion they reached was that Spirit Mountain was completely finished this time.
Two of the pinnacle forces in the mortal world.
The Gu family of the Holy Emperor and the Holy Emperor Palace.
As a result, Spirit Mountain was fine, and it wasn't enough to offend one Gu family, but they also added the Holy Emperor Palace.
Sure enough, Ancestor Spirit Mountain, who was originally preparing to sharpen his knife, had completely dimmed his eyes after hearing Gu Wei's words.
But Gu Xiang'er's anger was still not calmed when she saw Lang Qingtian, who had been tortured beyond recognition in the iron cage.
"This is thanks to you, Spirit Mountain, for announcing it to the world, otherwise I wouldn't have known that Qingtian was in your hands," Gu Xiang'er said.
"You..."
Ancestor Spirit Mountain listened to these heart-wrenching words, and remembered that this time the idea was given to him by the Spirit Mountain Sect Master, but now the Spirit Mountain Sect Master had been killed by Gu Wei with a single glance. He wanted to vent, but he couldn't find anyone.
"Bang!"
His breakthrough time was not long, and his realm had not been completely stabilized. Under the attack of Qi and blood, he actually had a tendency to go into a demonic state.
"Good, very good, since you don't give us a way to live, then no one should think about living. Let's all die together!"
Ancestor Spirit Mountain's eyes were red, and he was bursting with a powerful aura, mobilizing the Spirit Mountain Great Array, detonating the array at the cost of himself, wanting to drag everyone present to die together.
"Infinite Wine Gourd, fill it up!"
At this time, Tuoba Beier, who had been watching the show, patted the wine gourd around her waist. The wine gourd suddenly emitted a burst of golden light, and the golden light passed through Ancestor Spirit Mountain's body. Instantly, the Ancestor Spirit Mountain, who had gone into a demonic state, calmed down.
He looked at the sky, saw Tuoba Beier and Wei Min, and then bowed to them, "Holy Maiden is above, please Holy Maiden Majesty, don't kill us all."
"I will have people investigate the people of Spirit Mountain. If there are any who have committed crimes and killed innocent people indiscriminately, none will be spared," Tuoba Beier said calmly.
Ancestor Spirit Mountain was stunned, and then his face was full of wry smiles. The power of Spirit Mountain had gradually become stronger in recent years, making many disciples develop an arrogant personality. After today, I am afraid that Spirit Mountain will really be destroyed.
But he believed that in the end, Spirit Mountain would still leave some seeds behind.
"Thank you, Holy Maiden."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the elders of Spirit Mountain turned into flying ash and fell with him.
"He is a decisive person."
Tuoba Beier commented. Obviously, Ancestor Spirit Mountain also knew that these elders could not survive under her conditions. Instead of being investigated for crimes that would damage their dignity, it would be better to take a step first.
At this time, Gu Xiang'er walked to the iron cage. She opened the iron cage and then broke the shackles on Lang Qingtian's body.
"Qingtian, Qingtian..." she whispered to Lang Qingtian.
"Uh..."
Lang Qingtian, who was in a half-sleep, half-awake state, suddenly heard a voice that he had been dreaming of. With a strong will, he barely opened his eyes. What came into view was a ray of sunlight. His scattered pupils slowly focused. In the sunlight, he saw the person he had dreamed of for three thousand years.
"Miss Xiang'er?"
Lang Qingtian's chapped lips moved slightly, a little disbelieving, but soon he opened his mouth again: "It seems that I really like Miss Xiang'er. I can dream of her even before I die. Why would Miss Xiang'er call me Qingtian? But I'm sorry, Miss Xiang'er, I can't fulfill the promise I made. If there is an afterlife, I will fulfill the promise I didn't fulfill in this life."
"Daoist Lang!"
Seeing that he was delirious, Gu Xiang'er changed her address.
Sure enough, when he heard these three words, Lang Qingtian's spirit was shaken. He tried his best to move his body, wanting to get closer to see, but his cultivation base was destroyed, and his physical foundation was destroyed. He was seriously injured and could hardly move.
But he still saw clearly.
"Miss Xiang'er, is it really you?" At this moment, Lang Qingtian's eyes seemed to be full of color, shining brightly.
"It's me!" Gu Xiang'er held back her tears.
"Being able to see you again before I die, Miss Xiang'er, I will have no regrets in this life." Lang Qingtian grinned, but his smile touched the wound on his body, and he grinned in pain, but his eyes were still full of joy.
"Why, did you make a promise to my sister and make her wait for you for three thousand years, just thinking of dying and be done with it?"
At this time, Gu Wei walked over.
"Uh..."
Gu Wei's aura was too strong, and Lang Qingtian didn't dare to look at her at all.
"My cultivation base has been destroyed, my foundation has been destroyed, and I don't have much time left," Lang Qingtian explained.
"Tch, what's the big deal? Open your mouth!"
Lang Qingtian opened his mouth subconsciously. Gu Wei flicked her finger, and a Nine-Revolving Life Renewal Pill entered Lang Qingtian's mouth.
The powerful medicinal power instantly turned into a majestic vitality, sweeping Lang Qingtian's whole body in an instant. The wounds on his body recovered instantly, and the destroyed foundation was also repaired in an instant. What was even more terrifying was that the powerful vitality consumed less than one-tenth of it, and the rest all turned into spiritual power. His destroyed cultivation base was completely restored in just a few breaths.
Even after breaking and standing, his cultivation base was even more condensed, at least three points stronger than before.
"This..."
Lang Qingtian had never seen such a powerful pill, and he couldn't believe it.
Gu Wei nodded with satisfaction and said, "Talent is a little worse than Xiang'er, but the character is good. I, Gu Wei, recognize you as my brother-in-law. Almost, this life of yours was given to you by Xiang'er. From now on, you have to be driven by her. If she tells you to lie down, you can't stand."
"Sister Gu Wei!"
Gu Xiang'er was still very moved at first, but when she heard the words behind her, she was immediately shy.
"Hehe, you're shy!"
Gu Wei laughed, her figure flashed, came to the sky, and left with Tuoba Beier and the others.
Gu Xiang'er will naturally handle the rest.
Besides, they didn't want to eat dog food here.
After returning to Lanruo City, Tuoba Beier announced that she would retreat and not come out. According to her, the Holy Maiden is now full of inspiration and will write the ending of the new book before leaving the retreat.
Wei Min and Gu Wei were used to it.
It has always been like this for three thousand years.
However, the story of Lang Qingtian and Gu Xiang'er has come to an end.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Gu Wei looked at the celestial phenomena in the night sky.
"The Ziwei Heavenly Star is getting brighter and brighter. This moment is finally coming."
Gu Wei's eyes were full of curiosity. Her cultivation base had already reached the peak of the Unity Realm a long time ago. With her aptitude, proving the Dao was easy.
But this world does not allow her to break through, or rather, it does not allow all the powerhouses who do not belong to this generation of talents to break through.
This generation belongs to the Golden Generation.
Special physiques that are rare in ancient times, like bamboo shoots after a rain, appear in this era.
Only after they obtain the imprint of the heavenly heart can the powerhouses of the past era continue to break through.
Of course, it is not impossible to break through, but that requires going to other great worlds.
And the heavenly principles of other great worlds are ultimately different, far inferior to proving the Dao in one's own world.
(This chapter is four thousand words, which is enough!)
