After Gu Changsheng guided Hong Hong and the ancient Crown Prince of the Sky Peng race in their cultivation for half a month within the Serpent Human race, Hong Hong couldn't wait to take the ancient Crown Prince of the Sky Peng once again onto the Starry Sky Ancient Road's teleportation altar. She wanted to rush to the later checkpoints as quickly as possible to find her sister.
Enveloped by the altar's five-colored light, Hong Hong waved goodbye to Gu Changsheng.
Before departing, Hong Hong said to Gu Changsheng, "Master, don't forget the ten-year agreement you made with Junior Brother. Seven years have already passed, leaving only three years remaining."
"Don't worry, how could Master forget?" Gu Changsheng said, waving to Hong Hong with a smile.
Hong Hong nodded, and the two of them soared into the sky with the five-colored light, entering the Starry Sky Ancient Road leading to the fifth checkpoint.
After the two left, Gu Changsheng muttered, "If Hong Hong hadn't reminded me, I really would have forgotten about it. It's all that rebellious disciple's fault. Why didn't he remind me last time we met? That's his own sect he created, yet he doesn't take it to heart. No, I need to educate him when I have time and teach him a lesson."
After speaking, Gu Changsheng's figure disappeared.
...
"Achoo!"
On a certain ancient star in the third checkpoint, Li Beifei, who was sitting on the head of a Teng Snake, suddenly sneezed. The two sisters beside him quickly asked, "Young Master, are you alright?"
Li Beifei shook his head and said, "It must be Qingyi missing me!" After saying that, a happy smile appeared on his face. As for the old guy missing him? He shook his head. How could the old guy miss him? Impossible, absolutely impossible. It must be Qingyi missing him. It's been over a year since they separated. A day apart feels like three autumns, equivalent to not seeing each other for thousands of years. Yearning!
"Young Master's lovesickness has struck again," the younger sister, Liu Yuran, whispered to her older sister, Liu Yanran.
"Shhh, don't disturb Young Master!" Liu Yanran pulled Liu Yuran to the other side of the Teng Snake's head.
At this moment, Li Beifei suddenly turned to look at the two sisters and asked, "Do you think this Young Master can cultivate to the Saint realm in three years?"
"..."
Liu Yuran touched her forehead, then touched her older sister Liu Yanran's forehead, and said, "We're not sick, so why are we having hallucinations?"
"Sister, did Young Master just ask us something?" Liu Yuran asked Liu Yanran.
"I think... so?" Liu Yanran's tone was also filled with uncertainty.
The main reason was that the question Li Beifei asked was too outrageous. He wanted to cultivate from the Nirvana realm to the Saint realm in three years. This... couldn't be found in any historical records.
Seeing this, Li Beifei sighed.
"Alas, I knew it wouldn't work. I even thought ten years was a long time when the old guy set it. Damn, it's all because I was ignorant back then!"
Li Beifei regretted not having his master set a hundred or a thousand years. When his cultivation was shallow, he found it easy to break through realms. A major realm a year was not a problem at all, but now that he had reached the Nirvana realm, his cultivation speed had suddenly slowed down. He was only at the third level of the Nirvana realm now.
"Could it be that Sixth will really have to raise my cultivation?" Li Beifei thought of the Sixth within his body. As long as he wanted, the Sixth could instantly raise his cultivation to the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm, but if that were the case, he would never be able to break through the shackles of the Immortal Emperor realm in his life. He was still thinking of achieving great success in the Sword Dao and making the old guy sing 'Conquer.' If he were trapped at the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm for life, he would never have a chance to rise.
But if he didn't let Sixth help him raise his cultivation, then in three years, he and the Seven Star Sword Sect would have to face the siege of three quasi-Emperor forces. He was confident that he could guarantee his safety, but what about the others in the Seven Star Sword Sect? Duan Pangzi and Chen Fan had followed him steadfastly since he was very weak, and what about the disciples of the Seven Star Sword Sect? Could he abandon them?
Although Li Beifei couldn't be said to be a good person, he could never forgive himself if he had to watch the people of the Seven Star Sword Sect die because of him.
"Worry!" With three years left, Li Beifei was also quite anxious.
"If only lightning would strike from the sky and destroy the three forces," Li Beifei cursed fiercely. Anyway, as long as the Seven Star Sword Sect could win in the end, the process didn't matter.
The two sisters, Liu Yanran, watched Li Beifei mutter to himself, not knowing what he was saying, and not daring to interrupt.
However, they could feel that Li Beifei seemed to be worried about something.
"Young Master, why don't you ask Master to take action if there's something wrong?" Liu Yuran asked. The "Master" she mentioned was naturally Gu Changsheng.
Li Beifei shook his head. How could the old guy take action? He had set up this ten-year agreement himself. To make the old guy break the agreement would be like making him slap himself in the face. Was that possible? Impossible!
"If only Aunt Bai were here, the mere three forces would be slapped to death," Li Beifei couldn't help but miss Aunt Bai, who always called him Little Feifei. He wondered if Aunt Bai had become an immortal yet.
"Master, we're here!"
At this moment, Teng Snake's voice came. In front of them, a five-colored altar appeared.
"Go!"
Li Beifei gave an order and took the lead in flying onto the five-colored altar. The two sisters, Liu Yanran, followed closely behind, while Teng Snake shrunk his body to a few inches in size and also walked in. As for Li Wangba and Black Dragon, these two guys were currently snoring in the special space within Li Beifei's body.
These two guys had been sleeping for a particularly long time recently, ranging from ten days to half a month to two or three months. Each time they woke up, they were mentally dazed, but their strength had become much stronger.
Li Beifei didn't know what level these two guys' strength had reached now.
As the five-colored light disappeared, the three people and one snake entered the Starry Sky Ancient Road.
Not long after Li Beifei left, a streak of cyan light streaked across the sky and stopped in front of the five-colored altar. The light dissipated, and a huge bird appeared. It was actually a Green Bird. The origin of the Green Bird was the same as that of the Teng Snake under Li Beifei's seat. They were both legendary divine beasts. The strength of this Green Bird was no weaker than that of the Teng Snake, and on the back of the Green Bird stood a young man. He was as handsome as jade, and his temperament was like that of an immortal.
"Master, I sense a familiar aura!" The Green Bird opened its mouth and spoke human words.
"Yes, I feel it too. It's the aura of the two sisters who are following my younger brother, but it's strange, they passed through here, but why isn't there my brother's aura?" The man frowned slightly.
Gu Tianxing couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think much about it. Instead, he entered the altar with the Green Bird and headed to the Starry Sky Ancient Road of the next checkpoint.
...
After bidding farewell to Hong Hong, Gu Changsheng did not return directly. Instead, he found Gu Xinfei and Snake Ji, because since he wanted to reform the Starry Sky Ancient Road, he naturally had to find some people or organizations related to the Starry Sky Ancient Road.
