Emperor Hongshi had already made a decision in his heart, but he still wanted to see if Li Beifei could become a qualified preacher and test his qualities.
Emperor Hongshi instantly remembered that he had a suitable preacher by his side, so why bother looking for others.
"Friend, how about I entrust the martial path to you, and you help me choose a suitable successor?" Emperor Hongshi looked at Gu Changsheng expectantly.
Gu Changsheng glanced at him, chuckled, and said, "No time!"
"Indeed, I was being presumptuous." Emperor Hongshi nodded. With Gu Changsheng's unfathomable cultivation, he naturally had to focus on pursuing higher realms, so where would he find the time to help him find a successor? He was really overthinking it.
"I'm busy brewing wine every day, where would I find the time to find you a successor?" Gu Changsheng said bluntly.
Emperor Hongshi's illusion staggered, almost dissipating completely. He stabilized his figure and asked, "Friend, are you exploring a cultivation system related to wine?"
It's not that Emperor Hongshi would think this way, but it was really hard for him to imagine that Gu Changsheng was just brewing ordinary mortal wine.
"Exploring a new cultivation system? Are you sick in the head or am I? How could I do such a troublesome thing? I just simply want to brew some wine for myself to drink, otherwise always going to buy wine, it would be troublesome if someone like my noble self were recognized!"
As Gu Changsheng spoke, he took out the wine pot that had been with him for who knows how many years and started drinking.
Although Emperor Hongshi was just a memory, he could tell that the wine Gu Changsheng was drinking had no spiritual energy at all, it was just ordinary mortal wine.
His lips twitched, and in the end, he still felt it was better to observe Li Beifei's performance, at least Li Beifei could bring him a little hope.
……
Li Beifei walked along the deep bluestone passage towards the depths of the tomb. Every time he passed a stone wall inlaid with immortal source, Li Beifei couldn't help but recall the scene of his desperate sword strike. Fortunately, no one saw it at the time, otherwise he would definitely be laughed at.
"The separate path setting is quite humane!" Li Beifei was originally not used to the time when Liu Yanran and Liu Yuran were not by his side, but when he thought that no one had seen his silly scene just now, it was a good thing that they were not around.
The young master's tall and glorious image cannot collapse!
Li Beifei couldn't help but speed up, gradually running at full speed.
In high-speed motion, the scenery on both sides of the person seemed to be retreating rapidly, so he didn't have to see the immortal source inlaid on the stone wall.
What a simple and unadorned method, I didn't even think of it before.
Just as Li Beifei was thinking wildly, a burst of light appeared in front of him.
"Whoosh!"
Li Beifei stopped abruptly and found himself in the audience of a huge arena. The bluestone passage he was walking on seemed to be the entrance to the arena.
Li Beifei jumped down into the arena in one stride. After landing steadily, he found that the arena was also completely paved with bluestone. How much does this Emperor Hongshi love bluestone?
"Strange, why put an arena in a tomb? Does he want the people who come in to perform?" Li Beifei looked thoughtful.
"Welcome, challenger!"
Just then, a voice suddenly sounded, scaring Li Beifei.
"Who? Is it a person or a ghost? Come out, I can tell you, I am not even afraid of Gu Changsheng, you can't scare me."
Li Beifei looked around nervously. The Tian Shu Sword and Tian Xuan Sword had already been unsheathed, and even the long-lost Seven Star Sword Box was on his back, seemingly boosting his courage.
"……" Emperor Hongshi.
"Friend? Your disciple, isn't afraid of you but is so scared by my voice, is that really okay?" Emperor Hongshi looked at the nervous Li Beifei speechlessly.
"Rebellious disciple!" Gu Changsheng was furious, losing face, too much face, actually afraid of ghosts.
And Li Beifei, seeing that the voice did not appear again for a long time, became even more nervous.
Damn it, this is an immortal's tomb, could there be a zombie transformation? Damn, an immortal's zombie transformation, that's a disaster, the old guy has to come to suppress it.
"Don't be nervous, I am not a ghost, and there is no zombie transformation. I am the owner of this tomb, Emperor Hongshi."
Emperor Hongshi's voice sounded.
"Emperor Hongshi?" Li Beifei's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Did you come out to give me your inheritance? Come on, I'm ready."
"……" Emperor Hongshi.
"The rebellious disciple is naughty, please bear with him, friend." Gu Changsheng resisted the urge to beat Li Beifei, losing face, too much face.
"If you want my inheritance, then you have to pass my test." Emperor Hongshi said.
"What test, bring it on!" Li Beifei said with great confidence, what test could stop him, Li Beifei? He is a man who is not even afraid of Gu Changsheng.
"The test is very simple, that is to kill the people who came in with you. As long as you kill them, you can obtain an inheritance comparable to that of an Immortal Emperor."
As Emperor Hongshi's voice fell, Bai Yifei, Liu Yanran, and Liu Yuran appeared in front of Li Beifei. They were lying peacefully on the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.
"How about it?" Emperor Hongshi asked again.
After hearing Emperor Hongshi's words, Li Beifei's face had changed. When he saw Bai Yifei and the others lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead, his face completely turned gloomy.
Li Beifei's face was gloomy. He looked around. The bluestone walls inlaid with immortal source emitted a faint ghostly light. In this tomb, it looked a bit eerie and terrifying, but Li Beifei was not afraid of any ghosts now. His heart was completely filled with anger.
Li Beifei quickly walked to the three of them and checked them. Although they still had signs of life, no matter how he called, he couldn't wake them up.
Suddenly, Li Beifei stood up, holding the Tian Shu Sword in his left hand and the Tian Xuan Sword in his right hand, pointing both swords at the sky, as if pointing at Emperor Hongshi. He said angrily, "I'll go to your grandpa Emperor Hongshi, what did you do to them? Damn, if anything happens to them, I'll dig out your corpse and scatter your ashes."
"Bold, I gave you the opportunity to inherit my supreme Dao lineage, you don't cherish it, and you, a mere child, dare to utter wild words and want to scatter my ashes, who gave you the courage?" Emperor Hongshi's angry voice sounded.
"Bullshit supreme Dao lineage, who cares about your inheritance, quickly wake up my friends, otherwise don't blame me for being impolite." Li Beifei held two swords, actually threatening an immortal, even if this immortal had passed away countless years ago, it was not something a small Nirvana Realm Ninth Layer guy like him could compare to.
Emperor Hongshi seemed to be amused by his remarks, and he said, "I'll give you one last chance, kill them, and you can inherit my inheritance comparable to that of an Immortal Emperor."
Hearing this, Li Beifei's face became even more gloomy, and he said sternly, "Although I, Li Beifei, am not a good person, I can't do things like betraying relatives and friends to obtain benefits. I'll also give you one last chance, wake them up, otherwise I will really be impolite."
"Hmph! Don't know how to appreciate favors, I want to see how you, a mere Nirvana Realm ant, can be impolite to me." Emperor Hongshi laughed angrily. Although this was just a test for Li Beifei, and he had died countless years ago, he was the dignified Martial Ancestor Emperor Hongshi, being threatened by a kid with a sword, it would definitely be laughed at if it was said.
Not to mention, the friend Gu next to him was holding back his laughter.
"Friend, your disciple, has too high a spirit, right?" Emperor Hongshi was both speechless and helpless. He originally just wanted to simply test Li Beifei's character, but he didn't expect that Li Beifei would directly confront him because he had fainted Bai Yifei and the others. Even if he was just a memory of Emperor Hongshi's true form, it was not something Li Beifei could contend with. Where did Li Beifei get the courage to be impolite to him?
However, he had seen clearly Li Beifei's character. He was greedy for money, and sometimes he was carefree and felt like a silly good person, but he was sincere to the people around him. Even if the enemy was strong, he would fight back instead of resigning himself to fate.
Isn't this the best seedling for cultivating the martial path? It's a pity, why is he so obsessed with the sword path!
"I really give you one more chance, quickly wake them up, otherwise I will really be impolite." Li Beifei emphasized again.
Emperor Hongshi really laughed this time, and he said, "Impolite? Then you show me how impolite you can be."
Hearing this, a fierce look flashed in Li Beifei's eyes, and he said, "You forced me!"
Gu Changsheng was also very curious about what method this rebellious disciple had to be impolite to Emperor Hongshi. Could it be to let Old Six improve his cultivation? That was a method, but after improving his cultivation, he would never want to improve again in his life. Could this kid do this for those three little guys?
Just when Gu Changsheng was also curious, Li Beifei finally made a move.
I saw Li Beifei concentrating his energy in his dantian, and his mouth kept absorbing the surrounding heaven and earth spiritual energy. Soon, his belly became bigger than a pregnant woman's in October.
"What is this rebellious disciple trying to do?" Gu Changsheng was puzzled. The next moment, his face changed.
Emperor Hongshi was also dumbfounded.
"Gu Changsheng, damn you, come out and beat me, young master Li Beifei is asking for abuse, you haven't beaten me in a year, I'm really uncomfortable, come out, if you have the guts, come out and beat me, if you don't come out, it means you're afraid of me, then obediently sing 'Conquer' for me, Gu Changsheng, did you hear me, Gu Changsheng... uh..."
Li Beifei's voice stopped abruptly.
Gu Changsheng was still holding the wine pot in his hand, he looked at Li Beifei with a gloomy face, and sneered, "Is this your method? Curse, why don't you continue to curse?"
"Hehe, Master, that... don't hit my face, okay?" Li Beifei didn't explain, but looked at Gu Changsheng with pleading eyes. With the old guy's strength, he definitely knows why I would curse him. I was also forced to do this, otherwise I wouldn't be able to invite you old man out, my good brother and two cute sword servants are in danger, Master, I was also forced to do this.
"Hehe!" Gu Changsheng took a sip of wine, then slowly put away the wine pot, came to Li Beifei, gently pinched Li Beifei's face, and smiled, "How could I hit my beloved disciple's face."
"Really... ouch, you said you wouldn't hit my face, you not only hit me, but also swung your arm around and slapped me in the face, ouch... lighter, lighter, I'm disfigured... ah... Master, spare me... ah, it hurts so much... damn it, old guy, you beat me to death, you beat me to death and see how you explain to Aunt Bai... ah, I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong... I won't dare next time..."
"You say you won't dare next time every time, which time did you not dare?" Gu Changsheng rolled up his sleeves and continued to beat him hard.
Emperor Hongshi looked at the interaction between this pair of masters and disciples, and his mouth twitched. Now he understood what Li Beifei meant by the sentence "I'm not even afraid of Gu Changsheng", it turned out that this guy was not the first time he had been beaten like this.
Moreover, this is the method to be impolite to him? Okay, although this method is quite explosive in the ancient years, it has to be said that it is a good method.
Actually losing to a Nirvana Realm little guy, it seems that I really have to let go.
This guy, although his personality has various small flaws, his character is excellent, entrusting the martial path to him is not a bad thing.
