Gu Changsheng didn't return immediately but strolled around the market. Passing by a restaurant, his craving for wine returned, so he carried the large bag of flower seeds inside.
If you ask why Gu Changsheng didn't put the flower seeds into his storage space, the reason is simple.
These were the flower seeds his wife wanted, how could he put them with mundane things like immortal gold and immortal herbs in his storage space?
He chose a seat by the window, ordered a pot of wine, and then heard people in the restaurant discussing his destruction of the five major families.
"The news travels fast." Gu Changsheng smiled, not caring. After the waiter brought the wine, he quietly drank it.
"Have you heard? The five supreme families of Ye City—the Jin family, Wang family, Song family, Yu family, and Bei family—were destroyed overnight by a mysterious powerhouse."
"Nonsense, of course I've heard of such a big thing. And I also know some inside information you don't know."
This person's voice was full of smugness.
"How so?" The companions next to him were all interested and looked at him, wanting to know some unknown inside information from him.
"Ahem, a little thirsty. If only there was a pot of wine at this time…"
"Waiter, bring us your best wine." The others instantly understood what he meant and immediately called for the waiter to bring wine.
"Brother Yu, the wine will be here soon. I wonder what inside information you know?" he asked again.
The person called Brother Yu didn't delay. He said with a smile, "My second uncle's neighbor's aunt's son's master's friend is a manager of the Falling霞 Sect. The five major families rely on the Falling霞 Sect, and every year they send talented geniuses to the Falling霞 Sect. This time, the destruction of the five major families overnight is not just a shock to the Falling霞 Sect. Today, someone saw the Falling霞 True Immortal leave the Falling霞 Sect, and the direction he left was towards the Moonflower Holy Land."
"Think about it, these five major families are just supreme forces. Even if they are destroyed, it shouldn't alarm the Moonflower Holy Land. But the Falling霞 True Immortal going to the Moonflower Holy Land at this time, I think, is not such a coincidence."
The others' expressions became extremely solemn upon hearing this. Someone asked, "Brother Yu, what else do you know?"
Brother Yu looked left and right, and then said in a low voice, "Of course, what I just said doesn't count as inside information. I heard that the one who destroyed the five major families was the Sun Moon Demon Sect, which was suppressed by the Moonflower Immortal King back then."
"Pfft…"
Originally, Gu Changsheng didn't care about others discussing this matter, but when he heard the last part, he couldn't help but spit out the wine in his mouth.
What overnight destruction of the five major families? When he took action, the sun was shining brightly, where did the night come from?
Even if that was the case, what was up with the Sun Moon Demon Sect? Did they have the qualifications to take the blame for him?
"Sir, are you alright?"
The waiter saw Gu Changsheng spit out the wine and asked nervously. He was the one who served the wine, so if there was something wrong with the customer, he would be the first to be blamed.
"It's okay, I drank too fast and choked." Gu Changsheng waved his hand.
"Then please enjoy your meal, sir. Please feel free to ask if you need anything," the waiter said respectfully.
Gu Changsheng nodded and waved for the waiter to leave.
"If it's really the Sun Moon Demon Sect, then our Bright Moon Immortal Domain will probably be in chaos again. I don't know how many lives will be lost by then. Damn Sun Moon Demon Sect!"
After hearing about the Sun Moon Demon Sect, those people's faces suddenly became worried, and even the delicious wine on the table became tasteless.
Little did they know that the person among them called Brother Yu had a glint in his eyes.
Others didn't notice, but Gu Changsheng did.
Soon, the group dispersed, but the one called Brother Yu stayed until the end. After everyone else left, he got up and left the restaurant. He seemed to be intentionally avoiding others, and after walking into the crowd, he came to an empty alley when no one was paying attention.
He walked very lightly in the alley. Suddenly, he seemed to be in a daze, but he didn't seem to know what happened and continued walking deeper into the alley. Before long, he disappeared into the alley.
Inside the restaurant, Gu Changsheng was still drinking.
"Just a small fry!"
Just now, he had searched Brother Yu's memory. As he expected, this person was from the Sun Moon Demon Sect, but just a peripheral minion who didn't know core information. He had only received orders from the higher-ups to spread some topics about the Sun Moon Demon Sect and create panic.
Originally, this was none of Gu Changsheng's business, but the Sun Moon Demon Sect could have chosen anything, but they chose his destruction of the five major families to make a fuss about.
He was a dignified Saint Emperor, when did he need others to take the blame for him? Not to mention whether the Sun Moon Demon Sect was worthy, but if this was spread out, wouldn't he be laughed at?
"Waiter, check out!"
After paying the source crystals, Gu Changsheng left the restaurant and returned to the valley.
"Went drinking again, huh?"
The smell of alcohol on Gu Changsheng's body hadn't dissipated, and Yao Xian smelled it immediately.
"Hehe, I had to try the wine here." Gu Changsheng said with a smile, putting down the large bag of flower seeds.
"Bought so much?" Yao Xian was stunned when she saw the large bag of flower seeds. She asked, "You didn't buy everything you could, did you?"
Gu Changsheng nodded.
"So much, this valley can't be planted all over." Yao Xian was a little dumbfounded.
"It's okay, we won't only be in this place anyway, we can plant in another place." Gu Changsheng said.
"That's the only way." Yao Xian said.
"Do you know about the Sun Moon Demon Sect?" Gu Changsheng asked.
"Sun Moon Demon Sect?"
Yao Xian was startled, then nodded gently. She said, "The ancient books of the Moonflower Holy Land record this power, but it was suppressed by the Moonflower Immortal King millions of years ago. Why did you suddenly bring this up?"
Facing Yao Xian's inquiry, Gu Changsheng didn't hide anything and told her about how he destroyed the five major families and how the Sun Moon Demon Sect used it to create panic.
"Pfft!"
After Yao Xian finished listening, she chuckled.
"This is too coincidental, isn't it? If I didn't know the truth, I would have suspected that the Sun Moon Demon Sect was created by you." Yao Xian laughed heartily.
Gu Changsheng shrugged helplessly.
"Then what are you going to do?" Yao Xian asked him after laughing.
"Destroy them!" Gu Changsheng said fiercely.
"They're taking the blame for you, isn't it too rash to destroy them like this?" Yao Xian didn't have any ill feelings towards the Sun Moon Demon Sect, but because she had stayed on Tianqing Peak in the Moonflower Holy Land for more than ten years, she had a good impression of the Moonflower Holy Land. If the two major forces were to compete and let her choose a side to help, without a doubt, she would choose the Moonflower Holy Land.
However, the Moonflower Holy Land currently has two Immortal Kings sitting in town. Unless the Sun Moon Demon Sect can have an existence surpassing the Immortal King, they will only be suppressed if they encounter the Moonflower Holy Land.
"If I said that they are not worthy to take the blame for me, would you think I'm arrogant?" Gu Changsheng asked.
"No!"
Yao Xian shook her head.
"That's good!"
Gu Changsheng nodded.
"Are you really going to take action?" Yao Xian asked.
Gu Changsheng shook his head and said, "They are even less worthy of me taking action personally!"
Yao Xian couldn't help but roll her eyes at him when she heard this.
Gu Changsheng smiled and said, "The most urgent task now is to plant these flower seeds and restore this sea of flowers as soon as possible. Otherwise, if Yun Wuyue finds out, she will definitely complain about why I allowed her flowers to be harmed."
"Sister Wuyue wouldn't complain about you. She would only be like you and suppress all those people." Yao Xian said, and her movements were not slow. She separated the flower seeds into small packages.
Then the two changed into casual clothes, took hoes, and began to plant flowers.
…
"Chase, don't let it run away. It actually stole the divine medicine we discovered, damn it!"
"Where did this phoenix come from? Good, capture it. Not only can it compensate for the lost divine medicine, but if we offer it to the sect leader, maybe we will be given immortal pills and become immortals on the spot!"
"That's right, we must capture it!"
"Rumble!"
Heaven and earth collapsed, and a phoenix bathed in divine fire appeared, alarming all the forces in the Bright Moon Immortal Domain.
