Chapter 385 True and False After that, the sound of wind suddenly came from the Wuliang River. It is said that although Gu Yuanqing may still be a guest official of Huanling Sect, he has actually reached an agreement with the secret Sanyang Sect and has become a nephew of the sect. Some elders even brought up this matter at the sect's meeting. Yi Yunbo was furious on the spot: "What nonsense! Brother Gu has a grudge against the Sanyang Sect, so why would he work for the Sanyang Sect?" Gongsun Miao said, "Brother Yi, why should you get angry over an outsider? Uncle Chen only said a possibility. As the saying goes, you should not have the intention to harm others, but you should always be on guard against others. After all, Gu Shen Diao is a great cultivator who has reached the Three Tribulations of Heaven Transformation, and he lives by the Wuliang River. It is reasonable for him to think more about it. Moreover, according to the grudge between Gu Shen Diao and the Sanyang Sect, the Sanyang Sect should have known that he was by the Wuliang River. How could they have ignored it? As the saying goes, there is no smoke without fire. Since there is such a rumor, we should be more careful." Yi Yunbo said angrily: "Brother Gongsun's words clearly harbor evil intentions. I don't know where these rumors came from. If your words were to reach the ears of our customers, wouldn't it alienate them?" Gongsun Miao snorted coldly, "Junior Brother Yi, be careful with your words. I am also considering the sect. Besides, these words are only discussed within our sect. Who would spread them outside?" Yi Yunbo asked, "Brother Gongsun, are you afraid that the guests of the Huanling Sect will be disheartened by what you said?" Gongsun Miao said, "I am only referring to Gu Shendiao. What about other guests? Anyway, who among the other guests is like him? We don't even know his origins. We only know his last name is Gu, not his full name. To be honest, if he does something in the name of my Huanling Sect's guest, and withdraws from the ancient world and never comes back, who can find him? This karma will be borne by my Huanling Sect!"

As soon as these words were spoken, many people started talking about it. This point has indeed been criticized by people. How can they be guests of the sect, but they are unwilling to tell even their names and origins? Could it be that they are harboring evil intentions? Before Gu Shen Diao arrived at Wuliang River, he had already caused quite a stir and was almost dragged into the feud with Sanyang Sect. Because of this great battle, the Soul Fishing Campaign around Wuliang River for two consecutive months was affected. Yi Yunbo was about to open his mouth to refute. Lu Zeyu, who was sitting at the top, said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Since Gu Shendiao is a guest of our Huanling Sect, we should trust him." The clan leader's words put the topic to rest, but what Gongsun Miao had just said left a seed in everyone's mind. The Huanling Sect was naturally willing to make friends with the master of the three tribulations of heaven who could fight with Pei Yutang, but they were still wary and resentful in their hearts. Gongsun Miao certainly didn't think of using these to embarrass Gu Yuanqing, and the sect would certainly not do so, but this could affect Yi Yunbo's position in the sect. A guest who has experienced three tribulations of heaven and is willing to walk with the sect and a guest whose origins are unknown and who may even have other purposes are two completely different things for the Huanling Sect. As these true disciples achieve celestial beings, they will begin to take charge of some of the sect's affairs, and all these things will affect their status in the sect and the resources they can obtain. In the Linglong Realm, resources represent everything. Without resources to become a celestial being, perhaps in the end one will just stop at one or two calamities of heavenly transformation. Gongsun Miao had high aspirations. He did not want to end up powerless against the heavenly calamity and have his cultivation career come to a sad end. He even said that he had great aptitude and thought that if he fought hard step by step, he might be able to enter the top ten geniuses list and soar to the sky. However, due to his previous concessions, he ultimately had no chance to enter the ancient world. Even so, the road of cultivation is still long. With his qualifications, as long as he has enough resources, he may not be unqualified to compete for the position of sect leader in the end! …… Gu Yuanqing was fishing peacefully in the Wuliang River. The Sanyang Sect had never come to cause trouble. There were also Sanyang Sect monks by the Wuliang River, but the matter between the Sanyang Sect and Gu Yuanqing concerned the reputation of the Sanyang Sect. The sect even had a ban, so everyone kept silent about Gu Yuanqing, saying that the grudge between the two was over, and they refused to say anything more. This has led to even more speculation and divergent opinions. Once, Gu Yuanqing came out of the ancient fishing platform and gave the Dao Soul below the Earth Rank that he had caught to Yi Yunbo. Seeing that Yi Yunbo was hesitant to speak, he said, "Brother Yi, just say what you want to say." Yi Yunbo hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "Nothing, Brother Gu, don't think too much." Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "Brother Yi, you want to talk about the rumors by the Wuliang River, right?" Yi Yunbo smiled bitterly: "So Brother Gu has also heard about it. To be honest, there are also people in the sect who are taking advantage of the opportunity to gain power." Gu Yuanqing laughed: "It's just some nonsense. I have indeed settled my grievances with the Sanyang Sect, but that's all. I didn't come to this world to get involved in any sect disputes. Besides, I met Sect Master Lu when I came to Wuliang River. You don't have to worry about anything."

Yi Yunbo said: "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Brother Gu." Gu Yuanqing chuckled and said, "This kind of dispute happens everywhere, so it's not surprising. Just follow the crowd. You can't kill everyone, so don't pay too much attention to it." Yi Yunbo sighed, "With Brother Gu's cultivation, he really doesn't need to care about it. As long as he is strong enough, everything is just a passing cloud and insignificant." Gu Yuanqing smiled and said, "Take a look at the Dao Souls in the Soul Sealing Seal. There are two Earth-level Dao Souls that I left behind specifically for you. They are compatible with your cultivation. You can't just keep wasting your time." Yi Yunbo took a look and his eyes lit up. These two were both lower-grade Dao Souls of the Earth Rank, one each for Feng Shui and Daoism. They were indeed just right for his current cultivation level and enough to allow him to completely stabilize in the realm of Heavenly Change Tribulation. However, he still refused and said, "Brother Gu, please don't mention the reward. These two Dao Souls are indeed what I need, but you can just buy them." Gu Yuanqing waved his hand and said, "You spent a lot of effort to get me the Nine-bend Soul-shaking Formation and the detailed explanation of the formation. However, although this formation is good, it is still not what I need, so I will have to trouble you in the future." “Brother Gu…” "Brother Yi, I know what you want to say, but listen to me. In the past, the things you needed were all at the Void Heaven Realm, and you could let others handle them. But now, what I need is at least the items at the third level of the Heavenly Change Realm. I'm afraid you will have to do everything yourself, and even need your elders to help you. If your cultivation is delayed because of me, I will also feel uneasy. For me at this moment, the Earth-level Dao Soul is nothing. Since we are fellow Taoists, we should support each other. Moreover, the higher your cultivation level is, the better it is for me. To put it in an inappropriate way, Brother Yi, if I make further progress in my cultivation, you will still only be at the first level of the Heavenly Change Realm, and I'm afraid there will be little you can do to help me." Yi Yunbo was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, clasped his fists and bowed slightly: "Then I will respectfully obey your command. In the future, if Brother Gu has any orders, as long as it does not violate the sect's rules, I will do my best." After watching Yi Yunbo leave, Gu Yuanqing returned to the ancient fishing platform again. What he said just now was half true and half false. In the final analysis, Gu Yuanqing just didn't want to owe anyone a favor! Time flies, and ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. Gu Yuanqing settled down completely by the Wuliang River. With the help of the Dao Soul of the Wuliang River, he exchanged for a large amount of resources needed for cultivation, and even caught more than a dozen Heavenly Grade Dao Souls, causing a sensation on the banks of the Wuliang River. Gu Yuanqing would not sell a single Heavenly Grade Dao Soul, but with the experience of the Sanyang Sect as a lesson, no one dared to cause trouble for him. Moreover, over the past ten years, even though the Sanyang Sect kept the news secret very carefully, some rumors still leaked out. But most people still treat this true story as a rumor. But people like Lu Zeyu can judge from many things that this seemingly outrageous rumor is true! Therefore, Gu Yuanqing's status in the Huanling Sect is also higher. Because Gu Yuanqing gave him Dao Souls several times, Yi Yunbo's cultivation improved rapidly and his sect's status also rose. Gongsun Miao wanted to bring up the past again, but was scolded by Lu Zeyu and dared not say another word. As mentioned before, the Yin-Yang Realm and the Heavenly Change Realm are completely different concepts. Even when Lu Zeyu came into contact with Gu Yuanqing, he became more cautious and polite in his words! (End of this chapter)
