Chapter 145 You Must Have Done Something Bad Again
"I'm truly a genius..."
Gu Qing returned to his cave dwelling happily.
With Jiang Yu, a super powerhouse, helping to refine it, he could absolutely refine an extremely powerful divine artifact.
If he refined it himself, not only would it be time-consuming and laborious, but the refined artifact would definitely not be as good as what Jiang Yu could refine.
Moreover, he could only refine a Supreme Artifact because he only had the cultivation of the Venerable Realm and could only inscribe Law Divine Patterns of the Venerable Realm.
Therefore, it was still more comfortable to be a pendant of a powerhouse.
Gu Qing couldn't help but laugh out loud when he thought of Jiang Yu panting and refining a divine artifact for him.
"You little bastard, laughing so sinisterly, have you done something bad again?"
Bai Suying checked the growth of the spiritual herbs and saw Gu Qing's face full of smiles, which looked sinister no matter how she looked at it, as if he had gained a huge advantage.
She couldn't help but feel curious in her heart and appeared before Gu Qing in a flash, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed and her arms crossed.
"Hmm?"
Gu Qing was in a good mood, but when he heard Bai Suying scolding him again, he immediately became displeased: "What do you mean by 'again'? I've obtained an opportunity."
"Do you even believe what you're saying?" Bai Suying's beautiful eyes slanted, looking contemptuous.
Although she hadn't been following Gu Qing for long, she knew his character and wealth all too well.
She estimated that Gu Qing wouldn't even smile if he found an immortal artifact, at most he would be happy in his heart for just a moment.
Therefore, Gu Qing must have done something bad and succeeded in his scheme.
"I think you're itching for a lesson..."
Gu Qing was somewhat annoyed. This little queen actually looked down on him, which was great, he liked queens who were tough and arrogant.
And then he would bully her until she cried, her voice becoming hoarse from crying.
"Don't... I know I was wrong."
Bai Suying was terrified. Su Qingyue was still cultivating in the Ruyi Space.
She really regretted it. She had clearly decided not to scold Gu Qing anymore, so why couldn't she hold back!
"Scared now? But it's too late to know you're wrong..."
After dealing with Bai Suying, a day had passed.
Gu Qing took out a piece of divine marrow and divine iron for her.
"The divine iron is for you to refine a divine artifact, and the divine marrow is for Father-in-law."
Bai Suying's eyes were dazed and unfocused. When she heard Gu Qing's words, a glint of light appeared in her beautiful eyes.
"Okay!"
She didn't refuse because Gu Qing was truly too wealthy.
Putting aside other things, the Primordial Mother Qi in the Ruyi Space alone was enough for them to cultivate to the Supreme Realm.
The divine marrow that those in the Saint Realm dreamed of had instead become a worthless little trinket.
Bai Suying was deeply moved and truly understood what it meant for one person to achieve enlightenment, and even chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.
With Gu Qing's resources, why would her old father worry about not being able to become a god?
"This is the mark to enter and exit the Ruyi Space. Within a billion miles, you can freely enter and exit."
Gu Qing condensed a mark to enter and exit the Ruyi Space and pointed it at Bai Suying's brow.
With this mark, Gu Qing could also use the Hongmeng Ruyi Tower to instantly teleport to Bai Suying's side no matter the distance.
The Ruyi mark was considered a protective talisman for Bai Suying.
After Bai Suying left, Gu Qing summoned the system.
"System, give me a lottery draw."
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining an Innate Spirit Treasure, the Fire Spirit Pearl.]
"Eh, I'm blessed by the Emperor of Europe..."
Gu Qing said joyfully.
[Host, this is only a low-grade Innate Spirit Treasure containing the Law of Fire, while the Sun Divine Fire also contains the Law of Fire, but it needs to be upgraded to Immortal Fire to be comparable to the Fire Spirit Pearl. However, the Sun Divine Fire can continue to be upgraded, so each has its own advantages.]
Hearing the system's explanation, Gu Qing's joy of being blessed by the Emperor of Europe instantly disappeared.
Silently closing the system, Gu Qing took out two Supreme Bones and pondered how to use them.
If he implanted them in his body, he would have two more Supreme Bones.
But Gu Qing didn't want to do that.
Because some things are not better in greater quantity.
He already had a more powerful Dao Bone, so why would he need to divert his attention to nurture the Supreme Bones?
Besides, even if the Supreme Bones were nurtured to contain laws, could they compare to the Great Dao Law of the Dao Bone?
Rather than being diverse but not refined, it was better to focus entirely on nurturing the Dao Bone and excavating its supreme Great Dao Law.
Why didn't Luo Li choose to fuse with Ye Hao's Supreme Bone back then? It was because she didn't want to divert her attention and energy. Focusing on one path was the broad and open road.
Gu Qing pondered for a moment and made the same decision as Luo Li.
However, he couldn't just refine it simply. If no laws were nurtured, it would be a huge loss.
Gu Qing looked at the tattoo on the back of his hand.
The Space Divine Pattern was an Innate Supreme Treasure. Extracting some divinity from it might increase the probability of it containing the Law of Space.
What he thought, he did.
Gu Qing immediately performed the Chaos Treasure Bottle Seal, refining the Supreme Bones and absorbing endless Primordial Mother Qi.
On the other side, in the great hall of Wuya Peak, Bai Wuyai saw a bottle of precious liquid and a large piece of divine marrow. He was so shocked his jaw dropped, and his heart almost leaped out of his chest.
He quickly reacted and immediately set up restrictions, fearing the slightest trace of aura would leak out.
Such a heavy treasure, once exposed, would lead to a world-destroying battle for it.
"Suying, these are you... forget it, it's not important. Take them back quickly."
Bai Wuyai wanted to ask how she had obtained these two treasures, but he swallowed the words back down.
How they were obtained was no longer important. How to use them quickly to raise his cultivation was the key point.
"Gu Qing gave them to you, Father, so you should keep them." Bai Suying's smile held a hint of pride.
"Ah? This..."
"No."
Bai Wuyai shook his head, his expression grave as he said: "Suying, when a woman marries, she follows her husband. You cannot take treasures from your husband's family and give them to your maiden family."
"Father, what nonsense are you talking about? Gu Qing told me to give these to you, for you to cultivate properly." Bai Suying said reproachfully.
Hearing this, Bai Wuyai was shocked into a long silence.
Gifting Saint Artifact divine marrow so casually, was Gu Qing this wealthy? What kind of divine son-in-law had he found?
Bai Wuyai felt a sense of unreality, as if he were dreaming.
After all, this was a supreme treasure that even those in the Saint Realm dreamed of, something that could allow one to prove the Dao and become a god.
Back then, when he agreed to this marriage, he only felt that Gu Qing had a boundless future, and Bai Suying also possessed a special physique.
If the two became Dao Companions, complementing and helping each other, they would surely be able to go much further.
This way, he would not have failed the trust his deceased wife had placed in him.
But now, it seemed things were completely different from what he had envisioned.
Both he and Bai Suying were being carried by Gu Qing, with a boundless future and hope for long life and carefree existence.
"Sigh, what have I done to deserve this..."
After Bai Suying left, Bai Wuyai stroked his beautiful beard, feeling both gratified and regretful. If only his deceased wife were still alive.
He knew he was not a good father, having been competitive his whole life, fond of wine and lust.
Following him, Bai Suying had not suffered little hardship or injustice.
Yet now, the one enjoying the benefits was him, not his deceased wife, which made Bai Wuyai feel incomparably guilty and regretful.
Bai Suying did not want to attract attention, so she slightly disguised herself, concealing her divine, fairy-like appearance of a flourishing age, and headed straight for the Technique Hall of the Star God Palace to browse through cultivation insights.
What she lacked most now was comprehension of the Dao and its methods, as well as a broad perspective.
Bai Suying was like a sponge, frantically absorbing knowledge.
When she had read through most of the cultivation insights, she went to read the historical records of powerful experts.
Bai Suying was completely immersed in an ocean of knowledge, paying no attention to the outside world.
"Junior sister, let's go, Elder Lin Xuan is about to start a lecture."
"This, isn't this inappropriate, senior sister? Elder Lin Xuan and the Goddess are mortal enemies. If we go to listen, wouldn't that make us..."
"Don't hesitate. We're not trying to become his disciples. Listening to an elder's lecture is a benefit for us, and the elder can also gain contribution points. It's just a mutually agreeable transaction. Are you taking it so seriously?"
"Senior sister is right, I was overthinking it."
The two women left in a hurry. Bai Suying, who was nearby, looked thoughtful and hurriedly sent a message to her old father to ask about the situation with Lin Xuan and Zhi Meng.
After receiving a reply, Bai Suying had a sudden realization: "I knew it, that little bastard must have done something bad and still refused to admit it."
Gu Qing was smiling so wickedly; it turned out he had tricked and killed two of Lin Xuan's disciples.
But Gu Qing had even massacred the entire Medicine Peak, which made Bai Suying feel her heart tremble.
Gu Qing was so young, how did he dare to commit such an unprecedented and heroic act?
Was he truly not afraid of accidentally losing his own life?
"I'll have to have a serious talk with him when I get back." Bai Suying's beautiful eyes were filled with worry.
In her eyes, Gu Qing was still a hot-blooded young man who acted too impulsively.
What if one day he got hot-headed again and did something even bolder...
Bai Suying shook her head, unwilling to think further. She glanced in the direction the others had disappeared and followed.
Lin Xuan was still in the mood to give a lecture after his disciples died; there was probably some conspiracy afoot.
Bai Suying felt that Lin Xuan most likely wanted to take on disciples to accumulate connections and gain a certain level of status and power.
