Chapter 509: Chapter 75 Saint fighting_2

"Master, they are all monks, and this time I’m going to see Xiao Yunyi. You are also a celibate, why do you always hold on to these mundane matters?"

"I am naturally celibate, but you are not. Don’t think I don’t know what you and Yu Hua did in the Immortal Land."

Li Yunshang teased, "Besides, as your master, I never think these things are impossible, it just depends on who it’s with. I’m not interested in others’ marriages, but I care deeply about your matters. This is all out of love for you."

Gu Wen did not respond further, knowing that it was useless to explain when he could not surpass this ’rebellious master’.

It was purely Li Yunshang wanting to tease him, the reason didn’t matter. Just like adults teasing children, they wanted to see the child’s reaction.

Gu Wen was not a little kid, so naturally, he wouldn’t play along.

This time the competition was quite rewarding, allowing Gu Wen to gain Human Immortal power, capable of effectively harming Saints. More importantly, he gained a deeper understanding of his own strength and recognized the gap between himself and others of the same level.

After a moment of silence, Li Yunshang asked, "Do you really have to intervene in Yu Hua’s matter?"

Power is always fought for with fists, regardless of the relationship. Many times, adults learn to respect children when those children can knock them to the ground.

The relationship between Li Yunshang and Gu Wen wasn’t that hostile, but as master and disciple, some conflicts were inevitable.

The recent competition had caused her to change slightly, knowing that one day she wouldn’t be able to stop Gu Wen.

"I want to know how you plan to resurrect Yu Hua."

Gu Wen did not directly answer, but that was as good as acknowledging it.

Li Yunshang responded, "Actually, I can kill my way in now and bring out Yu Hua’s three souls and seven spirits, but I cannot make her exist for long. Because Yu Hua hasn’t attained immortality and transcendence, she is still bound by heaven’s laws."

"I need to make sure she can achieve results in a short time after stepping out of Wu Wang City, but achieving immortality is extremely difficult."

Gu Wen asked, "Does this require a direct confrontation with the Earth Saint?"

"Partly, about one-tenth. The Great Saint is vast, so vast that it is difficult for Him to mobilize all His power."

At this point, Li Yunshang couldn’t help but sigh, as this was the one thing that made her feel powerless.

She could be unmatched in the world, yet she couldn’t make others unmatched in the world.

Gu Wen couldn’t either, he couldn’t even help someone to the Golden Core Stage now.

Chi Yu Zi and others had the ability themselves, and Gu Wen merely provided them a better platform to stand higher and see further.

Moreover, what Gu Wen gave to Chi Yu Zi was almost a shared Great Tao, yet even Chi Yu Zi didn’t ascend instantly but struggled on the path to immortality.

Li Yunshang said, "You should have noticed too, I’m planning to make Yu Hua’s body become a Saint and enter the Taoist Realm, then take a chance if necessary. But there’s no rush now, we have ten thousand years."

"Five thousand years?"

Gu Wen seemed to not hear clearly, Li Yunshang raised an eyebrow and said, "You don’t need to be so clever."

Wu Wang City doesn’t contain life and death, but people’s consciousness will be worn down by time.

"Looks like not even five thousand years, about three thousand years."

"..."

Li Yunshang was helpless. Having such an outstanding disciple was not always a good thing.

"Now it’s your turn to answer, do you insist on intervening?"

Yu Hua was not guaranteed to be saved, and the more Gu Wen adhered to it, the more likely he would fall into the demon’s path, which was what she feared.

Li Yunshang’s words became sharper, with a hint of provocation.

"Cultivate to be a Saint, just to save her? You can intervene, but I hope you are prepared for the worst."

Gu Wen said calmly, "A scholar dies for a confidant, repaying even a drop of kindness with a spring. I have always prepared for the worst, never measuring the benefits and harms."

"Master, saving you was the same."

"..."

Li Yunshang didn’t know how many times she had fallen silent and sighed because of Gu Wen, feeling utterly helpless.

"Do as you please, if you really can’t hold back, you can seek out Chi Yu Zi first, she won’t resist, but don’t flirt around outside."

Now it was Gu Wen’s turn to sigh. Whenever he couldn’t argue, she would shift the topic to this.

He had never craved beauty, otherwise, he would have played with countless oirans and clean prostitutes when at Dragon Bridge. After cultivating, he could discern his true self and practice self-control, having no desire for beauty.

Unless it was his nature to like it, Gu Wen never restrained his nature.

As for his master, she loved to tease him with these kinds of questions since their time in the Immortal Land, often asking him whether he liked Yu Hua more or Chi Yu Zi more.

Or if his master and Yu Hua fell into the river, who would he save first?

Did he have any old loves in the past?

In fact, at that time, he never had such thoughts because Li Yunshang’s life-and-death crisis was in front, allowing no room for any slack.

Later, the problem was resolved, and only the Immortal Land remained.

Should he slack off now?

No!

He couldn’t slack off the slightest bit; he was cultivating every moment, struggling every moment, breaking free from all the constraints binding him.

At the Dragon Bridge, it was the Zhao family; beyond Bianjing, it was the gods and great powers in the sky; beyond the Immortal Land, it was the Heaven and Earth Two Saints.

Gu Wen would seek complete transcendence until his last breath, or until his success in creation.

Li Yunshang continued, "Or that little nun, she doesn’t seem to resist much either, and there’s also the girl from the Qianfeng Sect. Why not all together? Aren’t you quite domineering?"

Gu Wen closed his eyes, nourishing the mind, without any response.

Suddenly, Li Yunshang’s voice came again, mixed with the gale of the Nine Heavens.

"As your master, I’m also very fortunate that you’re my disciple."

There was no response to this; when Li Yunshang turned around, she found that Gu Wen had completely fallen asleep.

"Rebellious disciple."

——————————

Three days later.

Gu Wen woke up from his coma, and Chi Yu Zi’s face immediately leaned in, her beautiful eyes fluttering, still munching on a rice cake.

She said with a face of relief:

"You’re awake. It seems there’s no need to use the method Qingcang Immortal mentioned."

"What method?"

"Qingcang Immortal said that you are unaware of the immensity of heaven and earth, and your Taoist Body was shattered from the beating. You need Yin and Yang Balance. The best would be a woman’s Primordial Yin with deep cultivation; I just happen to have the Primordial Yin."

"You’re quite generous, but I hope you don’t have to be this generous in this regard."

Gu Wen pushed Chi Yu Zi aside, and she bristled at his actions.

"It sounds like I’m desperate for you!"

Chi Yu Zi said righteously, "I know the severity of situations; human life is greater than the sky. If it can save your life, nothing else is important. Should I act coy and ask you if you’ll be responsible?"

At the end of her speech, she showed a look of disdain.

"Instead, it’s you who act like a virtuous woman, caring about such things."

It was apparent that Chi Yu Zi indeed didn’t think there was anything to be shy about; as long as the reason was justifiable, she could have a clear conscience.

Gu Wen was amused by her seriousness; Chi Yu Zi truly believed her master’s nonsense.

He asked, "What if it were someone else? Could you still be a Bodhisattva?"

Chi Yu Zi answered without hesitation, "Go die, the further the better; if not, I’ll send him on his way."

Gu Wen smiled warmly; Chi Yu Zi’s candidness always made people feel relaxed.

There were no convolutions, and she could genuinely act without reservations.

He patted the bed and said, "Then come up."

"For what?"

Chi Yu Zi showed a vigilant look and took a small step back.

"Dual cultivation, coupling, sharing a bed."

Gu Wen’s direct words made Chi Yu Zi’s ears gradually turn red, and she slowly retreated, but her mouth didn’t stop.

"You’re a virgin acting like a playboy, such bluff and bluster, inviting ridicule!"

"Who said I’m still a virgin?"

"I could tell back when we were by the Luo River." Chi Yu Zi said confidently, "At that time, your cultivation wasn’t higher than mine; I could see clearly."

Now she couldn’t tell if Gu Wen was still a virgin, but she could back then. After that, they were constantly being hunted, hiding everywhere. How could Gu Wen have lost his virginity?

Could it be...

Chi Yu Zi’s face suddenly flushed, then she moved closer and whispered, "Did you and Sister Yu Hua already..."

"Take a guess."

"Definitely!"
