Chapter 685: The story was great, but it's time to end.
Wu Zhu is indeed a rare person with exceptional conversational skills and an ability to evoke strong emotions.
No one present would disagree with this idea.
He spoke at length, beginning with the hardships and setbacks he faced in his early life of spiritual practice, then recounting how, within the vast Wu clan, despite being the third eldest brother, he was surpassed by his fourth, fifth, and sixth brothers, becoming the true "youngest among brothers," and so on, until just now…
The cause of everything.
However, he couldn't stand his brothers' ridicule, so he decided to venture into the secret realm in the desert on the border of the Twilight Immortal Demon Kingdom. As a result, he leaped to the Golden Immortal realm and became the most awesome of the six Wu brothers! "...Hehe, my cheap old man and those few superficial brothers don't know about this yet."
"But just wait and see!"
"Once they return from Ghost Sword Immortal Venerable, I'll make them see who's truly the elder brother and the eldest son!"
Wu Zhu became more and more excited as he spoke, and he drank heavily, to the point that Qingliu started to look at him strangely.
Is there really such a thing in the world?
Although Qingliu was somewhat skeptical of Wu Zhu's story, he had indeed genuinely gained cultivation.
After all, if this Third Young Master Wu had ascended to immortality, he couldn't possibly be unaware of it.
Unless, it happened within just a few hours!
But wouldn't that mean Wu Zhu transformed from a mortal to an immortal in such a short time, and even skipped the Ascension Stage and the Pseudo-Immortal Stage, directly achieving the cultivation of a Golden Immortal?! Is that even possible?
He also awakened the so-called "body of invincibility," which is destined for greatness... To be honest, this sounds like someone who's drunk and has a hysterical episode!
But it doesn't matter.
Qingliu was too lazy to think about what was true and what was false. He just treated it as listening to Wu Zhu tell a huge joke, which was a good laugh.
Anyway, he calculated the time and it was about right.
The Hunyuan Powder has been completely integrated into the meridians and Dao power of these five people.
Although Wu Zhu's arrival made him feel somewhat troubled, and the brown spirit snake hanging around Wu Zhu's neck looked unusual, Qingliu was already determined to go!
Although Qingliu didn't care at all.
The other four women listened intently, no matter how bizarre Wu Zhu's story was, because Wu Zhu kept mentioning the mysterious master who had done them a great favor.
That "Mr. Gu".
When Bai Feier heard Wu Zhugang mention this name, she already knew in her heart that it must be Young Master Gu Heng!
If it weren't for Gu Heng, she would have eaten it directly!
This Young Master Wu, transformed from a mortal to an immortal in an instant?
Skillful.
The four of them were the same; thanks to Young Master Gu's Primordial Soul Lamp, they directly had the small capital to venture into this Lesser Mystic Heaven Realm!
As people who had personally witnessed Gu Heng's extraordinary abilities, the four women believed the story wholeheartedly because of his reputation, even the most outlandish parts.
"Young Master Wu, may I ask where this Mr. Gu you mentioned is now?" Bai Feier already had a clue.
Where we go doesn't matter anymore, the important thing is to see Gu Heng first!
With Gu Heng's help, returning to the Xuan Tian Realm would be as easy as drinking water, wouldn't it?
Besides, they've been out for a while now. Bai Feier and Li Feichan don't really care, but Shu Ying and Shu Tao are still young. They've ended up in another world and have to follow them on their adventures, which is exhausting for them.
At the very least, the two sisters have to go back.
"Ah, I don't know about that. We parted ways at the edge of the desert. Well, I wouldn't ask where a master like him is going."
Wu Zhu waved his hand and said.
"I see. That's a bit of a pity."
Bai Feier looked regretful. Even he didn't know where to look next. But she had to at least try.
"Alright, I think we've reached the end of the story of Young Master Wu. Although I don't know if it's true or not, it's at least somewhat interesting."
"Gentlemen, it's time!"
Qingliu stood up.
At this moment, the refined and calm expression on his face was gone, replaced by a ruthless sneer.
With a wave of his hand, a dozen or so auras surged around the courtyard. His men filed in one after another, their gleaming swords aimed at the others at the table!
This sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard.
Wu Zhu was still gnawing on a chicken leg when he turned around and saw that the once lively courtyard was now filled with murderous intent. He asked in surprise, "Master Qingliu, what are you doing?"
The area was now completely surrounded. Bai Feier, Li Feichan, and the Shu sisters were caught off guard, but the murderous intent was directed at them!
This manor lord actually dared to attack them at this crucial moment?!
"Master Qingliu, what is the meaning of this?"
Bai Feier stared coldly at Qingliu, waiting for an explanation.
"What are you doing? Heh..."
Qingliu's smile grew even more sinister, and he then pointed at Bai Feier and the other women: "Young Master Wu, do you know who these four women are?"
"I don't know, you tell me."
Wu Zhu swallowed the meat in his mouth and picked up the wine glass to drink.
He doesn't know anything. He just arrived and has only eaten a few bites of meat and drunk a few sips of wine.
As a result, someone pointed a knife at him.
Wu Zhu wasn't too surprised, as he had the Wu clan as his backing. Unless the Qingliu Manor Master was out of his mind, he would never dare to lay a hand on him.
Therefore, Wu Zhu is not like Bai Feier and the others; she is as steady as an old dog.
Hearing Wu Zhu say he didn't know, and that his expression seemed genuinely clueless, Qing Liu laughed even more wildly. It turned out that Wu Zhu was completely unaware of the bounty on the Ancient Fallen Immortal Venerable!
"Hmph, those four are the people that Immortal Venerable Gu Yun specifically ordered to be captured!"
After saying that, Qingliu threw the wanted poster on the table.
"Although I don't know why you offended that Dragon Palace Master, since the opportunity is in front of me, I will definitely not let it go!"
Qingliu's tone was one of pity, tinged with a hint of sarcasm, as if he felt the outcome was already decided.
The four of them couldn't use even a fraction of their Dao power, and the toxicity of the Hunyuan Powder had already begun to take effect slowly. They would discover the abnormality once they circulated their cultivation techniques.
We were like fish on the chopping block, completely at his mercy! "How could this be?"
Looking at the portraits of the four women above, so lifelike and so beautiful that they were easily recognizable, the expressions of the four women changed drastically in an instant!
They've actually been targeted by a Celestial Venerable?!
The bounty notice clearly states that anyone who captures any of the individuals listed on the notice and sends them to the Dragon Palace will receive the following luxurious rewards!
What if I bring four at once?
How much should this reward be increased?
Feeling as if they were being ensnared in an invisible net, the four women's expressions were extremely tense.
Moreover, the most outrageous thing is that the Ancient Immortal Venerable even put a bounty on Gu Heng!
Both Wu Zhu and Bai Feier recognized the last one on the wanted poster; it was Gu Heng's face. "Pfft!"
When Wu Zhu saw Gu Heng's face on the wanted poster, he spat out the wine in his mouth.
