Chapter 258 The Millennium Snow Lotus Is Mine

The main ingredients that make it delicious are at least ordinary ingredients. These ingredients have been available since ancient times and can be made now.

There is a kind of 'intermittent grass' in Mount Emei that can be used as the main ingredient. Gu Zheng brought some of it out at the beginning, but if this raw material was used before, Gu Zheng would be a little distressed. After all, the only main ingredient suitable for grass-returning cultivation is currently only cut grass, and the stock of Emei pie is very small. There is only a small amount. If the cut grass is used up, it will mean that this kind of grass-returning repair will not be possible in the future.

But things are different now. There is no need to worry about Gu Zheng at all. The Intermittent Grass is gone. The Fairy Finger discovered this time can be used as a substitute. Its main effect is in healing, and there are as many as twenty-three plants in number. Much higher than the breakgrass they had.

It can be said that this is an unexpected gain and a great gain.

However, the most precious among these ingredients are the four milk ginseng. Their value is no less than the other two ordinary ingredients.

It didn't take long for Elder Wuyou to pick all the treasures on the cliff and hand them over to Gu Zheng.

"It's really a blessing in disguise. Liu Qingyun created an avalanche to cut off our pursuit of him. As a result, he left all these treasures that are extremely rare to appear on weekdays to us."

Gu Zheng put away the ingredients and felt very happy.

"Yes, he was in a hurry to run away and didn't dare to look back. Otherwise, if he discovered these things, we wouldn't be able to get them!"

Elder Wuyou smiled.

Gu Zheng snorted coldly: "So what if he finds out! Let's not say whether he recognizes these things. Even if he does, he doesn't dare to come and pick them. The old man in white hates him with all his heart. He is the first person he wants to kill. , and he retaliates against us. With us and the old man in white joining forces, there is no way he can escape! "

"Yes. We will meet soon. When I see Liu Qingyun again, I will make him look good!" Elder Wuyou said bitterly.

Liu Qingyun is not that stupid. There is a reason why he dared to fall out with Emei, and these reasons are already known to Gu Zheng and others. In addition to feeling that Gu Zheng and others will die in the hands of the immortal corpse, he also has another very important reason. The important reason is that he no longer needs Gu Zheng and others to lead the way!

Before Liu Qingyun came over with the old man in white, Elder Wuyou had already discovered that a group of people had appeared on the snowy mountain at the limit of vision.

People who will appear in the depths of the Tianshan Mountains at this time will have no other possibility except the Nangong Sect and Taiji Sect who take different routes. Liu Qingyun must have discovered this situation before he turned against the Emei Sect, so he no longer had any worries.

For Liu Qingyun, as long as he finds the other two sects, he can also find the Millennium Tianshan Snow Lotus.

This time, the grass is delicious. The technique is the same as Bingling Delicious. It is also stewed.

However, before stewing, some ingredients need to be specially treated to remove the bitter taste.

In addition to the different uses of food cultivation methods, they also have one thing in common: they taste good.

Gu Zheng had done the Zeng Yuan Food Cultivation in his sect before, but the portion he made that time was very large and there were a lot of auxiliary ingredients incorporated into it. In the process of blending various auxiliary ingredients with each other, the bitterness is indeed removed, but the taste of the ingredients themselves is also reduced.

Therefore, in terms of taste, the last Zengyuan Food Cultivator did not have any amazing feeling. It just made people feel delicious, appetizing, and able to eat. After all, some of the materials are genuine medicinal materials. It is not easy to retain the medicinal effects of the medicinal materials and still make them taste good.

As for the delicious ice cream I made last time, due to the different production methods and all the ingredients themselves are authentic ingredients, the delicious taste brings out the extremely fragrant shape, so it is very delicious.

Although the grass-returning food repair made this time is still in the category of delicious, due to the different raw materials, it cannot induce the extremely fragrant shape, and the taste is also better than the previous ice spiritual food repair.

Caohuishishiu requires one main ingredient and three auxiliary ingredients. The main ingredient is Corydalis, which is an authentic medicinal material. It must be steamed before use to remove the bitter taste.

As for the other two auxiliary ingredients, Luhu Yisheng and Shenjincao are also stocks in Mount Emei. They are also medicinal materials. One needs to be baked, and the other needs to be blanched to remove the bitter taste. The only ingredient without bitter taste is the fairy chicken that was raised in the ancient space.

Steam what should be steamed, bake what should be baked, blanch what should be blanched, and slaughter what should be slaughtered. After all these ingredients were prepared, Gu Zheng put them into the pot in order.

The Fire Control Technique and the Water Control Technique were used at the same time. The water in the pot boiled quickly, and the scent of the medicine wafted out of it.

It is said to be a medicinal scent, but it is not reminiscent of the smell in a pharmacy. This medicinal scent is very special. When you first smell it, you feel it is elegant, and slowly you can smell the meaty aroma, which makes your mouth full of excitement. saliva.

"It's been a long time since I've seen it. It's the first time I smell the aroma of medicine that makes me drool."

"Yes, the big pot that the master made in the door just had a fragrance that made people want to eat it, but it didn't have such a strange medicinal fragrance."

"I don't know how long it will take to get better. The smell makes me hungry."

Although the fragrance has only been wafting for more than ten minutes, Elder Wuyou and the three elders already feel as if they have been waiting for a whole day.

"alright!"

The sound of ancient contention sounded at the right time.

After opening the lid of the pot, there was a grate in the pot, and a bowl of custard was steamed on top of the grate.

First he took out the custard and gave it to Elder Wuyou, then Gu Zheng filled two bowls of soup and meat into the pot, and then put the lid back on the pot under Elder Wuyou's eager gaze.

Elder Wuchou stammered: "Zhang, Zhan, where is yours?"

Gu Zheng smiled: "Although it is delicious, it is also medicine! I was not injured, and the elder's injury was fine after taking the elixir, so we don't need to take medicine. You two should eat it while it's hot. Bar!"

This was the first time that Gu Zheng made grass and it tasted delicious. In fact, he really wanted to try it, but he had to be sparing with ingredients, so he only served a bowl each to Elder Wuchou and Gu An.

"Master, what's in the pot?"

Gu An asked curiously.

"What's in this pot is the same as what you drink. One snapweed can make five portions. I need to stew the remaining three portions in the pot for emergencies."

After stewing it for a while, the grass with meat and soup will still be delicious, and it will become like the original Zengyuan Shixiu, which is just a bowl of thick soup. Although thick soup will reduce the taste, it can be stored for a longer time and is more convenient to consume. As for the medicinal effects, they are actually the same. Stewing them will just make the ingredients turn into dregs.

It's just like the pills made by the master of traditional Chinese medicine, but the form is different, the raw materials used and the ultimate purpose are the same.

"Master, you can eat this bowl of custard!"

Elder Wuyou was originally envious of the other two people who could drink soup and meat, but after thinking about it carefully, his heart suddenly felt warm. The leader stewed a bowl of egg custard and gave it to him. This was not a regret for taking care of him who could not eat meat or soup. , what is it?

"You go ahead and eat it, I can't spare my hands yet. There's no shortage of eggs. I think it's easy to eat. However, whether it's egg custard or food supplements, this is my first time making them. You have to tell me how you feel after eating them. OK!"

The three of them nodded their heads immediately after hearing Gu Zheng's words.

The egg custard made by Gu Zheng is very simple. Apart from salt, there are no other seasonings in it.

However, the quality of the eggs was mediocre, so Gu Zheng used the Fire Control Technique to optimize the heat, and used the Water Control Technique to squeeze out all the air in the eggs, so that the bowl of custard gave people a jelly-like feeling.

"Master, to be honest, I used to feel like vomiting when I smelled eggs. I've also eaten custard. Although it doesn't have the fishy smell of raw eggs, I don't like the taste of custard. But the custard made by the chef is very special, the color is so uniform that it feels unreal! The egg flavor is very strong, but it doesn’t disgust me at all, but I eagerly want to eat it!”

Elder Wuyou first took a deep breath while holding the custard, then scooped out a piece with a spoon and put it into his mouth.

"tasty!"

After a mouthful of custard, Elder Wuyou said two words first, but he seemed to think it was too general and immediately started to add more.

"Delicate and mellow, besides that, I think the phrase 'it's as smooth as silk at this moment' shouldn't be used on chocolate, but should be used on this bowl of custard!"

"Haha..." Gu Zheng laughed.

Unexpectedly, the strict elder actually borrowed the advertising slogan, which is enough to show that this bowl of custard is still very successful.

The Great Elder had already commented on it, and Elder Wuchou also quickly tasted the delicious grass. He took a delicious sip of the soup and then ate another piece of chicken.

"Master, I'm not as good at talking as my senior brother. I just feel that this soup is very delicious. It's not bitter at all. The chicken is stewed just right. The texture is not hard, but it's not too soft and chewy. The medicinal aroma is already in the taste. , give it a unique flavor!”

After listening to Elder Wuchou's words, Gu Zheng smiled and nodded, and then looked at Gu An.

Gu An was half lying down. When the two elders were tasting the delicious food, he didn't even remember that he swallowed several times before it was finally his turn.

Instead of drinking the soup first like Elder Wuchou did, Gu An ate a piece of chicken first.

"Um……"

Gu An, who was eating meat in his mouth and seemed to have forgotten the pain, narrowed his eyes and let out a satisfied nasal sound.

Because Elder Wuchou's injuries were relatively minor, the grass was still delicious after taking it, and beads of sweat were just beginning to appear on his forehead. But looking back at Gu An, after eating a piece of chicken, there were beads of sweat on his forehead, and his face was as red as if he had drunk wine. Gu An, who was immersed in the delicious food, did not notice it at all. This was grass but delicious. Effective performance, the more serious the injury, the more obvious this external abnormality will be.

"Master, let me tell you how you feel after drinking the soup, right?"

After finally swallowing the chicken in his mouth, Gu An spoke seriously.

"Can."

Gu Zheng nodded, feeling happy in his heart.

The first mouthful of soup was taken down, but the taste of the soup was so delicious that greedy Gu An wanted to take another sip before commenting.

However, what Gu An never expected was that he had finished the second mouthful of soup, but his mouth only dared to hold the edge of the bowl and did not dare to let go.

In fact, as soon as the chicken was swallowed into the stomach, a warm current immediately rushed towards the injured area. At that time, Gu An could clearly feel that his injured area was beating slightly.

After the first sip of the soup entered his stomach, the power of the warm current became more powerful, so that Gu An felt comfortable all over and the wound area beat more intensely.

So far, Gu An still didn't think much about it.

However, when the second sip of soup turned into warm current and reached the wound, it not only caused the wound to beat more frequently, but also gave rise to a numb and itchy feeling. This feeling appeared so fast and violent that it made Gu An felt that if he didn't keep pouting and holding the edge of the bowl, he might not be able to help but make a strange sound. This feeling of the body being rapidly repaired was much more comfortable than a massage or something.

Looking at Gu An's uncomfortable look, Gu Zheng laughed, and the two elders also laughed.

"Drink the soup well!"

Elder Wuyou, who couldn't help laughing, helped Gu An up from his half-lying body, and used his internal strength to act on his wounds to help him offset the strange feeling.

Gu An hurried to drink the soup, and naturally gave up on the matter of commenting.

"Great!"

After taking the grass and delicious food, Gu An, who originally needed Elder Wuyou to support him, jumped up and performed a set of boxing to stretch his muscles and bones. His body miraculously returned to normal.

In the following time, Gu Zheng and others did not encounter any danger on the road.

Although the time for rushing was still urgent, this time Gu Zheng still got some food along the way. When they passed a small spruce forest, they actually found a nest of inferior quality musk deer mushrooms.

Finally, the day before the thousand-year-old Tianshan snow lotus really matured, Gu Zheng and others arrived at their destination.

Generally speaking, snow lotus grows among the gravels below the snow line of the mountains, but the location of the thousand-year-old Tianshan snow lotus is on the top of the mountain. Although the snow here is not too thick, it has already covered the calves.

When Gu Zheng and others arrived, there were already more than thirty people on the top of the mountain.

The thirty or so people were not all from the Nangong School and Taiji Sect. These two sects were also followed by other sects, and the people of the two sects could not get rid of the others.

Seeing Gu Zheng and others coming up, the people who arrived first on the top of the mountain were not as hostile as imagined.

The two elders went over to greet the acquaintances, while Gu Zheng walked towards the thousand-year-old snow lotus.

There was only one thousand-year-old snow lotus here, so there was no need to worry about making a mistake. Moreover, with the thousand-year-old Tianshan snow lotus as the center, a large circle with a radius of 20 meters was drawn on the ground!

Gu Zheng understood that these were the people who arrived first. In order to prevent the cordon drawn by extremists, he would not cross the line to watch.

The thousand-year-old snow lotus is not very similar to the ordinary Tianshan snow lotus. It is like a white crystal sculpture, emitting a dazzling luster under the sun. The part that should be the pistil grows a crystal clear snow lotus seed like a yellow gem! Overall, this Tianshan snow lotus is not big, just the size of a sea bowl.

"How can you, a disciple of the Emei Sect, be so unruly?"

Although Gu Zheng did not cross the line, there was still an old woman with gray hair who walked towards him.

"What rules?"

Gu Zheng frowned slightly. The other person's clothes were embroidered with a Tai Chi diagram, and the overall color of the clothes was black, which indicated that this person's identity was an elder of the Tai Chi Sect.

After becoming the head of the Emei Sect, the two elders Wuyou and Wuchou had told Gu Zheng about the cultivator sect many times, so Gu Zheng still had some understanding of the Tai Chi Sect.

"Why, are you not convinced?"

The old woman did not say anything about the rules, but instead stabbed the phoenix-headed staff in her hand, which was as tall as a person, on the ground, staring at Gu Zheng's frown.

Indeed, there was dissatisfaction in Gu Zheng's frown. If there really was a so-called rule, when he showed his intention to get close to Xue Lian, someone should have warned him, instead of looking for trouble like now. He had been watching for a long time, but a figure of elder level appeared to scold him and accuse him. What else could this be?

What's more, Gu Zheng had already locked a name for the identity of the old woman.

This person was 99% likely to be Fang Xuemei, the great elder of Taiji Sect. Fang Xuemei did not have a good reputation among the practitioners. She was aggressive and strong, and liked to bully the weak. However, her cultivation was already in the late fifth level, so many practitioners dared not speak out against her.

Gu Zheng was not a flamboyant person. If his identity was just a disciple of Emei Sect, he would choose to tolerate such a situation even if he was unhappy. However, he is the head of Emei Sect, and he represents the entire Emei, so he showed his dissatisfaction on his face.

"If you can explain the reason, I will accept it. If you can't explain the reason, why should I accept it?" Gu Zheng frowned and asked back.

"As a junior, when the elders asked questions, you didn't bow or use honorifics. What else do you have to be dissatisfied with? Is this how Wuyou and Wuchou taught you?"

As if she hadn't been talked back to for many years, Fang Xuemei laughed in anger.

"Wuyou and Wuchou? They can't teach me! As the head of Emei Sect, why should I bow and use honorifics to you?"

The head of the sect is a very important position. Even though Fang Xuemei is an elder of the same generation as the head of the sect in Taiji Sect, Taiji Sect and Emei are just casual friends, so Gu Zheng really doesn't need to pay any respect to her.

"Are you the head of Emei Sect?" Fang Xuemei widened her eyes.

"Yes, Gu Zheng is the new leader of our Emei Sect!"

Wuyou and his companions also walked over here, and some people who were watching the fun followed them.

"Wuyou, your Emei Sect is really great, but I don't know how long this new leader can be in charge of Emei this time?"

Fang Xuemei had a strange expression, and the thing she was referring to was naturally the incidents that happened to the previous leaders of the Emei Sect.

"Hahahaha..."

The other sects who were watching also laughed. This laughter may not be entirely sarcastic, but it sounded very harsh to the ears of several people in the Emei Sect.

"Don't bother with you, our leader will definitely be as blessed as the East China Sea and as long-lived as the evergreen pines in the South Mountain!"

Elder Wuchou rolled his eyes at Fang Xuemei.

"Humph."

Fang Xuemei sneered, then turned to look at Gu Zheng, and said something sinister: "Young people are very confident, keep it up!"

"Don't worry, I will keep it up. I have always been very confident!"

Gu Zheng said lightly, and Fang Xuemei, who had already turned around to leave, paused and snorted: "Sharp teeth and sharp mouth."

Fang Xuemei continued to move forward, Gu Zheng did not argue with her anymore, and the nearby spectators gradually dispersed.

There are many places to rest on the top of the mountain, and Gu Zheng and others also found a deserted place to settle down.

"The leader must be careful. This Fang Xuemei holds a grudge the most. Today you have disgraced her in public. Be careful that she will find an opportunity to retaliate."

Elder Wuyou looked worried. This Fang Xuemei is a really narrow-minded person. Many people she cares about will suffer misfortune. Although she may be concerned about the identity of the leader of Gu Zheng and dare not act too recklessly, it is always right to be careful. .

Killing the leader of a sect means that the two sides will form an irreducible feud. Even if the Emei sect is left alone, it is after all a large sect that has existed since the era of prosperous law. It is also a lineage of Shushan. It really makes them desperate. Other sects also have a hard time with it. The damage to both sides is minor, and if not done well, they will all be doomed.

"It's okay. I also hold a grudge. If she wants revenge, she'd better kill me directly, otherwise I'll let her know how to write regrets!"

Gu Zheng smiled coldly.

"If Fang Xuemei dares to harm the leader, I will not let her go even if I die!"

Elder Wuchou gritted his teeth, and although Gu An did not speak, his squinted eyes were staring in the direction of Fang Xuemei.

"Okay, let's not talk about Fang Xuemei. Let's talk about it. You all know the situation." Gu Zheng changed the topic.

When they first reached the top of the mountain, the two elders Wuyou and Wuyou went to say hello to acquaintances, but they were actually looking for information.

Among the people on the top of the mountain, there was no Deng Tianyang or Liu Qingyun, which Gu Zheng had already seen. As for the whereabouts of these two people, the news received by Elder Wuyou is that these two people were still there before they arrived, but they don't know where they are now.

There were originally many more people who followed the Nangong Sect and the Bagua Sect than those who followed the Taishan Sect. But on the way here, they also encountered some situations, which resulted in a lot of casualties. In the end, only the people in front of them were left. Among the dangers they encountered, in addition to the White Fox King who was hunted down by the Taishan Sect, there was also a sinister and despicable old man who repeatedly plotted against them.

The White Fox King was not dead. He had attacked the people on the top of the mountain two days ago. His target was obvious. He was also targeting the Millennium Snow Lotus.

As for the old man dressed in black, there was a sneak attack on the top of the mountain last night, and he often fought alone, just for fun.

However, the old man in black is different from the Fox King. He seems to want to get the mature Tianshan Snow Lotus Seeds. For the immature Millennium Snow Lotus, he is not like the White Fox King who shows great intention to get it.

Moreover, Tianshan snow lotus seeds mature earlier than expected, and they actually matured this afternoon!

These people who arrived at the top of the mountain first have already made rules. After the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus matures, everyone can compete for it based on their abilities, and they can fight each other during the competition. However, after all, everyone is from a well-known and decent family. Once someone wins the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus, there must be no more fighting.

Regarding this point, Gu Zheng and others also have a clear mind. This is just a talk! This time, the Millennium Snow Lotus is actually a hot potato. If you can get it, it doesn't mean you have the ability to protect it.

"So, on the top of this mountain, the people who came with the Nangong Sect and Tai Chi Sect are considered a big group. But Deng Tianyang and Liu Qingyun had difficulty integrating into it, so they left temporarily."

After listening to Elder Wuyou's story, Gu Zheng spoke slowly.

"This is very possible! After all, we can't blend in, and there are enemies in the dark, so we might as well avoid it for the time being." Elder Wuyou said.

"Divided strength leads to dispersion. It's not like Liu Qingyun has never experienced such disadvantages. Aren't they afraid that the enemy in the dark will get rid of them first?" Elder Wuchou asked.

"I don't know if Liu Qingyun is afraid, but Deng Tianyang is definitely not afraid. If he was, he wouldn't have left secretly in the first place. Moreover, Deng Tianyang was not alone. He took a total of four people with him when he left. One of the four people was a cultivator. Because he is in the middle of the fifth floor Elder, the cultivation of the other three people has also reached the fourth level. Deng Tianyang's group of five people, plus Liu Qingyun who is in the middle of the fifth level, their overall strength far exceeds ours. Even if they are in danger, under normal circumstances. I can cope with everything.”

Gu Zheng paused, with a hint of hatred in his eyes: "Maybe their departure has something to do with us. Standing on the top of this mountain, they could see us approaching very early. Liu Qingyun's plan failed. He knew that we wouldn't I will let him go easily. In this case, it is good to hide. "

Regarding Gu Zheng's speculation, Elder Wuyou and others nodded in agreement, and no one among the four spoke for the time being.

On the surface, he was calm, but Gu Zheng was looking at the Tianshan Snow Lotus in the distance, and his heart was full of thoughts.

When the Millennium Snow Lotus is about to mature, everyone will inevitably gather around the circle drawn on the ground. Once the Millennium Snow Lotus matures, the fight will begin immediately, and the fight will be the most dangerous time.

The rules set by these people on the mountain for snatching did not exceed Elder Wuyou's previous predictions, otherwise the weak Emei Sect would not have had to participate at all.

Although the rules are just for the occasion, at least they will still play their due role on the top of the mountain after grabbing the thousand-year snow lotus, in full view of the public. This is also beneficial to all participants. .

Some sects are just here to try their luck, but the Emei sect is not entirely like this. Elder Wuyou practices an ancient martial art. This ancient martial art will be a very advantageous means when fighting for the thousand-year snow lotus. Therefore, in the plan made by the two, Elder Wuyou is the main force in the Emei Sect's fight for the Millennium Snow Lotus. The main responsibility of the others is to protect his safety when he fights for it.

Their plan is good, but they must also consider the current environment. Elder Wuyou has ancient martial arts, but what about those sects that were also passed down from the era of prosperous law?

It is possible that these sects have some kind of ancient martial arts or fairy weapons that can take advantage of this competition. This is entirely possible. The two elders cannot have thought of this, but They have no way to change the status quo.

"Two elders, I have to make some changes to your original plan."

Gu Zheng spoke up, breaking the calm.

"Master, please tell me."

Gu Zheng said that he wanted to change the plan, and the two elders who were originally worried suddenly looked very excited. Although Gu Zheng's cultivation level was not high, both elders felt that there seemed to be unlimited possibilities in him.

"To snatch the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus, Elder Wuyou is the second main force, and I am the first main force. Your first task is to protect me, and the second is to fight for the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus. As long as I can safely get within five meters of the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus, and at this time , the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus is not held by anyone, so this time the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus is ours, but if I am targeted and cannot get close to the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus, then it will be up to Elder Wuyou."

In the ancient space of ancient times, some small things can be collected directly, and the tool spirit can do it, but when they are collected in the primitive space, they must be within a certain distance, and the things being collected cannot be the ones held by others. kind.

After hearing Gu Zheng's words, Elder Wuyou and the others' heads were nodding like chickens pecking at rice. As expected, the leader was shocked again.

It's morning now, and the ripening time of Tianshan snow lotus seeds is expected to be within one o'clock in the afternoon.

As time went by, the atmosphere on the top of the mountain became more and more solemn. Around noon, the practitioners who were originally scattered all came to the outside of the circle to prepare. During this period of time, no danger occurred. Neither the Fox Demon King nor the old man in black appeared, which everyone was on guard against.

Time continued to pass, and when it entered one o'clock, the Millennium Snow Lotus began to undergo very obvious changes.

The whole snow lotus plant was shaking gently, and the light on the snow lotus seeds flickered on and off, like breathing, attracting the cold current in the air.

A refreshing cold fragrance emerged from the snow lotus seeds, which became stronger and stronger as time went by, and the color of the snow lotus seeds also became heavier and heavier.

"Crack."

Gu Zheng's teeth made a sound. When the Tianshan snow lotus seeds were about to mature in ten minutes, he saw Deng Tianyang and Liu Qingyun.

"hey-hey."

Following Deng Tianyang, Liu Qingyun smiled at the angry Emei faction members.

Even though Gu Zheng and others were filled with hatred, they didn't say anything. The Tianshan Snow Lotus Seeds were about to mature and this was not the time for a conflict.

Among the people led by Deng Tianyang, four disciples with cultivation levels on the fourth level walked straight to the circle and stood near the Emei Sect.

As for Du Feng, another elder of the Taishan Sect, he and Liu Qingyun stood far away from the circle, talking quietly about something.

Deng Tianyang, who followed his disciples to the outside of the circle, came to the Emei Sect alone.

"Could you please take a moment to talk?"

If there had not been the giant wolf night attack, even if he knew that Gu Zheng was the head of the Emei Sect, Deng Tianyang would still go to Elder Wuyou when he needed to discuss something. However, after experiencing the night attack by the giant wolf, Gu Zheng left a deep impression on Deng Tianyang. Therefore, in Deng Tianyang's heart, although Gu Zheng was a young man, he could already represent the entire Emei.

"Okay." Gu Zheng nodded.

"Master, I'm with you."

Elder Wuchou stood next to Gu Zheng.

"Need not."

Gu Zheng smiled slightly and followed Deng Tianyang to the side.

"The current situation is that other sects that followed Bagua Sect and Nangong Sect have given up on competing for Tianshan Snow Lotus Seeds and instead assisted the other two sects. The reason is very simple. Even if these sects have obtained Tianshan Snow Lotus Seeds, I’m afraid I can’t leave Tianshan safely, so I might as well become an assistant in exchange for the benefits provided by the sect. Master Gu, do you understand what I mean?”

Deng Tianyang's tone was very tactful, and he had a smile on his face, but the current situation he mentioned made people feel helpless and sighing.

"The decline of Emei is an indisputable fact. Elder Deng's proposal is indeed a very realistic choice. However, the Emei Sect is still a sect inherited from the era of prosperous Dharma. It naturally has its own glory and dignity, so I, the Emei Sect, will not assist any sect, even if I come back empty-handed this time!”

Gu Zheng spoke slowly but seriously.

Deng Tianyang was stunned and stared at Gu Zheng for three seconds with his eyes wide open before shaking his head.

"I thought you were a smart guy, but it seems you are worse than Wuyou and the others. Your wish is good, but the so-called glory and dignity of Emei Sect has been covered with dust, and this dust cannot be blown away so easily. Be the auxiliary of Taishan Sect! If I can get the Tianshan Snow Lotus Seed, Emei Sect will not lose out in terms of benefits, and will definitely get more than other auxiliary sects!"

"Thank you, Elder Deng, for your kindness. Emei Sect really doesn't need it."

Deng Tianyang's expression was originally calm, but after being rejected by Gu Zheng in succession, his face was a little embarrassed.

I went to bed after typing. There was an error in the update. Xiaoyu has changed it. I'm sorry everyone!
