Chapter 316 An Encounter
Several days later, Gu Qianbei brought Yang Guo to Kunlun.
On their journey, the two frequently encountered disciples from the six major sects, and the air was thick with tension.
Clearly, a major battle is about to begin.
"Master, it's really impressive that the Ming Cult can offend all six major sects at the same time."
"Having enemies all over the world, there's no one else like him."
Yang Guo complained.
There are three main reasons why the Ming Cult has been able to reach this level.
First, the lack of a leader for a long time has made it impossible to control the disciples. Although the current acting leader, Yang Xiao, is quite capable, he is too arrogant and unpopular, and his constant focus on Emei has offended many people.
Secondly, there was Xie Xun, a villain who killed people everywhere. Although there were reasons for it, indiscriminate killing of innocent people is still indiscriminate killing of innocent people, and there's nothing more to say about it.
Thirdly, there have been people constantly fueling the flames, making the Ming Cult's infamy grow ever stronger.
"Master, what are we planning to do on our trip to Bright Peak?"
Help the Ming Cult fight against the six major sects?
I don't think so.
That's incredibly brave!
Yang Guo exclaimed in amazement.
Gu Qianbei smiled mysteriously and said, "Guo'er, are you interested in becoming the leader of the Ming Cult?"
"Huh? What? Me?"
Yang Guo pointed to his nose with his index finger, looking surprised.
"Yes, it's you."
"Master, you yourself said that the Ming Cult has many masters, how can I become the leader of the Ming Cult?"
Moreover, the Ming Cult is in dire straits now. Even if I were to become the leader of the Ming Cult, wouldn't that be courting death?
Most importantly, I am your disciple, Master. How can I switch to another sect?
Yang Guo refused outright.
Although he admired the Ming Cult, that was not a reason for him to join it.
What he really wanted to do was become Gu Qianbei's apprentice.
"I see. I thought you'd be interested, but since you're not, then forget it."
However, if you're worried about a conflict between joining the Ming Cult and becoming my disciple, you don't need to.
Master, I'm not such a petty person.
Even if you join the Ming Cult, you will still be my disciple.
The Ming Cult has all sorts of people and doesn't care about lineage.
Come to think of it, the Ming Cult doesn't seem to have any martial arts training for its disciples; they all come in with martial arts skills already in hand.
The Ming Cult, though described as a martial arts sect, was more like a righteous army organization that gathered together people of insight from all over the land.
Gu Qianbei said softly.
"Master, you speak so highly of the Ming Cult. We've indeed come here to help the Ming Cult, haven't we?"
"The Ming Cult doesn't need my help; it will have its own savior appear."
I have two purposes for coming to Kunlun this time. First, I heard that there is a deep valley here with a strange peach tree that can produce extraordinary peaches.
I plan to use this peach to make wine.
Secondly, I have an old friend in the Ming Cult, and I want to visit her.
"The commotion of the six major sects besieging Bright Peak is so huge, it would be bad if she got hurt."
Yang Guo's eyes immediately lit up with a gossipy gleam.
He immediately moved closer, looking at Gu Qianbei with a sly expression.
"Why are you staring at your teacher like that?"
Gu Qianbei felt a little uncomfortable under Yang Guo's gaze.
"Master, is this old friend of yours a young woman?"
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Hehe, I knew it. Master, could this be another one of my mistresses?"
"Not yet...."
"Then it will happen sooner or later. Master, I admire you more and more."
Your apprentice has a question for you.
"What's the problem?"
"How many mistresses do I have? Should I be careful about anything?"
"It wouldn't be good if I said the wrong thing later."
Seeing Yang Guo's mocking expression, Gu Qianbei immediately flicked him on the forehead.
"Ouch! That hurts!"
Yang Guo quickly covered his head, looking pained.
"I think you've gotten too bold, daring to make fun of your teacher."
Gu Qianbei smiled helplessly.
"Hehe, Master, I'm just envious of you."
I hope I'll have the same good fortune as you someday.
"You've underestimated yourself. I bet you'll have a lot of romantic entanglements when you grow up."
You'd better handle this carefully, or you'll end up with a mountain of debt.
"Hehe, then I'll need Master to teach me more so I can handle it."
"You're so glib. Get lost, you talk too much."
"Okay, Master."
After exchanging a few jokes, the master and apprentice continued their journey.
Before long, Gu Qianbei saw two people not far away.
A man, a woman.
The man looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old. Both his legs were broken, and he was sitting on a makeshift stretcher.
The woman looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old, and she was dragging a stretcher forward with her thin body.
"Hmm? Could it be Zhang Wuji and Yin Li?"
Upon seeing this scene, Gu Qianbei immediately thought of the two people.
Based on the timeline, the only people who would have this look at that time were Zhang Wuji and Yin Li.
When Gu Qianbei saw them, they also saw Gu Qianbei and Yang Guo.
Seeing that although the two men's clothes were not fancy, they were made of the finest fabrics, Yin Li knew that these two men were not ordinary people.
Yin Li didn't want to have any contact with Gu Qianbei, lest it cause more trouble.
But when Gu Qianbei saw them, she simply left.
He was already looking for Deep Valley, and now that he'd met Zhang Wuji, he could just ask him directly.
Given Zhang Wuji's personality, he would answer if asked.
There's not even a need to ask about strategies.
Hello, you two.
Gu Qianbei stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and said with a kind smile on his face.
As soon as he said this, both Yin Li and Zhang Wuji looked at him.
"My name is Gu Qianbei, and I am a winemaker. I have heard that there is a secret realm in Kunlun Mountain, where there are extraordinary peach trees."
But my master and I searched here for a long time without finding it.
Do either of you know of any hidden place like this?
Gu Qianbei didn't try to hide anything and asked directly.
"I don't know, you should ask someone else."
Yin Li refused very decisively.
Zhang Wuji thought to himself, "Isn't this the valley I just came out of?"
What a coincidence!
Since I know, I should tell him.
Thinking this, Zhang Wuji said, "Young master, I should know the valley you mentioned."
"real?"
Gu Qianbei was delighted.
As expected of the most kind-hearted protagonist, he is truly authentic in his actions.
Yin Li glared at Zhang Wuji helplessly, clearly blaming him for causing trouble at this time.
Why not just refuse directly?
Zhang Wuji, however, did not notice the resentful look in her eyes and kindly gave Gu Qianbei directions.
"Follow this road and walk for about ten miles, and you will see a cliff. Dozens of meters above the cliff, there is a protruding stone platform."
There is a small hole inside the stone platform; crawl through it and you'll find the secret realm.
The hole was really small; only a small child could squeeze through it.
If you know how to shrink your bones, maybe you can get in.
Otherwise, we'll have to try to drill a hole.
