"What, that kid actually dares to talk back to a strong man above the tenth level? And he even said that he only has 2,500 years left to live?"
"Yes, elder."
"These... why didn't I see that this kid is so arrogant? He's just a newcomer, how dare he act like this?"
"But, elder, he really killed someone in front of the incarnation of the tenth realm strong man, but what he killed was quite right."
"Huh? How do you say this?"
"Elder, I heard—"
…
Among the major branches of Shenlu Academy, the elders who were in charge of the branches almost all received the message at the same time.
The name Gu Qingyang was once again mentioned by many people, especially by these elders, who gave him various comments.
However, many elders still chose to praise Gu Qingyang because Gu Qingyang had indeed eliminated a great harm to their Shenlu Academy.
In the past, they turned a blind eye to Gu Rong because of their feelings and Gu Wushang's strength.
But now, Gu Qingyang took advantage of the situation and killed Gu Rong directly. This made them feel vaguely satisfied.
However, in the following time, no one came specifically from outside Shenlu Academy to cause trouble for Gu Qingyang.
However, it was not just the elders of Shenlu Academy who were shocked by this incident. At the same time, those talented people also did not stop.
"Miss, Mr. Gu Qingyang is really famous again now. He killed that prostitute Gu Rong, which is very satisfying."
"I never expected that Mr. Gu, who usually acts so low-key, would turn out to be such a domineering and unparalleled hero at critical moments."
…
In a small courtyard with unique scenery, three women were sitting in a small pavilion. Among them, one was making tea and the other was fanning the wind.
There was another person who was quietly looking at the rockery not far away, silent, just watching the water flowing down from the rockery.
These three people were none other than Luo Shuixian, who had entered Shenlu Academy, and her two maids, Xiao Zhu and Mo Lan.
At this moment, they were just doing what they usually did. However, the news that Gu Qingyang killed Gu Rong in anger had spread throughout the academy.
Therefore, they have to know.
Xiaozhu and Molan, of course, had a great impression of Gu Qingyang as before, and this incident made them praise Gu Qingyang endlessly.
However, no matter what the two of them said, Luo Shuixian was very calm. The depths of her beautiful eyes were full of deep brilliance, and she looked calm.
"This matter is not as simple as you two silly girls think. Gu Qingyang is very smart. He will not do such a reckless thing easily."
"Think about it, since he dares to act like this, he must have someone to rely on. Xiaozhu, go back and bring some cultivation resources to him."
"Yes, miss."
"Mo Lan, prepare more methods. The day of the academy competition is coming. When the time comes, even with Gu Qingyang protecting us, we will not be easy."
"Yes, miss."
…
Luo Narcissus remained silent for a long time, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she gave people a sense of profoundness. And the things she referred to in her words really made people fall into silence.
Xiaozhu and Molan had been following her for a long time, and at this time, they could only vaguely guess what their young lady was thinking.
Luo Shuixian himself, after making arrangements, silently thought about what else Gu Qingyang could rely on.
She thought she saw Gu Qingyang's trump card very clearly.
But this time, after this incident, she felt that she had never seen Gu Qingyang clearly. She felt that this person was too unfathomable.
However, the more Gu Qingyang acted like this, the more he aroused the strange desire to win deep in Luo Shuixian's heart.
Gu Qingyang, right?
Unfathomable, right?
She just wanted to try to see if she could rely on her methods to conquer this man step by step and make him fall in love with her Luo family.
At the same time, in the room belonging to Gu Qingyang in Shuxiang Yayuan, Gu Qingyang himself was silently sitting cross-legged in mid-air practicing.
At the same moment, Ye Lan Yaoge stared at the alchemy furnace in front of her with a sullen expression. The brilliance in her eyes was really dim.
There is no way, this is the third time she has failed. She only has the cultivation level of the phase bone realm, and the elixir she wants to refine is a fifth-level elixir.
Fifth-level elixirs also have requirements for the alchemist's own cultivation.
As she is now, she is doing something extremely dangerous.
Before this, she had already blown up two furnaces in a row.
While refining the medicine failed, she and Gu Qingyang also drank two batches of failed medicine.
That bitter feeling was something she never wanted to relive in her life. But no matter what, that was the price of failure.
If you don't drink the liquid while it's hot and refine it after failure, you will really lose everything.
It was a bit hard, but she chose to endure it for the sake of cultivation. And after experiencing failure, she worked harder and harder.
However, no matter what she does, Gu Qingyang always looks casual. He seems to be able to accept any form of elixir.
This also left her speechless.
Although she knew that this unscrupulous way of practice was more in line with Gu Qingyang's generation's attitude of rebuilding the emperor among demons.
However, when she actually went to accompany Gu Qingyang to endure that kind of pain, she, who had never had such an experience, still had a lot of emotions.
"Yelan, please stop now. If you have time, read more of the books I prepared for you. Now I think it might be useful if you read more."
"Ah? But, you're not——"
"Hey, don't worry, weapon refining and medicine refining are actually the same. Don't look at my attainments in this area, I'm a few points higher than you now."
"But, you girl is much more talented than me, isn't it? Come on, I'm really looking forward to your skills in the competition."
"Okay, Master Qingyang."
…
Facing Gu Qingyang's encouragement, Yelan Yaoge could only force out a bitter smile. She thought to herself, how could Gu Qingyang be any better than her?
Whether it is refining weapons or medicine, her current achievements are far inferior to Gu Qingyang, let alone surpassing Gu Qingyang.
But Gu Qingyang was good at everything, but not good at teaching others. Yelan Yaoge practiced for a long time according to the book he gave.
After practicing until now, Yelan Yaoge almost went crazy when he was refining the elixir for the second time, and he performed a crazy performance for him on the spot.
But Yelan Yaoge also understood that the book Gu Qingyang specially gave her was not bad after all. It was just that she had difficulty adapting to the content for a while.
"Consideration is supreme."
"Presbyterian Church."
"There is also a college competition."
"Um--"
…
At the same time, it was difficult for Gu Qingyang to calm down and continue practicing. Many things came to his mind and made him ponder.
Gu Qingyang only felt that he seemed to see many big hands invisibly, and they were all grabbing at him, and he could only choose to accept them.
However, at this moment, a voice sounded:
"Attention, disciples of all branches, the academy competition is about to begin. Disciples who need to participate in the competition, please come to the Yangshu Hall to register in advance."
