Chapter 2764 Attitude Shift
Qu Jianlei said that he did not need to rest deliberately, and with a thought, he could take a rock with a diameter of less than 600 kilometers into his body.
This time, it wasn't stored in the cave dwelling, but rather in the space within his body—it truly couldn't be stored in the cave dwelling.
Then he let out a long breath and looked at the stick in the air. "Thank you, senior. I am now fine."
It would have been better if he hadn't said that, because Jingzu became interested instead. "I'll follow along and see for myself, to broaden my horizons."
Upon hearing this, Bo Ping Zhenjun retorted sharply, "Do you think this is funny?"
“I used to avoid these kinds of things,” Stick answered honestly. “Isn’t it a good thing that I’m willing to stand by and watch now?”
Bo Ping Zhenjun was speechless at these words, but Wen Shi Zhenjun said, "I can't just watch for nothing."
“Of course,” Jingzu answered just as readily. “As long as it doesn’t exacerbate the karmic consequences of Tianqing, I can protect the Dao.”
Protecting the Way and protecting the Dharma are not entirely the same. It can be understood that if there are obstacles on the road that are not related to the collapse of the heavens, he can take action to clear them.
Upon hearing this, True Monarch Wenshi secretly contacted Taiyuan Hai, saying, "This guy is starting to change."
At the beginning, Jingzu clearly severed ties with Tianqing, but now he is willing to protect Qu Jianlei.
Having lived for quite some time, Wen Shi was certainly not naive enough to think that the other party was simply curious.
To put it bluntly: Jingzu has seen what results have been achieved through more than fifty years of perseverance.
It began to believe that there was a slight chance of successfully turning the tide.
“Things are accomplished through action,” the young woman said calmly. “Even if it wanted to join now, it would be too late.”
After a pause, she added, "This guy's brain might not be that sharp; it's probably just intuition."
Wen Shi still had great trust in Tai Yuan Hai's assessment.
This person is a typical example of "having an elder in the family is like having a treasure"—not just "like having," but truly being a treasure.
He was a little happy. "Isn't that even better? Baiqiao, to be able to pull off something like this, it's no wonder I supported him."
"This is nothing," the young woman said calmly. "It's still a long way off."
“It won’t be bad,” Wen Shi said with considerable optimism. “I have high hopes for the little guy.”
Some things can't be understood just by hearing about them; you have to see them for yourself to truly feel their wonder.
Afterwards, the group left the Girl Starfield and passed through the Asura World quietly, without disturbing anyone else.
The Asura world is still somewhat chaotic. The accelerated merging of the world has attracted too many onlookers.
However, in the eyes of the True Lord, none of these matters were of great importance; even disputes between True Venerables were not worth mentioning.
Kids need to play and roughhouse to grow up healthily.
With the help of the Great King, the return to Houde will be quick, taking only about ten days.
This is only because Wen Shi and Bo Ping are leading the True Venerables; otherwise, it would only be faster.
The first place everyone arrived at was the Cangwu Realm. Qu Jianlei did not enter with his main body, but only released a clone.
Qu Zhenzun's return once again shook the realm, after all, there had been no news for more than fifty years.
However, he only briefly appeared to sense the degree of fusion of the fifth-order spiritual vein before disappearing again.
However, that's enough, Xiangxue said, as it can at least guarantee peace in the region for a hundred years.
Outside the Cangwu Realm, Qu Jianlei handed the small cauldron to True Monarch Wuchen without saying a word.
Wuchen took the small cauldron, raised it, sensed its charm, and then casually put it away to play with.
About fifteen minutes later, he returned the small cauldron to Qu Jianlei, nodded silently, and said nothing.
It's just a minor cause and effect; it's worth doing, but nothing more is needed.
"Ahem," Wen Shi Zhenjun coughed lightly, the meaning of which was clear: What about the other quiet zone you mentioned?
“It’s been moved,” True Monarch Wuchen replied casually. “I’m tracking it down. At most ten years, is that alright?”
The True Lord has countless clones, and his other clones have already begun to implement this matter.
Previously, a junior member of the Taihao Sect had also entered the Silent Zone, and later, disciples from the sect who went to rescue him also fell in.
Finally, Wuchen stepped in, rescued the younger generation, and then left.
He's already done enough by taking action; as for destroying the Silent Zone... he has no interest in creating such a karmic connection for no reason.
But it really can't be found now; it wasn't a slip of the tongue on his part.
The worst part is that the Silent Zone is extremely rare; he has lived for tens of thousands of years and only knows of this one place.
Even so, he is already stronger than most True Lords. Other Great Lords would have to inquire about him on the spot if they wanted to find him.
Wen Shi Zhenjun didn't seem to mind, saying, "Ten years from now, I'll be waiting for you in Lingyun!"
"Surely not?" True Monarch Wuchen understood what he meant. "I have a karmic connection with Young Friend Qu. Why are you in such a hurry to send me away?"
They're all shrewd people who've lived for so many years; who doesn't know what the other is thinking?
Wen Shi was somewhat speechless. "When have you ever seen so many kings staying together for an extended period of time?"
"What do you mean by 'long-term clustering'?" A figure flashed, and another Great Lord appeared—it was Kong Yu.
He was originally protecting Jing Yuexin in Houde when he sensed that Qu Zhenzun's avatar had appeared in Cangwu, so he came to take a look.
"And you..." Wen Shi was exasperated. "Don't you all have anything to do?"
In the past, the Great Lords were almost never seen in the entire Houde Realm, and when they did appear, it was only for a fleeting glimpse.
With so many people appearing all at once, and gathering in large groups for extended periods, isn't that a bit much?
“That’s... baffling,” Kong Yu ignored him and looked at Qu Jianlei instead.
"Young friend, I have not failed you. You have kept your promise to me this time... wait, why has your aura changed like this?"
The two had only been apart for fifty years, and he could never have imagined that the other party had grown to this extent.
Not only was his aura profound, reminiscent of a peak True Venerable, but he also possessed an indescribable presence.
Qu Jianlei smiled and said, "Thank you, Great Lord Protector. I have overdrawn my resources quite a bit."
“This doesn’t count as overdrafting,” Kongyu Zhenjun shook his head.
Although he has only advanced for a little over a thousand years, he has his own strengths: "His foundation is even more solid than before!"
Then he steered the conversation back on track, saying, "There are so many fellow cultivators here."
“Wuchen of Taihao Sect,” True Monarch Wuchen cupped his hands, “I have long admired Fellow Daoist Kongyu’s reputation.”
"No, I was just distracted," Kongyu Zhenjun waved his hands repeatedly, then glanced at the stick, "Jingzu hasn't left yet?"
"I'm protecting young friend Qu," Stick replied simply, without elaborating further.
Kongyu Zhenjun seemed to understand a little, and glanced at Qu Zhenzun again, "Was it smooth sailing?"
"It's better than nothing," Qu Jianlei replied with a smile. "Next... we'll have to rely on the Great Khan's protection."
"This is not our fault," Kong Yu said with a smile, waving his hand and then bowing slightly. "In that case, I wish you all the best!"
The next moment, he disappeared.
"He knows when to advance and when to retreat," the young woman couldn't help but comment. "He has a good character."
"Senior Taiyuan, what you're saying is quite embarrassing," True Monarch Wuchen felt a little awkward. Wasn't this a veiled insult to me?
"Actually, I have something to tell you. Didn't we talk about the Stardew Realm before? That realm..."
“You don’t need to tell me, Mi’er already told me,” the young woman stopped him, “We can’t think about that right now.”
"Isn't that settled?" True Monarch Wuchen replied seriously, "You still have to go, right? Without me to guide you, it'll be really hard to find your way."
The Möbius strip couldn't hold back any longer, "Then don't go near the sky."
"Of course!" Wuchen answered decisively this time, "I'm not crazy, I'm just purely curious."
Qu Jianlei suddenly spoke up, "This is also for the good of the Great Lord. The more people participate, the more difficult it will be for the Heavenly Trials."
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, not only was Bo Ping Zhenjun stunned, but everyone else was also taken aback.
After a while, the young woman finally spoke, "How did you determine that?"
“Intuition,” Qu Jianlei replied seriously, “The appearance of the Taotie has greatly increased the difficulty for me… It must be due to it.”
He had no such understanding before, but during the process of refining higher-dimensional elements, a vague realization gradually emerged.
“No wonder,” Wen Shi Zhenjun said, seemingly having thought of something, and surprisingly agreed, “It’s a good thing I didn’t get involved rashly.”
He only became aware of this matter because Baiqiao, that junior, had mentioned the sect's plans to him.
As the sect's trump card, Wen Shi basically doesn't care about sect affairs anymore; the less trouble he has, the better.
However, he must support the plan to make Lingyun a cross-realm sect.
Otherwise, even if Han Li could talk to him, how could he possibly persuade him to help Duo Gan leave his body?
If it weren't for the incident of saving the world, even if Han Li asked him to help Qu Zhenzun, he would likely not have taken action.
—The only time he would occasionally help Han Li was out of personal favor; he wouldn't help Han Li's friends' subordinates.
Moreover, Wen Shi Zhenjun controlled the scale very precisely; he was merely observing the development of the situation from the sidelines and absolutely did not get involved.
With Taiyuan Hai involved, Xiao Qu became a favorite of the sect, and Duo Gan was Xiao Qu's capable subordinate...
Even without considering Jin Ge, these factors alone are enough.
If he doesn't get involved, any unforeseen circumstances won't implicate the entire Lingyun Group.
"Is that so?" Jingzu was also a little surprised. "But it doesn't matter. It's just witnessing something."
“Me too,” True Monarch Wuchen stated. Regardless of his previous thoughts, he couldn’t say anything else at this moment.
They flock to you when there's something to gain, and avoid you when there's nothing to gain... Does the Great Khan even care about his dignity?
“That’s…strange,” Bo Ping Zhenjun said with a wry smile, then gave Qu Jianlei a deep look. “Your influence is stronger than mine!”
Previously, when he sought help from the outside world, who wouldn't avoid him?
It is truly remarkable that this minor True Venerable could attract so many Great Lords to flock to him.
Is this the charm of the one who can save the world from collapse, the chosen one?
However, Qu Jianlei did not lose his way. He calmly stated, "I am not from Lianxing, so people just feel that the danger is less."
"This character..." Bo Ping Zhenjun gave a thumbs up, "I admire it!"
