Chapter 93: Little Friend, Please Come and Have a Chat! Green Lotus Princess to the Rescue
“At first, we thought that we were surely going to die. We never thought that it was Gu Xi who had caused all of this. You guys didn’t see the scene of ‘Return of 10,000 Swords to the Sect’. All sorts of strange phenomena appeared one after another...”
After listening to these words, everyone became envious. It would be great if they could see it with their own eyes!
The regret in their hearts was indescribable.
On the other hand, the last group of people who were left behind had an expression that was filled with endless regret. They had originally been through the gates of Hell, but they had never expected that things would turn for the better now. Even their tone carried an imperceptible sense of flaunting and pride.
After all, they had witnessed the birth of a divine weapon with their own eyes! Such an experience could also be considered extraordinary.
All in all, they were experiencing extremely complicated emotions.
A strange ripple flashed across Green Lotus Princess’s beautiful eyes. “Today’s competition was indeed outstanding. I once again thank everyone on behalf of the imperial family. At the same time, I also announce the winner of today’s competition to be Gu Xi!”
At this moment, Gu Xi was the target of everyone’s hopes.
Countless pairs of eyes landed on him. To be more precise, they were staring at the slightly glowing sword in his hand.
It must be known that this was a divine weapon. If one could have it, it would be a tremendous increase in their strength. It could greatly increase the strength of the sect. For a moment, the elders or Sect Masters of the super large sects looked around, and they could not help but fall into deep thought.
Gu Xi was too mysterious, or he hid it extremely well. They had probed around and found out that he came from a small sect called Supreme Purity Sect. This made it even more strange. For a time, no one dared to act rashly.
Otherwise, forget the divine weapon, they might accidentally offend a certain behemoth. The gains would not make up for the losses.
“I wonder if I can invite Little Friend Gu to the Star Viewing Pavilion for a chat.”
The person who said this was a kind-looking old man. His hair and beard were all white, and he looked amiable. However, the power coming from his body could not be underestimated.
The Star Viewing Pavilion was a super large sect in the Capital. They were very mysterious in their operations, but they were extremely powerful. The person who said this was none other than their Great Elder.
“That old fox is trying to snatch Gu Xi!” Everyone was secretly resentful. Everyone knew that the Star Viewing Pavilion wanted to get the Divine Sword.
These words were like a signal.
“The Ancient God Sect wishes to invite Little Friend Gu over for a chat!”
“The Kunwu Sect wishes to invite Little Friend Gu over for a chat!”
“The Supreme Sect wishes to invite Little Friend Gu over for a chat!”
...
Voices rose and fell one after another. The people who spoke were all powerful and of high status. Even the Sect Masters personally invited him over.
These large sects were all vying to invite Gu Xi. This was such an honor, and it was something that had never happened before. The others were stunned. Even if they knew that these powers were here for the Divine Sword, they could not deny that some of them wanted to build a good relationship with Gu Xi.
In the end, everyone’s gazes fell on Gu Xi.
They were all super large sects and factions. No matter which one he agreed to, it would be easy to offend the others. Some of their strength was also meant to test the waters. They wanted to see if the real faction behind Gu Xi would make a move.
Gu Xi’s expression was calm. Faced with requests from so many sects, he did not seem to be moved at all. One could not help but sigh at his temperament and demeanor.
Just as he was about to speak, Green Lotus Princess suddenly said, “Young Master Gu must be exhausted from the competition. I think everyone should let him rest for a while.”
Only then did everyone remember that Gu Xi hardly ate or drank. He had stayed on the competition field for a few days. Even if they had a high position and were from a large sect, they could not force him to stay.
Moreover, it was Green Lotus Princess who had spoken, so they had no choice but to give up for the time being. After saying a few polite words to Gu Xi, they all left.
Bai haoyu, Ou Yechen, Wang Dazhu, and the others all looked at each other before walking forward.
The first person to speak was Bai Haoyu. His expression was unsightly. It was obvious that he was still in shock and had yet to regain his senses. It took him a long time to squeeze out a sentence. “You’re very strong! And I’m sorry for what happened earlier!”
He left in a hurry, as if there were ghosts chasing after him. Gu Xi could not help but find it funny. Although this person was annoying, he did not have a bad nature.
Compared to Bai Haoyu who could not accept the reality in front of him, Ou Yecheng and Wang Dazhu were much calmer. Wang Dazhu, in particular, did not take these things seriously at all.
The reason why he came to participate in the competition was that he wanted to compete with other people to see how good he was. After all, there were not many people around him that could compete with him.
Wang Dazhu said cheerfully, “I’m very happy in this competition. I hope I’ll have the chance to compete with you next time.”
He patted Gu Xi’s shoulder, Gu Xi naturally would not reject his kindness. “Okay.”
Ou Yechen was the strangest. He did not say anything. He looked deeply at Gu Xi for a few moments before leaving, as if he wanted to remember him in his heart.
Wang Dazhu said disapprovingly, “Don’t take it to heart. He’s just like this. Previously, when I communicated with him, he was also like this. He doesn’t like to speak very much, and he’s quite reserved.”
Gu Xi did not take it to heart.
At this moment, a female servant came over. Gu Xi recognized that she was one of the Green Lotus Princess’s people.
“Young Master Gu, my Princess invites you.”
Wang Dazhu was in disbelief. He sized Gu Xi up and down. “Kid, you’re really something. Even Green Lotus Princess took the initiative to look for you.”
He winked at Gu Xi. His expression was a little mischievous. The meaning behind it was self-evident.
Gu Xi did not think too much about it. He only said calmly, “Don’t think too much.”
Wang Dazhu clicked his tongue. “Brother, you’re really something. You can still remain calm even after being invited by such a beauty. If it were me, I would be so happy that I wouldn’t be able to find my way around.”
Green Lotus Princess had always been aloof from worldly affairs and had a noble status. She had never requested to meet anyone. Now that she had taken the initiative to invite Gu Xi, it could be said to be the first time in history.
When the male cultivators saw that the Princess’s maidservant was inviting Gu Xi for an audience with the Princess, they cast envious glances at him.
