Qiao Si knew what the production team meant; they wanted him to keep Gu Tang occupied.
Ideally, or even better, make it impossible for him to eliminate other teams.
As the mysterious boss, he was unable to eliminate the guests.
But as long as he can subdue Gu Tang, the other teams can continue as the program organizers expect.
But Qiao Si looked at Gu Tang.
Looking at the thin young man in front of me.
Looking into the clear, bright light in the other person's eyes, he suddenly realized that volunteering to join the show might not have been a good choice.
"Aren't you going to do anything?" Gu Tang asked again.
Although he couldn't perceive Qiao Si's level of cultivation.
However, he could sense that the other party did not seem to have any ill intentions towards him.
They couldn't even sense the slightest fighting spirit from the other party.
Gu Tang was slightly relieved.
If they are truly evenly matched, then the side with the stronger fighting spirit obviously has a greater chance of winning.
Of course, if his cultivation level is overwhelmingly superior, there's nothing he can do.
However, he felt that Qiao Si was not yet at the point where he could crush him.
If he truly reached that level, Gu Tang had no doubt that even without making a move, the opponent's aura would completely overwhelm him.
He felt relieved and turned to look at the clear lake again.
There should be fish in the lake.
If Qiao Si hadn't come, Gu Tang had planned to catch a few fish for dinner.
Qiao Si: "..."
"Have you had dinner?" Gu Tang asked casually.
“…No,” Qiao Si said.
Gu Tang nodded.
He raised his right hand slightly and casually swung it out.
Two fish, each weighing about two pounds, flew out of the lake.
The fish seemed to be pulled by an unknown thread, landing precisely in front of Gu Tang.
Light a fire and kill the fish.
Then Gu Tang strolled around the lake and found some herbs that could be used to make spices.
Just stuff it into the fish's belly like that.
Finally, he skewered the fish with branches and grilled them over the fire.
Gu Tang had not done such a thing for thousands of years.
He never imagined that he would one day be catching and grilling fish himself on a live broadcast.
—It felt like returning to the early days of my spiritual practice.
There are no seasonings, but the wild fish raised in the lake water have tender flesh on their own.
Gu Tang quickly grilled the two fish and generously gave one to Qiao Si.
Qiao Si: "..."
Netizens: "..."
The steaming hot fish, with just a gentle bite, releases a burst of delicious juices.
It's incredibly fresh!
It was dinnertime, and the viewers watching the live stream were already a bit hungry.
At this moment, Qiao Si and Gu Tang were seen standing by the lake, eating grilled fish with relish, without any regard for formalities.
Depend on!
Countless people expressed their envy.
Joss's fans were extremely jealous.
It's so enviable that someone as obscure as Gu Tang can have such a good relationship with their older brother, sob sob.
The grilled fish was finished quickly.
The sky gradually darkened.
Gu Tang glanced at the time, then turned to Qiao Si: "If you still don't make a move, I'm going to continue looking for other teams."
Qiao Si: "..."
He almost gave a wry smile.
Gu Tang isn't actually assertive; he's just straightforward in his speech.
He is usually quite tactful and is praised by people for his high emotional intelligence.
But faced with Gu Tang like this, she was a little unsure how to proceed.
"It's almost dark," Qiao Si said. "Let's get some rest tonight and do it tomorrow, okay?"
"Not good." Gu Tang shook his head.
He smiled slightly at Qiao Si: "You should know that I'm in a hurry."
The last "ah" was accompanied by a ten-meter-high giant wave that swept over Qiao Si.
Qiao Si suddenly swayed and took a big step back.
The vast expanse of lake water lapped against the spot where he had just stood.
The traces of Gu Tang's cooking over a fire were completely cleaned up, leaving no trace whatsoever.
—It's like how he acted decisively and swiftly, as if he were doing something right away.
Gu Tang's eyes were as bright as stars.
His right hand drooped slightly, and a knife instantly materialized in his hand.
Qiao Si had seen Gu Tang's sword techniques, and they were indeed unparalleled.
He never expected that his opponent would use a knife instead of a sword when facing him.
However, what the weapon is is no longer important to cultivators at their level.
“So…” Gu Tang smiled at Qiao Si again: “You’re not a first-grade cultivator.”
Qiao Si: "..."
His level of cultivation has never been a secret.
Does the other person really not recognize me?
So that's why you don't know your own level of understanding?!
The thought flashed through Qiao Si's mind.
But he soon found himself unable to focus on whether Gu Tang recognized him or not.
Because of the flashing blade!
The blade's light, brighter than the most dazzling sunlight, was about to strike him.
Qiao Si suddenly soared into the sky.
Gu Tang was faster than him.
His slender body followed Qiao Sifei up, and they caught up with each other in an instant.
“You can’t escape!” Gu Tang said calmly. “If you’re even thinking of running away, then we don’t need to continue fighting.”
Qiao Si: "..."
Netizens: "..."
Netizens were stunned!
The production team and distributors were completely dumbfounded!
They thought that Qiao Si, who entered the show as a mysterious boss, would be able to eliminate Gu Tang.
At least, it can stop him from constantly eliminating his opponents.
But what did Gu Tang just say?!
He told Qiao Si not to even think about escaping.
And he looked so serious, it didn't seem like he was joking at all.
Qiao Si took a deep breath; he felt this joke had gone too far!
Because of the huge wave that had just crashed into him, he had already noticed—
Gu Tang's cultivation level is even higher than his!
So he could only hide.
What the hell is this, being at the same level?!
Gu Tang is now almost at the first-grade level.
Why would he participate in this kind of variety show?!
Why can't the big shots just stand at the top and enjoy everyone's admiration?!
"Hey, hey, hey, I'm not fighting anymore!" Qiao Si raised his hands.
Gu Tang moved too fast; the spiritual energy longsword was already almost at his neck.
"Hmm?" He raised an eyebrow and looked at Qiao Si calmly.
"I'm no match for you." Qiao Si smiled bitterly again. "There's no point in continuing."
