Their future achievements will certainly be very limited.
He held Gu Nuo's hand firmly and slowly followed behind the two of them as they walked forward.
The summit of Danxin Peak is shrouded in mist and clouds, and there is a large, antique-style courtyard. The entire inner gate of Danxin Pavilion is built on the mountain.
Gu Tang also practiced here for several years.
Returning to this place now, everything has truly changed.
As for the Flying Cloud Palace that the two of them mentioned...
Danxin Pavilion is considered a major sect in this world, but it is not among the top-tier sects.
And Feiyun Palace is precisely among the very top-tier ones.
However, Feiyun Palace is seen as somewhat sinister by the world.
All the previous palace masters of Feiyun Palace were very strong, strong enough to compete for the title of the strongest in the world.
However, every palace master had someone secretly calling them the Demon Lord behind their backs.
Gu Tang had carefully recalled his journey and realized that even his past self had never had any connection with Feiyun Palace.
It's even less likely that I would steal their things.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Tang and his group had arrived outside the main hall of Danxin Pavilion.
The two disciples who had been arrogant and domineering in front of him immediately became serious, lowered their eyes, and respectfully walked into the hall.
"Sect Leader, outer disciple Gu Tang has arrived." The two men reported, then stood aside with their hands at their sides.
The entire hall fell silent for a moment.
All eyes instantly turned to Gu Tang.
Gu Tang held Gu Nuo's hand, openly allowing onlookers to watch.
He raised his eyes and looked directly at Dongfang Yu, the head of Danxin Pavilion, who was sitting in the main seat in the hall.
The man looked to be in his early forties, dressed in a simple blue robe, with a silver crown binding his black hair, and he appeared very refined.
Back when Gu Tang was a renowned genius within the sect, he was an apprentice of the sect leader, Dongfang Yu.
He had high hopes for Gu Tang, expecting him to bring glory to the sect.
However, Gu Tang later found himself unable to make any progress and instead regressed significantly, going from a genius cultivator who had already reached the Core Formation stage back to the Foundation Establishment stage.
Dongfang Yu also demonstrated the impartiality of a sect leader, directly expelling Gu Tang from the inner sect.
"Sect Leader." Gu Tang bowed to him calmly.
Then his gaze naturally shifted to the man sitting next to Dongfang Yu.
Huh?!
Gu Tang blinked, almost thinking he was seeing things.
The man sitting next to Dongfang Yu looked very young.
His white robe was trimmed with silver, and a dark black sandalwood crown held up his hair.
His features were sharply defined, deep-set, and seemed to carry an unyielding coldness.
The man glanced at Gu Tang coldly and indifferently with his icy, snow-white eyes.
So similar!
Even their gazes are exactly the same!
"He is Gu Tang, an outer disciple of my Danxin Pavilion," Dongfang Yu said calmly.
"Hmm," the man replied indifferently.
“For the Palace Master of Feiyun Palace to come in person, the lost item must be something important. However, Gu Tang has lived at the foot of my Danxin Peak for many years and has never left. I naturally trust the character of my disciples. Moreover, Gu Tang is only a Foundation Establishment cultivator, so it is probably difficult for him to take anything from Feiyun Palace,” Dongfang Yu added.
Palace Master of Feiyun?
Gu Tang looked at the man thoughtfully.
The legendary first person in this world?
He looks so much like the person he knows.
“Foundation Establishment cultivator…” Palace Master Feiyun slowly repeated these four words.
His voice was also cold, but deep and pleasant to the ear.
Gu Tang: Even the voice... seems a bit similar.
However, he didn't have a deep impression of that person's voice.
The other party's identity was somewhat special to him.
However, after ten thousand years of cultivation, the two only met once every few years.
The other party had an icy personality and was so engrossed in cultivation that he rarely spoke when they met.
"If Palace Master Feiyun doesn't believe me, he can test it himself," Dongfang Yu said calmly.
"It's not that I don't believe it..." As the Palace Master of Feiyun spoke, he still stared intently at Gu Tang.
He sat side by side with Dongfang Yu on the high platform, and with the air of authority he exuded, he looked down at Gu Tang with a sense of superiority.
Then, he stood up and slowly walked towards Gu Tang.
The Palace Master of Feiyun Palace only stopped when she was less than half a meter away from Gu Tang.
He stared at Gu Tang for a moment, then his gaze fell on Gu Nuo, who stood quietly and obediently to the side.
"Your son? What's his name?" Palace Master Feiyun asked.
Gu Nuo shrank back in fear and then secretly looked at her father.
“He’s my son.” Gu Tang squeezed Gu Nuo’s little hand, indicating that he didn’t need to be afraid.
He met the gaze of the Palace Master of Feiyun's eyes calmly and said, "His name is Gu Nuo."
"Oh," Palace Master Feiyun replied.
He was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "My surname is Qin."
As he spoke, he bent down and personally picked up Gu Nuo: "You can decide for yourself, Gu Nuo or Qin Nuo."
Chapter 6 The Son's Father is the Demon Lord (6)
The voice of Qin Junche, the Palace Master of Feiyun Palace, was not loud, but everyone in the Danxin Pavilion could hear it clearly.
In an instant, the hall became so quiet that you could almost hear a pin drop.
What... does this mean?
Some people didn't react immediately.
Wasn't the Palace Master of Feiyun here to demand an explanation?!
Didn't they say Gu Tang stole the most important treasure of Feiyun Palace?!
Everyone was waiting for him to unleash his fury and slap Gu Tang and his little bastard to death.
besides……
Isn't Gu Nuo the little bastard that Gu Tang had with some random man?
This incident caused a great sensation at Danxin Pavilion back then.
Back then, Gu Tang was the most valued disciple of the sect leader, Dongfang Yu.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him the number one in the inner sect. He is exceptionally intelligent and has an otherworldly handsome appearance. Wherever he stands, it seems as if the words "future leader of Danxin Pavilion" are written on his face.
Dongfang Yu indeed placed high hopes on him.
Resources within the organization were poured into him as if they were free.
Even many inner disciples were extremely jealous of his favor.
However, Gu Tang's cultivation level suddenly began to decline rapidly.
The sect leader and elders spent a lot of effort, but still couldn't find the reason for his decline in cultivation. They could only watch helplessly as he went from almost reaching the Great Perfection of Core Formation to gradually regressing to the Qi Condensation stage.
Even at that time, Dongfang Yu had not given up on Gu Tang.
Until he suddenly discovered that Gu Tang had become pregnant while still a man and had given birth to Gu Nuo!
After that, Gu Tang fell directly to the Foundation Establishment stage, becoming someone even worse than most outer disciples, standing at the bottom.
No matter how much Dongfang Yu pressed him for details about Gu Nuo's background, he remained tight-lipped and refused to say a word.
In the end, Dongfang Yu, as the sect leader, forcefully suppressed the matter and forbade the disciples of the sect from mentioning it again.
However, he still expelled Gu Tang, his former most beloved disciple, from the inner sect and never paid any attention to him again, leaving him to fend for himself in the outer sect.
The once most favored disciple suddenly fell to the bottom.
Those who had previously envied or been jealous of him came knocking on his door.
Sarcasm, ridicule, mockery, bullying, harassment...
Gu Tang endured it all.
He lived quietly with Gu Nuo at the foot of Danxin Peak, and the disciples could no longer find any trace of the once upright and brilliant number one inner sect disciple in him.
The mountain wind howled past the hall, seemingly blowing through the hearts of the Danxin Pavilion disciples who were waiting to see Gu Tang make a fool of himself.
They stared blankly at the tall and imposing Palace Master Feiyun, then at Gu Nuo, who was being held in his arms.
The two people, one tall and one short, both have very delicate features.
Although Gu Nuo is still young, you can already tell from his little face that he will definitely grow up to be an extremely handsome man.
Moreover, looking at it this way, Gu Nuo and Qin Junche, the master of Feiyun Palace, do indeed bear some resemblance.
They all have the same straight, delicate nose, thin lips, and beautifully sculpted profiles.
Gu Tang was also staring intently at Qin Junche.
