When Gu Changsheng returned to Pure Origin Tower, it was already dawn. Hong Hong had completed her breakthrough and was now a peak Transcendent Realm expert, just a step away from opening her divine sea, condensing her divine sense, and achieving the Spirit Focusing Realm.

"Hehe, Master, I've become stronger again, and I'll soon break through to the Spirit Focusing Realm!"

The smile on Hong Hong's face was extremely bright. Ever since she learned that her cultivation speed was faster than that of ordinary holy sons and holy virgins, Gu Changsheng couldn't find any words to discourage her, which made her very proud.

So Gu Changsheng no longer tried to dampen her spirits. Seeing the happy smile on her face, Gu Changsheng also revealed a hint of a smile and said, "Don't rush, take things one step at a time, and cultivate step by step."

Li Beifei, who was beside them, couldn't help but curl his lip when he saw how good Gu Changsheng was to Hong Hong.

"What? You're not convinced?"

Suddenly, Gu Changsheng looked at Li Beifei with a smile.

Li Beifei was shocked and quickly said, "Disciple didn't say anything, Master, don't wrong me."

"Your expression just now clearly said 'not convinced'."

Gu Changsheng didn't fall for his act. This kid was very slippery.

Seeing this, Li Beifei's face turned ashen. He simply closed his eyes, then lay on the ground, posing like the Chinese character '太' (tai).

"Master, come on, do it!"

He had given up resisting. Anyway, as long as he said something wrong, he would get beaten, and if his expression was wrong, he would also get beaten. Gu Changsheng was just biased. Why didn't he beat Senior Sister?

"My Lord, oh, Young Master, what's wrong with you...?"

At this moment, Su Wanqing, dressed in palace attire, walked in, intending to report something to Gu Changsheng, but she saw Li Beifei lying on the ground with a look of utter despair, and immediately forgot what she wanted to say.

Hearing Su Wanqing's voice, Li Beifei immediately opened his eyes, then crawled over and hugged Su Wanqing's leg, crying, "Wah, Sister Su, you're here. Master is going to beat me again. He doesn't treat me like a human. He gives me three small beatings a day and a big beating every three days. I don't want to live anymore, sob sob sob..."

Seeing this, Su Wanqing looked at Gu Changsheng strangely. When did My Lord become so brutal? I've never seen My Lord beat me.

"Young Master, you must have misunderstood My Lord. My Lord is definitely beating you for your own good."

Su Wanqing said.

"Boom!"

Li Beifei, who thought he had found a savior, felt like a bolt from the blue. He thought that Su Wanqing was so beautiful, she must be having an affair with Gu Changsheng, but now, whether they were having an affair or not was unknown, but Su Wanqing's heart was definitely with Gu Changsheng.

Li Beifei let go of Su Wanqing and lay on the ground, utterly despondent.

Gu Changsheng ignored this living treasure and looked at Su Wanqing, asking, "What is it?"

"Oh, right, the City Lord has come to visit with two people, saying they want to apologize and make amends to you," Su Wanqing said.

"Oh? Let them in," Gu Changsheng said, while also wondering in his heart, the Town Demon City Lord hadn't offended him, so what sins did he need to atone for?

Soon, Su Wanqing led the City Lord, Elder Yan, and Little Chenzi, who still looked like a pig's head, in.

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng asked curiously, "What's going on with you people?"

"My Lord, hello, I am an elder of the Yin Yang Sect, you can call me Little Yan. I'm here this time to apologize for this unfilial disciple..."

Elder Yan humbly explained how Little Chenzi had investigated Hong Hong. His humble tone startled the Town Demon City Lord, who was standing beside him. He didn't expect his usually proud and face-conscious Martial Uncle to be so obsequious.

Actually, it wasn't the Town Demon City Lord's fault. At first, Elder Yan hadn't planned to be so obsequious, but when he saw Su Wanqing, he changed his attitude for today.

Because he couldn't see through Su Wanqing's cultivation realm at all, and when they talked about visiting Gu Changsheng, the respect on Su Wanqing's face was from the bottom of her heart.

Having cultivated to the Life and Death Realm, Elder Yan wasn't stupid. As the saying goes, 'From a single glimpse, one can recognize the whole leopard.' Someone stronger than him was so respectful in front of Gu Changsheng, so why should he not put down his pride and airs?

After hearing this, Gu Changsheng smiled and said, "Just for this matter?"

Gu Changsheng didn't expect them to apologize for this matter. Ever since he gave the Xuanhuang Seed to Hong Hong, he knew he would face this situation. He didn't care about it at all. As long as they didn't try to snatch it, he didn't care how they investigated.

Moreover, not investigating would be a great disrespect to the Xuanhuang Seed, and disrespecting the Xuanhuang Seed would be disrespecting him.

"Alright, I didn't take this matter to heart. I thought something big had happened. Was it necessary to beat someone up like this?" Gu Changsheng said with a smile, then he waved his hand, and Little Chenzi was restored.

"Thank you, My Lord, for not remembering the offenses of a petty person!" Little Chenzi knelt down with a thud. He had regretted it very much after being beaten by Elder Yan last night and had even prepared to die to atone for his sins. He didn't expect Gu Changsheng to be so magnanimous. Such a person deserved to become a strong person. His own vision was still too small.

Elder Yan secretly gave the Town Demon City Lord a thumbs up. This My Lord was indeed a reasonable person, just as you said.

Elder Yan took out a storage ring and said, "My Lord, there is a little something inside, please accept it!"

Although Gu Changsheng had forgiven them, they couldn't come without a gift, could they?

Gu Changsheng didn't directly accept it, but looked at Hong Hong.

"Hong Hong, you make the decision on this matter."

"Okay, Master." Hong Hong nodded, then said, "City Lord, and this..."

"Just call me Little Yan," Elder Yan said with a smile, not feeling embarrassed at all that Hong Hong was hundreds of years younger than him. If he didn't even have this much face, what kind of immortal would he cultivate?

"Uh... forget it, I'll still call you Elder Yan. Elder Yan, I won't accept the gift. If you feel bad, how about this? I have a friend who will be following you back to the Yin Yang Sect. Her name is Bei Weiwei. Please take care of her then."

Hong Hong also didn't accept the storage ring.

Hearing this, Elder Yan patted his chest and guaranteed, "Miss Hong Hong, don't worry, as long as I'm alive, I will never let Weiwei be bullied in the slightest."

"Thank you," Hong Hong said.

"Is there anything else?" Gu Changsheng asked.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Elder Yan's face. He said, "I wonder, My Lord, if I can buy some Pure Origin Crystals here?"

"Of course, my Pure Origin Tower opens its doors to do business. As long as you can afford the Origin Crystals, you can buy as many Pure Origin Crystals as you want," Gu Changsheng said with a smile.

Although he had plundered countless Origin Crystals from the Nine Netherworlds last night, he didn't mind having more of this thing. He didn't need it, but he could leave it for Hong Hong. As for Li Beifei, let this rebellious disciple live or die on his own.

"Talk to Wanqing about this. She is currently in charge of Pure Origin Tower," Gu Changsheng said.

"Okay, My Lord," Elder Yan nodded, and then led the two away from the hall with Su Wanqing.

Li Beifei, who had been silent all along, suddenly wanted to leave the hall, but was grabbed back by Gu Changsheng.

"Where do you think you're going?" Gu Changsheng asked.

"Master, I... I have to pee, I want to go to the toilet," Li Beifei said with a smile that was more ugly than crying.

"Hold it in for Master. Do you think Master doesn't know what you're thinking? You just took a fancy to someone else's storage ring, didn't you? Your Senior Sister and Master both said they didn't want it, but you, this rebellious disciple, actually want to ruin Master's reputation, you're asking for a beating."

"Ouch, Master, can you not hit my face every time? What if I get disfigured and Qingyi Fairy can't recognize me in the future... Damn, Gu Changsheng, you're still hitting me, I'm giving you face, I'm going to fight you... lightly, I was wrong, can't I be wrong...?"

From begging for mercy to tearing off his face, and then to begging for mercy again, it was just the time it took for a beating.

Hong Hong covered her eyes, unable to bear to see the miserable appearance of her cheap junior brother.

After a session of loving education, Gu Changsheng said to Li Beifei, who was lying on the ground, "Get up!"

"I'm not getting up, you broke my leg, I can't get up, I really can't get up."

Li Beifei lay on the ground, refusing to get up no matter what.

"Hmm? Do you want Master to carry you?"

"No need!" Feeling that familiar murderous aura, Li Beifei jumped up instantly. As for his broken leg, it was purely his nonsense.

"Didn't you say you wanted Master to practice swords with you?" Gu Changsheng asked.

Hearing this, Li Beifei's eyes lit up, and he looked at Gu Changsheng with a radiant expression.

"Master, come on, I'm ready."

"Don't rush, Master will take you to a place."

After saying that, he waved his hand, and disappeared with Li Beifei and Hong Hong.
