Who Taught You To Cultivate Immortality Like This?
Chapter 153 Do You Think I’M Stupid? Playing So Dirty?
Chapter 153: Do you think I'm stupid? Playing this dirty?
"Shi Shishu, I trouble you to treat this Gu De. Don't let him lose consciousness, it's impolite," Xu You said.
Zhang Changli's eyelid twitched, silently walking to Gu De's side. His powerful cultivation poured into Gu De's body, maintaining his clear consciousness and vitality.
Wu Bufan stared straight ahead, his hands and feet trembling involuntarily. He immersed himself in Gu De's suffering, feeling the pain as if it were his own.
So ruthless, it would be better if he really died.
Looking at Xu You, who maintained a smile, Wu Bufan's scalp tingled as if he were looking at a demon.
Who is the real Demonic Cultivator?
Are young people nowadays all so ruthless? When he was eighteen or nineteen, the most he did as a Demonic Cultivator was kill a few people. How could it be so twisted?
Soon, Gu De's execution was complete. He collapsed on the ground like mud, convulsing unconsciously, begging for death.
Wu Bufan swallowed hard and, without waiting for Xu You to ask, he quickly spoke up, "Xu Xiaoxia, listen to me. This is how things are."
Wu Bufan didn't hide anything, explaining his purpose for this trip to Xu You in detail.
After listening, Xu You looked at the other person with a mix of belief and doubt. "The three of you Six Realm cultivators came to me just to capture my true image?"
"Yes, that's right."
"Not to kill me or capture me?"
"No."
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Xu You slammed the table. "Master, deal with him!"
Mo Yuhuang grinned and approached, ready to teach Wu Bufan a lesson.
Wu Bufan's body trembled violently and he hurriedly said, "What I said is true, there is absolutely no concealment. We simply wanted to record a slightly less impressive image of you, and nothing else."
"If you don't believe me, you can ask me anything about the Crimson Gold Sect. I will reveal everything without any concealment."
The older one gets in the martial world, the less courage they have. Wu Bufan had no stance at all and immediately turned against Gu De when he saw his miserable state.
It could be said that he had no faith at all, but thinking about it, it was reasonable for a demonic cultivator like the Crimson Gold Sect to be like this.
A demonic force built on interests truly had no faith to speak of.
"Nephew, I actually think what Wu Bufan said is true," Zhang Changli said slowly. "They probably didn't dare to kill you, as that would escalate the overall conflict. As for capturing your image, it could be used by the public opinion to put Kunlun in a relatively embarrassing position. If not handled properly, it would be very troublesome and greatly damage our sect's reputation."
Xu You asked in surprise, "Am I that important? Can such a big thing be triggered just by my image?"
"Of course, nephew, your importance is beyond doubt, and the power of an image is also significant, spreading quickly," Zhang Changli explained.
Xu You fell silent, realizing that he had underestimated his own importance. As for using his image to trigger such a reaction, it was nothing more than manipulating public opinion and then launching an attack with a water army.
This kind of method was something Xu You was familiar with. Countless heroes had fallen victim to the "inspiring and tear-jerking" essays.
He didn't expect that the Immortal Cultivation World had also developed to this extent.
Xu You had known that images were powerful, as Bai Genshuo had been wanted by Connected Tranquility Valley because of an image.
But he didn't expect the power to be this great. It was indeed a good method.
"Are there no restraints on such despicable methods?" Xu You asked, puzzled.
"We righteous cultivators naturally have restraints and rules. Generally, we won't resort to such shameless methods. But these Demonic Cultivators don't have as many rules. They can do all sorts of despicable things," Zhang Changli said.
"That's right." Wu Bufan forced a smile, expressing his gratitude for Zhang Changli's righteous words.
Xu You looked at the morally flexible Wu Bufan and asked, "So, what specific aspect of my image do you want to capture?"
Wu Bufan hesitated, thinking about ignoring the sexual aspect of the image.
I dare not speak of any specific operations. If something goes wrong later, Mo Yuhuang will definitely be furious.
"Hmm?" Mo Yuhuang sharpened his knife.
"I said, I said." Wu Bufan immediately explained, detailing the pre-set plans.
After listening, before Xu You could get angry, Mo Yuhuang and Zhang Changli became extremely angry.
Zhang Changli slammed his palm on the table and angrily said, "You guys want to create a scandalous image of Xu You? How dare you?"
As an experienced cultivator who had been in the Divine Continent for many years, Zhang Changli knew better than anyone that if Xu You's scandalous image were to spread, Kunlun's reputation would be completely ruined.
This was not the main issue; the key was that Xu You might end up with a broken Dao heart because of this, becoming a useless person.
Such examples were not unheard of. Young people had thin skin, how could they withstand such a situation?
This move was simply killing someone's heart. Zhang Changli knew that these Demonic Cultivators were shameless, but he didn't expect them to be so shameless. They had no bottom line at all.
Mo Yuhuang's right hand was already on Wu Bufan's neck, ready to kill him.
At this moment, Xu You directly shouted to stop Mo Yuhuang, "Master, wait, I have something to say."
"What can you say about this trash?" Mo Yuhuang asked.
"It's okay, even trash has its uses." Xu You smiled.
Mo Yuhuang released his hand, and Wu Bufan gasped for breath, saying with fear, "This idea wasn't mine, it was proposed by Heng Alliance. Tan Long was in charge of recording, and I was just following orders."
"Do you want to live or die?" Xu You asked.
"I want to live!" Wu Bufan immediately nodded. Reaching this stage of the Great Dao was not easy, and he wanted to live more than anyone else.
Originally, he thought this was an easy task. After completing it, he would receive a large amount of resources as a reward and then go into seclusion in another continent.
But he didn't expect to fall into this situation today. If he had known, how could he have taken on this task?
He regretted being greedy for that wealth.
After serving Crimson Gold Sect for so many years and cultivating so many outstanding talents, Wu Bufan had no moral pressure to betray Crimson Gold Sect.
"Just stay put if you want to live. I have something for you to cooperate with when I come back." Xu You said.
"I will definitely cooperate." Wu Bufan immediately agreed without hesitation. "Absolutely cooperate."
"Very well." Xu You nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Zhang Changli and asked, "Master Uncle, I remember there is something called the River of Darkness Page, right? It's the document that can form a contract."
"Yes."
"Can I use it for Wu Bufan?" Xu You asked.
"Of course you can, but what do you want to do?" Zhang Changli hesitated.
"I want him to accompany me for a few years, recognize me as his master, and serve me. My strength is still low, and many eyes are on me. I think having a bodyguard shouldn't be excessive."
"That's not excessive." Zhang Changli hesitated. "But this person is a demonic cultivator after all, and it won't sound good if it spreads."
"It doesn't matter. I personally don't care about reputation. Safety comes first." Xu You smiled.
Zhang Changli glanced at Mo Yuhuang and saw that he had no objections. Naturally, he was happy to go along with it. He had figured it out by now.
Xu You usually seemed harmless and gentle, but it was all a disguise. He was not on the pure path of cultivation at all; he was a very practical cultivator.
"Alright, no problem. I have the River of Darkness Page, but with your cultivation, it's not enough to form a contract with a six-realm cultivator as a servant. I'll personally help you with the contract using the River of Darkness Page, and there shouldn't be any problems."
"Thank you, Master Uncle." Xu You smiled.
Under their agreement, Wu Bufan, as the person involved, couldn't say a word.
His face changed constantly at this moment. He didn't expect Xu You to directly accept him as a servant, which made it difficult for him to accept for a while.
Damn it, when has a six-realm cultivator ever served a four-realm cultivator as a servant? It's ridiculous!
But he didn't dare to argue. He knew that if he said a word of objection, Mo Yuhuang would mercilessly attack him.
"What's wrong? You seem unwilling," Xu You looked at Wu Bufan and asked.
"It's nothing," Xu You smiled, "Don't worry, I'm a reasonable person. I won't keep you with me for too long. When the day comes that my strength surpasses yours, I will naturally give you your freedom back.
Furthermore, I am saving you. Do you really think you can leave here unscathed? If I don't take you in, you will have no future for the rest of your life.
If you agree to this, besides being under my control, you won't face any other restrictions and can leave here intact. Take three breaths to consider."
"I agree!" Wu Bufan immediately nodded, without any objections.
Indeed, as Xu You said, agreeing to this is the best choice for him. At least, after becoming Xu You's servant, he won't have to worry about getting hurt.
After all, an injured servant is of no use.
"You are much smarter than Wu Gude. Wait here for now, I'll be back later," Xu You smiled.
Saying that, Xu You walked out of the room, followed by Mo Yuhuang and the other two.
Looking at the room returning to its quiet state, Wu Bufan sat down on the chair, wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, feeling fortunate that he was unharmed.
A servant is a servant, after all. Even if he really left Crimson Gold Sect, he would still be labeled as a traitor.
It's better to follow Xu You for a few more years.
He now realized that Xu You's position in Kunlun was much higher than he had previously thought.
He had never seen a Fourth Realm cultivator with such a grand demeanor. Even his esteemed master, Mo Yuhuang, listened to him, as did Zhang Changli, who was known for being kind-hearted.
Both of Kunlun's esteemed peak masters were like this, so one can imagine Xu You's position in Kunlun.
He was truly foolish, to have agreed to such a thing. Wu Bufan sighed as he slumped in the secret room.
Outside the room, Mo Yuhuang asked Xu You curiously, "Do you still need to interrogate the third person? We already know everything now."
"Just asking a few more questions to be sure. What if Wu Bufan is hiding something?" Xu You replied.
"Nephew, you handle things prudently, as you should. I should have those incompetent disciples of Heavenly Authority Peak learn from you," Zhang Changli said with a smile.
"Uncle, you flatter me. I dare not," Xu You replied.
"Why not? When we return to Immortal Gate, come visit Heavenly Authority Peak more often and set an example for those disciples," Zhang Changli said.
Xu You smiled and bowed, then quickly arrived at the secret room where Tan Long was being held.
As usual, Xu You sat directly across from Tan Long when he entered the room.
The other party was quite calm, with a somewhat dignified air. He still had some presence, although his appearance was a bit ugly, comparable to that of a piece of eight taels of gold.
Xu You silently looked at him, preparing to use his usual methods.
Mo Yuhuang dragged Wu Gude's battered body, ready to use him to threaten Tan Long.
But before Xu You could ask any questions, Tan Long spoke directly, "I have seen Peak Master Mo and Peak Master Zhang. Since I have already been captured by your esteemed Immortal Gate, I won't be ungrateful.
If the two peak masters have any questions or need me to do anything, please speak. I will obey."
Xu You was somewhat surprised as he looked at Tan Long. Before entering the room, Qing Cang had told him about this person's situation.
He was said to have climbed up from a low-level cultivator step by step to his current position, making him quite an inspirational cultivator.
He had thought that Tan Long would be a tough nut to crack, but he didn't expect him to be so sensible. But then again, it made sense. Tan Long had gone through hardships in the first half of his life to reach this position, so how could he easily give up everything he had achieved for the sake of Heng Alliance?
There was also the fact that the nature and cohesion of Heng Alliance were inferior to Demon Alliance. They were just a group of Demonic Cultivators huddling together for warmth.
In addition, each of their nine halls had a lot of autonomy, with each hall being equivalent to a faction. They would unite in times of life and death.
But in normal circumstances, the nine halls of Heng Alliance were constantly competing with each other. After all, although the Heng Ridge Mountain Range was vast, there were only so many cultivation resources.
So high-level cultivators like Tan Long didn't have a particularly strong sense of belonging to Heng Alliance. Their personal life and fate were definitely more important than Heng Alliance.
"Since you are so sensible, I won't ask too much. Just tell me everything about your recent activities. I have already asked the previous two. I know everything I need to know. Wu Gude is just an example of someone who refused to cooperate. Think carefully, if there are any discrepancies in your words, you will face the same fate," Xu You said calmly.
Qin Long looked at Xu You, then at the three people behind Xu You, suddenly realizing that the protagonist seemed to be Xu You.
Although he didn't know why a Four Realms cultivator like Xu You could have such a grand demeanor, he still maintained a proper attitude and calmly recounted everything he knew to Xu You.
After Qin Long finished speaking, there was no difference between what he said and what Wu Bufan said. Without any corroborating evidence, it was probably true.
This made Xu You speechless. How could he not have expected that the three Transcendent Level forces would use such despicable means against him, a mere Four Realms cultivator?
It was simply outrageous. Was this just a game of make-believe? Huh? Wasn't there supposed to be some semblance of a struggle between major forces?
They wanted to take him down with a peach-colored image and defeat Kunlun?
Xu You really wanted to peel open the minds of the high-level members of the Demon Alliance to see what they were made of.
"Their hearts are treacherous and despicable!" Elder Qingcang angrily said, "If this Qin Long really manages to capture a peach-colored image of us, it would indeed be a devastating blow to our reputation."
"Is it that serious?" Xu You turned his head and asked in confusion.
Countless peach-colored images circulated throughout the Divine Continent every year, and the spectators would forget about them after watching. The lifespan of each image was not long, and they would disappear after a few days.
Why would they use the term "devastating blow"?
"Oh? You don't know Qin Long?" Elder Qingcang looked at Xu You with a somewhat mocking expression.
"Should I know him?" Xu You was taken aback.
"It seems you really don't know. Not bad, you're a good seed for cultivation, unaffected by external influences." Elder Qingcang looked at Xu You with satisfaction.
Xu You became even more astonished and quickly searched his mind for information about Qin Long while carefully observing the other party.
Slowly, he suddenly remembered something. When he was chatting with Bai Genshuo before, Bai Genshuo mentioned his idol.
One of them was called Qin Long, known as the Great Demon Mentor.
At that time, Xu You was curious after learning about it. After Bai Genshuo explained it, he was surprised that there was such a thriving industry of [Fobole Warning] on the Divine Continent.
Xu You had also briefly learned about this Great Demon Mentor. He knew that his reputation in the circle was at the t0 level, and he earned an unknown amount of money from the peach-colored images every year.
However, at that time, Xu You was busy and didn't have time to watch the master's images. He only knew that there was such a person, and now, after being reminded, he finally remembered.
No wonder they had the idea of capturing a peach-colored image. They had actually invited the Great Demon Mentor himself.
The images produced were not ordinary images that would lose their popularity after a few days.
Every image of Qin Long would spread to countless places, and there was no concept of losing popularity. It always remained at the top, a mountain that no one watching could bypass.
If he really became a male protagonist, then he would truly be remembered for generations to come, a classic that would be passed down.
It would indeed cause a very serious blow to himself and Kunlun Immortal Sect.
Damn, it's really dirty! Fucking hell!
Just now, Xu You didn't feel anything when he didn't know Qin Long's identity, but now that he knew, he felt a bit scared. He almost ruined his reputation for life.
Although he often envied Jiecheng for playing high-end games, there was no way he would agree to personally film an image.
Was this a joke?
It's really despicable. These Demonic Cultivators have no sense of martial ethics, no bottom line!
On the other side, Mo Yuhuang's face turned even darker. She originally wanted to go up and kill the troublesome Qin Long, but Xu You stopped her in time.
"Master, now that we've clarified the situation, these three people indeed didn't intend to kill me or kidnap me."
"What's the difference between this despicable plan and killing you?" Mo Yuhuang asked in return.
Xu You was speechless, and finally said, "What should we do with this Qin Long?"
"Are you thinking of recruiting him?" Mo Yuhuang asked.
"It's not exactly recruiting. This person is very useful. It's better to spare his life than to kill him." Xu You explained.
Qin Long also spoke up, "If I can be of any help, Qin is absolutely willing to do anything. Please spare me, Lord Mofeng."
