Chapter 2665. Gu Hanjing was holding in a breath of frustration at this moment, and her temper was immense. Young Master Wu Xingguang couldn’t even finish the second half of his sentence before being cut off.
Young Master Wu Xingguang's expression changed drastically. "Fairy Jing, feel free to state whatever requirements you have. This young master can satisfy them all for you." Gu Hanjing suddenly smiled. "Alright."
"Then cripple your cultivation right now. As long as you are willing to cripple your cultivation, this young lady doesn't mind taking in a male concubine and keeping you by my side." Young Master Wu Xingguang's expression immediately turned extremely ugly. The request Gu Hanjing made was impossible for him to fulfill.
Crippling his cultivation at his age was equivalent to suicide. Young Master Wu Xingguang's eyes darted around, and he took a deep breath. "Since Fairy Jing is determined not to marry this young master, then this young master will not force the issue. I shall take my leave."
Saying this, he turned and wanted to leave. Just as he turned around, he heard Saint Master Gu Hanyu's voice. "Young Master Wu, you may leave, but please leave behind the Ice Ancestor Token according to our agreement."
Young Master Wu Xingguang clearly did not want to hand over the Ice Ancestor Token. He argued sophistically, "Just now, Fairy Jing did not personally refuse. It was simply that this young master could not meet Fairy Jing's requirements and chose to retreat in the face of difficulty, so there is no need to return the Ice Ancestor Token."
Lin Moyu suddenly let out a light laugh. "If you don't want to hand it over, just say so. Why look for such a lame excuse? However, do you think you can leave Hanshui Holy Land without handing over the token?"
The two Seventh Realm Ancestors who had accompanied Young Master Wu Xingguang stepped forward simultaneously, shielding Young Master Wu Xingguang behind them. Young Master Wu Xingguang said in a low voice, "Are you trying to seize it by force? Are you not afraid of becoming enemies with the Wu Family?"
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out. "There is no need for such trouble. Today, this Ancestor is taking back this token. Another day, this Ancestor will personally visit the Wu Family to demand an explanation!"
A surging force descended with a boom, like an infinite mountain pressing down on Young Master Wu Xingguang and the two others. All three groaned simultaneously, unable to move. The two Seventh Realm Ancestors' expressions changed drastically as they felt how powerful this force was.
It was not something they could contend with at all. They knew that the Ice Ancestor had made a move. Facing the Ice Ancestor, who was in the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable, the two of them had absolutely no power to resist. The Ice Ancestor Token flew out from Young Master Wu Xingguang's embrace.
It shattered into powder with a bang in front of Young Master Wu Xingguang. Then, the heavy pressure vanished, and Young Master Wu Xingguang felt as if he had been granted a reprieve. Gasping for air and watching the powder drift across the sky, Young Master Wu Xingguang still wanted to say something.
However, he was stopped by the two Seventh Realm Ancestors. The two of them transmitted their voices to Young Master Wu Xingguang, "Leave first. This is Hanshui Holy Land, don't court death!" Young Master Wu Xingguang took a deep breath.
He said loudly, "In that case, this young master will report truthfully to the family. Respectful greetings to the Ice Ancestor!" "See them out!" Saint Master Gu Hanyu was not polite either.
She directly ordered people to send Young Master Wu Xingguang and his group away. Although Hanshui Holy Land and the Wu Family had not completely torn off the mask of civility, their relationship could already be considered hostile. However, Hanshui Holy Land was not afraid; no matter how long the Wu Family's reach was, it could not extend here.
Regarding external attitudes, Hanshui Holy Land had always been strong. Saint Master Gu Hanyu said, "Alright, next we should handle our internal affairs. Hanjing, come with me."
"There are some things I need to explain to you clearly." Since she was going to hand over the position of Saint Master to Gu Hanjing, many things needed to be explained. This could not be explained in a short while and would likely take some time. Gu Hanjing was still making a final struggle.
"Sister, should we reconsider?" Saint Master Gu Hanyu chuckled. "What do you think?" As she spoke, she glanced at Lin Moyu.
Gu Hanjing immediately understood her sister's meaning. She hung her head. "Alright. My fists aren't as big as my sister's, and even less so than my brother-in-law's, so I can only accept my fate."
Saint Master Gu Hanyu tapped her on the head lightly. "You learn quite fast. Wasn't your attitude toward Young Master Wu Xingguang quite strong just now? Be like that after you become the Saint Master. With the Ice Ancestor backing you, what is there to be afraid of?"
Saint Master Gu Hanyu took Gu Hanjing to discuss matters regarding the Saint Master, while Lin Moyu was teleported back to the courtyard where Saint Master Gu Hanyu lived. Lin Moyu looked around the not-so-large courtyard. It was very clean, had everything it needed, but lacked a bit of vitality.
The entire courtyard was too clean; apart from the cold ice jade, there were no plants at all. Lin Moyu shook his head slightly. "The dignified Saint Master of Hanshui Holy Land lives like this."
Xiao Mei smiled and said, "Teacher, what do you think it should look like?" Lin Moyu said, "Judging a person by their courtyard, it seems Hanyu has been quite hardworking on a daily basis." He flicked his finger, and a stream of Power of Life flew out. In an instant, the courtyard was filled with vitality.
Under the cold ice, flowers and plants grew, breaking through the soil one by one. It was like a divine miracle. Then, he wiped his hand, and the broken stones were quickly smoothed out. In the blink of an eye, the originally bare courtyard had gained a large expanse of greenery.
It looked full of vitality. Lin Moyu said, "This is more like it. I don't know how long they will take. Xiao Mei, you should practice; this teacher also needs to practice for a while." Chapter 3400: Little guy, long time no see.
Lin Moyu took out a reclining chair. He chose a very comfortable position to lie down, then took out a jade token to examine it. Xiao Mei was a bit curious. It was the first time she had seen Lin Moyu practice like this, and she guessed that the jade token in Lin Moyu's hand was unusual.
Lin Moyu's voice rang out, "No need to be curious. This jade token was given by Ancestor Gu Hanyu. It contains knowledge of the Divine Talisman, but with your current knowledge of arrays and runes, you won't be able to understand it at all. Wait until this teacher has mastered it first, then I will teach it to you. If you want to understand it,"
"first, firmly establish your foundation in arrays and runes." Xiao Mei made an "oh" sound. "So it's a token from the ancestor. Xiao Mei knows now!" Xiao Mei certainly knew about Divine Talismans, and she also knew that—
with her current level of arrays and runes, she was indeed not qualified to touch Divine Talismans yet. She should honestly focus on learning simple arrays and runes first, and establish a good foundation. Time passed day by day.
Lin Moyu's understanding of Divine Talismans became deeper and deeper. He began to understand the relationship between arrays, runes, and Divine Talismans. The current Artifact Array, Rune Array, and even runes—in reality, their source was the Divine Talisman.
The Divine Talisman was something that could truly lead directly to the Great Dao. If his talent was strong enough, and he could cultivate arrays and runes to the extreme, he would eventually have to turn to Divine Talismans. The Divine Talisman was the necessary path, and also the only path to the Great Dao.
Now, after obtaining the jade token from Ancestor Gu Hanyu, it could allow him to take fewer detours. Ten days later, Saint Master Gu Hanyu arrived and saw her courtyard adorned with greenery, looking full of vitality.
A slight smile appeared on Saint Master Gu Hanyu's face. Lin Moyu opened his eyes. "Have you explained everything clearly?" Saint Master Gu Hanyu nodded. "Everything is explained. Next, we just wait to announce that Hanjing will succeed as the Saint Master."
Lin Moyu asked, "Then what about our wedding?" Saint Master Gu Hanyu shook her head. "There is no need to hold any wedding. Our Hanshui Holy Land doesn't go in for that sort of thing. The Ancestor will explain it when the time comes."
"However, there are still some preparations to be made before that, which will probably take another half a month. But those things, the Ice Ancestor and the others will handle them; I don't need to participate. A huge Holy Land is about to change masters."
"It requires a lot of preparation work, and we also need to notify the various big and small leaders within our sphere of influence." Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Then, what do you plan to do during these half a month?"
He could tell that Saint Master Gu Hanyu must have come to find him for a reason. Saint Master Gu Hanyu said, "Since I took over as Saint Master, I haven't gone out much. Every time I went out, most of the time it was to kill people. Taking advantage of the fact that I still have authority over the origin spirit vein, I want to go and take a look around."
"To see the mountains and waters of the Holy Land." Lin Moyu could hear that Saint Master Gu Hanyu's burden had actually always been quite heavy. When she took office, it was right at the end of the great war between Hanshui Holy Land and Wen Dao Sect. At that time, Hanshui Holy Land was very unstable.
She employed tough measures and killed quite a few people. Over these years, she had been busy with the affairs of the Holy Land, and there hadn't been much time that truly belonged to her. If not for that, Saint Master Gu Hanyu should have long since become an Ancestor instead of idling away in the Dao Venerable 6th Realm. Lin Moyu said,
"I will accompany you." Saint Master Gu Hanyu smiled. "Ancestor Mei." Xiao Mei understood Saint Master Gu Hanyu's meaning in a second. "I will just practice here and wait for Teacher and Mistress to return."
Lin Moyu praised, "Your ability to observe and read the situation has improved. I'll bring you something delicious when I return." Xiao Mei giggled. "Thank you, Teacher. I wish Teacher and Mistress a happy trip!"
Saint Master Gu Hanyu said, "Then where shall we go for our first stop?" Lin Moyu thought for a moment. "How about we go to Lei City? I'll introduce someone for you to meet." Saint Master Gu Hanyu said, "Is it that person in Thunder Mountain?"
Lin Moyu nodded. "It's been many years. I don't know how Brother Tianlei is doing now. Also, those few in the Lei Family, I should go and see them too." Saint Master Gu Hanyu originally had no destination. "Then we choose Lei City as our first stop." She was very spirited and ready to go.
She immediately activated the origin spirit vein to teleport. With the origin spirit vein, half a month was enough for them to travel through most of the mountains and rivers within the sphere of influence of Hanshui Holy Land. In front of their eyes, colorful lights flowed, and brilliant colors streaked past like meteors. There was a smile in Saint Master Gu Hanyu's eyes.
Laying down the heavy responsibility of Saint Master was also a kind of release for her. For so many years, there had never been a moment as relaxed as now. Saint Master Gu Hanyu felt her small hand fall into a warm embrace. Lin Moyu held her hand, and with some force. She turned her head to look.
Lin Moyu's expression was grave, his eyes full of vigilance. Saint Master Gu Hanyu realized something was wrong. "What's wrong?" Lin Moyu said, "Someone interfered with the teleportation. We have entered a special space." Saint Master Gu Hanyu's face showed astonishment. "That's impossible, right?"
"Who could have this ability?" Lin Moyu's expression became increasingly grave. "I don't know." Relying on the Great Dao of Space and an extremely keen soul, Lin Moyu had sensed the change during the teleportation; they had entered a special space. Saint Master Gu Hanyu said, "Do you have a way?"
Lin Moyu shook his head. "There is no way for now. The space has already formed, and I can feel that this space is extremely solid. We can't get out; we can only wait and see, and counter moves as they come." Saint Master Gu Hanyu's expression also became grave. "How could it be like this?"
