Chapter 115 The Calamity Black Dragon, the Mysterious Curse
The black dragon seemed to come alive, gazing at her and looking directly into her soul.
Bai Suying trembled all over, feeling as if her soul was about to shatter, as if she were being targeted by an extremely evil and wicked demon.
“Curse…curse…” Bai Suying said in a trembling voice, her eyes filled with terror.
She had once observed the Shi family from afar, and the evil aura they exuded was of the same origin as the ferocious black dragon on Gu Qing's back.
Could it be that Gu Qing is also under a curse?
"Don't panic."
Gu Qing pulled her out of her reverie, pulled her in front of him, looked at her terrified expression, thought for a moment, and casually made up an excuse.
"This is an ancient cursed dragon soul. I was the one who cast the curse on the Shi family."
"what?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Suying exclaimed in surprise.
Ancient cursed dragon soul?
What is this?
Bai Suying stared at Gu Qing for a while, then turned to look at the black dragon behind Gu Qing and asked, "Are you really not under a curse?"
"Of course not, do I look like I'm cursed?" Gu Qing retorted.
Bai Suying shook her head; it certainly didn't look like it.
She had seen the Shi family members from afar, who were cursed and looked ferocious, with demonic flames raging everywhere, like bloodthirsty madmen without reason.
In contrast, Gu Qing was upright and radiant, exuding an aura of transcendence and divinity.
Thinking of this, Bai Suying breathed a sigh of relief, her pale face gradually regaining color, and said with lingering fear, "That scared me to death."
She knew that even the sage ancestor of the Shi family had fallen victim to the curse, and even a powerful expert at the Divine Fire Realm couldn't erase it.
She couldn't imagine the consequences if Gu Qing also fell victim to it.
But then again, how could Gu Qing possess such a strange and unpredictable ancient cursed dragon soul?
Aren't you afraid of the backlash?
Bai Suying hesitated, but ultimately didn't say anything, since Gu Qing definitely knew more than she did.
Since they dared to accept the ancient cursed dragon soul, they must have been confident.
Thinking this, Bai Suying carefully observed the black dragon. It was so lifelike, as if it were a living black dragon, lying on Gu Qing's back, exuding an extremely evil and malevolent aura.
Bai Suying withdrew her gaze, not daring to look any longer. She silently circulated her inner energy to dispel the fear in her heart and softly recounted the situation of the Shi family.
At first, only a few people at the Void Dao Realm were affected, but within a day, everyone in the Shi family below the Void Dao Realm was affected.
As a result, the Shi family was transformed into a cursed wasteland, and even the King Realm and Venerable Realm cultivators who were in seclusion could not escape the calamity.
Only three Saint-level cultivators escaped and sought help from the outside world.
However, just a few days later, the three Saint Realm experts of the Shi family were also unknowingly cursed.
Everyone they had ever met was cursed, and none escaped it.
This matter caused a sensation throughout the entire Central Divine Realm at an extremely rapid pace.
After all, this curse is too bizarre and powerful, making it impossible to guard against.
Some of the previously unknown Divine Fire Realm experts, upon hearing this news, also appeared to investigate.
After all, a curse that even a Saint Realm expert cannot resist might be caused by some mysterious treasure, or perhaps the Qin family has a great secret.
At the very least, if one could control the curse, that would be an absolute trump card.
The ideas were good, but they all failed.
Although he was not cursed, he kept it a secret and gave his disciples a strict order not to enter the Shi family home.
He also spread the word far and wide, inviting all array masters to seal the Shi family away to prevent the spread of the strange curse.
All the families and lineages that the three Saint Realm experts of the Shi family had seen were sealed away, allowing entry but not exit.
After this incident, everyone became terrified of the Shi family's curse.
However, it also attracted many fearless cultivators to go and explore, seeking opportunities.
But without exception, none of them returned.
Bai Suying also went there once, not to rescue people or seek opportunities, but to scan the outside of the formation with her divine sense and remember the aura of the strange curse.
I thought that if I encountered this again in the future, I would run as far away as possible.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!" Gu Qing patted the back of her hand.
Bai Suying said all this simply to subtly remind him that such an evil and strange dragon soul could easily backfire.
Actually, even without Bai Suying's reminder, Gu Qing wouldn't have dared to use it if it weren't a system reward.
"It's good that you know!"
Seeing that Gu Qing still wouldn't give up on the Black Dragon, Bai Suying's eyes were filled with worry, but she didn't say anything more.
Instead, they started talking about some interesting things from the Middle God Realm.
"You're currently ranked number one on the list of geniuses in the Central Divine Realm."
"Oh? Really."
"Yes, and your fiancée Lin Chuqing is second on the list."
Gu Qing's powerful move back then shocked the entire Central Divine Realm, and it is still talked about today.
"By the way, a prodigy from the Qin family came to me, wanting to challenge you and asking for the coordinates of the Starry Sky Temple."
Bai Suying recalled a young man who appeared calm, composed, and easy to talk to.
However, Bai Suying could sense that Qin Shou's arrogance was ingrained in his bones, and that he regarded his peers as ants.
"Boring!"
Gu Qing chuckled lightly, not taking those so-called geniuses' challenges to heart at all.
Anyone who dares to provoke him will be slapped to death.
"You little rascal, he's not just trying to challenge you."
Seeing that Gu Qing was so indifferent, Bai Suying pinched him and said, "You killed his great-uncle and Chu Yao publicly broke off the engagement with him, making him lose face. He's here to seek revenge on you."
"Annulment of engagement?" Upon hearing the words "annulment of engagement," Gu Qing's spirits lifted.
Those who get their engagements broken off by the female lead are either villains or protagonists.
Gu Qing became interested and immediately inquired about Qin Shou's situation.
In short, Qin Shou started out as a good-for-nothing. Although he was the son of the family head, his status was even lower than that of the servants in the family, and he was often bullied.
It wasn't until he was jilted that he made a name for himself, awakening the Heavenly Overlord Body and becoming invincible among his peers.
Hearing this, Gu Qing was certain that Qin Shou was indeed her godfather.
"The news of your arrival at Qingfeng Sect has already spread. It won't be long before he comes to seek revenge," Bai Suying said.
"Okay!"
Gu Qing smiled. The protagonist was so considerate, offering himself up on his own initiative.
After getting dressed, Gu Qing walked out of the hot spring and came to the reception hall.
Soon, Chu Chong walked in with a smile on his face, accompanied by a lively and spirited young girl.
He looked at Gu Qing and exclaimed, "Nephew Gu's talent is truly unparalleled throughout the ages, unprecedented and unmatched."
Gu Qing smiled, too lazy to reply. He had no sympathy for Chu Chong, who sold his daughter for personal gain.
He asked directly, "Did you bring the seeds of the spiritual herb?"
Chu Chong's smile faltered for a moment, then he smiled again: "I brought him. My nephew Gu is a benefactor to my daughter. If she has any requests, my Chu family will definitely do everything in its power to help."
After saying that, he took out a storage ring and added, "There are two hundred million seeds here. If that's not enough, I'll go and get more."
"Yes, collect as much as you can, I want as much as you can."
Gu Qing put away the storage ring and also took out several hundred bottles of top-grade pills for him.
Chu Chong was overjoyed and solemnly said, "Nephew Gu, rest assured, I will definitely sell it for a good price and I will never let you suffer a loss."
Gu Qing hummed in agreement and picked up her teacup.
Serving tea and seeing the guest off... A hint of embarrassment flashed across Chu Chong's face.
As a Venerable Realm expert who also governs the vast Chu family, everyone who sees him must treat him as an honored guest.
Despite his lavish praise on Gu Qing, he was ruthlessly driven away.
Doesn't he want to lose face?
"Senior Brother Gu, I heard from my eldest sister that you are a ninth-grade alchemy master. Is that true? How did you do it?"
Chu Ling'er's bright and expressive eyes were filled with admiration.
She was an alchemist, and she heard that Gu Qingnian was already a ninth-grade grandmaster at a young age, and that his cultivation talent and combat strength were unparalleled in the world.
Chu Ling'er has admired Gu Qing for many years.
She was incredibly excited to finally meet her idol.
