Why is my Hundred Lifetimes Book different?

"My lord, this is the residence of an old friend of mine, called the Xuan Turtle Palace."

Gu Weiqiu led the two men, using earth-based techniques to travel nearly ten thousand miles, until they reached a bottomless, misty abyss.

He tossed out a jade talisman, and a cave entrance appeared in the mist.

Liu Fangyuan hesitated for a moment, but still followed him in. The cave entrance was narrow at first, but then it became wider and wider. After walking a short distance, there were two guards on the left and right. They looked like... members of the Immortal Sect.

"Who are these people?"

Liu Fangyuan transmitted his voice using divine thought.

"They are all guards. This Xuan Turtle Palace Master was once a great cultivator in our sect, skilled in weapon crafting, and his surname is Qi."

"Disliking Tiandu, I simply came here to live in seclusion. This underground palace is a top-tier magical treasure."

Gu Weiqiu responded with a smile.

Liu Fangyuan's heart skipped a beat. If he wasn't mistaken, this surname belonged to the royal family of the Great Qi.

The royal family and the immortal sects share the world, one governing mortals and the other governing cultivators. The specific reasons are unclear, but it seems to involve the cultivation path of a certain great cultivator.

Cultivators are forbidden from killing mortals; this is one of the rules of the Immortal Sect.

Over the years, they have lived peacefully together.

Upon entering the Xuan Turtle Palace, Liu Fangyuan was suddenly struck by a dazzling sight: exotic flowers and rare herbs bloomed, the sun, moon, and stars swirled around, beautiful maids danced gracefully, and the aroma of wine and meat filled the air.

But it is not an illusion!

It's a real little world!

A very noble-looking, middle-aged, refined monk, dressed in a brocade robe, lay lazily on a bamboo chair, with two maids on each side massaging his shoulders and legs, thoroughly enjoying himself.

"Qi Jun, hahaha, these two are our ministers. Lord Liu Fangyuan is a trusted confidant of the Jin family, and Gongsun Hanhai is the eldest son of the Gongsun family."

"I came to Tianxu to carry out a mission."

"My lord, Brother Hanhai, this is Lord Qi, courtesy name Xiaoyao. He is a very hospitable and kind-hearted man."

Gu Weiqiu seemed remarkably familiar with the situation, introducing himself without any hesitation.

"Please sit wherever you like."

"I haven't had any customers for a while. What, does Jin Qianyuan dislike me? Are you trying to send someone to find me?"

Qi Xiaoyao said with a smile, clearly not taking the Jin family head seriously at all.

Liu Fangyuan's heart trembled slightly.

What kind of major overhaul is this?

Foundation building?

At least at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining!

Their strength is unfathomable, and their boasting is terrifying!

With a bright smile, Liu Fangyuan cupped his hands in response: "Lord Qi is joking. It's just that the Immortal Sect's cultivation technique pavilion sensed that the Five Ghosts Tribulation Path had appeared in this Fangtianxu. Even the Heavenly Rainbow Restriction failed to kill it, so they specially sent us here to investigate."

"Ha. The Five Ghosts' Robbery of Fortune! What utter nonsense about the Five Ghosts' Robbery of Fortune! It's actually the Five Gods of Wealth's Path!"

"Jin Qianyuan's actions were extremely unethical; he's a hypocrite with a sanctimonious facade! No wonder these brainless body cultivators in Tianxu call your Qinghua the Demonic Sect!"

"After eating, you still have to poop in the pot! That's inhuman!"

Qi Jun dismissed it with disdain.

Liu Fangyuan had no choice but to force a smile and repeatedly agree.

This matter is of great importance and cannot be decided by me alone, but since this Lord Qi insists on saying so, I can't say anything.

"I won't help you with this!"

"Go ask whoever wants help!"

Qi Jun waved his hand, indicating that he was about to see the guest out.

Seeing this, Gu Weiqiu immediately ran towards him, taking over the maid's job, kneeling on one knee, and massaging his legs: "Lord Qi is insightful, and we naturally know what you're saying. However, there are orders from above—rank can be absolute. Lord Qi, please understand that we have no choice. The matter of the Five Ghosts Stealing the Fortune is being closely monitored. The investigation has found it to be on the summit of the snow mountain. Lord Qi, do you know if the Barbarian Finger has been making any unusual moves lately?"

Qi Xiaoyao glared at him.

"You scoundrel... You arrogant cultivator, with his unrestrained Dharma body, wander around naked atop that snow-capped mountain all day long. Why should I look at him? It's an eyesore!"

"However, I do find that magical finger technique quite interesting... What do you say, my beauty?"

Qi Xiaoyao patted the female cultivator next to him lightly, seemingly oblivious to others, and spoke in a vulgar manner, causing the female cultivator to tremble and blush.

Gu Weiqiu... couldn't help but smile wryly.

I had forgotten about that.

This Qi Jun possesses a unique supernatural power called "Heavenly Vision and Earthly Hearing," which allows him to monitor the heavens and earth and see even those separated by millions of miles. It is one of the most powerful supernatural abilities.

This method is truly wondrous.

However, his reason for refusing was, of course, both laughable and absurd.

"Qi Jun, I recently found another group of female cultivators in Jiao Su City. They are criminal cultivators who were exiled after the Zheng family was destroyed... Among them is a legitimate daughter of the Zheng family who cultivates the Ice Skin Jade Bone Visualization Method."

Gu Weiqiu gritted his teeth and whispered in Qi Xiaoyao's ear.

Qi Xiaoyao's eyes flickered slightly, but his expression suddenly changed, and he stared at him coldly.

"You call yourselves the Demonic Sect! You truly are the Demonic Sect!"

"So this is a Foundation Establishment clan after all. Even with the patriarch dead, the women of the family are still subjected to such humiliation?"

Gu Weiqiu was surprised by his sudden change of attitude. Suddenly remembering the man's past, he was at a loss and secretly lamented his predicament.

Qi Xiaoyao's younger sister was sacrificed by her family to become a furnace for a powerful cultivator. Disheartened, she cut off her future from the royal family and the immortal sects and came to Tianxu to live in seclusion.

This matter has likely touched a raw nerve with him.

"Lord Qi...please calm down!"

"I was thinking that this girl was pitiful and should be humiliated by others, which would be too unpleasant. It would be better to send her to you so that you can cherish and care for her, which would be a good deed."

Gu Weiqiu's mind raced, and he immediately smiled and said.

Without his silver tongue, he wouldn't have been able to thrive in this Heavenly Ruins.

Upon hearing this, Qi Xiaoyao glanced at him again, his anger subsiding, and he simply sighed softly.

The trees fell and the hozens scattered.

With the building crumbling, the women in the family are left to be slaughtered at will.

What can be done about this?

Liu Fangyuan and Gongsun Hanhai dared not utter a word at this moment, for fear that they might offend Lord Qi again by saying the wrong thing.

Gu Weiqiu's leg-pounding motion remained neither too light nor too heavy, patiently waiting.

This one... is actually easy to please.

A dozen or so breaths passed.

Qi Xiaoyao's ears twitched slightly.

His eyes lit up slightly.

With a slight pinch of the fingers.

Reach out and point.

In an instant, a water mirror appeared in mid-air.

The three of them immediately saw that an illusion array had been formed on the summit of the snow-capped mountain, with gray clouds and mist floating around, and nothing could be seen inside.

Heaven sees and earth hears; with what it can do, it also cannot do. Where the eyes cannot see, even supernatural powers cannot see.

However, a faint sound could be heard.

"My lords, cultivate diligently! Now that we have become disciples of our master, we have a solid foundation. But let me make this clear: if you don't work hard, I'll beat you to death!"

It was a rough voice, accompanied by a chorus of responses.

It should be an elder instructing a younger person in practicing martial arts.

besides……

There were also two clear male voices.

"Brother, Senior Manzhi, how long will you be gone this time?"

"I don't know either. Six hundred thousand miles, it'll probably take a month or two. What do you want to say?"

"This senior truly trusts us five siblings. He's even left us the cultivation techniques and spirit stones to manage. Isn't he afraid we'll pack up and run away?"

"Ha, don't be so petty. Even if you told me to run, I wouldn't. These past few days have truly been the most comfortable time for me since we fled into the Heavenly Ruins. Now that the Daoist lineage is established, we will naturally follow. One day, we will fight our way back to that Demonic Sect, wipe out those self-serving, scheming scoundrels, and rebuild Qinghua!"

Underground palace.

Although they couldn't see who the two people in the illusion array were, Liu Fangyuan, Gongsun Hanhai, and Gu Weiqiu were all somewhat taken aback upon hearing these words.

Qi Xiaoyao couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"There are gods watching from above, hahaha, did you hear that? I'm cursing you..."

"Those who abuse their power for personal gain and engage in petty and despicable acts."

"This Manzhi is quite an interesting person. He actually established a lineage? And he even wants to rebuild Qinghua?"
