Hongmeng Heavenly Book

Gu Changsheng looked at the young man, then took out a token from his pocket.

The young man's eyes narrowed.

"this."

Gu Changsheng said.

"I heard that holding this token allows one to join the Qingxuan Sect, is that true?"

The disciple stationed outside the Qingxuan Sect's gate suddenly changed his expression. He dared not be negligent and accepted the token with both hands.

After looking closely, I suddenly noticed a dark golden flower beneath the Azure Profound Token.

He looked surprised.

They clearly knew who the token came from.

She is a saint.

The white-clad youth who had just intercepted Gu Changsheng now had a bright smile on his face.

"Young man, you should have said so earlier."

"You have the Azure Profound Token."

Gu Changsheng looked at him.

The young man in white smiled and said, "With this Azure Profound Token, you can naturally join the Azure Profound Sect."

"Are you going to join the Qingxuan Sect?"

Gu Changsheng nodded.

"it is good."

"I'll take you to report to the elders right away," the young man in white said with a smile.

That young lady was able to hand over the Azure Profound Token to the young man before her.

This person is definitely not simple.

They are not people that these gatekeeper disciples can afford to offend.

Naturally, it's important to cultivate good relationships.

"Okay, thank you," Gu Changsheng said with a smile.

"You're welcome, it's nothing."

The young man in white was taken aback. Why was this person thanking him? It was only right.

He quickly waved his hand.

Afterwards, the young man in white led Su Han into the Qingxuan Sect.

After entering the Qingxuan Sect, Gu Changsheng and the white-robed youth became acquainted.

The young man in white is named Li Lie, and his current strength is at the peak of the eighth level of the Spirit Sea Realm.

Gu Changsheng also learned some of the rules and regulations of the Qingxuan Sect from Li Lie, but for Gu Changsheng, these rules were just for show.

He naturally didn't care.

"Brother Gu, you must be careful as you are new to the Qingxuan Sect."

Li Lie said earnestly.

Gu Changsheng asked, "Why?"

Li Lie pondered for a moment, then looked around and, not seeing anyone, said, "I also joined the Qingxuan Sect as a newcomer."

"When a newcomer joins the Qingxuan Sect, many senior members will approach you."

"They're making you run errands for them, even if it's just the resources the sect allocates to you each month."

"They'll take it too."

A smile appeared on Gu Changsheng's lips: "Don't sects care about these things?"

Li Lie shook his head: "The sect won't interfere."

"As long as no one dies, there's no problem."

"Moreover, many of those who can join the Qingxuan Sect are scions of prominent families from the surrounding area."

"They're all incredibly domineering."

"I've had my share of resources taken away from me before."

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng remained calm, a playful smile playing on his lips.

This kind of resource-grabbing drama suits him very well.

"So, Brother Gu, you should be careful."

"Sects are different from the outside world."

"It's the same dog-eat-dog world."

"If you are strong, you will naturally be respected."

"If you are weak, many people will enjoy watching you make a fool of yourself."

"Like me..."

At this point, Li Lie gave a wry smile: "I've been in the Qingxuan Sect for three years, and all I've managed to get is the title of a gatekeeper disciple."

"In the eyes of many geniuses and prodigies, we are just watchdogs."

"We know very well the way they look at us."

"Looking down from a high position"

"They don't treat us like human beings."

Gu Changsheng nodded.

He was well aware of this.

This world reveres martial prowess.

The strong can split mountains and shatter rocks.

Similarly, there is no logic to this; as long as you are strong enough, the logic will be right there with you.

He understands very well that you can only go further by following this rule.

As they talked, they arrived at a pavilion outside the gate.

This pavilion is where disciples of the sect are registered.

The elder in charge of the pavilion glanced at the Azure Profound Token, then at Gu Changsheng, and without saying much, examined Gu Changsheng's age and cultivation level before granting him the status of an outer disciple.

After successful registration, the elder gave Gu Changsheng another identity token and a key to his residence.

Everything is going smooth.

The elder then arranged for Li Lie to take Gu Changsheng to his dormitory.

Congratulations, Brother Gu.

"Successfully joined the Qingxuan Sect."

Li Lie said excitedly.

Gu Changsheng smiled but didn't say anything.

The two soon arrived at the dormitory.

The dormitory area is also very large, after all, the Qingxuan Sect is one of the five major powers in the Eastern Region.

"Um?"

"Li Lie, how did you get into the dormitory area, you watchdog?"

"I remember the watchdogs' quarters should be at the main gate."

"This shouldn't concern you."

At that moment, a discordant voice slowly drifted over.

"Um?"

Gu Changsheng and Li Lie looked in the direction of the sound.

Not far away.

A dozen or so outer disciples walked over.

The leader was a burly, nonchalant young man with a flippant gaze, looking at Li Lie with a hint of amusement.

Li Lie's face turned grim: "Zhao Kun."

He felt extremely humiliated, especially when he heard the other party call him his watchdog.

"The elders arranged for me to lead the newcomers to the dormitory area."

Li Lie responded truthfully.

He couldn't afford to mess with this guy.

Zhao Kun's smile widened: "Newcomers are still coming these days? That's quite rare."

"The last time disciples were recruited was six months ago, and the next batch of people should be coming in six months from now. Why are they being placed here now?"

He looked Gu Changsheng up and down, his eyes filled with contempt and malice.

"Brother Gu, I'm afraid I've dragged you into this," Li Lie said, looking rather unwell.

Gu Changsheng: "What's wrong with this person? Do you have a grudge against him?"

Li Lie said in a low voice, "When I first became a gatekeeper disciple, I stopped a strange woman who wanted to enter the sect. I never expected that she would be Zhao Kun's Daoist partner."

"Zhao Kun therefore concluded that I was disrespecting him, and from then on, he frequently caused me trouble."

"But I really don't know that woman. It's our duty as gatekeepers that no one may enter the sect without a token or notification—that's the sect rule."

"If we negligently let in outsiders and cause any trouble, that would be our dereliction of duty. I was just following the rules; how could I have known I would offend Zhao Kun..."

Gu Changsheng nodded.

I see.

"I don't care why you entered the dormitory area, but you still didn't heed my warning before, don't let me see you in this area near the outer gate."

"You've broken the rules now, so kneel down and bark like a dog a few times, and I'll let you go."

Zhao Kun grinned maliciously.

Li Lie's face was grim.

Then Zhao Kun looked at Gu Changsheng with a mocking gaze: "How about this, you're a newbie, so I won't bully you."

"But you must hand over your ring."

"The contribution points from the tasks completed each month also need to be handed over."

"Otherwise, I'll make you question the meaning of life."

His face was contorted with rage, and his smile was sinister.

Gu Changsheng looked at him.

Am I being threatened like this?
