"Come out."
To the east of a green mountain, Gu Ping lay on Yoyo's back, a piece of grass held in his mouth. At a fork in the road, he suddenly spoke.
The evening breeze brushed by, and a dry leaf that had long since withered fell at Yoyo's feet. Upon hearing Gu Ping's voice, Yoyo paused in its tracks.
No wonder he could defeat Tenglan, known as Zhongshang. Even his exquisite concealment techniques were discovered by me. I really can't figure out where Minghong went wrong.
Looking at the leaf transformed into a human shape, Gu Ping smiled and pointed at the trees overhead. "Winter is approaching. Although Chen Kingdom is located in the south, it can still be considered northern. All the leaves have fallen; how come only this one remains? It's so dry and lifeless, unlike the vibrant greenery around here."
"Thank you for your guidance, Brother. Bu Luo wishes to take his leave now; it's not too Coco anymore."
"What is my name?"
"Jiang Anbo, courtesy name Zongzhi. Everyone likes to call him Jiang Zongzhi."
Seeing Jiang Anbo dressed in luxurious clothing, Gu Ping felt that the man looked somewhat familiar. It was only after hearing Jiang Anbo introduce himself that he remembered; his attire resembled that of a nouveau riche from Lu Guoying, which made him smile slightly.
As Fei Qian continued walking north with an odd expression on his face, Gu Ping was nearing the borders of Chen Kingdom. The checkpoints there were certainly monitored by various sects' Eye Lines, allowing him to traverse the desolate wilderness. Fortunately, Yoyo's Pure World Fox aura deterred most beasts from attacking. Generally, when they sensed danger, even the demon king Bu Luo would show some respect to the Fox Clan. Thus, Gu Ping felt safer walking through the territory of demon beasts.
I won't ask him where he came from or why he wants to follow me; I'm just afraid he might sell me out. I can't shake the feeling that he could send a message to the Jade Void Sect right now, asking them to send someone to capture me.
Jiang Anbo chased after him from behind, constantly shouting in Gu Ping's ear.
"Since the moment he left Chen Kingdom, I've been right behind him. If he wanted to report my whereabouts, he would have done so long ago. Why wait until now? Gu Ping spat out a straw, and it seemed like I could be one of Light Path Classic's people. I just mentioned notifying the Jade Void Sect about my infiltration there, which was wrong. There aren't many who could arrive in such a short time. I don't deny that those participating in this Eastern Peak Demonstration might have something significant to say about the downfall of Light Path Classic."
I quickened my pace, fearing being pursued, yet I couldn't help but wonder why he insisted on following me.
Looking at the person in front of me, who was as calm as a machine devoid of emotion, Jiang Anbo felt a deep sense of helplessness for the first time. At that moment, he had no idea what Gu Ping was truly thinking.
They weren't far behind; everyone was ahead of him. By the time they began to close in on him, he had already used the territory of the demon beasts to leap out of their encirclement. In such vast terrain as Tiandong, where could they not go?
Gu Ping flicked his leg, and the Liangyi Sword flew out from nowhere, appearing right next to Jiang Anbo's neck, sending a cold sweat down his back.
As for me, I thought about speaking up, but whether he would listen was uncertain. So whether or not to speak depended on me; I had little interest in doing so.
Where should I go?
Watching the Liangyi Sword slowly return to Gu Ping's hand, Jiang Anbo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and asked, "Is there really a place where all Daoist Sects cannot reach?"
The Northern Triangle is indeed a good place, but have I ever considered that if I can think of it, so can the Daoist Sects? They could easily set up an ambush on my path; what would I do then?
He sought to tread a path that others could not foresee or traverse, ensuring that no one could obstruct him.
Well, Jiang Anbo spread his legs in resignation. There was something highly coveted that would appear among the prizes of the Sky East Tournament, and those Old Men hoped he could retrieve it for them. In exchange, The Book of Radiant Path could remain in his possession until he ascended to the heavenly realm or met his end.
If he went to Tiandong City, he would be at odds with all of Tiandong, but if he retrieved that item, it would be as if he declared to the entire world that he had entered the Light Path Classic. With The Book of Radiant Path in his possession, it would be equivalent to placing it in the hands of someone from the Light Path Classic. What would happen after his ascension?
He would decide based on the circumstances. Jiang Anbo pondered for a moment and then remarked that there were many people within the Daoist Sect, each with their own opinions; what he said was merely one of many perspectives.
Is that so?
Gu Ping closed his eyes, allowing the remnants of Falling Moon's glow to wash over his face, as if he were savoring that rare tranquility.
He understood that Jiang Anbo was indicating that the Light Path Classic was not as unified as one might think. Many held differing views, and what Jiang Anbo expressed was likely reflective of his faction's thoughts.
