Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

Chapter 302 The Grand Wedding? Not Allowed

With only two years left until the twenty-year agreement, Gu Qing returned quietly as always, and no one knew how Yun Yuyan and the others were doing.

Yuheng Island.

As luck would have it, Gu Qing encountered Yun Shu as soon as he arrived.

The other person's eyes lit up, and they rushed over before Gu Qing could even say hello.

"Senior Gu, it's been a long time! Where have you been? My aunt said you were in seclusion, why have you been gone for so long?"

Eighteen years is indeed a long time, even for a seventh-grade cultivator, but coming from Yun Shu's mouth, it's just a bunch of nonsense.

"You said I'm in seclusion, where could I possibly go?"

"Perfect timing! Is Yun Yuyan here? Could you show me the way?"

"Row."

Having completed this transformation during seclusion, Gu Qing only has two reasons to stay with the Yun Clan: first, to inherit Zhu Rong's legacy, which will be achieved in the secret realm competition two years later.

As long as Gu Qing helps the Yun clan gain enough benefits, even if it's just obtaining a partial or incomplete inheritance, that would be more than enough for him.

The second one is Yun Yuyan, the daughter of Zhu Rong.

In principle, he really wanted to take this female cultivator away, especially since he had decided to specialize in the Great Dao of Fire and use it as a foundation to develop the [Three Thousand Great Dao Flames], which required an extremely high level of mastery in the Dao of Fire.

If you have a partner who is equally skilled in this area, many problems will be easily solved, and things will be much more convenient.

However, strictly speaking, Gu Qing and Yun Yuyan have only spent a little over five years together. To be honest, it's not very certain whether she can get Yun Yuyan to give up her family and choose to follow Gu Qing.

The chances were even lower when she realized that the hope for the rise of the Yun clan's fire faction lay in herself.

Therefore, before going to see the Scorching Sun Ancestor, he wanted to talk to Yun Yuyan.

"correct."

Yun Shu led the way, then turned to Gu Qing and said, "You went public with your relationship with your aunt last time. So much time has passed. When are you planning to get married?"

Gu Qing paused, then chuckled, "Of course I'm willing. It depends on what Yu Yan thinks. If she marries me, she won't stay in the Yun family."

"Too."

Yun Shu suddenly realized: "You've stayed in the Yun clan for so long, I almost forgot that you're from the Tianhuang Domain. You'll have to go back sooner or later."

As he spoke, he suddenly winked and said, "Hey, have you ever considered marrying into my family?"

The sight of the red-haired girl with twin ponytails jumping around was so captivating that Gu Qing couldn't resist and turned her head to say something.

"It's impossible for me to marry into your family..."

Sudden.

Ahead along this narrow path appeared a beautiful figure dressed in red; it felt like yesterday, as if we hadn't seen each other for many years.

Her eyebrows were curved, her eyes were clear and bright, with a hint of autumn moisture, and her small, delicate nose seemed to wrinkle in dissatisfaction, instantly turning her originally cheerful features cold and stern.

It was Yun Yuyan; she had heard almost everything she said.

"Oh, what a coincidence, Auntie! I was just about to go find you."

Yun Shu, in a carefree manner, cracked jokes and tried to get away with it.

Gu Qing didn't have many reservations. He stepped forward, gently took the beauty's wrist, and whispered, "Have you thought it through?"

Yun Yuyan's expression was complicated, her eyes filled with both admiration and bitterness, revealing an indescribable emotion.

"The patriarch will not agree. I don't want to leave. The Fire Sect has finally seen hope after so many years. Shu'er is under too much pressure. She carries the hopes of too many people."

There were many reasons, and Yun Yuyan gave them in a fragmented manner, but Gu Qing could understand each one.

Clan cultivators are like this; besides considering their own needs, they also think about issues within the clan, and they rarely act solely based on personal preferences.

"No matter what decision you make, I'll always be there for you. I'll help you with the ancestor's side, but after that, you'll have to rely on yourself."

Although Gu Qing felt regret, she also felt a sense of relief.

To both want and not want, as if wanting!

This describes his current state: his head lowered, gently touching his warm lips, the two of them becoming intimate as if no one else was around, while Yun Shu, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed.

"No... I'm still here." The bleak sea breeze carried a cool and pleasant wind as flames rose from the ground, and by the time they dissipated, the two figures had already disappeared.

"You're in such a hurry, what's wrong with you..."

Yun Shu left, grumbling and cursing.

In the Fire Banyan Garden, the long-lost creaking sound returned, with only a few koi carp blowing bubbles. The sound of the bubbles bursting was like someone clapping their hands and sighing softly—"Excellent, excellent!"

Ancestral Hall of the Yun Clan.

The next day, Gu Qing, who rarely gets up early, hurriedly came here to visit the Scorching Sun Ancestor.

The other party seemed somewhat surprised.

"Long time no see, I thought you had left."

This is a joke, but it also expresses someone's dissatisfaction. After all, apart from Gu Qing fulfilling his promise at the beginning by suppressing the Starry Sky Sect, he has disappeared without a trace, let alone intensified his efforts.

Gu Qing, on the other hand, had an indifferent attitude.

"I've gone into seclusion, but I've made some progress."

"Regarding the matter of the secluded island, I will do my utmost to help the Yun clan secure their interests."

"At that time, the Yun clan will shoulder the pressure from the Gao clan and fulfill their promise to pass on the Zhu Rong lineage."

The Scorching Sun Ancestor frowned, but still explained.

"It's not that I don't believe you, but in the Western Sea, fire-path cultivators are indeed affected by the environment and find it difficult to unleash their full potential."

"Of the three coastal clans, the Gao clan is vaguely ranked first in power, and they have a large number of talented young people. If they unite, they will be very difficult to deal with. How can you guarantee that?"

"Also, have you decided when to hold the wedding with Yu Yan?"

Gu Qing nodded calmly.

"If I say I can handle it, then I can handle it. If I succeed, it will be beneficial to me."

"As for marriage, I am willing to marry."

"Marry?"

The Scorching Sun Ancestor snorted coldly, as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.

“Even the marriage between the Gao and Yun families was a case of the son-in-law being offered to them. What makes you think you can marry him instead of becoming his son-in-law?”

"Besides, the condition I agreed to your request was that your marriage with Yu Yan be finalized. If you don't marry into the family, why should my Yun clan pass on the Zhu Rong magic to you?"

That's the crux of the matter.

Gu Qing sighed softly. The sectarianism among the Twelve Immortal Sects was not so severe. The rules of the Immortal Clan, which had an orderly inheritance system, were much stricter, emphasizing that no one outside their own group was allowed access.

“She is my person. Even if I don’t marry her, we still have this relationship. I can compromise on the inheritance of Zhu Rong, and I can even accept the incomplete method.”

The Scorching Sun Ancestor seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world.

"relation?"

His eyes were piercing, practically screaming, "What are you? Are you even worthy of being passed down by Zhu Rong? What a joke!"

Feeling unappreciated, Gu Qing wanted to demonstrate his abilities and show them what a genius truly was.

Suddenly a voice rang out from outside the gate.

"No!"

The visitor was none other than the Star-Picking Ancestor.

The Yun Clan Ancestral Hall is the territory of the Fire Sect. The ancestors worshipped there are the ancestors of the Yun Clan who practiced the Fire Way, representing the orthodox lineage.

The Starry Sky Sect coveted this title, but it couldn't change the fundamental nature of the new faction. Its foundation was still shallow, and it couldn't change the mindset of many of the older generation in the clan.
