Chapter 1172: Refusing the Temptation
The Dragon Chief finally arrived, and from afar he made a Taoist salute to Gu Dongxing: "Congratulations, Taoist friend, for advancing to the Golden Core Path."
Gu Dongxing languidly said, "Is the Dragon Chief here planning to drive into the Immortal Sect, or perhaps intending to capture into the Dragon Team?"
Upon hearing the voice, the Dragon Chief was taken aback. After a closer look, he recognized Gu Dongxing and couldn’t help but burst into laughter: "So it’s Gu Dongxing. Haha, you’re from the Folklore and Cultural Research Association, how dare I drive you away? But—"
The Dragon Chief’s lips curled into a cunning and satisfied smile: "In the future, you can retain your position at the Folklore and Cultural Research Association, but as for you, you’ll be seconded to the Dragon Team first. It’s customary, from now on we’ll be colleagues!"
Generally speaking, there are quite a few Qi Cultivators in the mortal world, but Foundation Establishnt Cultivators are rare, and a Golden Core Master is soone you might encounter only once in a hundred years.
And after cultivators form their core, even if they were originally with the Dragon Team, most are willing to enter the Immortal Sect, rarely staying in the mortal world, because the mortal world lacks Spiritual Energy and resources.
The Dragon Team might barely manage to find resources for Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, but it certainly cannot find resources for Golden Core Masters. Hence, even those Foundation Establishnt Cultivators originally under its command would move toward the Immortal Sect after core formation.
But with Gu Dongxing, it’s different. He’s certain Gu Dongxing won’t enter the Immortal Sect.
The Dragon Chief is confident that Gu Dongxing won’t enter the Immortal Sect based on several considerations:
Firstly, Gu Dongxing’s fiancée hasn’t ford her core yet (in truth, Nan ngyu has long ford her core, it’s just that the Dragon Chief couldn’t perceive it), and she’s still attending university, so even if he plans to enter the Immortal Sect, he will wait until Nan ngyu finishes her five years of university education.
Secondly, Nan Gong wants to kill Nan ngyu, and Nan ngyu gave Nan Gong a fierce blow, with Nan Xiao even handing Nan Gong over to the Dragon Team. Thus, Nan ngyu essentially offended the Nan Family Patriarch of the Immortal Sect. If they were to enter the Immortal Sect, the Nan Family certainly wouldn’t spare them. Therefore, others might want to enter the Immortal Sect, but the two of them definitely don’t want to go; even if they intend to, they would wait until they beco stronger before entering.
Thirdly, Gu Dongxing is passionately dedicated to the Folklore and Cultural Research Association and won’t leave it easily. Unless, he reaches seventy or eighty years old and attracts attention, forcing him to leave.
Just a couple of days ago, in order to prevent him from handing Nan Gong over, many resources were given to him, including a Nascent Condensing Pill, and even one hundred thousand low-grade Spirit Stones. With these three points, Gu Dongxing certainly won’t enter the Immortal Sect.
However, the third point is also a difficult one—it’s uncertain if they could extract him from the Folklore and Cultural Research Association.
Gu Dongxing naturally understood his intentions, but he had no plans to leave the Folklore and Cultural Research Association that he loved.
Displeased, he asked, "Do you think Master Ma would let go?"
Unexpectedly, the Dragon Chief’s lips pulled into an even broader smile: "You’re about to beco a Master, standing on equal footing with Master Ma. What qualification does he have to control you?"
Gu Dongxing was surprised to hear he was about to be promoted to Master: "Last ti you ntioned I might beco a Deputy Master, so how co this ti it’s changed to a full Master?"
The Dragon Chief said seriously, "How could a Golden Core Master serve as just a mber at the Folklore and Cultural Research Association? So, you can now be seconded to serve in the Dragon Team."
Gu Dongxing looked at the Dragon Team: "Is it a forced secondnt, or do I get to choose?" His tone carried a hint of danger. It made the Dragon Chief feel that if he didn’t speak the truth, he’d be in for trouble.
The Dragon Chief’s lips twitched: A Golden Core Stage Master, their martial power already stands at the pinnacle of this mortal world, who dares to say they can use force?
