Goodness, back in the day, Baili Yu ventured into the Central Netherworld rely to leverage its power to resist the Demon Sect’s forces, never intending to target the Taiyin Emperor.
What Gu Sansong has sched is none other than the entire Nine Nethers of the Peaceful Realms!
In comparison, the Central You Dynasty is hardly even worth his attention?
Earning favor through deceit is utterly reprehensible.
Baili An glanced at Ying Ji instinctively, only to find her staring straight ahead with a composed deanor, as if she had just heard a dog barking, her face unperturbed.
Baili An wondered if Ying Xiu was aware of the sordid sches within Gu Sansong’s heart. Although his heart raged with anger, he could not express it on his face and had to maintain his composure, smiling with a bare semblance of humor:
"Alliance Hierarch Gu speaks so eloquently, but I am no fool. If Alliance Hierarch Gu truly had such intentions, why would he grant such treacherous gifts like the Six Spirit Roots? Now, my body is depleted and exhausted by these roots and I won’t live for many years.
I recall that Alliance Hierarch Gu lacks neither wives nor descendants. Despite being born a loose cultivator, you married six ladies from eminent Immortal Sects.
I hear that you have nine sons under your belt, and even more daughters, a total of twenty-three. How can I be sure that Alliance Hierarch Gu truly regards as his own? Dare I say, your day of glory and imperial conquest will be the mont my mother and I et our demise?"
Gu Sansong turned his teacup, his tone calm yet serious: "I may harm Ying Ji, but I have never thought of killing her."
He raised his eyes to Baili An, with emotions deep and ancient brewing in them, and replied in a tranquil manner: "Actually, in truth, the first person with an outsider’s identity to set foot in the Central Netherworld during ’Night Rain Seeking Flowers’ was not Baili Yu, but ."
Gu Sansong chuckled self-deprecatingly and continued: "But what am I? A naless nobody, Baili Yu is from a prominent lineage, foremost among the Seven Princes of the Country of Qin, apprenticed to the Xijian Sect, a leader in Sword Dao. With a single sword in hand, he stord through thirteen cities of the Central Netherworld without a leaf touching him, winning the Empress’s heart — a true rogue swordsman, his legendary deeds known far and wide, lauded by all, whereas I, ’Seeking Flowers in the Rain,’ could only earn mockery from those little Heroic Spirits, overreaching ambition, a toad lusting after a swan. Just to see her once was nearly impossible."
At this point, Gu Sansong’s expression turned gloomy and formidable, his self-mocking smile gone: "Why should the one I long for endlessly be subjected to others’ scorn and ridicule? She was the bright moon in the heavens, yet she chose to debase herself. She could have had a perfect and sincere relationship by my side, but she opted for a deceiver, disgracing herself! If not for this, why would she end up bereaved, disconnected from her child, and mad with delusion?"
"On the day Ying Ji married into Tianxi, I swore that one day, I would establish a grand Immortal Alliance in the Four Seas and Eight Desolates, and make the fools who underestimated loose cultivators bow at my feet! I will let Baili Yu know that Ying Ji’s best destiny is not with him, but with , Gu Sansong!"
Baili An taunted with a snide smile: "I never knew that the hierarch of Wandao Immortal Alliance was such a passionate and straightforward person."
Gu Sansong, with ambition still brimming in his eyes, nodded and smiled at Baili An, saying: "Each mortal is ordinary, only my beloved is transcendent. The whole world is like the stars, yet she is the brilliant moon, supported by all stars, exceptionally shining. Even if she marries and becos a mother, Ying Ji remains the only one cherished in my lifeti. As for the others, true, I have married six from eminent families, with nurous children, but these people are just supports in my cultivation journey, insignificant pawns in my planned future order. If Ying Xiu feels my sincerity is lacking, why not give so ti to prepare, and soon you will see my pledge. If you wish, I can have but one wife and one child."
Observing this man casually sipping tea, seemingly indifferent, as if his closest people are re rusted and rotten nails, ready to be crushed and discarded.
But Baili An rembered, those six ladies he married were all daughters of notable families, with influential backgrounds in the Hundred Immortal Sects, possessing outstanding spirit root qualifications.
It could even be said that the scale of Wandao Immortal Alliance today owes much to his six wives.
Rumors circulate that the six ladies of Wandao Immortal Alliance are considered paragons of virtue, not only refraining from jealousy or conflict but persuading their families to staunchly support Wandao Immortal Alliance, wholly devoted to Gu Sansong, bearing offspring and dedicating their lives.
Ironically, Gu Sansong begrudges that Ying Ji entrusted herself to the wrong person, degrading herself, yet it seems that those six ladies married to him haven’t respected themselves much better?
He claims to offer a complete and sincere relationship at his side.
But to Baili An, Gu Sansong’s affection seed too cheap to stoop and pick up.
Regarding Gu Sansong’s overflowing sincerity, Baili An only felt it laughable, intentionally turning to his mother for guidance, pretending humility, saying: "Little Ying, what do you think of this matter?"
