Chapter 245 Lick it
Gu Qing'er crossed her arms and looked at Qian Renxue with a mocking expression.
"I really thought you had some powerful background, but it turns out you're just a crazy old woman who only knows how to yell and scream here."
"What do you think the Lord Sequence is? Do you think someone like you, a lowly servant from the lower realm, has the right to address him by his name?"
The servants around her shook their heads at the sight, looking at Qian Renxue as if she were an idiot.
In their view, Qian Renxue's actions just now were simply attention-seeking.
However, Gu Qing'er had barely finished speaking.
A muffled, thunderous sound came from the distant horizon.
At first, the sound was very faint, but in less than half a breath, the sound became like a stampede of ten thousand horses, causing the entire floating mountain to tremble violently!
"What's going on?!"
Gu Qing'er's expression changed, and she suddenly looked up.
A hundred miles away, a dazzling golden streak, too bright to look at directly, was tearing through layers of clouds at an incredible speed, hurtling toward the mountain where they were!
Behind that golden light followed a dense, dark mass of tens of thousands of inner sect prodigies and elders!
The terrifying pressure, even from more than ten miles away, felt as if it were a tangible force, making it almost impossible for these menial servants with only minor cultivation levels to breathe.
"It's...it's sequence number zero!"
In the crowd, someone, their teeth chattering, recognized the leader.
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Qing'er also saw the little one who had rushed over, and just one glance shocked her to the extreme.
That ferocious god who just slammed the pure-blooded black dragon into the ground is actually heading towards the servants' quarters?!
"Could it be..."
Gu Qing'er's gaze suddenly swept over Qian Renxue, who stood calmly to the side. An extremely absurd thought flashed through her mind, yet it sent chills down her spine.
Did he really hear it?
No!
That's absolutely impossible!
How could they possibly know each other?!
Gu Qing'er bit her lip hard, forcibly banishing the thought from her mind.
But soon her self-righteous thought process found a perfectly reasonable explanation for her.
"I see!"
Suddenly, Gu Qing'er became agitated, pointing at Qian Renxue and shouting sharply:
"It must be because you just addressed Lord Sequence by his given name, offending the divine authority!"
"What level of cultivation does Lord Sequence possess?"
"He must have noticed that someone was shouting and disrespecting the Celestial Court, so he came here personally to punish them!"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding servants were terrified.
Offending the Zero Sequence is a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of one's family!
"Quick! Get away from those two jinxes!"
"Don't drag us down with you!"
"Run!"
In an instant, hundreds of servants retreated as if avoiding a plague, clearing a large open space around Qian Renxue and Zhu Zhuqing.
Gu Qing'er's eyes darted around, and she immediately straightened her clothes, put on what she considered her most charming and respectful smile, and strode to the front of the crowd.
She wanted to hand over Qian Renxue, the sinner, the moment the Sequence Lord arrived, in order to gain credit!
If we can seize this opportunity to catch the eye of Lord Sequence, not only will we be able to leave the menial affairs department, but even becoming an inner disciple will be just a matter of a word from him!
"Bang!!!"
However, just as Gu Qing'er was dreaming of rising to a higher social status and becoming a phoenix.
The golden streak of light crashed heavily onto the bronze plaza in the servants' quarters.
Two deep cracks were etched into the hard bronze ground by the footsteps, and the shockwave, mixed with the lingering aura of the Kunpeng, swept outwards like a hurricane.
"Thump! Thump!"
Gu Qing'er and all the servants present were so overwhelmed by the terrifying physical pressure that their legs went weak and they all knelt down.
After the dust settled, a small figure holding a milk jug in one hand and a giant silver egg between the other appeared clearly in everyone's sight.
Although it was small in size, the invincible aura it had just generated by suppressing the pure-blooded true dragon made everyone present afraid to even raise their heads.
"Greetings...Greetings, Lord Sequence!"
Gu Qing'er knelt at the front, her voice trembling slightly with excitement and nervousness.
She swallowed hard, then immediately pointed at Qian Renxue and Zhu Zhuqing, who were standing alone at the back, eagerly claiming credit:
"Lord Sequence, please tell me clearly!"
"That was that lowly, ignorant servant from the lower realm who dared to address you by your name from a hundred miles away!"
"We have already placed her under guard and are preparing to hand her over to you for further action, sir..."
Gu Qing'er lowered her head, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn upwards.
She could almost see Qian Renxue's miserable end, being slapped into a pulp by Xiao Shihao.
However, one second, two seconds, three seconds passed.
Instead of the wrath of the Sequence Lord she had imagined, she heard only a series of extremely light and quick footsteps brush past Gu Qing'er's ears.
Gu Qing'er was slightly taken aback, and then she cautiously raised her head and glanced at it out of the corner of her eye.
She saw that the Zero Sequence, who was like a god of death in her eyes and had just hammered the True Immortal Black Dragon into the ground, didn't even glance at her before brushing past her and walking straight towards Qian Renxue, whom she regarded as trash.
Immediately following, under the incredulous gazes of hundreds of servants and tens of thousands of inner disciples who had just arrived in mid-air.
That fierce and invincible little devil actually raised a pure and innocent smile.
"Big sister, it really is you!"
Little Shi Hao happily jumped up and down twice, then held up the jade jar in his hand and generously handed it over:
"The beast milk that the Immortal Lord gave me is so delicious, do you want to have a sip too?"
Upon seeing this, the entire mountain where the servants' quarters were located fell into an eerie silence.
Only the occasional cries of celestial birds from high above sounded particularly jarring.
Meanwhile, Gu Qing'er, who was kneeling on the ground, had completely frozen her fawning smile.
Her eyes widened little by little, her eyeballs almost popping out of their sockets.
What did she hear?
That Zero Sequence, who doesn't even put True Immortals in his eyes and whose presence shakes the entire inner sect of the Primordial Immortal Court, actually calls that sweeping maid who's responsible for wiping the pillars "Big Sister"?!
He even offered her the top-grade beast milk bestowed upon him by the immortal lord.
"This, this is impossible..."
Gu Qing'er collapsed to the ground, her lips trembling so much that she couldn't utter a complete sentence.
On the other hand, the other servants who had just been jeering and isolating Qian Renxue and Zhu Zhuqing were now terrified and wished they could disappear into the ground.
"I'd like to drink it."
On the other side, Qian Renxue looked at Xiao Shihao's adorable appearance, a smile flashing in her eyes, before she reached out and ruffled his hair.
"However, I'll have to take care of a little thing here first."
After saying that, Qian Renxue slowly turned around, her eyes, as clear as autumn water, looking down at Gu Qing'er, who was slumped on the ground.
"Gu Qing'er".
"I remember that about half an hour ago, someone seemed to have made a bet."
"He has won now."
"You can start licking the floor tiles outside this bronze palace."
