I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 376: The little girl can cultivate now!

"Yes! Yes!"

Qin Fen quickly replied, but having just seen the worry on Gu Heng's face, Qin Fen had other thoughts in his mind.

Could it be that the girl came here without her master's knowledge?

Otherwise, this old monster probably wouldn't be so worried, but if her disciple disobeyed her master's orders or something, then he certainly had reason to be worried.

"Phew, thank goodness you knew, otherwise I would have turned this place upside down."

Gu Heng smiled, looking somewhat relaxed.

If he really couldn't find Qin Yiyao, he would definitely dig this place up to the bone, even if it would take a lot of time. But when he said that, Qin Fen was so frightened that he trembled.

This old monster is going to demolish the Primordial Secret Palace?!

It can't be!

There are so many opportunities and treasures here, and even the palace itself is extremely valuable, but if this guy says he wants to turn it upside down, then he probably really will.

He quickly said, "Please don't! That young lady will be alright!"

"Oh?"

Gu Heng's eyes flashed.

Qin Fen continued, "She won't encounter any danger, so you can rest assured."

"Are you so sure?" Gu Heng narrowed his eyes. "Don't lie to me, this place just doesn't look creepy to me."

Although the ghost in front of him didn't harm him and instead chose to avoid him, Gu Heng didn't let his guard down. Who said ghosts can't deceive? If he wasn't careful, he might get played to death.

"Absolutely not! You don't need to worry, she'll get what she wants soon."

Qin Fen made a solemn promise.

Anyway, that girl has a destiny with one of the immortal masters, so of course she'll take it. Although Qin Fen really dislikes her arrogant tone, that's the truth, and he can't change it.

However, it seems that the girl did this without consulting her master.

Judging from his appearance, he must have rushed over in a great hurry, fearing that something might have happened to his disciple. This reminded Qin Fen of his former master, who seemed to have the same impatient nature.

"Your wish has been fulfilled... What are you saying?"

Gu Heng frowned.

He didn't quite understand the meaning behind this nonsense. He had brought Qin Yiyao here only to see the scenery, and he had already achieved his goal. This Ancient Secret Palace was only decent on the surface; once inside, it was incredibly eerie. Even the people managing this place were ghosts. The little girl probably wouldn't like a place like this, would she?

However, Qin Yiyao said that she had gotten what she wanted.

"Uh……"

Qin Fen hesitated for a moment, but he still decided to be honest and explain: "Your disciple has a connection with an opportunity left behind by one of my masters before his death, so she should be inheriting this opportunity..."

Gu Heng was stunned, but then a complex feeling arose in his heart.

original.

Qin Yiyao's "wish fulfilled" means that she is now able to cultivate!

The ghostly figure before them used the word "opportunity." In this world, mortals never use such words. Only cultivators, especially those who were extremely powerful in life and did not want their life's learning to be buried with them after death, would pass on their life's learning as an "opportunity" to those who are destined to receive it. And these destined people must possess exceptional talent and perseverance to successfully cultivate.

And now...

Gu Heng suddenly realized that he seemed to have underestimated Qin Yiyao.

Or rather, he never even considered her.

Gu Heng never paid much attention to this girl's background or talent.

There wasn't much to worry about. He just treated it as picking up a girl to raise, adding another mouth to feed. After all, Gu Heng wasn't a cultivator; he only had the thinking ability of a mortal. If a cultivator picked up a girl on the street, he would probably check if she had any talent for cultivation, but a mortal wouldn't care so much.

If I can afford to support them, I'll just take them in; it's a way to accumulate good karma.

It seems Qin Yiyao is capable of cultivation, and coincidentally, she has been given a "fortune" to inherit. According to the ghost, the one who left the fortune was his former master. Qin Fen is truly loyal; his master is dead, and he himself is dead, yet he remains here to guard this palace for his master.

"How powerful was your master when he was alive?"

Gu Heng asked again.

Qin Fen was a little nervous, because this seemed to be a difficult question that could cost him his life.

This old monster is incredibly powerful; he must be at least at the Immortal Lord level. When he left behind these opportunities, those seven Immortal Lords were definitely not much different from him. But if you say that, he definitely won't be happy!

Why should one's own apprentice inherit the "opportunity" left behind by someone of equal skill level?

If he told this old monster that his strength was "about the same as yours," he would probably turn on him. But if he said that the immortals were stronger than him... Qin Fen didn't know whether the immortal lords had actually reached a higher level. If they hadn't, wouldn't that be deceiving him?

I'm going to get killed on the spot!

After thinking for a while, Qin Fen decided to express himself in the most conservative and vague way.

“My master was extremely powerful when he was alive, but I am just a servant. I cannot presume to know how powerful my master was.”

After hearing this answer...

Gu Heng frowned slightly, but then relaxed.

It seems that although this ghost was a cultivator in his previous life, he probably wasn't a very powerful one. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so afraid of seeing a mere mortal now.

But he said his master was very powerful in life. Gu Heng didn't actually need to know too much; he could understand just by looking at this ancient secret palace.

Just as Gu Heng had initially guessed, this breathtaking spectacle was not something ordinary people could create; only cultivators could have done it!

Cultivators are also divided into different ranks. Some low-ranking cultivators may not even live as well as I, a mere mortal. They live a life of hardship, eating and sleeping in the open, just getting by. They simply do not have the resources to build such a magnificent hall.

Therefore, Gu Heng guessed that the owner of this ghost was most likely a very important person in life!

The "opportunity" of such an important person—not only did Qin Yiyao get what she wanted, but Gu Heng also wanted to get what he wanted!

"It seems this little girl is about to undergo a transformation..."

His feelings were complicated. Gu Heng felt sympathy and relief for Qin Yiyao's plight, but now he was definitely a little envious.

After all, it's rare to see this little girl suffer on the streets for so long.

Now, she's finally made it through!
