C2003 Wu Qingdi's Disdain
Dugu Xueyu lowered her head and did not say a word.
Wu Qingdi's expression suddenly changed as she gently pressed Dugu Xueyu's hand.
"It's better to serve in Holy Maiden Palace than outside. We're immortals here, and mortals outside."
"In the Immortal Arts world, you should be well aware of how great the disparity is between an immortal and a mortal."
"More importantly, they have come into contact with the secrets of the Dugu Family. Once word of this spreads, it will greatly affect the reputation of the clan."
"From this, there are only two paths for a woman to walk out of Holy Maiden Palace. She will either die or become the concubine of someone who has contributed greatly to her family."
Wu Qingdi leaned back in her chair and calmly said, "For a woman who values her dignity, death is much better than being a concubine."
"So if you let them leave here, it would be no different from asking them to die."
When Dugu Xueyu arrived at Holy Maiden Palace, she focused on increasing her Cultivation Level. She didn't really ask about the presence or absence of the female attendants, she just felt that these girls were all staying at Holy Maiden Palace to delay their youth.
The world that Ye Lingtian spoke of, does it really exist?
The image of Ye Lingtian appeared in Dugu Xueyu's mind once again.
Wu Qingdi saw that Lili was lost in thought and said, "Xueyu, I'm very relieved to see your current Cultivation Level. However, I'm very worried about your current condition."
"As the future pillar of the Dugu Family, you should focus on the general flow of the Immortal Sect battle and not the maids around you."
"If you can't change this world, you have to learn that if you really want to make the people around you better, the only way is to become stronger."
"Do you want my tragedy to repeat itself?"
Dugu Xueyu lowered her head, gritting her teeth as she asked, "How is the battle royal?"
"Our vantage point is obvious. Otherwise, what's the point of all these years of my sacrifice?"
Wu Qingdi's face turned even colder as she recalled the unbearable memories.
"After this brat is done cleaning, the big boss behind the scenes will come out. This is also the reason why I am willing to pay any price to let you break through the peak of Immortal Cultivator."
"It's fortunate that you did it. Next, you will cultivate the unique mental cultivation method of Dugu Family to the Dominating Refinement realm."
"The cultivators with the best comprehension abilities are currently rushing to the mountain. It would be beneficial to your Cultivation Level to discuss with them for a while."
Dugu Xueyu nodded slightly. "I won't let your humiliation go to waste, and I definitely won't let Father's blood flow in vain."
Wu Qingdi was very satisfied with Dugu Xueyu's attitude. She gently caressed Dugu Xueyu's long, waterfall like hair. After a moment of hesitation, she still opened her mouth.
"You and that servant called Ye Lingtian have some relationship with Shangyin City, right?"
Dugu Xueyu was shocked by Wu Qingdi's words and hurriedly said, "Nothing like that."
Staring at Dugu Xueyu's somewhat cold face, Wu Qingdi softly replied, "Such a straightforward answer. I must have seen something unforgettable between the two of you."
"Actually, thinking about it carefully, it's normal. The deities also have a bit of feelings for the deity, how about a person?"
"You've suffered quite a bit at the Zheng Family courtyard. It's really not easy for Ye Lingtian to do so much for you."
Dugu Xueyu blushed as she mumbled, "I'm sorry. I know this kind of thing shouldn't have happened to me."
Wu Qingdi picked up the teacup, thought for a while, and put it down again, saying earnestly, "This kind of thing really shouldn't have happened to you."
"You know how to break through the peak of Immortal Cultivator, you should also know what it means for Ye Lingtian to come in here."
"From this, whether you have feelings or not, let him pass on the past."
Wu Qingdi paused for a moment before continuing, "If we can't cut off our emotional ties, then we must work hard to kill our enemies one by one."
"When my Dugu Family unifies the world of the Immortal Arts, with your profound strength, you will become a god of the world of the Immortal Arts."
"Isn't it just what you say? You can do whatever you want to do."
Dugu Xueyu responded with an 'oh', appearing to be well-behaved. "Yes, I will remember your words."
Wu Qingdi gently caressed the Longsword on the table and said softly, "Mother and daughter, if there's a way, I won't let you participate in this dispute. After all, there's still a way, isn't there?"
"Dugu Family is the pride of the Immortal Arts world, I don't want it to be reduced to a Frigid Smoke Mountain. As the starting point of the Immortal Arts, if I were to act in the same way as them, how would I be able to face the ancestors of the Dugu Family?"
Dugu Xueyu turned her head to look at Wu Qingdi, and asked quietly, "Are the Frigid Smoke Mountain that unbearable?"
"More than terrible? In order to protect themselves in the midst of the chaotic battle at the Middle Level Immortal Sect, the Frigid Smoke Mountain Gate was opened, and the Immortal Arts Sacred Grounds were turned into a place that everyone could enter. "
"For the current Sect Master, Tian Xue, to act in such a way, proves that her Frigid Smoke Mountain has run out."
Tian Xue? Dugu Xueyu shuddered. She found the name extremely familiar.
Oh right, it's the person that the world has a grudge with Ye Lingtian. Could it be that there's some sort of history behind this?
Seeing that Dugu Xueyu was lost in thought again, Wu Qingdi laughed: "Don't worry, with you here, Dugu Family will definitely not fall to the level of Frigid Smoke Mountain."
"Even if I don't know how many people are left in the Immortal Arts world, as long as they can break through the peak of the Heaven Rank Immortal Cultivator, no matter what time it is, there will still be a place for them in the Immortal Arts world."
Wu Qingdi's words were supported by reality.
In the chaotic battle of Nine Great Heavenly Cultivators a few years ago, he had lost nearly half of his Dugu Family's elites. Only now did it return to its previous level, and there was a faint trend of it becoming stronger and stronger.
This war in the Immortal Arts world, was, in essence, a war for revenge.
Dugu Xueyu nodded lightly, "Even if I have to use all my strength, I won't let my Dugu Family become the second Frigid Smoke Mountain."
Wu Qingdi smiled in a gratified manner and stood up, "I'll go over to Gao Jie's side. We fought well in the first battle. We have to be more beautiful in the second battle."
When Dugu Xueyu saw Wu Qingdi off at the door, she could not help but ask, "When did Tian Xue become the Frigid Smoke Mountain Sect Leader?"
A sect like the Frigid Smoke Mountain was but a small grasshopper in Wu Qingdi's eyes.
If it wasn't for the fact that her Frigid Smoke Mountain was famous, and she wasn't even qualified to become Wu Qingdi's topic, how could she have done a detailed investigation of the Frigid Smoke Mountain?
"Probably recently. Are you interested in Frigid Smoke Mountain?" Wu Qingdi asked.
Dugu Xueyu shook her head and replied in a clear voice, "No, it's just taking the place of those heroes who passed away from Frigid Smoke Mountain that are not worth it."
"Frigid Smoke Mountain is an existence of legends in the heart of the Ten Aristocratic Families. After all, Frigid Smoke Mountain is the origin of the Immortal Arts, and its history represents the history of the Immortal Arts world."
Wu Qingdi's mouth had a hint of disdain. Facing the rising sun, she replied indifferently, "My Frigid Smoke Mountain did not represent the Immortal Arts world for a long time now."
"Come closer, tell me, the Western Continent's Demon Sprite is trying to overturn the Immortal Arts's dominance in the Eastern Continent, and the one fighting is not Frigid Smoke Mountain, but my Dugu Family?"
"Let's talk further about who brought out the Immortal Arts, or my Dugu Family!"
"What's laughable is that even today, there are still a few short-sighted people who are still staring at the Frigid Smoke Mountain."
"Think about it carefully. If Frigid Smoke Mountain really has a supreme mental cultivation method, will it get worse every year?"
The golden sunlight shone onto Dugu Xueyu's cold face. Wu Qingdi looked at her incomparably beautiful daughter and said with a smile, "Being under pressure is a good thing, but don't be under too much pressure."
"Frigid Smoke Mountain is Frigid Smoke Mountain, and Dugu Family is always Dugu Family. The two cannot be compared together."
Dugu Xueyu raised her head to look at the blue sky as she watched Wu Qingdi's departing figure. Her intuition told her that this matter was definitely not as simple as what her mother had said.
Was he really going to send someone to check the Frigid Smoke Mountain? Dugu Xueyu didn't dare to say anything as she was afraid of touching something that she didn't want to touch.
As for what exactly these things were, Dugu Xueyu didn't know.
Maybe something is just intuition.
What Wu Qingdi said was right, Frigid Smoke Mountain had completely turned into the laughingstock of the Immortal Arts world.
Not only was the secret treasury that was previously viewed as part of the Immortal Arts's forbidden area now open to the public, even the people who were opposed to the decisions of the upper echelons had been cleaned up.
At first, everyone thought it was inconceivable. However, when they walked into the top tier secret chamber to take a look, they clearly understood the reason behind the decision of the newly appointed Sect Leader, Tian Xue, and also deeply sympathized with her.
As a top noble family that was on par with the Dugu Family in the past, they gnawed on the imperial calendar. They didn't even have a decent mental cultivation method, so what were those so-called elders of the Frigid Smoke Mountain eating?
Other than giving the only remaining fruit of Frigid Smoke Mountain to the world of the Immortal Arts, handing over this terrible mess to Tian Xue was truly limited of what she could do.
Of course, this also proved Tian Xue's extraordinary decision-making skills.
Most of the Immortal Sect that were sent to the Frigid Smoke Mountain were filled with greed. Seeing the current situation of the Frigid Smoke Mountain, everyone's disappointment was expressed in their words.
In the beginning, there had indeed been some people who suspected that the Frigid Smoke Mountain was hiding something. Tian Xue's series of decisions along with Female Cultivator's frail realms had caused everyone to doubt their abilities.
Who wouldn't have some face when they were in the Immortal Arts world? His Frigid Smoke Mountain had been greatly disgraced, yet he still doubted the sincerity of the other party.
Gradually, the number of cultivators that headed to the Frigid Smoke Mountain became fewer and fewer, until in the end, only a few rogue cultivators ran towards the Frigid Smoke Mountain.
To the top Immortal Sect, Frigid Smoke Mountain cultivation methods were trash, and to them, they were treasures.
In this kind of situation, the Frigid Smoke Mountain Sect once again displayed their "noble demeanor".
As long as it did not affect the Frigid Smoke Mountain leader's cultivation, no matter who it was, he would flip through any book he liked.
In short, Frigid Smoke Mountain were to go all out from here, becoming a public place throughout the entire world of the Immortal Arts.
Tian Xue stood on top of a mountain in Frigid Smoke Mountain, facing the swaying Little Blue Luan, and asked Zhou Zhizhi: "Has the thoughts of the core cultivators in the sect adjusted?"
Zhou Zhizhi replied respectfully, "I wasn't used to it in the beginning, but now I've mostly adjusted."
Tian Xue turned her head and smiled sweetly at Zhou Zhizhi, "Those that can't be adjusted, get rid of them immediately."
"Frigid Smoke Mountain must be concealed, and if one wants to fish in troubled waters, unable to make such a simple detour, it will only be a bad thing if used!"
Zhou Zhizhi nodded heavily. "I've already done that."
