Gu Feng felt a little anxious and rushed over at a breakneck pace. Strangely, just as he got moving, Su Mujin started heading in his direction. Could it be that he missed me too much after not seeing each other for a couple of days? Reality soon proved that Gu Feng was thinking too much.
“Gege, run!” Su Mujin panted as he appeared within Gu Feng’s field of vision, followed by a horde of over a hundred female cultivators chasing after him.
What was all this? Didn’t they say sound transmissions weren’t permitted within the array? Had the Hundred Flowers Palace cheated?
In truth, Gu Feng had misunderstood the Hundred Flowers Palace. Sound transmissions were indeed forbidden, but the techniques practiced by the disciples of the Hundred Flowers Palace were unique in that they allowed the practitioners to sense each other. It had to be said that, in regards to this point, the Hundred Flowers Palace had truly engaged in some subtle strategy.
“Don’t run, Blossom Holding Gongzi!”
“It’s not like we’re a bunch of terrifying monsters, hehe.”
“That’s right, we don’t mean any harm. Gongzi, we just want to get to know you a little better, that’s all.”
“Xiao Jin, don’t run anymore. Come over here.” With so many people trying to steal Su Mujin away, Gu Feng felt compelled to take action.
Hearing this, Su Mujin felt doubtful. If he didn’t run now, then when would he run? But he had always trusted Gu Feng’s word, so he still obediently followed his directions.
As soon as he went over, he was directly pulled into the other person’s embrace. Following that, a storm of kisses rained down on him. Su Mujin’s first reaction was to resist. This was really not the time or place for kissing.
But as soon as he resisted, the other person’s kisses became even more fierce, sucking on the tip of his tongue until it became numb. He continued to put up a bit of a token struggle before giving in. Since resistance was futile, he might as well enjoy the kisses!
Gu Feng directed several sidelong glances at the shocked female cultivators, and felt immense satisfaction. His tongue delved deeply, mingling the pair’s saliva and he only stopped once Su Mujin had nearly fainted from the stimulation.
“Have you seen enough?” Seeing that his objective had been achieved, Gu Feng finally showed some mercy and released Su Mujin.
Only now did the horde of female cultivators return to their senses. They felt like their eyes had nearly gone blind and their outlook on life had been greatly impacted. Wasn’t it said that these people were single? That annoying list of ‘The World’s Top Ten Most Beautiful Men’ was too deceptive!
“How outrageous! You should’ve said so earlier if you weren’t available.”
“That’s right, wasting all of our time for nothing.”

The female cultivators gritted their teeth in frustration. Wuying Pavilion was too sloppy about collecting information, making them fall in love in vain. They’d never buy any information from Wuying Pavilion again. As these whispers spread amongst the crowd, the poor Wuying Pavilion was blacklisted just like this by the female cultivators of Hundred Flowers Palace.
“Why don’t you come out now, my friend. You’ve been watching for a long time and a good man doesn’t skulk about!” After the horde of female cultivators had left, Gu Feng suddenly called out into their empty surroundings.
Right after he finished speaking, a figure slowly apparated. Dressed entirely in black, their sharp features were particularly cold and they were actually a cultivator at the early stage of Demigod! Gu Feng recalled that this person had been forty-ninth on the list of names. His strength was in the lower middle range amongst the Demigod cultivators, and he had mastered the long whip.
“The two of you amaze me! The son of the honorable Taixu Sect Master actually turned out to be a homosexual. I can see you’re not afraid to be laughed at when this gets out. I won’t make things difficult for you – hand over all of your competition tokens and I’ll let you live, otherwise don’t blame me for being impolite!” The man said this in a mocking voice, obviously not considering the two peak stage Nascent Soul cultivators to be his opponent.
“Your Excellency speaks with vigor, but it is this humble one who shall be impolite.” Gu Feng had been deliberating over whether he should leave any competition tokens for the other later, but now it seemed entirely unnecessary. Being this arrogant, it was only right to teach him a lesson.
He took out a weapon he’d obtained from the spiritual ruins that went by the name Xuanxin Sword. The blade was entirely jet-black and engraved with ancient patterns – it was a top grade spiritual weapon with incredibly fierce attack power. The Celestial Spirit-Devouring Disc was too eye-catching, so Gu Feng only used it as a last resort. He grabbed the sword and launched his attack. Against this type of scum, the sword was plenty.
The man angrily extended his whip to attack Gu Feng’s face. In the blink of an eye, the two of them had exchanged over a hundred moves. The man grew shocked when he realized that his opponent was also in the early stage of Demigod. Since the other side had two people, yet he was alone, it would be unwise of him to waste time and remain.
“Want to run?!” Sensing that the other party intended to retreat, Gu Feng directly attacked his opponent’s whip as he also activated the Spirit Devouring Celestial Method. Very soon, the long whip lost its spiritual energy and snapped in two as if it had been cut apart by a sword.
The man was astonished. The whip was a top grade spiritual weapon, but now it had been cut to pieces. His opponent’s strength was far beyond his imagination. He gritted his teeth and threw out all of his competition tokens, and was ejected from the array. Competition rankings weren’t losing his life over.
Gu Feng quickly retrieved the man’s competition tokens and pulled Su Mujin to run away. The fight just now had attracted the attention of several cultivators. If they stayed they risked being surrounded.
The two people ran for several hundred li before stopping. Only then did Gu Feng have time to make an inventory of the competition tokens – there were exactly one hundred and fifty. It would seem that the man had spent the last few days robbing those with a low cultivation. Adding on the original fifty tokens in Gu Feng’s possession, it was enough for a person to advance to the next round.
“Xiao Jin, these are for you.” Gu Feng gave the majority of them to Su Mujin, keeping only a few for himself.
Su Mujin was quiet for a moment before accepting them. He felt determined to snatch some more tokens to give to Gu Feng.

“Oh? Sect Master Gu, your son is already in ninety-ninth place. He really deserves to be…” The Palace Master of Hundred Flowers Palace hadn’t even finished her words when she trailed into a stunned silence, her eyes widening. Gu Feng’s name had suddenly disappeared from the rankings, only to be replaced by Su Mujin’s name. She somewhat awkwardly touched her nose and coughed, “I’ve long heard that your esteemed son has a very good relationship with one of his martial brothers. Today, I can definitely see that those rumors aren’t false!”
Gu Hanshan’s expression was indifferent, as if the person being remarked on wasn’t his son but rather a stranger.

In the following week or so, Gu Feng and Su Mujin swept along, defeating many Nascent Soul cultivators. During this time, Su Mujin worked especially hard, taking every opportunity to refuse to let Gu Feng take action. It was clear from his actions that he wanted to personally gather at least two hundred competition tokens to gift Gu Feng.
“Recently the number of cultivators we’ve run into has dwindled and most of them aren’t strong either, so we’ve only gotten one hundred tokens.” Su Mujin said dejectedly.
Gu Feng thought he was funny and patted Su Mujin on the head. He said gently, “Don’t worry, there will be fewer and fewer people as time goes by, but toward the end any random one we meet should have quite a lot of competition tokens in their possession.”
“Huh? There are some spiritual energy fluctuations ahead of us to the left. The fluctuations are pretty big, let’s go check them out!” Su Mujing quickly became spirited. Finally, there was another chance for him to show off. His enthusiastic response was just like a dog excitedly wagging its tail.
“Cough cough, okay!” Gu Feng had difficulty suppressing his laughter, and could only cough violently to cover it up.
The two people came to the valley where the spiritual energy fluctuations were being emitted and saw several dozen Nascent Soul cultivators besieging a mid-stage Demigod cultivator who was in a sorry state, covered in flecks of blood. The Nascent Soul cultivators knew that their individual strength was not enough, and they had to move as a group if they wanted to advance.
The Demigod cultivator was dressed entirely in white robes and had a handsome face with gentle features. His name was Ning Zhou and all those who saw him liked him for his good looks. He ranked around the middle of the Demigod cultivator list, at spot number twenty-eight.
“These two esteemed friends, please lend me a hand, I am willing to hand over half of the competition tokens on my person to you!” Ning Zhou noticed Gu Feng and Su Mujin, and loudly called out to them as though he had seen his saviors.
Gu Feng coldly laughed and said, “Your Excellency is awfully optimistic. Not only half of your tokens, the tokens of everyone here will also belong to us, or we’ll leave without interfering.”
Ning Zhou secretly cursed in his heart, but gritted his teeth and said, “Deal!”
Though the several dozen attackers could handle a single Demigod cultivator, if Gu Feng and Su Mujin were added to the mix, those people would no longer be their opponent. Soon, not a single attacker was left, with those who hadn’t been eliminated from the competition preemptively running away.
“Here!” Ning Zhou decisively threw out half of his tokens and then fled at such a high speed that not even his shadow could be seen.
Gu Feng and Su Mujin were speechless.
“Cough, it’s possible that he’s worried we will make a move on him if he stays here. Didn’t you want competition tokens? Quick, now that there are so many, go pick them up,” Gu Feng said.
“Gege, this is great! There are over one hundred tokens and now we have enough for both of us.” Su Mujin collected the tokens with immense satisfaction and eagerly handed them over to Gu Feng, his expression telegraphing the phrase ‘quickly praise me’.
“Pfft…” Gu Feng couldn’t bear it any longer and laughed until he was out of breath. Su Mujin was really too cute.
Su Mujin was perplexed.
So collecting these competition tokens made Gege feel overjoyed? Su Mujin felt elated as well as overwhelmingly proud of his achievement.
“Alright, now that we have the tokens, let’s find a hideout so we can rest until the competition is over.” Nearly deceased from laughing, Gu Feng finally managed to control himself.
As soon as he spoke, Su Mujin’s ears turned bright red, but he kept his thoughts to himself.
Surrounded by ancient trees and lush forest, they soon found a narrow cave entrance hidden by thick vegetation. Being so well hidden, and it wouldn’t be discovered at all if one wasn’t looking carefully. It was really an excellent place to hide.
“Ah!” Gu Feng was just about to take Su Mujin inside when he heard a vocalization from within the cave sounding like a low groan. The voice also sounded somewhat familiar. Are people fighting within the cave? But who would go and fight inside a cave? Can you even use your abilities to their full potential? Gu Feng silently puzzled.
“That voice sounds like Xiao Chen. Gege, should we go take a look?” Su Mujin also felt the situation was a bit strange.
Gu Feng nodded. “That voice is definitely his. Let’s have a look!” Coming from the same sect, they could be considered to have some friendship. It would be better to help out where he could.
However, when the pair finally were able to observe the situation within the cave, they were stunned.
The cave interior was spacious but rather dim. However, their vision enhanced due to cultivation, they could distinctly observe the overlapping figures of two men squeezed into a corner… Xiao Chen was currently being pressed against the wall by Ling Yunxuan and relentlessly pounded. Both of them wore expressions filled with rapture, and were entirely oblivious to the arrival of others. The two of them panted heavily, their moans mingling together and the sounds they made were enough to make the observers blush with racing hearts.
