My Online Girlfriend Is The Nine Heaven Divine Phoenix

Chapter 349: Mindset Change (2)

These people were more loyal to the sect than those cultivators with good backgrounds.

Therefore, in the canteen of the sect, a guy who had starved to death appeared.

At this moment, Gao Zhen only had food in his eyes. He didn’t care about other people’s gazes and just buried his head in his work on the table.

“Wow, this guy is also from our sect? How did he become like this?”

“Who knows? I’m not sure.”

“Hehe, you guys don’t know, right? His name is Gao Zhen. Previously, when the sect leader’s wife gave out resources, this guy deliberately acted pretentious. Needless to say, he even had the intention of flirting with her. Then, he was directly put in solitary confinement for a year. He should have been released early.”

“Hehe, if that’s the case, then he’s really courting death.”

“He wasn’t. It’s all thanks to the sect leader’s magnanimity.”

Magnanimity?

If Gao Zhen heard this, he would definitely think that this person was telling a joke.

“Look, look, this video is him!”

At this moment, someone even found the live broadcast video from back then.

“F*ck! No way, how did he become like this now? Looks like our sect’s solitary confinement is a little formidable!”

“Hey, if I had to say it, we should let him stay until the day he dies!”

“I’m going to post it on the internet and let people see the oddity of our sect.”

Soon, someone posted the video clip of Gao Zhen eating his meal in a disheveled state in the cafeteria together with the video of him acting cool back then on the internet.

The long period of hunger had already caused Gao Zhen to be somewhat disfigured.

At this moment, when compared to his original appearance, it was simply impossible to imagine that he was the same person.

The moment this video was released, it instantly became popular.

“Aiya, damn it, what did this guy go through?”

“I remember him. At that time, he threw a flirtatious glance at Lu Ping’s wife and was dealt with.”

“He deserved it!”

Didn’t he deserve it?

One had to know that in the sect, respecting the master and the Dao was the most important rule.

Especially when Lu Ping and Huang Xiaoqi were distributing resources to their disciples. In the end, he was so frivolous.

In everyone’s eyes, it was only right to be punished for such a misdemeanor.

It couldn’t be denied that Huang Xiaoqi’s beauty might make many people fantasize about her.

However, one had to know that wanting something and taking it by force were two different things.

On the other side, Gao Zhen’s parents, who were far away in the Qingzhou state sects, also saw this video!

Gao Zhen had been missing for more than half a year, and during this half a year, they had been concerned about him at all times. Although they knew that Gao Zhen was in solitary confinement and that his life wouldn’t be in danger, they still had to worry.

Now that they saw Gao Zhen’s expression, their hearts instantly ached.

“I told you that we shouldn’t have let our son go. You insisted that it was a great opportunity. But now, our son has been pushed to such a state. What should we do?” Gao Zhen’s mother cried.

Gao Zhen’s father said coldly, “I know that your heart aches, and so does mine. But you have to know that although our son’s talent is outstanding, he isn’t considered top-notch. He will follow the steps and be an elder of the Qingzhou state sects for the rest of his life! But now, if he really succeeds, he might become an immortal. He might even become a Seven Phoenixes sect elder. What’s the point of suffering?”

Even though his heart ached, he knew that there was no turning back. Now that Gao Zhen had entered the Seven Phoenixes sect, even if he wanted to come back, he wouldn’t be able to. That would be betraying the sect. Any sect would only have one way to deal with a disciple like that, it was either to cripple his cultivation, or to pursue and kill him.

With Huang Xiaoqi around, even the Qingzhou state sects wouldn’t be able to protect Gao Zhen.

Lu Ping didn’t know this. He was currently with Yun Ying.

Half a month had already passed since he returned to Fengming Planet.

“Official Lu Xing, when are you going to start advertising? We’ve been back for half a month, and there hasn’t been any news at all.”

Yun Ying was a little anxious. However, Lu Ping was not in a hurry. The work of immortals was done in thousands of years.

“How have you been feeling on Fengming Planet recently?” Lu Ping gave her a sum of money.

It was convenient for her to experience life.

Yun Ying was very satisfied with this and said, “It’s good, but we have to do something at least.”

“Don’t we have to plan it out slowly? We’re the pilot and we have to set an example for all immortals. If we don’t do well, what will other people think?” Lu Ping smiled and lied.

In fact, Lu Ping’s current attitude toward this matter was a little ambiguous.

Before returning to Fengming Planet, Lu Ping had wanted to work hard and come up with a quick and effective way for the immortals to learn.

But now, Lu Ping didn’t think so.

Because he could see the deep meaning in the Jade Emperor’s order.

The power struggle within was not discussed for the time being, but this matter itself was actually a method to strengthen the Heavenly Court’s management of the universe.

If one said that the original planets and cultivators in the universe were all free-range.

Now, the Heavenly Court wanted to reclaim them. The second step visible to the naked eye was to set rules.

Lu Ping actually did not dislike this because he knew that as long as a person was alive, there were all kinds of rules.

Even the Heavenly Dao was actually the embodiment of a rule.

Even a saint had to live in this mode.

This wasn’t a bad thing.

However, a problem appeared.

Huang Beisi and the Phoenix clan.

In the end, this was Huang Xiaoqi’s mother clan.

If he compared it to the Heavenly Court, Lu Ping would definitely stand on the Phoenix clan’s side.

If it was done quickly and well, Lu Ping could indeed obtain a large amount of merit, and he could also sell himself well in front of Yun Xiao.

But in reality, he was accelerating the Heavenly Court’s speed of controlling the universe.

If there really was a day when the Phoenix clan could not escape and was reintegrated into the Heavenly Court, would he be able to watch Huang Beisi die in battle? Would he be able to watch that clan’s fate be controlled by someone again?

Therefore, Lu Ping’s enthusiasm for this matter plummeted!

However, he knew very well that he had to obtain the position of Fengming Planet official. The reason was very simple. With this position, he would be able to protect Huang Xiaoqi.

To put it bluntly, as a middleman, he had to first have this position and authority.

Therefore, regardless of whether it was publicity or experimentation, he had to do what he had to do, and he had to do it well.

However, this method had to change from one that everyone could learn to one that no one could imitate.

First of all, if Lu Ping did well, it meant that there was no problem with the method. If the process was obstructed, it might cause the formal management of the entire southeast star domain to last for hundreds of thousands of years.

Time was what Lu Ping needed the most. He knew very well that as long as he could become a saint, he could protect the Phoenix clan!

If a saint was not enough, then he would become an existence comparable to the Heavenly Dao.

To be honest, if he had not watched Pangu create Heaven and Earth, Lu Ping would have been in awe of the Heavenly Dao.

However, after that day, Lu Ping’s mentality changed.

In that person’s hands, Heaven and Earth were like playthings.

Many people in the later generations raised the Heavenly Dao infinitely, believing that the creation of Heaven and Earth was destined by the Heavenly Dao.

However, when Lu Ping entered Pangu’s body, he could clearly sense what he was thinking.

Everything was just what he wanted to do.

Even if in the end, he turned into all things and opened a new chapter for the primeval era, it was just what he wanted to do.

No one controlled him.

In the end, it was just another way to survive.

When one transcended everyone, life and death was not something difficult to choose.

Therefore, Lu Ping did not have much respect for the Heavenly Dao.

In his eyes, whether the Heavenly Dao was destined or not, it could not affect a person’s thoughts.

Lu Ping did not resist the Heavenly Dao, but he did not care about the Heavenly Dao. What he cared about was the people around him and his thoughts.

In his opinion, if Hong Jun transcended all living beings and relied on the Heavenly Dao, then the Heavenly Dao was just a kind of power.

As long as he had the power to stand shoulder to shoulder with him, he would have more and more authority.

Therefore, the current Lu Ping was actually thinking of stalling for time in order to strengthen himself.
