Reboot: Immortality Cultivation Era - Chapter 878
Chapter 878 Gao Ge’s Composure
The Star Sect’s opening ceremony is held on time. Master Guanshan attaches a lot of importance to this matter. He has started preparing for this almost one month ahead.
They are not sure about how many people can come to attend the ceremony. After all, Gao Ge, the sovereign of the Star Sect is not good-reputed in the field of immortal cultivation or the blessed spots.
Maybe Xia Shengtang is right. Every cultivator has to take others as the stepping stones if he wants to grow strong. Hence, although Gao Ge has offended many people, he is of great significance in the field of immortal cultivation. After all, one cannot make an omelet without breaking eggs.
If Gao Ge is always a man of mediocrity, he can barely offend so many people even if he wants to. Maybe he will be directly slapped to death when he offends the first person.
In the early morning.
Gao Ge walks out of the room. Feeling the warm sunshine, he stretches himself and operates his power of stars for a cosmic orbit. Then, with a sigh, he adjusts his condition with the aura and tries his best to keep himself in his prime.
Just as Xia Shengtang said, today is the opening ceremony of the Star Sect and no one knows what will happen.
After all, Gao Ge has offended too many people. Indeed, some people come here to offer congratulations. However, quite some people also want to take the opportunity to embarrass the Star Sect.
At the opening ceremony, if anything wrong happens or they are insulted by the enemies, the Star Sect may become the laughing stock of all the cultivators’ sects, families and those blessed spots before long.
As the sovereign of the Star Sect, Gao Ge doesn’t allow such a thing to happen though the sect is at the initial stage.
Actually, on second thought, given Gao Ge’s character, he doesn’t need to care about this at all. When does he start to care about others’ views on him and his sect? It’s just that since he has established the Star Sect, it is inevitable to mingle with the field of immortal cultivation and the blessed spots. If he is alone, he doesn’t have to care about that at all. However, now that he represents the Star Sect, he has to consider this.
“Hopefully, nothing wrong will happen today,” Gao Ge heaves a sigh and says.
“Rest assured. With you and my brother here, there will be nothing wrong.” Xia Lu puts a bowl of porridge on the stone table outside together with a dish of pickled vegetables, “Have something first. There’ll be deep-fried dough sticks and steamed stuffed buns later.”
“Okay.” Gao Ge sits down and asks, “Have you eaten yet?”
“Not yet. When you finish eating, I’ll eat then.”
Gao Ge has mixed feelings all of a sudden.
Since he and Xia Lu have confessed their feelings to each other, Xia Lu’s character seems to change a lot. She has never been so gentle before.
“Xia Lu, you don’t have to do this,” Gao Ge grabs Xia Lu’s wrist and says tenderly, “I think you were great too.”
“I was great?” Xia Lu tilts her head and looks at him, “What was I like before?”
“Well…” Gao Ge seemingly has no idea how to answer the question.
“Did you always think I was fierce before?” Xia Lu rolls her eyes at him, “Actually, I don’t think anything is bad with me now. Do you think I really like the old me? How can any girl want to look cold and fierce all the time? But if I didn’t, who would protect me?”
Gao Ge’s eyes slightly flicker.
He gives a smile and makes Xia Lu sit down.
“It’s okay. I’ll protect you in the future.”
“OK!”
Gao Ge suddenly feels a headache.
In his last life, Xia Lu was like a female warrior of Huaxia.
She was almost known to all in the whole Huaxia.
That was because Xia Lu was always independent and could only keep becoming stronger.
However, now, she is with Gao Ge.
Can she still go that far?
Thinking of this, he pats his head and feels that he is being a bit stupid. He doesn’t have to consider these issues for now. After all, since he is with Xia Lu, he won’t let her encounter danger.
Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether Xia Lu is an ordinary girl or a female warrior of Huaxia.
“Hey! There is porridge for breakfast! Lu, go and fetch a bowl of porridge for me,” says Xia Shengtang.
“You go and fetch it on your own. It’s in the kitchen,” Xia Lu says.
Xia Shengtang snorts and slumps in front of Gao Ge, saying, “Fortunately, I’ve eaten before coming here. Otherwise, I would be full due to anger.”
Gao Ge laughs, “You came here so early. Any good news to share with me?”
“No good news. I’m afraid that you can’t get through today.” Xia Shengtang looks at Gao Ge’s porridge.
Gao Ge takes a glance at Xia Lu and she also can’t help laughing.
“Okay. Okay. I’ll fetch a bowl of porridge for you. There is plenty of it.”
Xia Shengtang finally gives a childish smile.
It’s hard to imagine Xia Shengtang’s eyes can be so clear. Probably, his eyes can look like this only when he faces Xia Lu.
After Xia Lu leaves, Xia Shengtang suddenly pulls a long face.
As it appears now, he drags his feet for a while only to send Xia Lu away with an excuse.
“I’ve got a piece of good news and a piece of bad news. Which one do you want to hear?”
“Well… Shouldn’t you ask me which one I want to hear first?”
“No, I intend to tell you only one,” Xia Shengtang says.
Gao Ge is speechless.
What’s his problem?
“Bad news then,” Gao Ge says with a sigh.
When he knows the bad news, he can take precautions as soon as possible.
As to the good news…
After all, it is good news. There is nothing to take precautions against.
“The bad news is that the sovereign of the Joyoung Sect has finished his closed-door training,” Xia Shengtang says, “I suspect that he has sensed Jin Yun’s death so he got out of the training in advance. His capability is hard to imagine. I’m afraid that we two may not be able to defeat him. If the Joyoung Sect has only two cultivators at the realm of Grand Master, the sect can’t be in the upper class of the blessed spots sheerly in light of its capability.”
Gao Ge immediately frowns.
The sovereign of the Joyoung Sect is terrifyingly strong. He has known about this before.
However, the sovereign of the Joyoung Sect has been in the closed-door training for more than ten years. That was why he felt there was nothing to worry about back then.
After all, given Gao Ge’s and Xia Shengtang’s growth speed, maybe they could be strong enough to defeat the sovereign of the Joyoung Sect after the latter got out of the training.
However, the sovereign suddenly has got out of the training, which flusters Gao Ge a bit.
“What about the good news?” Gao Ge asks.
“I told you that I would only tell you one,” Xia Shengtang says casually.
Gao Ge gives a bitter smile.
Nevertheless, very quickly, he is no longer worried.
“It seems that I don’t need to worry about the sovereign of the Joyoung Sect,” Gao Ge says.
“Umm?” Xia Shengtang is dazed.
Gao Ge’s composure makes him somewhat confused.
