Gu Zhiqi gave a respectful bow to the two of them, “Thank you both for your assistance today.

I owe each of you a favor, which you can come to collect at any time.”

Upon hearing this, Lv Yao hurriedly waved his hands, “Master, you’re too polite.

You saved my life before, and today my senior sister and I merely did you a small favor, there’s no need for such formalities.”

As Lv Yao spoke, Jin Cenglv, who had been slightly hesitant, also moved and walked up to Gu Zhiqi, “You… Master, may I ask you a few questions?”

Jin Cenglv wore a mask, muffling her voice.

Coupled with her naturally soft and slow tone, one had to listen carefully to catch her words.

Fortunately, Gu Zhiqi’s hearing ability was quite good, and he heard her clearly, “Ask away.”

With his words, Jin Cenglv thought for a moment and then reached up to remove her mask.

Once the mask was removed, Jin Cenglv’s entire face was revealed, showcasing a very delicate visage, looking to be only about twenty years old but with a few traces of maturity and composure that seemed beyond her years.

After taking off the mask, Jin Cenglv gave Gu Zhiqi a bow and then began to ask, “Just now, I felt a lot of destiny on her that didn’t belong to her, aside from your second brother’s destiny.

Did she seize a lot of other people’s destiny as well?”

Even as Jin Cenglv asked this, in her heart, she was already certain.

She had some knowledge about the matters of destiny.

When the formation was activated a moment ago, she clearly felt that countless destinies not belonging to that woman were being extracted from her.

She also vividly sensed those destinies seeking their true owners and, by now, they should have already returned to their rightful proprietors.

She posed this question merely as a prelude to her next inquiry.

Under Jin Cenglv’s inquiring gaze, Gu Zhiqi nodded.

“If it was only to extract your brother’s destiny, there would be no need for such a Great Array, right?”

Gu Zhiqi raised his eyebrows but didn’t speak, only gazing at Jin Cenglv in a way that seemed to be an acknowledgment.

Seeing this as a confirmation, Jin Cenglv continued, “Master, you could have extracted your brother’s destiny by yourself, yet you didn’t mind owing a favor to me and my junior brother and went to the extent of setting up the Great Array to return those destinies to their rightful places.

May I know why you chose to do this?”

Jin Cenglv didn’t like talking with strangers, and even with her familiar junior brother, she rarely spoke.

Most of the time, she preferred to communicate through typing.

Today, she had spoken more than she had in the entire year, driven by a desperate need for an answer.

An answer she had long been seeking, and she intuitively felt that the person before her might provide the elusive response she had been unable to find.

Hearing Jin Cenglv’s question, Gu Zhiqi gently arched his brows, a seriousness filtering through his relaxed expression, and replied to Jin Cenglv,”Because of the philosophical tenets of the Master’s Sect.”

“What are those tenets?” Jin Cenglv’s eyes showed a fervent yet puzzled look.

Gu Zhiqi knew she was encountering barriers in her cultivation, facing one of the most challenging rifts to cross in the path of cultivation.

Looking at Jin Cenglv, Gu Zhiqi spoke earnestly, “The path of immortality cherishes life, boundlessly aiding others.”

“The path of immortality cherishes life, boundlessly aiding others.” Jin Cenglv lowered her eyes and softly repeated Gu Zhiqi’s words, the perplexity in her gaze seeming to diminish yet not entirely gone.

“The path of immortality cherishes life, boundlessly aiding others…” Jin Cenglv stood in place, murmuring the phrase over and over again.

Watching the changes in the aura around her, Gu Zhiqi clicked his tongue lightly.

“Is she about to Advance?” Chubby Chiu’s voice emerged in Gu Zhiqi’s mind.

“She has quite a high aptitude,” Gu Zhiqi casually responded.
