Quick Wear: After Saving the Cannon Fodder, I Became a God

Chapter 145 The poor little talent who fell in the world of cultivation 39

After Gu Qian received the Zhuyan Grass, the first place prize in the alchemy competition, he walked off the stage amid cheers.

As soon as she stepped off the stage, many people surrounded her, congratulating her and wanting to make themselves known to her.

"Junior Sister Gu, you are so amazing!"

"Senior Sister Gu, I am Chen Peng from the Wuji Sect. Congratulations on winning the competition."

"Friend Gu, do you want to sell the pills you made today?"

……

Gu Qian looked at the monks surrounding him and felt a little at a loss for a moment.

Although she had seen the scene after her senior brother won the championship yesterday and had already imagined the scene after her own victory, she still felt uncomfortable when the moment came.

The eldest brother is worthy of being the eldest brother. Although he usually appears to be taciturn, calm and self-controlled, he can still handle it when the critical moment comes.

Unlike her, she was so blocked that she couldn't speak.

"Um..." Gu Qian tried to answer, but was quickly drowned out by the sound of other people talking.

Seeing that Gu Qian was unable to cope with it, the Sixth Elder hurried out to help her out.

"Fellow Taoists, please be quiet for a moment."

She looked around and said with a smile, "Thank you all for your kindness to my Qingyun Sect disciples. However, Gu Qian has just finished the competition and must be tired. Please come visit me another day."

After hearing Fairy Qingyun's words, everyone realized that their behavior was inappropriate and expressed their apologies.

Gu Qian also took the opportunity to thank everyone, then followed Fairy Qingyun and returned to her residence.

After seeing Gu Qian leave, someone in the crowd said, "Qingyun Sect really came to the fore this time. They won two of the three competitions. They are so lucky!"

After Gu Qian returned, she sat on the bed and meditated to rest.

After a while, there was a knock on the door.

Gu Qian got up and opened the door, only to see Jiang Qingyan standing at the door.

"Junior Sister Gu, can you come out with me for a moment?"

"Okay!" Gu Qian said hello to Shangguan Ya and walked out.

The two walked and talked, and Gu Qian said with a smile: "Brother, are you here to congratulate me?"

"Yes, congratulations, Junior Sister Gu. Your performance today was truly brilliant." Jiang Qingyan said with a smile.

"Thank you, Senior Brother." Gu Qian smiled a little embarrassedly, "Senior Brother is also very good!"

"Oh, stop teasing me, brother."

Jiang Qingyan smiled and said hesitantly: "However, the reason I came here this time, besides congratulating you, is that I have a question that I have been holding back for a long time. If you are not comfortable with it, just pretend that I didn't ask."

"Brother, if you have anything to ask, just tell me."

"I thought I could compete with you in the final match, but I never thought..."

Jiang Qingyan asked in confusion: "Why is this happening, Junior Sister?"

Gu Qian never expected Jiang Qingyan to ask her this question. Did he know something?

No matter what, she could only fool him now, "What else can I do? I'm not as skilled as him."

Seeing that the two had walked to a deserted place, Jiang Qingyan shook his head and said directly: "Junior sister, you can fool others but not me. You lost on purpose, right?"

"Why do you say that, Senior Brother?" Gu Qian didn't understand. She had no previous contact with Jiang Qingyan, so how could he have guessed it?

Was it just because she changed her cultivation level in front of him? But was it too hasty for him to conclude that she lost on purpose based on this?

"You have an artifact that can conceal your cultivation level. If your actual cultivation level is only one or two levels higher than the one that is concealed, there is no need to use this artifact to conceal your cultivation level."

Jiang Qingyan said affirmatively: "At your current age, cultivating to the early stage of Nascent Soul is already a genius level. It is only possible that your actual cultivation level is much higher than the normal level of your age that you need it."

Seeing Gu Qian frowning in thought, Jiang Qingyan raised his lips and smiled.

"Junior sister, I have no ill intention in telling you this. These thoughts have been weighing on my mind for more than ten years, and I have never spoken to anyone."

"It's just that I thought you would shine in this battle, and I would have the opportunity to compete with you, but I didn't expect..."

Gu Qian looked at Jiang Qingyan and smiled.

"Brother, you are really smart and wise! But since you and I know some things, there is no need to explain them in detail. If you want to compete, Gu Qian is willing to accompany you at any time."

A hint of joy flashed across Jiang Qingyan's eyes; this was exactly what he was waiting for.

"That's great. I'll wait for news from my junior sister."

He turned and left, leaving Gu Qian standing there, deep in thought.

Gu Qian returned to the room, secretly admiring Jiang Qingyan's insight.

However, even if she was discovered and exposed, she wouldn't particularly care.

With her current strength, she is already among the top masters in Kuitian Continent. With Yuanyuan by her side, she is able to fight anyone she meets.

"Qianqian, what does Senior Brother want you to go out for?" Shangguan Ya felt a little strange.

Why is it that every time my junior sister is called out to talk, she always looks absent-minded when she comes back?

"Big Brother just congratulated me on winning the alchemy competition, and then asked me some questions about alchemy."

Shangguan Ya nodded in understanding. No wonder he asked Qianqian to go out. As the eldest senior brother, he would not be embarrassed to ask with him around.

"Qianqian, we're all going back in a few days, why hasn't the master come yet?"

"Yeah, it should be today, right? I won first place today, but Master didn't see it."

"That's right. If Master were here and saw you win, he would be so proud that he would go crazy. Haha!" Shangguan Ya found it funny when she thought of that scene.

"Hahaha, yes! It's a pity that Master didn't see it."

"I finally got here after rushing so hard. I wanted to come and see my two favorite disciples first, but I didn't expect you to be talking bad about me here?"

Gu Qian and Shangguan Ya were startled and immediately opened the door and walked outside.

"Master!" the two shouted in unison.

Gu Qian thought: This guy really can't stand being nagged, and he was caught red-handed when he was nagged.

Master Xuanxu looked at the embarrassed expressions of his two disciples and smiled with satisfaction.

"Oh, what a big loss. I was just a little bit slow, otherwise, I would have caught up." It was such a pity that I couldn't show off in front of those old guys.

"Master, the Sixth Elder informed the headmaster five days ago. Shouldn't he have arrived yesterday? If he had arrived yesterday, he might have seen the eldest brother win first place in the battle!"

After hearing Gu Qian's previous question, Master Xuanxu felt a little guilty.

He was a little slow, and only set off after being urged many times by the head of the sect, but he also tried his best, otherwise how could he have arrived in three days?

However, when he heard the complete sentence that Gu Qian said later, he realized that he was the real winner of this sect exchange conference.
