Qingzong.

Main Hall

Jiang Mo has come back to report.

"Master, the chaos in Qingcheng has been quelled, but there is one matter that I still need to report to you."

Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“Speak.”

Shen Changqing's expression remained unchanged.

Jiang Mo said: "The upheaval in Qingcheng, my subordinates once saw a celestial master of the ninth level of cultivation fall into darkness and become a puppet. This is not a simple matter, so my subordinates came to report!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"The Divine Lord's ninefold cultivators fell into darkness and became puppets!"

Shen Changqing remained silent. The elders of the sect, waiting for a response, all changed color.

They were very clear about what this change meant.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing's expression remained calm: "The surge of dark power, the fall of the Nine Heavens Divine Lord into a puppet is also normal. If the situation continues to deteriorate, even the Divine Monarch will not be spared!"

The surge of dark power is destined to greatly increase the strength of the Dark camp.

This matter.

No one can change it.

The reason is very simple.

This is the translated text:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

As the dark power surges, more and more cultivators will fall into darkness. If one's cultivation is insufficient or their mind is not firm, they will collapse mentally and become puppets who only know how to kill.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

On the contrary.

If you had long since accepted the power of darkness and become a follower of the Dark Lord, there would be no such problems to trouble you.

Please note that I can only translate the text content within the > markers. HTML tags are not translated.

So.

Before the Ghost Cultivator, there were only two paths.

Either pledge allegiance to the Dark Overlord first, escaping the fate of becoming a puppet later, or continue resisting until one day you can resist no more, becoming a puppet of slaughter or a dark believer.

All in all.

The longer the delay, the more detrimental it is.

After all, no one can guarantee when the next surge of dark power will occur.

Therefore.

This time, the change in dark power is destined to greatly increase the strength of the dark camp.

On the side of the Nether Camp, in Shen Changqing's view, there probably wouldn't be many ways to cope.

Although the situation is chaotic, it's not necessarily a bad thing for us. But if the Underworld camp collapses too quickly, it's definitely not good news.

> It's just that things have come to this, and it's not something Shen Changqing can intervene in.

The time that follows.

Shen Changqing was in seclusion within the sect, wholeheartedly comprehending the rules of the great Dao, hoping to break through to the third level of a powerful being as soon as possible.

Additionally.

The powerful figures of the Qingzong, led by Duan Jing, directly led their disciples to various locations, assisting the subordinate forces under their jurisdiction in suppressing the dark chaos.

Of course.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Suppressing darkness and chaos is not without cost.

After all, while the Azure Sect protects these forces, it does not mean they provide free assistance in suppressing darkness and chaos. Each force must pay a certain price for this.

However, compared to being able to suppress darkness and chaos, stabilizing the situation, the price paid is completely worthwhile for these forces.

But even though Qingzong acted quickly, many forces were destroyed in the darkness and chaos. The ancient barren land's peace had been completely shattered.

Take care of your family.

Now, everything is in disarray.

>

The surge of dark power caused considerable turmoil within the Gu family. Almost half of the clan members were corrupted by the darkness, becoming puppets driven only by the urge to kill.

To suppress these dark puppets and the dark believers hiding in the shadows, the Gu family paid a heavy price. Many strong individuals perished, and even the head of the Gu family, Gu He, was gravely injured as a result and died shortly after.

Just before Gu He perished, Gu Qingyang happened to return to the Gu family and assisted the family in suppressing the darkness upheaval. Therefore, he was entrusted by Gu He on his deathbed to become the next head of the Gu family.

That is correct.

No one in the family had any objections.

After all, let alone the fact that Gu Qingyang is the young master of the Gu family and has the qualifications to become the next head of the Gu family, just saying that he entered the third level of the Divine Master at a young age, his talent is unparalleled in the contemporary era.

Under the dual superposition of identity and ability, Gu Qingyang becoming the head of the Gu family was only natural.

This is the moment.

In the grand hall of a well-kept home.

Gu Qingyang was seated at the head of the table, with a group of high-ranking members of the Gu family below.

“Qingyang is new to his position and taking on such a heavy responsibility for the first time. He still needs the help of all the elders!”

"My master is too kind!"

"To serve the family is our duty—"

All the conscientious and dutiful high-level officials hastily replied.

Although they were much older than Gu Qingyang, their cultivation level was not necessarily stronger than his, so they naturally wouldn't do anything to take advantage of their age.

Besides,

Please provide me with the content you would like to translate. I'm ready when you are!

Gu Qingyang, at such a young age, is already at the third level of the Divine Master. It's almost certain that he will become a Divine Sovereign in the future.

>

There is someone here.

My family has the hope of becoming an ancient and honorable clan.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Now that Gu Qingyang has taken over as the head of the family, he has greatly boosted the morale of the clan. Otherwise, the aftereffects of this recent darkness turmoil alone could have led the Gu family to ruin.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Looking at the awed expressions of the crowd, Gu Qingyang did not continue with any more polite pleasantries. "The Gu family is in dire straits, with many high-ranking members falling, leaving the internal structure depleted. Therefore, I ask everyone to hand over a list of all vacant positions and candidate nominations to me. Then, I will make a concrete decision. Also, although the darkness and chaos have subsided, there's no guarantee that dark believers haven't infiltrated within our family. Therefore, we need to intensify internal checks."

"Whoever is found to be a follower of the darkness, shall be killed on the spot. There shall be no mercy!"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated! I can handle a variety of languages.

The moment these words were spoken.

Here is the translation of your text:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

A murderous intent flashed in Gu Qingyang's eyes.

Though Gu He's death saddened him, he kept his emotions in check and didn't show them outwardly.

Even if those dark followers were once close friends and family, once they pledge allegiance to the Dark Lord, they are no longer who they once were.

Therefore.

Facing these dark believers, Gu Qingyang would not be merciful.

Many stay-at-home executives also readily obeyed the order.

"We shall obey the master's orders!"

“Nowadays, the darkness and chaos plaguing our home is just a glimpse of what awaits us outside. The ancient wasteland and beyond will be even more perilous. If Gujia wishes to survive this turmoil, it must do everything in its power to increase its strength.”

As for the family's assets, many unnecessary industries could be sold off entirely, and anything related to cultivation that was no longer needed should be exchanged for cultivation resources or Netherworld Spirit Stones.

Gu Qingyang's words caused the expressions of many Gu family cultivators to change.

An elder of the family hesitated and said, "Family business is not easy to manage. If we sell everything off, it will not be beneficial for the long-term development of the family in the future."

Upon hearing this, many senior executives of Gujia nodded in agreement.

In their eyes, giving up the family business was like killing the golden goose.

That is because Gu Qingyang's current status is extraordinary, that's why they are so polite. If someone else proposed this, they would have been torn to shreds.

>

Gu Qingyang said: "The situation is different now. The Gu family's industries are too dispersed. If it were in the past stable situation, having many industries would naturally be an advantage."

But now, with so many industries, it's not a good thing, especially since the family has just gone through a dark and turbulent period. With heavy losses among the strong, further dispersing strength to manage these industries would only result in being unable to manage both ends well.

Furthermore, with the current unstable situation in the ancient wasteland, even if the Gu family relied on the Qingzong, it might not be truly safe.

Therefore, it is better to sell everything rather than have most industries remain in our hands and be ineffective. This would allow us to shrink the family's power and ensure the family's development.

In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures are needed! Using the methods of peacetime to deal with such a major crisis is always flawed!

>

Gu Qingyang's words made all the high-level members of the Gu family who had previously opposed him stunned, and then they willingly submitted.

“The head of the family is far-sighted, we admire him!”

They originally thought Gu Qingyang, being young, would lack experience in handling family affairs. However, it seems their worries were completely unfounded.

Gu Qingyang's handling of these matters was quite unique, with a keen eye that could instantly discern the problems facing the Gu family.

Most senior executives aren't fools.

Since Gu Qingyang had explained things so clearly, they naturally understood the ins and outs of it.

Indeed.

The biggest problem with the Gu family is that their industries are too dispersed.

This issue isn't usually a big deal, but given the current circumstances, it becomes infinitely more serious.

Abandon industry.

It's akin to a hero cutting off his arm.

For the Gu family right now, this is the best course of action.

With Gu Qingyang's command passed down, the actions taken by the Gu family were also very swift.

As Gu Qingyang said, the entire ancient wasteland is currently in chaos. Many forces have realized this and are scrambling to abandon many industries just to obtain truly valuable resources.

It's a pity.

When the force selling an industry grows, market prices keep dropping until they reach only about half of their usual value.

While the Gu family was the first to sell their assets, so they were not much affected.

After seeing the situation of Gu Huang, the Gu family members admired Gu Qingyang even more.

Here is your translated text:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Had this person not been so resolute, pushing back against all opinions and selling off many family businesses, now the Gu family would find it much harder to sell anything.

However.

The Gu family was filled with joy, but Gu Qingyang wasn't as relaxed as the others.

As a disciple of the Qingzong inner sect, Gu Qingyang increasingly understood how dire the current situation was. The Gu family was after all just a small clan, and whether it could survive the calamity and continue its lineage was always a question.

“It’s a pity that my current strength is still too weak to change much. I can only take things one step at a time!”

Gu Qingyang sighed inwardly and stopped thinking about these things.

Next.

Gu Qingyang once again handled Gu family affairs, then asked the high-ranking clan elders to help with the family business. As for himself, he returned to Qizong to report.

After all, although Gu Qingyang is the head of the Gu family, he has always had another identity.

This identity.

He was a disciple of the Qingzong.

Back to Qingzong.

Gu Qingyang went to see Shen Changqing first and told him everything that had happened to the Gu family during this time, as well as his own decisions.

Upon hearing Gu Qingyang's words, Shen Changqing also seemed to get a fresh perspective on the disciple before him, his eyes filled with some approval. "This old man underestimated you a bit. I didn't expect you to handle these matters so well."m.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!After all, the Twelve-Rank Dao Soldiers are already standing at the pinnacle of today's heavens.The Elder Wan sighed deeply and nodd...
