Cultivation: The Heaven's Fated Useless Genius-Chapter 61 – Miss Jiang, you should just accept this good man!
Early morning.
The caravan began packing up their supplies, preparing to head to the villages and towns near Little Mirror Lake to trade Gu sources for profit.
Bai Jugu divided the team into three groups: one headed upstream, another downstream, while he personally led a team to the green bamboo forest by Little Mirror Lake.
Everyone started preparing, and the camp was bustling with activity.
Gu Feng, along with Fang Feixue and Jiang Chuyao, naturally joined Bai Jugu's team.
Wherever Jiang Chuyao was, Yan Wushuang would surely follow closely. Gu Feng didn't mind and continued to openly flirt with Fang Feixue.
This made Yan Wushuang feel quite uncomfortable.
The scenery along the way was beautiful.
Gu Feng deliberately released the Purple Gold Star-eyed Beast, took Fang Feixue's hand, and climbed onto it.
The Purple Gold Star-eyed Beast, being a rare creature of the Elemental Infant Realm, immediately caused fear among the many pack beasts in the caravan, making them restless and causing a small commotion.
With a mischievous smile, Gu Feng lightly patted the back of the Purple Gold Star-eyed Beast. The creature, well-versed in Gu Feng's commands, immediately accelerated, leaving the caravan far behind.
"What are you doing?" Fang Feixue asked with a hint of reproach.
At this moment, she was nestled in Gu Feng's arms, the two of them sitting in an intimate position on the back of the Purple Gold Star-eyed Beast. She didn't find it inappropriate, just wondered why Gu Feng suddenly left the group.
Gu Feng smiled and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, I have my reasons."
Earlier that morning, Gu Feng received a reply from Murong Ze, stating that they had arrived in the Little Mirror Lake area and provided coordinates of their current location, which was not far ahead.
He left the group to meet them.
The two of them, along with the beast, flew swiftly and soon arrived at a low-lying flower field. Gu Feng guided the Purple Gold Star-eyed Beast to land.
As soon as they dismounted, a group of cultivators dressed in black with masks emerged from all directions.
"Who are you?!" Fang Feixue exclaimed in shock, quickly summoning her five-ringed flying blade.
Gu Feng chuckled, patted her shoulder, and said, "Relax, they're on our side."
Murong Ze, dressed in a tight-fitting outfit, slowly stepped out from the crowd, cupping his hands in greeting, "Brother Gu, upon receiving your flying kite, I rushed over without delay."
Glancing at Fang Feixue, Murong Ze quickly added, "This must be Miss Fang. I am Murong Ze."
Fang Feixue asked suspiciously, "Murong Ze? From the Murong Family of Fire Phoenix City?"
"Indeed, that's me."
Looking at Gu Feng with doubt, Fang Feixue asked, "What's going on here?"
Gu Feng whispered a few words in her ear, and upon hearing them, Fang Feixue's expression changed repeatedly before she finally exclaimed with a mix of amusement and exasperation, "You guys are too wicked!"
After calming Fang Feixue, Gu Feng turned to Murong Ze and asked, "Is everything ready?"
Murong Ze nodded and replied, "Everything is in place. I've brought seven people, all with cultivation around the fifth stage of the Elemental Infant Realm. Except for myself, they are all dressed in night attire to conceal their identities."
"Good, very good."
Gu Feng was quite satisfied, patting Murong Ze's shoulder, "In a moment, I'll return to the caravan first. You follow behind, stay hidden, and use my folding fan as a signal. When I open the fan, that's when you charge out."
After a pause, Gu Feng added a special reminder, "Make sure your actions are convincing. Don't mess it up!"
"Rest assured, we've rehearsed many times, there won't be any issues!" Murong Ze replied confidently.
"That's good!"
Thinking for a moment, Gu Feng added, "There's someone in the group I really dislike. If he tries to interfere, feel free to teach him a lesson for me!"
Murong Ze chuckled and asked, "How will we recognize him?"
"He's tall, a bit handsome, easy to spot!" Gu Feng said with a wicked grin.
Fang Feixue hesitated to speak; she knew Gu Feng was referring to Yan Wushuang. She wanted to intervene but thought better of it, deciding to let them handle it.
Murong Ze nodded, turned to the seven black-clothed men behind him, and asked, "Did you hear what Young Master Gu instructed?"
"We understand!" The seven black-clothed men responded in unison.
Looking at these seven men, Gu Feng felt great satisfaction.
He had long wanted to teach that bastard Yan Wushuang a lesson, but due to his status, he couldn't do it himself. The main issue was that with his fifth-stage Golden Core cultivation, he couldn't win!
These seven cultivators, all at the fifth stage of the Elemental Infant Realm, were top experts from the Murong Family!
Ganging up on a peak Elemental Infant Yan Wushuang shouldn't be difficult!
With this thought, Gu Feng didn't hesitate any longer. He took Fang Feixue's hand, mounted the beast, and with a swift pat on the Purple Gold Star-eyed Beast's rear, they rode the wind back.

The two of them rode the celestial beast back along the same path, and soon they saw the caravan.
As soon as Gu Feng and Fang Feixue returned to the caravan, Jiang Chuyao flew over, repeatedly scolding Fang Feixue for leaving her behind to play around, insisting on riding the Purple Gold Star-eyed Beast herself.
The Purple Gold Star-eyed Beast, having long gained intelligence, was visibly displeased by this crazy girl's words.
In its heart, only Gu Feng was its master.
As for Fang Feixue, she was clearly the master's Daoist partner, so it tolerated her. But this little girl? Just a Qi Refining Realm cultivator, and she dared to think she could ride on the back of this beast?
It let out a low growl, and the antlers on its head faintly emitted traces of lightning.
Seeing the Purple Gold Star-eyed Beast's reaction, Jiang Chuyao was a bit frightened and quickly hid behind Fang Feixue.
The caravan members saw this and burst into laughter.
Gu Feng focused his gaze inward, calmly taking out a folding fan from his robe. With a natural flick, the fan snapped open, and he gently waved it twice.
The seven black-clothed cultivators, who had been lying in ambush, saw this signal and rushed out with a swish!
In broad daylight, all seven wore night suits, revealing only their eyes, and the aura of their Elemental Infant Realm cultivation burst forth simultaneously.
The leader of the black-clothed group raised an eyebrow and shouted at the caravan, "Robbery! Men to the left, women to the right, put all treasures and spirit stones in the middle! Everyone, behave!"
The Jiang family caravan was thrown into chaos, utterly shocked. They had been trading between two regions for years and had never encountered such blatant highway robbery.
Though the Northern Wilderness was chaotic, it had its own set of rules. The Jiang family had greased the palms of various factions, and as long as they traveled under the Jiang family name, they were usually given some respect.
Even if someone wanted to take advantage on a whim, they would send a representative to negotiate with the caravan, never resorting to such brazen acts!
However, these black-clothed individuals were highly skilled, with profound true core energy, while the caravan's guards were merely Golden Elixir Realm cultivators, unlikely to win in a fight, which made the situation quite awkward.
After calming the caravan members, Bai Jugu quickly stepped forward and said, "Gentlemen, we are the Jiang family caravan. Here are a hundred superior grade spirit stones, a gift for you to enjoy some wine. Could you grant us some leniency?"
Bai Jugu had been mingling in the caravan for years, with extensive experience in the martial world.
He guessed these seven were new to the area and unaware of the rules. A hundred superior grade spirit stones were already a significant value, and as the saying goes, spending money to avoid disaster, he hoped to send them away to prevent further trouble.
Gu Feng glanced appreciatively at Bai Jugu. Though his cultivation was not high, his understanding of human nature was spot on. Under normal circumstances, he might have resolved the issue.
"A hundred spirit stones to dismiss us!?"
The leader of the black-clothed group angrily shouted, "Do you take us for beggars?!"
Bai Jugu felt he had hit a wall and immediately changed his strategy, asking, "Are you sure you want to offend the Jiang family of Yong'an City?"
The Jiang family of Yong'an City had a formidable reputation in the Northern Wilderness border area, and cultivators generally avoided offending them. Bai Jugu's reminder was intended to make them reconsider.
"So what if it's the Jiang family? We'll rob them just the same!"
Another black-clothed cultivator stepped forward, laughing lewdly, "I heard the daughter of the Jiang family head in Yong'an City is a rare beauty. Could it be this young lady?"
As he spoke, he pointed at Jiang Chuyao, who was hiding behind Fang Feixue, his eyes full of desire.
Jiang Chuyao was terrified by his words. She had never encountered such a situation and screamed in panic.
Squinting his eyes, Yan Wushuang was about to make a move when someone silently pressed down on his shoulder!
Turning around, he saw it was Gu Feng!
"What are you doing?" Yan Wushuang asked, displeased.
Gu Feng smiled slightly and whispered, "Commander Yan, I advise you not to act rashly."
Yan Wushuang was taken aback, then looked at the strange seven black-clothed individuals, sensing something amiss, and decided to observe first.
"Big brother! This girl is so delicate. Who cares about anything else? Let's take her back to the mountain as your wife and consummate the marriage tonight! Wouldn't that be great?"
"Exactly! It's better to choose a day than to wait for it. Let's handle the wedding for big brother today!"
The two black-clothed individuals sang in agreement, causing the other five to burst into laughter.
The leader of the black-clothed group raised an eyebrow and laughed heartily, "Hahaha, why not! Today, we'll not only rob wealth but also take a beauty!"
Hearing words like "consummate" and "take a beauty," Jiang Chuyao was already so frightened her legs went weak. Her cultivation was only at the first stage of the Golden Elixir Realm, no match for these seven Elemental Infant Realm cultivators!
"Think of something, I don't want to be some bandit's wife!"
Fang Feixue rolled her eyes and whispered to Gu Feng, "Did you teach them those words?"
Gu Feng silently nodded.
"Disgusting, vulgar, utterly tasteless!" Fang Feixue scolded.
Ignoring Fang Feixue's complaints, Gu Feng felt secretly pleased.
So what if it's vulgar? As long as it works!
As long as Jiang Chuyao was scared out of her wits, to the point she couldn't recognize her own father, it was enough!
Whether others believed it or not didn't matter!
"Brother Gu! Please think of something!" Jiang Chuyao, desperate, grabbed Gu Feng's sleeve and pleaded.
Nodding solemnly, Gu Feng replied, "Don't worry, Miss Jiang. With me here, you have nothing to fear!"
With that, he stepped forward and shouted, "You bandits! Taste my sword!"
With a sudden charge, Gu Feng lunged at the leader of the black-clothed group, his sword pointing forward.
The black-clothed leader was momentarily stunned, but upon seeing Gu Feng's winking expression, he immediately understood.
He retreated several meters, casually waving his hand, and golden light burst forth.
Gu Feng quickly activated his true core, releasing a seven-colored aura that illuminated the sky brilliantly.
The palm strike was merely for show, barely brushing against Gu Feng's fingertip.
"Ah!"
With a strange cry, Gu Feng controlled his body to fly backward, appearing to be struck by the black-clothed leader's powerful palm.
He conveniently fell into Fang Feixue's arms, quickly biting his tongue to spit out blood.
Feigning a severely injured state, he weakly said to Jiang Chuyao, "Miss Jiang... they're too strong... I'm no match for them."
Clutching his chest, Gu Feng pretended to be gravely wounded, advising with a feeble voice.
"...In my opinion, you should just go along with this hero..."
