Zhou Yi asked, "What did Senior Brother do before he began his cultivation?"
Gu Xiao replied, "When I was born, the Gu family had already been passing down its legacy for a thousand years. When I was young, I would often recite the scriptures, and my physical body was bathed and refined with Spiritual Objects to forge a superior Dao foundation."
"Junior Brother stands too high, how would he know of worldly affairs."
Ling Ming shook his head and said, "The Imperial Court taxes thirty percent, and neither the state nor the county government should impose miscellaneous fees. It's especially those petty officials who are the most odious. Back when my cultivation had some success, I first beheaded a few jailers in the heavenly prison!"
"Why would Senior Brother go to such lengths?"
