Surnamed Gu?
What's wrong with surnamed Gu? There are many people surnamed Gu in the world.
Gray Elder didn't know what Wei Qing meant by saying that his surname was Gu. As he pondered, he suddenly thought of something. His heart couldn't help but tremble violently. He said in astonishment, "Young Master … you … you don't mean … you don't suspect that he's King Chixiao, do you?"
Wei Qing's face was full of worry. He shook his head slightly and remained silent.
"Back when the Crimson Firmament Sovereign King was in this world, he was subjected to nine Trials of the Immortal Dao. Even though the first few Trials of the Immortal Dao weren't able to kill him, the tenth Immeasurable Trial of the Immortal Dao descended upon him, turning him into ashes. Back then, many people witnessed it with their own eyes. There's no way he's still alive."
Gray Elder bowed and lowered his head. His heart was full of an indescribable feeling that even he didn't know. Seeing that Wei Qing didn't speak, he said, "Although there have been rumors over the years that King Chixiao is still alive and that he wasn't killed by the Immortal Dao's trial, he used a supreme method to deceive the world and used a supreme method to resurrect himself. Then, he ascended to the Heaven Realm under an alias. But rumors are just rumors. This matter has been spreading for three hundred years. No one knows whether it's true or not."
"Moreover, in order to find out the truth, the Nine Heavens have searched almost every corner of the Heaven Realm. There's no clue about King Chixiao. Taking a step back, even if King Chixiao wasn't killed by the Immortal Dao's trial and ascended to the Heaven Realm under an alias and then hid himself, even if he survived the catastrophe, he must have reincarnated through the Gate of Samsara. But … Gu Qingfeng doesn't have any impure aura on him. He's not a reincarnated person."
"Could it be that King Chixiao also used the bloodline inheritance to awaken like the Empress?"
Wei Qing shook his head and said, "He doesn't have any bloodline aura on him."
"But … Young Master, why do you suspect that he's King Chixiao?"
"I just came up with this strange idea by chance."
Wei Qing sighed.
To be honest, he also did not think that King Chixiao was still alive.
Just as Elder Hui had said, King Chixiao had committed a heinous crime in this world. The Immortal Dao would not allow him to live, the Demonic Dao would not allow it, and the Heavenly Dao would not allow it. Even if he had not died, if he was still alive, he would have either reincarnated or inherited his bloodline. There was no other way.
However, Gu Qingfeng did not have any impure aura on him. He was neither a reincarnation nor a bloodline inheritance.
He looked like an ordinary person, an ordinary person who couldn't be more ordinary.
But that was just how it looked.
How could an ordinary person's body be so strong?
How could an ordinary person's spiritual energy be so powerful when they were only in the Foundation Establishment Stage?
Would an ordinary person follow the Dao of Slaughter of three lives and three deaths?
The answer was yes.
Absolutely impossible.
As for who exactly Gu Qingfeng was, Wei Qing couldn't figure it out even if he racked his brains.
Wei Qing closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and quietly sensed the countless people gathered around him. At this moment, Wei Qing finally understood one thing.
Gu Qingfeng's massacre here was to intimidate, to intimidate everyone in the surrounding area and to solve unnecessary problems.
Gu Qingfeng had purposely used the Three Lives Three Deaths Massacre technique just now to lure them out. This move of his had lured out almost everyone who was related to the soul pearl. It was also thanks to Gu Qingfeng's bait that Wei Qing realized that there were actually so many terrifying existences who had been keeping an eye on the Empress' soul pearl from behind the scenes.
There were people with the Heavenly Edict.
There were people with the Buddhist Edict.
There were people with the Immortal Edict.
There were even people with the Demonic Edict.
At the same time, there were two mysterious people. Even Wei Qing did not know what these two existences were. He could only sense that there was an extremely holy spiritual aura on these two existences, and he knew that the meaning of the holy aura was too complicated. It was so complicated that he didn't dare to imagine it.
This caused Wei Qing's heart to be greatly alarmed and flustered.
He couldn't understand.
Her Majesty's use of great means had violated the laws of heaven and earth. The Buddhist Edict represented karma, and the Heavenly Edict represented the Heavenly Dao. But why were the people with the Immortal Edict here? And why was the Demonic Edict? And those two mysterious holy people, why did they do that?
Were they all here for the Empress?
That was impossible!
If that was the case, then how could the Empress' bloodline awaken?
Wei Qing felt his scalp go numb at the thought of so many people with the Imperial Edict.
In the arena.
Elder Sen knelt respectfully and tremblingly.
So did Ouyang Hai.
Opposite him, the white-robed man still stood with his hands behind his back. He only frowned slightly as he looked at the Lunar Seed on the table. Then, he turned to look at the surrounding crowd.
"You … are any of you here to find me?"
Gu Qingfeng's expression was cold. His dark eyes were like a silent abyss, but also like the endless Dead Sea. When he swept his gaze, it was a gaze that looked disdainfully at the world. His voice was quiet, but it was domineering.
That disdainful gaze looked down on the heavens, as if it could see through everything in the world.
That domineering voice was insufferably arrogant, as if it could intimidate all things in the world.
In the distance, on the sand dune, Wei Qing lowered his head. He knew that Gu Qingfeng's question was directed at the people with the Imperial Edict, Buddhist Edict, and Immortal Edict hidden in the crowd.
Why did he ask?
What did he want to do?
Was he testing?
What was he testing?
Thinking of this, Wei Qing's expression froze. He thought to himself, "Could it be that not all of the people with the Imperial Edict are here for the Empress?" And for him?
But why?
He didn't know.
He couldn't figure it out.
Just as Wei Qing was feeling puzzled, Gu Qingfeng's domineering voice sounded again.
"If you're looking for me, you can step forward now."
He was indeed testing.
He was testing whether these people with the Imperial Edict were here for the Empress or for him.
Time passed bit by bit, but no one stepped forward.
Suddenly.
Gu Qingfeng's body flickered with a murky brilliance that burned like flames. The flames were mixed with countless sparks of thunder and lightning. These sparks of thunder and lightning burned and exploded within the flames, producing a series of crackling sounds that made one's scalp numb and hair stand on end.
Faintly, a palm-sized rune appeared on his chest. The rune was faintly discernible in the flames, blurring and twisting.
The others did not know what this rune was.
Wei Qing, however, knew that it was a type of Heart-Killing Soul Control Rune. It was an extremely brilliant technique. Once this rune was planted, one's heart would be destroyed and one's soul would be controlled.
Obviously, at some unknown time, someone had planted the Heart-Killing Soul Control Rune on Gu Qingfeng's body.
"What's the matter?" Gu Qingfeng gently raised his hand and grasped the Heart-Killing Soul Control Rune on his chest. A disdainful smile flashed across the corners of his mouth. "You have the guts to plant this broken thing on my body, but you don't have the guts to step forward?"
With that, he clenched his five fingers. When he clenched his fist, there was a series of crackling sounds. The Heart-Killing Soul Control Rune was instantly crushed by him.
Gu Qingfeng's gloomy eyes swept across the scene, then fell on an unfamiliar man in the crowd. The unfamiliar man's expression changed. With a whoosh, he turned into a ray of brilliance and disappeared in the sky.
"Tidy up the manor. I'll come find you later."
Leaving behind these words, Gu Qingfeng's tiptoe tapped. With a whoosh, he shot straight into the sky like an arrow.
At the same time, whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh! Several rays of brilliance from the crowd also chased after him.
