In the dead of night.
The Exquisite Mountain Villa had regained its usual liveliness. Those who wanted to listen to music listened to music, those who wanted to drink drank. What happened during the day was still discussed enthusiastically, especially when people from Immortal Mansion came to arrest the guy who claimed to be the King who crippled Peng Jia. However, Steward Wei said that guy had already left.
How did he leave?
He said that he left quietly without anyone knowing.
Although Steward Wei said that, many people expressed their disbelief.
The entire Exquisite Mountain Villa was shrouded in layers of arrays. Even Immortals could not leave at will. The only way out was through the main gate. At that time, many people were guarding the main gate and did not see the swindler leave.
Could it be that Sister Hong was covering up for that swindler?
Thinking about it carefully, it seemed unlikely.
That swindler crippled Sengoku's son, Peng Jia, and broke the rules of the villa. How could Sister Hong cover up for him?
Many people guessed that perhaps the swindler was already dead … killed by Sister Hong.
Whether it was true or not, no one knew.
There were different opinions.
At this place.
Imperial Tutor's courtyard.
The Tang Man-ching and Lin Xiang-er had already left.
Only Chu Jiaohong was still lying on the imperial tutor's chair. Her eyes were slightly closed and she was silent. Her coquettish and charming face was set off by the faint moonlight, looking even more evil and bewitching.
She had been thinking about one question all this time. How did that guy come in so quietly, and how did he leave without anyone noticing?
She had thought about this question for a few hours, but she still couldn't figure it out. Instead, the more she thought about it, the more confused she became. The more she thought about it, the more she broke down. This was something that she thought was impossible, but it just happened.
"Grandmother Lu, tell me … how did this person do it?"
Chu Jiaohong reached out and touched her forehead slightly, feeling very depressed.
Beside her, Grandmother Lu bowed and shook her head, indicating that she also did not understand. She said, "This is the first time this old one has seen such a strange thing."
"This empress is puzzled. Why are there so many people in this world who pretend to be that guy surnamed Gu? And each one is more mysterious than the other. Why is this so?"
"Perhaps they are all like you, empress, looking for him? Didn't you also pretend to be that thief surnamed Gu? "
When this matter was mentioned, Chu Jiaohong's seductive and charming face couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.
She had indeed impersonated King Chixiao.
And their goal was to find the real King Chixiao.
Her motive for looking for Gu Tianlang was very simple — revenge.
He wanted to take revenge for being deceived and tricked by Gu Tianlang in the past, as well as for provoking and molesting him.
Speaking of which, that was a very long time ago.
A long time ago, Chu Jiaohong was still in a weak state of sleep. At that time, for some unknown reason, the cave was inexplicably opened by someone and a group of people barged in without permission.
Although she was very weak and in a state of deep sleep at that time, and the power that she could use was limited, she did not take those cultivators who barged in seriously. However, things were unpredictable. Among the group of people who barged in, there was a little guy who was not only strange, but also extremely cunning. Not only did he set up a trap to trick her, but he also used an illusion to deceive and deceive her. In the end, he took advantage of her weakness to provoke and humiliate her, and even molested her.
To this day, Chu Jiaohong could never forget how despicable, insidious, and cunning that little guy was. She could not forget how that guy humiliated her and molested her.
But there was nothing she could do.
Back then, Chu Jiaohong was weak and in a deep sleep. She was deceived and fell into layers of traps. She could not even move and could only be at the mercy of that little guy. In the end, not only was she molested by that guy, but all the treasures in the cave were also taken away. Even the most important token to her fell into that guy's pocket.
Back then, Chu Jiaohong swore that on the day she woke up, she would definitely cut that little guy into pieces.
When the Ancient Times ended and the Modern Times opened, all things recovered, and she finally woke up. The first thing she did was to investigate those who broke into the cave back then. She killed everyone and finally found out about the little guy who humiliated and molested her back then. His surname was Gu, his name was Tianlang, and his Taoist name was Chi Xiao.
She thought that she could take revenge.
However, what Chu Jiaohong did not expect was that that guy had already been annihilated by the Immortal Path's Trial 200 years before the Modern Times opened.
But she did not give up.
Because according to the rumors, that guy was probably not dead.
After that, Chu Jiaohong also investigated all the deeds of Gu Tianlang in detail and also suspected that that guy might really not be dead.
For this.
She had been looking for Gu Tianlang all these years.
However, what she never expected and what made her collapse was that not only were there many liars who pretended to be Gu Tianlang's descendants in this world, but there were also many liars who pretended to be Gu Tianlang himself. The one she found was fake, and she continued to look, but it was still fake. After so many years of searching, she was on the verge of a mental breakdown because she could not find a single one of them. All of them were f * cking imposters.
This was not the real reason why she collapsed. What really made her collapse was that those guys who pretended to be King Chixiao had identities that were more mysterious than the other, and their strength was more powerful than the other. When she tried to sound them out, she hit a wall at every turn. Some of them were so powerful that even she was afraid of them.
As for whether those guys who pretended to be Gu Tianlang were real or fake, she did not know. After searching for so many years, she increasingly felt that that guy's existence was extraordinary. If not, there would not be so many mysterious and powerful people looking for him.
After so many years, she no longer took the initiative to search.
The reason was simple.
She was tired.
Physically and mentally exhausted from searching.
Most importantly, the more she searched, the more she felt that the guy's existence was not simple. It was as if she had stirred up a big mess and offended many terrifying existences.
Even so.
She still did not give up.
Not only did she want to take revenge for that guy's molestation and molestation, but she also wanted to get back the token that Gu Tianlang had taken away. It was very important to her.
Unfortunately.
Fate made fools of people.
There were imposters all over the world, but she could not find a real Gu Tianlang.
She could not tell the real Gu Tianlang apart from the imposters, and she did not want to test them again.
Over the years, she had been hiding in the Yanluo Kingdom. It was not easy to figure out the identity of the King Chixiao of the Yanluo Kingdom. She did not expect that a Gu Tianlang would appear now.
To be honest.
Now, whenever she heard the name Gu Tianlang, Chu Jiaohong would have a headache. After searching for so many years, she began to have a shadow of the name Gu Tianlang.
"Empress, are you still worried about what happened in the past?"
"That was the biggest humiliation I have ever suffered in my life, how could I forget!"
"Sigh …"
Grandmother Lu sighed and said, "If possible, I hope Empress can let go of that obsession. Whether Gu Tianlang is alive or dead, his existence is much more complicated than we thought. Otherwise, there would not be so many mysterious people looking for him in the world."
"I know."
Granny Lu sighed again and said, "As for the man today, although I have never seen him before, I know that he has no cultivation and no luck, but he was able to shatter the minds of Steward Wei and the others with a single shout, and he was able to enter and exit the Eight Mysterious Heaven Formation that you personally set up. Just based on this, I feel that this man is no ordinary person, I hope that you won't test him … Over the years, you have injured yourself in order to find him, I'm really afraid that you …"
