At this time, Father Gu, who was guarding Gu Changge outside the ancestral hall, suddenly felt that the aura in the hall was a little strange.
He had sealed off the fluctuations here.
Whether it was him or anyone else, it was very difficult to detect what was happening in the Nirvana Pond in the ancestral hall.
But at this moment, he felt uneasy.
For an expert like him, this kind of feeling was the most accurate.
So, without any time to think, Gu Lintian waved his sleeve and immediately opened the door to the ancestral hall.
But he had not yet entered.
A surge of demonic nature hit him in the face, causing his expression to change involuntarily.
"Not good!"
The thing he was most worried about had indeed happened. There were many things of creation in the Nirvana Pond, causing Gu Changge's demonic heart to transform again, increasing his demonic nature.
But it was obvious that he was still half a step too late.
From the shocking demonic nature in the pond, it was likely that this transformation was a disaster rather than a blessing for Gu Changge.
"Xian 'er, are you okay?"
Gu Lintian quickly reached the depths of the ancestral hall and saw Gu Xian 'er beside the Nirvana Pond with a dazed expression and traces of tears on her face. He asked worriedly.
What he was most worried about was that Gu Changge would attack Gu Xian 'er.
It had been like this more than ten years ago.
Now that Gu Changge could not suppress his demonic nature, what would happen? It was simply chilling to the bone.
Now that he saw that Gu Xian 'er was fine, he could not help but sigh in relief.
"Uncle, I'm fine."
Gu Xian 'er saw Gu Lintian come in and reacted, then said anxiously, "Uncle, quickly take a look at Gu Changge, his current state is very strange, and …"
As she said this, her voice began to tremble again.
"And in order not to hurt me, he broke his own arms …"
At this time, without Gu Xian 'er saying anything, Gu Lintian also saw Gu Changge sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed on the other side.
Gu Changge's arms were empty, and there were traces of five-colored blood on them. Astonishing divinity intertwined and filled the air, surging with vitality.
His injuries had already begun to heal.
At Gu Changge's level, as long as his True Spirit was not destroyed, regrowing a severed limb was just a matter of thought.
This kind of injury was nothing to him.
Gu Lintian wasn't surprised. From what he could see, Gu Changge's aura was very calm, no different from usual.
However, he couldn't tell if the current Gu Changge was the same as the Gu Changge of the past.
He could not help Gu Changge in suppressing the demonic nature.
"Changge is fine. You don't have to worry about him. It's fine as long as you're fine." Gu Lintian sighed and said to Gu Xian 'er.
He then saw the other three Gu Clan prodigies who had fainted in the corner. They were not seriously injured and had only fainted.
However, to be on the safe side, Gu Lintian still made a move and erased their memories of this period.
"Uncle …"
Seeing this scene, Gu Xian 'er did not know what to say. Her mind was in a mess.
She had many doubts and couldn't understand. Although 21 Gu Lintian said not to worry about Gu Changge, how could she not be worried?
If Gu Changge hadn't crippled his own arms at the critical moment, she would probably be dead now, right?
Could it be that Gu Changge had been fighting against the demonic nature all these years?
On the surface, Gu Changge seemed to be very impressive, and no one in the younger generation could compare to him.
However, who knew what kind of torture he had suffered in secret?
Gu Xian 'er could still clearly remember Gu Changge's violent expression just now, as if he wanted to slaughter the entire world!
Under such emotions, he was still able to maintain his clarity and rationality.
Especially just now, when Gu Changge had tried to protect her. How could she not have felt it?
Thinking of this, Gu Xian 'er looked at Gu Changge with a complicated expression. Guilt, absent-mindedness … all kinds of emotions.
Although Gu Changge was usually very bad and hateful, his attitude was still so cold, sometimes cold and sometimes warm.
However, he was actually very gentle and kind to her.
For a moment, Gu Xian 'er felt that the truth she had been searching for was right in front of her eyes.
"Uncle, why did Gu Changge suddenly become like this? You seemed to have known all this all along. "
Gu Xian 'er asked. Now, Gu Changge seemed to be listening to everything. He was sitting there cross-legged, the injury on his arm healing quickly.
She also didn't know what kind of face he would have when he opened his eyes.
Hearing this, Gu Lintian first looked at Gu Changge, then looked at Gu Xian 'er. She shook her head and sighed, "Just as you saw with your own eyes. However, it's better to let Changge tell you all this personally."
"I won't interfere in this kind of matter."
The matter of the demon heart was very important. Even if it was to be told, it had to be decided by Gu Changge himself.
As a father, he wouldn't interfere beyond his boundaries.
And even if he didn't say anything, with Gu Xian 'er's personality, she would very likely be able to guess all this.
After that, Gu Lintian waved his sleeve and left with Gu Changge. There were some things that he still had to ask Gu Changge personally.
"This might be Gu Changge's secret that no one has ever known." Seeing that Gu Lintian didn't say anything, Gu Xian 'er wasn't surprised.
She already knew very well.
This might have something to do with Gu Changge's innate talent when he was born. This caused his demonic nature to be deeply rooted, affecting his daily thoughts and actions.
That was why when he was young, he tried to dig out her Dao Bone.
Later on, as Gu Changge's cultivation grew stronger, he was able to gradually suppress this demonic nature and was no longer affected by it.
"Perhaps when Gu Changge dug out my Dao Bone, it was to suppress this demonic nature. And all these years, he felt guilty, so he wanted to make it up to me."
"And he seemed to know that there would come a day when he wouldn't be able to suppress this demonic nature, so he wanted me to work hard on my cultivation, so that I wouldn't be killed by him in the future …"
"He's obviously a very gentle person, but he pretends to be cold and indifferent. Gu Changge, how could you be so foolish?"
Gu Xian 'er muttered softly. She thought about how she had argued with Gu Changge over various trivial matters, not understanding his good intentions.
She couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
It was because of these reasons that Gu Changge was so disappointed in her.
Someone as smart as her quickly understood the ins and outs of the matter.
And today's matter was clearly a manifestation of Gu Changge's inability to suppress his demonic nature.
If not for Gu Changge's astonishing willpower at the critical moment to suppress his demonic nature, she would have been doomed. The consequences would have been unthinkable.
"Could it be that the Immortal Bone can help Gu Changge suppress his demonic nature … but after today, with his personality, he probably won't care about me anymore …"
"He said that I'm a piece of trash, that I can't help him …"
Gu Xian 'er suddenly felt vexed and conflicted.
Although she had found some clues, Gu Changge's demonic nature was deeply rooted. But as for how it had caused all this, she had no idea.
In other words, she only had a general understanding. If she wanted to know more about Gu Changge, she would have to ask him personally.
But with her understanding of Gu Changge, Gu Changge would never tell her.
Even if she already knew his deepest secret.
"Although the process will be very difficult, I will definitely help you solve this problem."
"I won't give up on you, Gu Changge!"
Thinking of this, Gu Xian 'er firmly said to herself in her heart.
Because she thought of the masters behind her. They knew far more than she did, and perhaps they would have a solution.
And there was also the mysterious Sister Tao Yao of ancient origins.
For even Gu Lintian to conceal this matter for Gu Changge, it was clearly not a good thing.
For Gu Changge's sake, she could not easily reveal it.
But there would definitely be no problem in telling her masters.
… …
"Father."
In the grand and ancient hall.
The fully recovered Gu Changge and Gu Lintian stood facing each other.
Gu Changge spoke with a respectful expression. His expression was no different from when he was in the ancestral hall.
His arms were restored, and there was no effect.
"How was the Nirvana Pond this time?"
Gu Lintian asked, carefully sizing up Gu Changge. It was indeed difficult to see anything from his appearance.
He also did not know how the eruption of the demonic nature this time would affect Gu Changge.
Fortunately, he had isolated his aura outside the ancestral hall.
Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable.
Gu Changge calmly replied, "It's no longer a problem. I underestimated the demonic heart's influence on me, but now I have suppressed it."
Although that was what he said, he was actually laughing in his heart.
At this time, he would definitely not tell the truth, so he might as well fool Gu Lintian as well.
How could the demonic nature affect him?
In order to make Gu Xian 'er completely trust him, Gu Changge had made such a move. Since ancient times, this trick had won over people's hearts.
When it came to acting, he was sure that there were no flaws.
At that time, all his actions seemed crazy, but in fact, there was a deep meaning behind them. Even his self-destruction of his arms at the critical moment was part of his calculations.
Gu Changge knew that if he had made a move at that time, the expert behind Gu Xian 'er would definitely have shown himself.
He was certain of this without a doubt.
That was why Gu Changge chose this method.
Not to mention Gu Xian 'er, even Gu Lintian had a sad and sad expression on his face.
Gu Changge did not feel guilty. If he had not said this, he would have left many hidden dangers.
In any case, he would have put all the blame on the demonic heart.
And now, it seemed that the effect was very obvious.
According to the System's notification, the Luck Points he had obtained from Gu Xian 'er were close to ten thousand.
"Xian 'er will probably ask you some questions about the demonic heart. You decide how to tell her. As an elder, it is not good for me to interfere in these matters."
Hearing this, Gu Lintian nodded.
"Father, don't worry. For the time being, the demonic heart will not affect me." Gu Changge spoke again.
"I know what to do with Xian 'er."
"I'm relieved to hear that. But I'm sorry to trouble you. All these years …"
Gu Lintian sighed slightly. After all, these things were not Gu Changge's original intention.
Otherwise, he would not have self-destructed his arms in an attempt to stop it.
Gu Xian 'er was smart and would not blame Gu Changge wrongly.
He also did not want to see Gu Changge being misunderstood. All these years, Gu Xian 'er's faction hated him for no reason. This was not an easy thing to do.
"As long as the demonic heart is not removed, it will be a big problem." Gu Lintian remembered many secrets about the demonic heart.
This was an ominous sign.
No matter which orthodoxy he belonged to, it would bring about unimaginable consequences.
Although Gu Changge was very popular now, once the demonic heart was exposed, although he would not become the enemy of the world like the inheritors of demonic arts, it would more or less affect him greatly.
After that, Gu Changge bid farewell and left the main hall, returning to his residence.
Along the way, many clan members looked at him with puzzled and strange expressions.
Although Gu Lintian resolved the matter in the ancestral hall's Nirvana Pond, it was impossible to keep it a secret. Many clan elders were paying close attention to this matter.
The news of Gu Changge's demonic cultivation had also spread in private.
This made many clan members feel strange. They did not expect that Gu Changge, who had the potential of becoming a True Immortal, would have a demonic heart and even cause it to erupt in the Nirvana Pond.
This caused quite a stir.
It was not strange for cultivators to have a demonic heart. But usually, it would only appear when they were older and had been cultivating for a long time.
Gu Changge was only in his twenties, but he already had a demonic heart. What did this mean?
Many clan members sighed. They felt that it was very likely that Gu Changge still felt guilty about digging out Gu Xian 'er's bones, and could not get rid of it.
Even if he dug out the bones and returned them to his sister, it was still the same. That was why he witnessed Gu Xian 'er's new bones in the Nirvana Pond and became demonic.
Many people agreed with this theory, and it spread privately in the Gu family.
The higher-ups also understood this and felt that this was very likely the truth.
But on the other hand, this was normal, and it made them feel a little relieved … If Gu Changge did not feel guilty about that matter, then there would be a problem.
The demonic heart was easy to resolve.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
The Nirvana Pond incident was like a small interlude, and did not continue to cause much of a stir.
On the contrary, Gu Xian 'er took the opportunity to break through to the Void God Realm, and her strength increased greatly, catching up with many young Heaven's Prides of the same generation.
In the entire Longevity Gu family, there were only a few people in this generation who could firmly suppress her in terms of cultivation.
There were also private rumors that Gu Changge's true cultivation was in the Divine King Realm, or even the Quasi-Saint Realm, but he had been hiding it in front of the world and had not been exposed.
Many people were shocked by the various theories.
The cultivation of the younger generation was the most important thing to any force.
And although Gu Changge acted in a high-profile manner, not many people knew his true cultivation.
The strength he displayed on the surface was only slightly stronger than that of some of the young Primes.
But recently, the Saintess of the Human Ancestor Palace, Wang Zijin, said that even she could not see through Gu Changge. If they fought, it was hard to tell who would win.
The Supreme Saint Realm assassins that appeared during this period were obviously from the inheritors of the demonic arts.
Wang Zijin's Quasi-Saint Realm cultivation also caused a stir in the world. Countless young cultivators were shocked and deeply shocked.
Before this, the young Forbidden Realm Gu Changge vaguely had the title of number one among his generation, and that was enough to make them despair.
It was like a huge mountain pressing down on their heads.
But now, the successor of the Human Ancestor Palace had appeared out of nowhere, and her Quasi-Saint Realm cultivation was shocking beyond words.
The so-called golden age, where the stars shone brightly, was nothing more than this.
Hearing this from her caused an uproar everywhere, and the world was shaken.
Gu Changge's true strength suddenly became the topic of discussion among various orthodoxies.
Many people felt that they might have missed something in the previous incident.
The previous successor of the demonic arts, Ye Ling, had dared to brazenly sneak into the Immortal Ancient Continent and attack the young Supreme Beings, which meant that he must have had someone backing him up.
But in the end, he was severely injured by Gu Changge and fled. Now, it seemed that Ye Ling was not too arrogant.
It was that Gu Changge, who he encountered, was too strong. His cultivation had obviously reached an unfathomable level.
For a moment, various orthodoxies and sects began to investigate Gu Changge.
Some even said that Gu Changge's technique in the Immortal Ancient Continent was suspected to be a law and order that only a Saint Realm cultivator could control.
All kinds of speculations appeared, and Gu Changge was once again pushed to the teeth of the storm.
And Wang Zijin, the initiator of all this, did not seem to feel that there was anything wrong with it. She felt that she had helped Gu Changge become famous.
…
"Is this Wang Zijin really stupid, or is she pretending to be stupid …"
In the main hall, Gu Changge frowned slightly when he heard the news.
Although his true cultivation level was 640, he had reached the mid-stage of the Saint Realm, but on the surface, his cultivation level was only at the Divine King Realm. He was still far from the Quasi-Saint Realm.
Gu Changge wanted to develop his strength in a wretched manner, but Wang Zijin thought too highly of herself and helped him become famous.
However, to Gu Changge, what he did not lack the most was fame.
If he attracted too much attention, it would not be good if the flaws in his plan were discovered.
Moreover, Gu Changge had another purpose.
If at this time, one or two ancient freaks appeared, looked down on his cultivation level, and came to make a name for themselves, it would be even better.
It just so happened that he lacked an opportunity to continue breaking through.
Since those ancient freaks and ancient kings had the guts to call themselves Kings, they must have their own strengths.
Wang Zijin's actions were equivalent to telling those ancient freaks that Gu Changge was not to be trifled with.
"You ruined my plans. I'll settle this with you first."
Gu Changge could not help but narrow his eyes. He knew these tricks very well and planned to make use of them.
However, Wang Zijin knew it too, so she acted on her own, thinking that it would make Gu Changge less trouble.
Perhaps Gu Changge would even have a good impression of her.
However, she did not know that Gu Changge planned to let these troubles come to him.
Because in the battle of the younger generation, there was no question of life and death. If they died at his hands … wouldn't those innate talents and origins be his?
"Young Master, the matter you instructed us to do has taken shape. All these years, Miss Xian 'er's parents have indeed been trapped in a plane world."
During this period of time, Yan Ji, who had been ordered by Gu Changge to secretly investigate the matter of Gu Xian 'er's parents, had also returned with this news.
"Very good." Gu Changge nodded.
"According to Young Master's instructions, I sent many people to secretly protect them. However, Miss Xian 'er's parents are very strong, and they found out …" Yan Ji continued.
"It's fine. I just want them to find out and feel that I have spent a lot of effort to secretly track them down. "Gu Changge could not help but smile.
He did not like to do good deeds without leaving a name.
He wanted to let the entire Gu family know about this matter and let them understand his good intentions as the Young Master.
Hearing this, Yan Ji somewhat understood. She nodded thoughtfully on her beautiful face.
"But why didn't Young Master show up personally? Why did you do it secretly and not let the Gu family members find out? "
She was a little confused. Wouldn't it be better for Gu Changge to do this kind of thing himself?
"After all, it's a matter of appearance."
"If I go personally, it won't be effective. Instead, it will have the opposite effect. It will make people think that I have other motives. That's why I have to do it secretly, understand? "
Gu Changge smiled casually and said something that Yan Ji did not understand.
Hearing this, her scarlet glass-like eyes revealed a sense of loss and bewilderment, and she seemed to be in a daze.
It was obvious that she did not understand the situation in the Gu family.
Gu Changge's words made her even more confused.
But at this time, she still nodded. "I understand."
Hearing this, Gu Changge looked at her and laughed. "When did even Yan Ji learn to speak nonsense in front of me?"
"Young Master …"
After being exposed like this by Gu Changge, Yan Ji could not help but blush a little.
At the same time, outside the Gu family's mountain gate.
A figure with a face shrouded in fog, wearing a moon-white robe, had traveled for a long time. During this time, she had made a trip to the Immemorial Ye Clan and finally arrived here.
She looked at the magnificent mountain gate in front of her and said to the immortal guard in front of the gate, "The successor of the Human Ancestor's Palace is here to visit Young Master Changge.
