On the top of the mountain, there were rugged rocks and flourishing ancient trees. The moonlight was bleak and cold, and the mountain breeze was blowing, making the place even more secluded and quiet.
Su Qingge stared blankly at the arrival of Gu Changge. Especially when she heard his words, she felt her head buzzing and went blank. She didn't know what to say.
The moment Gu Changge arrived, she had actually planned to confess everything.
She was the real inheritor of the demonic arts. The meaning of her existence was to bring chaos to the world.
And Gu Changge, as the most brilliant Heavenly Son of the younger generation, was born to stand on the opposite side of her. He was destined to kill her.
But she had never expected that Gu Changge would tell her not to be afraid.
At this moment, even the other soul in her sea of consciousness, which had always felt Gu Changge was indifferent and not a good person, couldn't help but tremble and couldn't say a word.
And when Gu Changge said this, he even took half a step forward and quietly shielded Su Qingge behind him.
"Is there any misunderstanding … Elder Mo, you've got the wrong person."
He looked at Elder Mo, who looked a little stunned and confused, and said calmly.
It seemed that he was going to protect Su Qingge.
"Young Master …"
Seeing Gu Changge's action, Su Qingge was even more stunned. Her voice trembled and her eyes turned red.
She really didn't expect Gu Changge would do such a thing at this moment. He didn't ask her why.
Instead, he subconsciously shielded her behind him.
Gu Changge trusted her so much and cared about her that he even didn't hesitate to have a conflict with the elder of the Immortal Academy in front of him.
This moved her so much that she couldn't calm down for a long time.
Normally, Gu Changge would definitely suspect her when he came here and connected with the young Heavenly Son who just had an accident.
After all, what was she doing outside in the middle of the night instead of practicing in her own cave residence?
Gu Changge was so smart. Was there anything in the world that he couldn't see through?
Su Qingge had even thought about Gu Changge's tone and expression. But she really did not expect that Gu Changge trusted her so much.
Perhaps in his eyes, she was just a harmless little maidservant that he had brought from the lower realms.
"Young Lord Changge, what is the meaning of this?"
At this time, Elder Hiroshi, who was slightly stunned, quickly reacted to Gu Changge's meaning and asked in a deep voice.
He was a shrewd old man himself, so he quickly understood why Gu Changge had such a reaction.
It turned out that the woman in front of him was one of Gu Changge's people. The inheritor of Devil Art 21 that he had been searching for was actually right beside him.
However, Gu Changge knew nothing about this and even took the initiative to protect this woman.
Elder Hiroshi couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Things were really wonderful. No, it was more than wonderful.
Just now, he was actually a little worried and broke out in a cold sweat. In the end, he didn't expect things to take such a turn.
A person like Gu Changge could actually be kept in the dark like this.
Sure enough, it was like the old saying that since ancient times, heroes could not resist the charms of beautiful women.
So now, Elder Hiroshi was thinking about how to get away with tonight's matter.
Anyway, Gu Changge had never suspected this at all.
Hearing this, Gu Changge's expression was still calm, but there was an additional sense of dominance in his words.
"Elder Hiroshi, what do you mean? Could it be that you think Qingge is the inheritor of Devil Art, so you captured her and brought her here? "
He stared at Elder Hiroshi in front of him. There were runes flashing in his eyes and strands of divine light. He did not care at all about Elder Hiroshi's identity. His attitude was incomparably tough and unquestionable.
Hearing this, Elder Hiroshi seemed to be slightly taken aback, as if he didn't expect Gu Changge to say this.
Then, he couldn't help but shake his head. He sighed and smiled bitterly, "Young Master Changge, you misunderstand. No matter how stupid this old man is, I know that there is only one inheritor of Devil Art, and it is that Prince Ying, Ying Shuang. How could I casually capture others?"
"It's just that I saw this girl wandering around alone in the middle of the night and was very worried. I specially came to warn her and let her quickly return to the cave residence."
"Since this girl is Young Master Changge's person, then it couldn't be better. Maybe she saw you disappear in the middle of the night and came out to look for you."
Towards the end, he couldn't help but smile, and his expression was somewhat ambiguous.
Hearing this, Gu Changge's expression relaxed slightly. He nodded and said, "So that's how it is. I misunderstood Elder Hiroshi's good intentions."
"It's fine, it's fine. Since this girl is Young Master Changge's person, then she naturally has nothing to do with the inheritor of Devil Art."
"Regarding this, this old man is quite convinced." Old Hiroshi hurriedly waved his hand and smiled.
Then, he glanced at Su Qingge and said with a smile, "Little girl, you should be more careful in the future. If you wander around in the middle of the night, it's very easy to encounter the inheritor of Devil Art. Alas, another disciple was murdered tonight …"
At this time, Su Qingge also calmed down.
She nodded, "I know. Thank you for your reminder, Elder."
She didn't know why Old Hiroshi took the initiative to help her, but her identity as the inheritor of Devil Art was now known by him.
It was equivalent to saying that Old Hiroshi had something on her.
Therefore, she'd better go along with his words first, and then see what he had up his sleeve.
"If that's the case, then this old man will leave first. By the way, I'll see if that disciple who was murdered left any clues …"
After saying this, Old Hiroshi didn't stay any longer. His figure turned into a divine rainbow and disappeared from the mountain peak. He left this place and hurried to the cave residence of that disciple who was murdered by Su Qingge just now.
It seemed that he was going to investigate.
But if Su Qingge accidentally left any evidence, he could help her to get rid of it, so as not to arouse other people's suspicion.
After seeing Su Qingge's means with his own eyes tonight, Old Hiroshi was sure of her identity.
Even a figure like Gu Changge was kept in the dark. Su Qingge's scheming and shrewdness were simply chilling.
But this was in line with the identity of the inheritor of Devil Art that he had always known.
On the contrary, Ying Shuang, in his opinion, was very different from the inheritor of Devil Art in terms of character and means. Now, she seemed to be an unlucky person who took the blame.
"What happened tonight was really unexpected …"
Old Hiroshi sighed in his heart.
On the mountain peak, the moonlight was still there, but the rosy clouds were flowing and the white fog was pervading, but it was more secluded and quiet.
Seeing Old Hiroshi's figure disappear, Gu Changge calmed down and didn't say anything.
Inexplicably, Su Qingge felt that Gu Changge's eyes were full of scrutiny and contemplation, but more importantly, there was a kind of indifference that made her feel scared.
"Young Master …"
Su Qingge called softly and wanted to pull Gu Changge's sleeve, but he quietly avoided her.
Gu Changge stared at her and still didn't say anything, but Su Qingge understood what he meant.
If she didn't give him a reasonable explanation that satisfied him, what happened today would probably not be covered up.
Su Qingge couldn't help but lament in her heart. If there was a slight mistake, from now on, Gu Changge probably wouldn't trust her anymore.
This made her even more flustered and uneasy. If Gu Changge treated her like this from now on, Gu Changge would treat her like this.
She would rather expose her identity as the inheritor of Devil Art than let things become like this.
What Gu Changge said in front of Old Hiroshi just now was to protect her. But after Old Hiroshi left, Gu Changge naturally didn't need to treat her like that.
In Su Qingge's eyes, Gu Changge's opinion of her was actually much more important than whether her identity as the inheritor of Devil Art was exposed or not.
"I'm sorry, Young Master, I shouldn't have kept things from you …"
She thought about her words, weighed her words, and spoke uneasily.
"Oh, now you know the explanation. If I didn't come here just now, do you think Elder Mo would let you go so easily? "
Hearing this, Gu Changge's voice didn't fluctuate much.
Su Qingge didn't dare to look at him with her bright eyes. Guilt filled her beautiful, white, jade-like face.
"I know I'm wrong, Young Master. Actually, I left the cave residence in the middle of the night and came here to look for something."
"I bought a mysterious jar at the auction house earlier. In fact, that mysterious jar is related to the Seven Weapons of Heaven Wielding from the Upper Realm, but I didn't tell Young Master about this …"
"And that jar is one of the Seven Weapons of Heaven Wielding. As long as you're within a certain distance, you can sense the whereabouts and existence of other Weapons of Heaven Wielding."
"So I came here tonight to investigate the whereabouts of the Weapons of Heaven Wielding. But I accidentally bumped into that Elder Mo."
Su Qingge explained. She didn't lie. This was also her other purpose tonight.
She just hid the fact that she was the inheritor of the demonic technique.
As she spoke, there was a flash of brilliance in her palm. An ordinary-looking jade jar appeared. The patterns on it were very ancient, as if it could be worn out at any time.
"Seven Weapons of Heaven Wielding?"
Gu Changge asked in return. He couldn't help but laugh. However, to Su Qingge, there was a hint of mockery in his laughter.
"Before this, you've never mentioned it to me."
Of course, Gu Changge knew about the rumors of the Seven Weapons of Heaven Wielding, but he didn't specifically investigate.
This was because he knew that this kind of thing would always fall into the hands of those with great providence as long as there were signs.
He just had to wait until the end to pick the fruit.
To be honest, he was a little surprised that Su Qingge had the Heaven Wielding Jar.
"I'm sorry, Young Master. I shouldn't have hidden this from you …" Su Qingge said guiltily.
However, Gu Changge waved his hand and interrupted her. His expression was indifferent. "Fine, I won't ask you too much. After all, this is your personal matter."
"But some things will happen again and again. I don't know how many times it will happen. After all, a person's patience is always limited. I don't know what else you're hiding from me, but I don't want to ask anymore. "
"Su Qingge, you're on your own now."
After saying this, Gu Changge moved his body and was about to turn around and leave.
However, the moment he turned around, Su Qingge threw herself at his chest with tears in her eyes.
"I'm sorry, Young Master. I won't hide anything from you anymore."
She hugged Gu Changge tightly. Her voice was trembling, as if she was afraid that he would turn around and leave her alone.
She was really afraid. However, she really couldn't tell Gu Changge that she was the inheritor of the demonic technique.
Once she told him, they would definitely be on opposite sides.
Therefore, she could only hope that this matter could be hidden from Gu Changge for a lifetime.
Hearing this, Gu Changge was silent. At last, he sighed and wiped the tears from her eyes. "I hope so."
His tone was very complicated.
At this moment, Su Qingge couldn't guess what Gu Changge was thinking about. She was anxious.
Then, the two figures left from the mountain top.
On the way, Gu Changge didn't say anything. Everything that happened tonight was within his expectations. He was not surprised at all.
Neither Su Qingge nor Old Mo knew the real purpose of Gu Changge. For him, they were just pawns.
Just as Su Qingge said a long time ago, in Gu Changge's eyes, she was at most a little handmaiden by his side.
When he was in a good mood, he would tease her. Usually, she was just left on the other side.
Her identity as the inheritor of the demonic technique was not worth mentioning at all in Gu Changge's eyes.
Of course, her beauty and intelligence were her biggest advantages. Even if they were not, they were still pleasing to the eye.
Then, various thoughts flashed through Gu Changge's mind. In the end, he was considering whether to get rid of Ying Shuang.
For the time being, Su Qingge got in touch with the organization of the inheritors of the demonic technique. Old Mo would definitely contact her in secret.
As long as Gu Changge kept an eye on Su Qingge's whereabouts and movements, he would know all kinds of information about this organization.
Except for Old Mo, no one knew Ying Shuang's identity yet. And Old Mo would probably think Ying Shuang was a scapegoat arranged by Su Qingge.
Su Qingge didn't know where Ying Shuang was. In this way, even if Ying Shuang mysteriously disappeared, it wouldn't cause too much trouble.
Old Mo would probably think it was Su Qingge who did it.
Soon, Gu Changge had a detailed plan in his mind.
"Before that, Ying Shuang has another purpose. I can make use of her."
"By the way, I should arrange for Lord of Heaven Ziyang. This guy has been bothering Gu Xian 'er recently. It's time to teach him a lesson."
…
The news that a young Heavenly Legend was assassinated again spread quickly, causing more panic and uneasiness.
No one had expected that only a few days after the incident, another disciple would be killed by the inheritor of the demonic technique.
Especially when Gu Changge and Elder Mo were investigating, it happened right under their noses. Once it happened, more disciples became uneasy and frightened.
Even those quasi-disciples were panicking.
From this incident, it was enough to show the arrogance and wildness of the inheritor of the demonic technique. He didn't care at all that this was the territory of the Immortal Academy.
Even the Elders couldn't do anything about it. What could ordinary young Heavenly Legends do?
For a moment, the Immortal Academy was shrouded in a heavy and uneasy atmosphere. All the disciples were more cautious and vigilant.
"This inheritor of the demonic technique is too arrogant. He poisoned two Heavenly Legends one after another …"
"Chuchu, this is the best chance for you to find him. I remember that with your talent, you can trace the traces, right? If you can find some clues, you might be able to find the hidden identity of the inheritor of the demonic technique. "
In a cave dwelling located in a secluded forest, mist filled the air, and it was abnormally bright.
Wang Zijin rested her chin on her hand as she stared at Jiang Chuchu, who was meditating in front of her. She seemed to find it very boring.
"You're suddenly so interested in the inheritor of the demonic technique? Looks like you have too much free time. "
Hearing this, Jiang Chuchu opened his eyes and said calmly.
Normally, with Wang Zijin's personality, she wouldn't care about the inheritor of the demonic technique, even if she was the successor of the Human Ancestor's Hall.
The last time she fought in the Absolute Yin Battlefield was when she was in the Longevity Gu Clan. She was assassinated by the person sent by the inheritor of the demonic technique, and it had always been on her mind.
Now that she said this, it was purely because she was too bored and wanted to find something to do.
"What do you mean I have too much free time? The inheritor of the demonic technique is so arrogant. As the successor of the Human Ancestor's Hall, is it wrong for me to find him and enforce justice on behalf of the heavens, returning peace to the world?"
Wang Zijin retorted. "Jiang Chuchu, when did you learn how to insult others?"
"Then go ahead. I won't be able to find him anyway." Jiang Chuchu shook his head. His expression was still calm. "Even the elders, who are Paragons, are helpless. What can I do?"
Moreover, so what if he found some clues?
Expose Gu Changge?
Jiang Chuchu sighed inside. His thoughts were extremely complicated. During this period of time in the True Immortal Academy, she had actually been secretly paying attention to Gu Changge.
She didn't know whether Gu Changge had noticed or not. Perhaps he had noticed, but he didn't care at all and couldn't be bothered with her.
What happened in the depths of the Absolute Yin Battlefield constantly appeared in her mind, and she couldn't get it out of her head at all.
Jiang Chuchu found it difficult to calm down.
If Gu Changge didn't have her in his heart, why would he appear to save her and go to the Absolute Yin Battlefield to resolve the Absolute Yin Calamity?
However, Gu Changge then ignored her, as if he was a stranger. This made her feel very uncomfortable.
"This isn't your style in the past."
"In the past, you hated evil. When you heard about the inheritor of the demonic arts, you almost frowned and pulled out your sword to kill. How could you talk to me so calmly like you are now?"
Hearing this, Wang Zijin had a suspicious look on her face. She moved closer to Jiang Chuchu.
Her clear and bright eyes that seemed to be able to speak stared at her.
Jiang Chuchu was still calm when she heard this. "Why should I think about him when I can't do it?"
"You've really changed. You're no longer the Jiang Chuchu I know … Now, you're not looking for the reincarnation of the Human Ancestor, and you don't care about the calamity descending on the Absolute Yin Battlefield. You're also looking at the inheritor of the demonic arts with folded arms …"
"All you do all day is cultivate, cultivate, or just stare blankly."
Wang Zijin's voice was filled with deep suspicion. "Jiang Chuchu, don't tell me you're in love?"
Jiang Chuchu's expression stiffened slightly. It was a little unnatural, but she quickly recovered.
She asked calmly, "What are you talking about? With our current strength, if we don't cultivate, what will we do when we encounter the inheritor of the demonic arts in the future?"
"Keep talking nonsense. Jiang Chuchu, something really did happen between you and Gu Changge. It's fine if you don't want to admit it, but now you want to change the topic … "
"Let me tell you, that guy Gu Changge is a Sea King. Don't look like a good person, but he's actually very bad. When the time comes, he'll eat you up until there's nothing left. Don't regret it. "
Wang Zijin had a look of "I've already seen through all your tricks". She couldn't help but persuade her.
"You …"
Hearing this, Jiang Chuchu finally looked a little angry. She felt like she had been exposed.
Buzz!!
In the next moment, multicolored light filled her palm. Runes intertwined, and a terrifying aura was about to turn into a divine sword.
Just as she was about to teach this Wang Zijin a lesson, she suddenly heard a man's gentle voice outside the cave abode.
"Is Saintess Zijin here?"
This familiar voice caused Jiang Chuchu and Wang Zijin to both be stunned.
