In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed since the start of the Immortal Academy's trial.
During this period of time, Gu Changge had been living in seclusion. Even his many followers had rarely seen him.
Some said that Gu Changge had gone to the place where the Catastrophe of Absolute Yin broke out to kill the living beings of Absolute Yin.
However, some said that Gu Changge was actually in seclusion to cultivate a powerful supernatural power.
There were many different theories.
However, no one dared to pay a visit to verify its authenticity. Even the Vermillion Bird King was now as silent as a cicada in winter.
At this moment, in the Vermillion Bird Imperial Capital, in a magnificent and tall pavilion.
Su Qingge and Ji Qingxuan sat opposite each other.
"Elder Sister, are you leaving this place now?" Ji Qingxuan's eyes were filled with shock.
She did not expect that the first thing Su Qingge said after coming here was to tell her that she was leaving.
Did that mean that the exchange of identities would last for a long time?
"Yes. Since the Wang family won't find trouble with you now, I'll pretend to be you and visit mother in the Ji family."
"I haven't seen her for many years. This is a good opportunity."
Su Qingge nodded and said with a complicated expression, "Did the young master not suspect you during this time?"
"No." Ji Qingxuan shook her head.
Then, she showed a happy smile, "The young master is very good to me. However, I haven't seen him for many days. He seemed to have left the Vermillion Bird Imperial Capital and went to the place where the Catastrophe of Absolute Yin broke out."
"Is that so?"
Su Qingge nodded. She did not know what she was feeling at this moment.
Why would she be jealous of her sister? She was pretending to be herself.
"Oh right … Sister, I have something to tell you."
At this moment, Ji Qingxuan's calm face started to stutter.
She looked a little shy and embarrassed.
"What is it?"
Su Qingge was confused. She did not know why but she had a bad feeling in her heart.
"It's … It's that day … I …"
Ji Qingxuan looked at her sister uneasily. She did not mean to say this. She wanted to show off.
However, she felt that if she changed back, Gu Changge might notice something.
That was why he told Su Qingge.
"What?" Su Qingge was stunned. Her head buzzed as if she was struck by lightning.
Her face paled, and the ominous feeling in her heart grew even more pronounced.
Before this, Gu Changge had never wanted her body.
But why was Gu Changge like this after exchanging identities with Ji Qingxuan?
Something was amiss.
"Could it be that Young Master already knows …"
Su Qingge was very smart and connected the dots almost instantly. But she still had the last trace of fantasy, thinking that it might be a coincidence.
"Sister, I'm sorry …" Ji Qingxuan apologized.
"It's not your fault."
After a long silence, Su Qingge waved her hand and forced herself to calm down, but she felt bitter in her heart.
Suddenly, she thought of a possibility. What if her younger sister replaced her and stayed by Gu Changge's side?
After all, Gu Changge was the young leader of the righteous faction, while she was the inheritor of the demonic arts. She was destined to be his enemy in the end.
She should take advantage of the fact that Gu Changge still didn't know her true identity. Otherwise, she really didn't know how to face all this in the future.
"Qingxuan, I might not come back for a long time …"
Su Qingge calmed down and said, "If Young Master finds out about this during this period of time, tell him that Qingge failed to live up to his trust …"
With that, her figure flashed and she left the place.
"Sister …" Ji Qingxuan was at a loss for a moment. She felt that her sister seemed to have shed tears in the end.
What was she hiding? Why did she have such a deep hatred?
…
At the same time.
Saint Spirit Ancient City.
As the gathering place of various ancient countries, there were all kinds of living beings and cultivators here.
Not only could one meet young people who had just started cultivating, but also ascetic monks who had been sitting cross-legged for hundreds of thousands of years.
One could also see the disciples of the major sects and the Ancients. It was very prosperous and could accommodate nearly ten million people.
Inside the city, there was a dazzling and magnificent palace.
A charming woman in white was standing there, directing a group of maids in front of her to read something.
The woman in white was so beautiful that she was flawless. Her eyes were sparkling, and she was so beautiful that it was almost seductive.
At this moment, she was hugging her nine fluffy, snow-white fox tails that were shining brightly. She frowned and said, "Hurry up. Do you need so much time to investigate?"
"Miss, please wait for a moment."
The maids heard her and quickly said, "Most of the information about Chu Hao seems to have been purposely hidden by someone. We can't find anything …"
"You can't find anything?" The woman in white frowned in disbelief.
"Is there anything in this world that the Business Alliance can't find out?"
She could find some clues about the Gu family's scandal. Why couldn't she find anything about the Third Prince of the small Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird?
"Forget it. You don't have to investigate anymore, Yin Mei."
"I've already guessed who's helping Chu Hao."
At this moment, a young man's voice came from behind the palace's curtain.
"Master, you know?"
Yin Mei was slightly stunned, but she didn't ask much. She waved her hand and dismissed the maids.
"Yes, I know. It should be someone from the Business Alliance."
Gu Changge sat there, quietly drinking the fragrant tea. She blew the steam to her mouth, raised the cup, and drank it all.
"The tea you make is still the best."
He complimented and seemed to be in a good mood.
When he couldn't find anything in the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird, he knew that the person who helped Chu Hao behind the scenes was not a simple person. He was very smart and hid all traces well.
That was why he came to the Saint Spirit Ancient City. There was a branch of the Business Alliance here and he could contact Yin Mei to come over.
"Master, since you like it so much, I'll make it for you every day."
Yin Mei walked over and said with a smile.
She didn't choose to cultivate in the Immortal Academy because she knew that it would be difficult for her to help Gu Changge no matter how high her cultivation level was.
She decided to take charge of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan's authority in the Business Alliance so that she could provide more help to Gu Changge.
The biggest force behind the Business Alliance was the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan. As an ancient royal family, they had a strong foundation.
Although many orthodoxies had joined the Business Alliance over the years, the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan still had the most authority.
"How much do you know about this Tang Wan?"
Gu Changge smiled and picked up the jade scroll in front of him. There were many people that he suspected in the past. After filtering and eliminating them, he had made up his mind.
He had already decided on a candidate. The person who was helping him behind Chu Hao was Tang Wan.
It wasn't difficult to find her.
First of all, he only needed to know who was around the same age as Chu Hao and had stayed in the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird.
As long as Gu Changge casually checked these familiar routines, she could almost quickly determine the candidate.
Tang Wan was smart and knew how to avoid suspicion. She deliberately hid her traces. However, as long as she had been to the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird, the traces could not be erased.
Moreover, Tang Wan didn't know that Yin Mei was one of his people.
"Tang Wan seems to be quite capable. She started working in the Business Alliance hundreds of years ago. The Tang Family has a lot of influence in the Business Alliance. Her grandfather is the leader of a sub-alliance and has many powerhouses under him … "
Yin Mei explained. She told Gu Changge all the information about Tang Wan in her mind.
"The leader of a sub-alliance. Seems like he has a lot of power." Gu Changge smiled casually.
As one of the biggest business alliances in the Upper Realm, the Business Alliance was almost everywhere in the Upper Realm. Its power was beyond imagination.
Even the sect leaders of some imperishable sects had to treat the leader of a sub-alliance with caution, not daring to look down on him.
"Did Tang Wan offend you, Young Master?"
Yin Mei asked. Then, she said, "I know that she has a younger brother named Tang Tian. He's not that old and he's a playboy. He's used to being arrogant and domineering. The Tang Family dotes on him."
"She has a younger brother?"
Gu Changge smiled meaningfully. "That's great."
"What's wrong with this Tang Wan? Why must she go against me?"
"Don't you think she deserves to die?"
"She deserves to die." Yin Mei nodded obediently. "Anyone who goes against Master deserves to die."
…
"Young Master, I heard that the Drunken Immortal Inn has a new batch of goods this time. Do you want to take a look?"
A young man with a frivolous face and sunken eye sockets was walking on the street filled with cultivators.
He glanced at the young living beings and cultivators around him. Of course, his focus was mainly on the young female cultivator. He kept sizing her up.
A stout man who looked like a butler followed beside the young man and asked carefully with a smile.
"What kind of goods can the Drunken Immortal Inn have?"
The young man, Tang Tian, said disdainfully.
Although he looked like he was walking alone, there were many cultivators with powerful auras following behind him secretly to protect him.
"I heard that the goods in the Drunken Immortal Inn this time are from the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan." The stout man said with a smile.
"Nine-Tailed Fox Clan?"
Tang Tian was stunned when he heard that. Then, his eyes lit up and he asked, "Is it real or fake? Doesn't the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan value this the most? Why would they be in the Drunken Immortal Inn? "
Although he was a playboy, it did not mean that he was stupid.
The Nine-Tailed Fox Clan was an ancient royal family. How could it be easy to meet them?
However, he knew that the women of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan were all extremely beautiful.
"Young Master, don't worry. I heard that the goods this time were expelled from the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan …"
The stout man chuckled. "So Young Master, don't worry."
Tang Tian snorted. "If you dare lie to me, I won't let you off."
The stout man hurriedly said, "I wouldn't dare. With Young Master's identity, who would dare lie to you."
"Hmph, at least you know your place."
Then, Tang Tian hurried to the Drunken Immortal Inn.
When they arrived, under the arrangement of the stout man, they saw a frightened girl from the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan in a private room on the second floor. Needless to say, she was very beautiful.
However, what puzzled him was that the girl from the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan was tied up, and even her mouth was gagged.
"Young Master, her temperament is a bit stubborn. But you can rest assured that there will be no problem. When the time is over, I hope you can put in a good word for me in front of Miss Wan. "
The stout man hurriedly explained.
"I know, I know. Hurry up and get lost."
At this time, Tang Tian felt that he was very long-winded and said impatiently. He did not suspect anything at all.
As for putting in a good word for him in front of his sister?
Did he dare to say such a thing?
"Then I won't disturb Young Master." The stout man said with a smile and left the private room.
"The Nine-Tailed Fox Clan girl is indeed worthy of her reputation. That appearance, that figure …"
In the private room, Tang Tian was extremely excited and was about to make a move.
Suddenly, a terrifying aura came from outside the Drunken Immortal Inn. It was as if it was going to destroy everything, with anger and coldness.
"Who is it? How dare you disturb my mood? "
Tang Tian was unhappy, but he heard several screams coming from outside. His expression changed and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
Because the screams came from the cultivators who were secretly protecting him.
"How dare you lay your hands on my maid!"
Asking for fresh flowers …
Accompanied by a bone-chilling voice, but it was like the sound of nature.
Numerous strands of sword qi bloomed in midair while terrifying killing intent enveloped down from the sky and instantly blasted apart the Immortal Indulgence Inn!
The faces of all the cultivators on the street changed drastically as they retreated in shock.
In the sky, a woman in white walked over with an ice-cold expression. The long sword behind her floated in the air, releasing millions of rays of light. Her killing intent was about to freeze and split the sky.
A cultivator with a tyrannical aura in the dark did not have time to react before he was pierced by the sword qi. His body and soul were directly destroyed, and his soul scattered into ashes without a trace.
"Shopkeeper Zhu, what's going on?"
Tang Tian was a little uneasy in his heart, and his face was pale. He hurriedly walked out of the private room and wanted to ask the stout man from before.
He was panicking in his heart. What was going on?
Could it be that there was a mistake?
Could it be that there was a problem with this Nine-Tailed Fox Clan girl?
However, Tang Tian did not have time to react. The scene he saw after walking out of the private room was simply shocking to him. His entire body was stunned, and he could not react for a long time.
"You're slandering me, don't talk nonsense …"
Tang Tian roared in anger, incomparably sinister.
However, the stout man knelt on the ground, ignoring him. His face was filled with fear, regret, panic and other emotions. He kept saying, "All of this was ordered by Young Master Tang Tian, it has nothing to do with this lowly one!"
"Young Master Tang Tian said that if anything happened, he would take responsibility alone. Otherwise, this lowly one would not dare to have the guts to ask Young Master Tang Tian to bring people to the Drunken Immortal Restaurant."
"I hope Heavenly Lady can forgive me! This lowly one knows his mistake, please spare this lowly one's life! "
"Tang Tian, you really have guts, you even dare to lay your hands on my maid!"
The woman in white's expression was incomparably cold, with killing intent. Her long sword floated in the air, intertwining with a terrifying brilliance, ready to fall at any time.
"All of this is wrongly accused, I don't know anything! It was all arranged by Shopkeeper Zhu, he framed me … "
Tang Tian's face was pale, his voice trembling, incomparably angry and uneasy, trying to explain everything clearly.
..... ..... 0
He naturally recognized the woman in white in front of him. She was the Heavenly Lady of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan.
She had a face that could bring calamity to countries and people, and countless geniuses regarded her as a Heavenly Lady.
Furthermore, she held great power in the Business Alliance of Ten Thousand Daos.
How could a profligate son like him easily offend such a person?
The woman in white's expression turned even colder, and she said with a chilling tone, "Then who should I listen to? Or are you all just fooling me? When I wasn't paying attention, you kidnapped my maid. If I didn't leave a mark on her, I'm afraid she would have been killed by you today! "
Her words were not loud, but it spread on the streets.
Many cultivators and living beings heard it and were extremely shocked, they immediately imagined the cause and effect.
After all, Tang Tian's reputation was not good, many people knew him, so it was not strange for him to do such a thing.
However, they did not expect him to be so daring this time, he actually dared to lay his hands on the maid of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan's Heavenly Lady.
"I'm really wrongly accused, Heavenly Lady, your maid is still upstairs. If you don't believe me, you can ask her yourself, and everything will come to light …"
Tang Tian was still desperately trying to explain at this time, and he hurriedly said.
His face was extremely pale, as if he was grasping at a life-saving straw. He felt that the stout man was trying to frame him.
"Alright, I'll give you a chance."
"If you dare to lie to me, even the Tang Family behind you won't be able to protect you." The woman in white's voice was extremely cold.
Soon, she moved and walked into the private room.
Immediately after, a sword ray fell and released the girl of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan who was bound.
"Young Miss, save me!"
"Tang Tian is despicable and shameless, he … he actually sent someone to knock me out. If you didn't come in time, I would have …"
When the girl saw the woman in white arrive, she immediately started to sob and explain. She cried so miserably that those who heard it would be sad and those who saw it would cry.
Many cultivators and living beings were angry at Tang Tian. He was simply scum!
Hearing that, Tang Tian's face immediately lost all color. A cold air swept through his body, and he fell to the ground.
At that moment, there was only one thought in his mind. It's over, I've been tricked!
"Tang Tian, what else do you have to explain now?" The woman in white looked at him coldly and shouted.
…
"There are much fewer Yin-terminated living beings these days. It seems that the group of geniuses from the Immortal Academy is still useful …"
At that moment, Chu Hao's figure appeared on a mountain peak far away from the territory of the Ancient Kingdom of Vermilion Bird.
As his palm landed, the raging gray fog in front of him was instantly obliterated like snow under the scorching sun, dissipating into nothingness.
He was only one step away from entering the Supreme Stage.
There was no need to say more about his strength. It was easy to deal with the Yin-terminated living beings. However, the Yin-terminated Qi was very difficult to deal with. Even he had to spend a lot of energy to destroy it.
Here, he saw many geniuses from the Immortal Academy. They were fighting fiercely with the Yin-terminated living beings.
Chu Hao knew that this was the request of the Immortal Academy, so he didn't pay too much attention to it.
"At this rate, the Yin-terminated disaster should be eliminated this time."
Thinking of that, Chu Hao couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. A rare smile appeared on his face.
In the distance, he saw a group of geniuses shrouded in divine light. Their auras were shocking and majestic.
"Gu Changge's followers that day …"
"It seems that Gu Changge is here too."
Chu Hao frowned and chose to leave in another direction. He didn't want to meet Gu Changge here.
"Chu Hao is indeed here. Master's guess was right."
Among the group of geniuses, a young living being who looked like a yaksha wore a cold smile. The moment he noticed Chu Hao, he immediately informed Gu Changge of everything with a communication jade talisman. Qian.
