It was dim in the dungeon. The air was damp.
There was a smell of blood and decay in the air. People couldn't help but think of corpses.
Desperation and fear filled the air. Everyone's souls were trembling. They couldn't help but shiver.
When Gu Changge and Black Jade walked in, everyone, including Jiang Chen and Niu Tian, was only uneasy and frightened at the beginning.
However, they gradually calmed down. They were ready to see how things would develop.
They had all guessed the white-clothed man in front of them was extraordinary, much more dreadful than the queen-like woman in the black dress.
But they still felt he shouldn't be a bad guy. After all, he had an extraordinary immortal aura. He seemed to be out of this world.
His entire body seemed to be glowing. Strands of divine multicolored light glowed brilliantly in his hair. He was divine like jade, untainted by a speck of dust, and nothing more than that.
It was hard for people to have a bad impression of him just because of the first impression.
Then, when Gu Changge asked them questions, everyone was surprised. They didn't understand what he was talking about.
Jiang Chen was the only one who suddenly felt uneasy.
Especially when the man in white did not ask all of them but asked Xiao Ruoyin, he felt that something was amiss.
He didn't think the white-clothed man would have any bad intentions toward Xiao Ruoyin.
After all, judging from the other party's behavior, the way he looked at them from the beginning to the end was as if he was looking at ants from the clouds.
He looked casual and careless.
Xiao Ruoyin was pretty, but the woman in the black dress was as pretty as her.
Jiang Chen felt something was wrong with Xiao Ruoyin. Judging from what she had said and her expression.
She seemed to have known about time travel a long time ago. That was why she had accepted it so quickly.
But at that moment, judging from Xiao Ruoyin's slightly pale expression, Jiang Chen's heart sank. He didn't feel good.
Xiao Ruoyin seemed to understand what the white-clothed man was saying.
And the white-clothed man in front of them seemed to have detected it as soon as he walked in.
This was Jiang Chen's first thought.
As expected, when Jiang Chen heard Xiao Ruoyin say those weird words, he was shocked, but at the same time, he understood what had happened.
Xiao Ruoyin seemed to have some understanding of this bizarre world, but she had never revealed anything to him.
Jiang Chen felt bitter for no reason.
"Beauty Xiao can understand the other party?"
"Before this, she had never told us anything. What else is she hiding? She was the one who invited us here, but she kept so many things from us … "
Except for Jiang Chen, the others were also looking towards Xiao Ruoyin in shock. Their eyes were wide open. They couldn't believe it.
Even if they were beaten to death, they wouldn't believe that she had learned it in the past few days.
Who was so talented in languages to be able to master such a complicated language in just a few days?
That could only mean that Beauty Xiao actually understood the language of this world before this.
They were extremely shocked. Their expressions became complicated and resentful. They suddenly felt that the goddess, who they could only watch from afar, had become even stranger.
Many of their companions had died here. Why hadn't Xiao Ruoyin told them about this before this?
"Chen, you …" Niu Tian also said in a low voice.
Niu Tian also said in a low voice. He looked at Jiang Chen worriedly. He knew the relationship between Jiang Chen and Beauty Xiao.
"I'm fine."
Jiang Chen waved his hand. Although he couldn't hide the shock on his face, he calmed down soon. However, the uneasiness in his heart was getting stronger and stronger.
He looked towards Xiao Ruoyin. He wanted to ask her what the white-clothed man was talking about.
But Xiao Ruoyin didn't seem to notice him. She was still lowering her head, her hands clasped together.
The white-clothed man in front of her was still as calm as ever. He looked indifferent, as if everything in this world was nothing more than smoke and dust in his eyes.
Jiang Chen didn't understand what Xiao Ruoyin and Gu Changge were talking about, either, but judging from Xiao Ruoyin's expression, she was obviously scared and uneasy.
She had suddenly arrived in such a mysterious and bizarre world.
Even if he were a man, he would feel scared and uneasy, not to mention that Xiao Ruoyin was only a woman.
It was just that he didn't show it on his face. This feeling of helplessness made him clench his fists involuntarily.
"It's good that you can understand what I'm saying."
At this moment, while Jiang Chen and the others were worried and lost in their thoughts.
Gu Changge spoke again. Seeing Xiao Ruoyin admit it, he couldn't help but show a faint smile. He looked very gentle and elegant.
He didn't look as indifferent as before. He even looked like a spring breeze.
Xiao Ruoyin calmed down a little, maybe because she had sensed his change. She looked up at him, but she was still vigilant and uneasy.
She didn't know how Gu Changge had found out she could understand their language.
In Xiao Ruoyin's original plan, she would first learn some information about this world, and then find a way to escape.
In fact, this was the only thing she was going to tell Jiang Chen, but she was interrupted by Gu Changge's arrival.
She felt an indescribable fear from Gu Changge.
This man was clearly as otherworldly as an immortal, but why did she feel fear from the bottom of her heart?
"Come with me. I have something to ask you."
Gu Changge said again, looking towards Xiao Ruoyin with a faint smile. His tone was simple. He didn't pay any attention to Jiang Chen and the others.
Hearing this, Xiao Ruoyin was stunned. Her beautiful and moving pair of light crimson eyes looked at him uneasily.
In the end, she gnashed her teeth. She didn't dare refuse him. She stood up and lowered her head. She looked lonely and desperate.
In her opinion, if Gu Changge had something to ask her, it couldn't be anything good.
Before this, many of their companions had lost their lives because they had been taken away.
She hadn't expected such a result before exploring the relics. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been in such a hurry.
Xiao Ruoyin couldn't help but feel desperate. Before this, no matter how calm she had been, she was only a weak woman after all.
Even the spiritual gun she used for self-defense had been taken away by him.
"Ruoyin, what did he say to you?"
Seeing Gu Changge leaving with Xiao Ruoyin, Jiang Chen, Niu Tian, and the others were all shocked. They couldn't help but ask worriedly.
"Ruoyin, what's going on?"
Jiang Chen turned pale. He clenched his fists. He had a feeling Xiao Ruoyin knew what was going to happen next.
But he couldn't understand what she had said. He felt like a cat was scratching his heart.
"Jiang Chen …"
Xiao Ruoyin looked back at him. She looked miserable and desperate.
Looking at her helpless and desperate expression, Jiang Chen felt as if a bomb had exploded in his head. Anger and reluctance rushed to his head. His eyes turned red. He couldn't help but stand up abruptly. He stared at Gu Changge with hatred and anger.
"Come at me. Let Ruoyin go."
He couldn't help but shout in anger. He chose to stand up for Xiao Ruoyin when everyone else was cowering in fear.
"Chen, calm down. Don't act on impulse!"
Niu Tian turned pale with fright. He hurried to stop Jiang Chen.
Wasn't it courting death to offend the white-clothed man at such a critical moment?
Didn't he know the gap between them? The white-clothed man could scare him out of his wits with just a breath.
Besides, Xiao Ruoyin could understand what he had said, but they couldn't. Who knew what the white-clothed man had said to Xiao Ruoyin?
"Jiang Chen."
Xiao Ruoyin glanced at Jiang Chen, feeling touched.
But then something occurred to her. She gnashed her teeth and looked determined. She said to him, "Don't worry about me, but you have to survive."
"Ruoyin!"
Jiang Chen's eyes turned even redder. He was extremely angry. He sensed Xiao Ruoyin's desperation. He felt like he was about to part with her forever.
However, other than sighing at this time, the rest of the people were indifferent.
They couldn't even protect themselves. Who would have time to care about the others?
In their eyes, Jiang Chen was too impulsive.
As expected, under everyone's shocked and even frightened gazes, Jiang Chen said,
"Eh?"
Gu Changge frowned slightly. He looked a little unhappy.
Instantly, everyone felt like they were being suffocated by a dreadful sense of suffocation. They felt like the sky was falling and the earth was sinking. Even the air around them seemed to be filled with lead water. They felt like their skin was going to explode.
Everyone felt like their throats were being strangled.
"Wow …"
Jiang Chen was the first to bear the brunt of it. He turned pale immediately. He felt like he was drowning. He was almost suffocating.
Then, under such dreadful pressure, he couldn't take it anymore. His legs gave out. He knelt down with a plop.
He was soaked with sweat. He couldn't even move an inch.
His skin, bones, flesh, and lungs felt like they had been crushed by a great force. They made cracking sounds. Blood was oozing out of them.
Everything before his eyes turned red. He couldn't even keep his eyelids open.
Everyone looked at this scene in horror. They were terrified to the extreme.
"Jiang Chen."
Xiao Ruoyin turned pale. She couldn't help but shout in surprise. She was very worried, but under the pressure of Gu Changge, she didn't have the nerve to move.
"I don't have much patience." Gu Changge continued to speak casually.
"Ah Chen …"
Niu Tian looked at Gu Changge in terror. He didn't have the nerve to move either.
He felt like he was being stared at by a dreadful fierce beast. His soul was shivering. He was going to kneel down like Jiang Chen.
However, Gu Changge didn't make things difficult for them. He still looked calm. He turned around and walked out of the dungeon.
Xiao Ruoyin turned pale. She looked back at Jiang Chen worriedly. She didn't have the nerve to stop. She hurried to follow him.
She didn't know how this trip would end. Would it bode ill for her or not? She felt desperate and uneasy at the moment.
"Ruoyin …"
Jiang Chen said unwillingly. He extended his hand, trying to catch something, but he was powerless.
Then, everything went black. His eyelids closed, and he fainted.
He heard Niu Tian and the others exclaim.
"Master, are we still keeping these people?"
Black Jade followed him and closed the dungeon. She glanced at Jiang Chen and the others and couldn't help but ask.
In her opinion, this group of mysterious people was no different from ants in front of Gu Changge.
If it weren't for their mysterious backgrounds, she wouldn't have taken a second look at them.
"That won't be necessary. Just keep them for now."
Gu Changge said casually. He was interested in them.
So, he didn't kill them. Otherwise, Jiang Chen would have exploded. His body and soul would have been destroyed.
In addition, he found there was a vague fluctuation of luck in Jiang Chen, but it hadn't come out yet.
If he wasn't wrong, Jiang Chen should be the Son of Luck, the kind that hadn't woken up yet.
The system didn't mention it. It seemed it would take some time.
However, compared to Xiao Ruoyin, Jiang Chen was still much weaker. But he would keep him as a leek for the time being. He might be useful in the future.
Gu Changge didn't find any template of the Son of Luck on Jiang Chen, Xiao Ruoyin, and the others.
However, Xiao Ruoyin's luck points seemed to be too high. Even if she wasn't the Son of Luck, she was still a person with great luck.
At first, Gu Changge thought the template would be something like the Celestial Emperor Ye's Coffin Pulled by Nine Dragons, but after seeing it, he found he was overthinking.
Besides, Jiang Chen and the others weren't from Earth. Gu Changge was sure about this, but he was a little disappointed.
Xiao Ruoyin, following the two in silence, couldn't help but tremble when she heard their conversation. She was a little scared.
However, when she heard Gu Changge say he would keep Jiang Chen and the others for the time being, she felt relieved.
Most of her uneasiness and fear disappeared. Xiao Ruoyin felt Gu Changge didn't seem to have any bad intentions toward her. He was just curious.
After leaving the dungeon, Xiao Ruoyin felt a little relieved to see the sunshine and fresh air. She followed Gu Changge silently.
She could see this world was magnificent and grand.
All kinds of things she had never dared to imagine before appeared in front of her eyes.
The odd-looking races, the sacred mountains shining with divine light, the silver waterfall hanging upside down in the sky, the extraordinary immortals …
This scene caused Xiao Ruoyin to involuntarily take a deep breath. For some unknown reason, her state of mind gradually calmed down. It was as if she belonged here.
This feeling was very strange, and it came without rhyme or reason.
This world seemed to be more suitable for her.
Soon, they arrived at a magnificent palace. Gu Changge sat down casually. He looked peaceful. He didn't look like an immortal anymore. He looked more like a mortal.
Hei Yan Yu served him a cup of tea and stood by his side obediently.
If Xiao Ruoyin hadn't seen how fierce she was, she might have thought this black-dressed woman was so obedient.
Of course, she also understood that the reason why the woman in the black dress was like this was all because of the extraordinary man in front of her.
"What's your name?"
Gu Changge asked her casually. Lowering his eyes, he blew at the mist on the tea.
Xiao Ruoyin stood where she was. She didn't dare lie. She answered, "Xiao Ruoyin. Xiao as in bleak and Yin as in music."
This was how she had always introduced herself. Before this, there had always been people who had mistaken her surname for another Xiao.
"Oh, Xiao Ruoyin? That's a nice name. "
Gu Changge nodded. Then, he said, "I want to know about the world you're in."
If these people's souls were stronger, he could have searched their souls directly. There was no need to go through the trouble of asking directly.
After all, they were people of the modern society. The whole civilization was leaning toward technology. This caused the strength of their souls to be many times weaker than the mortals in the Upper Realm.
When she heard Gu Changge's question, Xiao Ruoyin's eyes narrowed. She didn't expect Gu Changge to ask such a question.
He didn't ask how they got here, nor did he ask her how she learned the language of this world.
This caught her off guard.
It was obvious that Gu Changge knew a lot about their origins. He didn't seem surprised.
When she thought of this, Xiao Ruoyin's expression returned to normal.
She knew that Gu Changge had the means to know whether she was lying or not. She didn't dare to lie, so she began to tell the truth.
"We used to live on a blue planet called the Sky Blue Planet. It's very different from here. The lifespan of the people there is very short. Without this kind of Qi Refinement technique, even if we use all kinds of technology and medical methods, it's very rare for them to live past a hundred years …"
Asking for fresh flowers …
She didn't know if Gu Changge could understand these words.
However, Gu Changge didn't interrupt her.
While drinking tea, he stared at her with interest. He seemed to be engrossed in listening and was very curious about that world.
Seeing this, Xiao Ruoyin breathed a sigh of relief again. She was much more relaxed. She was no longer as worried as before.
"Master, this is the weapon we found on her. I tried it. It's not very powerful. It can't even break through the skin of ordinary beasts. However, it can penetrate those ordinary beasts."
At this time, Black Jade seemed to think of something. She took out something from the Sumeru Ring and handed it to Gu Changge.
The shape looked almost the same as the pistol that Gu Changge was familiar with.
However, he felt that there was a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy in it. It seemed to be different from ordinary guns.
"This is a psionic pistol. In our world, it's very rare. It needs a special kind of bullet …"
Seeing this, Xiao Ruoyin didn't know if Gu Changge could understand, so she explained.
If it wasn't for her special identity and her family's strength in her original world, she wouldn't have this kind of psionic pistol.
"Interesting."
Gu Changge smiled, looked at the pistol a few times, and then returned it to her.
From Xiao Ruoyin's introduction, he almost figured out what kind of civilization the world behind her was.
It looked similar to the earth, but there seemed to be some stones that contained special energy. Xiao Ruoyin called them Spirit Stones.
This time, the reason why they had transmigrated to this world was because she had accidentally touched the Spirit Stone beside the altar.
"There's spiritual energy, it seems to be from the cultivation side to the science side. I just don't know if there will be a spiritual energy recovery …"
Gu Changge smiled casually, but his words made Xiao Ruoyin's pupils shrink again, and her expression changed slightly.
She could naturally understand the meaning of Gu Changge's words.
It's just that she didn't understand why Gu Changge knew this.
"In fact, before this, I have met people with the same origin as you. They also came from a lower realm."
Gu Changge said calmly. As for the origin of that group of people, he didn't say much.
Xiao Ruoyin was stunned when she heard this, but she didn't doubt Gu Changge's words.
She just didn't expect that in addition to them, there were people with the same origin in this world.
No wonder Gu Changge didn't seem to be surprised about their origin, but wanted to know something about the world behind her.
..... 0 .....
"Your world seems to be quite interesting. If there's a chance, I'd like to go and have a look."
Then, Gu Changge seemed to have thought of something and sighed slightly.
Xiao Ruoyin looked at him blankly. She didn't expect him to say this.
Suddenly, she felt that this ethereal man in front of her seemed to have a more worldly aura, and was no longer as aloof as before.
The fear she had for Gu Changge also dissipated a lot.
He didn't seem to have any ill intentions, and seemed to be purely curious about the world behind them.
"With … Young Master's identity, why would you care about these mortal things?"
After thinking about it, Xiao Ruoyin didn't know how to address Gu Changge, so she could only call him Young Master.
She didn't know where she got the courage to speak to him like this.
"You don't understand."
Hearing this, Gu Changge looked at her and seemed to smile. Then, he sighed slightly, as if he had a myriad of emotions in his heart.
Xiao Ruoyin stared at this handsome face that was enough to make countless women go crazy in her previous world, and stood there in a daze.
From his sigh, she could hear all kinds of emotions, and it made her feel as if she had seen a different kind of Immortal.
Could it be that this Immortal, who had transcended the mortal world in her eyes, also had worries?
"If there's a chance in the future, Ruoyin hopes to bring Young Master to see that world. It's actually not as interesting as you think it is …"
Xiao Ruoyin lightly pinched the corner of her clothes, her voice calm.
She didn't know how she mustered up the courage to say this.
With her current status, it was obviously disgraceful for her to say such words to Gu Changge.
After saying this, she felt a little uneasy, but she still forced herself to remain calm.
"Interesting, this is the first time someone has dared to speak to me like this, and it's a mortal."
Gu Changge didn't seem to get angry. Instead, he smiled casually, looking very approachable.
Hearing him say this, Xiao Ruoyin was stunned once again. Then, her delicate snow-white face turned a little red as she suddenly thought of something.
However, Gu Changge didn't blame her, and she finally believed it.
Gu Changge didn't mean any harm to her, Jiang Chen, Niu Tian, and the others behind her.
Then, Xiao Ruoyin took a deep breath and said again,
"In fact, when I was in that world, I had some weird dreams since I was little. I dreamt that I was a flying immortal, and that I was omnipotent. Sometimes I even dreamt of some scenes in the future.
"I was very worried at that time. I thought I had some kind of disease. Then, I happened to find an ancient book that no one could understand, and I knew all the words in it. Later, I studied archeology, trying to find the world in my dreams …"
That was why she could understand the language of this world.
She had never said this to anyone else, not even to Jiang Chen, whom she had a good relationship with in college.
Xiao Ruoyin didn't know why she had said this to Gu Changge, a man she had just met for the first time.
"Oh? Such a miraculous thing, it seems that you may have the wisdom of your previous life. "Hearing this, Gu Changge looked at her with interest.
"Wisdom of my previous life?" Xiao Ruoyin didn't understand. She suddenly felt excited. Her heart was beating very fast. "Was my previous life actually from this world?"
He seemed to have noticed the longing and fascination in her eyes.
Gu Changge smiled and said, "Otherwise, how do you explain your fate with this world?"
"I'm fated with this world?"
Xiao Ruoyin was struck dumb. A strange feeling was spreading in her heart.
"Yan Yu, take Miss Xiao to have a bath. It's not easy to be locked up for so many days …"
While Xiao Ruoyin was lost in thought, Gu Changge spoke again. But this time, his smile was a little weird.
Xiao Ruoyin suddenly realized she had been locked up for so many days that the smell of rot on her body seemed to have gotten stronger.
In her previous world, she had always been a cold and unsmiling ice goddess in front of others. She could only be seen from afar and never touched.
There had never been a day like today where he was in such a predicament.
Did Gu Changge think she smelled too much in front of him? Had he been holding back before this?
At the thought of this, Xiao Ruoyin suddenly felt embarrassed. She blushed slightly.
She also had a better impression of Gu Changge than before. After all, with such a status, he was able to hold back and chat with her for so long. How many people could be compared to such a gentleman?
Hearing the order, Black Yan Yu responded and then left with Xiao Ruoyin. Only Gu Changge was left in the palace.
He drank the tea in the white jade teacup unhurriedly. His smile was a little thought-provoking.
"Fateless Body. This is really interesting."
"So it's the reincarnation of the Priest of Destiny of the Immortal Palace? The so-called Fateless Body controls all time and space, all karma, all inconceivable, unimaginable, unspeakable … "
