The full moon was like a string, wrapped in silver light.
The Purple Mountain stood tall, flowing with a misty purple light.
From time to time, terrifying sounds came from it, like rolling boulders, rumbling.
In the valley, the atmosphere was oppressive. Everyone kept quiet out of fear and lowered their eyes, not daring to say anything.
Even Chen Ning 'er could not help but feel a chill on her back, and her face was slightly pale.
Although Gu Changge was not asking her that just now.
However, that kind of soul-shaking and suffocating feeling was like a nightmare that lingered around everyone.
Finally, Gu Changge retracted his gaze and smiled.
The terrifying feeling that shrouded everyone's heads dissipated slightly.
Everyone felt as if they had been fished out of the water. Their limbs were cold, and their clothes were drenched in cold sweat.
Chen Ning 'er and the others even suspected that if Ji Yaoxing had said something wrong just now, they would have been greeted with a destructive blow.
Even in the rumors, Gu Changge's strength was an existence that could fight with a Quasi-supreme.
If he wanted to kill Ji Yaoxing, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.
"Young Master Changge, don't worry. Although I didn't get the Heavenly Palm Tower today, I've already sent my family over.
"But Yao Xing has already informed the family and will be able to send the Celestial Palm Wheel over soon. It can be considered as a small apology. I hope that Young Master Changge will be magnanimous and forgive me and my sister's mistake today."
Ji Yaoxing heaved a sigh of relief, cupped his hands, and said with a respectful expression.
"Brother Yaoxing, you're so considerate."
"In that case, it would be impolite of me to refuse."
Hearing that, Gu Changge smiled faintly, still looking calm.
How could he not know what everyone was thinking, but he did not care.
Even if Ji Yaoxing did not hand over the Heavenly Palm Tower, he would find an opportunity to force the Ji family to hand it over.
Ji Yaoxing being so reasonable saved him some trouble.
Ji Chuyue looked at Gu Changge in fear and quickly lowered her head. When she first saw Gu Changge, she was only curious.
What kind of existence was this rumored number one person of the younger generation? She could not feel his terrifying power that was enough to make the upper realm tremble.
It was only today that she fully experienced it. Just now, she almost couldn't stand properly.
She suspected that even if their father, the head of the reclusive Ji Family, stood in front of Gu Changge today, his performance would not be any better than theirs.
"Young Lord Changge, how are you going to deal with Jiang Chen?"
Hearing Gu Changge's words, the stone in Ji Yaoxing's heart finally fell, and he seemed much more relaxed.
His calm and reserved face suddenly lit up. He looked at Jiang Chen, who was standing behind him with a pale face and seemed to be in shock.
Jiang Chen still hadn't recovered from the shock.
29
His expression changed when he heard that Ji Yaoxing wanted to deal with him.
He didn't have time to think too much. He quickly asked the spirit of the immortal boat in his mind what he had to do to survive today.
"Your only choice now is to escape into the Purple Mountain behind you. The faster, the better. As long as you get there, I'll be able to use the terrain there to fight against them."
"This is your only way out. I didn't expect that the Ji siblings wouldn't help you. I overestimated their courage and guts, but I also underestimated Gu Changge's power."
The voice of the spirit of the immortal boat was unprecedentedly heavy.
"But how can I escape from them? They'll catch up with me in an instant."
Jiang Chen frowned. He was very nervous.
He had been thinking about escaping, but Ji Yaoxing's subordinates and Chen Ning 'er's subordinates were watching him closely. He did not have the nerve to act rashly.
"I'll take advantage of the situation here to create a chance for you to escape. You should seize the opportunity. Don't miss it," the spirit of the immortal boat said in a low voice.
Jiang Chen nodded. He felt very heavy, too. If he was careless, both his body and soul would be destroyed.
He was very nervous. His palms and back were sweating.
"Jiang Chen? This name sounds familiar to me. "
Ji Yaoxing had said that.
Gu Changge thought for a while. Then he looked like he was thinking. "But I don't think I've seen this face before."
He laid his eyes on Jiang Chen with interest, as if he was going to size him up thoroughly.
"Jiang Chen has the inheritance of a Divine Origin Master. He said he had a grudge against Young Lord Changge. He changed his appearance because he was worried Young Lord Changge would notice him. This isn't his original appearance."
Ji Yaoxing explained in a low voice.
"Oh, a Divine Origin Master? He changed his appearance. "
"Did I remember it wrong? I don't remember having a grudge against any Divine Origin Master."
Gu Changge was still smiling. He didn't seem to care at all.
"Jiang Chen said it himself. He wouldn't dare lie to Young Lord Changge," Ji Yaoxing explained.
At the same time, he looked towards Jiang Chen coldly. "He tried many times to instigate my sister and me to murder Young Lord Changge. He tried to push the Ji family into a deep abyss. He deserves to be killed."
Chen Ning 'er and the others were also surprised. They hadn't expected this youngster with a Divine Origin Master to have the nerve to do that. Murder Gu Changge?
How daring and brave did he have to be?
Gu Changge smiled. He didn't say anything.
He didn't look away, but he seemed to be pondering.
Jiang Chen knew Gu Changge must have known who he was, but he hadn't pointed it out.
At that moment, he said with a cold expression, "Gu Changge, you really have a short memory. I still remember clearly the enmity between me and my companions."
As he spoke, his expression changed.
According to the method Ji Chuyue had taught him, he showed his true face.
In an instant, Jiang Chen turned from a youngster into a young man. His appearance had changed so much that everyone was surprised.
Seeing this, Gu Changge nodded. Then he said with interest, "It's you. But what do you mean by that?"
"I let you go out of kindness, but now you blame me. Aren't you ungrateful? Even an ungrateful person shouldn't be like this. Don't you think so? "
When Jiang Chen heard his casual and indifferent tone, he felt an indescribable anger surging to his head.
However, he forced himself to calm down. He said coldly, "You don't even dare admit what you've done. Gu Changge, can you be more shameless than this? You let us go on the surface, but in fact, you sent people to kill us. "
"Ruoyin is so pure and kind. She trusted you so much that she couldn't see your true face."
As soon as he mentioned Xiao Ruoyin, he felt an indescribable hatred and pain. It spread from the bottom of his heart, as if it was going to tear him apart.
People were confused by the hatred between Jiang Chen and Gu Changge. They didn't know what had happened.
Let them go? Kill them all?
Yue Mingkong was the only one who glanced at Gu Changge. She was pondering.
She was thinking about the woman Jiang Chen had mentioned. Who was she?
It looked like another woman had fallen into Gu Changge's hands without her knowledge.
And that was why Jiang Chen had become enemies with Gu Changge.
Yue Mingkong felt that she had to ask Gu Changge about the woman named Ruoyin when she had the time.
"That's what you're talking about."
"Xiao Ruoyin has a legendary body. She's not in the same world as you. It's not good for you to be entangled with her."
"You still don't understand?"
Gu Changge said casually, as if he had lost interest in Jiang Chen.
"Stop fooling around, Gu Changge. That's just an excuse. Ruoyin is new to this world. She doesn't know anything. That's why she was fooled by you. She couldn't see your true face. "
Jiang Chen was extremely angry. He looked like he was going to skin Gu Changge alive.
"How dare you! Master let you go out of kindness. It's okay if you don't appreciate it, but now you're making false accusations. Master is kind. He doesn't want to lower himself to your level. "
"If you still don't know what's good for you, don't blame us for attacking you."
"If master wants to kill you, there won't be a place for you in the entire Upper Realm. You won't be able to survive."
However, Gu Changge didn't want to talk to Jiang Chen anymore. He looked calm. He didn't even look at Jiang Chen.
It was a follower behind him who had spoken. It had a terrifying appearance like a yaksha. It was full of energy and killing intent.
Its words caused everyone's expression to change slightly. Although it sounded very arrogant and domineering, this was the truth.
That was true. With Gu Changge's power, if he wanted to kill Jiang Chen, how could he, an ordinary person, escape?
Jiang Chen got even angrier. He couldn't help but smile coldly. "If I hadn't been lucky, I would have been killed by those creatures he sent. Of course, I wouldn't have survived until now."
"You're courting death! You're courting death! "
The yaksha-like creature flew into a rage. It was going to attack Jiang Chen.
A dreadful cyan palm print flew across the sky. It was going to fall from the sky, giving off a terrifying rule.
The ground was shaking. The mountains were rumbling. Many energies were intertwined. It was extremely powerful.
Even a genius of the Saint State would have to be cautious, let alone a mortal like Jiang Chen.
"You …"
Jiang Chen's expression suddenly changed. His face turned pale and desperate.
He hadn't expected his rival to be so cruel. He didn't want to give him any chance to escape. He was going to kill him here.
Chen Ning 'er and the others were watching this indifferently. They didn't show any emotion.
Ji Yaoxing also looked the same.
Only Ji Chuyue couldn't bear it. She lowered her head. She couldn't bear to watch this.
At first, she had thought Jiang Chen was fun. That was why she had sent him so many spiritual herbs to practice.
Then she had become curious about the Divine Origin Master techniques he had shown.
However, no one had expected the hatred between Jiang Chen and Gu Changge to be so great.
Besides, the Jis, who had been living in seclusion, were also involved. If they didn't want to follow the Zifu's example, they had to cut ties with Jiang Chen.
The best way was to blame all the troubles on Jiang Chen.
"I'm sorry, Jiang Chen …"
Ji Chuyue's look dimmed. She felt guilty, but she didn't have the nerve to help him.
"Gu Changge, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost …"
Jiang Chen was desperate. He couldn't help but shout at the palm that could crush him into a bloody mist. Boom!
Boom!!
The air was shaking, as if it was going to explode.
"Leave now!"
However, at this critical moment, a black-robed old man suddenly appeared.
A black-robed old man suddenly appeared. His face was cold and gloomy, but there was a terrifying Saint Realm pressure circulating around his body.
He waved his sleeve to ward off the palm that was falling down. At the same time, he grabbed Jiang Chen, who was pale and desperate, and flew into the Purple Mountain at high speed.
For Jiang Chen, the way forward was blocked. The only way back was in the Purple Mountain behind him.
"Senior black-robed …"
Jiang Chen opened his eyes wide. He hadn't expected the black-robed senior to show up again to save him at his most desperate moment.
At this moment, he was extremely excited and touched.
"You're so stupid. The Jis' siblings can't be trusted. You were so stupid to lead the way for them. Now you regret it?"
The black-robed old man spoke as if he had expected better from Jiang Chen. He wished he could slap Jiang Chen to death.
Even so, his movements were still very fast.
He grabbed Jiang Chen and fled into the Purple Mountain. He turned into a black light and disappeared in a second.
"Who is this guy?"
"If I'm not mistaken, he should be a Great Saint, right?"
This sudden scene shocked everyone.
No one had expected Jiang Chen to have such a strong man behind him. He had saved Jiang Chen at such a critical moment.
And this black-robed old man was really bold. He had saved Jiang Chen from Gu Changge so openly.
This action was tantamount to making Gu Changge angry.
They didn't know who this black-robed old man was, but even though he was a Great Saint, he would probably die after offending Gu Changge.
As had been said before, there would be no place for him in the Upper Realm.
"Jiang Chen unexpectedly has a Great Saint Realm expert behind him. It's no wonder that he was so confident and spoke to us in such a manner."
"But why did he join the School of the Divine Ruins? Did he know where the Heavenly Palm Tower was, so he came here on purpose. What he said and did was just a cover up. "
Ji Yaoxing frowned. All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind. Glancing at Gu Changge, who looked a bit sullen, he didn't have the nerve to ask.
"Master, please forgive me …"
The yaksha-like creature was going to kneel down and beg for forgiveness. After all, it was his carelessness that allowed the black-robed old man to show up suddenly and save Jiang Chen.
Gu Changge waved his hand. He looked normal again. He said, "It's none of your business. Looks like Jiang Chen is confident. That's why he has the nerve to talk like that."
"A Great Saint is behind him. Looks like he's had a lot of opportunities recently."
Yue Mingkong glanced at him. She had a feeling Gu Changge was implying something.
When the black-robed old man appeared just now, his expression was calm and did not change in the slightest. It was obvious that he had long expected this scene.
So, she couldn't help but wonder. If Jiang Chen was Gu Changge's pawn, what about the black-robed old man?
She felt a chill run down her spine at the thought of this.
As expected, once one was targeted by Gu Changge, it would be his worst nightmare. It would be impossible to get rid of him for the rest of one's life.
"Jiang Chen has a Great Saint behind him …" Ji Yuyue couldn't believe it.
Ji Chuyue only reacted after a long while. For some reason, she felt a chill run down her spine.
What was Jiang Chen's purpose for joining the School of the Divine Ruins? Judging from what he had done, the black-robed old man was probably his protector.
"The Purple Mountain is extremely dangerous. Even if Jiang Chen goes there, he'll definitely die. Besides, I don't think there's a way out behind the Purple Mountain. The only way out is with us."
"Even if he's lucky enough to escape, he'll have to leave here in the end."
At this moment, Chen Ning 'er couldn't help but say. She was sure Jiang Chen wouldn't be able to escape.
All they had to do was wait at the entrance of the Purple Mountain and wait for Jiang Chen to walk into the trap.
However, Ji Yaoxing shook his head. He said in a deep voice, "The Purple Mountain is steep. It's a space of its own. Although it's dangerous, Jiang Chen is a Divine Origin Master. He has many mysterious methods. Maybe he can find a way out there."
"When I explored the Purple Mountain, I found many ancient creatures were suppressed there. The closer you were to the Purple Mountain, the stronger those creatures were. Some of them were even stronger than the Saint State."
He didn't think Jiang Chen would die there. If it hadn't been for Jiang Chen, they probably wouldn't have found the Sky-Palm Tower.
So, he guessed Jiang Chen must have had the nerve to escape into the Purple Mountain because he was confident about something.
"Since the Sky-Palm Tower is in the Purple Mountain, I'll find it even if I have to dig three feet into the ground. Jiang Chen isn't a threat at all. "
Gu Changge smiled. He didn't think it was a big deal.
Then his followers turned into holy rainbows and soared into the sky. They dashed into the Purple Mountain. They didn't want to waste any more time there.
Gu Changge and Yue Mingkong didn't plan to enter the Purple Mountain.
"So, Ning 'er will send her subordinates to explore the Purple Mountain. She'll help Young Lord Changge catch Jiang Chen by the way."
Seeing this, Chen Ning 'er turned serious. She hurried to say. Then she started to give orders to her subordinates.
Ji Yaoxing and Ji Chuyue glanced at each other. They didn't dare waste any more time. They started to give orders to their subordinates. They were going to enter the Purple Mountain to look for the Sky-Palm Tower and catch Jiang Chen.
Suddenly, the Purple Mountain was full of brilliant lights. Although they knew the Purple Mountain was full of dangers, they didn't dare disobey Gu Changge. They hurried to enter the Purple Mountain. They didn't dare waste any time.
Was it important to be a tool at this moment?
Soon, only Gu Changge and Yue Mingkong were left there. Even the Ji siblings had chosen not to stay outside.
"How sure are you that Jiang Chen can find the Sky-Palm Tower?"
Yue Mingkong was curious. She laid her eyes on Gu Changge.
She didn't ask Gu Changge what his plan was. She only wanted to know why he was so sure that Jiang Chen could find the Sky-Palm Tower.
"One hundred percent."
Gu Changge said with a faint smile. He looked like he could see through the whole Purple Mountain and see what was inside.
He wasn't confident in Jiang Chen. He was confident in Jiang Chen's luck. Otherwise, how could he be called the Son of Luck?
Besides, Jiang Chen had another holy object, the Fairy Boat of Good Fortune.
With the help of the Fairy Boat of Good Fortune, wouldn't it be easy for Jiang Chen to get the Sky-Palm Tower?
The Ji siblings and Chen Ning 'er were only there to serve as a foil for Jiang Chen.
"Unknowingly, you've already schemed to such a deep level."
"Everyone has become a tool in your hands."
Yue Mingkong glanced at him. She looked very calm. She didn't think he could be described as a monster.
"It's not really a plan. It just went well. Besides the Sky-Palm Tower, I've got the Sky-Palm Wheel. It's a pleasant surprise."
"Now I'm just waiting for Jiang Chen to find the Sky-Palm Tower for me."
Gu Changge smiled noncommittally.
