The Mountain Lord suddenly thought of many things. Currently, the Eight Wildernesses and Ten Regions were like a pile of loose sand. It was difficult to gather them, let alone fight against Gu Changge and the Upper Realm.
No matter what Gu Changge's true motive was, he could make use of it to win people over.
Only then would he have more power. Otherwise, the rescue mission for Luo Feng would be a long way off.
"If that's the case, I'll beat him at his own game. What's wrong with attending the banquet?"
Thinking of this, the Mountain Lord had a plan in mind.
Now that the important figures of various races were gathered in Heaven Gate City, it was a good opportunity for him to show himself.
"Mountain Lord, are you going to attend the banquet that Gu Changge invited?"
Xiao Yang did not know what the Mountain Lord was thinking.
He was still a little worried. After all, Gu Changge would not call the Mountain Lord out for no reason.
Anyone with a discerning eye would know that something was wrong.
This matter did not have much to do with the Mountain Lord, so he could leave at any time.
Even the Second Mountain Lord and the Mountain Lord did not have much of a relationship. This was what his master had told him a long time ago.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
The Mountain Lord did not say much, nor did he explain anything. He then walked out of the corner and walked towards the important figures who were talking not far away.
Seeing this, Xiao Yang was delighted. He understood what the Mountain Lord's choice was.
He could not help but feel a wave of admiration in his heart.
Even though he knew that Gu Changge was up to no good and might have set up a trap during the banquet, the Mountain Lord did not care.
He knew that there was a tiger in the mountain, but he still walked towards it.
"You … you are …"
The important figures who were discussing the Heavenly Deer City appointment in half a month could not hide their worry. They could not think of a solution.
At this moment, they suddenly saw the Mountain Lord walking towards them. They could not help but be shocked. They did not sense that there was someone hiding in the area.
There were Supreme Martial Artists among them. Their cultivation was unfathomable.
However, they still could not sense anyone around them.
This shocked them. They then became alert and stared at the Mountain Lord who was walking towards them.
"Blind Old Man, could it be …"
"Could it really be …"
Someone noticed the Mountain Master's face and frowned, as if recalling something.
There weren't many people in this world who were blind and had such an unfathomable cultivation.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind. He suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but turn pale with fright. He couldn't hide his shock and his voice trembled.
"You … you are …"
The Mountain Lord's expression was calm as he nodded slightly without saying anything.
At this time, the other big shots also suddenly remembered, and their faces immediately flushed red.
They were very excited. At their level, they couldn't help but tremble.
One could imagine how excited they were at this moment.
"That's great. I always thought that the news was fake. No wonder Gu Changge would spread such words."
"So you've really been born!"
They immediately used honorifics to address the Mountain Lord, feeling deep veneration for him. After all, he was the one who had founded the Nine Mountains.
His transcendent status in the current Eight Desolates and Ten Regions was simply indescribable.
In their eyes, the Mountain Lord was no different from an Immortal.
"I already know about what happened in the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions. This time, since Gu Changge is up to no good and has set up a banquet, then I will go and take a look."
The Mountain Lord was wearing a white robe and had the demeanor of a transcendent being. Although he was blind, his aura was not to be underestimated.
He spoke calmly, as if he didn't care about Gu Changge at all.
Hearing this, everyone immediately became even more excited. Their emotions surged, their blood surged, and it was difficult for them to calm down.
Now that the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions were in a dark period, if someone like the Mountain Lord stood up, to them, he would be like a pillar of support.
"We are willing to go with the Mountain Lord!"
At this moment, they no longer hesitated and couldn't help but speak in unison. Their expressions were extremely serious.
This was because if even the Mountain Lord couldn't do anything, then the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions were truly hopeless.
"Very good. If that's the case, then in half a month, even if the Sky Deer City is a tiger's den, we will go and take a look."
"Let's see what Gu Changge has up his sleeve."
The Mountain Lord was very satisfied with everyone's expressions and couldn't help but nod.
During this time, he contacted the other clans and gathered the remaining three Divine Warriors clans, the Vermillion Bird, the White Tiger, and the Xuanwu Clans, to gather their last bit of strength.
This way, even if Gu Changge was scheming against him, he was confident that he could escape unscathed.
Very quickly, the news of the Mountain Lord of the Nine Mountains appearing in the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions spread from the Juque City faster than if it had wings.
This caused a huge commotion, and the waves it caused were unimaginable.
All of the clans and Ten Regions appeared to discuss this matter.
Half a month later, within the Sky Deer City, Gu Changge invited the leaders of the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions to participate in the peace treaty.
To them, there was definitely something fishy about this matter and they didn't believe it. They were discussing whether or not to go.
However, now that the Mountain Lord had appeared, he took the initiative to accept the invitation.
This made them excited, and they didn't hesitate for long before saying that they were willing to die with the Mountain Lord.
If what Gu Changge said was true, it would naturally be good, and the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions would regain their rare peace.
If what he said was false, with the Mountain Lord around, they would have an extra layer of protection.
After all, in the eyes of countless beings in the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions, the Mountain Lord was no different from an immortal.
Although he hadn't appeared for countless years, now that the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions were facing a great calamity and were about to fall, the Mountain Lord appeared to try his best to turn the tide.
In the eyes of many cultivators, he was the last hope left.
The Ten Great Domains and the Eight Great Wastelands that had yet to fall had become uplifted in the past few days. Even the armies of the Upper World had stopped their attacks. It seemed that they had compromised because of Gu Changge's decree.
At the same time, in the Sky Deer City, many Patriarchs of the Supreme Sects and Imperishable Orthodoxies from the Upper World gathered, looking slightly dissatisfied.
Of course, they knew that Gu Changge had issued a decree to invite the various clans of the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions.
They had no objections to this, after all, it was Gu Changge's business. However, he asked for the various orthodoxies to cooperate with him and temporarily withdraw their troops.
This made them a little dissatisfied. Now was the critical time to conquer the various regions, how could they withdraw their troops so easily?
They were still waiting to completely conquer the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions, and then find out why there were no immortals in the Upper World all these years.
That was the most important thing.
If it weren't for the fact that Gu Changge's power was not weaker than theirs, and that he had played a decisive role in this battle, they wouldn't have agreed.
Now, they wouldn't be so kind.
In the palace, there was a faint fragrance of tea and immortal fog.
Gu Changge sipped his tea gently and said slowly, "In half a month, the various clans of the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions will be here. Isn't it good to catch them all then?"
"Everyone, why are you so dissatisfied over such a small matter?"
Behind him stood several people, including those who had achieved Dao from the Longevity Gu Clan, Empyrean Deer Mystic Fairy, Ni Shang, and Ancestor Bone.
However, Ni Shang and Ancestor Bone didn't show their faces, but their aura alone was enough to make the various orthodoxies' expressions change. They didn't dare to say anything disrespectful.
If it weren't for the severity of the situation, they wouldn't have come here together at this time.
"Young Lord Changge is right, but how can you guarantee that all the leaders of the clans of the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions will be here in half a month?"
An ancestor from the Sky Emperor Mountain spoke. He looked a little like a dragon, but he had a phoenix plume on his forehead. His strength was considered to be on the stronger side of the Dao Attainment Realm.
His words were clearly approved by the rest of the people.
Gu Changge's plan was simple, but the various clans of the Eight Desolates and Ten Regions were not stupid. Why would they come knowing that this was a trap?
To them, the success rate of this plan was not high.
"No, they will all come."
Gu Changge's expression didn't change. He didn't explain. He only said calmly, "Besides, do you really think you can find the thing you're looking for if you keep looking like this?"
"In my opinion, this is just a waste of time."
"Young Lord Changge, do you know something?"
The ancestor of the Longevity Wang Clan couldn't help but ask curiously.
He felt that Gu Changge wouldn't say these words for no reason. Obviously, he knew something.
The other ancestors of the imperishable sects and Supreme Daoist orthodoxies were also puzzled.
"It's not that I know anything, but the Second Mountain Lord of the Nine Mountains and the Guardians are in my hands. They will definitely come to rescue them."
Gu Changge smiled. He glanced outside the hall and gave an order to the people behind him.
Soon, rumbling sounds were heard. Prison wagons covered in various supreme talismans were pushed over. They were glittering with light, and rules were falling from them.
The Second Mountain Lord, Luo Feng, and Luo Ying were imprisoned in the wagons.
The Second Mountain Lord was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed like a rock. He was oblivious to the situation outside.
Luo Feng and Luo Ying didn't look good. Their hands and feet were shackled, and it was difficult for them to break free.
If they exerted a little strength, fine talisman power would seep into them, causing them unbearable pain. It was like torture.
"They are …?"
Seeing this, many ancestors of the imperishable sects and Supreme Daoist orthodoxies looked surprised.
Some of them had interacted with the Second Mountain Lord before. They didn't expect that after the Nine Mountains were destroyed, the Second Mountain Lord would be suppressed by Gu Changge and become a prisoner.
However, they didn't know Luo Feng and Luo Ying, nor did they know them.
However, judging from Gu Changge's words, one of them must be a descendant of the Guardians.
"They are naturally my honored guests."
Gu Changge smiled faintly. Then, in front of everyone, she unlocked the shackles of the three people in the prison carriage and released them.
However, their cultivations were sealed. Even if they were released, they wouldn't be able to escape in front of a group of Enlightened Beings.
"It seems that Young Lord Changge has everything under control. We were overthinking."
Seeing this, many Enlightened Beings were not stupid. They understood Gu Changge's intention and couldn't help but sigh. They were even more afraid of Gu Changge's methods.
"Gu, what tricks are you up to this time?"
As the former Wind Ancestor, Luo Feng was still proud even though he was now a prisoner.
He knew that Gu Changge didn't kill him because he wanted to know his secret.
Therefore, before this, he was safe and his life was not in danger.
Beside him, Luo Ying found it hard to hide her fear towards Gu Changge. Though she carried a deep hatred, she was still a young woman.
Everyone here, other than Gu Changge, was an old monster who had lived for countless years.
"Don't worry. You will see your old friends very soon."
Gu Changge gently blew at the mist on the tea. With a slight smile on her face, she spoke unhurriedly.
"Old friend, what do you mean?"
Luo Feng's heart froze. Other than those of the same generation, he didn't know of any other old friends.
He had a bad feeling.
"Your little brother will see you very soon as well." Gu Changge didn't explain and looked at Luo Ying.
"Little brother …" Luo Ying's face was white as her body trembled in fear.
It could be said that the person she didn't want to see the most right now was the little brother she had never seen before.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. Rays of light flashed across the sky, splitting open the sky and shaking the earth. They all headed towards the Sky Deer City from all over the Eight Barren Domains.
