In the palace, the Little War Immortal turned blue and then turned pale.
He was so angry that his eyes looked like they were going to shoot fire. Clenching his fists, he took a deep breath after a good while.
"What should we do? Don't we have a choice to refuse? "
Gazing at the invitation in front of her, An Xi asked with a sullen expression.
Of course, she didn't want to get involved in this trip to Mount Kun.
No one knew what they would run into there.
Besides, the Sects didn't have anything to do with the Jis. Even if they wanted to save Ji Shengchu, it had nothing to do with them.
Why should she get involved in this at such a critical moment?
"We can only take one step at a time. If we refuse, Gu Changge will have an excuse to attack us."
"We can't let him succeed."
The Little War Immortal said in a deep voice, glancing at An Xi, Jiang Chen, Niu Tian, and the others.
His words silenced Jiang Chen and Niu Tian. As a matter of fact, they had already planned to leave.
However, at such a critical moment, Gu Changge probably wouldn't let them leave safely.
"I've always been curious. Why is Gu Changge always against you?"
An Xi suddenly asked after a moment of silence.
Because she recalled the shock on the Little War Immortal's face at the Divine Stone Convention.
Although the Little War Immortal had brushed it off casually, her instinct told her it wasn't so simple.
"It's a big deal. You have to promise me that you won't tell anyone else. Otherwise, Gu Changge will definitely try his best to kill us if we alert him."
"By then, his methods will definitely be more horrible and crazy than the assassins he sent this time."
The Little War Immortal looked unprecedentedly serious. He asked everyone in the palace to leave as he spoke, leaving only Jiang Chen and the others.
In his opinion, everyone here had a grudge against Gu Changge. They would learn about this sooner or later.
Seeing the Little War Immortal so serious, An Xi and the others also became serious. They pricked up their ears to listen carefully, afraid they would miss a word.
"Don't worry. We won't tell anyone else," An Xi nodded and promised.
The Little War Immortal took a deep breath. Then he told them how he had been attacked by the inheritor of the demonic method.
Thanks to the Doctrine Protector's timely appearance, he was saved.
However, he was also heavily injured because of this, his source source almost shattering.
During that incident, he had used his innate eye ability to see the true face of the inheritor of the demonic arts.
"You're saying that the inheritor of the demonic arts is actually … someone close to Gu Changge?"
Hearing this, An Xi's expression changed drastically. She suddenly understood many things. Her expression became very pale, and she even felt a chill run down her back. She was terrified.
She could feel her voice trembling uncontrollably.
Jiang Chen and Niu Tian hadn't expected to hear such shocking news, either. They couldn't help but take a deep breath. Their eyes were wide open, and their scalps were numb.
"Yes, the inheritor of the demonic arts is actually one of Gu Changge's people! I can guarantee that! "
"And it's that maid who has always been by Gu Changge's side."
Little War Immortal took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
He knew how incredible this was and how many people were involved. Once this news spread out, it would definitely cause a great disturbance in the Upper Realm, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
"I see. No wonder the inheritor of the demonic arts escaped from Gu Changge so many times. That's why."
It took An Xi a long time to calm herself down and figure out all the rumors she had heard.
She couldn't help but feel scared.
If the Little War Immortal hadn't told her, she wouldn't have had the nerve to think that way.
What was Gu Changge up to? The inheritor of the demonic arts, who could frighten the Upper Realm, was actually his maid?
An Xi's face turned a little pale. She suddenly regretted being Gu Changge's enemy.
It was hard to guess what such a person was thinking.
"Don't tell anyone about this. Before we have enough evidence, if Gu Changge knows about this … we'll definitely be killed."
The Little War Immortal warned them again in a low voice.
Sometimes, the more one knew, the better.
He even regretted that he hadn't kept calm at the Divine Stone Convention and showed his unusual behavior.
An Xi nodded. She knew this was a big deal. If it was leaked, it would bring them a great disaster.
Before they had enough evidence, even if they told anyone about this, it wouldn't work. Very few people would believe them.
"We got it." Jiang Chen and Niu Tian glanced at each other. They both fell silent.
Jiang Chen thought of Xiao Ruoyin immediately. He felt a chill down his spine. His hands and feet were as cold as ice.
Gu Changge was the inheritor of the demonic arts' master. This was totally beyond his imagination.
So, where did the inheritor of the demonic arts come from?
He was a little scared. He suddenly thought of the black-robed old man who had given him the demonic arts.
This was too dreadful. Didn't all the disasters the inheritor of the demonic arts had caused over the years happen under Gu Changge's watch? Or with his acquiescence?
"Young Miss, this is bad …"
"Miss An Yan intercepted the drop of Hidden Immortal's genuine blood you sent to the ancestral star to get!"
At this moment, a servant of the An Race outside the hall suddenly came up in a panic. He reported in a trembling voice.
"What?"
An Xi turned pale. Her eyes opened wide. It was the first time she had been frightened by An Yan. She couldn't believe it.
"How dare An Yan? How did she do it? "
An Xi almost gnashed her teeth in anger. This younger sister, who she had never taken seriously since she was a child, had intercepted her drop of Hidden Immortal's genuine blood.
She couldn't believe what she had just heard.
This kind of behavior was tantamount to making her already bad situation even worse, making it even more difficult.
According to the rules of the An Race, An Yan was certainly qualified to fight for the drop of Hidden Immortal's genuine blood in the ancestral star.
However, An Xi hadn't expected An Yan to take advantage of her absence to do such a thing. She had intercepted her item on the way!
She flew into a rage. She wished she could go back to the Race right away to solve this problem.
However, the matter in front of her made her unable to leave.
"When the matter in Kun Wu City is settled, I will make that damn girl regret it."
An Xi's face was extremely gloomy and ugly.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
The entire Kun Wu City was in an uproar because of the Ji Family's imminent attack on Mount Kun.
Zhai Xing Lou was located in the northernmost corner of Kun Wu City. It was named after the meaning of being able to pluck the stars.
The entire Zhai Xing Lou was extremely grand and ancient. It was built with immortal stones. The pavilion was brilliant, and the light of treasures flickered. Immortal mist rose everywhere. It was incomparably gorgeous, as if an ancient immortal building was located in the mortal world.
As the place where Gu Changge had invited many young supremes, it was particularly lively today.
At the entrance of Zhai Xing Lou, many cultivators were welcoming guests. Even many of the older generation powerhouses had come to join in the fun.
Although the top young generation of the entire Upper Realm had not gathered today, most of them had come.
Every young prodigy had precious splendor flowing on their bodies. They walked like dragons and tigers, and the top of their heads was filled with sparkling light. Their spiritual power was very strong.
Behind them were many attendants or followers.
After all, to be invited by Gu Changge meant that they were at least the successors of the imperishable great sects. Their identities were indescribable. In the future, they would be the best candidates to lead the imperishable great sects. Their futures were limitless.
"The Heavenly Phoenix Maiden is here!"
Suddenly, a series of exclamations sounded outside Zhai Xing Lou. Not far away, a divine rainbow descended from the sky. It was as if a divine phoenix had spread its wings, dazzling and astonishing.
A tall young woman walked over. Her red hair was like fire, and she had a cold and noble aura.
It was the ancient freak, the Heavenly Phoenix Maiden. After she arrived, she was quickly led into the building by the servants outside.
Behind the Heavenly Phoenix Maiden, the other young supremes, such as Six Crown King Jun Yao, Golden Cicada Buddha, Sky Demon Monarch, and others also crossed the void and came one after another. They were followed by many followers, looking extremely formal and cautious.
To be honest, not many people were willing to attend today's banquet.
However, if they did not come, it would be not giving Gu Changge face, and it would also be not considering the safety of the Upper Realm.
Wearing such a big hat would have a great impact on their reputation.
"It seems that everyone's feelings are the same as mine."
Six Crown King smiled and glanced at Golden Cicada Buddha, Sky Demon Monarch, and the others.
"Brother Jun Yao, why do you say that?"
Sky Demon Monarch shook his head. Seeing that almost all the young supremes in Kunwu City had rushed over, he was relieved.
Seeing this, he felt much better in his heart.
"Haha, Gu Changge wants to force us to enter Mount Kun. It's extremely dangerous, and there's a risk of losing our lives. He's powerful, comparable to those who have achieved the Dao, but won't we just be courting death if we go in?"
"His intentions are murderous!"
On the other side, the burly Little Sacred King walked over and sneered. His tone was full of dissatisfaction.
"Everyone, let's talk to Gu Changge later."
Golden Cicada Buddha put his palms together and shook his head gently.
In terms of righteousness, rescuing the Ji family's ancestor, Ji Shengchu, was the responsibility of the many orthodoxies in the Upper Realm.
As his descendants, it was even more difficult for them to absolve themselves from the blame. Not to mention, during this process, Gu Changge had taken the lead.
His actions made it difficult for everyone to retreat, and they could not find a reason to do so.
Soon, under the guidance of the servants in front of the tower, everyone slowly entered Zhai Xing Tower.
A banquet had already been prepared, and many beautiful maids were serving dishes and wine on the table. They seemed to have been waiting for them for a long time.
Here, Sky Demon Monarch and the others saw many old acquaintances. They were the best of the younger generation, and it was difficult to find a match for them.
The Ji family's siblings, Ji Yaoxing and Ji Chuyue, were among them.
At the head of the table, Gu Changge had not arrived yet, which made their expressions even more gloomy.
"Everyone, don't be anxious. Our young master is on his way."
An old man dressed like a butler with a face full of wrinkles said with a smile. He seemed to have noticed the dissatisfaction of Sky Demon Monarch and the others, so he explained.
As soon as they saw this old man, everyone in Zhai Xing Tower narrowed their eyes slightly. They were shocked, and they did not dare act as casually as before.
An Accomplished Doctrine!!
This old man dressed like a butler had an unfathomable cultivation, and there was the energy of the Sovereign Realm flowing around him. Apparently, he was also an Accomplished Doctrine.
They were shocked. They could not figure out who this old man was. Was he a butler or the Gu family's ancestor?
At this moment, they heard some noises outside Zhai Xing Tower again.
Little Warlord, An Xi, Jiang Chen, and the others were led here by the servants. However, compared to before, Little Warlord looked pale, as if he had not recovered from his serious injuries.
"Greetings, Doctrine Brothers!"
Little Warlord forced himself to smile and saluted Sky Demon Monarch and the others.
"Brother Warlord, it seems that you have not recovered from your injuries. Looks like the assassin that day was not a small matter."
Seeing Little Warlord in such a state, people felt pity for him.
After all, he had just been attacked by a demonic method inheritor, and now he had been attacked by an assassin. It was said that he had been seriously injured.
Many people were also curious about who Little Warlord had offended. He had almost been killed by an assassin on the second day after the Divine Stone Convention.
They had not heard of any of the other young Supreme Venerables who had encountered such a thing.
Little Warlord said with a bitter smile, "Thank you for your concern, Doctrine Brothers. It's not a big deal. I'll be fine after some rest."
As he spoke, his heart was a little gloomy. He looked ahead but did not see Gu Changge's figure.
"Oh, is everyone here?"
While the young Supreme Venerables were talking in low voices, a gentle voice suddenly came from the head of the table.
People looked over and saw Gu Changge in a black robe. He was tall and straight. His black hair was shining. His facial features were handsome, and he was smiling. They did not know when he had appeared on the table.
An Xi could not help but feel scared when she had heard his voice, but she forced herself to stay calm.
Yin Mei, Su Qingge, and others were standing behind Gu Changge. They were standing there quietly with their hands behind their backs. They were so beautiful that they looked like jade sculptures.
Jiang Chen and Niu Tian sized Su Qingge up calmly. They were very cautious.
If they had not seen it with their own eyes, they would not have believed that the ruthless inheritor of demonic methods who had wreaked havoc in the Upper Realm was such a beautiful woman.
"Greetings, Young Lord Changge!"
The Monarch of Celestial Monsters, Six Crown King, Golden Cicada Buddhist Son, and others were shocked. They had not sensed when Gu Changge had arrived.
"Brother Warlord, I heard that you were attacked by an assassin the day before yesterday. You were seriously injured. I sent many healing herbs to you. But they didn't seem to work."
Gu Changge smiled. He told the others not to be so polite. He looked at Little Warlord with interest.
He seemed to be very concerned about his injuries.
Little Warlord had not expected Gu Changge to say that to him in front of so many people. He felt even more gloomy. He clenched his fists.
But on the surface, he still showed a wry smile and explained, "Thank you for your concern, Young Master Changge. The healing medicine you sent is not of much help to my injury, but this injury is not a big problem. I will be fine after a period of recuperation."
This was the excuse he had prepared for a long time. He was preparing himself for refusing to enter Mount Kun.
He was not stupid. He knew once he left Kunwu City and entered Mount Kun, he would definitely die.
In that kind of place, if Gu Changge wanted to kill him, it would be easier than crushing an ant.
