Gu Changge's gaze was profound. In an instant, millions of thoughts appeared in his mind, covering every inch of space and time in an attempt to deduce who was scheming against the Dao Chang True World.
In truth, when he met Ah Man in the Dao Chang True World, he had noticed it a long time ago.
However, he did not pay much attention to it at that time. He thought that it might just be an accident and that Ah Man's appearance in the Dao Chang True World was purely a coincidence.
After all, outliers were rare existences. If they were truly outliers, how could they be allowed to appear in another True World?
It was especially so when Ah Man was going through a trial of life and death that could be said to be a dream within a dream.
If Gu Changge had not exposed her, she might have continued to sink into that dream that she could not wake up from and search for the truth that she could not break through.
Gu Changge was not surprised by this trial. At that time, he only thought that Ah Man had a great background.
There was a high possibility that she came from another True World and ended up in this place by accident. Then, she went through a trial in the Dao Chang True World.
The disciples of some of the supreme True Worlds in the Vast Expanse would often be asked to head to some desolate places to undergo trials.
Only by passing the trials would they have the right to improve their status and become inner sect disciples or true disciples. They would then be able to learn the true Daos, skills, and divine abilities of the Dao orthodoxy.
At that time, Gu Changge had deliberately left a mark on Ah Man's body to determine her origins so that he could use her in the future.
Ah Man was not from the Dao Chang True World, and she was not tainted by its presence.
The land she lived in was called the Savage Continent. It was originally one of the origins of the Berserkers and had no connection to her.
Unfortunately, during the many cycles of life and death, she had forgotten her past and always believed that she was a Berserker.
As the last princess of the Berserker Tribe, she shouldered the heavy responsibility of saving the Berserkers and fighting against the Immortal Dao. At the same time, she wanted to search for the truth behind the God of Berserkers' disappearance.
However, she did not know that the real first God of Berserkers was watching them coldly from another True World. He treated the tribe leaders of the Berserkers who sought the truth and the other Gods of Berserkers as food.
Among them was naturally her current adoptive father, the tribe leader of the Berserker Tribe.
The elder Ah Man had always revered was the true master behind the first God of Berserkers. He was also one of the main culprits behind this beautiful dream.
She had reincarnated 193 times in this process, experiencing death, rebirth, and the cycle repeated itself. Gradually, she had forgotten her past and her origins.
When Gu Changge accidentally saw her, he did not feel much pity for her.
As for this young girl with a tragic fate, he only wanted to nurture her for his own use, and in the future, she would be able to help him harvest providence.
But later on, he saw a shadow of the former Chan Hongyi in Wilde. She was stubborn, unyielding, and patient.
Only then did he feel some compassion for her and point out some of the truth for her. He also carefully taught her and passed down a cultivation method to help her break through the situation.
In addition, Wilde had a demon heart. If nothing unexpected happened, she was destined to become a demon in the future.
Gu Changge had awakened her demonic heart in advance, which could be considered as making it easier for her to take that step.
If he had not pointed it out, Wilde would have seen through everything sooner or later and experienced the pain. Only extreme hatred could make the demon heart truly transform and awaken.
Perhaps this was also the true goal of the person who planned this trial behind the scenes.
Gu Changge did not think too much about it at that time. He just thought that Wilde's trial was a coincidence.
Once he thought about it again, he immediately felt that the motive of the person who planned all of this was definitely not simple.
Wilde might have appeared in the Dao Chang True World because that person had personally sent her there.
'Besides that person, there is another person who is scheming against the Dao Chang True World. Could it be that there is still some secret in the Dao Chang True World that I don't know about?'
Many thoughts flashed through Gu Changge's mind. He connected the matter with Wilde to the Dao Realm ancient monk who had appeared in the Dao Chang True World.
When he had turned into the Demon Lord and walked the world, it was purely a coincidence that he had saved Qing Yi, who was a True Spirit.
At that time, he had not chosen a suitable True World to live in seclusion and had not started his own plan.
However, he had coincidentally seen Qing Yi leading an army to fight against the Great Liquidation, which was why he had thought of it.
As for why he would get closer to Qing Yi and live in seclusion in the True Mountain and Sea World, he had just gone with the flow and let nature take its course.
'Looks like this presence is just as I expected. It does come from the Nine Heavens …'
While Gu Changge was deep in thought, he finally captured the karmic connection and confirmed the identity of the person who had plotted against the Dao Chang True World.
However, if it came from the Nine Heavens, then he could ignore it for the time being.
After all, he still had another chess piece in the Nine Heavens that was even deeper in his plans.
Gu Changge did not want to get involved with the Nine Heavens for the time being, but sooner or later, he would have to take action against them.
The Nine Heavens might seem to have a transcendent status in the Vast Expanse, but there were legends about them in all the worlds. They were the legendary source of the Immortal Dao.
However, in Gu Changge's eyes, the Nine Heavens were more like the final resting place of the incarnations of the Heavens who had been destroyed during the Great Liquidation. They were rather unique.
In terms of power and resources alone, they were far inferior to those supreme True Worlds.
Once he confirmed who had plotted against the Dao Chang True World, Gu Changge had another plan. He could take advantage of the situation, and when the time came for him to take action against the Nine Heavens, it would save him a lot of trouble.
Once the royal family of Spirit Ruins' army was gathered, Gu Changge planned to send them to attack the Immortal Spirit civilization.
The Immortal Spirit civilization might not be able to compare to the supreme civilizations, but among the ancient civilizations, it was still above average. It was definitely not something the Spirit Ruins' civilization could compare to.
Once they conquered the Immortal Spirit civilization's world, it would save Gu Changge a lot of time in gathering resources.
After all, he was going to do something that was no different from creating a new world for the entire Vast Expanse.
If he did not have enough resources to support it, how could he do it?
Chu Lian's matter was just a small interlude. He would not put too much effort into it.
In the Sage Gathering Manor.
Sovereign Ling personally came to Chu Lian's courtyard and sat in front of the stone bench. She was also following Gu Changge's instructions and telling Chu Lian that she intended to recruit him.
"My cousin admires you quite a bit, Young Master Chu Lian. He thinks that you have the potential to be a commander and will definitely achieve great things in the future. "With your help, it won't be a problem for you to overthrow the royal family of Spirit Ruins' rule."
Sovereign Ling spoke with a smile. Her posture was elegant and dignified. Her sleeves were wide, her hair was like the clouds, her neck was snow-white, her legs were straight and slender, and her skirt dragged on the ground. Her words and actions showed the good upbringing of a lady from a noble family.
Chu Lian was frowning because the Artifact Spirit of the Great Wish Ball did not respond to him.
Sovereign Ling's sudden visit surprised him, but also made him feel much better.
After all, a beauty was right in front of him, and her gentle words were indeed pleasing to the eye.
"Senior brother, look, even Miss Huang personally came to recruit you. It's enough to show how much Young Master Gu values you."
His junior sister, Ming Xiu, also said with a grin.
She could tell that her senior brother had a good impression of Miss Huang.
During the journey, he would occasionally pay attention to Miss Huang's actions.
"Go to one side, I have something to discuss with Miss Huang."
Chu Lian waved his hand, asking this eyesore junior sister to leave quickly.
It was rare for him to have a chance to talk to Miss Huang alone and ask her some questions.
Sovereign Ling had a smile on her face and her actions were elegant and calm. There was an entire stone table between her and Chu Lian, maintaining a distance that was neither close nor distant.
After Mingxiu left, Chu Lian also sat down on the stone bench and couldn't help but say, "Miss Huang, along the way, you and I can be considered to have a pleasant conversation. I believe you have some understanding of my character and know that I am not the kind of person who will be ordered around by others and depend on others. I can only say that I appreciate Young Master Gu's good intentions. I also admire his actions. He has done something that I have always wanted to do but did not have the ability to do. "
"I hope that Miss Huang will thank him for his good intentions in front of Young Master Gu when you return."
Now that the Artifact Spirit of the Great Wish Ball did not move, Chu Lian did not know if this place was safe or dangerous.
Was that black-robed old man the person he was worried about?
Therefore, he could only reject temporarily and think of a way to leave this place first.
Although he also wanted to achieve great things and overthrow the tyrannical rule of the Spiritual Ruins Royal Family, purge the world and restore peace.
"Young Master Chu Lian, you don't have to be in a hurry to reject, you can consider it again. Cousin's power is beyond your imagination. If you become his guest, he can give you many benefits that you can't imagine. Be it strength or resources, he can help you."
"Moreover, I think that Young Master Chu Lian is in urgent need of some resources. Even if you don't need them, your junior sister should need them. Moreover, Young Master Chu Lian should have other relatives behind him …"
"You can consider it more," Sovereign Ling said with a smile. She was not surprised that Chu Lian would reject immediately.
Because this was also within Gu Changge's instructions and expectations.
Her main purpose now was to inform Chu Lian that Gu Changge was interested in recruiting him. In essence, she wanted Chu Lian to trust them as much as possible and let down his guard.
Chu Lian was actually a little moved when he heard this. Although he had the help of the Great Wish Ball, cultivation resources were still a huge expense.
Besides that, Sovereign Ling was right. His junior sister's cultivation resources, how could he not consider these?
There were other things that did not need to be said.
"Since Miss Huang has said so, I will think about it again."
Chu Lian replied and then looked at Sovereign Ling. "However, compared to this, I am more curious about the relationship between Miss Huang and Young Master Gu. I think that you two are not cousins, right? Along the way, Miss Huang has been very respectful to him. Moreover, she has removed her veil in front of Young Master Gu … "
If not for his meticulous observation, it would be difficult for him to notice these details.
Every time she walked out of the carriage, there would be a slight change in the veil on Sovereign Ling's face. This meant that she had removed her veil when she returned to the carriage.
In front of them, she had always worn a veil and did not show her face.
Sovereign Ling was slightly stunned when she heard this. She did not expect Chu Lian to say such straightforward words. Moreover, how could he tell?
She thought that her performance was good and did not show any abnormalities along the way.
However, Chu Lian was right about another point.
Apart from in front of Gu Changge, she had worn a veil the rest of the time.
She was the Empress of the royal family of the Mystical Ruins, the youngest Dao Realm existence. How could she show her face in front of outsiders?
"Young Master Chu Lian is really observant to see through this. However, it is not convenient for me to tell you about my relationship with my cousin. I hope you don't mind."
"My cousin's identity and status is not something that I can reach or look up to. Although he is usually gentle, he still has to show respect."
Sovereign Ling smiled and shook her head without revealing too much.
Hearing this, Chu Lian was enlightened. It was similar to his guess.
After all, the strength of the black-robed old man was unfathomable.
However, these words coming from the mouth of a woman he had a good impression of made him feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
Then, the two of them talked about some other matters before Sovereign Ling stood up and left to report.
Chu Lian felt a little regretful. He had a good impression of Sovereign Ling, but she seemed to only treat him as a friend. Instead, she seemed to be full of respect and admiration towards Young Master Gu.
This feeling made him feel very jealous.
However, he was not someone who cared about romantic feelings. He had more important things in his heart.
Not long after Sovereign Ling left, Chu Lian was pleasantly surprised to find that the weapon spirit of the Sphere of Great Wishes seemed to have awakened and started to respond to his words.
He hurriedly used the Eight Directional Cloud Rain Flag to conceal the heavenly secrets of this place to prevent anyone from spying.
Then, he hurriedly asked and threw all the doubts and questions he had during this period of time to the weapon spirit of the Sphere of Great Wishes.
The weapon spirit of the Sphere of Great Wishes had sealed off its connection with the outside world during this period of time, so it did not know what had happened.
Only after Chu Lian finished explaining everything did it understand.
"At that time, in the land of your clan, that terrifying aura that had suddenly disappeared returned. It seemed to have sensed that something was amiss and turned back. I was frightened and knew that something was wrong. I was worried that something unexpected would happen, so I resolutely cut off all connection with the outside world to prevent the owner of that terrifying aura from detecting it. "
The weapon spirit of the Sphere of Great Wishes explained. While Chu Lian was enlightened, he was also shocked and broke out in cold sweat.
If not for its explanation, he would not have known how dangerous and terrifying the situation was at that time.
