At this moment, it wasn't only the Ji siblings who were curious about what had happened in the cave.
Even the others were curious and confused. Staring at Gu Changge, they couldn't help but guess what had happened.
After all, everyone had been running for their lives. How could they have known whether the Ji family's ancestor was trapped in the cave?
They had totally forgotten why they had come to Mount Kun in the first place.
Most importantly, all the great orthodoxies who had come to Mount Kun had suffered great losses. Even several leaders of great sects had died.
In such a situation, even staying alive had become a problem. No one had the time to care about the Ji family's ancestor.
Seeing people looking at him, Gu Changge wasn't surprised. He had prepared an excuse.
So, he shook his head slightly and said, "When I entered the cave, I chased after Jiang Chen, but I didn't go far before I ran into a fog that I don't know where it came from."
"I was trapped there for several months. When I got out, I heard fighting noises in the distance. However, I didn't go near because I felt the energy wasn't something I could handle.
"I guess it was Senior Ji Shengchu who was fighting with the Taoist in feathery clothes …
"I haven't seen the Taoist in feathery clothes these days. Maybe he was sealed by Senior Ji Shengchu in Mount Kun again. It's a pity that the others …"
Gu Changge looked regretful, as if he felt it was a pity that he hadn't been able to save Ji Shengchu.
Ji Yaoxing and Ji Chuyue's expressions also darkened.
Although they had expected this, they still felt depressed after hearing what Gu Changge had said.
Their ancestor, Ji Shengchu, might still be trapped in Mount Kun.
But he might have died together with the Taoist in feathery clothes.
And the culprit behind all this was Jiang Chen, whom Ji Chuyue had trusted so much.
"That hateful Jiang Chen. He killed so many strong people this time. He won't be able to stay in the Upper Realm anymore."
Many people flew into a rage after hearing this. They were filled with righteous indignation.
Jiang Chen didn't just block all of their escape routes, but he also released the Taoist in Feathery Clothes, who was sealed in the mysterious jade. As a result, many Taoist orthodoxies and sects' cultivators were killed by him. Even those who had achieved the Doctrine couldn't survive.
He had committed such a heinous crime that it would not be excessive to tear him into a thousand pieces, pull out his tendons and pull out his bones.
"Sister, it's not your fault. It's Jiang Chen's fault. Even you were kept in the dark by him."
"I already said that he is not a good person. If you meet him again in the future, you have to be careful."
Seeing that his sister's expression was extremely guilty, Ji Yaoxing couldn't help but sigh.
He assumed Jiang Chen had already left Kun Mountain and fled to Yao Yao.
With his means, the restrictions and array patterns in Kun Mountain could not stop him.
"I'm the one who harmed the elders and clansmen. They …"
Ji Chuyue said with a gloomy expression, secretly feeling guilty.
She had always felt that Jiang Chen didn't look like a bad person. He always acted in a carefree and confident manner, firm and resolute.
However, as it turned out, she was not only wrong, but also very wrong.
Jiang Chen was a well-hidden inheritor of demonic methods. Countless young Supreme Venerables had died tragically at his hands.
Perhaps Jiang Chen had approached her because he wanted to get her body's origin.
Maybe he would attack her one day when she wasn't paying attention.
"Miss Chuyue, you don't have to blame yourself. In fact, I didn't know Jiang Chen was an inheritor of demonic methods before this."
"It's reasonable that you were fooled by him. But from now on, Miss Chuyue, you have to learn from him. "
Gu Changge smiled gently. He comforted her. "That's why Jiang Chen took advantage of your kindness and kept you in the dark for so long."
Ji Chuyue was struck dumb, too, since she hadn't expected Gu Changge to comfort her.
Then she recalled what he had done in the dungeon. Her pretty face reddened slightly.
As far as she knew, Gu Changge was extremely cold and strong. He rarely comforted others like this.
She couldn't help but have a strange feeling. She nodded and said yes in a low voice.
Over the next few days, the group headed out of Mount Kun together.
Along the way, they encountered many scattered cultivators and living beings, and from their conversations, they asked about the situation during this period of time.
In fact, what they had gone through was almost the same, but this group was unlucky. They had run into the ice flood dragon they had encountered before. Many of them had died tragically in its mouth.
They were lucky enough to survive. Some even saw the Heaven Monster Monarch being swallowed by the ice flood dragon. No one knew whether he was dead or alive.
Many people were horrified by the news.
The Heaven Monster Monarch was one of the best of the current young generation. He was at the peak of his generation. His future was limitless.
Even he had died?
The group, who had been saved from death's door, fell silent. They felt very heavy. They had expected what had happened in Mount Kun would cause a great disturbance if the news spread.
First, on the way to Mount Kun, the Ans and the War Immortals Mansion had encountered misfortune and died tragically.
Then the true identity of Jiang Chen, the inheritor of demonic methods, had been exposed. A peerless villain had been released. He had killed many leaders and Achievements of the great sects.
Now, even the Heaven Monster Monarch had died tragically in the mouth of the ice flood dragon?
The news would definitely shock the whole Upper Realm.
The Ans, the War Immortals Mansion, the Heavenly Monster Temple, and other forces would never give up.
Half a month later, the group finally left Mount Kun's territory and saw the sun again.
The dreadful energy had been isolated. The sky outside was clear and cloudless. Occasionally, divine rainbows would flash by. The group was pleasantly surprised and excited.
"That's great. We're finally out. I don't want to come to Mount Kun a second time …"
Some people were so excited that they started to talk incoherently.
Ji Chuyue and Ji Yaoxing also exclaimed. They felt like they had been trapped in Mount Kun for a long time if Gu Changge had not been there.
Maybe they would have ended up like their ancestors. They would have been trapped there for the rest of their lives.
"I wonder whether father, elders, and others have escaped …"
The two looked back at Mount Kun, still scared.
After that, everyone cupped their hands and thanked Gu Changge before taking their leave. They expressed their gratitude for the time they had spent with Gu Changge. Then, without stopping, they turned into divine rainbows and left. They wanted to return to their respective forces and report what had happened in Mount Kun.
"My sister and I will never forget Young Lord Changge's kindness. If Young Lord Changge needs anything in the future, please don't hesitate to tell us. My sister and I will not refuse even if we have to go through a mountain of swords or a sea of flames."
Ji Yaoxing and Ji Chuyue also collected their emotions and left to return to their families.
After the incident of rescuing the ancestors of the Ji family, the Ji family had suffered a great loss. The few surviving ancestors had also died tragically in Mount Kun.
The rest were nowhere to be found. No one knew if they were dead or alive.
From now on, even if the Ji family could rescue their ancestors, they would be reduced to a second-rate or even third-rate force. They would never be able to return to their former glory.
"Brother Yaoxing, Miss Chuyue, take care."
Gu Changge smiled as he watched them leave.
The reason why he saved everyone from Mount Kun was mainly because he wanted them to spread the news of what had happened in Mount Kun to the outside world.
Although Jiang Chen had died, Gu Changge still wanted to create an illusion that the inheritor of the demonic method was still alive and had only escaped from Yao Yao.
After returning to Kun Wu City, Gu Changge asked Ada to bring An Yan here first.
He had told Ada to take An Yan away from Mount Kun when he had chased after Jiang Chen in the underground palace. After all, he had to keep this chess piece in order to control the Annals.
Since An Xi had died, the Annals would be controlled by An Yan from now on.
Those drops of Hidden Immortal's genuine blood were useful to Gu Changge.
In addition, the An Tribe's strength in the Upper Realm was not weak. To Gu Changge, it would not cost much to control them.
"You'd better go back to the Palace of Dao Heavenly Immortals. Since I said I would let bygones be bygones, I won't blame you anymore."
Then Gu Changge sensed Xiao Ruoyin's energy. He frowned slightly. Then he relaxed. He said calmly to the void behind him.
Xiao Ruoyin had been following him when they had left Mount Kun, but she had not shown herself.
As a Fateless Body, if Xiao Ruoyin tried her best to hide her energy, even those who had achieved the Doctrine would not be able to detect her.
That was what she had been thinking. She had hidden her energy well. That was why she had followed him.
But to her surprise, Gu Changge had noticed her.
Hearing this, Xiao Ruoyin's figure appeared in the void. She nodded but didn't say anything.
Since she had recovered her memory of her previous life, she did not need to stay in the Palace of Dao Heavenly Immortals anymore.
However, since it was Gu Changge who had asked her to stay, she certainly would not turn him down.
Now, she could take advantage of this time to sort out her memories and make plans for what to do next.
Not long after Xiao Ruoyin left, Ah Da brought An Yan over.
"Greetings, Young Lord Changge."
An Yan stood respectfully. After leaving Mount Kun, she had been waiting in Kun Wu City for Gu Changge's return.
After seeing An Xi, Little War Immortal, and the others killed by Gu Changge, she understood one thing.
In the current Upper Realm, it was best not to go against Gu Changge.
"I'll leave the An Tribe to you. I hope you won't disappoint me."
Gu Changge glanced at her and said casually.
An Yan nodded and said seriously, "Please rest assured, Young Lord Changge. I won't let you down."
After what had happened in Mount Kun, the An Tribe was furious. They had sent out a large number of people to investigate.
An Old Ancestor and Young Mistress had died in Mount Kun, along with many experts who went with them. It was a huge blow to the An Tribe's overall strength.
However, this was also an opportunity for An Yan. She could use this opportunity to consolidate An Xi's power and control the An Tribe.
Her ambition was no less than her sister An Xi's. It was just that she had been biding her time for the past few years.
In the next few days, as Gu Changge expected, the news of the various orthodoxies attacking Mount Kun spread like wildfire. It was like a meteorite falling into the deep sea, stirring up an unimaginable storm.
She begged for fresh flowers.
The Ji Family's ancestor was not rescued. Instead, a terrifying Taoist who was sealed in a black jade was released. He was murderous and murderous.
Fortunately, the terrifying Taoist did not leave Mount Kun in the end. Many speculated that he was killed by the Ji Family's ancestor. They might even have perished together.
There were all kinds of speculations and it caused a huge commotion.
Almost all of the orthodoxies flew into a rage when they had learned how the Taoist in Feather Clothes had been released.
Jiang Chen, the culprit, was exposed again. He was an inheritor of demonic methods, an inheritor of Divine Origin Masters, and he had killed the leaders of various large sects …
No matter what he had done, he had incurred the wrath of the people. They wished they could cut him into pieces.
All of the orthodoxies sent people to search for Jiang Chen's identity as soon as possible.
Posters offering a huge reward for Jiang Chen could be seen in all of the ancient cities.
Some loyal men even gathered together, intending to go on a punitive expedition against Jiang Chen.
Many people thought he had not died in Mount Kun. Instead, he had taken advantage of the chaos to escape. No one knew where he was hiding by then.
In the end, many of Jiang Chen's backgrounds were uncovered.
However, many people were shocked to find that his twenty-odd years of life had disappeared into thin air.
No one knew where Jiang Chen had been born or where he had come from. There was no trace of his master, orthodoxy, and so on.
It was more like there was no record of his twenty-odd years. It was like a blank piece of paper.
Such a bizarre thing gave rise to a lot of heated discussions. The practitioners in the ancient cities were all speculating. They thought Jiang Chen must have been supported by some big shot.
He had been hiding too well.
All of this was within Gu Changge's expectations. After all, even if Jiang Chen had died, he would still be the scapegoat.
..... ..... ...
During this time, eliminating the scourge of the Absolute Yin Sky and going on a punitive expedition against the inheritor of demonic methods had become the top priority for all of the orthodoxies.
Mount Kun, which had been in turmoil, quieted down gradually. It had become a forbidden land. No living creatures could enter it anymore.
Gu Changge did not stay in Kun Wu City for long. He went back to his family after telling An Yan to handle the affairs of the An Clan.
It could be said he had gained a lot from rescuing the Ji family's ancestor.
Putting his reputation aside, it would take him a long time to digest the origins of the Ji family's ancestor and the Taoist in Feather Clothes he had devoured.
In addition, the drop of genuine blood of the Hidden Immortal contained many fragments of the law and comprehension of the Hidden Immortal of the An Clan. After Gu Changge devoured it, it helped him to stabilize his foundation, which had just become a Doctrine Achiever.
He did not announce to the public that he had become a Doctrine Achiever. It was not necessary for Gu Changge to do so.
The Upper Realm had been afraid of him for a long time. If news of his breakthrough spread suddenly, it would probably cause a sensation. It would not be less than what had happened in Mount Kun.
So, Gu Changge decided to wait a little longer.
At the peak of the mountain, the wind was blowing. Clouds and mist were everywhere. It was like a fairyland in the human world.
As far as the eye could see, the sea of clouds was rolling. There was no end in sight. The world seemed to be boundless. Only some peaks could be seen.
"You've become a Doctrine Achiever?"
Her cold and calm voice did not seem to have many emotional fluctuations. Perhaps it had always been like this.
Gu Qingyi sat sideways on a bluestone. Her clear and beautiful eyes were looking at the direction Gu Changge was coming from. She asked softly.
She was still dressed in a plain bluestone. Her figure was slim, her neck was long, and her hair was draped over her shoulders. Her eyebrows were like black, and her nose was small and delicate. She was flawless and beautiful that the Creator could not use words to describe.
"I was just lucky. But you're the one who found out. "
Gu Changge smiled and walked over. Then, he sat down on the bluestone that she was sitting on.
Gu Qingyi moved to the side and shook her head gently. "The word 'lucky' is not suitable for you."
"Qingyi, you really think highly of me. But I still can't see through your realm."
"This time, I happened to get something. Maybe you know what it is."
Gu Changge smiled indifferently. As he spoke, an object suddenly appeared in his hand.
It was a palm-sized boat. Sparkling and ancient, it was filled with a strong aura of vicissitudes.
It was as if it could travel through a mysterious river.
"Creation Immortal Boat?"
Gu Qingyi's gaze fell on his hand. There seemed to be a slight change in her expression, but she quickly returned to normal.
She did not ask how Gu Changge got it.
Because she already had a guess in her heart.
"Looks like you do recognize it."
Gu Changge smiled and then put away the Creation Immortal Boat.
"This time, I brought you some good things from the mortal world. I think you'll like them …"
With that, he waved his hand. There was a flash of light.
Many little things of the mortal world suddenly appeared on the bluestone in front of him. For example, rouge, sachets, hairpins, jade pendants, wooden combs … They were all things that women liked.
Gu Qingyi looked at him in a daze. Then, she picked up the sachet embroidered with mandarin ducks.
"I remember you gave me something similar in the past."
"At that time, you said that these were mandarin ducks, not wild ducks."
As she spoke, the corners of her mouth curved slightly. She seemed to have thought of something, but quickly returned to normal. Mortal.
