“It seems that you of know me. Then, who exactly are you?” With a smile on his face, Gu Changge walked in slowly. His clothes fluttered in the air, making his features seem extremely divine in the moonlight.
Then, he clapped his hands. Outside the courtyard behind him, a large number of cultivators rushed in. They all looked at Qin Wuya with killing intent as they surrounded him.
A horrifying aura surged in the courtyard, enveloping everyone in a murderous atmosphere. Everyone’s eyes were cold and with intent to kill, but there was still lingering fear in their hearts. From their point of view, Qin Wuya was actually on the same side as the black robed man, who suddenly broke in and wanted to assassinate Saintess Ziyan.
However, the two assassins were very wise. After the traces of one of them got exposed, they immediately came up with a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
The mysterious man in front of them took the opportunity to come here, and continue their plan of assassinating Saintess Ziyan.
[What a vicious plan! If it weren’t for the fact that Young Master Gu reacted quickly, sensing something was wrong, and had quickly returned, perhaps something awful would have happened to Saintess Ziyan! Once such a thing happens, everyone on patrol would naturally not be able to escape from being blamed.] At the thought of this, those who just came in wanted to kill Qin Wuya even more.
Seeing the murderous look on everyone’s face, Qin Wuya also felt that things were going downhill. Even if he was confident at the beginning, at this time, a chill came over him. He didn’t expect that Gu Changge would suddenly appear.
[Didn’t he go hunting down the assassin? Why did he suddenly turn back? If I don’t come up with some kind of explanation, I will be regarded as someone who is on the same side as the assassin.] Since Qin Wuya had been cultivating for many years and had an extraordinary state of mind, he easily calmed down and asked in a deep voice. “Gu Changge, if you are smart enough, let go of Saintess Ziyan.”
He didn’t directly answer Gu Changge’s question, instead, he took the initiative to make clear his relationship with the man in black robe. That he had nothing to do with that man. Moreover, his face was covered with a black veil, and runes flickered. There were special rules flowing through it, and he was not afraid of being seen through.
“Young Master Changge…” Liu Ziyan, whose pretty face had turned cold, also looked at Gu Changge with surprise. She didn’t know why she felt safe when she was with him.
When she was in despair, it was also Gu Changge who suddenly appeared and forced the black robed man to save her life. And now when she was in danger, he came back.
Although she knew the reason why he had saved her many times was that if she had been murdered in Gu Changge’s place, it would bring him a lot of trouble. Even so, she was still moved.
“Let Saintess Ziyan go? Where did you get the information that I have done something to her? Well done, blaming the victim. If I hadn’t noticed that there was something wrong with that black robed man, and guessed that he had accomplices, I’m afraid you would have succeeded. So, let me ask again. Just who are you?” Gu Changge smiled faintly. Between his hands behind his back, runes began to appear. They shone with peerless light, spreading a terrifying aura.
“Gu Changge, everyone in the world knows that you have placed Saintess Ziyan under house arrest. What else do you want to argue about at this time? I just can’t stand how you are treating her and came to rescue her.” Qin Wuya said while frowning as he looked at Liu Ziyan. “Don’t worry, Saintess Ziyan. I don’t mean you any harm. The reason why I come here tonight is to save you from the claws of the devil. “
He knew that when he first appeared, Liu Ziyan was extremely vigilant. She clearly assumed that he was on the same side as the black robed man and attacked him. But at this time, all he needed to do was to explain everything clearly. He believed that Liu Ziyan would understand he truly had come to save her.
“Save me? From the claws of the devil?” However, when she heard this, Liu Ziyan just sneered and said nothing. Her gaze was very cold. If it weren’t for her quick decisiveness earlier, she would have died here miserably, soul completely destroyed. Even then, the man in front of her was still planning to lie and deceive her.
[Does he really think that I can’t see the situation clearly? Can’t he have come up with a more decent excuse?] In her opinion, the man in front of her was the same as the black robed man, who had attacked her before. However, Sky King Zhi Yang was meticulous. He still felt worried after sending out one person. Therefore, he dispatched another.
“Saintess Ziyan, you have to trust me. I really don’t mean you any harm.” Qin Wuya said in a low voice. For some reason, Liu Ziyan was extremely vigilant against him.
“Young Master Changge, are you all right?” However, at this time, Liu Ziyan no longer cared about him. She asked Gu Changge with concern, recalling that his Source was already seriously injured. Now, even if his injuries had made a turn for the better, forcing himself to fight would probably make the injury worse.
“It shouldn’t be a big deal to deal with this guy.” Gu Changge replied with a smile, looking extraordinary with his elegant demeanor.
*Rumble!*
As he spoke, he made his move. His sleeves rolled up and he looked extremely domineering. The rumbling sound spread over all directions, shaking the sky. Many behind him also took action immediately. All kinds of divine abilities and artifacts shot forth, covering the night sky. They all shone brightly and emitted an incomparably terrifying aura. After all, these people were ranked top among their peers, and many were famous young prodigies.
Now, they had all simultaneously made a move. It was ferocious, turning the place into complete chaos. It was as if many stars exploded, and the terrifying waves shocked everyone in the Capital of the Black Tortoise Empire. Furthermore, all these mighty attack were all aimed toward Qin Wuya.
“Just with your bunch, you want to stop me?” Seeing that Liu Ziyan didn’t believe his words at all and was instead worried about Gu Changge, Qin Wuya frowned and rudely mocked. He didn’t intend to cause any unnecessary trouble. If Gu Changge was smart and let go of Liu Ziyan, he would take her away and wouldn’t do anything to Gu Changge.
Although Gu Changge had a lot of methods, he was seriously injured. So, what could he possibly do now? As for Gu Changge’s followers, they were nothing in his eyes. He didn’t need to care about them at all. He could defeat them easily.
“You all are so arrogant. It seems that what I have shown so far has been too gentle, giving everyone the courage to dare and bully me.” Gu Changge shook his head slightly at the scene in front of him. He looked calm and indifferent.
*Bang!* In the night sky, runes flowed, and an indescribable large palm rushed forth, bringing the power of the Great Dao. It was as if the sky was about to fall as it absorbed the power of the void.
Gu Changge attacked in a more domineering manner, and his methods were more frightening.
The terrifying crack in the void instantly spread out, like a palm print, crushing all directions, causing every inch of space to collapse.
It was as if he was not injured at all.
*Rumble!*
Moreover, at this time, the aura that Gu Changge displayed had reached the Sacred Lord Realm.
All kinds of Principles fell. A Sacred Lord Dharma Body even stood against the sky and the earth, as its golden light surged. It was as if a god was standing under the sky. With a wave of his large hand, he spurted out all kinds of divine clouds, dense and vast like the sea of stars, enveloping the place.
A large area of buildings collapsed and instantly turned into ashes, shaking the earth. By now, the identity of the Successor of Demonic Arts had been decided, and so he no longer bothered to hide his cultivation level.
At this moment, his aura had reached the Sacred Lord Realm, but the strength he had displayed was enough to even frighten someone in the Sacred King Realm.
“Sacred Lord Realm…” Qin Wuya’s expression changed slightly. His figure swept up into the sky, and at the same time, he made a move to fight against the incoming blow.
The way he cultivated came from an ancient age. Thus, the Principles he used were different and his aura was completely different from that of this world.
Large pieces of bone runes gushed out from his palms, with a sea of lightning. The runes turned into a long dragon that pierced through the universe. It was a terrifying scene, as if there were stars gathering together and exploding. It was unbelievable and extremely powerful. No one had thought that Qin Wuya’s methods would be so strange.
The rest were defeated the moment they touched it. Their artifacts exploded, and they all spat out blood and retreated, losing their ability to fight in an instant.
At the same time, Qin Wuya’s vast divine sense, as deep as the sea, turned into a divine sword, which swept across all directions. It made everyone present terrified. When they sensed this, they trembled from within their souls.
After all, if someone really in the Sacred King Realm were to use all his might to attack, he could easily destroy the stars and everything, even reaching another continent. Thus, the Black Tortoise Empire was still fine, largely because of his restraints. Otherwise, the land would be destroyed in an instant and turned into a wasteland.
“A Sacred King Realm expert? Where did Sky King Zhi Yang find such a powerful expert?” Liu Ziyan was also shocked, with cold sweat on her back. She was extremely scared. If it weren’t for Gu Changge who came in time, she would have been dead in the face of such a strong expert.
However, what surprised her more was that the strength that Gu Changge was showing now was far beyond her previous cognition. It seemed that Prince Shen did not die a resentful death. Even such a powerful man like Gu Changge had been seriously injured at that time. One could tell how terrifyingly powerful the Successor of Demonic Arts was.
“He is the Sacred King Realm, but this should not be his full strength.” Gu Changge’s Dharma Body was tall and powerful. Its might was boundless, and it could easily fend off the attacks Qin Wuya threw at it.
Seeing this, a strange look flashed across his eyes. After all, Qin Wuya was an expert that had returned from the Nine Realms. He had gone through all kinds of hardships, methods, and combat experiences there, which were incomparable to ordinary cultivators. After all, the Nine Realms was a place that many cultivators yearned for.
In Gu Changge’s eyes, Qin Wuya’s methods were all remarkable, moreover, he had yet to show his true strength.
“It seems that Junior Brother Zhi Yang’s worry is a reasonable one. At such a young age, Gu Changge’s strength is actually so terrifying… And he had never revealed it before.” After the blow, Qin Wuya frowned and his figure appeared on the other side. He looked relaxed, but in fact, he couldn’t calm down as dark clouds were stirring up in his heart.
In fact, many had guessed exactly how powerful Gu Changge was before this, because he hadn’t shown his true strength in front of everyone. Thus, they had to guess. After all, even in the face of young prodigies of the same generation, he could easily defeat them. So, as time went by, his strength became a mystery. Eventually, everyone just knew that he was unfathomable.
Gu Changge’s title as the Avatar of a True Immortal was not something to be trifled with. Many guessed that his cultivation level had actually surpassed many ancient monstrosities. However, today, even while he was seriously injured, the scene that Gu Changge displayed had surpassed that of a Sacred Lord Realm expert, which had shocked everyone.
