“Quick, Eldest Senior Brother, leave! Never mind me!” At this moment, Sky King Zhi Yang also realized Gu Changge’s intention and grew anxious. Still, he didn’t want to implicate Qin Wuya. [If Eldest Senior Brother remains, and gets noticed by everyone, it would be hard to prove his innocence.]
“Junior Brother!” Qin Wuya gnashed his teeth, his eyes full of rage and hatred as he struggled to come to a decision. He also knew that he couldn’t remain here.
“It’s here! It turns out that Sky King Zhi Yang was hiding here!”
“It’s him! The person who tried to assassinate Saintess Zhi Yan that night!”
“As expected, he’s in cahoot with Zhi Yang! Damn it! He’s trying to escape, hurry and intercept him…”
However, soon after the cultivators rushed over, some of them recognized Qin Wuya and were shocked.
Seeing Qin Wuya turning around and fleeing, made them angrily yell. They rushed forward, wielding various artifacts in an attempt to stop him. However, with just one wave of his sleeve, and the scale began glowing again, and its fearsome radiance made his pursuers rooted to their spot.
Those stunned did not have enough time to react before they were sent flying from the sky by an inexplicable force, which injured both their body and soul.
This scene stupefied and frightened those catching up behind them. However, a moment later, it attracted anger, murderous intents, and righteous indignations.
“How despicable! He’s still trying to kill them! Incorrigible!”
Everyone was incensed and displayed their divine abilities. A person even took out a Sacred Grade artifact to stop Qin Wuya from escaping.
“Gu Changge! You evil bastard!” Qin Wuya was in complete rage. His eyes were full of hatred. He merely wanted to shake off the group of cultivators and had no intentions of killing them.
Just now, it was clearly Gu Changge stirring the water behind the scene to frame him! Even now, Gu Changge did not miss a chance to drive him into a corner with no way out.
Gu Changge seemed as though he couldn’t hear him at all, and continued attacking Zhi Yang.
Qin Wuya looked at him with hatred but didn’t dare to stay any longer. A portal opened up in front him, and with a flash of his image, he was gone.
Right now, he could only hope that those experts from Purple Mansion would appear soon. Otherwise, Zhi Yang would be done for.
“It seems that we have arrived a step too late, he has already escaped.”
“But, Sky King Zhi Yang is still here. From the looks of his injuries, I doubt he will last for long.”
“But, Purple Mansion won’t allow him to die here…”
Multiple figures appeared in the sky, it was the King with Six Crown, the Phoenix Lady, and Ying Yu. They had arrived just in time to see Qin Wuya angrily roar before fleeing.
The last sentence carried a sigh, and was said by Ying Yu. She said it while looking into the distance.
Laying on the ground, Sky King Zhi Yang was drenched in blood. He was completely suppressed by Gu Changge and couldn’t move, and he was completely devoid of his usual high-spiritedness.
“How pitiful, even your Eldest Senior Brother has left you.” Gu Changge looked down at Sky King Zhi Yang, beneath his foot, and smiled. However, there were no emotions in his eyes, it was cold and still.
“Gu Changge, the heavens will get you one day…” Sky King Zhi Yang rebuked with a resolute expression and coughed up blood again. Knowing there was no meaning to beg for mercy, he refused to show any weakness.
“Well, I pray there will be such a day. Though, it remains to be seen if the heavens will get me or if it will be the other way around.” Gu Changge smiled serenely and stepped on Zhi Yang again, leaving none of his bones intact.
*Bang!* However, right at this moment, the purple mark between Zhi Yang’s brows, that had been tightly closed up until now, suddenly began glowing. Inside of it was his life-protecting artifact. It couldn’t be activated under normal circumstances, only when he was on the verge of dying.
The radiant purple light took the form of a seed.Iit floated in the air and was shrouded by purple mist.
“The Chaos Purple Qi Seed?” Gu Changge’s eyes widened as he was the first to recognize it.
Purple Mansion boasts a collection of artifacts. After its foundation, its history was undeniably tied to an object from a particular Ancestor of theirs, who had found this object from some mysterious location. It was an extremely enigmatic item.
[To think this was in his hands. No wonder Purple Mansion places so much importance to him.] Faced with the sudden appearance of the Chaos Purple Qi Seed, Gu Changge’s strategy was as simple as before. His colossal palm in the air circulated with runes, and looked as if it encompassed the universe and could suppress all.
The flow of air seemed to have slowed down, the Chaos Purple Qi Seed released terrifying might and made a resounding noise that echoed through heaven and earth.
From the deafening noise, those around had their expressions turned to alarm and fear. They found it hard to bear and quickly retreated back, a safe distance away.
“Purple Mansion’s Chaos Purple Qi Seed was actually in Sky King Zhi Yang’s possession. It appears that his Foreseeing Eye has something to do with it…” The King with Six Crown’s expression changed slightly as he noted the terrifying power. Before this, he had not been that interested in Zhi Yang. After all, if they were to fight, it seemed that Sky King Zhi Yang would suffer a considerable loss.
In the next moment, in front of the shocked cultivators, Gu Changge clenched his colossal palm and the essence of chaos and the various Daos seemed to appear in his hand. It gave off a brilliant radiance, and produced the rumbling of drums only heard of in heaven.
The Chaos Purple Qi Seed was trapped inside the hand, and was forcefully taken away.
Seeing this, Sky King Zhi Yang spat out blood again, unresignment and completely enraged.
“To think even the Chaos Purple Qi Seed can not win against Young Master Changge.”
“Isn’t he way too strong? Even ancient experts might not be Young Master Changge’s match!”
Those at site couldn’t help feeling shocked, as they felt the might of an insurmountable rival.
[After waiting for such a long time, they should have arrived by now. Otherwise, it would break away from the standard cliche.] At this time, Gu Changge noticed something. There was an unusual look in his eyes, he looked towards the horizon and he seemed to be smiling yet not. [Finally. I’ve waited so long for this.]
“Stop!” There was an angry yell, and a domineering and boundless pressure descended from the sky along with a flood of Purple Qi. It was as if to announce the arrival of a powerful expert.
Everyone looked over in surprise, and saw a Space Tunnel opened up by someone using unfathomable power. The figure carried the aura of a powerful expert and had entered everyone’s eyes. He was an old man wearing the usual Daoist robe, and he wore a solemn expression.
He coldly stared at Gu Changge, as he ordered him to cease his actions.
Behind him, more people from Purple Mansion appeared and they walked out from the Space Tunnel. Their faces were all cold and grim. These people were the main forces of Purple Mansion. Even the weakest one among them was in the Sacred Lord Realm and their leader was in the Sacred Emperor Realm.
After receiving Sky King Zhi Yang’s message for help, they rushed over as soon as they could. They even paid a big price to open a Space Tunnel in order to cross the large distance and arrive at this place.
Upon the arrival of these experts from Purple Mansion, everyone’s expressions changed, with a foreboding feeling. There was a deep sense of fear that stemmed from their souls. It was trembling and they couldn’t help wanting to kneel down.
The Sacred Emperor Realm master from Purple Mansion had appeared!
“Martial Uncle, save me!” Seeing him, Sky King Zhi Yang’s face revealed joy and hope. He immediately called out, as loud as he could, despite his shambled body. He held out for so long and finally, reinforcement had arrived.
“The Sacred Emperor Realm master from Purple Mansion …” Gu Xianer, who had been watching as Gu Changge, Zhi Yang, and Qin Wuya fought, finally showed a change in her expression. She gave Gu Changge a worried look.
At this time, Purple Mansion’s arrival meant the situation had turned. Now, no one knew how things would develop next. Normally, a feud between those in the same generation would not have those from the older generation meddle in it. However, today, Purple Mansion, in front of everyone, acted. They rushed over to this place and ordered Gu Changge to stop. This was undeniably a breach of the status quo.
She was clear that based on Gu Changge’s personality, he most likely had predicted this would happen. He had continued to provoke the experts from Purple Mansion, and had used Sky King Zhi Yang, by forcing him to ask for help from those backing him.
Regardless, today’s matter won’t end that easily. Purple Mansion’s Sacred Emperor Realm Master would not let them go easily. Similarly, this would not end with just a battle between those present. It was going to directly evolve into an all out Immortal War. Immortal forces were going to battle it out, and it was hard to describe in words what would happen!
An Immortal War would not be over until there was carnage as deep as the sea, enough to strike fear far and wide.
“It seems that your sect still cares quite a lot about you, even an expert in the Sacred Emperor Realm has come. But, it’s a pity, you think you’re saved? I’ve said it already. If Purple Mansion dares to get in my way, I’ll exterminate it too.” Gu Changge remained smiling as he looked at Sky King Zhi Yang.
But the words he said struck fear into Sky King Zhi Yang, making him shiver. [I already know you wouldn’t let me go so easily. But to exterminate Purple Mansion? Big words!]
At this moment, the old man in the sky noticed Sky King Zhi Yang’s pitiful condition. After hearing Gu Changge’s disrespectful words, his expression turned ugly.
If it weren’t for Gu Changge’s identity and backing, he would’ve already made a move to teach him a lesson. Even so, he couldn’t help yelling, face white from anger. “How despicable, Gu Changge. Despite being the greatest in your generation, your actions are so ruthless. You completely disregarded a fellow disciple of the True Immortal Academy and injured Zhi Yang so severely. Your behavior right now, how is it any different from the Successor of Demonic Arts?”
This sentence of his caused an uproar. The expressions of those from the Immortal Academy changed into shock. It seemed that Purple Mansion was determined to protect Sky King Zhi Yang.
Discerning people could tell that Sky King Zhi Yang was colluding with the Successor of Demonic Arts. He had not only harmed the Immortal Academy disciples, he even sent his so-called ‘Eldest Senior Brother’ to assassinate Purple Mansion’s Saintess, Zhi Yan.
After such outrageous behavior, Purple Mansion still chooses to pretend to be blind, and put itself against everyone.
Weren’t they just courting death?
Did Purple Mansion really have that much confidence and courage to be everyone’s enemy?
“My behavior is no different than the Successor of Demonic Arts? Then, I’ll ask Senior, how is Sky King Zhi Yang’s behavior any different? And what of Purple Mansion’s actions? This Junior is merely giving justice where it’s due, is that wrong?” Gu Changge lifted his head and looked at the old man, the corner of his mouth curved in a smile.
His words immediately caused a big stir. Those young prodigies present from the Immortal Academy all looked at the Sacred Emperor Realm Master from Purple Mansion and snickering, mockingly. Gu Changge had said exactly what was on their mind!
“You sure have a glib tongue for saying nonsense. How could Zhi Yang possibly have anything to do with the Successor of Demonic Arts, it must be the Successor of Demonic Arts framing him, mixing right and wrong to deceive everyone. Do you think just because you’re backed by the Immortal Gu Family, that no one would dare to touch you?” The old man didn’t expect Gu Changge to reply like that. His expression darkened and he couldn’t help yelling.
“Since it’s like this, it seems useless to speak any further. Purple Mansion seems intent on making an enemy of me.” Gu Changge did not say anything more, he merely smiled, making it hard for others to guess what was on his mind.
“An enemy of you? Junior, you view yourself too highly…” The old man sneered as if laughing at Gu Changge’s arrogance. However at the very next second, his sentence was cut short by Gu Changge.
He saw Gu Changge bringing down his foot with a tranquil expression.
Sky King Zhi Yang could only let out a muffled scream before his body exploded, blood splattering everywhere.
Gu Changge stretched his hand, and reached inside of Sky King Zhi Yang. As he was horrified and despairing, Gu Changge continued to dig out the extremely mysterious Chaos Dao Bone, being domineering to the extreme!
“Stop!” The old man was infuriated and his eyes nearly bulged out. He didn’t expect Gu Changge to be so ruthless, wanting to dig out Zhi Yang’s Chaos Dao Bone in front of everyone.
He directly sprang into action, his sleeves fluttered and there were gales of wind. It seemed to have been formed from the universe, capable of slicing anything.
The Sacred Emperor Realm divine might was unfathomable, and it pulled Gu Changge into it too.
*Bang!* At the very next moment, the Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers appeared, again exuding the force of the Sacred Emperor Realm. It was capable of overturning the mountains and rivers within millions of kilometers around it.
However, it still couldn’t compare to someone in the Sacred Emperor Realm. The artifact was covered by the old man’s palm and was sent flying backwards, ultimately crumbling to pieces.
Then, there was a loud sound. Terrifying cracks appeared on the ground, spreading tens of thousands of kilometers, making a frightful sight.
Everyone was shocked by this scene, even the King with Six Crown and the others were furrowing their brows, not daring to get too close.
This wrath of an expert in the Sacred Emperor Realm!
Moreover, he was a level above those who were in the Sacred Emperor Realm. At the very least, he was in the Third or Fourth-Order of the Sacred Emperor Realm, far surpassing the cultivators in this cultivation level!
However, what made people even more shocked was, facing such an attack, Gu Changge looked as relaxed as before, as if he had expected this. He just continued moving his hand inside Sky King Zhi Yang, intending to dig out his Chaos Dao Bone.
“I told you to stop!” The eyes of the old man nearly fell out, he didn’t expect Gu Changge to completely disregard him. This sort of contemptuous attitude made him so livid, he nearly went insane. After entering the Sacred Emperor Realm, no one had dared to disrespect him like this. Moreover, a Junior like him!
The other experts from Purple Mansion also had ugly expressions on their faces. It also didn’t sit well with them that their Sect’s Sacred Emperor Realm Master was being insulted like this.
At this moment, a middle-aged man stepped forward. He was tall and awe-inspiring. His eyes contained traces of Purple Qi. He was merely a step away from entering the Sacred King Realm.
His expression was solemn as he spoke while staring at Gu Changge. “Ancestor, let me teach that guy a lesson. I’ll also be doing a service for the Immortal Gu Family. Maybe then, he’ll finally learn some manners. It’s still unknown whether he can reach the Sacred Emperor Realm, but his arrogance is already higher than the sky.” They had gotten here in a hurry, and didn’t hear of Gu Changge’s display of strength, which had long surpassed the Sacred Lord Realm.
Seeing the Successor of Purple Mansion reduced to this miserable state, his heart was full of rage as well. Not sure how it was possible, but his rage only intensified when Gu Changge continued to show such a carefree attitude.
He was so enraged that even if others denounced him as someone strong bullying the weak, he didn’t care about it at this moment. After all, they’ve already offended Gu Changge, what more do they have to care about?
“Don’t injure him. Otherwise, it will be hard to explain to the Immortal Gu Family.” The old man nodded his head upon hearing him. In reality, his heart was also full of indignance. After all, the Successor of Purple Mansion was reduced to such a miserable state, and was even having his Chaos Dao Bone being dug out. As the Ancestor who supported Sky King Zhi Yang, how could he not be angry?
However, what made him feel strange was, on the faces of the Immortal Academy disciples around them. Besides shock in their eyes, there was also ridicule.
[It really turned out to be this brainless cliche… You know, you shouldn’t seek death like this.] He didn’t expect that at this time, there would be an expert from Purple Mansion coming forward to help recover Sky King Zhi Yang, and be so brainless.
He was so surprised that he was stunned for a moment. However, Gu Changge recovered quickly, and his expression was cold as he launched his palm over, the same as before. An attack as simple as ever.
*Rumble!* A terrifying fluctuation spread out, as if the sky had suddenly split apart.
Before the middle-aged man could recover from his shock, he was hit by the palm and half of his body was left in tatters.
If the old man hadn’t reacted in time and shielded him, that palm would’ve ended his life.
The other experts from Purple Mansion looked at this scene in shock, and cold sweat appeared on their backs. They almost couldn’t hold back defending themselves reflexively against the attack.
“Sacred Lord Realm…” The old man was also greatly taken aback. He stared at Gu Changge, and his eyes grew even colder. He didn’t expect his cultivation level to be so high. [No wonder Zhi Yang couldn’t resist him.]
[Even so, there’s no way out of this situation now. Even if we have to offend the Immortal Gu Family, we must protect Zhi Yang. That old Ancestor had given us the order!] Thinking up to here, he no longer hesitated. If he did not act, Sky King Zhi Yang would really die at Gu Changge’s hands today!
Sacred Emperor Realm might blasted out, which shook the world. It engulfed everything in an instant, as if forming a grinding stone that could destroy the world. It left everyone in shock, causing their souls to tremble. It felt as though they were facing heaven’s wrath. It wasn’t a force mere mortals could resist.
“It seems that I’ll have to trouble you, Aunt Qing.” Facing this strike, there wasn’t a single change in Gu Changge’s expression. He was smiling as before and was sizing up the Chaos Dao Bone in his hand. Furthermore, his words seemed to be for the empty space behind him.
*Woosh!* At the very next moment, there was a peerless sword light that was like moonlight, it appeared from the void, resplendent and beautiful, clear as jade, pure as snow, completely flawless.
There was a flash of a figure wearing azure robes, who had crossed over the void before disappearing again.
*Ching!*
The old man, who made a move, widened his eyes. Alarm and despair appeared in his eyes, as well as disbelief.
Shock reached the pinnacle in the eyes of those around. They saw blood spurt out from between the old man’s eye brow. There was a complete hole there, see through from back to front!
The old man’s Primordial Soul had been completely destroyed, without a sound! Both his body and soul had been destroyed!
All that was left was deathly silence. Until a voice was heard.
“Since that Purple Mansion Sacred Emperor Realm Master insists on being my enemy, then he has been killed to set an example for others.” Gu Changge looked at the pale faced Purple Mansion experts and sighed, as if he was feeling sorrowful.
The faces of the spectators were pale as sheets as well. They all realized that the Upper Realm was going to go through great changes after today.

Refresh my memory plz…who was Aunt Qing?
Noone mentioned. Family just assigned him a guardian and he rarely uses her.
