Following the fluctuation in the void, there was a terrifying aura like a raging tsunami, or more accurately, like the explosion of a galaxy, which was now falling upon the moral realm.

Numerous runes and Principles interweaved as the figure of a person stepped out. He made a domineering move, bringing about a icy, murderous aura; one filled with rage.

Around him were the countless Daos that he comprehended and controlled. They lingered around him, as if deferring to him, or, as if bowing down to him, full of reverence as if greeting a young and supreme god.

Then, the blast came out in all but an instant.

A large palm appeared abruptly and it seemed to hold fathomless strength, capable of suppressing everything. It fell from the sky and hit Sky King Zhi Yang, who was off guard.

Although Zhi Yang had reacted quickly, his expression changed in an instant. He wanted to resist but the strength contained in the palm was too much for him to withstand. Even if he was wearing a Sacred Lord Grade armor, he still found it difficult to withstand this strike.

He could only hold out for a moment, and in that moment, crack had already begun appearing on his armor. Eventually, shattering into glittering fragments. As for his flesh underneath, it was as though an egg had hit a rock. He was incomparably weak afterwards, with bones cracking as they broke into pieces. His five internal organs were all ruptured. There were wounds all over his body and he was even covered in blood, making him look hardly human.

Gu Changge! Seeing him, Sky King Zhi Yang let out a low and deep roar, full of fury. At the same time, he felt his heart being crushed by pain, as his face twisted into a knot. He was so livid that his face has transformed into something no different from a beast.

The whole sudden change of events was completely outside of his expectation. Gu Changge had suddenly appeared, and mercilessly launched such a destructive attack tantamount, inflicting grave injuries on him.

Without any other choice, his divine soul exited his body. He looked a glance at his tattered body and moved to one side, trying to hurriedly recreate another body from scratch.

Although Zhi Yang hated Gu Changge, he was also self-aware that he wasnt the others opponent. He feared he was unable to last until reinforcements from Purple Mansion arrived, and Gu Changge would take this chance to destroy both his body and soul.

In the sky, Gu Changge stood upright, robes fluttering. His eyes were cold and profound, but even more so, full of colds murderous intent.

Hearing Zhi Yang, Gu Changge didnt respond. He merely looked towards the side. Towards Gu Xianer, who was staring at him in a stupor as he let out a gentle sigh, Why are you so impulsive? Why didnt you tell me youve found out where he is?

Although he was holding her accountable for her mistake, there was concern and worry in his voice. Though, in actuality, before Gu Xianer had even reached this place, Gu Changge was already here. He just did not reveal himself as he was waiting for Qin Wuya to appear. He wanted to see what the two were plotting.

Thus, he had witnessed the entire process where Qin Wuya was attempting to win over Gu Xianer. They even showed all the cards they had for Gu Xianer, information on their previous lives, and how Sky King Zhi Yang had exposed his identity as the true Successor of Demonic Arts.

Gu Changge watched as it all happened, but he didnt stop them nor did he reveal himself.

Following after, Gu Xianers action surprised him a little. More than anything, he was a little stunned and couldnt help sighing. It was especially so when, after seeing the scene of her miserable future, Gu Xianer was still able to say she was willing, even if it were to be true.

This actually made Gu Changge fall silent for a moment. In fact, he didnt know what to say. [should I call her foolish or naive?]

Of course, he also had his own guesses. [What Zhi Yang saw was most likely what happened in Yue Mingkongs previous timeline. After all, I am only willing to go so far as to bully her. A bit of course. How could I possibly bear to hurt her like that?]

After hearing Gu Changges words, Gu Xianer didnt answer, rather, she stared at him and her usual cold eyes lost a bit of their light. She didnt even wipe the blood off the corner of her mouth.

Gu Changge, how did you find this place? At this time, it was Qin Wuyas voice that sounded out, full or trepidation, His figure flashed, reappearing beside Zhi Yang while guarding against Gu Changges next move.

[Im certain Gu Xianer hadnt sent any messages to him. So, how did he find this place? And how long has he been hiding?] This thought sent shivers down Qin Wuyas back. This meant that Gu Changge was listening to everything they said before, including the part about their origins and their relationship.

It was their biggest secret, which, besides each other, they had never told anyone else.

When they told Gu Xianer today, they already had a back up plan. If she didnt agree with them, they would forcefully subdue her and force her to drink the water from the Lake of Reincarnation. Thus, they werent worried at all. But now

Its all thanks to you. If you hadnt led the way for me, I wouldnt have been able to find this place. I have to really thank you. Gu Changge smiled perfunctorily. He landed on the ground and walked towards him leisurely. He knew what Qin Wuya was worried about, but Gu Changge didnt pay attention to it at all.

You left something to track me? Impossible, I checked thoroughly before, and didnt find anything. Qin Wuyas voice was heavy, in complete disbelief.

If even you could discover it, what would be the point? Gu Changge chuckled.

Qin Wuyas expression sank even more, he was certain now that Gu Changge mustve done something. [So, it turns out that he had let me go on purpose! He had used some kind of method unbeknownst to me, to place some kind of tracker on me. And, I had been none the wiser, and had led him here! There is no other explanation but this!]

Qin Wuya could feel a chill run down his spine.

Meanwhile, when Sky King Zhi Yang, who was recovering from his injuries, heard this, his complexion became pale as well. He never wouldve thought it would be his Eldest Senior Brother who had exposed their whereabouts.

Junior Brother, its my fault, I never thought I would end up leading Gu Changge here. Qin Wua gave Sky King Zhi Yan an apologetic look. If he had been a bit more cautious, Zhi Yang wouldnt have been heavily injured by Gu Changge. He didnt even know if they would be able to safely escape today.

Eldest Senior Brother, its not your fault. Gu Changge is the one that was too cunning. No one could have predicted this. Sky King Zhi Yang took a deep breath and calmed down. He had no intention to blame this on Qin Wuya.

Since it now came to this point, all they could do was to face Gu Channge.

*Buzz!* At the next moment, purple mist burst forth from every inch of his battered body. Naturally, it was not easy for Sky King Zhi Yang to use this secret technique. After all, it needed him to consume his own Source. Even so, he had no choice. He needed to recover to peak condition in the shortest amount of time, to have a chance against Gu Changge.

Soon, his complexion became much better. The mysterious fluctuation in his veins turned into enigmatic runes, which changed to form an unparalleled force.

Junior Brother Qin Wuyu recognized this secret technique and his expression became solemn. It was because this secret technique did not belong to this era. Rather, it was a secret technique of the Borderless Sect.

It was save for the most dire of situations. Otherwise, it wouldnt be used. Not only did it consume ones Source, it also consumed ones life force.

At a speed visible to the naked eye, Zhi Yang was aging rapidly. His head was full of white hair.

Eldest Senior Brother, its all right. Today, no matter what, Ill get rid of this incarnation of the devil! Not merely for Junior Sisters sake, but also for the sake of the world, the Successor of Demonic Arts must be exterminated! He is completely without conscience and has committed all sorts of evil. Sooner or later, hell get whats coming. Its just his time to face retribution. Sky King Zhi Yang was filled with a sense of righteousness. He also wore an extremely determined expression. His words were even more awe-inspiring and were full of inexplicable power.

At this time, even he didnt know why there was suddenly a trace of righteous aura from him. The only conclusion he could give was that there was a Righteous Path in this world, that would never allow such an evil being to continue committing evil, and become a disaster to the Nine Heavens.

Even now, youre still trying to frame me? Xianer might be a little dull, but youre looking down on her too much if you think a few words would be enough to instigate her. Gu Changge smiled faintly, he had already arrived by Gi Xianers side. He clearly didnt take Sky King Zhi Yangs words to heart at all.

Gu Changge Gu Xianer snapped back to reality, but continued to stare at him.

Gu Chengge gently wiped the blood off the corner of her mouth and looked at her, You only need to remember one thing. No matter present or future, I will never hurt you.

Hearing this, Gu Xianer was in a daze. She wanted to ask Gu Changge whether Sky King Zhi Yang And Qin Wuyas words were true, and if he really was the Successor of Demonic Arts. However, she didnt know how to ask. Nonetheless, she knew that what he said were not lies, and she trusted that he would not genuinely try to harm her.

What Sky King Zhi Yang had shown her, in her opinion, was meant to ruin her relationship with Gu Changge, which was why she was so angry before.

Junior Sister Xianer, please dont believe the nonsense he is sprouting. For the sake of stealing your Source, he would absolutely do anything. Sky King Zhi Yang snorted coldly. He was not as angry as before and had already calmed down. After all, Gu Xianer was already running on Gu Changge palm, she couldnt tell left from right anymore, and he could hardly blame Gu Xianer for it. Nonetheless, all the frustration and hatred he felt were all directed towards Gu Changge.

Junior Brother, theres no need to talk about this any longer. With you and I joining forces, it isnt completely hopeless. Qin Wuyas eyes were cold. He was very resolute, and without any hesitation, swift and fierce, he launched forth a powerful attack.

The injury he mentioned previously was naturally only a lie to deceive Gu Xianer. His body was in tip-top condition and he had not been hurt that night at all.

Runes appeared, brilliantly radiant. There were all sorts of World Principles congealing and interweaving to form something utterly terrifying.

You dont need to do anything, just leave them to me. Ill also find Qin Xiaoyi. Gu Changge looked at Gu Xianer, with a gaze that was slightly unusual of him.

Without waiting for her reply, his body flashed and reappeared in the sky, trading moves with Qin Wuya.

*Shing!* He lifted his hand and created a divine slash, full of radiance, tantamount to a sword aura cascading from heaven. It was swift, fierce, and all-powerful.

Following after, Zhi Yang also attacked Gu Changge without hesitation. His mighty purple aura was like a stream of stars, that overshadowed the sky and ran inexhaustibly. His runes rapidly morphed, transforming into myriads of godly weapons. Swords, spears, halberds, axes, they all pointed towards Gu Changge to face his attack.

*Bam!* The whole world shook. Horrifying sound of their clash screeched out and merely the aftershocks of it caused the mountain range to simultaneously collapse and turn into smithereens.

In that moment, the runes interweaved, and the mountains all around were shaking. Chains of Order crossed through space, giving the impression it could rip open the heaven. Following after, a golden mist appeared in the sky. Gu Change manifested his Dharma Body, and fathomless golden light poured down.

He was strong without equal. A large palm reached out, covering the entire sky, causing the area to burn up in an instant.

*Bang!* Qin Wuya was quite confident in his own abilities and attacked with the might of the Sacred Emperor Realm right off the bat, using an artifact. He had formed a divine mountain that was sturdy and majestic, a divine object from the Nine Realms.

However, when it met with Gu Changges palm, the divine mountain immediately crumbled after mere moments of resistance.

Qin Wuya bore the brunt of the aftershock and was sent flying while spitting blood.

It seems you were lying this whole time. You werent injured at all. He was in complete shock, the strength Gu Changge displayed was multiple times what he displayed that night in his palace compound. It was far, far stronger and more terrifying.

Why are you talking about my injuries? This is all just because youre far too weak. Gu Changge gave a willful smile, he walked in the air as though he was taking a leisurely stroll, full of grace.

The turbulent mist dispersed and another palm fell, hammering down condensed golden runes. It was like the palm of God, sending Sky King Zhi Yang flying and spewing blood. His body was nearly blown into bits. He tumbled to the ground and couldnt get up.

Sky King Zhi Yang had used a forbidden secret technique, but in front of Gu Changge, he couldnt withstand a single palm before he was covered in blood and his body was left in ruins.

He coughed up blood again, the red liquid was mixed with pieces of his internal organs, showing how serious his injuries were. His expression was ugly, he hurriedly took out scared herbs and pills and shoved them into his mouth and then his condition became better.

Eldest Senior Brother He didnt expect that the two of them together still werent Gu Changges match. [Didnt Eldest Senior Brother say he was 50% confident that he could beat Gu Changge?]

I didnt expect him to be this strong. Gu Changge truly hid it very well. Qin Wuya guessed what Zhi Yang was thinking and his expression became even heavier. He began to grow worried. Although he still had many cards up his sleeve, it did not ease his trepidation. Back when he wandered into the Nine Realm, he obtained many divine artifacts and learned many things. However, once he used those methods, there would likely be unimaginable consequences.

If people came to know about the existence of a Nine Realms artifact in the Upper Realm, his fate would be no better than the Successor of Demonic Arts.

Qin Wuya knew very well that a mans wealth could bring his own ruin.

Gu Changges expression was tranquil, he raised his hand again and the colossal palm cut through the air, falling once more.

Sky King Zhi Yang was sent flying against, and couldnt stop vomiting out blood. Head to toe, he was covered in wounds. His bones healed only to break again, and his internal organs were in shambles. He looked extremely pitiful.

At this point, even though he carried with him numerous herbs and pills, it was getting hard for him to recover. After all, Gu Changge did not give him the time to recover.

Gu Changge, stop! Qin Wuyas eyes were bulging and his face was full of fury. He tried to stop Gu Changge, but failed to find any openings. Thus, he tried using his strongest attack.

Gu Changge reciprocated in a simple manner, he summoned out the Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers. Its Sacred Emperor Realm aura crashed down, rendering Qin Wuya teeth-clenched, feeling completely helpless.

He tried all sorts of methods and still ended up coughing blood in the end.

Gritting his teeth, he took out an ancient treasure that glistened like driven snow. What appeared to be an ancient fish scale, which had many simplistic and mysterious ruins on its surface. The moment the scale appeared, space was split open and there was a brilliant light, like it was recreating the creature it once was.

*Dun!* Between heaven and earth, there was suddenly a strange sound. This scale was exceedingly strange, the runes on it seemed to have come to life as they began glowing.

At last, it formed a chimera with a dragons body and an oxs head. Its whole body was shrouded in purple mist, it faced the sky and let out a roar as if to shatter the sun and the moon.

Facing this sort of strength, even the Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers seemed to be affected.

Fearsome gusts of wind and the thundering of the Great Dao came from all directions, as ear-screeching agony capable of shattering ones soul rang out.

A creature from the Nine Realms?

Gu Changge looked at the scale with some interest. [That scale alone can contend against a Sacred Emperor Grade artifact. So, how strong must the beast be in its prime?]

However, he was still unperturbed. He took the Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers and assaulted Qin Wuya, while at the same time, attacked Zhi Yang.

Gu Changge didnt plan to kill Sky King Zhi Yang right now. He was still counting on those ancient fossils to come to his rescue. [Since those from Purple Mansion had yet to come, I cant let Sky King Zhi Yang die just yet.]

[Though, isnt it the cliche for an Elder to step in when his Young Master is about to die? Sky King Zhi Yang is almost dead, so why are those from Purple Mansion still not here? Are they seriously planning on abandoning him?] Gu Changge smiled lightly, ignoring Qin Wuya, who was behind him, fending off his Great Seal of Mountains and Rivers.

He brought down a palm again and this time, Sky King Zhi Yang was directly crushed under it.

Gu Changge! If you kill me, Purple Mansion will never let you off! Sky King Zhi Yang was covered in blood without a single intact bone. He couldnt help but shout with rage, he was at the peak of fear right now. He was scared that he would really be killed by Gu Changge.

You colluded with the Successor of Demonic Arts to harm the disciples of the Immortal Academy. You then conspired with your so-called Eldest Senior Brother to kill Saintess Zhi Yan, and tried to shift the blame onto me. Will you still try and find excuses, even now? If Purple Mansion dares to shelter you, I ought to exterminate them too.

Gu Changge, youre full of crap! Sky King Zhi Yang angrily cursed. His entire body was shining right now and looked very transparent.

A turbulent mass of purple mist tried attacking Gu Changge. However, the gap in strength between them was simply too big. No matter how extraordinary his Chaos Bone was, it couldnt contend against the resplendent rainbow-colored light circulated by Gu Changges peerless Principles.

Zhi Yang was sent flying while spitting blood, and was pressed into the ground by Gu Changge.

Afterward, the traces of the battle were released, and all sorts of divine lights illuminated the sky. They instantly attracted everyone in the distance.

Divine rainbows flashed through the sky and poured into the place, making it seemed like something important was happening there that shouldnt be missed.

The disciples of the Immortal Academy rushed over. Be it as divine rainbows, on artifacts or mounts, they feared they would miss the show.

Its Sky King Zhi Yang!

Young Master Changge found Sky King Zhi Yang and they two of them are fighting!

Many soon arrived and after a quick glance of the scene from afar, they couldnt help shout with shock and excitement.

Those behind them, who heard this, got excited as well. They rushed to catch up, wishing to personally witness it themselves.

The King with Six Crowns, the Phoenix Lady, and Ying Yu, who had been waiting outside the mountain range, heard this and their expressions changed. They also hurried over.

This is bad! Our base has been compromised! Seeing this, Qin Wuyas expression changed again. He was busy battling the Sacred Emperor Grade Artifact, and hadnt been paying attention to concealment runes. He didnt know when it had been broken. But, regardless, the bright sky had been completely exposed to them, and their battle had attracted all the cultivators from afar.

Nonetheless, there was one thing he was certain of, this was Gu Changges doing.

[Not only does he want to expose our location, he also wants to make killing Zhi Yang into a show, in the name of justice, in front of everyone! How ruthless!] Qin Wuya couldnt hold back his shivering.
