Chapter 606: In half a month, Plan to set up a big net
There was dead silence within the dungeon, only the deep area one would sound with some low-pitched roars from time to time. It was as if some kind of terrifying beast was imprisoned, making people feel horrified.
In this world, all the laws and order were sealed, and it was difficult for even Enlightened beings to find abnormalities.
Gu Changge grabbed Tuoba Xiaoyao’s throat with one hand, regardless of his pale appearance due to suffocation, his expression seemed a little thoughtful. It was still unknown whether Xiao Ruoyin, the Prophet of Destiny, could use Tuoba Xiaoyao as a material to refine the Heavenly Sword.
Before that, Tuoba Xiaoyao’s words made Gu Changge suspicious. If Tuoba Xiaoyao had just a simple rebirth, why was he so sure that there was no solution in the current Upper Realm?
“It seems that you still have a lot of secrets hidden in you.” Gu Changge’s eyes were dark, staring at Tuoba Xiaoyao’s eyebrows, trying to gain insight into his spirit.
But at this moment, he seemed to be aware of the crisis.
Buzz!!
Dazzling brilliance diffused out like a red glow, and Tuoba’s forehead shone brightly. One could even see blood flowing.
A palm-sized sword talisman floated out. It was less than an inch long, but exuded a dazzling sword intent, buzzing like a divine sword about to be unsheathed and capable of cutting through everything.
“It turns out that the Heavenly Sword and primordial spirit have been cultivated into a sword embryo.”
After taking a closer look, Gu Changge recognized this object. As it was tainted with the breath of Tuoba Xiaoyao’s life.
At the same time, there was also the unique brand of the Heavenly Sword. If he forcibly searched for the soul, it would definitely destroy the sword embryo, thus damaging the Heavenly Sword.
“You should be able to believe me by now?”
Although Tuoba Xiaoyao’s face turned pale, there was still an expression of unyielding and unwillingness in the depths of his eyes.
Gu Changge let go of the hand that was holding his throat, and said lightly, “I don’t care how you did all this, but if you can’t hand over the Heavenly Sword within half a month, no matter if it’s Yu Feiya or your brother and sisters, they will pay the heavy price you deserve.”
As he said before, even if there was no way, Tuoba Xiaoyao had to find a way. Who told him to choose such a dead end at the beginning? Wasn’t he just reaping the consequences of his actions himself?
If after half a month, he still couldn’t get the Heavenly Sword, Gu Changge would naturally have to resort to other means. And this half a month was exactly the time when Xiao Ruoyin could come here.
“Half a month?” Tuoba Xiaoyao’s complexion changed. Gu Changge only gave him half a month, how could he find a way to break this technique?
But he also understood that this was the deadline Gu Changge provided him. If he still couldn’t hand over the Heavenly Sword after half a month, then whether it was Yu Feiya, Tuoba Qiongling, Tuoba Qingyu, etc., they would probably pay a heavy price for his actions.
“I see.” Seeing that Gu Changge didn’t intend to say anything more to him, Tuoba Xiaoyao saw him turn around and step into the void.
He was silent for a moment before he breathed a sigh of relief and touched his neck which was almost broken. The feeling of facing death was still there, making his back wet with cold sweat.
If he hadn’t cultivated Heavenly Sword and Primordial Spirit as one, Gu Changge might have searched his soul to find out the secret of his rebirth and reincarnation just now.
Although Gu Changge gave him half a month, it also included the time when he was imprisoned in the prison by Emperor Yu. So after careful calculation, there was not much time left for him.
Revenge? This was an unattainable luxury.
On the other side, after Gu Changge returned to the palace, he sent someone to call the man with the scar from the hunting conference that day.
The scarred man’s name was Song Ye, and he was a sequence seed cultivated by the Spring Breeze Pavillion. He had the strength to kill all young supremes and was proficient in disguise, absconding, and a.s.sa.s.sination.
That day, under the heaven and earth net arranged by Emperor Yu, he also escaped safely. Using a different face he hid in the capital of Emperor Yu.
“Greetings, Young Master.”
Soon, Song Ye rushed over. He now looked like a weak scholar with a fair and weak face, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness. He appeared extremely respectful in front of Gu Changge.
As the a.s.sa.s.sin sequence of the Spring Breeze Pavillion, he was qualified to contact the top management, so he naturally knew that the master behind the current Spring Breeze Pavillion was actually Gu Changge.
In other words, Gu Changge was actually the real master behind the scenes of the Spring Breeze Pavillion.
“Go and arrest that Fourth Miss from Tuoba Mansion.” Gu Changge ordered lightly.
Although he had already given Tuoba Xiaoyao half a month, there was still a threat that he should have, so Tuoba Xiaoyao should not worry about the rest of his thoughts.
“Yes, my lord.” Song Ye replied with a nod, not daring to ask the reason.
The Great Yu imperial capital was known as a net of heaven and earth, with strict defenses, not to mention one sentry at five steps, and one post at ten steps, it was almost the same.
Yet as the serial seed of the Spring Breeze Pavillion, he was sure that he could take Tuoba Qingyu away without anyone knowing it. After seeing Song Ye leave, Gu Changge fell into thought again.
He wasn’t worried about Tuoba Xiaoyao warning Tuoba Qingyu and the others in advance, making Tuoba family wary, he was just thinking about the next plan.
The ripening time of the Dao fruit of the Epoch Tree was approaching soon, but he hadn’t laid out this big net before that. Needless to say the allure and temptation to become Immortal, even he couldn’t avoid it, let alone other people.
It was just that there was still a lack of a place to arrange this big net. Gu Changge considered manifesting his Inner Universe as a place to hide it. But in terms of the current level of the Inner Universe, it was still not stable. It was not up to the level that Gu Changge had expected, so he planned to refine part of the origin of Absolute Heavenly Extinction to evolve the Inner Universe, and then consider this matter.
What needed to be considered before this was the matter of Seven Heavenly Artifacts and the Secret Treasure of the Immortal Palace. His strength had now reached a bottleneck, and it was difficult to break through.
It had been a few days since Tuoba Xiaoyao was imprisoned, and the entire Great Yu Imperial City had gradually calmed down.
Under Emperor Yu’s deliberate arrangement, the confinement of eldest princess Yu Feiya was lifted as she accompanied prince Jia Luo of the Absolute Heavenly Imperial Court to walk around a few times, in the name of getting to know each other.
However, Emperor Yu was still very tight-lipped and did not mention whether he would agree to the marriage plan. There were even various speculations and rumors among the ministers.
Some people thought that Emperor Yu still hadn’t given up and was still playing with Gu Changge. If Gu Changge displayed a little bit of interest in Yu Feiya, he would definitely abandon Absolute Heavenly Prince Jia Luo without hesitation. However, during the days Gu Changge was temporarily living in the Great Yu Dynasty, he lived in a simple way.
Even if many princes wanted to see him, it was very difficult, not to mention other ministers. Many people also noticed that the prince of the Absolute Heavenly Imperial Court often visited Gu Changge, and they had no way of knowing whether they saw anyone or not.
In the past few days, a small incident also happened in the Imperial Capital of Great Yu.
One day, Tuoba Qingyu, the fourth lady of the Tuoba mansion, suddenly disappeared. Several maids who were in charge of serving her also died tragically in the mansion without a sound.
Many guards patrolling outside did not perceive all this.
Tuoba Yuntian had just experienced being neglected and alienated by Emperor Yu, his temples were graying, his face was full of sorrow, and his fourth daughter was kidnapped in the mansion, which almost made him pa.s.s out.
Many people suspected that it was the scarred man from the hunting conference. His behavior could be described as daring. However, no one witnessed all of this, and it was even more difficult to find any traces. In addition, Tuoba Mansion was neglected by Emperor Yu, and very few people paid attention to this matter.
And after these few days, Emperor Yu’s anger at the banquet had almost dissipated.
Thinking of Tuoba Yuntian’s many contributions in the early years, now that his daughter had been taken captive, depressed and unhappy, he couldn’t bear it, so he ordered the release of Tuoba Xiaoyao.
Originally, he was a little interested in the secrets of Tuoba Xiaoyao, but after experiencing this incident, he still felt a little sympathetic so he didn’t make things difficult for him anymore.
Of course, part of the relationship was that Emperor Yu had seen Yu Feiya’s expression being a little unhappy these days. His heart was a little soft, and he felt a little guilty towards her.
“Qingyu was taken away from the mansion?”
After leaving the prison where the sky was never seen, and finally returning to the mansion, Tuoba Xiaoyao learned the news. His whole face quickly became gloomy and ugly. His elder brother was still at the border and had not yet returned home.
Only the depressed father and second sister Tuoba Qiongling were the ones in the family. The elders of the clan didn’t care about this matter at all.
“Alas, I don’t want to restore my family right now, as long as you guys are safe.” Tuoba Yuntian had a lot of things he wanted to say to Tuoba Xiaoyao, but at this moment he just let out a long sigh, with a helpless expression on his face.
Tuoba Xiaoyao clenched his fists and remained silent. In fact, he already guessed in his heart who was behind it.
“Third Brother…” Tuoba Qiongling actually had guessed in her heart, she couldn’t help looking at Tuoba Xiaoyao, and asked with her eyes.
“Father, don’t worry, second sister will be fine.” Tuoba Xiaoyao said in a deep voice.
