Chapter 320: Its just the tip of the iceberg, in fact, you misunderstood
Hearing this, Ji Qingxuan didn"t have time to wipe off the ink smeared on her face by Gu Changge, and hurriedly got up and went to make tea. She had asked Gu Changge before if he wanted her to prepare something in advance, after all, he was inviting her to come over for tea.
If he didn"t even have tea when she came, wouldn"t he seem to look down on them too much? But Gu Changge just waved his hand and said that he didn"t need it, drinking tea or something was not important.
Ji Qingxuan didn"t care too much. She guessed that the Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion might not be able to leave this place today. Even if she could get out, they would probably have to pay a terrible price.
"Zi Yan greets Young Master Changge."
Liu Zi Yan"s expression was ugly at the beginning when she entered the palace, but she soon recovered her calmness and greeted Gu Changge. When she came here, she thought about Gu Changge"s many ways to make things difficult.
But she didn"t expect him to be like this, even though the tea was freshly boiled, and there was no preparation at all. Such a contemptuous att.i.tude made Liu Zi Yan very angry. But she still had to hold back and smile politely in return.
He was even too lazy to prepare something for the Banquet, this Gu Changge is really strong and arrogant, exactly the same as the previous rumors.
Liu Zi Yan thought so in her heart and calmed herself down. If there was a real conflict, she would definitely not be Gu Changge"s opponent.
Even though Gu Changge was injured.
For the rest of the geniuses, even if Gu Changge was in such a state, he was still an unmatched terrifying mountain.
"Greetings Young Master Changge!"
The many disciples of Purple Mansion behind Liu Zi Yan were also extremely nervous and uneasy at this moment and greeted Gu Changge with great fear. Although Gu Changge in front of him looked harmless, he even had an extraordinary demeanor and was not like a mortal person.
But the shadow of a man.
Only when you really face him could you feel the terrifying pressure and heart palpitations.
"Take the rest of the disciples to another place to entertain them. I have something to talk about with Holy Maiden Zi Yan."
"However… I really didn"t expect that the Holy Maiden Zi Yang would come so quickly, Qingge, I knew that this girl was lazy, and I even asked her to go to prepare the tea earlier, but she just didn"t go… Well, I’ll have to teach her a lesson in time."
"I hope that Lady Zi Yan will not take offense to my poor reception."
Gu Changge smiled very casually, instructed w.a.n.g Zhong at the entrance of the hall, and then he got up and walked down.
When Ji Qingxuan, who was not far away, heard this, she just wanted to roll her eyes in her heart. She knew how to be lazy all day, and she was so diligent. She really appreciated Gu Changge"s method of throwing the blame with ease.
"Young Master Changge is joking, this sweet girl is honored to see the true face of Young Master Changge."
"To be able to drink tea with the young master Changge is really a blessing for Zi Yan, which is something that countless girls can only envy."
Hearing this, Liu Zi Yan"s heart skipped a beat. But she was still forcing herself to remain calm, she replied with such a smile like watertight. She didn"t believe that Gu Changge was so bold and dared to do anything to her at will.
Even if he had a grudge against Zi Yang Heavenly King, it was impossible for him to vent his anger on her. If something happened to her here, Gu Changge wouldn"t be able to escape the responsibility.
After all, many cultivators saw her coming to Gu Changge"s side with their own eyes.
"Holy Maiden…"
Many disciples of Purple Mansion looked at Liu Zi Yan with worried expressions.
If they were taken away, it would take them a while to take action if something happened to her. Their support would be too late.
"Could it be that you can"t even trust the character of Young Master Changge?" Liu Zi Yan said lightly.
The implication was if something happened to her. Gu Changge was inseparable from this matter, so they could rest a.s.sured. As for character, from the rumors, Gu Changge"s character was not very good.
Hearing this, the disciples of the Purple Mansion couldn"t help but feel relieved and asked w.a.n.g Zhong to take them away.
Although Gu Changge was talking about hospitality, none of the people present were idiots, and they all understood that it was actually house arrest.
Now the entire Ancient Xuanwu Kingdom was under the control of Gu Changge, although the place he chose for the trial at that time was the Vermillion Bird Ancient Kingdom. But as soon as Zi Yang Heavenly King disappeared, the Six Crown King was low-key and mysterious and did not like to fight for power. As a result, no one in the Ancient Xuanwu Kingdom dared to disobey Gu Changge"s words, even if they were disciples of Purple Mansion.
Now Gu Changge wanted to place them under house arrest.
Even if the Elders of the True Immortal Academy knew about it, they would not dare to say anymore, instead, they would turn a blind eye.
"It seems that Holy Maiden Zi Yan has misunderstood Gu a little bit, she is so vigilant and suspicious of my good intentions…"
Gu Changge shook his head and smiled helplessly, then pointed to the seat in front of him and motioned for Liu Zi Yan to take the seat.
Liu Zi Yan nodded and sat down, naturally not believing Gu Changge"s words.
She was not a three-year-old child, she had her own set of standards for right and wrong, let alone judging whether a person was good or bad.
Suddenly, she looked at the chessboard not far away and asked curiously, "Does Young Master Changge also like to play chess?"
She had dabbled in chess, and although she couldn"t be called over by every one, she had a good vision. Black and white were distinct and crisscrossed. From this simple chessboard, one could actually glimpse heaven and earth, and many mysteries.
One could even see the cultivation level of the person who fell on the chessboard.
In a trance, she actually saw the chessboard come alive, black and white, suddenly rising into the sky, like a sea dragon breaking out of the water, the strong wind turned black and white, and it soared up to 90,000 miles.
Darkness and light combined into chaos, and chaos opened up and separated heaven and earth.
Every chess piece on it had become blurred, as if it had been transformed into a living being, transformed into various Dao forces, transformed into Ancient Supremes, transformed into Supreme Master…
"Take all beings and spirits as chess…"
In Liu Zi Yan"s heart, her voice trembled slightly. At this moment, she couldn"t find any more words to describe her mood other than the stormy waves.
Unfathomable.
It was only the tip of the iceberg.
Everything he had shown now was like the tip of the iceberg above, how much was hidden under it? No one knew this except Gu Changge.
This made Liu Zi Yan"s mind unable to calm down for a while, and she never expected to see such a scene today. Gu Changge looked at her expression and vaguely guessed everything she saw.
But he didn"t care, he just smiled and said, "It"s not like I like it, I"m just bored to pa.s.s the time. After all, I"m seriously injured now, so I can only stay in the palace honestly, and I can"t go anywhere."
Liu Zi Yan looked at him deeply, and then sighed, "I wonder why young master Changge invited me here?"
She had already made up her mind, not to offend Gu Changge. This was not a matter of intuition, but the sight she saw on the chessboard just now made her feel a bone-chilling fear.
It seemed to have touched some terrifying secret. How deep was this hidden, so that there was such a grand spirit, using heaven and earth as a chess piece?
Even those who had become enlightened did not dare to be like Gu Changge, and didn’t have such courage.
"I just wanted to invite the Holy Maiden Zi Yan to come to drink tea, why can"t you believe me?"
Gu Changge smiled helplessly, his eyes were calm and indifferent, giving people a very rea.s.suring feeling.
"Master, the tea is ready!"
At this time, Ji Qingxuan also came up with tea, steaming hot, boiled with 8 million years old tree heart spring, fragrant and incomparably rich.
The tea leaves were like the ancient tea of enlightenment, with all kinds of divinities hanging down, and the rhythm of the Dao was flowing, but they were not the same, and there was a big gap.
Some were shaped like ancient bells, and with a slight trembling, the bells would ring out, and some were like a big cauldron, a sword, an ancient seal…
The five-color divine light shone around the tea water as if a divine weapon had been opened in the void.
Axes, forks, swords and whips, everything… All kinds of divine weapons were all in illusion as if they were about to emerge solidly, with clanging noises, and surging treasures.
"This tea is really strange."
Liu Zi Yan was a little stunned for the first time. As a saint of Purple Mansion, she had seen a lot of things.
But this was the first time she had seen such tea, let alone the preciousness of the tea, she had never seen these rare tea leaves. She really learned a lot today.
For a while, she was a little confused about Gu Changge"s purpose. Did he really invite her to come over for tea? But seeing how arrogant the att.i.tude of the servants and followers sent by Gu Changge before was, she couldn’t be sure.
Comparing the two, Liu Zi Yan felt that it was likely that his people were used to being arrogant and domineering. After all, with the ident.i.ty of Gu Changge"s followers, who would dare to provoke them easily?
"This is an unnamed ancient tea that I planted and cultivated myself. I used the branches of the ancient tea tree to enlighten the Dao and then grafted the branches and leaves of other ancient teas. Finally, I came up with such a different thing…"
Gu Changge smiled warmly and spoke elegantly, and then took the initiative to introduce the tea to Liu Zi Yan.
Of course, these words must be nonsense, and he had a lot of interest in drinking tea. But planting and cultivating ancient tea was too troublesome. Gu Changge still liked the process of picking the final fruit directly.
This unknown ancient tea was exchanged by him from the system mall. As for the purpose, it only served as an introduction.
"I see, I didn"t expect the young master Changge to be so leisurely… However, being able to think of this method to cultivate ancient tea is really admirable for Zi Yan."
Liu Zi Yan"s eyes were a bit strange, these words were from the bottom of heart, very sincere, and were not flattering.
She herself was not very interested in cultivation. Compared with other hobbies, such as piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, tea art, dancing, etc., she had studied them more thoroughly.
She knew a lot of ancient teas in this world, so she could better judge whether Gu Changge"s words were true or not. She really did not expect that Gu Changge had such a profound insight into the art of cultivating tea.
"It seems that the Holy Maiden Zi Yan is also a person who understands tea."
"Please!"
Gu Changge smiled slightly, then motioned Ji Qingxuan to fill it up, and at this time he also stated his intentions.
"Actually, there is another thing I invited Holy Maiden Zi Yan for."
At this time, even if Gu Changge didn"t say anything, Liu Zi Yan actually knew what he was talking about. She smiled bitterly and said, "I know that Young Master Changge is looking for the traces of Heavenly King Zi Yang, but in fact, even I can"t contact him."
"I informed him about something more than half a month ago, but until now, there has been no reply about him. If Heavenly King Zi Yang is really related to the inheritor of demonic art, I will definitely not be merciful."
"Oh? Is that what Holy Maiden Zi Yan said? However, you seem to have misunderstood."
However, what Gu Changge said in the next moment made Liu Zi Yan"s expression stiff, and she was a little surprised.
Didn"t Gu Changge intend to inquire about Zi Yang Heavenly King"s clues and traces from her? Did she misunderstand?
