Chapter 656: The last remaining worth, Xianer’s trace
The Great Yu Immortal Dynasty was in complete chaos, since many princes and princesses, as well as important officials and their family members were attacked and killed by a.s.sa.s.sins.
Beacons were lit everywhere in the territory, and murderous intentions arose from all directions. Some feudal lords from all over the town began to take sides, trying to establish a state within a state.
As an Immortal dynasty that lasted from the ancient era to the present, the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty produced Immortal figures who were Immortal. Its territory was even more vast and boundless. There were too many feudal lords bestowed on normal days.
Now in the imperial capital of Great Yu, disasters were rampant everywhere. Emperor Yu was so busy every day that even if he wanted to send an army to suppress it, it would be beyond his reach.
The feudal lords from all over the dynasty also saw this situation and felt that Great Yu had encountered an unprecedented disaster and was on the verge of falling apart. Only then did they cut themselves from all sides, trying to fish in troubled waters.
“My lord, I have followed your orders and ordered to have the rebels from all over the place killed. I will make Emperor Yu abdicate in the name of clearing up the chaos. If he refuses to give way, I will fight him in the imperial capital. I am eighty percent sure that I can kill him.”
In Great Yu Imperial Capital, in a quiet courtyard. Gu Changge stood under an ancient tree with falling red mulberry leaves and nodded slightly.
He was dressed in white, like snow, tall and slender, with ink-like hair, radiating brilliance, transcendent and refined, surrounded by vague three thousand worlds, faintly standing in a legendary Immortal Realm.
In front of him, Yu Tianzheng reported respectfully, with respect and fear deep in his eyes. Now, he finally understood how terrifying Gu Changge’s methods were.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed that Gu Changge was safe and sound. It was by no means that his origin was injured. He didn’t even seem seriously injured as rumored by the outside world.
That was to say, the injury suffered by the Will of Heaven, and the serious injury in order to help the eldest princess Yu Feiya were also fake. Even in Yu Tianzheng’s view, the destruction of the so-called Lower Realm might have been caused by Gu Changge.
Just thinking about it made him feel extreme fear and shudder.
“Are you really 80% sure to win against Emperor Yu?” Gu Changge’s gaze was flat, looking at the falling mulberry leaves he glanced at Yu Tianzheng before asking.
“Reporting to my lord, I know Emperor Yu very well, and I know very well what methods he can use. I’m 80% sure about this battle.”
Yu Tianzheng solemnly a.s.sured upon hearing the words.
In his original plan, he planned to sneak into the capital of Emperor Yu and a.s.sa.s.sinate Emperor Yu. But after Gu Changge found out, he asked him to give up the plan. From Gu Changge’s point of view, Great Yu’s imperial capital absolutely had many crouching tigers and hidden dragons, especially in the palace.
Emperor Yu had been in charge of the imperial palace for many years, and he absolutely understood and controlled the many restraining methods in it. What was more, the imperial palace was close to Great Yu’s forbidden area.
If there was a battle there, it was impossible not to disturb the many ancient existences sleeping in it. The chance of a successful a.s.sa.s.sination was very small and almost slim.
Therefore, instead of a.s.sa.s.sinating Emperor Yu, it was better to take advantage of the chaos, in the name of helping the world to set things right.
In this way, even the ancient beings of Great Yu wouldn’t stop them, and they wouldn’t mind.
“In my opinion, your eighty percent certainty is only ten percent,” Gu Changge shook his head lightly, looking up and down at Yu Tianzheng before adding.
In terms of cultivation, Yu Tianzheng was indeed stronger than Emperor Yu. But in terms of means, as well as the right time, place, and people, the two were not on the same level at all.
“My lord, I…” Yu Tianzheng was taken aback for a moment, not understanding why Gu Changge would say that and why he had only a 10% chance of winning against the current Emperor Yu. However, he did not dare to question Gu Changge’s judgment. In terms of strength, it was easier for Gu Changge to kill him than to crush an ant.
“I will give you a secret technique that will allow you to kill him in a duel with Emperor Yu in a few days.” Gu Changge glanced at Yu Tianzheng casually, without any intention of explaining too much.
Then with a finger point, a dim light emerged. There were many simple and mysterious runes flickering as it turned into a brilliance, grazing directly into Yu Tianzheng’s eyebrows.
Suddenly, an extremely obscure, ancient, and terrifying scripture full of demonic power appeared in his mind. Every word was as bright as a divine star, shining bright and dazzling brilliance, reflecting and washing the eternal sky.
In a trance, Yu Tianzheng saw the boundless demonic energy emerge, vast and endless, flooding the Heaven and the Earth. He was extremely astonished, he felt trembling, and felt a great sense of fear, as if his soul had been swallowed up by this scripture.
“Thank you, my lord.” Yu Tianzheng’s forehead was covered with cold sweat. His mind felt chaotic and it was hard to calm down as there was incomparable turmoil.
He understood that this scripture was absolutely terrifying and its origin was unimaginable, so he didn’t dare to be negligent, and hurriedly expressed his grat.i.tude in a respectful voice. Since it was provided by Gu Changge, it could not be simple.
He had a deeper grasp of the life-and-death battle with Emperor Yu in a few days.
After Yu Tianzheng left, Gu Changge looked away with a thoughtful expression.
“The secret method bestowed by Young Master is probably not that simple, right?” At this time, a soft, charming voice sounded from the side.
A woman in white quietly hugged her nine soft and fluffy fox tails and stood behind Gu Changge. A little doubtful expression appeared on her face. She was tall and slender, with a fair face, delicate and white complexion. Her sparkling eyes emanated with a bewitching beauty, shocking others.
It was Yin Mei, the Heavenly Maiden of the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox clan who came here after learning that Gu Changge had returned to the Upper Realm.
“It’s just over-drafting his remaining life in advance, but for him, this is enough. This is the last value he can give me.” Gu Changge shook his head lightly.
“My lord, you are as cold-blooded and ruthless as ever…” Yin Mei pursed her lips and smiled, not surprised.
She didn’t think that Yu Tianzheng could bring much value to Gu Changge.
“It’s not cold-blooded, it’s just recycling. To control Great Yu, I just need such a suitable chess piece. Yu Tianzheng has ambition and skill, but he lacks luck. And the part of luck he lacks, I can just give him.”
Gu Changge smiled and stretched out his hand to take her into his arms. In front of his own woman, he would not hide this kind of thing.
“I understand, then I will arrange for people from the business alliance to take over the business roads in various parts of Great Yu…”
Yin Mei tilted her head, her glittering eyes fixed on his face, showing admiration and reverence, she said, “Young Master, the harvest does not seem to be small this time, I feel that if the Remnant Immortal of various Immortal forces are still present in the world. I’m afraid they are not your opponent anymore.”
This was her intuitive feeling. Although she had never seen Gu Changge make a real move, guessing from what happened in the Jianxuan Great World, she could guess a thing or two.
Gu Changge’s palm landed on her beautiful cloud-like hair, and he smiled, noncommittal.
“By the way, my lord, during this time, Miss Xian’er seems to have disappeared, and no trace of her has been seen anywhere in the Upper Realm…”
Afterward, Yin Mei seemed to have remembered something, and suddenly said with a worried face.
