Chapter 498-2: This is the Heavenly Lu City that they wanted to protect? People are treacherous (2)
Gu Changge’s eyes showed a little deep meaning, he stretched out his sleeves, and then a misty light appeared in front of him.
In the distance, Heavenly Lu City, in front of him and Heavenly Maiden Tianlu, suddenly changed their appearance. Originally, at night, there were billions of stars pouring down and endless rays of light rising.
Big stars surrounded it like dust, like cl.u.s.ters of bright nebulae, extremely magnificent and magnificent. But now, it could be seen that there was a gloomy aura in it that was constantly growing.
At the same time, it was constantly eating away the rest of the aura, making people feel that the entire Heavenly Lu City was decaying.
“This is!”
Heavenly Maiden Tianlu didn’t notice this before, but when she saw it now, she couldn’t help being surprised, a little unbelievable.
“Why is there an aura of death in Heavenly Lu City? Is it because of the invasion of the Upper Realm? There have been several attacks from the Upper Realm before, but this has never happened before. Could it be different?”
She was very puzzled and frowned slightly.
“Based on what you know about the group of powerhouses from the Eight Desolations and Ten Regions, what do you think they will choose at this time? A b.l.o.o.d.y battle with the Upper Realm to the end, or abandon the city and flee?”
Gu Changge stretched out his hand and gently smoothed the hair on her forehead as he said lightly, “Or, what confidence do they have until now?”
“Confidence?”
Heavenly Maiden Tianlu shook her head, if she had, she would not have chosen to surrender in such a way.
In any case, the current Heavenly Lu City was already facing the most critical moment.
It was the choices of those Enlightened beings that made her feel a little uneasy. If it really came to this point, it was obvious that they would not think too much about defending themselves and abandoning the city. This possibility made her unable to hold back a sigh.
“If we talk about the secret of Heavenly Lu City, it can only be the place of rebirth. However, there are corpses of the powerhouses who died in battles with the Upper Realm in the past buried. Thinking that one day, they will be able to recover by reincarnation.”
Then, Heavenly Maiden Tianlu thought for a while and thought of something. As the patron saint of Heavenly Lu City, she naturally knew the mysterious place of death. However, she seldom went to it for fear of disturbing the heroic spirits of the powerhouses who died in battle. Therefore, she didn’t know much about the place of death.
“The place of death? Is there such a relationship?” Gu Changge raised his eyebrows slightly.
He felt that the sudden aura of death might just be from this so-called place of death. It seemed that there was a reason why Heavenly Lu City was built here, and after destroying the city, he wanted to explore this place of rebirth.
Buzz!!
But at this moment, there was a sudden fluctuation in the void behind Gu Changge and Heavenly Maiden Tianlu. Both of them were very powerful, and they felt it almost instantly, but Gu Changge was not surprised.
On the contrary, Heavenly Maiden Tianlu’s eyes were rather vigilant, she felt the terror of this aura, and she was suppressed almost instantly.
“Greetings, Eighteenth ancestor.”
A faint smile appeared on Gu Changge’s face, and he spoke in the direction of the fluctuation.
Gu Lang’s figure manifested, different from today’s heroic image, he was no different from an ordinary old man with a hunched waist, a pale face, and ravines, but a pair of eyes that could not hide their depth and vastness.
“Eighteen Ancestor?”
Heavenly Maiden Tianlu’s heart trembled slightly, and she recognized this figure. It was the invincible being who attacked the city today, and his cultivation was close to Immortal.
If it wasn’t because heaven and earth didn’t allow it, he would have become Immortal. That kind of overwhelming pressure was enough to destroy the universe and shatter the heavens and the earth.
No one would have imagined that the invincible existence who swallowed eternity and almost knocked down Heavenly Lu City with a palm, would be such an ordinary-looking old man.
Of course, she didn’t dare to underestimate him. Moreover, what shocked her was Gu Changge’s address for the old man in front of her.
Eighteen Ancestor? Could it be that this person could only rank eighteenth among the Ancestors of the Gu family today?
“Did I disturb the two of you?”
After Gu Lang appeared, he smiled jokingly at Gu Changge. He didn’t care about Heavenly Maiden Tianlu, who was from the Eight Desolations and Ten Region, and he wasn’t hostile to her like other ancient existences.
“A little bit.” Gu Changge nodded and smiled slightly.
“Kid, you really don’t give face at all.”
Gu Lang was not surprised when he heard the words, he smiled casually, then fixed his eyes on Gu Changge and said, “It doesn’t seem to be long since I saw you last time, and you are able to fight the Enlightened beings in a blink of an eye. Everyone has their own secrets. Although with your current status and strength, not many people dare to investigate you in the current Upper Realm. But you still have to be careful.”
“On this point, the Eighteenth Ancestor can rest a.s.sured.”
Gu Changge raised his eyebrows, guessing the meaning of the Eighteenth Ancestor in his heart.
In the end, thinking about it, it should be related to his current cultivation base, after all, it was too unbelievable. But things had come to this, he didn’t believe that anyone would dare to investigate him, and the real inheritor of demonic art was Su Qingge, who was still in the Upper Realm, and her traces were easy to find.
It could be said that it had nothing to do with him. As for the matter of Heavenly Maiden Tianlu, Ancestor Gu Lang didn’t ask much, nor did he care too much. After chatting with Gu Changge for a while, he left, looking very natural.
It seemed that coming to these Eight Desolations and Ten Regions was purely to get some fresh air. On the contrary, Heavenly Maiden Tianlu was quite afraid of Gu Lang and felt that the background of the Ancient Immortal Gu Family was really unimaginable.
A few days later, a major event that shook the entire Heavenly Lu City happened suddenly.
Early in the morning, one after another divine light could be seen piercing through the sky, appearing from the pavilions and palaces, and then above the sky there were bursts of light gates, and a large number of cultivators and creatures were called up by the powerhouses and were included in the divine weapon.
This scene shook the entire Heavenly Lu City, and some cultivators noticed that those people who left were all from certain big clans of the Eight Desolations and Ten Regions!
And they didn’t hide it at all. In front of everyone, the entire clan evacuated. Even an Enlightened being in the tribe tore apart the s.p.a.ce and left quickly as if he wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
This incident happened so suddenly that all the cultivators in Heavenly Lu City fell into shock and stupefied. Wasn’t this abandoning the city and escaping?
After reacting, everyone became angry, and yelled at that family, scolding them for being greedy for life and afraid of death. However, this was not the end, and then more ethnic clans began to follow suit, and cultivators could be seen escaping from Heavenly Lu City all day long. Even if some ancient existences appeared to stop then, it was useless at all.
This group of people came aggressively at first, but now they escaped the city in embarra.s.sment. They didn’t want to stay here for a while. After witnessing the horror and invincibility of the Upper Realm, they just wanted to escape and stay away from this place.
After someone took the lead, more cultivators and creatures fell into uneasiness, fear, and hesitation. The rest of the people had escaped. What was the use of their staying in Heavenly Lu City?
Should they stay here and wait for their death? This was simply impossible, so why should the rest of the people run away while they were desperate? It was not fair to them at all.
Such emotions quickly spread, and for a while, the entire Heavenly Lu City fell into great despair, anxiety, and panic. The fighting spirit that they had when they witnessed the barrier outside Heavenly Lu City, blocking the invincible existence from the Upper Realm, was suddenly extinguished.
All the cultivators and creatures became anxious, even those who had the will to die were stunned in the end, very dazed and suddenly felt that they had become very powerless. This was the Tianlu City and the Eight Desolations and Ten Regions they were desperately trying to protect.
Was it worth it?
“Sure enough, Brother’s method is clever. In this way, if we evacuate in the end, not only will no one say anything, but we will leave a good reputation.”
“Yeah, after all, we were forced to abandon the city in the end. We resisted to the end, and there is really no way.”
In the depths of Heavenly Lu City, several figures shrouded in the vast chaotic mist saw this scene in Heavenly Lu City and couldn’t help laughing. Their words were quite admirable, and they were a little proud.
The news of abandoning the city and escaping during this period was naturally pa.s.sed on by their orders. The purpose was to give themselves a reasonable and aboveboard excuse to abandon the city and escape.
Just as they expected, Heavenly Lu City was already in chaos today, and even if they escaped at this time, no one would say anything. Of course, in their plan, now was not the time to escape, and they had to order their clan to continue to resist for a period of time.
In this way, it would seem even more legitimate, above righteousness, it would still hold some water. For the next few days, Heavenly Lu City was still shrouded in panic and anxiety. All the cultivators and creatures were worried and terrified, their hearts were treacherous, and they couldn’t figure it out.
Because every day, they could see one divine light after another and ancient warships evacuating Heavenly Lu City, disappearing into the air, and going straight away without looking back.
“Is this the Heavenly Lu City that Master is guarding wholeheartedly?”
Seeing this scene, the contemporary Heavenly Maiden Tianlu Song Chan gradually calmed down from the anger and anxiety at the beginning and her words were mixed with a bit of sadness.
In the past few days, she had been hesitating about whether to follow Lin Wu’s words and make a major and irreversible decision. But now, her gaze gradually became more firm.
