Chapter 540: Bewitched by Gu Changge, Is Xian’er a Divine Origin Master?
“Don’t worry, I promise not to tell Mr. Gu what you said to me today. Let’s go to a place where no one can find you, Mr. Gu is not your enemy. If you don’t want to die, don’t think about seeking revenge on Mr. Gu.”
In the courtyard, the atmosphere had turned heavy. Xiao Ruoyin and Jiang Chen fell into a stalemate, a crack was formed in their relationship because of this matter. However, Xiao Ruoyin quickly regained her composure and spoke softly, her eyes were cold and alienated.
“Because of Gu Changge, you actually disregarded our friendship and favored him so much? How can you let Niu Tian and the others rest in peace under the Nine Springs?”
Jiang Chen’s eyes were filled with anger and disappointment as he asked back filled with regret.
“I think there should be something else hidden about Niu Tian and the others. As far as I know, Mr. Gu is not the kind of person you said. It would be great if there was any misunderstanding in this.” Xiao Ruoyin shook her head and justified, her expression was extremely calm.
In Jiang Chen’s eyes, this kind of tranquility was extremely strange and terrifying. He couldn’t help laughing miserably as he suddenly covered his heart, feeling that it was hurting like it was being torn.
Immediately, Xiao Ruoyin sighed softly, turned, and left the courtyard without saying anything. Jiang Chen looked at her back with a pale face but didn’t make a sound to stop her.
He understood that from now on, there was a gap between him and Xiao Ruoyin that would never be smoothed over. The current Xiao Ruoyin was no longer the cold and untouchable G.o.ddess when he first met her.
This G.o.ddess had long since fallen into the mortal world.
“Xiao Chen, you can’t ignore her like this. Master just didn’t understand it for a while, she was bewitched by that Gu Changge. You must not let her fall into the fire pit…”
In Jiang Chen’s mind, the voice of the Creation Immortal Boat Artifact Spirit was extremely anxious and worried.
After listening to the conversation between Jiang Chen and Xiao Ruoyin from the beginning to the end, it made him feel that the current Xiao Ruoyin just didn’t understand the situation. It was hard for her to accept this cruel reality.
Once Xiao Ruoyin figured it out and calmed down, she would know how dangerous it was to stay by Gu Changge’s side.
“You don’t need to say…” Jiang Chen interrupted it in pain, his face turned pale, and he tightly clutched his heart, feeling that it was very painful. A person that was very precious to him was quietly leaving him.
After Xiao Ruoyin and Jiang Chen parted, she went straight back to the residence of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace. She was in a mess and needed a little time to regain her composure.
“I can only pretend that I don’t know about Jiang Chen’s matter, and I can’t mention it to Mr. Gu. To get to this point, how can Mr. Gu be so simple? I was too naive before.”
She sighed and rubbed her painful brow. Before that, she never thought that this mysterious descendant of the Divine Origin Master would be Jiang Chen.
Things had turned complicated and tricky. The most important thing for her now was to play her previous ident.i.ty in front of Gu Changge. This time she vowed to do it successfully, but Jiang Chen obviously had an insoluble hatred for Gu Changge. She hadn’t figured out how to explain this to Gu Changge for a while.
On the other side, Gu Changge was preparing for the Divine Stone Conference three days later.
After this conference, the Ji family would join hands with other forces to attack Mount Kun. It was also an extremely rare event for the entire Upper Realm.
Gu Changge himself was not very interested in this kind of conference. But this time at the Divine Stone Conference, it was said that there were a few divine stones that were particularly miraculous, which caught his attention.
One piece even breathed like a living being in the middle of the night, actively absorbing the starlight from the sky, devouring the brilliance of the sky, and some people saw the scene of rising clouds from it, which was called the Immortal Fetus.
There was another piece, which was said to be an ominous stone fetus that led to the destruction of the Huanxi Sacred Land.
Back then, the Ancestors of the Huanxi Sacred Land risked their lives to come out of Mount Kun, but within a few days, the Huanxi Sacred Land encountered an unknown situation, and the huge Immortal force was turned into a catastrophe overnight.
Many people said that it was related to the unknown stone tire. Over the years, the stone fetus had been sealed in the depths of Kunwu City and suppressed by enlightened people.
But some time ago, there was a change in that stone tire, which was said to be at the same time as the change in Mount Kun. Therefore, the stone fetus had a lot to do with the fact that Ji Sheng Chu, the Ancestor of the Ji family, was trapped in Mount Kun.
In this conference, these divine stones would be taken out. All the major Immortal forces and the Supreme sects had recruited many origin masters, and they planned to take great risks to cut out these divine stones at this conference.
“All factions and sects will partic.i.p.ate. There may be some surprises at this Divine Stone Conference.” Gu Changge had some guesses about this.
He didn’t think that Xiao Ruoyin could persuade Jiang Chen, and Gu Changge didn’t need it either. On the contrary, he felt that Xiao Ruoyin and Jiang Chen would have a rift because of this matter.
Although he didn’t pay much attention to this part of Luck point and Destiny value now, it was more or less useful. For Gu Changge, Jiang Chen was just a chess piece that he won’t use yet.
In the beginning, he let the demonic puppet plant the demon seeds on Jiang Chen’s body, just to wait for the opportunity for the demon seeds to mature. This time at the Divine Stone Conference, Gu Changge’s main target was Jiang Chen’s friend Niu Tian, the person with the blood of a Hidden Immortal.
According to his investigations these days, the lady from the Hidden An Clan was currently in Kunwu City. Obviously, they also came to join in the fun and partic.i.p.ate in this Divine Stone Conference.
There was no news from An Yan yet, but Gu Changge felt that she should be able to obtain that drop of the Hidden Immortal’s true blood. If she couldn’t even do this, then what was the use of such a waste, it was of no value to him.
“My lord, the An Clan in the hidden world is just as you said, they are looking for origin masters everywhere, and they seem to be very interested in that Immortal Fetus.” Yin Mei’s voice sounded from outside the hall.
“Are they interested in that Immortal Fetus?” Gu Changge nodded, a little thoughtfully.
If his predictions were correct, the Hidden An Clan would find Jiang Chen in the end. In this way, Jiang Chen and Niu Tian might stage a reunion of old friends. He was very familiar with this kind of routine, for Jiang Chen and Niu Tian, he was their common enemy. It was only natural as they shared the same hatred.
“I want you to help me keep an eye on that girl Xian’er, what has she been doing these days?” Gu Changge asked casually as he thought of something.
A strange expression appeared on Yin Mei’s face as if she wanted to laugh.
“My person was noticed by Miss Xian’er, she warned me not to follow her, and said that she would settle the score with the Young Master. She seems to know that those people are arranged by the Young Master.”
Gu Changge shook his head and laughed, “This girl really deserves a beating.”
Yin Mei smiled and didn’t answer, but she was very envious. She had followed Gu Changge for a long time, even when he was still a true disciple of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace.
Later, she heard that Gu Changge arranged to kill the Young Master of the White Tiger Clan, and then deceived the world in the Immortal Continent to kill the reincarnated Heavenly Lord of Reincarnation… She actually knew Gu Changge’s character very well.
On the surface, he looked gentle and jade-like, extraordinary and refined, but in reality, he was indifferent and cruel, and few people could get into his heart. Even at the beginning, in Gu Changge’s eyes, she was just a chess piece that could be discarded at any time.
In this huge Upper Realm, perhaps only Gu Xian’er could receive such pampering and care from Gu Changge. This kind of envy, as long as one was a woman, would definitely love to have it.
“Where is she now?” Gu Changge asked.
“Miss Xian’er is in the stone gambling workshop in our business alliance… gambling stones.” A strange expression appeared on Yin Mei’s face, “Also, Miss Xian’er’s origin technique seems to be exceptionally superb.”
“Oh? This girl can still gamble with stones?” Gu Changge raised his eyebrows, a little surprised. “She can’t lose herself.”
Speaking of today’s Wan Dao Business Alliance, most of the power fell in the hands of Yin Mei. So even if Gu Xian’er lost completely, and went around in the end, she still fell into Gu Changge’s pocket.
“Miss Xianer has never lost. I heard what the shopkeeper reported, and I feel that Miss Xian’er’s level of origin technique is more like a Divine Origin Master than that mysterious young Divine Origin Master a few days ago,” Yin Mei shook her head and replied, her tone of admiration could not be concealed.
“More like a Divine Origin Master? Could it be that among her several masters, there is really a Divine Origin Master?” Gu Changge was surprised now.
He underestimated this silly girl. Before this, Gu Xian’er had never shown his origin technique in front of him. However, she had always been used to being a loner, even if she possessed a Divine Origin technique, she probably rarely used it in front of others.
If she really got the inheritance of the Divine Origin Master, Gu Changge would have to find a way to tie her by his side no matter what in the Divine Stone Conference three days later. However, Gu Changge always felt that this girl was unreliable.
Could she, like Jiang Chen, rely on foreign objects and rely on cheating methods to judge the rough stone?
At the same time, in the Divine Stone Conference, many cultivators and creatures were gathering here, intently staring at the center. As one of the three major gambling stone workshops in Kunwu City.
At the Divine Stone Conference, it could be said that there were all kinds of rough stones from all over the world. Even for the rough stones in Mount Kun, there were quite a few of them, filled with the brilliance of various colors, appearing extremely bright, surrounded by wisps of glow.
Now this place had gathered many big figures from the Upper Realm, and there were even many young Supreme Beings. The sons of the Ji family, Ji Yaoxing, and Ji Chuyue, were all golden-haired and shining like divine gold.
Jun Yao, the Six Crown King had arrived with an unremarkable face and a gray robe. The Heavenly Phoenix Maiden’s gorgeous face shone in the scarlet robe. The Golden Cicada Buddha, the Heavenly Demon Monarch, and the Little Sage King…
Today, several of the brightest young existences in the Upper Realm had shown their traces here. They were either staring ahead with interest, frowning, or shock and doubt.
“Miss Xian’er, do you want to cut this rough stone too?”
A few old men were trembling and holding stone knives, standing in front of a half-person-high blue-gray rough stone. Their words trembled, their faces flushed, obviously excited to the extreme, and it was difficult to conceal their excitement.
A girl who was as cold as an immortal, her eyes and glances were as cold as ice. She had a big red bird squatting on her shoulder, she nodded slightly when she heard the words, “Cut.”
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the place. Many of the older generations were even more shocked, their faces solemn, and they stared at the front closely, for fear of missing any details.
