I Am the Fated Villain

Chapter 551: Think carefully about the frightening guess, The higher you stand, the more desperate you fall

The ancient vines were as thick as dragons with verdant branches and leaves. The Ethereal Demon Stone quietly fell on it, exuding radiant brilliance as immovable as a mountain.

Many people gathered in this place, hearing Gu Changge’s words at this moment, they all had different emotions. The appearance of Xiao Zhanxian caused quite a stir here, and many cultivators looked over.

His abnormal state just now made many ancient existences and Great sect leaders pay attention to this side.

After all, Xiao Zhanxian, as an ancient freak of the War Immortal Mansion, was also a leader among his peers in the current Upper Realm. How could he be shocked by something so simple?

“Greetings, Young Master Changge. I was thinking about some things just now, and I was a little lost in thought. I hope that Young Master Changge won’t take offense.” Xiao Zhanxian’s expression quickly recovered, and he cupped his hands and replied.

As for Gu Changge’s slightly mocking words, he pretended not to hear them at all. He also understood that he was so shocked just now that his expression changed, which made Gu Changge and others aware of the abnormality.

However, although his face was calm, there was a storm in his heart. He was shocked not because of Gu Changge, but because of Su Qingge behind Gu Changge. Some time ago, he was attacked by the inheritor of demonic art and almost died.

But in this matter, with his gifted pupil technique, he saw through the veil covering the face of the inheritor of demonic art and discovered his true face.

The inheritor of demonic art was not a man, but a woman!

And her face was exactly the same as that of the woman in white who was quietly standing behind Gu Changge. That was why he was so shocked just now, leading to a change in his facial expression. He felt unbelievable, and there was a storm in his heart.

If the two were the same person, then the things involved in this matter were simply too terrifying and unimaginable.

Does Gu Changge know? If Gu Changge knew…

Thinking of this, with Xiao Zhanxian’s state of mind after cultivating all these years, he was trembling slightly and a little scared at this moment.

“Oh, so he was thinking about something, could it be that brother Dao was hurt before, and he is still not well?” Gu Changge asked with interest.

“Thank you, Young Master Changge, for your concern. It seems that the injury from the previous period has not healed yet…” Xiao Zhanxian was not an idiot, at this time he did not want to startle the snake. After regaining his composure, he showed a proper smile and cupped his hands.

“Brother Dao really needs to pay attention to rest.” Gu Changge nodded and smiled slightly.

Hearing the conversation between the two, everyone present had different expressions. Many older generations also frowned slightly, a little puzzled.

Obviously, what Xiao Zhanxian said just now was a bit vague. These words were also like playing a charade and it was not as simple as it seemed on the surface. However, they didn’t expect that this matter would have something to do with Xiao Zhanxian’s previous attack by the inheritor of demonic art.

“It seems that there is something hidden between the two…” The faces of the Heavenly Phoenix Maiden, Jin Chan Buddha, and others moved slightly, feeling that there seemed to be something between Xiao Zhanxian and Gu Changge.

If Xiao Zhanxian had any contact with Gu Changge, it was when he was in the Eight Desolations and Ten Regions. But at that time, Gu Changge was busy dealing with the most powerful people of the Eight Desolations and Ten Regions. It was obvious he had no intersection with Xiao Zhanxian.

If there was any enmity between the two, it is also related to the previous War Immortal of War Immortal Mention.

After all, the reincarnated body of that War Immortal was said to have been killed by Gu Changge in Heavenly Lan Realm. This incident also aroused War Immortal Mansion’s hatred for Gu Changge.

In addition, when Xiao Zhanxian was attacked by the inheritor of demonic art, Gu Changge was still in the Eight Desolations and Ten Region, and it had nothing to do with it.

So they didn’t think about it. Soon, the place returned to calm. Seeing that nothing happened, the major leaders didn’t bother and continued to study the Ethereal Demon Stone.

Gu Changge took Gu Xianer, Su Qingge, Alpha, and others to another area of the marketplace. The square was very large with heaven and earth inside. Each Divine Stone was placed in a different place, and they are far away from each other, so as to avoid being affected by each other’s aura.

“Qingxuan, Xiao Zhanxian seemed to be looking at you just now, have you seen him before?” Gu Changge smiled lightly and asked Su Qingge who was beside him casually.

Su Qingge’s heart tightened. In fact, when Xiao Zhanxian noticed her just now, she felt a little uneasy, feeling that something had gone wrong unexpectedly. Although she hid her true face very well, Xiao Zhanxian obviously possessed some kind of special gifted pupil technique. Xiao Zhanxian probably already knew her true face, otherwise he wouldn’t have shown shock.

“Reporting to Mr. Gu, Qingxuan has never seen Xiao Zhanxian before, and I don’t know why he was staring at me.” Su Qingge shook her head, and replied, biting the matter very tightly.

“Then it looks like he must be an apprentice.” When Gu Changge heard this, he smiled lightly, but his expression remained unchanged.

Su Qingge bit the bullet and said, “Maybe he made a mistake.”

She felt that Gu Changge was trying to save her from a siege just now, but this made the matter even more difficult for her. Su Qingge already felt that his ident.i.ty as the inheritor of demonic art was difficult to keep hidden.

This made her panic for a moment, not knowing what to do next. Was it time to confess to Gu Changge? Would he directly kill herself?

“There are countless ways to change your appearance in this world. If you admit your mistake, it is possible.” Regarding this statement, Gu Changge nodded in agreement.

But Su Qingge always felt that there seemed to be something in the words, and this was the reason Gu Changge was trying to explain to her. She breathed a sigh of relief, looking at it now, the only way was to get rid of Xiao Zhanxian.

And what she wasn’t sure about was whether Xiao Zhanxian would tell the forces behind him about it after knowing her true face. This was what worried her the most.

“Are you all right?” On the other side, there was a group of people from the An Clan who were exploring a few strange rocks.

An Xi was a little puzzled and asked Xiao Zhanxian. The two got very close, and the forces behind them even intended them to marry. Obviously, they were very familiar with each other.

Xiao Zhanxian’s expression had already returned to calm, he shook his head, and used the excuse just now to fool him, “Just now I was in a trance, it’s nothing serious.”

While speaking, he stared at Gu Changge’s back in the distance and frowned. If the maid of Gu Changge was the inheritor of demonic art who attacked and tried to kill him some time ago.

Gu Changge probably didn’t know about it. He also didn’t know that his maid was the hidden inheritor of demonic art. But there was another possibility.

Gu Changge actually knew about this, but he always acquiesced and turned a blind eye. It was also because of this relationship that the inheritor of demonic art would escape from the Gu Changge again and again.

From the incident where the inheritor of demonic art attacked him before. Xiao Zhanxian could feel that the strength of the inheritor of demonic art was very strong, but it was only limited, not to the extent that he could be easily obliterated.

Otherwise, he would not have escaped by chance. Compared with the previous rumors that only Gu Changge could check and balance the inheritors of demonic art, there was obviously a big gap.

Looking at it this way, it made sense why such a weak inheritor of demonic art could escape from Gu Changge again and again.

“This matter has to be reported to the sect after the Divine Stone Conference is over, otherwise there will definitely be a major incident… It’s just too scary.”

Regardless of the possibility, Xiao Zhanxian felt that the matter was very troublesome, and his whole body trembled slightly. He didn’t dare to tell a second person about this matter now, because he was worried that he would startle the snake.

He knew his situation would become extremely dangerous, and he might not even be able to get out of Kunwu City.

An Xi saw that Xiao Zhanxian didn’t say much, so she didn’t continue to ask. The main purpose of her coming here was the seven Divine Stones.

Afterward, she said something to Niu Tian and Jiang Chen who were behind her, and they looked at each other and nodded.

Soon, there was a lot of commotion, pieces of gorgeous strange stones were cut open, and a rich glow of sunlight diffused out, like a multicolored tidal ocean.

Jiang Chen made a move, showing off his skills as a “Divine Origin Master”. A group of people gathered around, all with white heads. The eyes of many older generations were even more fiery, hoping that Jiang Chen could help and cut some longevity medicine for them.

The rest of the origin masters also rushed over after hearing the news, here they witnessed Jiang Chen’s methods with their own eyes.

Though after seeing it, they were very disappointed. They didn’t see any superb technique. On the contrary, Jiang Chen seemed to be picking up watermelons, knocking casually, picking them up, and a.s.serting that there were good things hidden in them.

Such a method was very different from what they had guessed as the Divine Origin Master, but apart from the Divine Origin Master’s explanation, they couldn’t find any extra reason.

“It’s not like a Divine Origin Master, but rather like he has some kind of talent or means to judge whether there is something good in it. However, it is indeed amazing to use this kind of talent in cutting stones.”

Six Crown King, Heavenly Phoenix Maiden, and others also rushed over, and after witnessing Jiang Chen’s methods, they arrived at such a conclusion.

It could be said that Jiang Chen had already caused a sensation in the entire Kunwu City after cutting out many fetishes. Now that he was about to make a move, the place was immediately blocked, and many big shots rushed over.

Even Yu Feiya, the eldest princess of the Yu Dynasty, appeared here. Her bright eyes were perfect, her body was shining, and she was carefully observing Jiang Chen’s methods.

“Looks like they’re trying to steal the limelight. The calculation is pretty good.”

Gu Changge, who was waiting for the Immortal Fetus to appear, noticed the scene on the other side, raised his eyebrows slightly, and guessed the purpose of Jiang Chen and others.

Many big shots from the Upper Realm gathered here. After Jiang Chen showed his skills, if he helped him, he would naturally be appreciated by other big shots. For the An Clan and even An Xi, this was also a good opportunity to gain the favor of various figures.

Gu Changge had no intention of intervening. His smile became a little strange, the higher he stood now, the more desperate he would be when he fell down.
