Looking at this scene, the area around the market was silent. Even the people of the An Clan, who did not have a good relationship with Gu Changge, did not dare to come forward to stand up for Jiang Chen.
Because even they felt that Jiang Chen’s action just now was too brainless, simply stupid, or maybe thinking too much. He was a person with no power and no influence. At most, he had a little bit of the Divine Origin Master’s heritage, yet he wanted to use the crowd to get a glimpse of Gu Changge’s Heavenly Book.
Wasn’t that a death wish?
The rest of the people were not stupid, no one wanted to risk offending Gu Changge and stand out with him at this time, this so-called great righteousness was no different from stupidity.
“Little Chen, are you all right?” Niu Tian hurriedly went to help Jiang Chen up and couldn’t help but ask worriedly.
He couldn’t figure out why Jiang Chen had just said those words to Gu Changge. This was a big difference from the calm and collected Jiang Chen he usually knew. He felt that Jiang Chen might have been overwhelmed by hatred, and could not help but stand out and say those words.
Niu Tian did not know what had happened between Jiang Chen and Xiao Ruyin. Jiang Chen felt that it was a shame and hadn’t mentioned it to Niu Tian yet.
“I’m fine.” Jiang Chen was in severe pain as he struggled to stand up from the ground, his whole body looked very wretched.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shook his head, feeling humiliated. With his fists clenched he was looking at Gu Changge, who had walked away from him displaying a cold att.i.tude of disdain. His unusually ugly face turned silent, things were completely out of his expectation.
He originally intended to use this situation in order to take revenge on Gu Changge for taking his love but did not expect the crowd’s reaction to be completely different.
In this world of moral righteousness, it was obvious that his head was overwhelmed by jealousy and he was really too naive. The crowd’s fear toward Gu Changge far exceeded his imagination.
“Let’s recuperate first, that unknown stone from the seven Divine Stones has not appeared yet.” An Xi, Xiao Zhanxian, and the others arrived and expressed their concern for Jiang Chen.
She had just witnessed what happened and didn’t step in. And she knew very well that if she had forced her hand, it was unlikely that she would end up in the same place as Jiang Chen.
Teaching Gu Changge to do something?
She also did not know how Jiang Chen mustered the courage, no one but Jiang Chen dared to say such words. If one said that Jiang Chen was rash, then that would be too far fetched. He obviously had another intention, trying to stand on the moral high ground in order to pressurize Gu Changge. This was not what ordinary people dared to think.
“It’s your own fault.”
“Stupid.”
The Heavenly Phoenix Maiden, Six Crown King, and a bunch of other young supreme beings looked at Jiang Chen and shook their heads slightly, obviously also quite disdainful.
They were already suspicious of this ‘Divine Origin Master.’ After seeing all this today, they felt that Jiang Chen’s name was not real, and his actions just now could be described as more than stupid.
Even if he was overwhelmed by jealousy, he should not have said such a thing. In the eyes of many people, this was just a minor incident. Yet after this incident, the image of Jiang Chen, the Divine Origin Master, had fallen greatly.
Especially in the eyes of many people, Jiang Chen’s actions just now had offended Gu Changge. After offending Gu Changge, from now on, it would be very difficult to settle down in the Upper Realm, and many things would be restricted.
Those forces that had planned to continue to extend an olive branch to Jiang Chen also began to hesitate. In contrast to this matter, the news that the Immortal Fetus of the seven Divine Stones had been cut open and a mysterious Heavenly Book had been released spread with a terrifying speed that swept through the Upper Realm, causing a huge uproar.
All the forces in the Upper Realm were shaken by this matter, and many Immortal forces were also the first to deliberate. The mysterious Heavenly Book sliced from the Divine Stone obtained by paying one hundred Immortal Spirits, would not be a simple thing, right?
If the person who obtained the Heavenly Book was not Gu Changge, but someone else, it would have already set off an endless fishy storm at this moment.
During this period, some cultivators noticed a terrifying black demonic cloud, covering a distance of nearly ten thousand miles, from the sea where the Demonic Mountain was located.
A large black ma.s.s was surging in the sky. A bolt of black lightning slashed down, and a Chaotic aura filled the air. There were all kinds of terrifying demons with scaly armor, and demonic wings that looked extremely intimidating.
Since the establishment of the Demonic Mountain, a wide range of demons from the Upper Realm had joined it. With that, the Demonic Mountain had turned into a huge force that could not be underestimated.
Especially the Master of the Demonic Mountain, the Red Demon who emerged from the Demon Burying Abyss and had killed all parties in the Divine City.
With her terrifying strength, it was difficult to find an existence that was comparable to her in the current Upper Realm. People who talked about the Demonic Mountain changed their expressions and they were incomparably afraid of it.
Now, this terrifying demonic cloud was rolling toward Kunwu City with sweeping momentum. This scene made many forces scornful and shocked, feeling that the Demonic Mountain seemed to be intervening in this matter.
After all, after the Divine Stone Conference, the Ji family was going to unite many forces and sects to attack Mount Kun and rescue their Ancestor Ji Sheng Shu.
Could it be that the Demonic Mountain wanted to intervene?
Boom!
And just when the major forces and sects were speculating about this matter, a dull sound suddenly arrived from the depths of Mount Kun, not far from Kunwu City. The sound was like a huge drum bell ringing out, slicing through time and s.p.a.ce along the years.
It was also like a heartbeat, that caused all the cultivators who heard the sound to tremble with palpitations. Their souls had almost left their bodies.
Once again, the strange movement arrived from Mount Kun, in which a dark light rushed up to the sky, obscuring it. From a distance, it was as if night had arrived.
That ominous stone was carried out from Mount Kun by the Ancestors of the Huanxi Sacred Land. At the same time, there was also a terrifying black fog that diffused from its surface with a strong demonic nature and even advanced monks dare not approach it rashly.
As the most concerned Divine Stone among the seven Divine Stones, the unknown stone had not appeared in the world and had been suppressed by an Emperor’s artifact. But at this moment, even the Emperor’s artifact seemed to be unable to suppress it.
On the surface of the stone, there were countless strands of black demonic energy permeating and intertwining. It was so thick that everything within a hundred miles around it had turned into darkness.
Such an abnormal scene made many ancient beings who were responsible for guarding this stone in normal times extremely cautious.
While at the same time, in Kunwu City, where Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace was stationed.
In an extremely magnificent palace, a woman in white was sitting cross-legged on a futon. Her eyes were tightly closed, her expression seemed to be in pain, and her brows were furrowed.
There was an extremely ancient and profound rune between her eyebrows, shining brightly, reflecting the mixed meanings of nothingness, destiny, time, and so on. The whole person looked like it was carved out of jade, and the skin was crystal clear, revealing holiness and dust.
But there was another kind of vicissitudes and antiquity that trekked through the years, as well as Immortality. Her aura was sometimes strong, sometimes depressed, her expression sometimes painful, sometimes calm.
Many changes were manifested from her body.
