From Gu Changge’s point of view, the matter of the siblings of the Ji family were actually very simple. It took nothing more than a sentence to inform the outside world that the Ji family was now under his protection.
All the hostile forces of the Ji family dare not take action against the Ji family. So letting Ji Chu Yue stay was equivalent to agreeing to their request and sending a signal to the outside world.
After all, there were quite a few forces staring at the Ji family, and now Ji Chu Yue and Ji Yaoxing had suddenly left the family for the Ancient Immortal Gu family. Many people were secretly watching and paying close attention.
In the end, Ji Chu Yue stayed here, while Ji Yaoxing returned to the family. What did that mean?
As the little princess of the Ji family, in some respects, Ji Chu Yue also represented the face of the Ji family. She was now at the age of a flower and she had no marriage contract. At this juncture, she went to the Ancient Immortal Gu family and even stayed there.
As long as the hostile forces of the Ji family were not stupid or blind, they could see what this meant. Ji Yaoxing and Ji Chu Yue were not stupid, and they immediately understood Gu Changge’s intentions.
“Thank you, Young Master Changge. Our Ji family will never forget your great kindness, and we will definitely remember it.”
The expressions of two of them became extremely grateful. Their voices were trembling slightly so that they didn’t know how to express their grat.i.tude. Before coming here, they were all prepared to be rejected by Gu Changge.
But they never thought that Gu Changge would agree to them in the end. This kindness alone was worth remembering by all members of the Ji family forever. What was more, it was Gu Changge who helped the two of them get out of Mount Kun before.
“We owe too much to Young Master Changge,” Ji Yaoxing said secretly in his heart and glanced at his younger sister’s rosy face.
Ji Chu Yue understood what her brother meant, and nodded shyly, feeling her face was hot, her heart beating fast, she didn’t dare to look up at Gu Changge.
“Senior Ji Sheng Chu once showed great kindness to hundreds of millions of creatures in the Upper Realm. How can I stand by and watch the Ji family encounter such a disaster.”
Gu Changge didn’t look back and sighed softly as if regretting what happened to the Ji family.
Ji Yaoxing added solemnly, “No matter what, at this juncture, Young Master Changge is willing to help my Ji family. This is a great kindness, and my Ji family will never forget it.”
He had always been arrogant before and felt that he was not inferior to others in the younger generation. He was humble on the surface, but in fact, he didn’t take it seriously. He felt that if the Ji family was restored to its former glory, he would definitely become one of the brightest and most powerful young supreme beings in the Upper Realm. His fear of Gu Changge was due to his power and status, but now he truly admired Gu Changge.
Gu Changge smiled, waved his hands, and said, “Brother Yaoxing doesn’t have to be like this, it’s just a trivial matter to me.”
Although Gu Changge said it lightly, he didn’t take it to heart. Yet Ji Chu Yue and Ji Yaoxing are extremely grateful to him now. Once receiving Gu Changge’s guarantee, the haze in Ji Yaoxing’s heart finally dissipated, he took a long breath and then left.
During this period of time, there was a smile on my face full of sorrow, with high self-confidence.
“Elder brother…”
Seeing that he left, Ji Chu Yue suddenly felt uneasy, seemed extremely at a loss, and didn’t even know where to put her hands.
After all, she and Gu Changge were the only ones left in the palace now. Gu Changge’s divine Island was located here, and he usually cultivated here.
Ji Chu Yue was spoiled since she was a child. Although she didn’t have the temperament of an arrogant young lady, she had never served anyone. Now standing behind Gu Changge, she just felt like there was a light on her back and didn’t know what to do.
Gu Changge asked her to stay?
Now she only had Gu Changge’s words just now in her mind. Her little hands were twisted together as she started thinking about it.
The first time she saw Gu Changge, she was looking for the Heavenly Tower near Purple Mountain.
At that time, Gu Changge and his fiancée Emperor Yue Mingkong of the Peerless Immortal Dynasty had rushed to the Divine Ruin Sect together.
It was also the first time she met Jiang Chen there, and when she learned that he was unable to enter the Divine Ruin Sect due to his talent, she gave him a chance to become a disciple there.
It was also at that time that Jiang Chen confessed to her that he had the inheritance of the Divine Origin Master and could help her find the Heavenly Tower. Ji Chu Yue put restoring the splendor of the Ji family as the top priority, so she naturally chose to trust Jiang Chen.
At that time, Ji Chu Yue felt that Gu Changge, as the descendant of the Ancient Immortal Gu Family, had great power, and they were not from the same world at all. So although she respected him, she was actually full of indifference.
Even later, when she learned that Gu Changge was looking for the Heavenly Tower, she kept it from him and went to Purple Mountain with Jiang Chen and others. But it was because of that incident that she deeply realized what true power was.
Later, their whereabouts were followed by Chen Ning’er, and the Ji family was worried about offending Gu Changge, so they did not hesitate to send Gu Changge the Heavenly Wheel they had finally obtained.
Originally, there would not be any redundant intersection between her and Gu Changge. But Ji Chu Yue did not expect that Gu Changge would become the savior of the entire Ji family.
Even today, she would stand behind him, being shy and nervous. All this could only be thought to be a joke. She clearly knew that because of the incident in Mount Kun, she really had an indescribable admiration for Gu Changge.
Because he was indeed a man so perfect that it was difficult to pick out any flaw. Ji Chu Yue believed that any woman in the Upper Realm would have such thoughts as long as she had contact with him.
Even though at that time in the dungeon of Kunwu City, Gu Changge teased her like this in front of Jiang Chen. Ji Chu Yue wasn’t angry either, she just felt a little embarra.s.sed and ashamed.
“Don’t worry, after today, the major forces should not dare to think about the Ji family again,” Gu Changge, who seemed to have sensed Ji Chu Yue’s nervousness, chuckled lightly and added.
Hearing his gentle, natural, gentle voice, Ji Chu Yue felt relaxed for some reason.
“Yeah, I see.” Ji Chu Yue nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and then uttered in a low voice like a mosquito, “I don’t know how to thank Young Master Changge for his great kindness, there is really nothing to repay…”
Gu Changge smiled, turned around and interrupted her, “So you plan to give your body in return?”
Ji Chu Yue didn’t expect Gu Changge to be so blunt, her face became rosier, and she lowered her head with a shy expression.
She suddenly remembered that when she was very young, a grandmother beside her had teased saying that if she met a man who would be kind to her in the future. So when it came to rewards, it depended on how he looked.
For the average-looking one they would be a cow or a horse in the next life. If they were good-looking, then naturally it was a promise of a body.
At that time, she simply thought that Grandma was joking, but for some reason today, when she looked at Gu Changge, these words came to her mind.
“Master Changge, you should not lack a woman like Chu Yue by your side, but if you don’t dislike…” She raised her head and cautiously looked at Gu Changge’s expression as if she was afraid of saying a wrong sentence and causing his displeasure.
Gu Changge smiled casually but was noncommittal. If Jiang Chen hadn’t died yet, how would he feel after seeing this scene?
In fact, Ji Chu Yue’s Luck point was not low. According to the normal trajectory and routine, she might become the heroine next to Jiang Chen or something like that. But Jiang Chen was still dead, Ji Chu Yue, what would happen to the undecided heroine in the future, this was no longer what Gu Changge needed to think about now.
If it was in the past, he might still be thinking about gaining some Luck points, Destiny value, and so on. But now it was no longer needed.
“Come talk to me.” Gu Changge smiled lightly, motioning for Ji Chu Yue to come over.
“Yes… Young Master Changge.” Ji Chu Yue stammered slightly, and walked forward with her head buried, revealing a white and slender neck, like a frightened deer in the forest.
“Do you still remember what I said to you in Kunwu City?” Gu Changge smiled lightly and reached out his hand to her hair.
“I still… remember.” Ji Chu Yue nodded, naturally she would not forget the scene in the dungeon.
“Then do you know why your brother insisted that you come over?” Gu Changge asked with interest.
Ji Chu Yue naturally didn’t dare to lie at this time, so she had to be honest. So she said with a trembling voice, “Because my brother wants me to curry favor with Young Master Changge so that you can save our Ji family.”
“Oh, it seems that you are quite honest.” Gu Changge smiled.
Ji Chu Yue thought that he was going to blame her, so she quickly raised her eyes and explained, “But Young Master Changge, you didn’t embarra.s.s my brother and me, and you agreed to help our Ji family. My brother and I are very grateful…”
“But I don’t think you did it voluntarily. Don’t worry, you can return to the Ji family after a while, and I won’t force you to stay here,” Hearing this, Gu Changge said with a faint smile on his face.
Ji Chu Yue didn’t expect Gu Changge to say that, she was stunned for a moment, her heart was very jealous and complicated. She was even a little bit unspeakably disappointed.
In her opinion, it was just Gu Changge’s disdain for her rhetoric. How could this kind of thing be involuntary or forced?
Even if her brother encountered such a family disaster, it was impossible for him to wrong her.
“Chu Yue knows that I am clumsy, I don’t know anything, and I won’t please Young Master Changge. But in fact, Chu Yue can learn these things. I can do what Qingxuan and the others can do. I am not inferior to them.”
It seemed that after deliberating for a long time, Ji Chu Yue suddenly summoned up her courage as she raised her eyes to look at Gu Changge before saying, she wanted Gu Changge to give her a chance.
But Gu Changge just smiled slightly at this. Since Ji Chu Yue wanted to learn, she would learn slowly, Gu Changge didn’t have so much time to waste on her.
After Ji Yaoxing returned to the family, the affairs of the Ji family were naturally resolved.
In the current Upper Realm, even if it was a faction that had nothing to do with the Gu family, they didn’t want to provoke him at this time.
Gu Changge intended to protect the Ji family, so the major forces could only get rid of the thoughts about the Ji family currently.
In the next few days, Ji Chu Yue seemed to have adapted to the current life. She put aside her status as the little princess of the Ji family, and began to ask the maids who usually served Gu Changge about his various habits and preferences.
She believed in the truth that dripping water would wear away a rock. Starting from a small matter, she would definitely impress Gu Changge one day. However, after staying with the family for several days, Gu Changge took Alpha and left the Gu family, heading for the territory where the Human Ancestor Hall was located.
From Yue Mingkong’s side, there had been no news of the Master of the Heavenly Sword, so Gu Changge was not in a hurry.
It just so happened that during this period of time, Absolute Heavenly Extinction had turned into a very serious disaster. In the name of Human Ancestor, he couldn’t justify not having a look.
On Jiang Chuchu’s side, she found a few areas where the disaster of Absolute Heavenly Extinction broke out. It was just that with her current ability, she still couldn’t solve it.
If Gu Changge wanted to collect the origin of Absolute Heavenly Extinction, he had to go to her anyway.
At the same time, in the Upper Realm, in the Heavenly Domain. As the center of the most prosperous and ancient territory, a majestic palace was located within the sky. It seemed magnificent and sacred, like an immortal palace standing here.
The palace was built in an extremely magnificent manner, with flawless white jade glazed tiles, million-year-old purple gold sandalwood as the eaves, and pure obsidian starstone as the floor.
It was grand and simple, oozing out with a majestic and solemn aura. There was a sea of immortal energy surging within it, just like a fairyland. This palace overlooked the endless ancient city and old pool below.
The hall rose and fell with the sun rising and the moon setting as the runes were intertwined on it. Every moment reflected the stars of the Nine Heavens, Heaven, and Earth, like the Supreme seat of G.o.d. It also showed the transcendent status of this place.
In front of the gate of the hall was hanging a huge fairy plaque, with purple gold as the base and golden immortal characters inlaid with gold.
There were three ancient characters; Human Ancestor Hall.
It could be seen that there were countless silver threads between Heaven and Earth, which were frantically rushing to this place, trying to converge into it, appearing holy and pure white.
These silver threads were exactly the faith and recitation of the great achievements of Human Ancestors by cultivators from all over the universe.
At this moment, a beautiful woman in flawless white clothes and a scarf was sitting cross-legged in the hall. Her complexion was fair and delicate, her eyebrows were picturesque, and her eyes were like flawless black gemstones, shining with a moving l.u.s.ter.
However, her expression was very calm, and one couldn’t see any other emotions except peace. She seemed to be born like this, more like abandoning the seven emotions and six desires.
It was Jiang Chuchu, one of the two Holy Maidens of the Human Ancestor Hall.
In front of her, there was a solid gold Crown of Luck, and it could be seen that the silver threads gathering in the Human Ancestor Hall were all rushing into it. She was cultivating with the help of this golden Crown of Luck, and the strange sound of merit was manifested everywhere like a vast ocean.
It was the artifact that Gu Changge left in the Human Ancestor Hall at the beginning, and later Jiang Chuchu found out that when she was cultivating beside it. Her progress was extremely fast.
Buzz!!
When she was cultivating, many visions were manifesting here. The vague shadows of Immortals appeared grand and mysterious, seeming to be chanting scriptures. The fluctuation behind her seemed as if they were crossing time and s.p.a.ce from ancient times.
“Reporting to the Holy Maiden, in the southwest direction of the Heavenly Domain, there is further news of the eruption of the catastrophe from the Absolute Heavenly Extinction, and the adjacent Great Yu Immortal Dynasty has sent people to investigate…”
“Should we send someone over to have a look?” Suddenly, an old woman in white clothes outside the hall rushed over and reported with a bit of anxiety.
Hearing this, Jiang Chuchu frowned. She stopped cultivating, and asked, “How many times has the outbreak of the Absolute Heavenly Extinction occurred during this month?”
Although she was speeding up her cultivation every day and night, in the face of the sudden eruption of the scourge of the Absolute Heavenly Extinction, she still seemed powerless, and there was nothing she could do.
