"How much do you know about this matter, Brother Ye?"
Gu Changge spoke lightly about the matter as if he was asking about something insignificant.
At the same time, he lifted the wine glass to his lips and gulped it in one gulp with a hint of admiration in his words as he praised, "This wine is quite tasty."
Yue Mingkong was dumbfounded as he watched his show of innocence, and a chill descended on his back. Others might not be able to figure it out, but he clearly understood the plot.
Gu Changge was the true heir of the Forbidden Demon Art, but he had trapped many people in their previous lives!
Sweetheart! He foolishly believed her at all times, and never once doubted her words.
But now that he watched her plot against someone right in front of him, he could not help the cold sweat on his back and hands.
While talking, laughing, and drinking, he pinned such a dangerous suspicion on Ye Ling's head as if it was a light matter that was not worth mentioning.
Although Yue Mingkong wanted to kill Ye Ling as well, he could not compare to Gu Changge in terms of dealing with the other party. Everything he had done up until now could be considered insignificant when compared to Gu Changge's evil ways.
He already understood that Gu Changge was a terrifying monster, but watching him bring someone to such destruction completely subverted his understanding of its true depth.
His every word, deed, and movement were carefully calculated with the intent to destroy someone!
The cold sweat that descended on his back continued to rise, and Yue Mingkong gave himself a mental note to never reveal the fact that he knew that Gu Changge had the [Immortal-Devouring Demonic Art]. If Gu Changge found out about this matter, then he would find himself dead without a burial ground, and no one would be able to save him back then.
After all, his regression did not give him an advantage over Gu Changge.
“These eggs are very tasty, Bingkong; you should have a taste too. ”
Back then, when Yue Mingkong was immersed in innumerable thoughts, Gu Changge brought a glass of wine in front of him and asked him to taste.
“Why is your face so pale, and why are your hands a little cold? Are you feeling unwell?”
Yue Mingkong knew that Gu Changge's worries were all fake, so he couldn't help but sit there in a daze without saying anything in response for a while.
"Replace, I'm fine."
Yue Mingkong shook his head and muttered to him without letting him see any abnormalities.
Gu Changge's smile showed no change, and he continued, "That's good."
He knew that Yue Mingkong might have guessed his intentions, and that was what caused the sudden change in his condition.
As for using that trick to deal with Ye Ling? Gu Changge was naturally too familiar with things like this. He did not feel any psychological burden through his plan, and it was no different from eating and drinking for him.
Yue Mingkong, on the other hand, was only a woman.
Although he could take drastic action in certain situations, all of those actions were forced by his situation. He was not someone like him who was born to be a criminal whose head had nothing but a twenty-four times seven conspiracy.
As for where did he get the idea to blame Ye Ling's head? It was a coincidence.
The reason why he went to the Heavenly Dao Ancient City was because Yin Mei gathered some high-quality 'cultivation resources' for him, but something went wrong as she gathered resources for him, and some powers are aware of Young's disappearance. Heavenly Genius, and it caused quite a stir and panic in the outside world.
Gu Changge did not blame him.
After all, a person walking by the river would make his shoes wet at one point or another.
Even if he did so in such a secret, it was inevitable that he would reveal some flaws or traces at some point in time.
Just when Gu Changge was thinking of a solution to this problem, he met Ye Langtian who brought up Ye Ling's problem.
Didn't he just send her a scapegoat?
As for how he was going to pin everything on Ye Ling's head? Gu Changge had already thought through many methods, and each of his plans could ensure that Ye Ling would be his scapegoat seamlessly, and no one could find the flaws.
Ye Langtian was somewhat dumbfounded.
After which, as he watched Gu Changge and Yue Mingkong chatting harmoniously with each other, he could not help but praise the two while smiling, "Brother Gu, Princess Bingkong, please, your relationship is absolutely enviable."
Now, Yue Mingkong had already returned to normal and responded to his words with a silent smile.
At the same time, he thought that he was asking for too much.
Although Gu Changge was still putting his personal interests first, when compared to their previous lives, the relationship between the two of them was much better, and it only continued to improve.
Specially? Gu Changge even clenched his hands to comfort him when he realized they had become somewhat cold and sweaty.
He did not know if he noticed anything from his appearance, but his attention made him feel good.
Just then, Ye Langtian continued the previous topic and said, "Many talented geniuses have recently disappeared, and it caused many powers to panic."
“The most important thing about this matter is that those who disappear do not have a high cultivation base. At first, no one noticed anything, but after too many disappeared at once, some cultivators realized that not a few people disappeared.”
"Even more important than that is the fact that someone dug up various Daoist graves, and many ancient corpses disappeared from within."
It was not difficult for Ye Langtian to know the details on the matter, after all, he was the Young Master of the Ancient Immortal Ye Family.
Of course, the main reason this matter reached him was because the granddaughter of the Great Family Elder disappeared a few days ago.
The Elder Grandson had recently made his debut in the outside world, so he had no grudges with anyone, yet he still disappeared without a trace.
Still, the Upper Realm was vast, so it was not normal for some people to disappear once in a while — to be exact, one could not count the number of people who disappeared in the Upper Realm every day.
Cultivators could be lost for various reasons such as: 'falling into the Spatial Rift, inadvertently provoking the hidden master to act and die as a result, or else ...'
What makes this Elder grandson a special case is the fact that the Elder found a clue about strength in the shadows who had been searching for a talented genius for a while. The influence of this power started from the Inner Region and then spread to the Central and Outer Region of the Upper Realm.
It shocked many of the forces immediately after coming out, and most of them panicked in response.
"What you say is no different from what I hear."
Gu Changge said with a nod and then thought.
After a while, he looked at Ye Langtian, and immediately asked, "Brother Ye, do you think this has anything to do with the legacy of the 'it' taboo' who was annihilated after the countless Dao Inheritances united?"
Gu Changge asked with a calm expression.
His words were straight to the point as it would be more suspicious if he started rambling now.
"Sister Gu, what do you want to say?"
A thoughtful glint flashed in Ye Langtian's eyes.
He did not need Gu Changge to explain further on the matter as he had also reached the same conclusion since it was unlikely that this matter would cause such panic.
The fact that it was called a 'taboo inheritance' already said a lot about its terror.
No one in the Upper Realm would dare to name that legacy in the current era, and that was why it was called the 'taboo inheritance' by those who talked about it.
“If my guess is correct, then the legacy of the 'it' taboo must have appeared once again. After all, it's like a wild weed attack that won't actually die even if you burn it. Once spring arrives, the weed will grow back — no matter how we destroy it, sooner or later it will recover.”
Gu Changge said without changing his calm expression.
Yue Mingkong, on the other hand, felt as if Gu Changge was imagining something as he listened to his words.
After all, the true master of that taboo heritage was none other than Gu Changge!
Now, however, he was talking about it as if it had nothing to do with him.
"Brother Gu, that's what I conclude as well."
Ye Langtian nodded at his words with a sigh, and suddenly felt that he had found himself as a confidant in Gu Changge's form; he could not help but appreciate the fact that he could make a friendship with her.
Of course, he did not know that Gu Changge only wanted to use his mouth to spread the matter.
This way, no one could place their suspicions on Gu Changge himself.
"If that's true, then the birth of the taboo inheritance is too coincidental."
Gu Changge spoke again with a brooding expression as if he was trying to figure out the ins and outs of the matter.
"Brother Gu, do you think Ye Ling's sudden awakening has anything to do with that taboo legacy?"
Ye Langtian also did not beat around the bush and asked with a somewhat confused and thoughtful expression.
“I have investigated Ye Ling, and what I found is that she has no background, no resources, and even her guarantee branch does not really appreciate her, to the point that he almost chased us?”
“Indeed, as you say, Brother Gu! This is too coincidental, so it seems like I should pay extra attention to this matter. ”
Ye Langtian responded by agreeing.
Although Gu Changge's calm expression showed no change, in his heart, he praised Ye Langtian for getting the hint and going the path he prepared for him.
With that, Ye Ling's life would not be as smooth as before.
Of course, he needed to push for some more trouble before he could handle it completely.
“Brother Gu, this matter is very important, so I have to leave as soon as possible and report back to the Family; I will see you again after the Ancient Eternal Continent opens. ”
Ye Langtian's complexion turned grim as he thought more and more about the matter, and before long, he took Ye Liuli and left.
"Sister Ye, don't be too hasty."
Gu Changge bid him farewell with an indifferent smile on his face.
Before long, silence enveloped the entire god tower, while Gu Changge watched the street outside with a thoughtful expression.
Yue Mingkong did not say anything, and continued to stare at Gu Changge's handsome face with a bright light in his eyes — as if he wanted to see it at all.
"What's wrong? Aren't you tired of seeing your husband's face after days?”
Gu Changge said with a chuckle and then held his hand once more.
Yue Mingkong's beautiful eyes did not move away from her, and she replied by shaking her head, "Your methods are too scary."
“You don't need to worry about that – Ye Ling must die, so it's easier to kill him like this,” Gu Changge continued with a laugh, “After all, didn't I, your husband, help you kill? she?"
Yue Mingkong responded with a feeble snort, showing his contempt for his statement.
He helped her kill him? It's totally bullshit.
Those are just beautiful words. In reality, he was aiming for all the benefits that were in killing Ye Ling!
At most, he would let her have leftover soup after swallowing all the meat.
Those who teamed up with Gu Changge would be foolish to think that they could benefit anything through him, be it his fiancee or someone else.
Yue Mingkong understood Gu Changge better than anyone in the world.
"Your son has nothing but a conspiracy in it .. How many of your words can be trusted?"
Yue Mingkong did not have the energy to engage with him anymore, and started thinking about the way Ye Ling could remember from the memories of her previous life. Now that he was suffering a loss, he had no choice but to be more careful.
“Please wait and watch the show.”
Gu Changge said while chuckling.
……
[In the remote ancient city to the east of the Heavenly Dao Ancient City.]
“Bai Lie brothers, I must thank you for all the cultivation resources you have given me all along! I'll never reach my current height without your help. ”
Several Young Heavenly Geniuses — men and women — chat while drinking inside a luxurious-looking pavilion. Among them sat a black-clothed man with a pendant hanging around his neck: 'he is Ye Ling.'
Sitting there, he toasted to Bai Lie and expressed his sincere gratitude for his constant love and support.
Bai Lie sat in the middle of everyone present and made sure to reveal his amazing and powerful aura to make sure no one around him underestimated him and kept his distance.
After all, Bai Lie was the Young Master of the White Tiger Family, and his identity was far superior to theirs. The only reason he had come to such a bad place like this was to give face to his brother, Ye Ling.
“Brother Ye Ling, you are too polite! Since when is there a need for such words among us, brothers?”
Bai Lie happily said with a laugh.
He was already a bit drunk, and his words were filled with a spirit of heroism.
Suddenly, his expression brightened as he felt the Communication Talisman on his arm let out a weak heat — it showed that his fiancee, Yin Mei, was contacting him.
The sudden contact from her added to Bai Lie's happiness as Yin Mei rarely contacted him.
“I know my sister-in-law is calling you, Brother! Brother, why don't you see the message? ”
Ye Ling was well aware of Bai Lie's affairs; she knew that Bai Lie liked her fiance very much and that this sister-in-law brightened Bai Lie's mood every time he talked about it!
His words made the smile on Bai Lie's face widen and he checked the message from the Communication Talisman in haste, and said with a smile, “Yin Mei said that she will be leaving the Heavenly Immortal Dao Palace for some matters today, so I can meet her if I want.”
