Chapter 687: I want you to keep an eye on someone, Are you looking for me?
Soon, outside the palace, Xue Yan, led by the third treasurer of the Wan Dao Business Alliance, entered the palace.
She was wearing a red dress, her face was fair and delicate with eyes that were watery. Her hair was like clouds, but her expression was a little nervous, and she was holding her sleeves tightly with her bare hands, looking very uneasy.
As the most glorious palace in the Vermillion Bird Region, there were many masters here, not to mention there were too many terrifying powerhouses hidden in the dark. Their divine senses were as vast as the abyss, and their aura was rolling like an erupting volcano, suppressing this piece of sky as if it would fall down.
Just the way they looked at her made her want to suffocate, and her soul trembled. To put it bluntly, anyone here was like an ancient god, who could easily sweep through the Qinghong Ancient World behind her.
Xue Yan had various thoughts in her heart, making it difficult for her to calm down.
“Miss Xue Yan?” Suddenly, Gu Changge smiled and spoke. He was dressed in white with white socks and loose black hair. He was slender and straight, looking extremely simple and clean. On his handsome face, there was a smile that could make people feel like being caressed by a spring breeze, which could easily calm people’s mixed emotions.
Seeing the detached and refined white man in front of her, even though Xue Yan was not an ordinary person, she stared blankly for a moment. Haze appeared on her cheeks, and it took a few breaths before she recovered.
“Xue Yan greets Mr. Gu.” She saluted respectfully and her eyes fell behind Gu Changge.
Qing’er stood behind Gu Changge respectfully, making tea for him. The million-year-old spring water was boiling as enlightenment tea leaves were rolling within it emanating a rich tea fragrance along with many visions emerging.
The Dao was intertwined in the visions as the sun was shining, the golden sword, the palm-sized ancient clock, the golden small tripod… In terms of value, this cup of tea was definitely worth a city.
Xue Yan had only seen this kind of legendary thing in ancient books. The tea which could help cultivators realize the Dao. Even if they just inhaled the fragrance of tea, their cultivation would advance rapidly. She never thought that she would see it one day. Moreover, it was only used as ordinary tea, one that a person would drink every day. Even in terms of luxury, she seemed extremely powerless.
“I’m afraid only those existences who can cover the world with their hands, sitting and watching the world through the ages can do it…” Xue Yan’s dazed expression quickly recovered, and she was not disturbed by these things anymore.
“I don’t know… Young Master Gu, why did you summon Xue Yan today?” She cupped her hands and asked Gu Changge.
“I’m looking for you, naturally I wanted to ask you for a favor.” Gu Changge smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to signal her to sit down.
Xue Yan was a little hesitant. She didn’t understand what was going on that required Gu Changge to summon her. Could she do things that even Gu Changge couldn’t do?
But she still sat down, waiting for Gu Changge to give orders. Seeing this, Qing’er behind him went over to pour her a cup of enlightenment tea and walked back before standing respectfully behind Gu Changge.
She knew that Gu Changge seemed to be playing a big game of chess, and Xue Yan in front of her was an extremely suitable chess piece.
“Enlightenment Tea…” Seeing the tea in front of her, Xue Yan was stunned for a moment. She really didn’t expect that one day, she would be able to drink enlightenment tea.
Enlightenment tea was bubbling, braving the aura of Daoism that could make people intoxicated and light hearted. A big clock the size of a palm emerged from the vision, chirping leisurely along with the divine sword clanging the celestial light shining as if it was real.
She felt that every pore in her body seemed to be relaxing, and even her soul was absorbing the breath of enlightenment. The bottleneck to the next realm that she had encountered also showed signs of loosening.
“This thing is too precious, Xue Yan fears that she will not be blessed to enjoy it.” However, she still looked in front of her with great difficulty and did not shake her heart because of enlightenment tea.
“It’s just a cup of tea, it’s nothing compared to the favor I can ask Miss Xue Yan.” Gu Changge waved his hand, his eyes seemed a little appreciative as he smiled.
“Then Mr. Gu, why exactly are you… looking for me?” Xue Yan was very curious, and couldn’t help but ask in bewilderment.
“I want you to keep an eye on a person for me.” Gu Changge smiled, tapped his fingers on the table in front of him unhurriedly, and said, “Tell me about his every move and all the troubles around him.”
“A person?” Xue Yan was stunned again, what kind of person she had to keep an eye on? And report his every move to Gu Changge truthfully?
“You should know this person.” Gu Changge smiled, not surprised by Xue Yan’s reaction.
After finishing speaking, Qing’er behind her stepped forward and handed a jade slip to her.
“This is… Senior Brother Lu Ming?” Xue Yan penetrated into the jade slip with her divine sense and saw the figure manifested in it. Her whole person was stunned as her eyes widened as if she couldn’t believe it.
“Miss Xue Yan, you should be no stranger to him.” Gu Changge actually didn’t expect that this Son of Luck, whom he didn’t care much about, would have an inexplicable connection with Hell.
The Wan Dao Business Alliance’s spies were all over the Battlefield of Hundred Realms, and many things could not be hidden from him.
In the past few days, although Lu Ming had been carefully inquiring about news about Hell, it was still very obvious to those who were interested. Especially since Gu Changge was also investigating the traces of Hell. However, in order not to startle the snake, Gu Changge did not directly send someone to arrest Lu Ming.
So he thought about it and planned to start with the destined daughter next to the Son of Luck, to see if he could follow the clues and learn what Lu Ming used to get in touch with Hell.
“Master Gu, can you tell me the reason?” Xue Yan’s expression was somewhat struggling, but she didn’t dare to refuse Gu Changge’s request.
She was a smart person and knew that she was not qualified to have an equal dialogue with Gu Changge, not to mention negotiating. Gu Changge didn’t need her consent either. Naturally, there were thousands of ways to control or threaten her. Yet this person actually turned out to be Senior Brother Lu Ming who was very familiar with her.
Generally, the two were quite acquainted, and they often discussed Dao, even though their friendship was not shallow. But in her opinion, she still had inexplicable feelings for Lu Ming in her heart.
“Because he has the imprint of someone I want to find, so I want to find that person through him. Don’t worry, I have no malice towards your senior brother.” Gu Changge replied with a smile, taking a sip of tea.
Naturally, he would not say that he wanted to find the location of Hell through Lu Ming. There was no need for Xue Yan to know these things.
“So that’s how it is.” Xue Yan nodded slightly with a serious expression, but she didn’t fully believe Gu Changge’s words in her heart.
She also knew that in her capacity, it was impossible for Gu Changge to tell her all the reasons. The only thing she could do was obediently follow the instructions of Gu Changge.
Although Gu Changge looked gentle and elegant now, judging from many rumors, his methods were as ruthless as an unrivaled monster. Then, Gu Changge ordered Qing’er to hand Xue Yan a contact jade talisman.
There were special restrictions, which could be used to perceive her traces and actions. In addition, many things about Lu Ming could be passed on through this contact jade talisman.
Of course, the most important thing was that if Xue Yan dared to reveal all this, the people on Gu Changge’s side would immediately notice it and take action to deal with it.
“Working for the Young Master, the benefits will naturally be indispensable to you.” Qing’er put the contact jade talisman in front of Xue Yan.
There was a bit of a smile on her face, although Xue Yan was still no different from an ant in her eyes. But because of Gu Changge’s relationship, she could no longer belittle her at will and make fun of her.
“I see.” Xue Yan nodded and took the contact jade talisman, but her heart was a little heavy.
Originally, she thought that Gu Changge had other intentions to summon her at night. After all, she was thinking too much. Given Gu Changge’s status, what kind of woman in the Upper Realm had he never seen before, so how could he be tempted by a woman from the Lower Realm?
“This is a lot of enlightenment tea, Miss Xue Yan, please take it back for your senior brothers and sisters.”
After seeing Xue Yan agreeing, Gu Changge smiled and had no intention of keeping her, so he issued an order for her to depart.
Xue Yan was a little hesitant, she couldn’t even imagine the value of this pot of enlightenment tea. But since it was given by Gu Changge at will, it was like an ordinary spiritual fruit wine, and she was not pretentious. After thanking her, she took the teapot and left.
The third treasurer who led her here before was still waiting for her at the gate of the palace. Seeing Xue Yan coming out with enlightenment tea in her hand, he couldn’t help showing a bit of envy in her eyes.
In his capacity, he would have to pay a huge price for a single sip of Enlightenment Tea. Apart from Gu Changge, there were probably not many people in the huge Upper Realm who could afford such a luxury.
Of course, except tonight, Gu Changge ordered Qing’er to boil two pots of tea, and he would naturally have a chance to taste this mysterious tea later.
After Xue Yan left, the smile on Gu Changge’s face also disappeared in the palace. His eyes were a little deep, revealing a bit of thought as he told Qing’er behind him, “Keep an eye on everyone from the Qinghong Ancient World. In addition… I want to know all the news about that genius named Lu Ming. Also send people to the Qinghong Ancient World to control his relatives and friends, don’t let anyone go unnoticed.”
After all, he was the Child of Luck, so there might be some accidents. So in order to be safe, Gu Changge decided to control his relatives and friends first. Even if Xue Yan was exposed at that time, he still had a way to make Lu Ming compromise and lead him to Hell.
Qing’er’s heart trembled slightly, and with a serious expression on her face, she nodded and said, “Young master, don’t worry, I’ll arrange it right away.”
Qinghong Ancient World was infinitely far away from this place, but it was one of the countless Lower Realms around here, just like the tiny dust in the sand of a river, even if it was destroyed by Gu Changge’s palm, it would not produce the slightest wave, even more, if it was to control some people in it.
“Since you have appeared on the Battlefield of Hundred Realms and have not come to see me. Then I’ll go find you.”
After Qing’er went down to order this matter, Gu Changge also dismissed the rest of the people in the palace. He looked at the shining moon outside and shook his head lightly, before taking a step and disappeared.
Su Qingge’s matter surprised him a bit. Now this accident must be resolved by himself.
Although the territory of the Battlefield of Hundred Realms was vast and boundless, if Gu Changge really wanted to find someone, especially someone who had practiced forbidden demonic arts, it would be a piece of cake.
…
“The Token I gave you is still easy to use. You are indeed the inheritor of demonic arts. How many days have passed, and your aura has become so much stronger?”
At this time, in Hydra Region, in an extremely quiet courtyard, in the Battlefield of Hundred Realms. Lan Yifei, the Daoist of the Dao Immortal Alliance had appeared. He was tall and handsome, with a refined and indifferent face as he said with a little admiration.
“How did you know I’m here?” Su Qingge stood in the distance, shrouded in black mist. One couldn’t see her face or figure clearly as it was extremely blurry.
Her expression was indifferent, her voice was extremely hoarse, and no one could tell whether she was a man or a woman.
“Behind Hydra Region is my Dao Immortal Sect, so you can’t hide your presence from me here.” Lan Yifei smiled.
Su Qingge regained his composure and said, “Aren’t you afraid that I would have killed you when you came looking for me?”
“I’m not afraid, you don’t have the ability now either. I came to you because I wanted to know the identity of the true inheritor of demonic arts.” Lan Yifei shook his head and said.
During this period of time, he had already studied the part of the forbidden demonic arts given to him by Su Qingge and felt that a door to practice that he had never seen before was slowly opening in front of him.
He also didn’t suppress the intention of cultivating in his heart. Finally, he couldn’t help but find a few corpses of powerhouses to cultivate.
As a result, this cultivation was out of control, and he even had the idea of letting him destroy the previous foundation and rebuild it with demonic arts.
Therefore, he wanted to know the identity of the true inheritor of demonic arts, so as to obtain the complete forbidden demonic art.
“I will tell you when the time is right, but now is not the time.” Su Qingge said lightly and had no intention of informing Lan Yifei about this.
Lan Yifei frowned and replied, “Do you think I really won’t take action against you?”
Now he had some doubts about whether Su Qingge knew who the true inheritor of demonic arts was, or if she was just a pawn kept in the dark. That was why she came up with such a reason to delay him.
“Then you can give it a try.” Su Qingge’s expression remained calm, without any change.
Although she was not Lan Yifei’s opponent before, during this period of time, she devoured a lot of geniuses on the Battlefield of Hundred Realms, which made her cultivation improve deeply.
“You really won’t cry until you see the coffin. Unless the real inheritor of demonic arts shows up, you will never be my opponent, especially if you are still on the territory of my Dao Immortal Sect.” The smile on Lan Yifei’s face gradually turned cold, and his tone was not polite.
“Oh, then you can try and see if you can kill me.” A disdainful smile appeared on the corner of Su Qingge’s mouth, but it was a pity that her clear and absolute face was covered with mist, making it hard to see clearly.
Lan Yifei frowned very tightly. To be honest, he didn’t want to fight Su Qingge here, because he couldn’t tell whether Su Qingge had any backhands or cards.
“Then why have you been so reluctant to tell me the true identity of the inheritor of demonic art?” His tone was not kind, with a bit of doubt.
A look of disapproval flashed across Su Qingge’s eyes, but she recovered quickly and said calmly, “You just need to know that you are… not qualified to know who he is.”
If Lan Yifei knew that Gu Changge was the real inheritor of demonic arts. Would he still have the courage to snatch the complete forbidden demonic art from his hands?
He wouldn’t dare to, even if he was given another hundred courage.
“You…” Lan Yifei didn’t know what was going on in Su Qingge’s heart, he just felt that he was belittled by her, and his face was slightly ugly.
He almost laughed out in anger and wanted to make a move so that Su Qingge could understand the disparity in strength between the two.
“It seems that you are looking for me?” But at this moment, a strange spatial fluctuation suddenly appeared in the courtyard, accompanied by a young man’s voice.
Su Qingge’s face under the mist changed drastically in an instant, turning pale all of a sudden.
