Chapter 923: The Quasi-Female Immortal Emperor, using these former powers as pawns
The Boundless Battlefield, bordering the Boundless Sea, seemed more like an ancient battlefield unearthed by someone. Gu Changge suspected that the former Heaven-Slaying Ancient Battlefield had been relocated using formidable divine powers.
He conjectured that this maneuver aimed to resurrect powerful beings who had perished in the Battle of Heaven-Slaying. However, the numerous battlefields posed a challenge, potentially affecting multiple real worlds during actual conflicts.
It spanned across the long river of time, burying countless mighty individuals. Resurrection was only feasible if the true identity and soul of the deceased were known.
Luo Yanxi, now composed, took a deep breath and directed her gaze toward Gu Changge. She sought clarification, “You… when did you appear?”
Her certainty grew; the Gu Changge before her must be someone like her—awakened from reincarnation, possessing memories and Dao fruit from a previous life. Judging by the memory of her past life, she surmised that Gu Changge’s strength rivaled the current Immortal Domain’s immortal kings.
Witnessing Gu Changge’s sudden appearance, the members of the Heavenly Ancient Sect were astonished. Song Yunjie, who had been attempting to converse with his younger junior sister, Luo Yanxi, couldn’t help but shiver, sensing an inexplicable fear emanating from this mysterious man.
“Since when have you been following me?”
Gu Changge smiled gently. Luo Yanxi’s tone wavered, realizing that her scrutiny had not gone unnoticed. With numerous fellow disciples and elders present, some matters were best left unspoken.After briefly considering, she said, “I believe we might be similar types of individuals, perhaps sharing common interests.”
The members of the Heavenly Ancient Sect were astonished by Luo Yanxi’s unusual initiative. This was not the reserved little junior sister they were familiar with. Could she genuinely converse with a stranger, no matter how refined and extraordinary he appeared?
“Common interests? Are you trying to engage in conversation with me?” Gu Changge’s smile persisted, seemingly impervious to changing expressions.
Luo Yanxi knew his words held no genuine interest. Discussing her origin in this setting was inappropriate. Her curiosity about Gu Changge stemmed from wanting to discern the era he awakened from. She sensed that numerous individuals like her were gradually recovering in various corners of the current immortal domain.
“I didn’t mean it that way. Perhaps we can have a meaningful conversation,” replied Luo Yanxi.
“If you wish to talk, I’ll grant you that opportunity.” Gu Changge’s light smile remained, offering no further commentary. With that, he turned and proceeded toward the vast battlefield.
Luo Yanxi hesitated momentarily before following closely, disregarding the astonished and perplexed gazes of the Heavenly Ancient Sect’s disciples and elders.
“Little Junior Sister…” Song Yuntian, who had always admired her, called out anxiously but refrained from pursuing.
Gu Changge emanate a daunting presence, freezing him in place as if the entire world had come crashing down, rendering movement nearly impossible.
Gu Changge continued walking, his presence undiminished. The elder of the Heavenly Ancient Sect, regaining his composure, decided to follow them cautiously, determined to safeguard Luo Yanxi.
The disciples shared an unspoken fear. Despite facing the perils of the vast battlefield, the enigmatic young man seemed more intimidating than the dangers ahead. The endless yellow sand rolled in the night wind, creating an eerie atmosphere.
The full moon hung high, casting an ethereal glow over the ancient battlefield, echoing with distant roars of unknown beasts.
Luo Yanxi trailed Gu Changge through the desolate landscape, the other disciples gradually disappearing in the distance. Hesitating, she glanced back, still concerned for her fellow sect members.
The boundless battlefield held memories of confronting formidable adversaries, leaving her weapons behind. While the Heavenly Ancient Sect might be modest, it was her sect in this lifetime, and she wished to spare them from harm.
“If you’re worried about them, why follow me?” Gu Changge’s smile vanished, and his intentional yet measured pace covered vast distances with each step. Luo Yanxi struggled to keep up.
“I just want to know what era you are from,” she finally confessed after a moment of silence. Her most profound concern was whether those who had fallen or perished could return.
Such a revelation might reunite her with loved ones from the past.
While she possessed fragments of her past Dao fruits, the mysteries shrouding Gu Changge and herself remained elusive.
Intrigued, Gu Changge responded, “Why do you assume I am not from this era?”
Luo Yanxi relied on intuition, asserting that someone like Gu Changge couldn’t have been born in this era. Unperturbed, he remarked, “But it doesn’t matter which era I’m from. I am more interested in the era you originally lived in.”
He wore a light smile. Earlier, he had unraveled some of her past, though specific details remained veiled in the mists of time. As a nearly ascendant and quasi-immortal emperor, Luo Yanxi’s life was shrouded in a fog that defied easy comprehension.
However, even beings of such exalted status could only partially elude Gu Changge’s insight. The female quasi-immortal emperor’s reincarnation recovery presented a unique challenge despite this. Some aspects of her origin resisted Gu Changge’s attempts to unveil them.
Considering Qing Yi’s involvement, Gu Changge entertained the possibility of a covert plot. Was someone manipulating events behind the scenes, utilizing these once-fallen powerhouses as pawns?
