Chapter 1043

Chapter 1043: Envy, Jealousy, and Hatred; It’s still a bad taste

In the depths of the Vermillion Bird Region, the palace was magnificent, surrounded by clouds and mists, like an immortal land. The green lake was like a wash, shining brightly under the moonlight, making it even more clear and transparent, but now it was completely silent.

All the cultivators stared wide-eyed, watching this scene in surprise and horror. Ah Qing’s identity was not a secret in the huge Vermillion Bird Region, or even in the entire Battlefield of Hundred Realms. Many cultivators who had stayed here for a while actually recognized her. However, she was such a character who could be called the eldest lady of the Battlefield of Hundred Realms, and now she was personally accompanying a young man.

So combined with what happened in front of the Boundary City yesterday, the identity of the white-clothed man in front of them was self-evident!

“Changge…Young Master Changge…”

“Why is he here?”

Many cultivators and creatures were buzzing in their heads at this moment, and their eyes went wide open, thinking that this was unbelievable. No one expected that one day, under such circumstances, they would meet the real Gu Changge.

“It turned out to be Young Master Changge, something big happened.” The many big figures in the dark felt suffocated. They did not dare to hide their figures and hurriedly appeared, with a respectful appearance.

To put it bluntly, in the current Upper Realm, Gu Changge was definitely the most powerful and terrifying person, and there was no one else! He even needed only one sentence to change the Upper Realm.

Even those Immortal sects, sect masters of Supreme sects, and ancient existences had to be cautious and polite in front of him. Ordinary cultivators might not even be able to stand firmly in front of him. This group of extremely arrogant and domineering disciples of the ancient royal family just now was the best proof.

They dared to beat the girl in the red skirt in front of Gu Changge, blocking his way into this place. In the eyes of everyone, what was it if it was not courting death?

For a moment, many cultivators present all showed sympathy and gloated towards this group of disciples of the ancient royal family. They were so rampant usually, yet today they finally hit the iron plate. How could they still be arrogant and cocky?

“What happened? Why did this group of disciples of the ancient royal family suddenly change their attitude? What are the identities of this girl and the man in white?”

The Qinghong Ancient World people who were waiting to die in place were also stunned by this sudden scene.

Everyone stared wide-eyed and looked behind, full of doubts. From their point of view, this was a mortal situation, even if the elders behind them stepped forward, they would definitely not be able to save them. But judging from the current situation, the group of disciples from the ancient royal family in front of them looked terrified, as if they had offended some extremely terrifying person.

“Unintentionally disturbed Young Master Changge…”

“I also hope that my lord, Young Master Changge, will be generous and spare our lives.”

In front of the arena, the disciples of the ancient royal family looked at Gu Changge who was not far away. Their expressions were pale, and they were trembling with extreme fear as their souls were almost frightened away.

The disciple of the ancient royal family who had just done something to Xue Yan was even more paralyzed on the ground, his face was pale as he lost all blood, and he couldn’t help shaking.

Even if the patriarch stepped forward, he might not dare to save him, so his face was full of despair.

“You are looking for death, no one can save you today.” Qing’er looked indifferently at the disciple of the ancient royal family who had just attacked.

She didn’t even give any orders, and many subordinates who followed in the dark immediately stepped forward as turned into a shadow, swept away, and instantly took away the disciple of the ancient royal family in front of her.

Accompanied by screams of horror and despair, there was a plop on the lake as clear as a mirror in the distance, and blood suddenly splashed out.

A group of terrifying beasts, like sharks that sensed the aroma of blood as they jumped out from the depths of the lake, opened their mouths wide, and bit the disciple of the ancient royal family at once.

The terrifying bite force was like a mountain pressing down, biting off the bones and lungs in an instant, obliterating them into a cloud of blood.

“That’s it.” Everyone looked at this scene, couldn’t help but feel chills all over their bodies, and kept silent like a cicada.

There might be more terrifying beasts living in the depths of this lake. The ancient royal family, who was so arrogant and tyrannical just now, became the rations of these ferocious beasts in a blink of an eye, and they couldn’t even keep the whole body.

The rest of the ancient royal family’s disciples turned pale and were equally terrified, worried that they would be captured and fed to this group of ferocious beasts just like their partner just now.

“My lord, how should we deal with them?” Qing’er grew up on the Battlefield of Hundred Realms since he was a child, so she was naturally not a good person, and had seen all kinds of life and death fights.

Killing these disciples of the ancient royal family was nothing to her. What was more, she had Gu Changge behind me. Even if she killed an elder or descendant of the ancient royal family, she would not have to blink her eyes.

While asking, she coldly glanced at all the cultivators in front of her. Even some big men didn’t dare to look at her and lowered their heads one after another.

“Forget it, it was unintentional and they were not at fault. I’m not a murderer, so I will spare their lives.” Gu Changge shook his head lightly when he heard the words, and his expression didn’t change much.

He originally planned to watch the excitement from a distance and didn’t want to intervene in it. But he never thought that the girl in the red dress would fly upside down and land right in front of him.

If it was before, Gu Changge would have been somewhat interested in the other boy, after all, he was a genuine Son of Luck. The level of Luck was not too low and it had reached the blue level. But now that his cultivation base had reached this step, ordinary Children of Luck provided him with no benefits.

Even if he tried to kill it, he wouldn’t get much Luck and Destiny Value, and the system’s sense of existence was getting lower and lower.

“Thank you, Young Master Changge, for your generosity and grace of not killing.”

On the other side, when they heard Gu Changge say that they would spare their lives, all the disciples of the ancient royal family immediately knelt down in gratitude as if they had received amnesty.

They also secretly hated their companion who was thrown into the lake to feed the beast just now. If it wasn’t for the other party’s fault, they probably wouldn’t have offended Gu Changge for no reason.

Many cultivators and creatures around thought that there would be a good show to watch, but they didn’t expect Gu Changge to let this group of ancient royal disciples go so easily, which made them quite disappointed.

Then because of Gu Changge’s appearance, many important figures arrived one after another. Regardless of whether Gu Changge was willing to talk to them or not, they had come to visit them, so as not to leave a bad impression.

Of course, there were also many people who were curious about why Gu Changge suddenly appeared on the Battlefield of the Hundred Realms, and why he suddenly came to the arena. Could it be that he came here to choose followers, or servants or something?

There was speculation in everyone’s mind, and their moods were quite complicated.

Many cultivators in the dark were also quietly passing on the news of this place and reporting it to the people behind them.

Vermillion Bird Region was very large, and there were many dark forces, intertwined and interdependent, and the forces to which each party took refuge were also different.

“Thank you, Mr… Lord… for saving your life.”

Knowing that the crisis had been resolved, the young girl Xue Yan quickly came to her senses, and hurriedly thanked Gu Changge who was behind her.

She didn’t know how to address Gu Changge. She originally wanted to call him young master, but she was worried that the other party felt that she was trying to get close, so she hurriedly changed it to ‘lord.’

“Thank you for saving my life, lord, I am grateful.”

The rest of the young geniuses from the Qinghong Ancient World also reacted quickly when they saw this and hurried over to express their gratitude.

They were not stupid, they could see the terrifying identity of Gu Changge in front of them, probably the big man they saw at the gate of the city during the day, crossing into the city with azure dragons pulling a cart.

So even if they knew that Gu Changge was involved in this matter, but actually did nothing, they didn’t want to let go of such an opportunity to have a word with him.

“The villain was lucky enough to be saved by Young Master Changge… This is simply unbelievable…”

The man in the Confucian shirt who had a deathly face and thought that he would die tragically here tonight was also extremely excited at the moment. Everyone from the Qinghong Ancient World didn’t know Gu Changge’s identity, but he knew it!

“We were saved.” In the distance, Lu Ming, who was in severe pain and stained red with blood, walked over tremblingly, also full of disbelief.

He was already ready to fight to the death, but he never thought that the group of ancient royal disciples would be so unlucky that they would bump into this mysterious and terrifying lord in front of him.

“A group of lowly bugs, don’t come here to obstruct Young Master’s eyes, get out of here. It’s your luck that you happened to meet Young Master here tonight, otherwise you wouldn’t know how you died just now.”

Qing’er spoke with a still indifferent expression, and her eyes swept across the people from the Qinghong Ancient World, completely ignoring them on an equal footing.

Whether it was her or the rest of the cultivators, the attitude toward these Lower Realm geniuses was like treating a group of insignificant ants, and they would not have any good looks. Even in her opinion, these little bugs were not qualified to talk to Gu Changge at all.

“Qing’er is not allowed to be rude.” Hearing this, Gu Changge smiled lightly, then interrupted her with a wave of his hand, looked at the girl in the red dress in front of him, and said,

“This is the way this world is, where the weak prey on the strong, and natural selection prevails. If you don’t want to be in the same situation as today one day, where even blocking the way of others will get you slaughtered by others, then you should first make your fists bigger. At least you won’t fall so badly like today.”

While speaking, he took out a clean and tidy handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Xue Yan in front of him.

“Many… thanks for your warning, my lord.” Xue Yan looked at the handkerchief handed in front of her in a daze, and her eyes widened.

The little face that was originally pale due to the serious injury suddenly turned red, and suddenly felt a little at a loss. She never thought that Gu Changge would take the initiative to warn her so much, and even handed her a piece of a clean handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth.

“This…”

All the cultivators around also stared wide-eyed in disbelief, unable to believe the scene they saw in front of them. After reacting, everyone cast envious and jealous eyes on Xue Yan, even Qing’er was extremely envious and jealous.

She really couldn’t figure out why Master Changge said such things to such a little bug and handed her a handkerchief.

Could it be because this girl was good-looking? But in this Upper Realm, the most indispensable thing was a beautiful woman.

“Junior Sister Xue Yan…” Lu Ming, who was limping over from a distance, was also shocked when he saw this scene, and an inexplicable and nameless anger arose in his heart.

Logically speaking, because of Gu Changge, they were saved and survived. He should be grateful to Gu Changge, but for some reason, there was an indescribable hostility in his heart, as if the two of them were mortal enemies.

Especially seeing such a scene.

“Thank you… thank you, my lord.” Under the envious and jealous eyes of many companions, Xue Yan reacted hastily and carefully caught the handkerchief handed over in front of her.

In her mind, it was more than just a simple piece of handkerchief. After all, it was given to her by Gu Changge himself under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Although she didn’t know Gu Changge’s identity. But judging from the expressions of the people around, she also understood that after tonight, on this huge Battlefield of Hundred Realms, no one would dare to embarrass her anymore.

Even those high-ranking and powerful figures now smiled kindly at her. This made Xue Yan a little dazed, how could she be so lucky?

And just when she was in a daze, Gu Changge had already taken Qing’er, walked past her, and headed toward the palace complex in the depths, just like giving alms to a little beggar on the street.

By coincidence, Xue Yan didn’t know where she got the courage from, so she turned her head and asked Gu Changge, “May I dare to ask… Your name? If I have a chance in the future, I will definitely repay your great favor today.”

As soon as she finished saying this, she felt her heart beating wildly, extremely nervous as if she shouldn’t have asked such a question with her humble status. And hearing her words, everyone was even more envious. She was inexplicably valued by Gu Changge, and she didn’t even know her name.

How lucky was this? Even if it was the accumulated luck on the ancestral grave, it was far from enough.

“Oh? There’s no need to repay.” Gu Changge heard the words with a faint smile on his lips, without turning his head, he said casually, “As for the name, I think someone will tell you.”

Afterward, the envoys from the arena in front of them respectfully walked over, led the way for them, and led them into it.

“Why would he do this…”

In the dark, a slim figure wearing a bamboo hat and dressed in black had been paying attention to this scene. Seeing Gu Changge stepping into the depths of the palace, she silently looked away.

On the girl in the red dress, she vaguely saw her original shadow. In the beginning, she also came from the Lower Realm and was looked down upon by many cultivators. If it weren’t for being valued by Gu Changge, she didn’t know how much injustice and humiliation she would have suffered.

“My lord…” Thinking of this, the expression in her eyes became more painful and struggling, and then some hostility emerged, gradually covering the remaining clarity.

On the other side, under the leadership of the people arranged by Qing’er, Gu Changge quickly entered the inner palace. It was completely different from the pavilions seen outside, but this place was a roundabout underground passage!

There were steps leading to it, with spirit oil lamps on both sides, and the atmosphere was dead silent. The location of the arena was impressively underground.

“The walls here are engraved with formation patterns, which erupt at critical moments, and the power is definitely not small. It can trap cultivators in the Sacred Realm and avoid accidental battles.” Tracing Gu Changge’s gaze, Qing’er explained.

“Such an arrangement is quite deep.” Gu Changge nodded and casually scanned around. The range was thousands of miles away, and the layout was similar to that of the Colosseum, with seats on both sides.

However, it was separated by a special barrier in the middle, so it was impossible to spy on the scenes on both sides. It was such an elegant and quiet island, no one would have imagined that such a large arena was hidden there.

There were countless death row prisoners and cultivators who died tragically every day.

As for why he wanted to help the girl in the red skirt just now was only to see if there would be anything interesting between the destined girl and the original protagonist after he got involved.

In the final analysis, what he did just now was due to Gu Changge’s bad taste.
