*BANG!* The Seventh Princess’ hair came undone, her body was covered in blood, and her face looked like that of an evil spirit. She had been thrown before Gu Xianer after Gu Changge sealed her cultivation. This scene suddenly brought a pause to the fights that were taking place in the surroundings.

 

“Seventh Princess lost…” All the members of the Ancient Sea Family had terrified looks as their minds shuddered at the outcome. Right now, they felt as if the sky had collapsed to the ground. They were extremely afraid and simply could not believe their eyes.  

 

The Seventh Princess, with the might of an immortal, had no match in the Ancient Sea Family. Her talent was so terrifying that it was rare for someone to be comparable to her. But just when she came out to be part of this occasion, she had ended up losing miserably. She had suffered the first crushing defeat in her life. It was also very likely that she would die here, as Gu Changge had already killed many young prodigies so far. It was impossible for him to spare her. Everyone knew that Gu Changge was very powerful due to his well-known feats, but they really did not think that Gu Changge would be strong to this extent. It made them feel terror and desperation.

 

“Master is the Avatar of a True Immortal, bound to stand at the highest peak as he looks down on the countless worlds. How is it possible for a mere Seventh Princess of the Ancient Sea Palace to be his opponent?” Among the cultivators that were fighting just now, a creature that looked like a malevolent spirit spoke as he let out a cold laugh. Right after, he tore the creature that belonged to the Ancient Sea Family before him into two halves. Blood poured down like rain, making the scene appear extremely cruel.

 

His words made the creatures from the Ancient Sea Family turn even paler. Their faces looked devoid of blood as they grind their teeth while shivering in fear. The great formation enclosing all everyone from the Ancient Sea Family in sight also disappeared at this time and the strong smell of blood drifted out. It was an extremely tragic scene with corpses lying everywhere, and the vast majority of them belonged to those from the Ancient Sea Family. All the cultivators felt frightened to death as they looked at the result of the fight that had broken down. 

 

There was no doubt that what happened here today was going to cause a great sensation. It was going to shock people across the Celestial Ancient Continent, terrifying a large number of young prodigies. The powerful and indifferent Seventh Princess of the Ancient Sea Palace had chased after Gu Changge’s cousin to kill her, but then Gu Changge showed himself at the critical moment and defended her, killing off all from the Ancient Sea Family. Even the Seventh Prince was not his opponent and was defeated immediately! No one knew how strong Gu Changge actually was, as it took him no effort to deliver a crushing defeat to someone as powerful as the Seventh Princess. The power he displayed seemed to be matchless as he could suppress and kill others just by lifting his hand. No one got to see him using his true skills. It was this point that was most shocking to the people from the young generation, as they could not even perceive Gu Changge’s real strength.

 

“I’m afraid that he’s already joined the ranks of the Taboos. Since time immemorial, the highest level of existence among the young prodigies, with strength that transcended the normal limit, have been called the ‘Walking Taboos’. The Walking Taboo, what majestic words!”

 

One of the cultivators could not help but say with a trembling voice. He had an attitude of extreme reverence towards Gu Changge. One needed to prove themselves with their battle strength to be a the Walking Taboo. They were the people that were absolutely going to be a taboo existence in the future. Such a person would at most only appear once in hundreds of thousands of years, despite the fact that there were many supreme factions in the Beyond! There was no doubt that Gu Changge’s performance had frightened other cultivators so much that they felt like calling him with this title. A person would not become a the Walking Taboo just by having powerful talent. They needed to prove that their strength was great enough to defeat everyone of the same realm. There were even those who had the power to battle with people two great realms higher than them. 

 

A Walking Taboo could annihilate someone as strong as a young prodigy with no effort at all! Did not Gu Changge show the battle strength of a Walking Taboo in the fight just now? All the cultivators felt their scalp tingle and their mouth running dry, unable to utter a single word.

 

“It has been so long since we last heard the words ‘Walking Taboo’. To think the current young master of the Gu Family has reached that level…”

 

A large number of cultivators said with a trembling voice. It was due to the reverence and fear they were feeling right now. They wondered what kind of shock and commotion it would cause once this information spread. They had already expected what was going to happen next. Unless there was another person from the young generation who had reached that taboo level, Gu Changge was going to become a great, terrifying mountain standing tall above everyone else.

 

“Gu Changge, is this you letting me do whatever I want with her?” Gu Xianer still looked a bit shocked as she could not help but ask with a note of disbelief in her voice.

 

Gu Changge had casually thrown the Seventh Princess with her cultivation sealed in front of her as if he was simply throwing a dirty rag to her. Without her cultivation, the Seventh Princess was like a poisonous snake with its fangs taken out. No matter how ferocious she was, she had no power to kill left. At this moment, Gu Xianer blinked her eyes repeatedly as she looked even more suspicious. There was something fishy about this. Although she was touched to see Gu Changge come rescue her, it was very likely that things were not as they seemed considering his nature.

 

“Gu Xianer, is this the right attitude towards someone who saved your life?” Gu Changge asked with a faint smile as he looked at her. Her porcelain-like face that looked exquisite and flawless was still very pale and there were traces of blood at the corner of her mouth. She did look to be in a good condition at the moment.

 

“Gu Changge, you think I’ll thank you for what you did? No chance. I’d have been safe and sound even if you didn’t come, hmph!” Gu Xianer regained her cold and aloof expression. She seems to be really asking to be beaten up and put in her place.

 

It was obvious that she was happy and extremely excited when he appeared to save her. It had made her so glad, that the sense of loss she had been feeling these past days had disappeared completely. But she was not willing to concede in front of Gu Changge, even if it was just saying a few words of thanks. Gu Changge was her great enemy after all. Besides, she was speaking the truth. She could have left the place safely even if he did not come.

 

“You’re really asking for a beating, huh? Gu Xianer, did you forget the lesson I taught you that day?” The smile on Gu Channge’s face vanished as he glanced at her. His desire to thrown her down a latrine pit and keep her trapped there for a few years became stronger at this moment.

(Silavin: latrine pit, in other words, pit filled with feces)

 

As soon as Gu Xianer heard his words, she felt shame and anger. Even though only she, Yue Mingkong, and Gu Changge were present at the place when it happened, only Gu Changge would dare to hit her like that. She never experienced such disgrace in her whole life.

 

“Don’t be so proud of yourself. There will come a day when I’ll rub your face against the ground to give you a taste of your own medicine.” She had anger on her face as she muttered in a soft voice. She no longer only hated Gu Changge, at least not on the same level as she had just left Peach Village. Right now, her complicated feelings for him had become a source of worry for her. It was not like Gu Xianer did not understand these feelings she had. It was just as her Third Master said. ‘All good-looking men were tigers’.

 

“Gu Xianer, you’re asking for a beating, right? You really think you can do that to your older brother with that insignificant ability of yours?” Although Gu Xianer had said the words in a very small voice, it was obviously impossible for Gu Changge to not be able to hear them. His mocking skill had always been perfect. Even the Great Elder of Skyward Schloss, with his extraordinary state of mind, was on the verge of fuming with anger when he used it. How could he not make a silly girl go crazy with rage?

 

Gu Changge spoke in an indifferent tone without holding back, “If you really want to take revenge, prove to me that you’ve the ability to do so. Don’t disappoint me. Otherwise, you won’t even get the chance to follow closely behind me like before.”

 

Gu Xianer had a stiff expression when she heard his words. She recalled that when she was little, she used to always follow behind him. Gu Changge was very indifferent back then and he would not even pay any attention to her. It really hurt her feelings but she still continued to gladly follow behind him. Gu Xianer fell silent as she thought about it. She would have definitely become furious upon hearing his words if her state of mind was still the same as when she left Peach Village. 

 

She would have been seething with killing intent. But right now, she did not feel much hatred. On the contrary, she was very calm, so much so that she herself found it inconceivable. Having seen some of Gu Changge’s actions, there was absolutely something about the matter in the past that he had been hiding all along. All the members of the Gu Family loved her back then, except for Gu Changge, who was indifferent and distant to her. Thinking about it now, Gu Xianer found it very strange. It was very likely that Gu Changge was acting so on purpose. Just so that he would have the heart to dig out her Daoist Bone. 

 

[Why did he do it? Why did he not just kill me instead of giving me a slim chance of survival? Even now, he seemed to be trying to deliberately infuriate me in order to make me hate him.] It had to be acknowledged that Gu Xianer’s imagination power was simply astonishing. She was carrying out analysis on various things in her mind. On the Supreme Peak of the Skyward Schloss, Gu Changge had almost lost his life to her sword, despite the fact that he was clearly powerful enough to dodge or block it. Afterwards, he seemed distant and indifferent to her, as if he was looking at a stranger. [But, if that’s the case, why did he come to my rescue when I was in danger? Is he not contradicting himself?]

 

“Gu Changge, don’t think that you’ll be able to hide things from me forever. I’ll investigate that matter and bring the truth to light. After that, I’ll take my revenge in a fair manner by winning against you.”  Gu Xianer said as she stared at Gu Changge without blinking. She was already convinced that he was hiding some secret from others.

 

“Gu Xianer, you’re reading too much into things.” Hearing her words, Gu Changge shot her an indifferent glance. But him acting like this only served to make Gu Xianer more convinced of her guess.

 

Gu Changge looked composed on the outside, but he could not help but burst into laughter inwardly. He could guess what Gu Xianer was thinking, as everything was progressing as he had expected and planned. At this time, System notification resounded in his mind.

 

<*Ding* The Fortuitous Lady Gu Xianer has changed her point of view about you. You earn 1000 Fortuity and 5000 Fatums.>

 

It made a thought-provoking smile appear on his face. A stubborn and silly girl had her limits after all. She was confused and disoriented just by some of his little tricks. He really did not get how her masters were all right with letting someone like her go out to seek revenge.

 

“Gu Changge, what do you want to do with her?” Gu Xianer asked as she looked at the Seventh Princess, who was in a very sorry condition. She was planning to act according to his suggestion. Now that Gu Xianer believes she had ‘understood’ the situation, the way she thought of Gu Changge had changed a lot. One could also not sense any deep hostility in her voice when she asked him the question.

 

“Do you not know how you should be addressing me?” Gu Changge glanced at her when he heard her words. While he had been very lenient with Gu Xianer usually, he definitely had a limit to his tolerance. He was not going to let her treat him in whatever way she wanted. It was time for him to teach her that one should respect their elders. However, what made Gu Changge click his tongue repeatedly was that her Fortuity was continuously increasing. This was despite the fact that she was in a situation where someone was chasing her to kill her. 

 

[Perhaps this tsundere girl, who considered everybody to be beneath her, has the talent to explosively increase her strength when she is faced with cruel and bloody situations? Could it be? That suddenly showing up myself had prevented a breakthrough opportunity for her?] Gu Changge naturally had thoughts of raising Gu Xinaer as per his desires. But looking at the situation right now, it was best to let her grow on her own. It was not a bad thing for her to improve herself even further. Of course, he was still going to continue his bullying, as it was fun to see her get angry in her heart but still feeling helpless to do anything to him. 

 

Gu Changgge was wondering whether he should arrange a ‘fortuitous opportunity’ for her later on. Like, framing her for something she had not done to help her make some enemies. In case she really could not defeat the enemies, he could appear once again to play the hero, rescuing the damsel in distress.

 

“Gu Changge, you’d better stop dreaming. Don’t think that I’ll ever call you ‘big brother’.” Listening to his words, Gu Xianer had an indifferent look. She seemed as if she had grasped the secret that Gu Changge was hiding. But she felt an inexplicable and unpleasant chill and wondered whether someone was secretly preparing to bring harm to her.

 

Gu Changge did not care about her attitude as he said with a playful look, “I’ll leave the decision in your hands whether to kill her or not. Since I’ve handed her over to you, I no longer care what happens to her.” 

 

His words sounded very simple, but there was actually more to them.

 

The Seventh Princess was clearly prepared for Gu Xianer to gain enough ‘experience points’ to level up. Even if she did not collect the points at present, she was going to do so in the future. So, no matter how else things turned out, Gu Xianer was bound to face this kind of situation again. He had also left the decision up to her in order to make the Ancient Sea Palace take their anger out on her. At that time, her masters would not sit idle. Besides, she had made use of his name earlier to scare others and make them hate him instead. He was already being quite generous by not teaching her a lesson with his own hands. How could he allow Gu Xianer to set up a trap for him?

 

“Hmph, I knew you didn’t save me with good intentions.” Gu Xianer let out a snort. She also understood Gu Changge’s intention. The Ancient Sea Palace was considered a supreme force that ruled countless members of the Ancient Sea Family. As such, Gu Changge must not want to take the blame for killing the Seventh Princess. He had already done what he could. She still needed to be the one to deal with the revenge of the Ancient Sea Palace. [He’s still a guy with bad intentions.]

 

“Your brother travelled thousands of kilometres to save you and yet you’re giving him the cold shoulder. Gu Xianer, you truly make your brother disappointed in you.” Gu Changge said in a leisurely and teasing tone. He did not seem to be embarrassed in the slightest even when she saw through him. Sometimes, she was very silly, and other times, she was very sharp. It made him unable to refrain from bullying her.

 

“Seventh Princess, do you see how I was right? I said that if you dare touch me, all of you will die.” Gu Xianer had a composed expression as she said with a smile while looking at the Seventh Princess, who was pale, frightened, and desperate at the moment.

 

“Don’t kill me. I’m willing to serve you…” The Seventh Princess begged continuously with reluctance and desperation. There was no sign of her aloof expression on her face at this time. Gu Changge had already knocked her off her pedestal and her Daoist Heart had crumbled as well. Although she still had her last life-saving item, it was impossible for her to use it as her cultivation was sealed. Right now, there was only death waiting for her. The Celestial Ancient Continent opened and the young generation fought with each other to prove themselves better. It was natural that the victor would get to live and the loser would meet their death.

 

“It’s too late for that. You should have thought of the consequences when you wanted to kill me.” Gu Xianer had no change in her expression. The huge, black blade appeared and its edge teared through the air as it sliced her apart.

 

The sound of blood gushing out could be heard as it sprayed everywhere! The Seventh Princess of the Ancient Sea Palace perished on the spot!
