When the Immortal Suppression Army was killing enemies in the depths of Spacetime, they came across many ancient beasts in the Ancestral Dao Realm. As such, they had a lot of combat experience.

 

Chu Gucheng did not expect the Immortal Suppression Army to be able to harm Gu Changge when he gave the task to them. He just wanted to let the guests find out how powerful and terrifying Gu Changge was so that they would join forces with him and go against Gu Changge.

 

“Since the Primary Hope Saintess has said I’m a remnant of the Black Disaster, she should step forward and accuse me right here. Or, she should provide some convincing evidence at the very least. We won’t believe any accusation without evidence.”

 

“Perhaps it’s the way those from the Land of Celestial Suffering have come up with to deal with me or the Imperial Celestial Palace. Or, is the Land of Celestial Suffering the one which has collaborated with the remnants of the Black Disaster?”

 

Gu Changge stood in front of the ruins. His clothes were spotless. He did not care about what the Immortal Suppression General had said as he only responded with a smile.

 

Many figures shot into the sky. When they saw what was going on from a distance, they were shocked and doubtful. At this point, they were not sure if the news they had received was true or false.

 

The Primary Hope Saintess had initially said the Heavenslayers Alliance had nothing to do with the remnants of the Black Disaster, but she changed her stance all of a sudden at a later time.

 

Many people were swayed. Some were even doubtful.

 

Although the Primary Hope Saintess was like a Transcendent being to them, she was not as convincing as she used to be when she changed her stance so quickly.

 

“Even the Primary Hope Saintess cannot claim that someone is a remnant of the Black Disaster without evidence. Since she’s said so, she should show us the evidence. The Primary Hope Saintess was not even born yet when we were going against the Master of the Black Disaster during the Endless Epoch. What right does she have to doubt our stance?” Ling Yuxian refuted icily. Her dress swayed with the wind. There was a hint of coldness on her alluring face.

 

Ling Yuxian was a straightforward person, to begin with. She was vexed that she was almost humiliated earlier. So what if the other party was the Primary Hope Saintess? She was only a Junior to Ling Yuxian. The Primary Hope Saintess’ Master, Xi Nu, was the one who was their ally from the same era.

 

“The Young Ancestor is right. Where’s the Primary Hope Saintess? Tell her to come here. All of us respect her. As long as she can provide evidence to prove that Young Master Gu has anything to do with the remnants of the Black Disaster, we’ll sever ties with him and help all of you capture him.”

 

Since Ling Yuxian had made her stance clear, the injured Elders from the Imperial Celestial Palace had to defend her.

 

The Founder of the Imperial Celestial Palace would get out of her secluded cultivation and make an appearance soon. Yet, those from the Land of Celestial Suffering were audacious enough to humiliate them like this. They had no regard for the Imperial Celestial Palace at all.

 

The incident in this place shocked everyone in the capital of the Land of Celestial Suffering. While astounded, many people were coming over.

 

What happened that day was too shocking and inconceivable.

 

The Beast Court and Purple Sky Mountain had come to attack. Did those from the Land of Celestial Suffering want to drag the Imperial Celestial Palace into this mess as well?

 

Many wanted to know why the Primary Hope Saintess suddenly changed her stance. Did she have any evidence to prove the Heavenslayers Alliance had something to do with the remnants of the Black Disaster?

 

“Evidence? The Heavenslayers Alliance hasn’t only occupied the Immortal Spirit Civilisation but also its surrounding territories. The entire area is always covered in black fog, looking like Hell. Now, the Heavenslayers Alliance Leader has come to Primary Hope Civilisation and joined forces with the Beast Court to devastate the Land of Celestial Suffering. He’s using the same trick to plunge Primary Hope Civilisation into chaos. Everyone can see what he’s done. Do you need me to state each of his crimes? The Primary Hope Saintess is a Transcendent being. You don’t have a right to doubt her.”

 

Chu Yuan knew that he wasn’t a match for Gu Changge, so he had to be decisive. His tone was firm. The moment he finished speaking, he told the soldiers behind him to form a formation.

 

The murderous intent tore apart the universe as though it came from the Nine Nethers, making people fearful. It was a wonder how many people these soldiers had killed.

 

Gu Changge smiled. “Why are you in a hurry to destroy me? I’ve been on good terms with the Primary Hope Saintess. As far as I’m concerned, she’s not such a ruthless person. I wonder if she’s been threatened and forced to say whatever you want her to say.”

 

He did not conceal anything, so those in the capital could hear him.

 

This was the doubt that they had in mind. Nevertheless, they felt that those from the Land of Celestial Suffering did not have the guts to make a move against the Primary Hope Saintess.

 

Many guests were swayed, but they still felt that it was unlikely to be the case.

 

Now, they would have to see if those from the Land of Celestial Suffering were lying or if Gu Changge was pretending to be calm.

 

Chu Gucheng frowned in the palace. He knew that it was not the right time to deal with Gu Changge today.

 

However, he was worried that things would get out of control, especially when the people he had sent to kill the Champion General’s trusted aide went missing the day before. He suspected that it had something to do with Gu Changge. Worried that Gu Changge would derail his plan, he decided to remove this threat first.

 

He took a look at the graceful ‘The Primary Hope Saintess’ beside him.

 

He had no idea if Gu Changge and the Primary Hope Saintess were indeed on good terms. Perhaps Gu Changge had merely spouted nonsense.

 

Nevertheless, he needed the Primary Hope Saintess to step forward and take control of the situation so that all of them would join forces to destroy Gu Changge.

 

Presently, the ‘The Primary Hope Saintess’ instantly understood Chu Gucheng’s intention. She hovered in the air and left the palace. She soon stepped into the outside world.

 

Although the Great Pill of Reincarnation and Creation was abstruse, the memories from the Primary Hope Saintess in her mind were unclear. It was merely a vague contour which ensured her identity would not be exposed.

 

Therefore, Chu Xinyue was not certain about how close the Primary Hope Saintess and Gu Changge were, but according to her vague memories, she knew that Gu Changge was not lying.

 

The Primary Hope Saintess indeed had a lot of memories about Gu Changge. Some vague memories even showed that the two had frequently come into contact.

 

Soon enough, a figure as graceful as the Moon Fairy landed in front of the ruins where the people of the Imperial Celestial Palace used to stay.

 

Her white clothes were spotless and her beauty was ethereal. Behind the veil, she frowned and looked dispassionately at Gu Changge who stood in front of the ruins.

 

When she recalled her dead younger brother at that moment, a hint of fury and resentment flashed across her eyes. Still, she suppressed her emotions and said calmly, “The Heavenslayers Alliance is made up of the remnants of the Black Disaster. They’ve committed many atrocities like killing people and destroying the homelands of many cultivators for their vested interests. Everyone has the right to destroy them.”

 

All of them were shocked when the Primary Hope Saintess showed up and said such a thing. They wondered if the rumours that had been spreading since the morning were actually true.

 

“What evidence do you have to prove that there’s a connection between the Heavenslayers Alliance and the remnants of the Black Disaster? You can’t make a judgement without providing any evidence.” Ling Yuxian was not afraid of the Primary Hope Saintess’ authority. She stared coldly at her.

 

“Well, you can’t make a judgement either. If everything I’ve said today is untrue, I’m willing to be punished by Heaven. I’ll suffer the fire of Unending Karma and have my Dao Heart destroyed.” The Primary Hope Saintess swept an icy glance over Ling Yuxian. Her tone was emotionless.

 

Ling Yuxian did not expect the Primary Hope Saintess to have the guts to take a Dao Oath in front of so many people. She turned to look at Gu Changge, only to see a faint smile on his face.

 

He was still calm and collected even though the Primary Hope Saintess had shown up and said such a thing.

 

[Is everything the Primary Hope Saintess has said true?] She felt her head buzzing as the idea sprang into her mind.

 

Knowing what was on her mind, Gu Changge asked with a smile, “Do you believe me or her?”

 

Ling Yuxian turned to look at him and replied without hesitation, “I believe you, of course.”

 

Gu Changge smiled upon hearing that. His immense aura swirled around him as though a boundless black hole was evolving right there.

 

He said, “Those from the Land of Celestial Suffering have committed many crimes and falsified the truths. They’ve collaborated with the remnants of the Black Disaster. I’ll expose your true colours today on behalf of everyone in the Boundless Expanse.”

 

“All the Forces in Primary Hope Civilisation depend on each other for survival. I hope everyone will understand it and join Forces with me to destroy this Demon!” Chu Yuan was furious upon hearing that. He growled as his hair radiated a golden celestial glow. He was like an Immortal, and an Immortal Light swirled around his armour.

 

He made a move as his Dharma Body traversed across Heaven and Earth. It covered the sky and continued expanding beyond the borders of this world. Galaxies seemed to be whirling around behind his gaze. The Power of Spacetime spread. He stood at the peak of the Great Dao, looking down at all the living beings.

 

At this moment, he showcased his power as a being who had gone through his Sixth Decay Tribulation. His power in the True Dao Realm was so immense that everyone had the urge to worship him.

 

*Boom!* The River of Time was destroyed as Chu Yuan made a move. He took control of time and turned it into his weapon. As he wielded his weapon, Heaven and Earth fell apart and the universe trembled.

 

Behind him, the Immortal Suppression Army formed a formation. Their murderous intent came at the enemy like a jet of destructive Sword Qi coming from the depths of the universe.

 

The people in the palace looked intently at what was going on.

 

Although people like he Dharma Sage and Elder Jin were Ancestral Dao Realm experts, they did not have the confidence to defeat Gu Changge.

 

They could not see through Gu Changge. Even Old Lady Xing Ying from the mysterious Ardent Ruins Cave was wary of him.

 

Since Chu Yuan had made a move, Chu Gucheng looked at the guests and cupped his fists. “All of you can see how powerful the Heavenslayers Alliance Leader is. None of us is able to defeat him. Although we’re in the Land of Celestial Suffering, I still don’t have the confidence to destroy him. The Primary Hope Saintess is on our side. I hope everyone will join forces with me and kill the Heavenslayers Alliance Leader, thus removing this scourge from the Primary Hope Civilisation.”

 

As he closed and opened his eyes, a golden light radiated from his gaze.

 

Wisps of Principles flowed around his clothes. His immense aura surged as he was ready to head to the battlefield and help.

 

Just then, a hidden ancient cultivator from the Boundless Expanse said with a solemn expression, “King Chu has a point. I’m afraid the Immortal Suppression General isn’t a match for the Heavenslayers Alliance Leader. We should seize the chance to collaborate and defeat him.”

 

The people from different Forces in Primary Hope Civilisation were tempted when they heard Chu Gucheng’s words.

 

They could tell that Gu Changge was so powerful that none of them could deal with him. Only when they joined forces did they have a chance to defeat him.

 

“The remnants of the Black Disaster is a menace to the world. Since he has the guts to show up in the Land of Celestial Suffering and has no regard for all of us, we have to make him pay the price.” An ancient cultivator from the Rising Dawn Civilisation nodded, ready to make a move.

 

He was not only worried about the living beings in the Primary Hope Civilisation but also those in the Rising Dawn Civilisation.

 

The Land of Celestial Suffering was powerful and they might even rule over the entire the Primary Hope Civilisation one day. It was a good idea to be allied with them.

 

People from Forces like the Towering Divine Cave, Bright Light Temple, and Tathagata Buddha Realm did not express their stance. They only watched everything from the sidelines.

 

“That’s great. Everyone, please destroy this Demon with me, then.” Chu Gucheng was high-spirited as he waved his hand and laughed.

 

As he stepped forward, rays of light emerged from the depths of the palace like broken pieces of armour and covered his entire figure, including his face.

 

At this moment, Chu Gucheng was full of vitality as his body radiated a golden glow. He was like a deity in the Mortal World who was worshipped by many. His divine might was boundless.

 

He did not care that some guests still refused to make a move because he had achieved his goal.

 

After Chu Gucheng left the palace, the people behind him also set off. They included guests in the Dao Realm from other True Worlds and people like the Dharma Sage and Elder Jin.

 

He rose into the air and crossed a long distance with only a few steps. Soon enough, he stood in front of the ruins and confronted Gu Changge from a distance.

 

All of them carried with them boundless and inscrutable auras. The capital of the Land of Celestial Suffering trembled.

 

Countless, regardless of their cultivation levels, shuddered in fear.

 

These experts stood at the top of the world. Three Ancestral Dao Realm experts had shown up to make a move.

 

The people of the Imperial Celestial Palace were shocked. When these Dao Realm Elders felt the immense pressure, they almost lost their balance. Since even the Elders could not keep their composure, the others were naturally fearful.

 

Just one Ancestral Dao Realm expert could make their opponent despondent, not to mention that there were three of them. One of them was the King of the Land of Celestial Suffering, Chu Gucheng. With the blessing of his Kingdom’s Fortuity, he was more powerful than an average Ancestral Dao Realm expert.

 

“Those from the Land of Celestial Suffering seriously think they can do whatever they want!?” Ling Yuxian said through clenched teeth with an icy expression.

 

She stood beside Gu Changge. Although she did not feel the pressure, she knew that this kind of power was horrifying to the extreme.

 

…

 

“Young Master Gu is right. King Chu is about to make a move against him!”

 

“Also, the Second Princess who has disguised herself as the Primary Hope Saintess is too brazen. Not only has she claimed that the members of Heavenslayers Alliance are remnants of the Black Disaster, but she has also proposed a political marriage with the Land of Celestial Suffering!”

 

Presently, people like Han Feng and Chu Bai, who were watching everything from the old minister’s home, were worried and anxious. They did not expect such a shocking incident to happen after only one night.

 

Chu Gucheng had shown up and collaborated with the other Ancestral Dao Realm experts to deal with Gu Changge.

 

The old minister was white-haired and energetic. Although he was not tall, he was elegant.

 

“Everything has descended into chaos…” Even though the old minister was not good at cultivating, he was talented in receiving enlightenment in the Dao. His achievements were not inferior to those of people who focused pure cultivation.

 

His voice was shaky as he watched everything.

 

People like Han Feng and Chu Bai had informed the old minister of what had happened the day before. The old minister initially did not believe them.

 

However, they told him that Chu Gucheng had collaborated with the Dharma Sage and the others to scheme against the Primary Hope Saintess and trap her. Then, he let Chu Xinyue disguise herself as the Primary Hope Saintess and show up in front of everyone. Only then did he believe their tale.

 

What happened that day verified their statement.

 

Han Feng and the others did not forget about their goal for this trip. They did not even have a right to watch the battle between Ancestral Dao Realm experts, let alone have a hand in it.

 

They could only find out the culprit who had harmed Chu Heng’s Wife first.

 

Nevertheless, they were surprised to find that the corpse of Chu Heng’s Wife was not in the old minister’s home. Instead, it had been sent to the Royal Tomb.

 

The Champion General had made many contributions. Chu Gucheng gave his Wife an important title so that her corpse could be placed in the Royal Tomb. As such, they did not have a way to get their hands on the matching jade. It wasn’t like they could barge into the Royal Tomb.

 

“Had I known the jade was so important, I would’ve kept it.”

 

The old minister was regretful. He did not know that the jade was key to finding out the truth behind his Daughter’s death.

 

Now, he could only request to see Chu Gucheng and ask for permission to retrieve his Daughter’s item from the Royal Tomb.

 

“He won’t agree to it. The person who intercepted and tried to kill us was the King’s trusted aide. The King has indeed taken everything into consideration. Even if his trusted aide failed his mission, he could still destroy Lady Chu’s corpse and the jade.” Chu Bai said icily.
