Chapter 990: The effect comes before the cause, as for the past, it is not important (please subscribe)
Chu Lian had some doubts and confusions in his heart, but he was more cautious and careful.
He tried to talk to the spirit of the Ambition Ball in his mind, but at this moment the spirit seemed to be asleep and did not respond to his questions.
There was no way, Chu Lian could only calm down and wait and see.
He didn't know whether the terrifying existence mentioned by the Ambition Ball Spirit would be among the people in front of him.
Chu Lian noticed that the actions of the Spirit Emperor and the handsome young man in front of him seemed to be very close, as if they knew each other.
Just now, the two of them were standing side by side on the top of the mountain, whispering something.
And the black-robed old man with unfathomable strength is probably the old servant of this young man, responsible for protecting his safety.
As for the enchanting and charming woman, she is probably his maid.
From this point of view, this young man must have an extraordinary origin, either rich or noble.
When Chu Lian asked, his junior sister Mingxiu smiled and explained: "Brother Chu Lian, this is Mr. Gu, he is Miss Huang's cousin. Miss Huang is waiting here because she is waiting for Mr. Gu."
"Cousin?"
Chu Lian was stunned, and the surname Gu?
This is a very rare surname. He has never heard of any family with the surname Gu?
He was a little cautious.
At this time, Gu Changge also retracted his gaze on Chu Lian, as if he knew what he was thinking, and smiled faintly: "Ling Huang did mention Brother Chu Lian to me. I admire your lofty ambitions."
The Spiritual Emperor also smiled at this time and explained: "Mr. Chu Lian, don't worry. My cousin has always admired people like you and praised all kinds of people with aspirations. I mentioned your affairs in front of my cousin before, and my cousin also appreciated it. He felt it was necessary to come and see you."
"And this time my cousin and I just happened to have something to do, and happened to meet you on the way, so I waited for my cousin to come here."
Chu Lian's eyes swept over the Spiritual Emperor and Gu Changge, and he felt that the two did not look like cousins.
Because Gu Changge's eyes looking at the Spiritual Emperor were too plain, and there was not much intimacy.
It was like giving people a feeling of looking down from a high position, as if he had been in a high position for a long time and was in charge of life and death.
"So that's how it is. Could it be that Mr. Gu is also dissatisfied with the current atrocities of the Lingxu Royal Family?" Chu Lian withdrew his thoughts and asked with a cupped hand.
No matter what the relationship between Gu Changge and the Spiritual Emperor is, the most important thing for him now is to leave here as soon as possible.
The spirit of the Ambition Ball did not respond to his question.
Chu Lian guessed that it might be that terrifying existence that had returned. The spirit of the Ambition Ball did not dare to show any abnormality, fearing that there would be flaws and be discovered by it.
"Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. The Lingxu Royal Family has wasted people's money and caused dissatisfaction among various tribes. Sooner or later, they will be retaliated."
Gu Changge still smiled faintly.
He was indeed a little surprised. When he just landed here, he seemed to be noticed by something.
So he concealed his breath later and did not show any abnormality.
Gu Changge guessed that this might be because of the treasure on Chu Lian's body.
The treasure has spirits and has chosen its master. The moment he arrived, it noticed something and reminded the current owner.
Logically speaking, if such a spiritual treasure knows that a powerful being has come, it will generally choose a new master.
After all, a good bird chooses a tree to live in, and a good minister chooses a master to serve.
Many times, it is not the master who chooses the treasure, but the treasure that chooses the master. Although Chu Lian is somewhat special and his fate is unpredictable, his current strength is indeed too weak. If someone robs the treasure, he will not have the strength to protect it.
This treasure will choose to warn him as its master, but there is another possibility, and it is temporarily unable to choose a new master.
Or, Chu Lian has been recognized by the treasure?
The second possibility, in Gu Changge's view, is not realistic.
He plans to find an opportunity to communicate with this treasure. After all, this is a treasure that can turn an ordinary person into an outlier. With his current strength, he can't refine it, and its origin must not be simple.
And just now, when looking at Chu Lian, Gu Changge was basically certain.
Chu Lian's current qualifications have indeed transcended the restrictions and can be called an outlier.
This anomaly is not like Ni Chen in Daochang Zhenjie, who artificially concealed the destiny and created an "anomaly illusion".
But because he became the owner of the treasure, he was a real anomaly.
"I wonder if Master Chu Lian has found the relic of his parents that is very important to you?"
At this time, the Spirit Emperor spoke, with some concern, and cleverly changed the subject.
Chu Lian heard it and also reacted, shook his head and said: "I just went to the most likely place to fall, and looked around, but didn't find anything. I guess it must have been picked up by someone long ago, or it fell somewhere else."
As he said, he showed a bit of regret.
Mingxiu also comforted him at the right time: "Brother, don't be sad, maybe one day you will find that the thing may not have fallen, or you may have forgotten it somewhere."
Chu Lian smiled reluctantly, looking like he was in a bad mood.
Although he had some doubts about Gu Changge's identity, it was difficult to find out. Neither the old man in black robe nor the charming woman were existences he could compete with.
Then, Chu Lian spoke, intending to leave here first, and asked the Spirit Emperor where he was going next. If we were on the way, let's go together.
The Spirit Emperor had already sent people to keep an eye on Chu Lian's itinerary and knew where he was going next, so he directly named a place.
"Great, Miss Huang can travel with us again." Mingxiu shouted happily.
Chu Lian has a lot of affection for the Spirit Emperor, and it is quite good for him to be able to travel with a beautiful woman.
It's just that he wasn't sure about the relationship between Gu Changge and Linghuang. Not only did they ride in the same carriage, but even when they got on the carriage, Linghuang was half a step behind, letting Gu Changge get in first.
Chu Lian noticed this detail and became even more curious about Gu Changge's identity.
Moreover, the Spirit Emperor seemed to respect and fear the old man in black robes.
Since they are cousins, it stands to reason that the identities of Emperor Ling and Gu Changge should be similar, but why is there still such a hierarchy?
"It's a pity that the spirit of the Ball of Ambition is ignoring me now. Otherwise, I could have asked it and listened to its opinion." Chu Lian got on his horse and followed the team at the end, leaving the area. barren mountain.
He had never thought about whether Gu Changge might be the terrifying existence that the Great Vision Ball Artifact Spirit said.
In his eyes, the possibility of the old man in black robe and the charming woman was actually greater.
There is actually space on the carriage, which is not as narrow as it seems from the outside world.
Gu Changge sat cross-legged on a futon, looking thoughtful.
The Spirit Emperor was sitting on his knees in front of him, making tea and not daring to disturb Gu Changge's thoughts.
There is a forbidden formation in this space that blocks all perception and deduction.
Even if it exists in the Dao realm, it is difficult to peek into the situation inside.
"How is the army that has been recruited now?"
Gu Changge seemed to have returned from his thoughts, glanced at the Spirit Emperor, and asked.
"Ancestor and the others have issued an order. The powerful men from all over the world are coming to answer the order and will be gathering soon." The Spirit Emperor said respectfully.
Until now, she still doesn't know which side of the real world Gu Changge plans to attack.
If it was the Zhenjie they had targeted in advance, they wouldn't have sent so many troops.
Although the Lingxu True World is not a very powerful ancient True World in the vast world, its foundation cannot be underestimated. It is definitely more than enough to sweep through the ordinary True World.
However, she didn't dare to ask more about this kind of thing.
Gu Changge nodded, his eyes falling on the veiled face of the Spirit Emperor.
He smiled faintly and stretched out his hand, as if intending to remove her veil.
The movement of Emperor Ling who was making tea stagnated, and his movements became stiff, and he did not even dare to move.
"Sir...sir..."
She was a little scared and didn't understand Gu Changge's sudden move, and her voice trembled slightly.
She didn't want to become Gu Changge's dependence, or something like a cauldron.
Moreover, Gu Changge had said before that he was not interested in her.
"I don't like people being secretive in front of me. You don't have to be nervous. It's more pleasing to the eye."
Gu Changge still smiled lightly, ignoring her nervousness and uneasiness, and just took off her veil.
The Spirit Emperor breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved, but for some reason, she felt a strange feeling in her heart, which made her face feel hot.
This was the first time that this feeling had appeared in her many years of practicing Taoism. She couldn't help but raise her eyes, glanced at Gu Changge, and quickly looked back.
"When I leave the palace on weekdays, I always wear a veil and rarely show my true face to others. I don't mean to be disrespectful to you..." the Spirit Emperor explained in a low voice.
However, Gu Changge didn't seem to hear her words. He looked outside the carriage and said casually: "I know your fear and worry, and I also know that your family should be quite curious at the moment and want to know my origin. You know my plan, and you want to know even more what you want to do when I ask you to gather an army."
Upon hearing this, the Spirit Emperor quickly abandoned the messy thoughts in his mind and listened attentively.
She didn't know why Gu Changge suddenly said these words to her.
On weekdays, Gu Changge was very indifferent to her and the ancestors of the Lingxu royal family.
Now it seems that something has suddenly touched my mind?
"Your Majesty's strength is unfathomable, and it is probably difficult to find an opponent in the entire vast world. Our Lingxu Real World does not want to be destroyed and buried in the long river of time just because we resisted Your Majesty."
The Spirit Emperor carefully weighed his words and answered.
She actually got some information from the ancestors.
All the ancestors believe that Gu Changge is the Lord of Taboos, wandering in the vastness, and establishing himself as a forbidden area wherever he is.
After endless years, he woke up again, wanting to find a suitable true world to devour as blood food and restore his energy and blood.
If the Lingxu True Realm resists, it will become blood food and be swallowed by him.
"Those who follow will prosper, and those who go against will perish. You Lingxu clan are indeed quite smart, and you are also very smart."
"But I have always felt that it is better to be respected than to be feared. It's really cold to be at a high place like this." Gu Changge smiled.
For some reason, the Spiritual Emperor seemed to feel a sense of loneliness from his words, as if she was sitting alone in the ninth heaven, overlooking the vast world, with no one around her.
She considered her words again and said: "But I feel that you would not do such a thing, you have a greater purpose... In your eyes, the Spiritual Ruins Realm is not worth mentioning at all."
"Really? I didn't expect you to think so." Gu Changge smiled, with a noncommittal look.
The Spiritual Emperor felt that their clan seemed to have a deep misunderstanding and fear of Gu Changge from the beginning.
And now that she has come into contact with Gu Changge, she can better understand this change in mood. This lord... must have experienced many things. He looks young, but in fact he has experienced the vicissitudes of the ages. All his actions seem to be for something...
Otherwise, Gu Changge would not have said these words to her now as if he was touched by his worries.
At this moment, the Spiritual Emperor felt much more relaxed, as if a lot of pressure was relieved from his shoulders. When talking to Gu Changge, he no longer needed to be as fearful and considerate as before.
Gu Changge noticed the change in the Spiritual Emperor's mood at this moment, and there was still a faint smile on his face.
But there was no change in his heart, and it was as quiet as the abyss.
Since he planned to let the name of the Heaven-Destroying Alliance resound throughout the vastness, he must have a clever name and a legitimate purpose.
The Spiritual Emperor in front of him actually gave him a good opportunity.
This seemingly true heartfelt words seemed to be shortening the distance between the Spiritual Emperor and him.
In fact, it was to shape and perfect his image in the hearts of the Spiritual Emperor and others, and plant a seed in advance.
The Heaven-Destroying Alliance, with the meaning of destroying the sky, must bear the horrible cause and effect and suffer endless disasters.
Why would he be willing to establish the Heaven-Defeater League and achieve the Dao of Heaven-Defeater for no reason?
As a demon lord, he traveled in the vastness and was attacked by the existence in the origin world, and died? So he had a grudge?
That's not enough. Everything before the demon lord was blank. Who knows?
So, it is natural to trace back to his more distant past...
As for what the past is, it is not important. It is enough to let people know that there is such a past and the reason.
Because of this past, Gu Changge made a great ambition to establish the Heaven-Defeater League and wanted to use the power of the entire vastness to defeat the heaven and achieve the Dao!
Gu Changge always likes to be watertight in his actions. There must be a cause and a result. Now he wants to perfect the cause of the matter in advance for this result. .
