Chapter 874: Depressed

Three days later, Sunset Canyon.

The setting sun is like blood, dyeing this desolate valley with a desolate color. The biting mountain wind whistled past, kicking up dust all over the sky, as if indicating that a storm was coming.

Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong stood side by side at the bottom of the valley, scanning the surroundings with vigilant eyes. Behind them were the solemn-looking Master Xuanfeng, Fairy Mingyue and others, as well as an ancient immortal with an immortal spirit.

"Here we come." The ancient immortal suddenly spoke, his cloudy eyes looking towards the entrance of the canyon.

A black shadow flashed like a ghost and appeared in front of everyone in an instant. He was wearing a black robe, and his face was hidden under the hood. He couldn't see clearly, but the powerful demonic energy emanating from his body made people shudder.

"You are finally here, Gu Jiuchen." The man in black robe slowly raised his head, revealing a face that was somewhat similar to Gu Jiuchen's, but with a bit more sinister and cruel expression between his brows, "I am your brother, Gu Jiuyou ”

Gu Jiuchen's pupils shrank suddenly and he looked at the person in front of him in disbelief, "What did you say? You are my brother?"

"Why, didn't those hypocrites tell you?" Gu Jiuyou sneered, "Of course they won't tell you that you are actually the son of the former leader of the Demon Sect, and they are the enemies who killed your father!"

Gu Jiuchen felt a loud bang in his mind, his vision went black, and he almost lost his balance. He always thought that he was an orphan and was adopted and raised by the Tianxian Sect, but he never thought that his life experience could be so complicated.

"You're talking nonsense!" Ye Linglong shouted angrily, "How could Brother Jiuchen be a demon from the Demon Cult?"

"Isn't it right? You can just ask him and you will know?" Gu Jiuyou pointed at the ancient immortal, "This old man should know something, right?"

The ancient immortal sighed and said slowly: "Jiuchen, when your father was besieged by the righteous way and seriously injured, he entrusted you to me before he died. I brought you back to the immortal gate, but found that you were born with demonic veins. In order to protect you, I can only seal your memory and declare you to be my closed disciple."

"So that's it..." Gu Jiuchen murmured to himself, and countless fragments flashed through his mind. Those doubts about his life experience were finally answered at this moment, but this truth was difficult for him to accept.

"Now you know, you are not a righteous disciple at all, but the young master of the Demon Sect!" Gu Jiuyou pressed forward step by step, "Gu Jiuchen, join me, avenge your parents with me, and revive the reputation of the Demon Sect!"

Gu Jiuchen's body trembled, and his heart fell into a battle between heaven and man. On one side were the elders from his sect who had taught him and trusted him since childhood, and on the other side were his biological brother whose blood was thicker than water and his parents who died tragically. He was confused as to how to choose...

The setting sun pulled the Sunset Canyon into shadow, which also heralded that Gu Jiuchen was about to fall into the abyss of fate.

Gu Jiuchen staggered, as if all his strength had been taken away, and he fell to his knees dejectedly. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on his body, but it couldn't illuminate his current haze. The belief he had always adhered to and everything he had fought for suddenly collapsed at this moment. He is like a ship that has lost its way at sea, unable to find its way back or hope.

Ye Linglong looked at him distressedly and wanted to reach out to help him, but he pushed her away. "Linglong, don't touch me!" Gu Jiuchen's voice was hoarse and desperate, "I am a monster, the son of a demon cult demon, and I am not worthy of standing next to you at all!"

"No, Brother Jiuchen, you are not a monster!" Ye Linglong burst into tears. "I know very well what kind of person you are, and it has nothing to do with your life experience. You have saved countless people and protected the dignity of the right way. You are better than Everyone is aboveboard!”

"But, the blood of the demons flows in my body, and I am their descendant after all!" Gu Jiuchen held his head in pain, and the two forces in his heart were tearing at each other, making him miserable, "If one day, I can't control myself , turned into a demon like them, then how should I face Master, face you, and face the world? "

"No, Brother Jiuchen, I believe in you!" Ye Linglong said firmly, "You will not be swallowed up by evil. The justice and kindness in your heart cannot be erased by anyone!"

Master Xuanfeng, Fairy Mingyue and others also came forward to comfort him, but Gu Jiuchen could no longer listen to any words at this moment. His heart was shrouded in a huge shadow and he could not extricate himself.

At this moment, Gu Jiuyou spoke again, his voice was low and cold, as dangerous as a poisonous snake spitting a letter, "Gu Jiuchen, I will give you one last chance to join the Demon Cult and work with me to overthrow this hypocritical righteous way. You Together, my brothers will surely dominate the world!"

Gu Jiuchen slowly raised his head, his eyes collided with Gu Jiuyou's cold eyes, and his heart stirred up a storm again. With the temptation of family affection and revenge on one side and the constraints of morality and responsibility on the other, how should he choose?

Seeing his hesitation, Gu Jiuyou raised a sinister smile at the corner of his mouth, and then said: "I know you still have concerns in your heart, but it doesn't matter, I

I'll give you time to think about it, but you'd better make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise..."

He paused deliberately and glanced at everyone present, with a hint of threat in his tone, "Otherwise, I will make your true identity public. At that time, you will become the enemy of the entire righteous path. You

There will be no place to stand! "

Gu Jiuyou's words were like thunder, exploding in everyone's ears, and everyone's expressions became extremely solemn. They knew that Gu Jiuyou was not bluffing. If he really made Gu Jiuchen's life experience public, the consequences would be disastrous...

Gu Jiuyou's words were like dropping a huge boulder on the calm lake, causing thousands of waves. Everyone was in an uproar and looked at Gu Jiuchen in disbelief, their eyes full of doubt, fear and indescribable complex emotions.

Master Xuanfeng was the first to react. He took a step forward, protected Gu Jiuchen behind him, and said sternly: "Gu Jiuyou, don't spit on anyone! What kind of person Jiuchen is is obvious to all of us. How can we allow you to slander him at will?" ?”

"That's right, devil, don't even think about sowing discord!" Fairy Mingyue also stood up to support her. With a wave of the fly whisk in her hand, a sharp sword energy came straight towards Gu Jiuyou.

Other righteous people also drew their swords against each other, angrily accusing Gu Jiuyou of his despicable behavior.

In the face of everyone's accusations, Gu Jiuyou remained unmoved. He looked up to the sky and smiled, his laughter full of ridicule and disdain. "What? You can't believe it? You can't believe that the upright leader, the head of the Tianxian Sect, is actually the son of a demon sect?"

His eyes were like poisonous snakes, scanning over everyone's faces, and finally landed on Gu Jiuchen. "Gu Jiuchen, don't you dare to admit it? Are you going to let your fellow disciples bear the infamy for you?"

Gu Jiuchen's face was as pale as paper, and his body was shaking slightly, not because of fear, but because of anger and pain. He knew that Gu Jiuyou's words were not groundless. His life experience was an eternal pain in his heart and a secret that he desperately wanted to hide.

"Brother Jiuchen..." Ye Linglong looked at Gu Jiuchen worriedly. She could feel the struggle and pain in his heart at this moment. She wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it.

Gu Jiuchen took a deep breath and tried to stay calm. He knew that at this time, he could not panic or be confused. He must make a choice, a choice related to his fate and the fate of the entire righteous path.

"What do you want me to do?" Gu Jiuchen's voice was hoarse and low, as if coming from the depths of hell.

A cold smile appeared at the corner of Gu Jiuyou's mouth. He knew that Gu Jiuchen had been shaken. "It's very simple. Return to the Demon Cult and work with me to overthrow this hypocritical righteousness and establish a new order!"

Gu Jiuchen was silent. Gu Jiuyou's words kept echoing in his mind, and his master's kind face, the trusting eyes of his classmates, and Ye Linglong's worried eyes also appeared.

What should he do?
