Chapter 447: Blatant Slander

After making up his mind, Gu Sheng went directly to the south.

Dense forests, mountains, villages...

In order to hide his whereabouts, Gu Sheng tried to walk as much as possible to avoid being discovered by the Saint Master of the Ji Family and other Ji Family leaders.

Dozens of days later, Gu Sheng came to a large capital in the southern region.

The capital was bustling with people, including many cultivators.

"Huh..."

Gu Sheng let out a long sigh, "Let's settle here first. If we meet the Ji family, we can also use the way we called on cultivators to fight against Ji Hui at that time to avoid the sharp sword."

Then, Gu Sheng came to an inn and planned to fill his stomach first.

Gu Sheng stepped into the door of the inn, and a strong smell of wine and meat came to his nose.

"I'm so greedy..."

Gu Sheng smacked his lips and looked around.

The inn was very lively, and the guests were drinking and having fun, or talking in low voices, a prosperous scene.

"Boss, first a pot of wine and a plate of peanuts."

Gu Sheng shouted to the boss at the counter.

The boss was a middle-aged man, who responded with a smile on his face: "Okay, sir, wait a moment."

Gu Sheng found a corner to sit down, tasting the wine while observing the surrounding environment.

He noticed that the inn was very lively and there was no trace of the Ji family.

"It seems that the Ji family did not notice my arrival."

Gu Sheng secretly rejoiced in his heart.

"Sir, the peanuts and Huadiao wine you asked for."

A waiter brought these foods up.

"Another two pounds of beef, and a bowl of sauerkraut noodles."

Seeing that there was no danger, Gu Sheng continued to order.

"Sauerkraut...sauerkraut noodles?"

The waiter was slightly stunned.

"What?"

Gu Sheng looked up and asked.

The waiter showed a professional smile and explained: "Sir, I'm really sorry, we are in the south, and the store does not prepare noodles. Why don't you try our rice, which is also unique."

"Uh..."

Gu Sheng was stunned.

Then he suddenly realized that he had come to the south.

Gu Sheng nodded to show his understanding.

So he changed his words and said, "In that case, let's have two bowls of rice."

"Okay, two bowls of rice!"

The waiter responded, quickly noted Gu Sheng's request, and turned to run to the kitchen.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."

Gu Sheng picked up the Huadiao wine in front of him and took a sip.

The mellowness and aroma of the wine left in his mouth.

He looked through the window of the tavern, looking at the bustling streets outside, and couldn't help feeling a lot of emotions in his heart.

Ever since he escaped from Xiaoyao Gate and failed to cross the void, it was like a dream.

Everything here is completely different from everything he is familiar with.

Whether it is the local customs or cultural customs, they all make him feel unfamiliar.

Gu Sheng knows that he needs to adapt to the local customs now.

Only by adapting to the environment here can he survive better.

His eyes returned to the tavern, watching the diners around him chatting and laughing, and his mood gradually relaxed.

Soon, the waiter brought up two pounds of beef and two bowls of rice.

Gu Sheng looked at the steaming rice and his appetite increased greatly.

He picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of beef, and ate it with peanuts and rice.

The delicious beef, the crispy peanuts, and the soft rice greatly satisfied Gu Sheng's taste buds.

While he was eating, he was thinking about what he should do next.

Where to go in the vast East Wasteland?

Just as Gu Sheng was thinking about it, several people sitting next to him began to discuss.

"Have you noticed? The various sects seem to be more nervous these days."

"Isn't it? It's all because of that... what's that name? Yes, Gu Sheng! It's called Gu Sheng."

"Yes, I heard about it too. This kid is really manly. Not only did he challenge the Ji family alone, but two elders of the Ji family also died in his hands. He is really not an ordinary person..."

"Tsk! He will have a good harvest. The whole East Wasteland is wanted. This is not a trivial matter!"

Listening to these people's discussions, Gu Sheng was secretly surprised.

He didn't expect that his news would spread so quickly.

Calculating the distance, it was at least tens of thousands of miles.

The only explanation for the news being able to spread here so quickly was that there were already people from the Ji family here!

"Huh..."

Gu Sheng let out a sigh of relief and quickened his eating speed.

If he was discovered by the Ji family before he had even filled his stomach, it would be a big loss.

"Bang bang bang..."

Suddenly, the sound of a rapid gong rang out.

"Gu Sheng was arrested! Gu Sheng was arrested!"

"Go and watch the excitement! Gu Sheng was arrested by the Ji family! Execution immediately!"

Shouts came from the street.

The diners were stunned when they heard this.

"What? Gu Sheng was arrested? Arrested by the Ji family? And he's going to be executed?"

One of the diners stood up suddenly, with a hollow look in his eyes.

After being stunned for two seconds, the diner rushed out directly.

"Hey! Why are you in such a hurry?"

His companion shouted.

"Gu Sheng is my idol, I want to see him off!"

The diner who rushed out said without looking back.

"Uh... this kid..."

His companions were speechless and followed him out.

Gu Sheng looked around and saw that all the diners had gone to watch the fun, leaving only himself.

But at this moment, Gu Sheng was really speechless. Is there another me?

"Waiter! Check out!"

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, he flew away directly.

In this way, following the crowd, we walked through the bustling streets and arrived at the bottom of a high platform.

Crowds had already gathered around the high platform. Their eyes were focused on the high platform and they were talking about it.

"Is this Gu Sheng?"

"I've never seen him before, but I've heard of him before. He's a man!"

"Well, I also admire people like him!"

The crowd standing next to Gu Sheng whispered.

When Gu Sheng heard this, he felt a little happy in his heart.

He didn't expect that he would become somewhat famous.

It seemed that when he looked up, he saw a person who looked almost exactly like him standing on the high platform!

The man was wearing similar clothes to himself, and even the expression on his face was perfectly imitated.

"this……"

Gu Sheng was shocked, could there really be another him?

While he was wondering, a sea-blue figure flew to the table like lightning.

Gu Sheng took a closer look and saw that it was a man wearing a navy blue cultivator's robe.

He was holding a gleaming steel sword and looked majestic.

At first glance, Gu Sheng thought it was Ji Haoyue.

But after seeing it clearly, I realized that I didn't recognize this face.

"Uh-huh!"

The cultivator in navy blue clothes instantly put the knife on the fake Gu Sheng's neck with a look of contempt on his face.

"Gu Sheng! You have today too!"

The sea blue cultivator said coldly.

Gu Sheng's face instantly turned pale, as if he had lost his soul.

"Everyone, I, Ji Haiyue! The Holy Lord has an order. If you catch Gu Sheng, you can kill him directly! Now this person has fallen into my hands. In order to rectify the reputation of my Ji family, I will carry out the Holy Lord's order in this capital!"

Gu Sheng, who was standing in the audience, heard these words clearly.

Ji Haiyue......

Gu Sheng had heard Ji Ziyue mention before that this was one of his cousins ​​who was good at ice magic.

Compared with Ji Haoyue, his ability was still a little behind.

Didn't expect to see him here.

However, the fact that he calls himself "my true self" shows that he is arrogant and arrogant, which corresponds to the cold and ruthless nature of the ice spell he practices.

What made Gu Sheng even more puzzled was, why did he do this?

Does he really think that Gu Sheng on the table is real?

Or is this intentional?

Gu Sheng frowned slightly, planning to stay put and see what he was going to do.

"explain!"

Suddenly, Ji Haiyue let out a loud roar.

Gu Sheng suddenly asked tremblingly: "Senior, what did you say...?"

"snort!"

Ji Haiyue snorted coldly and continued to scold: "Tell me what kind of person you are!"

"I……"

Gu Sheng was stunned, his whole body was like chaff, and he almost peed in fear.

"I...I colluded with the members of the Demon Clan, deliberately went against the Ji family, and wanted to be the lackey of the Demon Clan. Before, I molested my junior sister in Taixuanmen and stole Taixuanmen's treasures..."

Gu Sheng said these shocking remarks on the stage.

When Gu Sheng heard this, his eyes suddenly widened.

It turns out that what Ji Hai Yuerang did under the guise of Gu Shengzhao was actually to smear his reputation.

"My darn thing!"

Gu Sheng was furious, ready to rush up and have a good fight with Ji Haiyue.

Suddenly, Gu Sheng took a deep breath and calmed down.

He realized that this might be a trap carefully laid by Ji Haiyue, and he couldn't act impulsively like this.

After all, Ji Haiyue has never met him, how does he know so much?

Besides, what’s fake is fake!

Afterwards, Gu Sheng continued to stare closely at the fake Gu Sheng on the stage, thinking about countermeasures.

"What else is there! Tell me quickly!"

Ji Haiyue scolded again.

"I, I also arranged explosives in the Fire Territory, intending to destroy most of the Eastern Wasteland, and then rule the Southern Territory with the Monster Clan!"

Fake Gu Sheng's voice echoed on the high platform, his words full of malice.

"ah?"

When everyone in the audience heard this, they started talking.

"Oh my God, Gu Sheng is so cruel and cruel, he actually wants to destroy Donghuang!"

"How could he do this? He is simply our enemy in the Southern Region!"

"This kind of person, no matter how talented he is, cannot be allowed to live in this world!"

"Kill him! Kill him!"

Discussions came like a tide...

Gu Sheng's face became increasingly ugly, and his fists clenched loudly.

If Gu Sheng is allowed to be smeared like this, his reputation will be completely destroyed.

"Enough!"

Gu Sheng finally couldn't help it, and his voice exploded like thunder.

Everyone present was stunned by the sound.

"Whoosh!"

In an instant, Gu Sheng's figure appeared on the high platform like a bolt of lightning.

At this time, Gu Sheng's eyes could almost spit fire, staring at the fake Gu Sheng.

"Who are you? Why are you pretending to be me and slandering my reputation?"

Gu Sheng asked coldly.

"I...I..."

Gu Sheng was so shocked by Gu Sheng's momentum that he was speechless for a moment.

"You faker, how dare you slander my reputation, Gu Sheng, today I will let you taste my power!"

Gu Sheng said, a light flashed in his hand, and the Fire Spirit Dagger instantly appeared in his hand.

"Wait a moment!"

Ji Haiyue suddenly stood in front of fake Gu Sheng.

"Gu Sheng, you finally showed up."

Ji Haiyue sneered and said, "Your behavior has aroused public outrage, what else do you have to say?"

"Ji Haiyue, your methods are too despicable. You actually used such despicable methods to deal with me."

Gu Sheng pointed the fire spirit dagger at Ji Haiyue, thinking of killing him!

"Ha ha……"

Ji Haiyue smiled disdainfully: "To succeed as a king or lose as a bandit, the means are not important, what is important is the results. Today, you, Gu Sheng, are destined to be ruined."

"call……"

Gu Sheng took a deep breath.

Now is not the time to argue with Ji Haiyue, he needs to prove his innocence.

Even if you die, you can't get a bad reputation!

"Everyone, listen to me, this guy is fake. I, Gu Sheng, have never done anything to betray Donghuang, let alone collude with the demon clan."

Gu Sheng said loudly to everyone in the audience.

Some of the people in the audience began to waver. After all, Gu Sheng was their hero before.

"Hmph, that's nonsense. What evidence do you have to prove your innocence?"

Ji Haiyue said provocatively.

"Evidence? I don't need evidence, because I have never done those things, but you, Ji Haiyue, what evidence do you have to prove that I have done those things?"

Gu Sheng asked rhetorically.

Ji Haiyue was speechless for a moment, but she didn't expect Gu Sheng to be so calm.

Then, Ji Haiyue sneered: "Gu Sheng, let me ask you, the Peacock King is a powerful figure in the demon clan, why is he so nice to you?"

"Being good to me is a matter between us. It has nothing to do with you."

Gu Sheng looked disdainful.

"Okay, okay!"

When Ji Haiyue heard this, she clapped her hands and applauded, and then said coldly: "'We' is a good word to use. It seems that you and the Monster Clan really have an ulterior secret!"

"No means no!"

Gu Sheng retorted.

"Then you find a witness? Prove that you don't have it. Otherwise, how can everyone believe what you say?"

Ji Haiyue raised the corners of her mouth slightly, her face full of pride.

Gu Sheng narrowed his eyes and secretly summoned up his magical power, preparing to kill Ji Haiyue to prevent him from talking nonsense.

Just when Gu Sheng was about to take action, a familiar voice suddenly remembered.

"I can prove it!"

Gu Sheng turned his head and saw Ji Ziyue flying over in purple gauze.

"Ji Ziyue, it's Ji Ziyue!"

"What's going on with the Ji family? Why are there so many people here suddenly?"

"She's so beautiful. It would be great if she could be my wife..."

Ji Ziyue's appearance surprised everyone present, and also aroused some people's lust.

She is a well-known genius in the Ji family and is also Ji Haiyue's cousin.

I just don't know why she suddenly appeared here.

"Ziyue, what are you doing? Do you want to help outsiders deal with your brother?"

Ji Haiyue's face turned ugly.

He didn't expect that his sister would stand up and help Gu Sheng at this time.

Ji Ziyue glanced at this brother and looked very unhappy.

"Brother, Gu Sheng has not colluded with the demon clan, let alone done those things."

Ji Ziyue's eyes widened, anger in her tone.

"Get down here! Now! Immediately! Immediately!"

Ji Haiyue's tone became sharp. (End of chapter)
