Chapter 241

Chapter 241: Still has a Conscience; Just a Disciple?

Yue Mingkong didn’t think so without any basis.

Needless to say, how precious the Pure Worldly Lotus was; even the Human Ancestor planned painstakingly for it for a long time.

After so many efforts and setbacks, he finally found a suitable place for its growth in the Tianchen Realm, so that he could refine it after it matures.

But why did the mysterious existence she didn’t even knew, after refining the Pure Worldly Lotus, left the equally precious lotus seeds?

Yue Mingkong was very confused, looking at the few seeds in the depths of the lotus’ body, all kinds of thoughts flashed in her mind.

‘Did that mysterious existence accidentally forgot about them?’

‘Is that even possible?’

Soon, she shook her head, thinking it was impossible.

This was too far-fetched.

After all, even the Reincarnation of the Human Ancestor lost against him, and in the Tianchen Realm no less – the place where the Human Ancestor laid down many methods and backhands.

Would that mysterious existence make such an obvious mistake?

Also, Yue Mingkong had already felt a vague sense of familiarity before.

Women have always believed in their own intuition and Yue Mingkong was no exception.

So, she frowned immediately, almost concluding that this was definitely left by the mysterious existence for her.

But she has never seen their true face at all, and she was not even sure who the mysterious existence was.

She couldn’t understand why the other party would leave them for her? Was the monstrous figure warning her not to approach the Yuhua Heavenly Pond his doing too?

They had never even seen each other.

Therefore, now, there was only the last possibility left; the mysterious existence was the Supreme Immortal who was suspected to have fallen in the Yuhua Heavenly Pond.

‘But why would he do that…’ Yue Mingkong frowned, feeling that she was getting close to the truth.

It seemed as if the Supreme Immortal’s fall was nothing but a sham, a deliberate attempt to confuse the world and numb the Reincarnation of the Human Ancestor – Jiang Yang.

This kind of plotting instantly reminded Yue Mingkong of someone. It was none other than her beloved fiance – Gu Changge!

Besides Gu Changge, who else has such a means to kill the Human Ancestor on the place of his reincarnation?

As she connected the dots, the truth surfaced!

‘Changge!’

‘There is no one else who can do this…’

Yue Mingkong gritted his teeth a little, almost instantly concluding.

Except for Gu Changge, she thought about all the possibilities, but she couldn’t think of anyone else who had such a terrifying means.

She suddenly got angry.

This unscrupulous guy had been secretly hiding from her for so long!

But thinking that she was also secretly hiding from him in the Lower Realm, Yue Mingkong couldn’t complain.

After all, she was also in the wrong, although she did hold the idea of solving the human ancestor’s reincarnation and help Gu Changge, but Gu Changge did not know about it.

‘That man must have done something to me.’

‘That’s why he was able to know my whereabouts, even following me to the lower realm and still not show his face even once, hiding in the dark.’

‘That mysterious Supreme Immortal must also be an image made by Gu Changge.’

‘Now that I think about it… Jiang Yang falling into my trap was also noting short of miracle.’

‘Channge must have secretly helped me in that also otherwise, Jiang Yang would never come deliver himself.’

With all these things, Yue Mingkong couldn’t help rub her glabella.

She had a feeling that Gu Changge had planted spies around her, saying that he trusted her, but in fact he was still watching her movements.

When she was in the Ancient Immortal Continent, Gu Changge found her many times using this tactic.

But she had already cleared out everyone around her, so how did Gu Changge find her?

“It seems that my actions when I left the Gu Family aroused his suspicions, so he followed me.”

Yue Mingkong whispered to herself, and quickly found a point that would make Gu Changge suspicious.

It could be said that she was too hasty when she left the banquet.

Gu Changge was thoughtful and meticulous, so he would naturally notice this point.

Yue Mingkong was not in a hurry to return to the Upper Realm and explain things to Gu Changge.

Since Gu Changge had followed her all the way here, he should have seen everything she did.

Yue Mingkong didn’t believe that Gu Changge would continue to be suspicious of her.

‘But this guy is still has a bit of conscious, he atleast left behind something for me.’

After understanding this, she breathed a sigh of relief and showed a slight smile.

Gu Changge leaving these seeds behind for her was not strange at all.

Buzz!

Soon, she waved her sleeves and a burst of rainbow divine light swept across, collecting them all directly.

Afterwards, she left, intending to clear the traces that could cause trouble later and return to the Upper Realm.

Since Gu Changge had personally solved the biggest hidden trouble named the Human Ancestor, she had nothing to worry about.

Now that Gu Changge didn’t want to see her, she also knew that by her own methods, it was impossible to find Gu Changge.

It seems that some things could only be asked after returning to the Upper Realm.

However, she was worried that with Gu Changge’s temperament, he would outright refuse to accept the fact he was in the Lower Realm, saying that all this had nothing to do with him. Moreover, he might even blame her for sneaking to the Lower Realm……

It can be said that Yue Mingkong had a very clear understanding of Gu Changge’s temperament, not to say that she fully understands him, but she had a good grasp on it.

Gu Changge leaving her the Pure Worldly Lotus’ seeds were already enough to prove that she had a place in his heart.

This made Yue Mingkong very happy.

She, who had always been indifferent in front of her subordinates, couldn’t help showing a faint smile today, depicting a picturesque beauty with an unparalleled elegance.

[On the other side]

After being shot down into the Yuhua Heavenly Pond by that grey fog in the sky.

Yaoyao’s temperament of indifference was nowhere to be seen.

She had once again become that weak girl who couldn’t even kill a chicken.

And now she was slowly falling into the depths of the lake.

Powerless and desperate, let alone struggling, she could not even exert a trace of strength.

The terrifying pressure that came from above could still be felt in the depths of the lake.

Under that kind of pressure, all living beings could only choose to kneel on the ground and dare not move.

Yaoyao knew that with Grandma Yinhua’s strength, she won’t be able to save her at this time. Maybe Grandma Yinhua rushed and fought against that terrifying figure to save her, but she was already drowning before that.

They have already torn faces with Jiang Yang, so it was impossible for him to save Grandma Yinhua.

Thinking of these things, Yaoyao was a little sad.

Speaking of which, this had nothing to do with Grandma Yinhua.

She came here with her and could have stayed outside, but because of her, she put her life on line here.

‘After all, that kind of terrifying existence, I am afraid that apart from the master, no one can defeat it, right?’

Yaoyao felt she was going to die here, to accompany master, Grandma Yinhua, and her elder brother Jiang Yang, who was long gone…

Soon, a scene flashed in her mind.

It was a scene where she and her big brother were playing as a child, there were also days when she spent time with Grandma but more than everything else, there were scenes of her accompanying master and the time spent with him.

“Yaoyao can’t avenge you, Master…”

“I’ll see you soon.”

At this moment, the thing she regretted most was not finding any trace of Gu Changge.

Neither not being able to kill Jiang Yang, nor not being able to avenge her master and brother but the fact she could not find any clues about her master was the one she regretted the most.

Buzz!

Yaoyao closed her eyes tightly and did not notice between her eyebrows, a peach petal-like pattern was blooming with dazzling brilliance, illuminating the dark lake bottom.

There was a strange light emerging.

A peach tree rooted in endless chaos could be seen faintly, where the divine chain of laws hung down.

It was at this moment that Yaoyao felt that she had fallen to the bottom.

But why didn’t it feel like falling in the mud, instead it was so warm?

It was not as cold and dark as she thought it would be.

It was like when she fell from the sky that day and fell into her master’s embrace.

She wanted to open her eyes.

But the next moment, a gentle voice suddenly sounded in his ears, like a clear spring flowing over a rock, natural and warm.

“Why is this little girl so disobedient? Didn’t I asked you to wait for me in Xianlun Sacred Land, why did you sneak here alone?”

Hearing the familiar sound, Yaoyao suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the scene in front of her in disbelief.

She didn’t know when the nearby lake had been emptied, forming an absolutely gentle space.

And the man in white who spoke in front of her and caught her, was none other than her master.

“Impossible, isn’t master already dead? Could it be that this is the legendary underworld? Am I seeing master in the underworld…?”

Yaoyao looked at all this in disbelief, and then murmured softly, thinking that she was already dead, that’s why she saw Master in this place.

‘But master… he looks really good!’

‘No wonder one can’t see his true face usually. He needs to cover it so that no one can see it.’

‘Otherwise, if women saw it, wouldn’t they be scrambling to be his mistress?’

Thinking of this, Yaoyao suddenly felt a little happy. Although she died, she finally fulfilled a lifetime wish of hers.

She was finally able to see what her Master looked like. She has always known that Master should not be very old.

He couldn’t be that old fashioned and sullen elder.

Thinking these, she suddenly didn’t know where the courage came from, she stretched out her small hand to touch the master’s face, to see if he was a ghost.

It seemed as if she wanted to see if the master in front of him was real or fake.

However, a hand stood in front of her and hit her on the head.

At the same time, it was accompanied by a slightly helpless voice.

“You little girl, what are you thinking about? Your master is so powerful, how can he die? And even if you die, your master can bring you back even from the underworld.”

“Huh?!”

Yaoyao’s little head couldn’t comprehend, how could the master suddenly say such a thing, could it be that all of this was an illusion?

Or was the master really not dead? And she was wrong about it.

“Master…”

Yaoyao intended to speak and ask again.

However, the next moment, the master in front of her suddenly moved, and with a wave of his robe, the whole lake began to shake, as if it was pushed away by a pair of invisible hands, and they were isolated.

After that, he took her to the sky and quickly left this place.

Looking at the scene in front of her, no matter how slow Yaoyao’s reaction was, this time she had already reacted.

“Master… Master… you are really not dead…”

She couldn’t help but brust into tears while speaking, like raindrops on a pear blossom, hugging Gu Changge tightly.

Everything was fine as long as he was alive.

During this period of time, emotions of worry, anxiety, grief, and sadness erupted together, as if the dam had burst, and the tears could not be stopped at all.

“How could master die? What are you thinking?”

Gu Changge touched her head helplessly, his voice was unprecedentedly gentleness, and then said, “It seems that during this period of time, when the master was away, a lot of things has happened.”

“I’m sorry, Master made you worry.”

At this time, he definitely couldn’t say that he had been hiding in the depths of the Yuhua Heavenly Pond and was enjoying the show.

Anyway, he told Yaoyao that he had an accident at the time and was trapped here, unaware of what was happening outside.

Gu Changge didn’t know what to say to this pure and kind girl, so he could only give her as much compensation as possible in the future.

Since he was her master anyway, he naturally wouldn’t abandon her.

Either way, it’s the same.

And even if he didn’t show up just now, Yaoyao would be fine. As Dao Fruit, the power she just showed was only a small part of it.

How could it be possible for her to drown in lake water?

It’s just that she doesn’t know it herself, and was in fear all the time.

Hearing Gu Changge’s words, Yaoyao cried even more, as if she wanted to cry out all the sadness and grief this time.

Gu Changge shook his head slightly. At this time, he slightly passed the Immortal aura to her so that she doesn’t get harmed by the power she just displayed.

It was easy to do this in the state of great sorrow or joy.

Soon, Yaoyao slowly recovered.

Remembering the disrespectful act she had just done, her face turned a little red.

She looked up.

Those flawless eyes like black gems stared at Gu Changge, “Master, don’t leave Yaoyao alone next time, okay?”

Seeing her almost pleading tone, Gu Changge shook his head slightly and smiled.

Then he said warmly, “How could master leave you alone? Didn’t master promise you that even if you can’t cultivate, he will support you?”

“Little girl, what are you thinking all day? You are my disciple, understand?”

When Yaoyao heard this, she was a little stunned, she was not happy for some reason.

She said in a low tone, like she was devastated.

“Yaoyao is just a disciple to Master…”

“Of course, but didn’t I tell you that sometimes the master can be more closer than relatives?”

Hearing this, Gu Changge touched her head, and his voice was as gentle and calm as ever.
