Chapter 253: Vengeance of the Scarlet Demoness; Hatred from the Deepest Depths of Hell!

Ye Langtian and Ye Liuli left after they finished talking about this matter.

After all, their purpose was just to tell Gu Changge about this. The matter regarding the Inheritor of Forbidden Demonic Arts was of great importance. Even if they told Gu Changge, they still felt uneasy.

Although Gu Changge was strong, there was no guarantee he would be able to deal with two Forbidden Demonic Arts.

Many events were taking place at this time.

The All-Devouring Sky’s Battlefield attracted countless cultivators, mixed with many hidden dragons.

Among them, there was not only the Heavenly Prince Ying Shuang but also another Inheritor of the Forbidden Demonic Arts now.

When they enter the All-Devouring Sky’s Battlefield, they not only need to guard against the All-Devouring Spirits but also need to worry about the Inheritors of Forbidden Demonic Arts hidden in the dark.

The timing couldn’t be worse.

“Brother Ye, take care.” Gu Changge nodded slightly.

Just as the two left, Gu Changge’s eyes showed a rather ominous glint.

‘First, I need to find out who that Inheritor of the Forbidden Demonic Arts is.’

Although he had some guesses in his mind, he couldn’t confirm them before seeing it for himself.

After thinking about it for some time, he wrote a letter explaining a few things to Yan Ji and asked her to check it out first.

“Although it’s uncertain where the entrance to the All-Devouring Sky’s Battlefield will appear, the place where All-Devouring Sky is located can be narrowed down a bit. Now that I think about it, I need a leek who’ll guide me.”

Gu Changge couldn’t help but fall into thinking.

His conquering the All-Devouring Sky was set in stone. Even if the Forbidden Demonic Arts got exposed in the future, as long as the All-Devouring Sky was under his control, the entire Upper Realm would fear him.

Not to mention that there was no risk in his Forbidden Demonic Arts getting exposed right now.

Occupying the All-Devouring Sky was just so he can have one more trump card.

And soon, Gu Changge thought of one person:

Wang Zijin, his fellow transmigrator.

According to Wang Wushuang’s words, Wang Zijin actually came to Profound Heaven.

But for some reason, she was nowhere to be found.

However, Gu Changge knew exactly how to make her show herself.

‘Being the Favoured Daughter of Heaven with the Immortal Body, the level of Wang Zijin’s Fortune is amazing.’

‘With such a level of Fortune, Wang Zijin’s luck is certainly not bad.’

‘From the perspective of her Cultivation Base, which far surpasses the Young Supreme peers, she’d definitely get a lot of opportunities.’

Gu Changge began thinking about how to make Wang Zijin his guiding leek.

As a transmigrator, even though only her soul crossed over, she also brought that character of hers too.

She loved spitting out curses and would join in the fun just because she was bored.

Gu Changge understood this from their previous interactions.

Others might not understand what Wang Zijin was talking about but he understood her and her personality very well.

So, it was not difficult for him to plot against her, not to mention Wang Zijin was already very interested in him.

“Tell Wang Wushuang to let me know if he finds out about his sister’s whereabouts.”

Afterwards, Gu Changge called Ye Han and ordered.

“Yes, master.” Ye Han retreated.

Not long after, Gu Changge heard a message prompt from the system.

Ying Shuang’s Fortune was impaired.

This was within his expectation.

Although this amount of Fortune Value was not a lot and didn’t make Gu Changge happy at all, it was enough for him to know that Ying Shuang’s Fortune Value was decreasing.

Everything was going according to his plan.

“System, is the vision I saw in the Peach Village a few days ago a harbinger of the next Favoured Son of Heaven?”

At this time, Gu Changge remembered an important thing and asked the system.

In the vision, at the beginning, he saw a woman with silky black hair holding her knees. She looked very lonely and seemed to be waiting for someone under a dead Peach Tree.

Gu Changge felt that the vision was related to Taoyao.

But the system made him see it, so it was most likely that it was related to him too.

But Gu Changge was not sure about this kind of thing either.

Because he didn’t even know what would come out of his own memory one day.

Just like the Immortal Devouring Demonic Arts, which appeared in his mind suddenly one day.

Who could say what exactly happened in the previous life?

Was he not a sock puppet¹A sock puppet is defined as a person whose actions are controlled by another.?

Hearing Gu Changge’s question, the system couldn’t help but answer, [“This matter is beyond the scope of the system for the time being. Please change the question.”]

Gu Changge didn’t expect it to answer so bluntly.

But this answer was actually a bit tricky.

‘What does it mean that it is temporarily beyond the scope of deduction? Does this mean it’ll be able to deduce later?’

‘This damned system… is really unreliable at crucial moments.’

“Then what is the memory that emerged when I took Yaoyao as a disciple in the Tianchen Realm?”

“That should be the next Favoured Daughter of Heaven, right?” Gu Changge asked again.

Every time he encounters this kind of thing, the system wouldn’t notify him before he takes notice of the Favoured Son of Heaven himself.

Or the system tasks would only be triggered when he was very close to the Favoured Son of Heaven.

So, Gu Changge thought he might as well just test it out.

The familiar and unfamiliar feeling at the time was still fresh in his memory.

But at this moment, just as Gu Changge asked the question, a message prompt from the system sounded.

[“Ding! The host has triggered the Favoured Daughter of Heaven – Scarlet Demoness.”]

[“She had already died, and her body had sank into an endless abyss.”]

[“However, even in the most terrifying depths of hell, she couldn’t get rid of her hatred for you.”]

[“Her consciousness has returned from the darkness, and she will drown the whole world in hatred just to get her revenge against you.”]

Hearing the message prompt of the system, Gu Changge couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

What kind of Favoured Daughter of Heaven was this? How was she different from the routine he was familiar with?

‘Just how much does she hate me for her to return from an endless abyss just to take revenge?’

Could it be a matter of love?

For a whole month, Yue Mingkong tried to take revenge on him and Gu Changge was already fed up with it.

Now there was another Scarlet Demoness who wanted to seek revenge on him?

‘Sure enough, every Favoured Son of Heaven just represents Heaven’s deep malice towards me.’

“System, what about the prompt this time?” Then Gu Changge asked again.

After all, the new Favoured Son of Heaven always represents new tips.

To him, it was nothing more than leeks waiting to be harvested.

Buzz!

And the next moment, with Gu Changge’s words.

A burst of brilliance flashed before his eyes, and then some pictures appeared, but it was more like a profound memory resurrected in his mind.

— — —

At the foot of a mountain, a little girl who loved to wear red pulled her own sleeves, timidly.

Kneeling in front of a group of bandits looking terrified and desperate.

“These are your enemies, your relatives were killed by them, and your village was set on fire by them.”

“Now I have captured them all, you can deal with them however you want. Kill them or let them go, it’s up to you.”

He touched her head and said softly.

So, the little girl cut their heads off with one sword at a time.

“Master, when I grow up, I want to marry you.”

He smiled, “Let’s talk about it when you grow up.”

Twenty years later, the girl who had grown up ran to him with a painful expression, “Master, you actually arranged the bandits back then?”

There was no change in his expression, “Yes, you found out?”

The girl wanted to stab him with her sword, but she couldn’t.

She burst into tears, “I can’t…. Master, can you tell me the reason?”

There was still no change in his expression, “No.”

And the picture ended there.

— — —

Gu Changge was silent for a while, and there was only one thing to say about it.

‘It really is a bitter drama again…’

He didn’t even know who the Scarlet Demoness was.

The only thing he knew was that he was her master and that she hated him.

For no reason, there was an apprentice who wanted to take revenge on him.

In terms of strength, there definitely wasn’t any comparison between her and the reincarnation of Ye Ling, Long Teng, and Human Ancestor.

However, combined with the memory of when he was in the Lower Realm – a figure in red was knocked down into the abyss by him holding a Halberd.

Gu Changge guessed.

Judging from the many clues, the ‘him’ in the memories was still the sock puppet Demon Lord.

Therefore, maybe the figure in red was related to him from that time.

‘I can only take one step at a time.’

‘I’ll take care of this blood debt later.’

‘There’s many leeks around me, no need to worry.’

“According to the current clues, I still haven’t triggered the Scarlet Demoness yet.”

Gu Changge thought of this but put it aside for the time being.

[At the same time]

In a magnificent and tall palace, runes flickered.

There, a young man in a gorgeous robe was cultivating, he was Ying Shuang.

At this moment he was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed as wisps of Spiritual Qi gathered in rhythm with his breathing.

A faint Emperor’s phantom, extremely majestic, standing proudly on the ground, revealed an incomparable Divine Power.

“I have almost understood all the Divine Powers that Ying Shuang used before. Now, even if some people start doubting me, they will not be able to find that I am a fake.”

Ying Shuang, relieved in his heart, whispered.

Then he opened his eyes, extremely calm and peaceful and there was a sense of dignity that was beyond words.

During this period of time, he was very comfortable pretending to be Ying Shuang, and gradually even his demeanour and tone became no different from the original Ying Shuang.

Of course, what he said to Little Sister Ying Yu was that he had recovered part of his memory, and he had almost solved the drawbacks of the cultivation.

Regarding this statement, Ying Yu did not have much doubt. As for the rest of Heavenly Emperor’s Mountain, there were few who noticed something wrong with Ying Shuang.

After all, during this period of time, Ying Shuang just stayed inside the Heavenly Emperor’s Palace and didn’t dare to go out.

As for what the outside cultivator thinks about him being the Inheritor of the Forbidden Demonic Art, Ying Shuang was already used to it. This was just a suspicion right now anyways.

He did not believe that even after arriving at the Profound Heaven, there would still be people daring to take action against him.

After all, no one had seen him use the Forbidden Demonic Arts.

Everything was just speculation.

As long as there was no definite evidence that he was the Inheritor of Forbidden Demonic Arts, it had nothing to do with him.

So, Ying Shuang was in the clear.

Nowadays, the place where Profound Heaven was, be it cultivators or creatures, they were all gathered here for the quota of the True Immortal Academy.

All their attention was focused on looking out for the All-Devouring Sky’s Battlefield, they won’t care about him at all and waste their time.

In addition to him, there were many Ancient Freaks here, and this was what he needed to pay attention to.

“There is also Gu Changge. I don’t know if he discovered the little servant’s abnormality or not….”

When he thought of Gu Changge, Ying Shuang’s face darkened with jealousy.

It was still not clear to him whether the little horse-feeder, who was once him, fell into the hands of Gu Changge.

If he did, then Gu Changge probably already knows about his identity.

This makes Ying Shuang very uneasy.

It would’ve been okay if it was someone else but if it was Gu Changge, it would be difficult for him.

His opponent’s power far surpassed him.

With his current methods, how would he deal with him?

“Ying Yu went out for so long, saying that she wanted to find some information but she still isn’t back. Did something happen?”

At this time, Ying Shuang suddenly thought of Ying Yu and became a little worried.

While playing the role of the Prince, he was very satisfied with this Little Sister. Although Ying Yu’s character was a bit straightforward and she even doubted him at times, it did not affect his love for Ying Yu.

He now completely regarded Ying Yu as his own Little Sister.

Before, he was just a little servant, who fed horses, with no relatives. Except for Miss Yin Mei, who was kind to him, everyone else looked down on him.

But now, he suddenly had a little sister.

Naturally, Ying Shuang cherished her very much.

Afterwards, he got up and walked out of the hall, intending to ask about Ying Yu’s whereabouts.

However, as soon as Ying Shuang walked out, he ran into Agu and others coming back from outside the mansion.

Ying Yu, who was so drunk, was being held by two maids.

“Greetings, Young Master.”

Seeing Ying Shuang standing blankly.

Everyone’s expressions couldn’t help but change and they hurriedly greeted him with courtesy.

Although Ying Shuang was usually inside his room, he was still terrifying in the hearts of the people of the Heavenly Emperor’s Mountain.

“What’s the matter? How did Little Yu get drunk like this?”

As his eyes fell on Ying Yu, Ying Shuang couldn’t help frowning and asked.

Even from far away, the smell of alcohol was strong.

‘Ying Yu, who doesn’t drink alcohol normally, drank for the first time and so much at that?’

“Young Master, this is what happened. Soon after Miss went out, she happened to meet Young Master Changge in a pavilion, then something happened at that time. Young Master Changge took the initiative to pour her a drink and it was hard for the Miss to refuse…”

“So…”

A maid with a slight change of expression, immediately explained the ins and outs of the matter, for fear of being blamed by Ying Shuang.

“What…”

“Gu Changge…?”

After listening to this, Ying Shuang’s expression changed suddenly, and there was a sense of shock and fear in his eyes.

Then it quickly became gloomy.

He never expected that Ying Yu, who went out for only a short time, would encounter Gu Changge.

Moreover, she was forced by Gu Changge to drink and accompany him at the banquet.

‘No wonder Ying Yu, who doesn’t drink normally, is so drunk today.’

“Gu Changge”

“You are too deceitful!”

Suddenly, Ying Shuang’s expression became extremely unsightly and gloomy, and his fists clenched in anger.

The rest of the people went silent.

As an Ancient Freak – Agu, who was in the same generation as Ying Shuang, was not as afraid of Ying Shuang as the others.

He took the initiative and said with a slight change of expression, “Young Master, the situation was very special at that time. Miss’s actions accidentally caused the anger of the people, and it was all thanks to Young Master Changge, who broke the siege and dispersed everyone, that we could come back safely.”

Having said that, he glanced at Ying Shuang’s increasingly unsightly face and shook his head in his heart.

He didn’t know what had happened to Ying Shuang during this period of time. But he had lost the self-confidence and arrogance that he had before.

Even such a minor thing made him angry.

The current Ying Shuang had become the same as what was rumoured by the outside world, like a rat crossing the street, extremely embarrassed.

The patience of the Heavenly Prince was nowhere to be seen.

He didn’t even dare to go out to confront Gu Changge, and only dared to curse a few words in secret.

“You also believe in Gu Changge’s words? If it wasn’t for him, why would Little Yu have aroused the people’s anger?”

When he heard Agu defending Gu Changge, Ying Shuang’s face became even more unsightly, and he couldn’t help but yell, “You are a fool. Is Gu Changge so kind? Little Yu is ignorant, did your brains also stop working?”

Seeing Ying Shuang’s anger, everyone became silent, even Agu smiled bitterly and chose to shut up.

After all, he was just a follower, and his words cannot affect Ying Shuang’s judgement of Gu Changge.

“No matter what happened today, you better make sure it doesn’t happen again.”

Ying Shuang waved his hand, knowing that it was no use blaming them. He was so angry just now because he was worried about what Gu Changge had said to Ying Yu.

But at this moment, even without Ying Shuang realising it, the attitude of his followers towards him changed significantly.

Agu’s expression changed several times, and in the end he seemed to have determined some things in secret.
