Chapter 221
Chapter 221: Are you an Immortal?; Willing to Worship as Master?
[Inside the hall.]
"My Lord, there is a powerful cultivator hidden in this small Beishan Village, they seem to have killed all the people I previously sent over."
"According to the information that came back, there is a silver-haired old woman among those of the village who possesses more depth than meets the eye. Her cultivation base shown at that time even reached the Conferred King Realm!"
The leader of the Black Wind Bandits cautiously reported the matter. His head was lowered and eyes downcast, clearly afraid of Gu Changge's wrath.
After all, he had lost face in such a small village, which was entirely caused by his poor performance.
But who could have thought that such a strong figure had hidden themselves in such a remote location?
However, what surprised him was that Gu Changge, on the contrary, didn't seem to care about it at all based on his posture. Hands behind his back, without turning his head to react in the slightest, not even saying anything.
This made the Black Wind Bandit Leader even more uneasy.
His back was slick with cold sweat.
In front of this youth, he felt the desperate need to say one more sentence, to explain himself fully.
The man's soul trembled from the suffocating pressure.
"Oh? A silver-haired old woman?"
"Strength of the Conferred King Realm?" Gu Changge smiled a little inexplicably.
"Don't worry, My Lord, this time this lowly servant will go personally to ensure that everyone in the village will be arrested."
Hearing the youth's mysterious tone, the Bandit Leader had to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead as he spouted reassuring words.
He thought that Gu Changge would question them regarding the great loss they suffered at the old cultivator's hands.
"No need, it's none of your business. Dismissed."
Gu Changge's expression remained unchanged as he casually waved away the Bandit Leader.
He was in a good mood after hearing the news.
The clue he had been searching for about the Reincarnation of the Human Ancestor in the Lower Realm was finally in his grasp.
In a small village, a hidden master? And for some unknown reason, they couldn't take action without careful deliberation, and kept a low profile usually?
Yet at the critical moment, their real strength broke out and blocked the intruding bandits?
Gu Changge was very familiar with this kind of broken routine.
For a Favoured Son of Heaven like the Human Ancestor, if the people around him had no strong background or power, then they wouldn't be worthy of even being a supporting role.
Presumably, the silver-haired old woman might be someone who had taken in the Human Ancestor's Reincarnation during his childhood.
It could trigger a plot.
"Wait, there's something else for you to do..."
At this moment, Gu Changge suddenly thought of something and called out the head of the black wind bandit with a somewhat inexplicable expression.
The mysterious baby girl he had been looking for recently should be in this small Beishan Village.
Moreover, under his orders, the village was being besieged by a group of bandits.
In such a small place, if there were no major accidents, the cultivators in the Conferred Lord Realm could naturally protect the peace for a while.
Without his intervention, Beishan Village would have the ability to deal with even some of the relatively powerful bandits.
But a local behemoth like the Black Wind Bandits?
The two are not of the same magnitude at all.
This was the so-called 'accident'; the sudden variable.
"My lord, please instruct me."
Hearing Gu Changge's words, the Bandit Leader scurried back, bowing as he flattered, "This lowly one will do it with all my strength."
"I don't want you to arrest people. I want you to send people to the village and slaughter them all. After this is completed, you will be free."
Gu Changge's intrigued smile sent shivers down the bandit's spine, "If it can't be done, then there is no need for the Black Wind Bandit to exist anymore."
"Slaughter the village?"
The Bandit Leader's expression changed, but he didn't dare to ask Gu Changge the reason. In his opinion, a village like Beishan was completely unworthy of this esteemed figure's attention, like a fly in front of a majestic dragon.
'Could it be that the village hides some unknown secrets?'
'Slaughter the village? This wouldn't be difficult at all?'
Soon, because of Gu Changge's order, the Bandit Leader began to gather all the Black Wind Bandits.
In the name of being provoked and taking revenge, he told all his men that he was going to slaughter Beishan Village.
Boom!
The terrifying black torrent rushed out from the mountain range, bloodying the air, as it stormed in the direction of Beishan Village.
Many cities and villages along the way were frightened, as the terror of the Black Wind Bandits had always been well known in the vicinity.
For Beishan Village to have offended them to this extent, people were afraid that even if they possessed a cultivator in the Conferred King Realm, they would still not escape the fate of being slaughtered!
Many cultivators took pity on them.
'Why would you suddenly go against the notorious Black Wind Bandits?'
After Gu Changge gave this order, he also brought along his puppet servant and disappeared from the hall.
Since this would be the best time for him to make his entrance.
Heroes saving beauties, was there a more dramatic sight?
Although this kind of plot is very old-fashioned, if it was staged by him, the effect should not be bad.
Gu Changge was currently thinking about what kind of identity he should give himself this time so that everything would look seamless.
The mysterious baby girl looked more or less related to the peach tree backing Gu Xian'er. Even if the matter of his arrival at Tianchen Realm was kept secret, he might still be found out if he did not take the necessary precautions.
"However, with my cultivation speed as it is, I'm afraid I don't need to have these considerations at that time."
Gu Changge felt that with his current breakthrough speed, when he returned to the Upper Realm, he might have already reached the Sacred Realm.
And would not be far from the Great Sacred Realm either.
— — —
[At the same time, in Beishan Village.]
"Grandma Yinhua, the Black Wind Bandits said that they want to slaughter us..."
"How should we deal with this...?"
"The Leader of the Black Wind Bandit is a god! If we can't escape, all of us will die."
The current village head, at the door of Yaoyao's house, spoke to the silver-haired old woman with a sad face of despair and helplessness.
Behind him, the rest of the villagers in Beishan Village were equally desperate as well.
The bandits from the Black Wind Bandits had come by again the day before yesterday, aggressively trying to take away all the girls under the age of fifteen.
All the villagers were extremely unwilling, but who dared to resist? They didn't dare to say no.
And although Yaoyao had smeared her face with mud, she was ultimately recognized by the bandits, who wanted to take her away!
She was so frightened at that time, seeing that her brother had not yet come back. She really did not want to be captured and eaten by those gruesome bandits!
Yet suddenly, the saviour no one had thought of arrived. Grandma Yinhua, who needed to be supported often when walking, abruptly burst into action to attack the bandits.
And as soon as she made a move, she showed the powerful strength of the Conferred King Realm.
The frail old woman turned out to be a cultivating master!
Hence, the bandits were all buried there without incident, leaving no survivors. A gap of two realms existed between the strongest bandit in the group, at the Great Transcendent Realm, and Grandma Yinhua, who was at the Conferred King Realm.
There was simply no competition.
This scene had shocked everyone, and the entire Beishan Village, including Yaoyao, were stunned.
So Granny Yinhua naturally became the backbone of Beishan Village.
All hope was on her shoulders!
Before this, no one would have thought that she was a hidden master!
It's just that surprises were often followed by greater despair.
After all, the black wind bandits were far more than just that group of people, and there were even more terrifying powerhouses behind them.
One could escape on the 1st, but would not escape on the 15th.
The entire Beishan Village fell into desperation again.
Granny Yinhua smiled bitterly at the gloomy, but faintly hopeful people of Beishan Village.
"This time, I can't do anything about it! The Black Wind Bandit's Leader is a high-ranking Heavenly God Realm Cultivator, and the other nine masters are also True Gods..."
"I'm just a Conferred King, even at the peak of my realm, it's impossible to stop all of them."
She was telling the truth. If the Black Wind Bandits really planned to come to slaughter the village, even if she had feelings for the rest of the village, she wouldn't be able to care that much.
Grandma Yinhua would just take Yaoyao and run away first.
The life and death of the rest of the people didn't matter.
Granny Yinhua actually didn't want there to be such a day. Otherwise, she would not have lived in seclusion for so long, not showing her cultivation and being an ordinary old woman.
Because the enemy chasing her was much stronger than the Black Wind Bandits. Once her whereabouts were revealed, the pursuit and killing will be endless.
Hearing that Grandma Yinhua said so, everyone in Beishan Village now truly despaired.
The last ray of hope was ruthlessly cut off.
This time, there will be no miracles!
"Grandma..."
Yaoyao grabbed Granny Yinhua's sleeve, her big eyes like flawless gems showed worry and fear.
And sadness as well.
Though she was just a kid, she was very sensible and understood the meaning of Grandma's words.
When the Black Wind Bandits arrive, everyone here would die.
Nonetheless, all they could do was wait for death! This was because doing anything except that, like running away or resisting, would simply make their deaths so much worse!
Moreover, even if Grandma was a cultivator, and could find ways to escape alongside her, in front of the enemy powerhouse, their chances of escaping were still very slim.
"Don't worry Yaoyao, grandma will protect you!"
Sensing Yaoyao's fear, Grandma Yinhua couldn't help but comfort her.
But she was also desperate.
It was impossible to escape. It was impossible to resist.
At this time, she only hoped that Yaoyao's elder brother Jiang Yang would suddenly come back and bring the powerhouses of the Xianlun Sacred Land to slay the Black Wind Bandits!
But this hope was too small!
"Okay, Yaoyao believes in grandma."
Yaoyao nodded as if a chicken pecking at rice, unlike the other children, who were crying out loud.
In this regard, she appeared to be far more sensible and mature compared to her peers.
Grandma Yinhua smiled with relief at the sight. Even if she needed to fight until her old bones broke today, the Black Wind Bandits were not allowed to touch a single hair of Yaoyao!
"Grandma, do you think brother will come back to save us? He went to practice in the Xianlun Sacred Land, so he should be very strong now, right?"
"I believe my brother will show up and kill all the bad guys in the Black Wind Bandits!"
Yaoyao's little face was full of fantasy, remembering the scene when she met a poisonous snake before and her brother drove it away.
Now that her life was in danger, her brother should come to save her again, right?
A wry smile appeared on Grandma Yinhua's face.
What would she say at this time? How could she tell Yaoyao that even if her brother was talented, he would probably be in the Conferred Lord Realm at most?
It was impossible for a single person to save them today.
Unless a miracle happened.
'If it's really the end of the line, then even if I have to burn my life essence, I will sacrifice that secret treasure and move Yaoyao to a safe place. I won't let the Black Wind Bandits find her!'
She looked at Yaoyao's innocent face and thought in her heart.
"Beishan Village, who dares to provoke us, the Black Wind Bandits! We will let you watch today what happens when you offend those stronger than you!"
At this time, a rumbling voice suddenly came from the horizon, and a large number of fierce bandits, like a wave of crows, crazily rushed over!
The Bandit Leader, dressed in black, sat on the body of a black flood dragon with a terrifying aura.
The voice belonged to one of the nine Black Wind Bandit Masters. A True God Realm Cultivator.
He stared at Beishan Village below, and spoke coldly, wondering why the leader would send him to bring people to massacre such a tiny village.
So what if Beishan village had Conferred King Realm masters? It still wasn't enough for him to act personally.
But an order from the leader was inviolable. So be it!
'Massacre a village? I'll finish this in a blink!'
"Black Wind Bandits are here! They really came to slaughter our Village! It's over, none of us can escape this fate..."
It was one thing to hear the news, another to see it directly.
The Beishan villagers almost broke down in fear.
"Grandma..."
Yaoyao bit her lip in fright, her small body was trembling behind Granny Yinhua.
For a kid to not cry in front of such a scene was already extremely brave of her.
"Don't be afraid, Yaoyao, grandma is here."
While comforting Yaoyao, Granny Yinhua stared at the front with a solemn expression.
Above the sky, the mighty black wind bandits were covering the sky and the sun, like a large black cloud, covering it.
In addition to the Master of the True God Realm, the strength of the others was also extremely powerful, and they were the elites of the Black Wind Bandits.
This time, for the sake of slaughtering their village, they actually sent so many people here.
Grandma Yinhua was even more desperate in her heart, but she did not regret it. If the Black Wind Bandits had actually succeeded in capturing Yaoyao last time, she would definitely live in endless regrets and guilt for the rest of her life.
"It's you, the old crone who killed our people! Damned undying, making the leader so angry. After going down to hell today, learn how to grow a pair of working eyes. We, the Black Wind Bandits, aren't people you can easily offend!"
The ninth master of the Black Wind Bandits stood high in the sky.
He sneered and stared at Grandma Yinhua.
Having vented his annoyance, he then personally took action. The leader had already explained that the slaughter of the village must be without fail, otherwise, he would have his head chopped!
Buzz!
True God Realm pressure instantly erupted.
Boom!
The mountains shook as if the sky was falling apart!
It was like a large mountain range fell down from the sky.
All the villagers in Beishan Village were desperate, terrified, and horrified.
Under this breath, they were no different from ants.
"Stop!"
Grandma Yinhua's expression changed greatly, her whole body glowed with bright runes, and she burst out with all her strength, intending to confront the palm.
But the next moment, with a puff, her body was covered in blood, and she flew upside down, and half of her body almost exploded.
The gap between the two was too big, she wasn't his opponent at all.
Everyone in Beishan Village looked at all this in despair and horror, terrified.
Most of them were already slumped to the ground.
"You actually resisted my blow with pure physical strength. It seems that you were also a strong individual back in the day."
The ninth master froze for a moment before sneering.
The strength of Grandma Yinhua surprised him a bit.
But he still didn't care much, he felt that with one more palm, she would be destroyed in both form and spirit!
"There's no need to mention what happened back then. Now I'm just an old woman who wants to protect her granddaughter."
Half of Grandma Yinhua's body was covered in blood, and blood poured out of her mouth, looking extremely pale and miserable.
"Grandma!"
This scene made Yaoyao's face turn pale, she shouted with extreme worry, and her little hands clenched the corner of her clothes.
The strength of the Black Wind Bandit was too strong, even if Grandma Yinhua resisted, there was no second possibility.
She hoped in her heart that her brother would show up to save her and her grandma, but no one came!
She couldn't help but despair.
"Ridiculous. Wouldn't it be better to wait for a painless death? Why do you still have to resist?"
Seeing that the silver-haired old woman dared to make a move, the ninth master sneered again, ready to wipe her out!
With such a massive gap, can resistance be useful?
He also didn't understand why the leader would give this order to slaughter the village.
Maybe the leader was in a bad mood when he met him.
Puff!
Under this powerful aura, the silver-haired old woman spurted out a mouthful of blood again and fell from the air.
Seeing this, Yaoyao hurriedly ran over, intending to help her up, her little face was full of tears.
"Yaoyao, don't bother with me..."
Grandma Yinhua coughed up blood and was seriously injured. At her peak, she was also close to the Heavenly God Realm.
That was why two hits weren't enough to kill her yet.
But that was already amazing enough.
"Don't hurt Grandma!"
Yaoyao opened her hand and stepped in front of the silver-haired old woman, stubbornly looking at the ninth master in the sky, trying to stop him.
"Yaoyao come back...!"
This scene made Grandma Yinhua's expression change drastically, and she was about to pull her back.
"A little girl who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth."
But at this time, the face of the ninth master turned cold, and he had struck again. A terrifying palm fell splendidly from the air!
To crush this ignorant little girl to death.
Unexpectedly, even a 4 or 5 years old girl would dare to stop him.
This made him feel that his prestige was being provoked, and his expression was even colder.
"Yaoyao!"
The villagers in Beishan Village also shouted.
Some people were even more angry and unwilling, they dare not watch this scene, and turn their heads away.
He felt that under this palm, Yaoyao would definitely die.
Buzz!
But the next moment, the picture everyone was thinking of did not appear.
Accompanied by a slightly helpless sigh.
Heaven and earth went silent with an inexplicable and mysterious aura flowing in the void.
Time and space, Samsara... all kinds of laws seem to be stagnant.
"This deity still wanted to continue watching the show, but to think that you would dare act upon such a cute and helpless little girl... truly monstrous."
A voice that sounded like a man reverberated between heaven and earth, making it impossible to tell the age.
It seemed very young.
But in his words, there was a feeling of antiquity, as if the man had seen through the vicissitudes of life, and had bathed in the waters of flowing eternity.
The void unfolded like a picture scroll.
A figure of a man with a blurry face and immortal aura stepped out from it.
In the deep eyes, it seems to reflect many terrifying scenes such as the collapse of the universe and the destruction of all of creation.
Just looking at them was enough to make people's minds explode.
It was Gu Changge, who had come to Beishan Village long ago but had been watching the play in secret, waiting for the right time to show up.
At this moment, the ninth master was dumbfounded, trembling.
He was cold to the bones as if someone poured ice water on his skull.
This person suddenly appeared was outside his perception and vision.
But he was definitely unfathomably powerful, otherwise, there would be absolutely no such means of interfering with the laws of heaven and earth.
Faintly, he thought of the recent news from the Xuan Domain.
'Could it be... the mysterious and unpredictable Supreme Immortal?'
"Brother, are you an Immortal...?"
Yaoyao was a little stunned when she saw the man in white who suddenly appeared in front of her.
In response, those big pure and clean eyes were full of confusion and curiosity as she asked timidly.
"Brother Immortal?"
The figure walking out of heaven and earth seemed to be stunned when he heard the words, and then let out a chuckle.
"This is something new...."
"Little girl, are you willing to worship this deity as your teacher?"
Then, his deep eyes suddenly fell.
The voice was filled with a terrifying aura that made many laws and orders tremble.
Everyone watched this scene in shock and amazement.
Especially the bandits of the Black Wind Bandit, they were all cold.
The soul seemed to be frozen, and it was difficult to move even if they wanted to!
The mighty momentum turned deadly, causing the villagers in Beishan Village to be horrified and unable to believe their eyes.
At this time, Yaoyao didn't seem to realise what happened.
On the other hand, Grandma Yinhua behind her had a drastic change in her complexion. First, she was shocked as she couldn't believe it, and now she was ecstatic.
Supporting the terrifying injury, she said to Yaoyao with a trembling voice, "Yaoyao, agree to the immortal, this is your best chance! Don't miss it!"
Although Beishan Village was located in a desolate place, she also heard that during this period of time, an extremely mysterious Supreme Immortal had appeared in the Xuan Domain.
In the past, the Taixu Sect, the greatest power in the Xuan Domain, with the help of this Immortal's words, instantly unified the domain and achieved what more than a hundred thousand years' worth of war failed to accomplish.
The man in white in front of him, his methods and temperament, his identity... It was simply not necessary to say more.
At this moment, Grandma Yinhua's heart jumped to her throat, and she was extremely anxious for Yaoyao.
"It's really a rare Immortal Talent no one has found for so many years. I didn't expect to come across it while passing through this domain today."
"If I was any slower, I'm afraid it'd have been destroyed, truly a sin."
At this moment, the man in white in front of him spoke again, with a slight smile in his voice, and said to Yaoyao.
Yaoyao opened her eyes and felt warmth and tranquillity in the man in front of her.
The feeling of his Qi and aura.
As if she would not be afraid even if the sky were to fall.
Just when she was about to be beaten to death by the bad guys of the Black Wind Bandit, it was this immortal brother who suddenly appeared, rescued her, and said that she wanted to accept her as a disciple. Also said she had an Immortal Talent.
On the contrary, the brother she had been looking forward to did not come.
Without this immortal, she, her grandma, and all the villagers would have died here today.
"Thank you Supreme Immortal for your help. This old woman is very grateful!"
At this time, with ecstasy and deep gratitude, Grandma Yinhua knelt down and thanked Gu Changge.
She was completely horrified by his casual remark.
Just passing by this domain?
How many domains were there in the entire Tianchen Realm?
Doesn't that mean that the immortal in front of her can cross hundreds of millions of distances at will, shrinking them into an inch easily?
This technique was simply unheard of.
Gu Changge nodded slightly and made her stand up, but he obviously didn't have any intention of talking with her.
Grandma Yinhua was not surprised, she felt normal.
It was a great honour to even see a Supreme Immortal, let alone have a conversation.
In her opinion, Yaoyao's identity should not be simple.
When she was adopted, no beasts approached within a thousand miles.
It's just that Grandma Yinhua could never figure out the reason.
The Immortal from the Upper Realm in front of her was very knowledgeable and must know a lot of things.
It should be no problem to understand Yaoyao's extraordinary mystery.
"Is Brother Immoral really going to accept Yaoyao as a disciple?"
"They all said that I can't cultivate and am just an ordinary person. The cultivator who took my brother away last time also said that if I went with him, I'd just be dragging him into the dirt..."
Yaoyao spoke in a low voice, she seemed to be only four or five years old, but it was obvious that she knew more than many people.
It's not that she doesn't want to have a teacher.
But she felt unqualified as a lowly girl from a rural village, not to mention the strange disease she had which prevented her from cultivating.
She was not worthy of worshipping the immortal in front of her as her teacher.
Moreover, before, she actually felt that it was fine not to cultivate.
She can accompany her grandma and wait for her brother to return after completing his practice and protect them.
But today, after witnessing the cruelty of this world with her own eyes, she suddenly felt that cultivation became very important.
Only when you are strong can you protect your loved ones around you!
"It's just that they are blind and short-sighted. How can a True Immortal talent be seen by ordinary people?"
Gu Changge shook his head slightly, speaking with a bit of disdain.
The expression in his eyes seemed to be more and more appreciative the more he looked.
Of course, when he was hiding in the void before, he had already observed Yaoyao all over.
She was indeed the Favoured Daughter of Heaven, and the number of her Fortune Value was extremely astonishing, reaching tens of thousands.
This made him firm up his previous guess; she had to do something with the mysterious Peach Tree and not the template of the Ruthless Empress that he was familiar with in his previous world.
There was a hint of similarity, but it was not exactly the same.
However, the plan remained the same, how it should be done.
Without any means, as the Favoured Daughter of Heaven, she wouldn't agree easily.
And Gu Changge would also not go to great lengths to arrange such a drama of a hero saving beauty.
"Yaoyao is willing to worship the immortal as her teacher!"
Hearing what Gu Changge said, Yaoyao's eyes were full of determination, crisp and authentic.
She looked very well-behaved, though her face was stained with tears.
"Cute and obedient."
"These troubles, this deity... oh no, I'll help you solve it as a teacher. The sin of almost destroying an Immortal Talent..."
"Is worth a thousand deaths."
Gu Changge smiled slightly, and said with a flash of deep meaning on his face, and then waved his sleeve directly.
Boom!
It was like the whole world was turning!
The terrifying and vast power, like a sea, covered heaven and earth.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
The group of Black Wind Bandits who were still aggressive and obscured the sky just now disappeared from the sky in an instant, as if they were instantly wiped away by an invisible terrifying big hand!
As if their appearance before was an illusion!
This scene made all the villagers in Beishan Village widen their eyes and stunned.
In their opinion, this method was no different from that of the True Immortals in the rumours.
"It's so powerful that it seems to transcend the shackles of heaven and earth..."
Grandma Yinhua shuddered and was shocked by this scene, taking a long time to come back to her senses.
And then there was ecstasy. This is because this immortal, actually accepted Yao Yao as a disciple!
