Chapter 248: It's Truly A Miracle; You Are A Good Master!
They believed Gu Changge threatened Gu Xian'er, which was why she brought him here.
However, they were baffled as to how Gu Changge had the audacity to do such a thing. Does he not put them in his eyes?
Is it because of his identity as the Young Master of the Gu family?
"What do you mean, Gu Changge? Do you think we're easy to oppress?"
"How dare you be so arrogant as to come here on your own initiative?! Don't be afraid, Xian'er; with the Masters here, if Gu Changge dares to threaten you, we will not let him leave alive."
"Even if it means offending the Ancient Immortal Gu Family behind him, we will not hesitate!"
Several old monsters spoke at the same time, and their words were chilling, staring at Gu Changge with murderous intent.
They would suppress and take down Gu Changge at the drop of a hat.
Under their pressure, ordinary people would have been frightened and collapsed to the ground; trembling endlessly, unable to stand back up.
But Gu Changge did not.
He was calm and at ease, as if he was not feeling the slightest pressure. Him not even opening his mouth to retort made him appear otherworldly.
This scene made the old monsters' hearts sink.
Gu Changge did not appear to be simple, and he most likely made all preparations before coming here, so he was not afraid of them.
"Masters, please wait. It's all a misunderstanding, listen to me, okay?"
Seeing this scene, even though Gu Xian'er had expected, she was still a little dumbfounded, but of course her heart still felt very warm.
For her sake, her Masters would not hesitate to offend the Ancient Immortal Gu Family.
She also understands that, even if her Masters are mysterious and powerful, they cannot be the opponents of the family behind her.
Hearing Gu Xian'er's words, the old monsters' brows tightened, wondering if there was something wrong with her brain, or if she had gone out and turned evil.
What possible misunderstanding can there be?
There was a blood feud between her and Gu Changge.
In the past, Gu Changge had taken advantage of her young age and dug out her Dao Bones, nearly killing her. If it wasn't for her fate, she would have been a pile of ashes by now.
Furthermore, the clans members from her lineage also were suppressed and exiled, and so on...
How can this hatred be a misunderstanding that can be resolved so easily?
For a while, they all felt Gu Xian'er had been coerced and deceived.
Perhaps the clansmen behind her were in Gu Changge's hands, who used the opportunity to threaten her.
"Junior, I advise you to be more wise and use less tricks. In front of us, any scheme or trick will not work."
The Village Chief of the Peach Village looked at Gu Changge with a cold expression, looking for any flaws on his face.
Gu Changge, on the other hand, remained calm and composed from the beginning to end, and his tone did not fluctuate at all.
"If the seniors believe that there is a problem, they are free to take action; why waste time on such words?
"How daring, are you threatening us?"
Gu Xian'er's third Master spoke in a cold voice. He was deaf, but that didn't mean he couldn't hear Gu Changge's words.
[Kshn: Yep, totally true. You can't hear someone just cause you're deaf? You are nothing but WEAK!]
His cultivation had reached an extremely profound level, and it was the same whether these organs were present or not.
"Gu Changge, can't you speak less? Have you forgotten why you came here in the first place?"
Gu Xian'er also had a headache because of Gu Changge's indifferent attitude towards everyone.
Therefore, she could only open her mouth so that Gu Changge would take Yaoyao into consideration.
She also used this opportunity to send a sound transmission to her Masters, telling them about what had happened between her and Gu Changge recently, which caused their expressions to change rapidly and turn complicated.
"There are still such unspoken secrets involved?"
"This is too unbelievable."
After hearing this, the Village Chief frowned.
There seemed to be nothing wrong with what Gu Xian'er told them, especially since, only after Gu Xian'er's deciphering, did she discover this secret by piecing together various clues.
Otherwise, there was no telling how difficult it would be for them to find it themselves.
With all of these details, the old monsters could only remain silent.
After all, based on Gu Xian'er's words, the credibility of the matter increased hundreds of times.
To know that Gu Changge never said anything to her from the beginning to end, and she investigated and discovered everything herself.
'Born with demonic nature? That was the issue?'
'It is somewhat possible, with his background, it's not likely he'd do such a thing.'
'There were such secrets... Doesn't that mean we blamed him wrongly?'
Thinking about this, the faces of the old monsters grew a little embarrassed.
If the hatred could be resolved in this manner it wouldn't be too bad; they also do not want Gu Xian'er to harbour a deep grudge forever.
Looking at her now, she appears to be much happier and more relaxed than she was previously.
The person she used to hate so much was now standing right in front of her, and not only does she not hate him anymore, she even wants to defend him.
It was truly a miracle!
"What are you looking at?"
However, at that moment, everyone suddenly heard a soft and pleasant voice, similar to the sound of nature, with an ethereal feeling.
"Senior Taoyao!"
All of the villagers in Peach Village were excited and bowed their heads towards the Peach Tree at the village's entrance.
In the beginning, when the Village Chief and others were not there, it was the Peach Tree at the entrance of the village that had been protecting their safety for generations.
For this Peach Tree, they had deep reverence.
It's just that the Peach Tree had rarely spoken over the years, and everyone assumed it had fallen into a deep sleep, so they didn't expect it to suddenly speak today.
"Senior Taoyao, you actually took the initiative to speak today..."
"I am still speaking to this guy."
The Village Chief and other old monsters were also taken aback.
Although their origins were vast and ancient, they were still insignificant in comparison to the mysterious Peach Tree in front of them, so they are very respectful.
Except for very rare occasions, the Peach Tree would not speak.
It's very odd that it took the initiative to speak with Gu Changge today.
"As I look at the senior, I find that your aura resembles that of Yaoyao."
Gu Changge said slowly, and withdrew his gaze to look at the Peach Tree.
The fact that it took the initiative to speak to him, Gu Changge was not surprised about.
The particulars about Yaoyao, it had presumably already noticed.
Saying that, Yaoyao, who was standing behind Gu Changge, was also staring at the Peach Tree with curiosity.
The initial unease and worry diminished, leaving only a natural familiarity.
The Peach Tree in front of her seemed inextricably linked to her, like a kin.
"That little girl is like my kin, I'm sure there's a deep connection between us."
"I can sense what she's thinking, and she can probably sense my presence as well."
A pleasant voice came again from the Peach Tree, still calm and gentle, without the slightest malice.
"Master, I seem to be able to perceive her existence... she's just like my sister..."
At this time, Yaoyao also opened her mouth, her little face was filled with doubt and confusion, but also intimacy, she couldn't help but want to get closer to the Peach Tree.
Gu Changge was silent, as if he was lost in thought.
"Could it be that there is really some kind of connection between Sister Taoyao and Yaoyao? Is this too much of a coincidence?"
At this time, hearing these words, Gu Xian'er was very surprised.
Initially, she said that bringing Yaoyao to the Peach Village would just be to try her luck, but her main purpose was to ask her Masters if there was anything they could do about Gu Changge's situation.
But she never expected this to happen.
"Come over to my side."
Within the Peach Tree, the voice sounded again.
Yaoyao hesitated, feeling that the other party would not harm her, but she still asked for Gu Changge's opinion.
Gu Changge nodded, his voice calm and genuine, "Yaoyao's existence is more than just an apprentice for this junior. I hope the senior will hold no ill will towards her..."
"Otherwise, senior will understand the meaning of regret."
Of course, he knew that the Peach Tree would definitely not harm Yaoyao, but he still had to lay down the harsh words first, and after, he could gain goodwill.
"Interesting. You are actually threatening me?"
The Peach Tree's words seemed to be stunned for a moment, then there was a chuckle like the sound of nature, "I can feel what Yaoyao thinks, you are a good master."
Buzz!
Suddenly, the Peach Tree swayed gently, its branches and leaves mesmerising.
Immediately after, a vast white fog appeared in all directions, the Laws of Heaven and Earth collapsed, and the sound of the Dao emerged.
Even the old monsters in the Peach Village couldn't see what was happening there.
Only Gu Changge noticed that after Yaoyao walked over, a figure of unparalleled beauty appeared faintly in the Peach Tree, and with a wave of her jade hand, the Heavenly Immortal Light descended and merged into Yaoyao's body.
The other side seemed to intentionally let him notice.
Moreover, Gu Changge felt a pair of eyes, as gentle and serene as autumn water, like they could see through the universe.
It was coming from within, as if to see through him.
Gu Changge's expression was calm and indifferent, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
Then, with a humming sound, wisps of innate Demonic Nature emerged in his heart.
But there was nothing unusual about his expression.
