The sound of the system's prompt in Gu Changge's mind brought him some satisfaction.
This random event was indeed simple, yielding a full seven hundred points of Destiny Value. With the one hundred points spent on the Beginner's Guide to Pill Dao, that now left him with a total of three thousand points—quite a large sum.
As for how the rating worked, it was likely up to the system to determine, and Gu Changge couldn't be bothered to think much about it.
He had merely spoken his true thoughts.
His respectful and gentle attitude toward Su Qingge and the others was naturally because he had ulterior motives.
As for the Jia Lou Saint Son, Jin Yang—what was that supposed to be? Did he really think he could compare to the Son of Destiny? Could he offend him and just continue to bounce around freely?
A little ant that didn't even have the qualification to be harvested as fodder.
Gu Changge could crush him with a flick of his finger, but for now, he was just looking for the right reason.
As for the whereabouts of Ye Chen?
He didn't care at all. From start to finish, his only goal was simply to complete the system's random event.
Inside the Star-picking Pavilion, a dead silence fell. Watching the scene, everyone's faces turned pale, and some of the young prodigies even trembled. No one dared to speak.
"Please forgive us, my lord..."
"The Saint Son is foolish, and has offended you..."
Jia Lou Saint Son and his guardian looked utterly pale, kneeling on the ground in fear.
However, Gu Changge didn't even lift his eyelids, casually saying, "Elder Ming…"
"Young master, old servant is here!"
A violent fluctuation of void energy spread, and a black-clad elder appeared, bowing respectfully. It was Elder Ming.
Although he had returned to his family, he had actually stayed by Gu Changge's side, never daring to leave his side.
At this moment, the appearance of Elder Ming shocked everyone even more. It was the first time they had seen this legendary figure, the ancestor of the Lin family, who had ascended through the Void some thirty thousand years ago.
Especially with his respectful attitude—it seemed the rumors were true!
"I don't want to hear tomorrow that the Jia Lou Holy Land still exists..." Gu Changge said in a nonchalant tone.
"Yes, old servant will take care of it right away." Elder Ming responded respectfully, then with a blur in the void, he vanished.
Hiss!
At that moment, everyone felt as if their scalp was about to explode, and a chilling fear crept up their backs.
"You..."
Jia Lou Saint Son spat out another mouthful of blood, his eyes wide in disbelief. He never imagined that offending the young master would bring such a terrifying disaster upon his sect.
In that moment, he felt a mixture of anger, regret, and frustration.
This young lord of the upper realm really had a ruthless heart!
"It's over, it's over..." His guardian looked like a dead man, his face ashen, eyes full of despair.
Yuanchu Saint Son, Wan Hua Fairy, and the others also turned pale. As fellow prominent figures from Zhongzhou, they couldn't help but wonder—if they were in his shoes, they would probably meet the same fate.
Don't be fooled by the young lord's previously gentle and peaceful demeanor.
In reality, in front of him, they were all like ants, no different from one another.
This casual statement had instantly sealed the fate of the Jia Lou Holy Land.
They felt as though they could already see boundless bloodshed.
Even Su Qingge and Lin Qiuhan felt a chill run down their spines. This was the first time they had seen Gu Changge like this.
Cold, lofty, as though he were a god, ruling and overseeing everything.
And this… was his true nature!
Upon thinking of this, Su Qingge couldn't help but feel a sense of relief. Gu Changge had truly been good to her.
She could even say he had been overly indulgent, to the point of pampering her.
The news of Jia Lou Saint Son publicly defying the young lord of the upper realm in the Star-picking Pavilion spread almost instantly from Chongyue Ancient City to every corner of Zhongzhou, creating a huge uproar and stirring a massive wave.
Countless cultivators were shocked and horrified, their backs chilled.
The sequence of events was quickly spread by several young prodigies, triggering heated discussions across the land.
Jia Lou Saint Son had not only made a brotherly pact with an enemy of the upper realm's young lord, but he also concealed and defended the enemy's whereabouts, refusing to speak. This angered the young lord, eventually bringing disaster upon his sect.
Many cultivators sighed, thinking that Jia Lou Saint Son was too foolish—he had brought death upon himself, dragging his entire sect to perish with him.
Of course, there were also some who secretly rejoiced, calling it well-deserved. After all, who told him to court death?
Jia Lou Holy Land had been established on Zhongzhou Mainland for over a hundred thousand years, with ancestors who had ascended to the upper realm at the Void God Realm. They possessed numerous powerful techniques and treasures, with an incredibly deep foundation.
But on that day, it was as if a colossal hand had descended from the heavens, covering the entire land. The ancestral artifact revived, and all resistance was in vain, like facing the overwhelming might of the heavens!
The pavilion and mountains within a five-thousand-mile radius were reduced to ruins.
The pressure from the Void God Realm covered the sky, and countless cultivators trembled in terror.
"Those who do evil will perish…"
"There will always be someone to collect you…"
In the end, only the words of the Jia Lou Holy Lord echoed through the heavens and earth.
Jia Lou Holy Land was thus erased from Zhongzhou Mainland.
This incident shocked not only Zhongzhou but also other regions. If the once-great Jia Lou Holy Land, which had produced Void God Realm ancestors, could be so easily destroyed, then what about the rest of them?
Countless cultivators were filled with fear, shivering from head to toe, their dread of the young lord from the upper realm reaching its peak.
After all, for cultivators from the upper realm, no matter what existence resided in the lower realm, it was ultimately like ants—they wouldn't even bother to regard them.
The cultivator from East Wilderness, named Ye Chen, also gained considerable fame again in Zhongzhou, with many cultivators seeing him as a plague god.
Some cultivators and factions, eager to please Gu Changge, even began searching for Ye Chen's whereabouts, intending to capture him alive and deliver him to Gu Changge.
……
In a remote town in the central region of Zhongzhou, a man with a resolute face and ordinary appearance was struck dumb by the news, as if he had been struck by a lightning bolt.
"Brother Jin Yang…"
"I will kill Gu Changge to avenge you, to avenge the Jia Lou Holy Land!"
His eyes were red, his teeth clenched tightly, and his body trembled with sorrow and rage.
He had initially planned to join the Jia Lou Holy Land because of his relationship with Jia Lou Saint Son, as the Holy Lord had shown him favor.
But now, the entire Jia Lou Holy Land had been obliterated and erased from the world. This made him seethe with fury, his killing intent turning ice-cold—he was filled with an overwhelming desire for vengeance.
"Master, please tell me how I can become stronger quickly. I want to kill Gu Changge!"
"I want to kill him!"
Ye Chen's teeth ground together, his eyes bloodshot. Jin Yang had been one of his true friends, a man of righteousness who had treated him well. But in the end, because of his connection with him, the Jia Lou Holy Land had been destroyed.
And all of this was caused by Gu Changge. Ye Chen wished he could slice him into a thousand pieces and tear his body apart. That would barely relieve his rage.
"小尘……"
In the ring space, Yan Ji shook her head, feeling helpless. This situation had developed into the very thing she had hoped to avoid.
She had given up on trying to persuade Ye Chen to let go of his hatred, for he had already been consumed by rage.
At this point, there was no turning back. Either Ye Chen would die, or Gu Changge would.
Yan Ji found herself in a difficult position. After all, she had a good impression of Gu Changge, but she couldn't abandon Ye Chen either…
With a sigh, Yan Ji spoke to Ye Chen, "According to the fragment you found, the Tianyuan Ancient Secret Realm is about to open. It contains not only a sealed ancient demon weapon, but also the legacy of the one who originally sealed it…"
"I will obtain the legacy and kill Gu Changge!"
Ye Chen's sorrow disappeared from his face, and he quickly regained his composure. Hearing this, he clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth.
