Chapter 228: Yue Mingkong’s Plan; Pay Attention to Your Master.
Although Gu Changge always felt that there was not much difference between the Reincarnation of Human Ancestor and the protagonists of the so-called body seizing troupes, there was definitely a big difference when all is said and done.
An old man like Human Ancestor, who had been reincarnated so many times, how could there be no means to conceal it, he might be able to create a situation where two could live symbiotically.
Even if some powerhouse tried to investigate it, they won’t be able to find the traces of the body seizing, at most they might explain that the memory of their previous life has awakened.
Gu Changge telling Yaoyao that Jiang Yang had been taken away in such a manner was no different from a framed accusation.
Because he didn’t have any solid evidence right now that can directly prove that Jiang Yang was not the Jiang Yang he used to be.
But that doesn’t matter either.
After all, Yaoyao trusted him very much.
What he wanted was for Yaoyao to have doubts about Jiang Yang and become wary of him.
If Jiang Yang was stupid enough to aim at Yaoyao directly, then it would be exactly what Gu Changge wanted.
If two of them collide in the Tianchen realm, he would be able to take advantage of it and finish up the Human Ancestor.
‘Wouldn’t that be wonderful?’
‘According to Human Ancestor’s current methods, it is unlikely that he will keep Jiang Yang’s original consciousness as he wouldn’t want to be constrained by it. The so-called righteousness was just an image maintained on the surface.’
‘After all, which decent individual will ask for different Saintesses from generation to generation again and again…’
‘Now that Yaoyao’s Big Brother has disappeared, her hating the Human Ancestor is a must.’
‘And as her master, it’s not wrong for me to help her.’
Many thoughts flashed in Gu Changge’s mind.
There was still a warm expression on his face, showing no abnormality.
As for the guilt of taking advantage of Yaoyao? He didn’t have any.
Rather than being used by Human Ancestor, why not let her master help her to avenge her brother’s murderer?
“Yaoyao, take good care of this jade pendant. It contains a wisp of your master’s Dao Dharma Body. When you are in danger, crush it and your teacher will be able to sense you.”
Gu Changge pondered for a while, then continued to speak.
At the same time, a crystal clear jade pendant appeared in the palm of the hand, and many Ancient and mysterious runes flickered on it.
There was an astonishing aura on it, and a wisp of it seemed to make heaven and earth crumble.
“Thank you, Master.” Yaoyao accepted it obediently.
Gu Changge smiled slightly.
He knew that Yaoyao was unlikely to be in danger.
At a critical moment, obviously, the Dao Fruit’s power would explode, then who could hurt her?
But Yaoyao herself didn’t know this.
In her opinion, the reason why Gu Changge gave her this jade pendant was because he was worried that Jiang Yang would get hurt while he was away.
This moved her heart.
Of course, Gu Changge had another purpose. What this jade pendant contains was not the so-called wisp of Dao Dharma Body, but his Myriad Demon Body.
Myriad Demon Body was similar to Divine Sense, equivalent to a strand of his Divine Soul. With its help, he can track Yaoyao’s every movement.
He knew that Jiang Yang would definitely come to look for Yaoyao next, and under the guise of taking her to play, he would try to gain Yaoyao’s trust.
At that time, if her master intervened in it, Jiang Yang would inevitably be suspicious.
Although Jiang Yang intends to deal with him.
But he also understands that now was not the time.
Gu Changge didn’t intend to beat the bush and startle the snake, so he planned to control all Jiang Yang’s movements through Yaoyao. Even if Jiang Yang had doubts at that time, it would be impossible to guess Gu Changge’s purpose.
“Dao Dharma Body…”
Grandma Yinhua glanced at it enviously, she could feel the horror and extraordinary nature of this jade pendant.
With this jade pendant’s protection, it was estimated that even Sacred Realm cultivators would not be able to hurt Yaoyao.
‘Yaoyao’s master is really powerful!’
‘Is there anything else he can’t bring out?’
But soon, thinking of Jiang Yang’s changes, her face showed sadness, helplessness, anguish and other emotions.
After all, even Immortal said that even he was not sure, and needed to make sure, so how was Jiang Yang now? Has his body really been taken away?
Just when Yaoyao and Grandma Yinhua were suspicious of Jiang Yang.
Gu Changge also heard the sound of the system prompt.
Jiang Yang lost a lot of Fortune Value.
He could see with his own eyes some illusory fortune between heaven and earth fading away quickly.
According to this trend, when Jiang Yang’s Fortune Value in the Tianchen realm has declined to a certain extent, he can start to consider plundering his fortune, which has a relatively high chance of success.
‘What Heavenly Dao Treasure Chests will be dropped when the Kill-Drop Rule of the Favoured Son of Heaven is triggered?’
‘Could it be something like a Reincarnation Seal or the Dao Fruit?’
At this time, Gu Changge was thinking about the final reward he’d get after he is done with the Human Ancestor.
From Jiang Chuchu’s mouth, he has already learned the biggest trump card of Human Ancestor’s Reincarnation, and now even if Jiang Yang explodes, with his body, he will only be able to break through to the God Realm1 From False God to God King Realm. even if he survives.
When compared to Gu Changge’s strength, it was miles away.
Even if the Human Ancestor was reincarnated and had the means to borrow the power of heaven and earth, Gu Changge didn’t care.
The most he paid attention to was the ancestor of Xianlun Sacred Land, that is, the methods left by Xianlun’s Supreme Realm Ancestor.
‘Supreme Phantom?’
‘Or a Supreme-grade Weapon?’
‘If the Eight Desolate Magic Halberd is revived, it should be able to compete with Xianlun’s Ancestor’s weapon.’ Gu Changge narrowed his eyes.
As for the Supreme Phantom? Even the phantom left by the Ancient Deity of Reincarnation was swallowed by Gu Changge using the Black Dao Bottle.
‘A mere Supreme, can he hold a candle against Ancient Deity?’2 Ancient Deities are said to have almost touched the Immortal Realm; peak Emperor Realm in simpler words.
Only after overcoming the 9 Minor Realms of the Quasi-Supreme Realm, one can have the opportunity to break through to the Supreme Realm.
And only after reaching the Supreme Realm, one will have a chance to breakthrough the Emperor Realm.
The so-called Ancient Deity is a title for those who achieved Dao in the Immortal Period, with some already being close to becoming True Immortal.
In addition to being born with a Devil Heart, Gu Changge also has the Black Dao Bottle.
That Black Dao Bottle was not a phantom condensed from the Immortal Devouring Demonic Arts, but the real deal, floating somewhere in the deepest part of his Sea of Consciousness
It wasn’t until he started to cultivate that it slowly started to emerge.
No one knows this except him.
For more than 20 years, Gu Changge had only used it once.
That Black Dao Bottle was also one of Gu Changge’s most powerful trump cards!
The next few days, Gu Changge took Yaoyao and others to stay in Xianlun Sacred Land temporarily.
The news that he came to the Xianlun Sacred Land was also quickly spread from Xianlun Sacred Land.
After all, many cultivators witnessed Gu Changge entering the Mountain Gate of Xianlun Sacred Land with their own eyes.
For a while, news circulated all over the Tianchen Realm, causing huge waves, many Cultivators to start speculating, being puzzled and shocked.
Many forces and Divine Mountains sent people to visit, but all the doors were closed for them. Later, many people found that the relationship between Xianlun Sacred Land and Gu Changge did not seem to be very harmonious.
Gu Changge temporarily lived in Xianlun Sacred Land.
They only dared to treat him cautiously and did not dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction. Instead, they had to treat him with awe and flattery.
This appearance and attitude shocked many forces, making them sneer in secret.
The Xianlun Sacred Land, which had always been strong and domineering, were reduced to flattering dogs.

[On the other side]
Yue Mingkong also got news about Xianlun Sacred Land.
Her methods were very secretive, and she also secretly controlled many powerful local forces. There were several Ancient Races in Tian Domain, which were under her control.
There was nothing in Tian Domain that could be hidden from her eyes and ears.
Xianlun Sacred Land was no exception.
At this moment, her expression was cold and profound, frowning and looking at the group of people kneeling below, there was a terrifying pressure circulating.
“Jiang Yang…”
Yue Mingkong muttered, and there was an astonishing murderous aura and chill in her eyes.
“After searching for so long, you finally showed up.”
This name was something she had just learned from one of her subordinates.
A disciple of the Xianlun Sacred Land, the bearer of the Holy Physique who recently began to rise in fame.
‘No wonder there was no news before. It turned out that the physique was a cursed one, so there was no movements for many years.’
‘It is truly a demanding one.’
Yue Mingkong’s expression became more and more indifferent, and the killing intent was astonishing.
Her original plan was to go to Heavenly Pond first, wait for the birth of the Pure Worldly Lotus and pick it up in advance, so that the Human Ancestor’s intention to return to Upper Realm would become a bubble.3 A difficult situation, and very likely to fail.[/mfn]
But now, she changed her mind.
Now that Human Ancestor’s Reincarnation had appeared, what she must do now was to find a way to deal with him.
Regardless of the odds of success, she must try it first.
‘I just don’t know if Human Ancestor’s Reincarnation has awakened the memory of his previous life or not.’
‘It would be much easier if he didn’t.’
‘If he has awakened it, it will be more troublesome, but the Human Ancestor’s Reincarnation doesn’t know that I am going to kill him.’
‘If he treats me as Human Ancestral Hall’s descendant that came to find him in the lower realm…’
Under the veil of Yue Mingkong, there was a cold smile on her beautiful fairy-like face.
Her plan was not difficult.
To kill the Human Ancestor’s Reincarnation, she must plan in advance.
Because Jiang Yang had many methods, and he was far more difficult to deal with than Ye Ling, the Heir of the Ancient Deity of Reincarnation.
If there was even a slight error, and he managed to escape even after being seriously injured it’d be akin to failure.
Yue Mingkong didn’t want to take a lot of risks, so she had to make detailed plans and arrangements first.
‘If I’m correct, the Ancestor of this Xianlun Sacred Land has some relation with the Human Ancestor, and is the innate spirit that he had enlightened in one of his life.’
‘This must be the backhand Human Ancestor set up. I have to find a way to lure him out, preferably alone…’
Many thoughts flashed in Yue Mingkong’s mind.
Soon she had a plan.
First of all, she must first decide on a place, where all the formation and manpower would be arranged in advance, and then lure the Reincarnation of Human Ancestor, making him a turtle in a jar.4 Chinese idiom(瓮中捉鱉) meaning ‘To set oneself an easy target’[/mfn]
She did not believe that the Reincarnation of the Human Ancestor would be able to escape alone.
After that, Yue Mingkong’s eyes flashed as she started writing with a pen in her jade hand, intending to find someone to send this letter to Jiang Yang in the Xianlun Sacred Land.
At this moment, she was worried that the Supreme Immortal would ruin her plans.
Judging from the news, the Human Ancestor’s Reincarnation’s younger sister was the Immortal’s disciple, who brought him to the Xianlun Sacred Land.
‘Is it all a coincidence? Or is that Immortal actually here to find the Reincarnation of the Human Ancestor?’
Yue Mingkong frowned. For her, the only advantage now was that the other party was not aware of her existence at the moment.
If the Immortal gets in the way of her plan, she doesn’t mind dealing with him in the process.
This time to deal with a Favoured Son of Heaven, she made a lot of preparation and brought many things to the Lower Realm, including terrifying forbidden Quasi-Supreme-grade weapons.

[At the same time, in the Ancient City 3,000 miles away from Xianlun Sacred Land.]
There were many cultivators and creatures on the bustling street.
On both sides were pavilions and shops, palaces and courtyards, rows upon rows, extremely magnificent.
“This is the first time for you to came to Xianlun Sacred Land. As a big brother, I have to take you for a walk today.”
With an apologetic smile on Jiang Yang’s face, he was leading Yaoyao and Grandma Yinhua for a stroll, casually chatting.
Behind them followed the Supreme Elder Zhao Yi of Xianlun Sacred Land, who looked like a maid in appearance, but was actually Jiang Yang’s protector.
What happened in the hall that day was a bit humiliating for Jiang Yang and made his image in Zhao Yi’s mind plummet.
But soon under Jiang Yang’s guidance and methods, Zhao Yi’s stagnant cultivation for many years showed signs of breakthrough, which shocked her, and her views and attitudes towards Jiang Yang changed again.
Zhao Yi also felt that what happened in the hall that day was an accident.
Jiang Yang’s methods became more and more mysterious, making them even more incomprehensible.
At this moment, with a smile on his face, Jiang Yang spoke to Yaoyao and Grandma Yinhua, intending to gain Yaoyao’s trust again.
Especially on the way, he also mentioned many instances of their childhood.
The expressions and tone of voice gradually became the same as the Big Brother Yaoyao was familiar with before.
But that night, what Gu Changge told the two of them was like a thorn in her heart.
Both Yaoyao and Grandma Yinhua were not very willing to get close to Jiang Yang.
However, they did not want to be cold either.
But there was always a barrier and alienation, and even wariness.
This made Jiang Yang frown and puzzled, but his expression still didn’t show any abnormality.
He was still talking to the two of them very enthusiastically, as if he wanted to make up for his previous mistakes.
This time, Gu Changge did not come out with the two of them. Although he was Yaoyao’s master, being always around her was annoying and somewhat out of place.
Jiang Yang didn’t think there was anything wrong.
But if Gu Changge still followed her at this time, he would have felt that Gu Changge had ulterior motives and made no effort to hide it.
Moreover, he sensed a jade pendant on Yaoyao’s body.
There was Gu Changge’s aura on it.
Jiang Yang felt that it was left by Gu Changge in order to determine Yaoyao’s location.
But he didn’t care, because it was impossible for him to do anything to Yaoyao, Gu Changge was completely overthinking it.
“Brother, Yaoyao is a little tired. I want to go back.”
At this moment, Yaoyao’s face also showed a trace of tiredness as she glanced at Jiang Yang and said softly.
Today Jiang Yang took her and her Grandma Yinhua from the Xianlun Sacred Land, and went to the nearby Ancient City for a walk. He said that he hadn’t seen them for a long time and wanted to chat with them.
With the jade pendant given by the master, Yaoyao was not worried and agreed.
Moreover, she still remembered what Gu Changge said.
She intended to see what was wrong with Jiang Yang, whether there was really a big change in his temperament, or whether his body has been taken away.
So Yaoyao quietly observed all the way, but found that Jiang Yang’s expression, tone, or the way he looked at her was the same as before.
The same brother that she was familiar with.
He remembered her favourite food, and also remembered that the two of them met a fierce beast at the entrance of the village when they were young.
But the fierce beast was trembling with fear for some unknown reason.
If it was before, then she would’ve felt that this was definitely her brother, no questions asked.
But the words Gu Changge said last night were still echoing in her ears, making Yaoyao and Grandma Yinhua feel chill on their backs.
It could be said that Jiang Yang’s current appearance was very different from his appearance in the hall that day.
And that was also in just one night.
Regarding the events of that day, Jiang Yang’s explanation was that he was too impulsive and jealous, otherwise, he wouldn’t do that normally.
Yaoyao and Grandma Yinhua remained silent and did not comment on this.
“Since Yaoyao is tired, let’s go back.”
At this time, Jiang Yang was slightly taken aback when he heard the words and then said with a smile.
He didn’t intend to gain Yaoyao’s trust again in a short amount of time.
So he wasn’t in a hurry, and she might just be really tired.
After integrating with the previous consciousness, Jiang Yang himself still loves Yaoyao, a well-behaved younger sister, not to mention her own background was not simple, even if she stayed by his side in the future, she can still help him.
This made Jiang Yang quite satisfied.
As for Gu Changge, after thinking about it, he felt that him coming to this place was just a coincidence. And after finding out that Yaoyao had an extraordinary origin, he accepted her as a disciple, intending to bring her back to the Upper Realm for some purpose.
After thinking about all this, Jiang Yang would definitely not let Gu Changge do as he wants; let him take Yaoyao away from him.
In his eyes, Gu Changge wasn’t able to recognize Mount Tai, and sooner or later he will have to pay the price for humiliating him in the hall that day.
“Brother, is there anything you haven’t told Yaoyao, are you having any troubles?” Yaoyao asked.
Her big eyes suddenly stared at Jiang Yang, full of doubts and confusion.
In fact, she still wanted to know about it personally from Jiang Yang’s mouth.
“Didn’t you say you believed me at that time?”
Jiang Yang smiled and seemed to be not surprised that Yaoyao would ask this question again.
Then, he continued to speak and said the words he had already thought up.
Most of them were not different from what Gu Changge had told Yaoyao, but the difference was that in the end, Jiang Yang did not say anything about the ominous thing.
He just used a sentence to cover up an accident.
And it was precisely this sentence that made Grandma Yinhua’s complexion change slightly.
“It seems that you were really lucky, brother. You are the only one who survived.”
Yaoyao was silent, seeing that Jiang Yang didn’t tell the details, but just covered up the past with an accident, and also understood that there must be a problem in this matter.
“By the way, Yaoyao, you have to pay attention to your master.”
Jiang Yang noticed Yaoyao’s expression, and his eyes twitched slightly, knowing that she might have heard something from Gu Changge, but he didn’t care.
Because his method of reincarnation was flawless, even if a Supreme existence tries, it would be impossible to find anything abnormal.
He didn’t believe Gu Changge could detect anything.
At this point, it was speculation at best.
“Hmm?”
Yaoyao was stunned when she heard the words, she didn’t expect Jiang Yang to suddenly say this and ask her to pay attention to her master.
“Is there anything wrong?”
She was puzzled and did not understand what Jiang Yang meant. Could it be that he wanted to break her relationship with the Master?
At this time, she had subconsciously alienated Jiang Yang, treating him as a stranger.
