Chapter 249: The Way to Save Gu Changge; When that Day comes, I’d rather Die!
Suddenly, the Peach Tree swayed, and the sky was filled with Divine Light. As if a flower bloomed, covering heaven and earth, accompanied by the Dao Chants.
Everyone at the entrance of the Peach Village was stunned.
Even a few old guys with very ancient origins looked confused.
They all heard what Taoyao said just now, so they were shocked.
She took the initiative to speak like this to a young man.
Before that, they had never seen Taoyao have such an attitude.
“What’s so special about this Gu Changge?”
“Why is it that even Senior Taoyao is like this?”
“It seems that our prejudice against Gu Changge is a bit deep. Even Senior Taoyao is like this, which means that there should be no problem with him…”
A few old guys who were still a little doubtful about what Gu Xian’er explained just now, were now believing it.
At this time, they couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief and relax.
They were all convinced as they believed in Taoyao’s vision.
If even she complimented Gu Changge, then it means that there was nothing wrong with Gu Changge.
After thinking about it carefully, they all showed him a lot of goodwill.
After all, judging from Gu Xian’er’s words, Gu Changge did a lot for her secretly.
It’s not surprising that Gu Xian’er would have such an attitude towards Gu Changge.
Thinking of this, their gazes towards Gu Changge softened a lot.
And soon, a vast white mist rose up nearby, and it became more intense, obscuring everything at the entrance of the Peach Village.
The petals were crystal clear, splendid and bright, accompanied by a fragrance, it looked like an Immortal land.
One after another, the divine chain of Laws and Order hung down, as if composed of great Dao of light, mysterious and vast.
However, except for Gu Changge, everyone including Gu Xian’er couldn’t see what was going on.
Even their voices could not be heard.
“What’s wrong with Big Sister Taoyao today?”
“Why would she treat Gu Changge, whom she met for the first time, like this?”
Looking at this scene, Gu Xian’er frowned slightly; a little puzzled.
In her opinion, although Sister Taoyao had some connection with Yaoyao, there was no relationship with Gu Changge, why did she talk to Gu Changge so much?
‘Is it because Gu Changge is Yaoyao’s Master? So Sister Taoyao has a favourable impression of him?’
From what Gu Xian’er knows of Sister Taoyao, if she was not familiar with the person, she would not have such an attitude.
Not to mention that today was the first time she saw Gu Changge.
‘Is there some kind of hidden secret that is not known to anyone?’
‘Or did Sister Taoyao also notice Gu Changge’s Innate Demonic Nature? Is that why she started to investigate?’
Many thoughts flashed through Gu Xian’er’s mind in a short moment and she began to look forward to seeing if Sister Taoyao would be able to find a way to help Gu Changge.
‘If she was able to help him get rid of the Demonic Nature altogether, it would be even better.’
At this time, Gu Changge’s eyes were filled with a strange glint. Looking at the graceful figure of the Peach Tree, all kinds of thoughts flashed in his heart.
He felt a wave of Laws and Order probing him, but at the same time, he felt it was not.
It was a Supreme Power, different from the Laws and Order, which involves the origin of the Dao.
Due to the huge difference in their power levels, it was simply impossible for Gu Changge to resist.
However, he felt that the Great Dao Treasured Bottle in the depths of his Sea of Consciousness seemed to be disturbed by this power, and emitted a slight trembling sound.
This probing power would soon disappear into nothingness and would not have the slightest effect on him…
Or so he had thought.
Gu Changge’s eyes narrowed.
The Devil Heart that had been silent for a long time.
At this moment, was beating again, emitting a trace of Demonic Energy again.
“It turned out to be the Devil Heart.”
“How could…”
“The real thing…”
The Peach Tree’s figure made a very surprising sound and trembled a little.
Everything turned silent.
The gaze that looked at Gu Changge was also gently withdrawn, as if there was no fluctuation of aura.
Gu Changge’s expression was calm, his eyes still looking at the Peach Tree in front of him.
The existence of the Devil Heart was naturally exposed by him on purpose. Now that he has firmly held the position of the Young Master of the Gu family, no one can shake it. Besides, his identity as the heir of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace was also not without any influence.
Therefore, he was not worried that the existence of the Devil Heart would cause him any trouble.
After all, the Devil Heart was just an Innate Talent, not a Forbidden Demonic Art that will lead to a situation where the whole world will be his enemies.
At most, it makes people feel that he was ominous and avoid him like a plague.
“Senior was able to see it?”
At this moment, Gu Changge knowingly asked with a calm expression.
“I saw it.”
Taoyao’s figure was very vague, and through the blanket of Laws of Divine Light, one could faintly see her magnificent and unparalleled appearance.
She replied with a natural look, and explained, “After all, Xian’er is my half-disciple, so I naturally have to pay attention to her affairs.”
“I was afraid that she would be deceived by you since she is young and ignorant.”
“What? Are you unhappy that I discovered your secret?”
Her voice was so soft and sweet, it made people think she would never get angry.
“There’s nothing to be unhappy about. Senior’s Divine ability, this junior admires it very much.”
Hearing this, Gu Changge said very calmly, but in his heart, there was a disdainful sneer.
If it wasn’t for his intention to let the Devil Heart diffuse Demonic Energy.
How can Taoyao in front of him find out about it?
She underestimated his ability so much that she really thought that she would be able to find out if she just checked it out?
Can the Great Dao Treasured Bottle only devour the origins?
However, on the surface, he still acted like he dared not speak out of anger.
“You’re not what you say.”
But when she heard Gu Changge’s words, Taoyao suddenly burst out laughing.
The voice was still soft like the sounds of nature, but it had a more demonic nature.
If the villagers of Tao Village saw this, they would definitely be dumbfounded thinking…
Is this the same Senior Taoyao that they have always known?
Usually, she was as solemn and dignified as a god, revealing the divine majesty that was aloof and awe-inspiring.
How can she be like this, filled with a demonic nature?
But this was indeed Taoyao’s true temperament.
Because of her connection with Yaoyao, she could feel the time she spent with Gu Changge, and knew that although he seems unreliable.
But as a master, he was still quite responsible and competent.
Therefore, Taoyao had a good impression of him, otherwise, she would not talk to him like this.
Besides, she already knew what he wanted to know just now.
What Gu Xian’er said just now was not just aimless.
There was indeed a problem with Gu Changge. Those with a Devil Heart are born with bad luck, and since ancient times, they did not have a good ending.
The existence of the Devil Heart is very rare.
Since the Immortal Period, only a few people with Innate Devil Heart have appeared.
With such an Innate Talent, the weak are buried in the torrent of history, washed away by the ever-surging river, leaving behind not even a ripple.
The strong only left a name to let future generations know of their tragic life.
Those with a Devil Heart, even their name is the greatest taboo. Doesn’t matter if they were able to leave a name behind for themselves, in the end, it was not a happy life.
For Gu Changge to be able to give birth to this kind of talent, apart from the initial shock, she could only say that he was unlucky.
She doesn’t know what to say other than this.
However, since Gu Changge can suppress his Demonic Nature, it shows that his willpower is still very strong.
This is something that Taoyao appreciates.
“Why is the senior laughing?”
Hearing this laughter, Gu Changge’s expression flashed with strangeness, and then he asked calmly.
Is she Taoyao or Peach Demon?
Her Demonic Nature surprised him a bit.
But on the other hand, as he had guessed, Taoyao didn’t have any malice towards Yaoyao.
Now she was even combing her body with various Laws of Dao.
And Yaoyao herself fell into a deep sleep.
Gu Changge estimated that it would take a long time for her to wake up.
Everything he had done before was not useless, Taoyao’s attitude towards him now, had played a big role.
“After so many years, it’s just funny to meet another interesting person besides Xian’er.”
Taoyao’s voice gradually calmed down as she replied.
Gu Changge snorted disapprovingly, then looked at Yaoyao who was in a coma surrounded by countless wisps of Dao, and asked, “What are you planning to do to Yaoyao?”
Although he knew that Taoyao would not hurt Yaoyao.
But at this time, as a master, he must be worried and vigilant.
Taoyao was not surprised by Gu Changge’s question and replied,
“Help her wash away a few Dao injuries.”
“So Yaoyao will fall asleep for a while. But you can rest assured that I won’t hurt her.”
“To me, her existence is nothing less than that of a relative, a sister.”
“I hope so.”
Hearing this, Gu Changge nodded noncommittally.
“You still don’t believe me?”
Seeing his appearance, Taoyao couldn’t help laughing again, “I will return Yaoyao to you safe and sound, but you, if you dare to bully her, I will not forgive you.”
Gu Changge didn’t take it seriously and said, “Something like old bullying the young, it’s not something I’d do.”
“Oh, are you mocking me?”
Taoyao’s voice became very interesting and demonic.
“It’s good that senior can understand me.”
Hearing this question, Gu Changge finally gave her a serious look.
“Interesting. It’s been a long time since I met someone like you who is not afraid of me. If this had happened earlier, my life would not have been so boring…”
Taoyao was startled.
Then she couldn’t help but laugh, she didn’t care about Gu Changge’s sarcasm.
She suddenly let out a sigh.
At this moment, a figure caused Gu Changge to be in trance for a moment.
This was not a person, but an Enchantress.
She was holding her knees, sitting in the endless wilderness, behind a dead peach tree.
She was very beautiful.
Dark blue hair, like a mirror, light can be seen through it.
She looked at the sea of clouds from a distance, the clear sky and mountains reflected in her pupils, but her expression was lonely, as if she was waiting for someone.
“Is it a memory? Or is she deliberately making me watch this?”
Gu Changge was also a little stunned at this moment, unable to tell whether he saw this scene himself or whether Taoyao was the one who made him see it.
However, what he could be sure of was that Taoyao’s current existence was fundamentally different from the mysterious Peach Tree on the screen that the system prompted.
Taoyao and Yaoyao…They are like sisters.
Only when the two of them fuse, can they become that Peach Tree which was floating above the sea as it was passing through the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation.
But at that time, will the two of them be the same as before?
Maybe Taoyao already knew about this, so she felt a family-like emotion towards Yaoyao.
In this way, Gu Changge did not need to consider the subsequent things.
“I can’t help you with the matter of Innate Demonic Nature, but take this and go find an old guy who owes me a favour. If he’s not dead, he might be able to help you.”
At this time, Taoyao spoke again.
At the same time, a beautiful crystal-like peach leaf fell, with the Dao Runes condensed on it, which looked extremely miraculous.
“It’s also a thank you gift for taking care of Yaoyao for so long.”
And as soon as she finished speaking, her figure gradually disappeared.
Then there was no trace of her again.
As if everything just now was an illusion.
Even the white fog nearby disappeared.
Everything around Peach Village gradually became clear.
Yaoyao slept peacefully under the Peach Tree, and the strands of Dao Chants descended on her.
Gu Changge took this peach leaf, and his eyes couldn’t help but narrow.
Taoyao’s words let him know a lot of information.
‘An old guy?’
‘It must be a character from the same era as Taoyao.’
‘But me, whose Demonic Nature is already in control, has no need to find someone for that.’
‘But… the value of this leaf is beyond imagination. It is equivalent to the favour of an old guy who lived in the same era as Taoyao.’
Thinking of this, Gu Changge couldn’t help but smile a little.
All the purposes of this trip have almost been completed.
The attitude of Taoyao and the old guys in Peach Village towards him determines how much Fortune Value Gu Changge can get from Gu Xian’er.
In this way, the feud of the bones digging could almost finally come to an end.
“What did Sister Taoyao tell you?”
At this time, seeing Gu Changge’s dazed expression, Gu Xian’er couldn’t help being a little curious.
“She didn’t say anything.”
Gu Changge glanced at her, took the peach leaf, and didn’t say much.
“Forget it, I’ll ask Sister Taoyao myself.”
Gu Xian’er snorted and knew that Gu Changge would not tell her this easily.
Soon, she ran to the Peach Tree and asked secretly.
Although Taoyao didn’t appear, after hearing Gu Xian’er asking these questions, she still told her one by one.
There was nothing to hide.
“Gu Changge was born with this…”
Hearing this, Gu Xian’er’s beautiful eyes suddenly widened.
She was extremely surprised. When Taoyao mentioned that Gu Changge had an Innate Devil Heart, she couldn’t believe it.
She has been looking for this all the time.
But she never imagined that it would be the Devil Heart. Since ancient times, only a few people have been born with a Devil Heart, which represents ominous and bad luck.
No wonder Gu Changge’s lineage would try their best to conceal these things.
If you let the rest of the family know, who knows what would happen?
In particular, Gu Changge was the Young Master of the Gu Family, who represented the whole family.
At this moment, she had already thought of the various troubles that can be caused if this matter was exposed.
Even if Gu Changge now possessed terrifying power, it will be very difficult to face these troubles.
Gu Xian’er suddenly felt a little regret and guilt, why was she so reckless, and she planned to bring Gu Changge to Peach Village, revealing the secret of his Innate Devil Heart.
However, the masters of Peach Village and Sister Taoyao would not take the initiative to expose this matter.
Thinking of this, Gu Xian’er couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
“Sister Taoyao, is there any way to solve the problem of the Devil Heart?”
At this time, Gu Xian’er remembered the most important thing.
Taoyao was a little stunned when she heard this.
To be honest, she really had no solution, otherwise, she wouldn’t have given him the peach leaf.
Because the Devil Heart was not simply the cultivator’s heart.
Although when a cultivator reaches a certain level, he can be reborn from a drop of blood.
But that is the case only when the blood essence has not dried up.
In a situation like Gu Changge’s, the Demonic Nature was deeply ingrained in him, and even if the Devil Heart was removed, it would have no effect.
Seeing Taoyao silent.
Gu Xian’er was a little anxious, she knew Taoyao’s character very well, and if she doesn’t speak, it means tacit recognition.
“Sister Taoyao, you know what to do right? It’s fine, even if it’s difficult, I’m willing to try.”
“Gu Changge has done a lot for me, and I want to help him too.”
“Xian’er, if you insist on such a thing…”
Taoyao was also a little confused at this time, seeing Gu Xian’er’s persistent expression, she couldn’t help sighing, and said slowly, “Gu Changge has a Devil Heart and needs to suppress his Demonic Nature so he doesn’t lose control. Just like he dug your bones way before, although he was dominated by Demonic Nature, it is actually something he did subconsciously…”
“So, the Dao Bone can help him suppress the Devil Heart, right?”
When Taoyao said this, Gu Xian’er also understood because she had thought about it before.
It was because Gu Changge returned the Dao Bones to her, he was unable to suppress the Demonic Nature when he was in the Nirvana Pond that day.
She knew that Gu Changge must also understand this.
But he still insisted on returning the Dao Bones to her to repay her.
Completely disregarding the dire situation that will follow.
Taoyao said, “It is a part of the reason.”
“So is it useful to give him my current Bones and let him fuse it again?” Gu Xian’er asked.
Taoyao went silent for a while, and then said,
“A little. The existence of Demonic Nature cannot be fixed and immutable. At this moment, it is still growing inside his body.”
“Xian’er, you can think about it, are you sure?”
After hearing this, Gu Xian’er already knew what to do.
No wonder Sister Taoyao didn’t want to tell her these words, now it’s up to her to choose.
Thinking of this, she suddenly looked at Gu Changge not far away, her expression a little angry and furious.
But there was more tenderness in her eyes, and she couldn’t help shouting,
“Gu Changge, you are usually such a smart person, then why were you so stupid?”
Gu Changge was discussing some things with the village chief of Peach Village and others.
Suddenly he heard Gu Xian’er’s words.
He turned around puzzled and looked at her, “Are you itching for a beating again? Was the lesson from a few days ago not enough?”
But soon, Gu Changge noticed Gu Xian’er’s expression and movements, and cursed her as an idiot in his heart.
With a buzz, spatial fluctuations spread.
His figure disappeared into thin air and reappeared in front of her in an instant.
Then he grabbed Gu Xian’er’s two wrists tightly and stopped her from moving.
This girl actually took out a Divine Weapon and planned to dig out her own Fairy Bones by herself.
Gu Changge never intended to ask for her Fairy Bones from the beginning.
His face suddenly became very indifferent, like a block of ten thousand-year-old ice, having a cold aura.
“Gu Xian’er, you idiot, what are you trying to do?”
“Gu Changge, let me go, you are an idiot, I am obviously trying to save you.”
Gu Xian’er glared at him, but she couldn’t beat Gu Changge’s strength and break free.
“As long as I dig out the Fairy Bones for you, you can suppress your Demonic Nature, and things that happened in the Nirvana Pool last time will not happen again in the future.”
“As for me, they will probably regrow after some time so it will be alright…”
“Shut up.”
Hearing these words, Gu Changge looked gloomy and unpleasant, and quickly covered her mouth.
“Listen, you have to keep the Fairy Bones for me. When I want it in the future, I will come to you to get it.”
“If you dare to take matters into your own hands and dig it out, Gu Xian’er, I will let you know what it means to live worse than death.”
“Grrr…”
Hearing this, Gu Xian’er was not reconciled at all, and was still staring at him like a furious kitten.
It’s just that Gu Changge tightly covered her mouth and couldn’t make any sound.
She was so angry that her lungs were about to explode.
She had good intentions.
But in the end, Gu Changge didn’t appreciate them at all.
“I won’t go so far as to ask you to use your Fairy Bones to save me.”
At this time, seeing Gu Xian’er’s expression, Gu Changge sighed.
His tone gradually softened.
“Why are you so ignorant?”
“If that day comes, I’d rather die than let you get hurt like this.”
Hearing this, Gu Xian’er’s eyes suddenly widened.
Then her head went blank with a buzz.
Everyone was stunned.
