Chapter 280
As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a huge shock in the northern border!
What secrets lie within Jade Emperor Mountain? And which ancient sage left behind the divine bell that vibrates with divine power?
All of this may only be known when the major transcendental forces capture Jade Emperor Mountain.
"I seem to have made a huge mess." Gu Chi's mouth twitched. She didn't expect that there would be such a big commotion in Yuhuang Mountain. Even the major transcendental forces combined could not attack it. Instead, they suffered heavy casualties and were almost wiped out.
What she is more worried about now is what happened to that old man Ling Xiaoke and whether he has escaped from the turmoil.
"Don't really die there, you haven't taught me your Wuji Tian Gong, which is said to be invincible." Gu Chi muttered to himself as he looked at the skyline.
Not long after, she got new information. The major transcendental forces did not stop because of this failure, and had already begun preparing for the second attack on Yuhuang Mountain.
"There's a grand event tonight. The Ninth Princess of our Jiuli Dynasty is entertaining distinguished guests. Many of the younger generation's most talented people will be there." Murong Zhixiu pulled out an invitation and said with a grin, "I just happened to have an invitation too. Would you like to come over and take a look?"
"Ninth Princess?" Gu Chi raised her eyebrows slightly. Could it be the Ninth Princess whom she had kidnapped before?
She glanced at the invitation in Murong Zhixiu's hand and teased, "How could a hated little bandit like you be invited? Did you steal it from someone else again?"
Murong Zhixiu was speechless for a moment, then said, "I'm not that hated, am I? Besides, with my fame in the Northern Territory, how could she not invite me?"
Gu Chi curled his lips and said, "I seem to be quite famous in the Northern Territory. Why didn't she invite me? Does she look down on me?"
"Come to think of it, you and the Ninth Princess are old acquaintances. Are you sure you don't want to go over and take a look?" Murong Zhixiu tried to hold back his laughter.
Gu Chi naturally knew what he was thinking. This guy was just hoping that her identity would be discovered by the Ninth Princess at the banquet and then attacked by everyone.
But she was also curious about how the Ninth Princess had changed after so many years.
"Well, let's go and meet him." Gu Chi made the decision.
In the evening, the crimson clouds painted half of the sky of the Nine Holy City red, as if flames were raging, and the edges of each cloud were rimmed with brilliant gold.
A vast royal manor located in the southeast corner of the Nine Holy City.
At this time, there were already many people outside the manor. Many people had arrived, either descending from the sky or riding in luxurious and gorgeous sedan chairs and chariots. They all looked very imposing and extraordinary.
"Get out of the way!"
In the distance, someone shouted, and a purple-gold chariot came rushing over, pulled by several ferocious beasts, and the sky was roaring as it was trampled.
The people who were invited here all had extraordinary identities. They were all prominent geniuses among the younger generation, and the forces behind them were also extraordinary.
However, when they saw the chariot, some people in front chose to avoid it, not wanting to cause trouble here.
Behind the purple gold chariot, there was another chariot with even more luxurious decorations, which was pulled by several auspicious beasts stepping on auspicious clouds. They had no intention of avoiding and rushed all the way.
Just when the two were about to collide, the sedan chair at the back leaped up and directly jumped over the purple-gold sedan chair in front.
"boom!"
Smoke and dust rose up, and several auspicious beasts pulled a luxurious and majestic chariot. When they landed, they deliberately splashed a cloud of smoke and dust into the sky, submerging the purple gold chariot behind it, and a silver bell-like laughter was heard, which was extremely ostentatious.
In the back, the people in the purple gold carriage immediately became furious. This was clearly a provocation.
One of them was about to attack, but was quickly stopped by the other person sitting next to him. The latter whispered, "Do you know who that person is? She's the Holy Maiden of Wanyan Holy Land, a notorious femme fatale in the North. If you provoke her, be careful that one day you won't even know how you died!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the young monk who was about to take action just now turned pale and his body trembled slightly.
There is a huge contrast between the Holy Son and the Holy Daughter of Wanyan Holy Land. One is tactful, gentle and polite to others, and never overbearing.
The other one is sharp and mean, with a heart as cruel as a snake. Sometimes she would kill people for some trivial matter, and she would kill them cruelly. She completely lacks the holiness and transcendence that a saint of a big sect should have. Usually, no one is willing to provoke this crazy woman.
At this time, many people had already entered the manor. Gu Chi did not receive an invitation, but because he was accompanied by Murong Zhixiu, he was not stopped.
This is a royal manor built by the Jiuli Dynasty in Jiusheng City. It can also be said to be a temporary palace. It has many courtyards and is very magnificent. It shines brightly in the dim night, like a beautiful palace located in the world.
"Hey, is that Sikong Sheng from Xuanyuan Immortal Palace? He is one of the most powerful people among the younger generation of Xuanyuan Immortal Palace. I heard that when their Holy Son and Holy Daughter were suppressed by Qianhe, he was selected as one of the candidates for the substitute Holy Son." Someone muttered in a low voice.
Gu Chi followed the man's gaze and saw a young man wearing a white Taoist robe and with an ordinary appearance. He was gathered with several other young geniuses from different sects, praising each other.
She frowned slightly, turned her head to look at Murong Zhixiu, and said through her telepathic consciousness, "How many candidates for Holy Sons has the Xuanyuan Immortal Palace selected? Can this kind of idiot even be included?"
It wasn't that she was arrogant, but the young man named Sikong Sheng made her feel too weak, even inferior to Sikong Lingyun.
"It's just a rumor. We are not from Xuanyuan Immortal Palace, so how can we know whether it is true or not? Just listen to it for fun." Murong Zhixiu waved his hand disapprovingly.
There were many people invited to the manor, but none of the top-notch geniuses among the younger generation came. In Gu Chi's opinion, the quality of the place was not very good and was far inferior to the place where Fairy Lianxin came that night.
Gu Chizhi smacked his lips and said, "I never thought that the Ninth Princess of the Jiuli Dynasty would have less appeal than a prostitute."
When these people meet each other, they will flatter each other regardless of whether they know each other or not. Some people also gather together to discuss the current influential figures in the world and who has the strongest fighting power.
However, Gu Chi's mind was not on these topics. She smelled a medicinal fragrance and her heart was shocked. She walked forward quickly following the smell and soon came to a medicinal field.
There is a large formation guarding this place. The pattern of the formation turns into a curtain of light that covers the entire medicinal field. There is brilliant light and auspicious colors inside, and it emits a refreshing fragrance.
"This level of medicinal fragrance must be from a very old medicine king. There are so many of them..." Gu Chi was surprised.
This medicinal field covers a large area, and the soil in it is not ordinary soil. It glows and looks very magical.
Looking around, there are sword-leaf grasses with black light flowing, crystal clear like black jade, and sword-shaped leaves; there are red heart orchids with red light gushing out all over their bodies, as red as blood; there are also sunflowers with surging golden light, like a swaying sun.
