Starting With Chaos Physique

Chapter 66: Plant Slave Seals to Mine for the Gu Family, Jingyang Cheered

Hearing Chu Yaoyue’s words, Gu Changsheng slightly nodded but didn’t say much.

His calm gaze remained fixed on Guzar.

Chu Yaoyue stood to the side, feeling the aura of Gu Changsheng.

For some reason, all the grievances and unease she had accumulated before completely vanished.

It was as if only by his side could she feel such rare tranquility.

“The Ancient God Clan was once a powerful clan under the stars, ranked within the top hundred of the Three Thousand Dao Domains.”

“But now, it seems they can’t even rank within the top ten thousand.”

“Too foolish, being used as mere tools by others.”

Behind Gu Changsheng, Su Xiaoxuan murmured softly.

Even she could see that if the Ancient God Clan wasn’t foolish, then there must be some other immortal forces supporting them from behind.

It was just uncertain which of the immortal forces it could be.

After all, when the Ancient God Clan confronted the Immortal Family, describing it as trying to crush a stone with an egg was an understatement.

At this point, does this Five-Star Ancient God still think he can hide the truth?

Guzar’s expression was grim and humiliated as he said, “What would a little maid like you understand? For the glory of my clan, I, Guzar, would sacrifice everything, even my life, without hesitation…”

Gu Changsheng waved his hand, interrupting him, his gaze filled with curiosity.

“Let me guess first. Who exactly is supporting you from behind? Otherwise, with the courage of your branch, even approaching the Gu Family’s territory within a billion miles would be quite the feat.”

Yes, you heard it right.

A billion miles.

It’s not that he looked down on Guzar’s branch, but because during the rebellion war 800,000 years ago, the Guzar surname of the Ancient God Clan was the first to flee.

But they also shouted the loudest.

Commonly known as a ‘paper tiger’, all bark and no bite.

Guzar’s expression darkened once again, his face filled with humiliation.

If there were no forces supporting them from behind, they certainly wouldn’t dare to oppose the Immortal Family.

That was the harsh truth.

“It’s the Fallen Dragon Ridge and the Myriad Phoenix Nest, isn’t it?”

Gu Changsheng asked again, revealing a smile filled with intrigue.

In the Three Thousand Dao Domains, if there were any forces that hated the Immortal Gu Family the most, almost all clan members would unanimously name two.

The Fallen Dragon Ridge!

The Myriad Phoenix Nest!

Thirty million years ago, the ancient ancestors of these two Primordial Royal Clans, in order to extend their lives, launched a dark rebellion together. Countless life domains along the way were devastated, and lives were extinguished.

In the end, it was a peerless figure from the Gu Family who stepped in and killed those two ancient ancestors!

This incident directly led to deep hatred between these two Primordial Royal Clans and the Immortal Gu Family.

Since then, various skirmishes and wars had occurred.

Eight hundred thousand years ago, the rebellion of the Ancient God Clan was also backed by these two forces.

And the Gu Family did not completely annihilate them because, on one hand, other immortal forces would intervene to prevent the balance from being disrupted.

On the other hand, and most importantly, it was rumored that the Primordial Dragon and the Ancestral Phoenix were not truly dead.

These two beings, in their peak, could rival the terrifying existence of an Immortal King.

“Yes…”

Upon hearing this, Guzar’s heart trembled, and then he lowered his enormous head deeply, utterly disheartened.

So, the Gu Family had known all along.

Training?

It’s not that they looked down on us; they simply never considered us worthy of attention.

Understanding this point, bitterness and despair appeared on his lips.

“Elder Fu, plant a Slave Seal. After all, he’s a Five-Star Ancient God, with strength comparable to a Semi-Saint realm cultivator. Recently, several rare divine veins have been discovered in the Ancient Qilin Star Domain. Let him go there to mine; at least, he can be put to some use.”

“As for the duration, let’s set it at eight hundred thousand years.”

Gu Changsheng withdrew his gaze from Guzar and then smiled slightly at Elder Fu behind him.

With just a few words, he decided the fate of a Five-Star Ancient God.

He didn’t kill him.

After all, in this current era, a Semi-Saint was still quite rare.

At least, Gu Changsheng hadn’t seen a world where Semi-Saints were everywhere.

“All shall be as the Divine Son commands.” Elder Fu smiled and nodded.

Then, he personally took action and planted a Slave Seal on Guzar.

All of this left many of the Jingyang Dynasty’s generals who were observing from a distance secretly astonished and speechless.

A Semi-Saint going to mine?

Such extravagance can only come from the Immortal Family.

Though Guzar felt deeply resentful, there was nothing he could do.

Compared to death, surviving was already a blessing.

As for mining for the Gu Family for eight hundred thousand years, it was nothing compared to his long life.

In fact, this was the Gu Family already showing great mercy.

“Thank you, Divine Son, for your timely assistance. The Jingyang Dynasty will never forget your kindness, generation after generation.”

After adjusting his breathing for a while, the old Emperor came forward with gratitude.

His words were heartfelt.

The Immortal Family’s subordinate forces were countless, and the Jingyang Dynasty was only a trivial one.

Even if it was destroyed, it probably wouldn’t even cause a ripple.

Gu Changsheng’s expression remained unchanged as he waved his hand. “Jingyang is a subordinate of the Gu Family. Facing such a situation, the Gu Family naturally wouldn’t stand by and do nothing.”

Then, a richly fragrant purple pill flew to the old Emperor.

“This pill can heal your injuries, but your origin is already damaged. At most, you have five years to live, and by then, even immortals cannot save you.”

Here’s the translation of the passage:

Gu Changsheng continued.

The old emperor accepted the pill with overwhelming gratitude and quickly said, “Thank you, Divine Child, for your gracious gift.”

Then, he deeply bowed.

The emperor only has five years to live?

Hearing this, Chu Yaoyue’s eyes dimmed.

However, the old emperor didn’t care about this at all. Originally, today was a certain death situation for him. Being able to live even one more day was already a blessing from the heavens.

Gu Changsheng had extended his life by five years.

This grace was greater than the heavens, impossible to repay.

Of course, his complicated and emotional gaze partially fell upon Chu Yaoyue as well.

In his view, Gu Changsheng’s willingness to lend assistance was most likely related to Chu Yaoyue.

He still remembered that decree from a few years ago.

Seeing the old emperor’s gaze, Chu Yaoyue felt a bitter pain in her heart. She understood clearly that it couldn’t possibly be because of her.

She still had that much self-awareness…

Gu Changsheng glanced at Chu Yaoyue indifferently but didn’t say anything.

If he hadn’t come today, Jingyang would undoubtedly have been destroyed.

But now, looking at the situation, there was no difference from destruction.

Afterwards, with the Gu Family’s intervention, the Chi Li Ancient Kingdom practically offered no resistance. Their army began a frantic retreat.

Although the Jingyang Dynasty wanted to pursue them, they were also aware of the huge disparity in combat power between the two sides.

After reaching the border, they did not continue the pursuit.

Following this, the warships of the Gu Family returned to the Jingyang Imperial City. The entire city erupted in cheers, and excitement spread across all territories. News of what happened today quickly spread everywhere.

The Ancient God Clan had supported the Chi Li Ancient Kingdom’s rebellion!

The Immortal Gu Family descended and swiftly quelled and cleansed the chaos!

This news swept across the world like a hurricane.

Many members of the Jingyang royal family who had already fled were filled with regret, their faces turning pale.

“If I had known the Immortal Gu Family would intervene, I wouldn’t have run! Why bother running at all? The mere Chi Li Ancient Kingdom, how could it be something to fear!” A young prince spoke with a face full of regret and bitterness.

“No wonder Chu Yaoyue was so brave and decisive, defending the capital to the death! It turns out she knew the Immortal Family would step in. Damn it, she didn’t even tell us beforehand…”

Some princes and princesses were full of resentment, thinking that Chu Yaoyue kept it from them so that there would be less competition for the throne in the future.

“This is too much. We are her siblings, yet she hid something like this from us. She doesn’t value us at all!”

“Now that the Immortal Gu Family is supporting us, Jingyang will certainly be fine.”

“No, I have to hurry back before there’s nothing left and that scheming woman Chu Yaoyue swallows everything up.”

One lavishly dressed prince and princess after another yelled at their servants and coachmen to turn their carriages around and rush back to the imperial capital.
