C3122 At the Beginning of the Trial
C3122 At the Beginning of the Trial
Chi Ling'er knew that Gu Huang had set up a big chess game in the north, but the time was not ripe yet, so she had to be careful with every step. If she acted rashly, she might lose the entire game.
"Wait." Gu Huang looked into the distance as if he was deep in thought.
"What are you waiting for? Scoundrel, can you stop being so secretive? If you have something to say, just say it!" Chi Ling'er couldn't help but curl her lips. What this villain was thinking and what he was doing, she would never be able to guess. Sometimes, he was clearly an old fox who had schemed everything out.
"Wait for that bitch to call us. There's definitely a conspiracy between the Two Moon Clan and the Night family. Just you watch! That bitch won't be able to hold it in much longer."
Gu Huang stood with his hands behind his back, a mysterious smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, as if he was planning a strategy to win the battle.
"Alright, alright, stop talking. It's too tiring. We can't just do nothing, right? Let's just wait and see." Chi Ling'er felt a little helpless. The more she looked at Gu Huang, the less he looked like a teenager. He was clearly an old fox who had been through a lot.
"You're right. We still don't do anything. Ling'er, let's play around in the north for the next few days and relax our minds."
Gu Huang knew very well that this was just the calm before the storm. The Northern Lands was about to fall into chaos, and it would be impossible for them to be so peaceful in the future.
"Really? Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Chi Ling'er was pleasantly surprised. She had never been at peace during the ten years she had been on the run, and she had spent them in a state of anxiety and fear. Ever since she had met this villain, she had learned what it meant to be safe, and she cherished every day they spent together.
For three days in a row, Gu Huang and Chi Ling'er wandered around the Northern Lands. They were like wandering scholars, aimlessly walking all over the place, thirsty for mountain springs, hungry for wild fruits, completely forgetting that they were martial cultivators and all the responsibilities they carried.
They comprehended the nature of heaven and earth, the myriad laws of the universe, forgot all troubles, and did whatever they wanted.
Looking at the sunrise and the stars, enjoying the rhythm of life and the harmony of nature.
On the evening of the third day, on a low hill, Chi Ling'er and Gu Huang hugged each other as they watched the sun set in the west. The afterglow of the setting sun enveloped their bodies, as if time had stopped, space had stopped, and everything seemed eternal.
"Do you think, villain, that if we were to give up everything that we are now shouldering, and leave the hubbub and bustle of the world behind us, and all our grudges behind us, you and I should be able to travel the world and see all the hubbub of the heavens?"
Chi Ling'er turned to look at Gu Huang, her bright eyes carrying a trace of sadness, but she knew that this was impossible. Everyone had to bear everything, and giving up was selfish behavior. She still had a huge Asura Clan, and Gu Huang was carrying everything of the Human Clan, but she really wanted to give up everything on her and just quietly leave.
"Ling'er, how could I not want to let go of everything? How could I not want to be a free and unfettered prodigal son? We don't talk about the righteousness and the race, but if I leave, who will protect our families, friends, and loved ones? "
" If one day, there is no war in the ten thousand worlds, all living things coexist peacefully, the world is peaceful, the Human Clan can live and work in peace, and the people are like dragons. "
"Ling'er, at that time, I will definitely give up everything and accompany you to travel the world. I will see all the hustle and bustle, and stay away from all the conflicts of the mortal world."
Gu Huang raised his head and looked at the sky. This had always been his goal, but he didn't know what the future would be like. However, he had no way out.
"Villain, is this your promise?" Chi Ling'er's beautiful eyes were like water, filled with a different kind of charm.
"It's a promise, but..."
"Don't say anything more. Just remember that this is your promise, and let me help you accomplish your goal. Then we will retire from this conflict, and when I rule the Asura Race in the future, I will become a blade in your hands, sweeping away all obstacles for you."
Chi Ling'er's eyes were sharp, as if she were the queen of the heavens, and she had never been so determined.
"Ling'er, what did I do to make you sacrifice so much for me? How can I repay your kindness?" Gu Huang let out a long sigh, his eyes filled with helplessness. Chi Ling'er had already completely expressed everything about herself, but his future was destined to be filled with darkness and battle. No one knew what the future would be like.
"No matter if the heavens and earth collapse, the era is destroyed, a thousand years, ten thousand years, generation after generation, I will wait for you. I don't ask for anything else, I only ask that you have me in your heart. All of this is enough."
Chi Ling-Er had always been strong. She was the same about herself. She wouldn't hide anything. She would fight for what she needed.
"If I can live, I will repay you with my life." Gu Huang felt a heavy responsibility and an inexplicable pressure. No matter what the future held, if there was a chance, he would let them live first.
At this time, a spatial Message Talisman tore through the air and landed in front of Gu Huang in an instant, directly revealing a line of large words, "Nameless, the situation is critical. Return as soon as you see me."
"The bitch can't hold it in any longer. Why don't we put it off another night and go back tomorrow?"
Chi Ling'er smiled slightly. Sure enough, everything was within Gu Huang's calculations. Xue Yun, that bitch, was destined to be unlucky to meet an opponent like Gu Huang.
"Let's go back! I don't think it's about the exiled land. It's because the Two Moon Clan and the Ye family's plan has been revealed. Don't forget Xue Yuan's message yesterday. We couldn't find any trace of him. It's obvious that the Two Moon Clan and the Ye family have teamed up to set up a big game of chess."
Gu Huang stood up, his eyes flickering with a trace of seriousness. To be able to force Xue Yun to summon him now, it must not be a small matter. It was very likely that this would be the start of the chaos.
"Alright! Then let's go back! Let's see how that bitch is doing." Chi Ling'er wasn't happy. It wasn't easy for her to be alone with this bastard. Although it was only a short three days, it would be the best memory.
Gu Huang opened the spatial gate and headed to the nearest city to rent a flying boat. Six hours later, it was already close to midnight. The two of them landed at the entrance of the Nine Cloud Sect's Procedural Hall.
First Elder Hai Zhiwen, Sixth Elder Hua Yishan, Seventh Elder Feng Buping, Ninth Elder Feng Buping, Xue Yun, and the upper echelon of the Nine Cloud Sect were all gathered together. All of them had anxious expressions and sighed. Even Xue Yun had a straight face. The atmosphere in the conference hall was extremely tense and suffocating.
Gu Huang walked in with a flash and naturally felt the oppressive atmosphere, "Xue Yun, Elders, what happened?"
"Young Master Nameless, the Silver Moon Trial that happens once every three years has begun. I'm afraid that our Nine Cloud Sect won't be able to escape this time!" Hua Yishan sighed heavily as his eyes were filled with fear.
"What kind of trial is the Silver Moon Trial? It involves the life and death of the Nine Cloud Sect. Who can tell me in detail?" Gu Huang immediately sat down and swept his gaze across Xue Yun and the elders.
"The Silver Moon Trial is held once every three years by the Eight Big Forces within fifty thousand miles of the Silver Moon Mountain Range. This is to set the area within a thousand miles of the Silver Moon Mountain Range as the location of the trial. Each Clan will send three hundred inner disciples, ten Core disciples, and a thousand outer disciples to the same area for three days."
"The last clan to survive will lose control of the Silver Moon Mountains and be replaced by those below."
First Elder Hai Zhiwen's eyes twinkled with a solemn light. The Nine Cloud Sect had just started to expand, and who knew how many elite disciples would be eliminated in this battle. Losing one of them would make their hearts ache. These were the pillars of the sect's future development.
"Three years ago, you were able to grow from nothing to what you are now. Let's just do what we did three years ago!" Gu Huang vaguely felt that things were not that simple. After all, even Xue Yun did not make a sound. This was extremely strange.
"Nameless, the rules have changed this time. Those who participated three years ago are not allowed to enter. Otherwise, I wouldn't be in such a hurry. According to the information I got, the remaining forces have formed an alliance. They want to kill all of our Nine Cloud Sect before fighting for the rights of the Silver Moon Mountain Range."
Xue Yun shook her head helplessly. If it wasn't for the rules, she wouldn't be scared of those trash and would just kill them.
"Hoho! What a big tree that attracts the wind! These past few years, the development of the Nine Cloud Sect has probably already caused several major powers to be very wary of it. You want me to lead a team to participate in this trial, don't you?"
Gu Huang smiled slightly. He had already seen through their intentions.
"Young master Nameless, we have no other choice. Now that only you and Miss Ling'er are leading the team, perhaps our Nine Cloud Sect will have a chance of survival."
The Seventh Elder felt somewhat ashamed. After all, Gu Huang had just joined the Nine Cloud Sect, and it was unreasonable for him to do such a thing.
"Nameless, if you don't want to participate, we won't force you." Xue Yun stood up and glanced at Gu Huang. After all, there was no need for him to risk his life for the Nine Cloud Sect, but there was no other way.
"Elders, Xue Yun, you're treating me like an outsider. I just want to ask if the seven forces will join forces against the Nine Cloud Sect if I kill all the disciples of the seven forces."
Gu Huang stood up with his hands behind his back, a confident smile on his face.
"What... This..." The elders led by Hai Zhiwen were stunned on the spot. He had killed all the disciples of the seven great forces. Oh my god! A nameless young master! [Don't you know how dangerous the Silver Moon Test is?] [There are so many methods!] [Thousands of people!] [How can you be so sure that you can kill all of them?]
[Shouldn't you be worried about how to get out alive? You are worried about the revenge of the seven forces! Oh my god! What kind of monster are you? How can you be so confident?]
"Wu Ming, the Silver Moon Trial is an ancient inheritance. No matter how the battle ends, you are not allowed to take revenge. If anyone dares to break the rules, the Nine Cloud Sect will not be easy to deal with."
The eyes of the Snow God's Eye were full of light. Indeed, he didn't misjudge this nameless person. The seven forces have underestimated the Nine Cloud Sect. This time, I will teach you a lesson that you will never forget for the rest of your lives.
"That's good. Choose the people and gather at the martial arts field! But since the seven forces are forming an alliance, Xue Yun, we need to be wary."
Gu Huang stretched his body slightly. On the surface, he seemed to be extremely confident, but a pressure that came out of nowhere swept over him. The matter was probably not as simple as it seemed on the surface! Just where did the Nine Cloud Sect touch their taboo, to actually make the seven great forces join forces? One could imagine the tricks behind this. However, let that bitch Xue Yun have a headache!
