Chapter 13: The Act Begins. Can’t Catch the Person Without Sparing the Pill

“Gu Changge, you unscrupulous and shameless bastard. You not only stole away my Qingge, but now you’re getting ideas about my master…”

Ye Chen had a very ugly expression on his face.

It was warped with rage as he furiously insulted Gu Changge.

His personal thoughts were that Gu Changge was trying to seduce his master. He never even thought that Gu Changge was trying to sow discord between the two of them.

Especially since he actually had a thread of impure thought when it came to Yan Ji.

Normally, he treated her as his master.

But in his heart, he actually considered her to be his personal possession that no one else was allowed to touch.

At this moment, after getting insulted by Gu Changge, the anger and hate had he had accumulated the past few days nearly expoded.

“Oh? Stole away your Qingge was it. I’m afraid I won’t be taking the blame for that.”

When he heard Ye Chen’s insults, Gu Changge didn’t act surprised at all. Instead, he just let out a light laugh.

“The fact is that from start to end, it was all of her own free will. I never forced Su Qingge at all. Did you misunderstand something? Plus, were my words just now wrong?”

“Humans climb upward. Water flows downward. Such is the natural order of all things.”

“Rather, if you really did want the best for your master, then you shouldn’t be holding her back. Did you really think that a thread of remnant soul could continue to exist for long in this world?”

Every word struck its mark, hitting the weak points for massive damage.

Ye Chen’s face turned unbelievably ugly. His fists clenched tightly.

Of course he knew that a soul remnant can’t exist in the world for long. That’s why he wanted to get stronger as fast as possible, in order to help his master reforge her body.

“Little Chen. Calm down…”

Yan Ji sighed to herself and activated her power.

Instantly, a cool force of will entered Ye Chen’s mind and forcibly calmed him down.

He was a young man in his hotblooded period.

Merely a few words from Gu Changge was enough to completely send his mind into chaos, erasing any trace of his normal steadiness and perseverance.

She doesn’t know either just why the normally fairly smart Ye Chen would keep acting like an idiot over and over in front of Gu Changge.

Was such a tiny setback enough to keep him from getting up again?

“Maseter…”

Ye Chen clenched his teeth. His unstable mentality also slowly calmed back down.

Gu Changge’s word just now were vicious. It was like a sharp blade, piercing straight into his heart.

“Ding! Ye Chen’s mental state damaged. 20 Fortune Value lost. 100 Fate Points gained.”

The system notification pinged then.

However, Gu Changge didn’t particularly pay any attention to it.

“What does senior think? If you follow me, not only can I aid you in reforging your body, I can even help you return to your former peak.”

“I think the senior knows of my origins too. What kind of powers I represent, I think senior knows better than anyone.”

“Plus, although this is my own opinion, I believe that I am far better than Ye Chen in every quality…”

He continued to speak with a sincere attitude, as if he’s serious trying to appeal to a potential talent.

As for Ye Chen over at the side, he was completely ignored.

Even Yan Ji who’s been frowning all this time had a hard time figuring out Gu Changge’s true intentions here.

Sowing discord?

With Gu Changge’s true powers, it’d be far too simple for him to just kill Ye Chen, so what’s even the point of using such tactics.

Perhaps she’s overthinking it.

It seems like he’s pure in his intentions of getting her to follow him?

Truth be told, she actually has a pretty good impression of Gu Changge.

After all, she had experience and seen much over her long life, so she knew full well that Gu Changge hadn’t actually done anything wrong in this situation.

Rather, it was Ye Chen who kept maintaining a bad attitude and even announced his intentions to kill Gu Changge.

But Gu Changge didn’t really retaliate either.

Such generousness and wide-mindedness. His future was inestimable.

“Lord Gu. There’s no need for you to say anymore. I greatly owe little Chen, so until he had fully grown, I won’t be abandoning him.”

Then, Yan Ji shook her head and directly refused Gu Changge’s good-willed solicitation.

Although it was very tempting, it wasn’t enough to make her betray her principles.

Gu Changge seemed somewhat disappointed by her answer.

He sighed.

“Of course. I’ll give senior some time to consider it. If you were to follow me, I can even excuse Ye Chen’s previous offenses against me. Even something like getting the Taixuan Holy Land to call off his punishment would take but a word.”

“As for Su Qingge, I can bestow her to him as well.”

“You…”

Those words made veins pop out of Ye Chen’s forhead.

He was suppressing his emotions with all he had.

At this point, Ye Chen had understood. Not only did Gu Changge want to humiliate him, he even wanted to take away all he had.

He just stopped talking altogether. However, his eyes were as cold as ice.

The Su Qingge that he so admired, according to Gu Changge, was someone whose fate could be decided with a single word of bestowal from the mouth of that Gu Changge.

In this Darwinist world, whose with true power can do as they like.

“Enough lord Gu. I already recognize your sincerity…”

Yan Ji was rather stunned. She never imagined that Gu Changge could actually say something like that.

It can be said that he had shown himself fully sincere.

“Senior should properly think it over some more. I won’t ever force someone else, nor will I use Ye Chen’s life to threaten senior.”

At this time, Gu Changge spoke up again with a strange look in his eyes.

If he really could kill Ye Chen, there’s now way that he’d have dragged it out so long.

Although this Yan Ji had lived a long time, her thoughts were rather simplistic. She was actually far easier to deal with than Su Qingge.

He was able to remove all prejudice against him from her heart with but a few words here and there.

Well, he had prepared quite a bit for the act this night.

He had already spoken all that he should have. Now, all he needed to do was wait for the crack between master and disciple to widen.

Then, he could swoop in to take the prize.

“This pill is known as the Spirit Concentration Pill. I believe the senior should recognize it.”

At that moment, Gu Changge gave a small smile and unhurriedly took out an object from his robes.

It as a faintly violet colored pill with a five colored aurora aura radiating from it.

All kinds of phantasms appeared all around it. Mountain, seas, palaces appeared and disappeared, making it seem especially mysterious.

“That’s Spirit Concentration Pill?”

Yan Ji couldn’t hold back her surprised exclamation. She couldn’t hide her shock.

“Senior’s current situation is not great. Take this pill as a gift from me to commemorate our meeting.” Gu Changge smiled.

Then, he left the pill. He didn’t give Yan Ji a chance to refuse and just directly left the dungeons.

As the old saying goes.

You can’t collar the wolf if you’re unwilling to spare the child.

The smile on Gu Changge slowly transformed into a smirk.
