Chapter 103: Gu Changqing, Can You Bear To?

Outside the mirror.

When they saw that furry fox tail, all the cultivators’ eyes widened!

This tail had pure white fur, like snow.

More importantly, the part where it should have been attached to its body still had bloodstains. It was filled with divinity and tiny divine runes that were as small as little flies.

As the tail was chopped off, the divine runes in the blood dissipated quickly.

This was clearly the tail of a divine fox with a powerful bloodline.

And that was also why.

After a brief period of shock, everyone started staring at Bai Su.

After all, the only powerful cultivator in the Justice Alliance that had fox lineage.

Bai Su was the only one with fox lineage, and her bloodline was almost unparalleled in power.

Bai Su sensed the stares of everyone and snapped in a displeased tone, “Why are all of you staring at me!”

“Do all of you think this fox tail was chopped off from my body?!”

All the cultivators quickly turned aside, not daring to stare at her anymore because they were afraid they’d make her angry.

Bai Su continued in an icy voice, “The Qingqiu Spirit Foxes are not the only foxes in the world after all. There are plenty of other divine fox races. How dare you pin such a matter on my clan!”

Everyone remained silent. A Great Emperor was questioning them, so nobody dared to argue back.

But actually, when Bai Su saw the tail, her heart dropped for a moment.

She felt that this tail looked somewhat familiar.

Where had she seen it before…

She simply couldn’t recall.

“If that’s the case, the Moon Goddess was probably possessed by the Golden Crow Great Emperor’s wife, who was also the Moon Goddess’ older sister?”

“After all, the fox race woman we can’t see addressed the Moon Goddess as her queen!”

“And the Heavenly Emperor had been framed for this entire thing. After all, the plan that those two were talking about earlier was likely a plot against the Heavenly Emperor,” said one of the cultivators.

“Are you serious? You people just realized this?” some cultivators mocked the slower ones.

After this scene, more and more people had sorted their thoughts out and more and more of them had come to this realization.

…

Inside the mirror.

Gu Changqing did not stay in this city any longer.

Because he had sensed that terrifying wrathful aura once again.

This aura was like a ghost, ephemeral and unpredictable.

As though it was covered by something powerful, so not even Gu Changqing could lock down this aura’s traces.

Slaaaash!

Gu Changqing used his bare hands to tear the void open and arrived at yet another city.

Just like the two cities before, this third one was strewn with dead bodies, their blood flowing like a river. As if this was hell on earth.

Gu Changqing’s expression was grim.

Just like before, more and more mortals and human cultivators had begun accusing him.

Gu Changqing did not respond and just kept tearing through the void to search for that aura.

He chased the aura through ten whole cities.

And finally found it.

That was a man with only one arm, surrounded by so much murderous qi, he looked like an asura had descended, a rakshasa on earth.

He stood in the middle of the sea of corpses, his white clothing drenched in blood, his entire self was stained a glaring shade of red.

Right now, he was smiling ferociously at Gu Changqing.

That was a man whose looks, figure and bearing was identical to Gu Changqing!

…

Outside the mirror.

By now, even the dumbest cultivators got it.

“In that case, the massacre of humans didn’t have even the slightest bit to do with the Heavenly Emperor!”

“Those mortals pointed him out and accused him like that because the real killer had made themselves look just like the Heavenly Emperor!”

All the cultivators were horrified.

Nobody had expected such an evil person to actually exist!

This person actually took the lives of ten cities worth of people, then framed the Heavenly Emperor for it!

Ten cities of people was nothing, given the huge population of humans.

But such a cruel and senseless act was enough to ruin the Heavenly Emperor’s reputation.

And that was also probably why this person had stopped running after they finished killing the people in ten cities and just stood there to wait for the Heavenly Emperor to arrive.

It was because their aim had been met!

…

“Impossible! Impossible!”

Only the two human cultivators present were still in disbelief.

“The Heavenly Emperor had been protecting the Nine States all this time. If he didn’t do it, then why didn’t he appear when the human race faced a catastrophe and we called on him repeatedly?”

When they heard these words, several cultivators couldn’t help but make a face.

The way the human race had misunderstood the Heavenly Emperor, the way they had cursed and spat at the Heavenly Emperor.

The fact that the Heavenly Emperor hadn’t just wiped out more humans to teach them a lesson was not bad already. Why should the Heavenly Emperor be obliged to appear when these same humans were in trouble?

The Heavenly Emperor was the ruler of the humans because he was a human who had reached the Emperor stage of cultivation.

But that had nothing to do with the human race itself.

He had created human dao, he had created a cultivation system that could reach such great heights, he had given humans so much wisdom, and he even gave up an immortal weapon, leaving it inside the human race’s ancestral temple to increase and keep qi and blessings for humans.

Every single thing he had done – hadn’t the Heavenly Emperor done more than enough for humans?

Protecting the humans was out of goodwill! Not protecting them was only to be expected!

This twisted sort of moral argument made several cultivators rather angry.

But of course.

They were supposed to be on the good side that opposed the Heavenly Emperor. Of course they weren’t going to say any of these thoughts out loud.

But many of them still tried to take the moral high ground and chimed in with the two human cultivators, “The Heavenly Emperor is being a little petty, alright. If he decided to ignore the humans just because of this small misunderstanding, I think he’s not being magnanimous enough.”

Several others made a face.

Not being magnanimous enough?

Why don’t you try getting cursed at by countless humans!!

But no matter how annoyed they were or how much they disagreed, nobody dared to actually say these thoughts out loud.

The Heavenly Emperor was a powerful being who nearly destroyed the world.

Under such circumstances, if the powerful cultivators weren’t going to speak up for the Heavenly Emperor, then the less powerful ones were definitely going to keep their mouths shut. They didn’t want to be annihilated within seconds!

…

Inside the mirror.

“Hahahaha…”

The Gu Changqing surrounded by the ever increasing murderous qi let out an ear piercing laughter that belonged to a woman.

The qi around her moved and she now transformed into Changxi.

“Gu Changqing!!”

“I said before that I wanted to make your life a living hell, to make you live a life of loneliness, to make sure you never get the ones you love, to be misunderstood by all, to be betrayed and abandoned by your loved ones…”

“Gu Changqing.”

“I and Changxi have become one and we are now one body. If you slay me, that’s equal to slaying her… HAHAHA! If you kill me, you kill her!”

“HAHAHA! Can you bear to do that?”

“You can’t do anything to me!!!”
