Chapter 177 If I were the Emperor of Heaven in the future, the chaos on Feixian Island, and complete betrayal

For the first time in his life, Huangfu Hao felt a chill all over his body. In front of Jiang Lan, he seemed transparent and had no secrets at all.

"Uncle Huangfu, please lead the way."

Jiang Lan spoke up. He knew that Huangfu Hao had never given up. Although Li Ran's appearance made him give up resistance and restrain all his murderous intent, he was definitely unwilling to give up.

But for now, he still needs Huangfu Hao to lead the way for him.

His only chance of turning things around lies deep in the Demonic Abyss, where his original body is.

Huangfu Hao was silent for a moment, and finally said as if he accepted his fate, "I have never figured out how you know all this? Could it be that you can really predict everything in the future?"

Jiang Lan smiled but did not respond.

Huangfu Hao sighed and said, "I have always believed that great fortune is invisible, but in you, I really see an invincible momentum. This momentum is so great, rolling like a tide, and it is unstoppable. Anyone who is your enemy will be crushed and swallowed by the torrent."

"Uncle Huangfu, you are too kind. I only know how to use some tricks that are not worthy of being shown on the stage." Jiang Lan still had a smile on his face.

"No, it's different..."

Huangfu Hao stared at him intently, his face, which was as unpredictable as mist, showed a sense of certainty, and said, "It is rumored that after the catastrophe of the heavens comes, many worlds will collapse, the balance will be lost, and the pure and turbid will mix. After experiencing various catastrophes of heaven and earth, the old order will completely collapse, and then a new order will be born. In the future, there will be a Heavenly Emperor who will rule over the heavens and establish a new order..."

"No one knows who the future Heavenly Emperor will be, nor how he was born, but once he appears, he will be invincible. Anyone who opposes him will collapse and become a stepping stone under his feet."

"Before I met you, I always thought it was just a rumor, but now I finally believe it..."

Jiang Lan's eyes showed surprise, he really didn't expect that Huangfu Hao knew all these secrets. However, it was too early to assert that the future Emperor of Heaven would appear when the protagonists of heaven and earth have not yet been chosen.

"Uncle Huangfu, do you think I will be the future Emperor of Heaven?" he asked.

Huangfu Hao said confidently, "I don't know, but you have an amazing invincible aura. Maybe you can't see it yourself, but Master must know it."

Jiang Lan was a little surprised. He actually hadn't thought much about these things, but the future was no longer the future he knew.

It’s too far away to think about these things now.

"The Emperor of Heaven was never born."

"But with what you said, uncle, if I become the Emperor of Heaven in the future, you should have a share of the credit today." Jiang Lan said with a smile.

Huangfu Hao suddenly fell silent, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

"Let me show you the way."

After a moment, he led the way. With the divine rope in place, he could not break free, let alone make any other moves.

Jiang Lan was also relieved.

He knew a lot of the plot, but he didn't know the locations of the two teleportation arrays on Feixian Island, and there was no mention of them in the original plot.

Not long after Jiang Lan and Huangfu Hao left Cumulus Ridge, heavy rain began to fall. The miasma became more severe in the evaporating mist, and the entire primitive ancient forest suddenly became blurred and hazy.

Amid the roaring torrential rain, Jiang Ruxian, dressed in white, stood quietly on an ancient tree. There seemed to be an invisible barrier around her, and any rain, fog or water vapor could hardly get on her.

She looked into the distance, as if watching Jiang Lan's figure gradually disappear, and finally she withdrew her gaze.

"It seems that I was totally overthinking it."

She shook her head gently, and her figure flashed and disappeared on the spot. She thought Jiang Lan came here at the risk of his life, but she never thought that he even shook Li Ran, a saint, over. Naturally, she didn't need to worry about anything.

She originally planned to see Jiang Lan again before leaving, but now it seems that it is no longer necessary.

According to legend, there is a heart-searching flower growing beside the Dream Lake. The flower has nine petals, each of which is crystal clear, like a mirror, reflecting a person's true heart.

She didn't know where Meng Ze was, nor did she know whether the rumor was true or not, but this might be the only way to make Jiang Lan believe her.

Otherwise, just as Jiang Lan said, she was just making up for the so-called guilt, so how could she be qualified to let him forgive her? In a town hundreds of miles outside Jiyun Mountain, Ao Yin and Kong Xuan had already joined Xiang Xiao, Jin Ming and others.

"Where's the young master?"

Seeing that only two people came out safely, a priest from the Xiangguo Mansion frowned and asked, looking towards the Jiyun Ridge where dark clouds were rolling, unable to hide his worry.

Xiangxiao, Jinming and others also looked worried. They thought Jiang Lan had let Ao Yin and Kong Xuan fend for themselves and no longer cared about them.

But who would have thought that they would receive instructions today to come here to pick up two people, but now they only saw two women and no sign of Jiang Lan at all.

"He's covering our back..."

Kong Xuan's face was a little pale.

Ao Yin remained silent, just staring at the distant Cumulus Ridge with his hands clenched.

Xiangxiao and the others were all shocked. They thought Jiang Lan had some foolproof plan, but who knew that he would actually stay behind the two women and let them escape safely first.

Wasn't he in crisis himself?

Regardless of their previous thoughts on Jiang Lan, they all fell silent now, with complicated feelings arose in their hearts.

"He saved Kong Xuan and I's lives. If he can get away safely, what's wrong with sincerely serving him as our master from now on?"

Ao Yin, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, his voice a little hoarse, but his light golden pupils were full of determination and resoluteness.

Kong Xuan also whispered, "I'm the same as you."

Xiangxiao, Jinming, Yuankong and others were extremely surprised, especially Ao Yin's words, which made them a little unbelievable. She was so arrogant and conceited, but one day she would say such a thing.

"The most urgent thing is to gather people and charge into Jiyun Ridge. We will cooperate from inside and outside to catch the barbarians off guard..."

"No, the Master has told us not to move and just pick up the two girls."

"There may be chaos on Feixian Island next. Young Master asked us to retain our strength and deal with this chaos on behalf of the Great Xia Dynasty, and protect as many innocent and defenseless people as possible."

During the subsequent discussion, several retainers of the Prime Minister's Mansion looked at each other, feeling somewhat helpless. However, since Jiang Lan had already given the order, they did not dare to disobey.

But if Jiang Lan died here, they would also be to blame. Who could bear the wrath of the Prime Minister's Mansion afterwards?

…

As expected, Feixian Island was in complete chaos.

As strange visions continued to emerge in the Demonic Abyss, boundless black light covered the sky and the sun, overwhelming everything. All kinds of horrible scenes continued to appear, and everyone fell into panic, scrambling to escape.

In the cities near the port docks, a large number of monks emerged. In the chaos, there was no order, and even the three major guardian families were unable to take care of themselves.

"Something big happened in the Demon Abyss. Countless monsters rushed out. There were also some commander-level monsters comparable to the seventh level of human cultivation. They were very intelligent and led many monsters to rush in all directions like a tide. Several large cities on the border were lost..."

"Aren't there three guardian families guarding there? Where are they at this time?"

There were shouts from people, howls from animals, cries and wails, the scene was chaotic, and in some places there were even fights and quarrels.

Feixian Island has been peaceful for nearly ten thousand years. Because of the three guardian families hanging high above their heads, the island has always been in good order and there have been almost no large-scale conflicts.

Although monsters occasionally appear in the Demon Abyss, they have never appeared in such an endless stream like today.

This was simply a sudden disaster.

The three guardian families, on which countless people placed their hopes, were now unable to take care of themselves.

Witnessed by countless people, a big problem arose in the battle between Helian Wen and Tan Tai Qing. The two were evenly matched at the beginning, but as time went on, Helian Wen gradually fell into a disadvantage.

Just when everyone thought the situation was about to be settled, something no one expected happened.

A powerful force suddenly emerged from Helian Wen's body that was so terrifying that it could instantly tear the ancient battlefield into pieces. Under that force, Tan Tai Qing instantly flew flying and coughed up blood.

Even Gongsun Shuoqiu, a senior figure of the Gongsun family who was responsible for maintaining order, could not suppress the powerful force and was directly blown away.

The scene suddenly became chaotic, and countless people were horrified.

Helian Wen was filled with demonic energy. He stood in the middle of the field with his hair flying in the air, as deep as an abyss and as demonic as a devil.

Endless power like the vast ocean emanated from him, and there was an overwhelming sense of oppression. Under that aura, everyone felt as small as ants.

This sudden scene caused the situation to get out of control in an instant. No one cared about the life and death of this duel at this time. They all fled for their lives, and the whole city was in chaos.

Helian Wen seemed to be possessed by a demon, with a monstrous demonic aura. Whenever he saw someone killing someone, he would open his mouth wide and a surge of life energy would rush into the sky and be swallowed into his stomach.

The most powerful person in the field, Gongsun Shuoqiu, a veteran of the Gongsun family, was grabbed by the neck and strangled to death on the spot. The brutality was so outrageous that it was abhorrent to both humans and gods.

Helian Wen seemed to be possessed by a demon, and his cultivation strength skyrocketed to an incredible level. His body was as tall as a thousand feet, with three heads and six arms, and he was brimming with demonic energy, which was extremely terrifying.

In less than half an hour, the largest city on Feixian Island was turned into a dead city.

Wherever he passed, it was like hell had descended upon us, with mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

And those monsters that rushed out of the Demon Abyss seemed to be inspired. They cheered and rushed towards where Helian Wen was, as if they wanted to pay homage to their demon god.

No one expected that such a situation would occur, and the Helian family instantly became the target of public criticism.

The Gongsun family and the Tantai family also immediately dispatched strong men to surround and intercept the culprit Helian Wen in order to eliminate him.

But at this time, Helian Wen's strength was so terrifying that even the powerful people in the eighth realm of Jieqiao Realm were no match for him. His face, arms, and arms were all covered with dense magic patterns.

The rolling black light in the Demonic Abyss cut through the sky, gathered towards where he was, and tried to flow into his body.

Deep within his body, there seemed to be some powerful will that wanted to revive, merge with him, and come into the world together.

Even if the Helian family tried their best to clarify and explain at this time, it would be of no use.

Maybe it was because Helian Wen still had some clarity of mind, but he did not injure anyone from the Helian family. Instead, he went straight to the clan territory of the Tantai family and wanted to attack it.

This action undoubtedly angered the Tan Tai family. Three extremely powerful auras rushed out from the depths of the small world. The auras swept across, and it seemed that they were going to shake the stars in the sky to fall.

The three ancestors of the Tantai family showed up, their auras were vague and ethereal, they were not people of this era, their clothes were all old, they were very powerful, far beyond the ordinary eighth realm powerhouses, as soon as they showed up, they suppressed the attacking Helian Wen.

But this situation did not last long. From the depths of the Demonic Abyss, there seemed to be a huge wave, and an endless sound was heard.

The blurry figure that had appeared briefly in the sky before, shrouded in endless demonic energy, dragged the chains and made some kind of angry sound. A force like a tsunami suddenly erupted from Helian Wen's body, blowing the three ancestors of the Tan Tai family away.

Subsequently, a fierce battle broke out, and the surrounding mountains and lakes were razed to the ground in an instant.

That kind of fluctuation was like stars exploding one after another, releasing endless light and energy, so bright that people couldn't even open their eyes.

If the Helian family did not have the protection of the small world, the vibrations of the battle alone would be enough to shatter all the buildings and turn them into ruins.

Even though they were separated by a long distance, all cultivators and living beings could feel that devastating aura.

As for the Gongsun family, they were extremely angry about the death of one of their veteran figures and were determined to seek justice.

Afterwards, a figure of the ancestor level also showed up, but he was just one, and he led many clansmen and headed straight for the Helian family.

The ancestor of the Gongsun family was named Gongsun Long. He was skinny but vigorous, with bulging temples and eyes as bright as little suns.

The deceased Gongsun Shuoqiu was his descendant.

However, when he brought a group of clansmen to seek justice, he hit a wall and was unable to enter the Helian family's small world.

At this time, the Helian family seemed to have retreated into a turtle shell, and everything in the outside world seemed to have nothing to do with them.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Several old ancestors showed up and discussed the matter in the meeting hall. Everyone had a heavy look on their faces, and no matter how Gongsun Long shouted in anger from the outside world, there was no response.

It was beyond their expectations that Helian Wen had the coordinates of the Demon's mark on his body and had become a vessel for his arrival.

Helian Xiang and Helian Changkong, one is Helian Wen’s grandfather and the other is his father, so they are even more to blame.

But things have come to this point, and it would be useless even if the Helian family punished the two again, not to mention that one of them is the current head of the family.

The atmosphere within the Helian family was solemn, and all members of the family were trying to figure out how to resolve the matter.

Everyone in the outside world believed that the Helian family had cooperated with the demons, betrayed their ancestral teachings, and became the target of public criticism. Now that the demonic disaster was coming, it was an unstoppable trend. In three years at most, Feixian Island would be reduced to a demonic domain.

"Things have come to this point. We no longer have any choice..."

"Rather, it's like this is forcing us. If we have the help of the demon god, it won't be a problem to break through the small world of the Tan Tai family. By then, with their accumulated resources, it will be enough for us to migrate away from Feixian Island..."

"The troubled times are coming. If we stick to the old ways and never change, we will only decline. We have been guarding the Demon Abyss and Feixian Island for so many years. We have already done our best."

"We don't owe the people from Feixian Island anything."

In the hall, many elders of the Helian family expressed their opinions one after another, and finally the decision was made after several ancestors nodded in agreement.

The reason why the Sage Family is called the Sage Family is that its decisiveness is incomparable to that of ordinary forces. At this critical juncture, almost most of the family members have come to their senses and are ready to burn their boats.

Everyone has fanatical persistence on their face; this is the cohesive force of the family.

The Helian family also has three ancestors, who appear to preside over the overall situation, and the other branches of the family have no say.

"Grandfather, the Gongsun family probably won't let this go. That old man Gongsun Long has been shouting outside..."

"By then, I'm afraid the Gongsun family will stand on the side of the Tantai family."

Several elders spoke in unison, expressing their concerns.

"Gongsun He passed away thousands of years ago, and his mark has disappeared between heaven and earth. The Gongsun family thought it was well hidden, but in fact, we already know about this."

"Now, there are only Gongsun Long and Gongsun Ziwei left in the Gongsun family. In our eyes, Gongsun Ziwei is just a junior. She accidentally obtained the core inheritance of the Ziwei Sect and was halfway to becoming a supreme power. She is not a big deal at all."

"This Gongsun Long is quite courageous. He dares to come alone and shout outside our clan's territory. Let him understand what the rules are."

An old ancestor of the Helian family with a long beard, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened his eyes. He had a high nose bridge and thin lips, giving people a feeling of indifference and harshness, as if nothing in the world was worth his care.

His gaze contained a terrifying sharpness that would hurt anyone who looked into his eyes.

Only after going through seven heavenly tribulations, which is the Seven Steps of the Bridge of Tribulation, can one be qualified to be called the Supreme Power.

For a sage family, only such a person is qualified to be an ancestor of the foundation level.

For example, the elders in the Elders' Pavilion today are all ordinary powerful beings who have just survived one or two heavenly tribulations and are one or two steps into the Tribulation Bridge Realm.

"Is the ancestor going to take action against Gongsun Long?"

All the members of the Helian family were terrified. This seemed like they were going to fight to the death with the Gongsun family.

But on the other hand, with the death of Gongsun Long, the Gongsun family lost another ancestor, and Gongsun Ziwei was much younger in generation, and her strength was not even a little bit inferior to that of the ancestors.

As one grows stronger while the other declines, without a person of background in charge, the Gongsun family is much easier to deal with than the Tantai family.

The Tan Tai family is restrained by the power of the demon god and cannot intervene. Now the foundation accumulated by the Elders' Pavilion, including the ancestral artifacts that the three ancestors had worked together to refine, will not be in the pocket of the He Lian family by then?

Thinking of this, many tribesmen showed excitement in their eyes.

The other two ancestors of the Helian family also nodded and said, "Good."

The few of them quickly finalized the plan, and immediately gave orders to open the small world and let the people from the Gongsun family in.

At the same time, the old ancestor who had just spoken disappeared in the hall in a flash. In order to ensure a fatal blow, he planned to use the power of the small world. If Gongsun Long was not killed in one blow, he would use the clan weapon.

“Ancestor…”

"The Helian family hasn't responded for a long time. I'm afraid there really is a problem. Why don't we leave?"

The entire Feixian Island was in chaos, with fighting and wailing everywhere.

In front of the small world of Helian World, there is still a quiet and peaceful scene, undisturbed by anything. The scenery is beautiful, the mountains, rivers and lakes are magnificent, and when the breeze blows, the lake surface ripples, it is truly a beautiful land.

Gongsun Long stood in the air with a solemn expression, followed by many members of the Gongsun family. But at this time they were all a little worried. It was basically a foregone conclusion that the Helian family had evil ambitions, betrayed their ancestral teachings, and colluded with the demons.

Asking them to give an explanation now, isn't this going deep into the tiger's den? In the territory of the Helian family, even with the ancestor present, they still felt very uneasy. This matter was extremely dangerous.

"It's true that the Helian family has evil ambitions, but I've always felt that they are unlikely to collude with the demons."

"I'm worried that there might still be problems with this matter. There is an invisible hand manipulating all of this, so I had no choice but to take the risk and come here..."

"If the Helian family really has such an idea..."

When Gongsun Long reached this point, his face became heavy and he didn't know what to say next.

If at this time, the three guardian families put aside their past grudges and misunderstandings and worked together to deal with the situation, they could prevent the disaster from expanding and affecting more innocent people, and stop the losses.

If the Helian family is really as rumored...

He sighed inwardly.

At this time, outside the Helian family's small world, there was a sudden flicker of light, like ripples, and at the same time a voice was heard, saying, "Gongsun Long, you came here in person. I hope you can forgive me for my negligence just now. The clan is discussing how to deal with this matter. The situation is urgent, so we have no choice but to do this."

"please……"

Upon hearing this, Gongsun Long recognized him as an ancestor of the Helian family, named Helian Rujian, who was once a renowned and peerless genius.

He breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from his attitude, there should still be room for easing the situation.

The ripples of the small world before him spread, and a silver portal emerged. Gongsun Long and his clansmen were about to move forward, when suddenly a bad feeling came to his heart.

His expression changed, he was filled with rage, and before he could react, he rolled up his wide robe and swept away all the tribesmen behind him and threw them out.

"Walk."

Gongsun Long roared angrily, his hair and beard stood up, his eyes wide open, like an angry old lion. His originally skinny body suddenly swelled up, and he stood there like a wooden stake, blocking the oncoming torrent of terror.

“Ancestor…”

The members of the Gongsun family were all filled with grief and sorrow, their eyes were bloodshot, and they were thrown far away.

All one could see was a terrifying silver light that was overwhelming and flooding over there. That kind of power was far beyond human imagination. It was like a piece of blue sky falling down, enough to crush everything into powder.

Gongsun Long's skinny figure stood there firmly, blocking all the aftermath. Blood and cracks immediately covered his entire body.

He was covered in blood and staggering, still looking at the figure walking out of his small world in anger.

"Gongsun Long, you are indeed extraordinary. You have endured the blow of the power of the small world, but you have not exploded into a bloody mist."

Helian Rujian's expression was indifferent, with a hint of mockery in it.

Gongsun Long kept coughing up blood, and his body seemed to be about to burst at any time. He said angrily, "You betrayed our ancestors, you betrayed our ancestors..."

"Our ancestors have made countless contributions to the human race, and people in later generations all praised and admired them, but you are associating with the demons..."

"Aren't you ashamed? Are you worthy of your ancestors who shed their last drop of blood for the human race?"

Helian Rujian's expression remained indifferent, and he said, "Only if you survive can you say all this. It was you who forced my Helian family to this point."

After he finished speaking, the sword energy in his hand flowed, and it seemed that an invisible divine sword emerged, with an amazing sharpness, and the void seemed to be cut and became blurred.

Gongsun Long said miserably, "I thought you still had hope and wanted to save the situation, but I was wrong..."

Helian Rujian ignored him and chopped him off with his sword.

But at this moment, a sigh was heard from the void, and a bright white hand appeared. There seemed to be a big star floating in the palm of its hand, and endless purple light surged and pressed down, blocking Helian Rujian.

"Gongsun Ziwei..." Helian Rujian's face darkened.

"The Helian family is truly beyond saving."

The owner of the white hand did not show up, but just sighed, and then waved his hand to take Gongsun Long and the rest of the tribesmen away.

Looking at this scene, Helian Rujian's face was very gloomy.

He didn't want to know that Gongsun Ziwei's strength was no longer what it used to be. The attack just now was actually somewhat unfathomable and traceless.
