Chapter 66 Chapter 66 "Even if she can't ascend, as long as she...
What Gu Wuchen didn't tell Chen Qian was that on the snowy mountain that day, Song Qingyun simply stopped.
When Shen Xinghe and Gu Wuchen arrived, thunderclouds were still spinning in the sky, and the chaotic energy was ready to burst out, just waiting to pour down and inject into the body of the young Shen Qian.
Shen Xinghe didn't move, and Gu Wuchen flew forward and snatched Shen Qian away.
Until the end, Gu Wuchen didn't know whether Song Qingyun wanted to stop or it was just a temporary pause.
At that time, he was only concerned about Chen Qian's safety and did not pay too much attention to the chaotic energy.
It was not until many years later, at the Xuanqing Sect Immortal Alliance Conference, when Yao Ning was attacked, that he felt the familiar breath again.
"Yao Ning has an endless supply of chaotic energy in her body, just like..." Gu Wuchen glanced at Chen Qian, "Just like she is the source of the chaotic energy."
This was what Gu Wuchen wanted to tell Chen Qian at that time.
But it was just a moment of distraction, a blank in his consciousness, and he forgot it as soon as he turned his head.
And the afternoon before yesterday, I suddenly lost my focus and the memories that had been buried in the depths of my mind suddenly revived.
Everything was so strange that it seemed to be controlled by an invisible hand.
But now, they have no time to get to the bottom of it, because there are more serious problems lying before them -
"Master, what do you think will happen if you are infected by the chaotic energy?" Chen Qian asked.
Gu Wuyan said: "Consciousness collapsed and assimilated into chaos."
Shen Qian's face turned pale.
Gu Wuchen: "If the chaotic energy spreads widely, the spiritual and demonic energies of the world will be assimilated. I am afraid that not only will there be no hope of ascending to the immortal realm in the future, but even cultivating the true self will be a luxury."
Cultivators draw qi into their bodies and transform it into their own cultivation. Spiritual qi and demonic qi are like soil. If the soil is removed, the flowers, plants and trees on it will inevitably wither and die.
The path to ascension is blocked.
Chen Qian was stunned for a moment, then said: "Even if I can't ascend, as long as she is here, I will be satisfied."
Gu Wuchen stared at him for a long while, his eyes full of pity: "You are satisfied, but what about others?"
Shen Qian was stunned.
"If others knew about this, Yao Ning would be the enemy of the whole world."
Chen Qian suddenly looked up, his eyes trembling: "Will they know?"
"Maybe someone won't know right now, but as time goes by, someone will definitely speculate."
"What's more..." Gu Wuchen's face turned cold, "According to Liangxiu, someone might have made plans for the Brahma Temple incident."

"Miss, are you saying that Immortal Venerable Yao Ning has a body of chaos?"
Dozens of sect leaders gathered among the Tianshu Sect’s multi-story buildings and red pavilions.
Meng Yaoguang sat in the first seat at the top, with two rows of yellow pear wood chairs lined up below. Logically speaking, these sect leaders were all her elders. Compared with their old and mature faces, Meng Yaoguang looked too young and fresh.
But she had a calm demeanor. When she looked at everyone with a gentle but unflinching gaze, anyone could feel the noble temperament in her bones.
"I was just guessing," Meng Yaoguang said. "After the battle in Zhongze, she was seriously injured and recuperating in the Tianshu Sect. That's when I sensed something was wrong."
"Just before the incident at Brahma Temple, Master Kongwen suddenly sent me a message, saying that a chaotic aura had suddenly appeared in the temple and that I should secretly reinforce it, but without alerting the enemy."
"I rushed to the outside of the Brahma Temple and heard that there were only two outsiders in the temple, Chen Qian and Yao Ning. I became more and more confused."
Having said this, she paused, and pain appeared between her heroic eyebrows.
After hearing these few words, everyone had their own guesses.
Meng Yaoguang continued, "Before the relic exploded, Master Kongwen had told me that Yao Ning was very likely the Chaos Body. It was just that the master hadn't noticed it before, so he let her go alone to find the Buddha's disciple, who happened to be carrying the relic..."
"I was wondering, even if the Buddhist disciple betrayed his master, how could he be so cruel as to destroy the Brahma Temple? If Yao Ning manipulated him when they were alone together, then there would be an explanation for the destruction of the Brahma Temple!" Someone had already glimpsed the truth based on what Meng Yaoguang revealed.
People echoed one after another: "No wonder Gu Wuchen was so reluctant and refused to hand over Yao Ning. Could it be that Xuanqing Sect was also involved in this matter?"
"Did they get attacked during the initial Immortal Alliance Conference? Could it be that they were just crying wolf, trying to deceive everyone?"
"What is Xuan Qingzong's purpose in doing this?"
"The Brahma Temple was destroyed, and the Xuanqing Sect became the only one in power. No one from the Nine Continents Immortal Sect could compete with it. Isn't that the goal?"
Meng Yaoguang quietly watched the people below talking to each other, and she had already said everything she wanted to say.
Her brows were calm and she listened quietly.
"But, but the chaotic energy is infecting, and the righteous cultivators are transformed into chaos. What good will it do to Xuanqing Sect and A...Yao Ning?"
A clear young voice suddenly rang out.
Wang Mianzhi saw everyone looking at him, so he stood up and said, "She must have a purpose for doing this."
The room suddenly fell silent. Wang Mianzhi turned to the person sitting above him and said calmly, "What do you think, Yaoguang?"
Meng Yaoguang looked at him for a long moment, then lowered his gaze: "I don't know."
Her voice trembled slightly, as if she was trying hard to suppress her emotions: "I would rather Aning is innocent. Master Kongwen was wrong, and I was overthinking it."
This seemed to remind everyone.
"Master Kongwen is highly respected and has profound cultivation. How could he be wrong?"
"The eldest lady and Yao Ning are close friends. If the matter did not involve the entire cultivation world, how could she bear the pain of revealing the truth?"
Wang Mianzhi wanted to retort, but was drowned out by the excited noise. Meng Yaoguang didn't even look at him. He said to the crowd, "Mianzhi was right. If she truly had a Primal Chaos Body, why would she do this?"
Everyone fell silent and looked at Meng Yaoguang.
"Honestly, I can't see clearly either." Meng Yaoguang laughed bitterly. "I only know that if the Chaos Body is allowed to spread the chaotic energy, it won't be long before all the cultivators in the entire cultivation world will be assimilated into chaos, and from then on, they will become part of the Heavenly Dao without any knowledge or consciousness."
The expressions of the people present varied.
Compared with Yao Ning's unknown identity and purpose, Xuan Qingzong's possible conspiracy and the matter related to his own life and death are the most noteworthy.
What is the difference between merging into the chaotic energy, becoming a part of the Heavenly Dao, and losing one's own will and dying?
Meng Yaoguang continued, "I've been friends with Yao Ning, and I've never cared about whether she was rich or poor. But not long ago, she asked me several times to ask for the title of Princess on earth."
People thought of the enthronement ceremony that shocked the whole country.
"She said that when she was in Xuanqing Sect, she was bullied by everyone because of her low status. Even Zixiao Daojun looked down on her and treated her badly. She begged desperately. Seeing her friend suffer, I felt bad too. So I flattered my father and begged for the title of Princess."
Someone thought: "Could it be that she has other intentions?"
Meng Yaoguang said, "You all know that the energy of chaos is not possible without the Heavenly Dao. If she truly is a body of chaos, how could a mere mortal hide such luck that rivals the Heavenly Dao?"
So it needs to be covered up.
There was an uproar in the room.
Wang Mianzhi looked at Meng Yaoguang with complicated eyes and slowly tightened the armrest.
"It turns out she had planned this all along!"
"This is going to force us to death!"
"Zixiao Daojun, Xuanqing Zong, and Gu Wuchen are all in the same group. This is all a chess game..."
"Brahma Temple is a lesson for us!"
The clamor and noise rose like a wave, and everyone present became increasingly excited and started arguing with red faces.
What originally required some explanation was now deduced by everyone.
The Immortal Master Yao Ning, who was admired by everyone not long ago, fell from grace in an instant and became a vicious and despicable person behind the scenes.
The person behind the scenes.
He launched a surprise attack at the Immortal Alliance Conference, massacred the entire group, wiped out the entire Brahma Temple, provoked disputes between the righteous and evil forces, and attempted to infect the world of cultivation with the energy of chaos...
What kind of immortal is this?
Some people were filled with righteous indignation and shouted loudly: "She is going to destroy the world!"
He is clearly the Lord of Destruction.
Amidst the noise and chaos, the leader of the Weishui Sword Sect sat at the last seat, and Miss Liu behind him also had tears in her eyes.
On the fairy boat heading to the Demon Realm that day, Miss Liu was instigated and offended Yao Ning, who slapped her twice.
Later, Yao Ning was conferred the title of princess, and had the support of Tianshu Sect, Beiming Sect, and Lingfeng. Even though Miss Liu felt wronged, she had no choice but to swallow her anger.
Now God has eyes, and that woman’s true colors have finally been revealed!
Miss Liu's heart was filled with emotion, and she wanted to tell everyone present loudly how hypocritical and vicious that woman was, and how she bullied others!
But she was of little influence and no one was willing to listen when she tried to speak several times.
Miss Liu had no choice but to shut up and listen carefully to the conversations of the people around her, trying to find an opportunity to interject.
As she listened, Miss Liu couldn't help but frown.
Yao Ning is a body of chaos? Was she the one who spread the chaotic energy?
This conclusion has too many flaws.
For example, she had many opportunities to do it without anyone noticing, so why did she choose to do it when the Brahma Temple was being wiped out and all the people from the Nine Continents sects were present?
For example, if she asked the Emperor of Humanity to confer a title in order to conceal her good fortune, why didn't she do it in private, but had to invite cultivators from all over the world in public, fearing that no one would know?
There are still many questions...
Even I can see such an obvious loophole at once. Could it be that the sect leaders present were unaware of it?
Miss Liu felt a chill on her back, and her eyes frantically swept across the crowd, accidentally meeting the gaze of the person at the top.
Meng Yaoguang sat upright, his eyebrows and eyes clear, staring at him quietly.
While everyone was arguing, their faces red and necks thick, spit flying, and their hearts pounding, she was so peaceful and calm, as if not disturbed by the chaos around her.
Miss Liu shuddered in her heart and felt inexplicably scared.
She hurriedly looked away, and when she raised her eyes again, all her previous doubts disappeared. Purple light flashed through her eyes, and only one pure thought remained in her mind.
The Lord of Destruction, she wants to kill us all.
*
Wang Mianzhi joined the debate.
There are only two factions in the debate. One faction believes that Yao Ning wants to destroy the world and everyone must stop her.
Another faction believed that Yao Ning wanted to destroy the world and kill all cultivators, and that she must be ground into dust and scattered into ashes, otherwise he would not be able to vent his hatred.
Wang Mianzhi was infected by the anger here and for a moment he lost himself in the matter. He could not help but list Yao Ning's crimes, even tracing back to how she had used shameful means to force Shen Qian to marry her in the first place.
When he got excited, he joined everyone else in calling her a "witch" and began to denounce Xuan Qingzong for shielding her and Gu Wuchen for being confused.
It was not until dusk that the crowd dispersed.
Wang Mianzhi lowered his head, looking somewhat lost, as if he was still immersed in this sudden change.
He walked out of the hall, crossed the corridor, and went down the mountain path to the gate of Tianshu Sect.
A pair of satin shoes embroidered with peonies appeared in his field of vision. Wang Mianzhi raised his head slowly and looked at the person who was blocking his way.
Meng Yaoguang asked, "Why did Mianzhi leave without a word? Didn't he say that we would go together to defeat the Lord of Destruction tomorrow?"
Wang Mianzhi said nothing and clenched the sword in his hand.
Meng Yaoguang's gaze fell on his whitened knuckles and he smiled, "The day is getting dark and the road is long. Mianzhi wouldn't want to bother Xuan Qing Sect again at this time, would he?"
She stood with her hands behind her back, her eyes growing colder and colder, with a condescending arrogance: "Guess, if I don't use weapons, can you survive ten of my attacks?"
