"Gu Liyan, do you understand now? We are all on the same side. How could those ants possibly compare to us!"
Looking at the somewhat crazed Bu Yunzhi, Gu Liyan said nothing, but instead waved his hand to remove the ice lock on his body.
Freed from his predicament, Bu Yunzhi stretched his limbs and looked at Gu Liyan's expressionless face, then sneered arrogantly:
“Gu Liyan, among all of you, you are the only smart one. You know that we have no need to fight. Cooperating with us is your best choice.”
Gu Liyan glanced at Bu Yunzhi indifferently without speaking. Seeing that Gu Liyan did not refute him, Bu Yunzhi became even more arrogant, displaying a smug and petty attitude.
"Don't worry, the future of the Heavenly Palace depends on the development of the two of us. My father will definitely not treat you unfairly, and he has even reserved that position, second only to the emperor, for you alone."
Gu Liyan remained expressionless, but his gaze grew increasingly cold, a hint of curiosity in his eyes: "Bu Yunzhi's father? Could he be someone of great importance?"
Just then, the group of chosen ones who had been vying for position arrived in front of him.
Everyone stopped in their tracks when they saw Gu Liyan blocking their way.
After all, as pioneers and guides, they all deserve some respect. The chosen one at the head was quite amiable, speaking respectfully and politely:
"Holy Son, thank you for your assistance. Now that you have reached the summit, please do us a favor and allow us to go up as well?"
Gu Liyan glanced at the crowd indifferently, and spoke to them without any expression:
"You're too late. There's only one spot left in the election, and I've already taken it. You can go back the way you came."
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, one of the chosen ones in the crowd roared angrily, "You're lying! There's more than one spot in each election. I think you're deliberately blocking us and not wanting us to have the same qualifications as you!"
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement:
"That's right!"
"Get out of the way!"
Gu Liyan, his face cold, swept his gaze over everyone and spoke calmly:
"If humanity becomes too greedy, it may very well end up sending itself to hell. If you don't want to die, I advise you to go back!"
"Enough talk, take him down and charge!"
"That's right! Let's kill him together!"
With bloodshot eyes, the crowd drew their weapons and charged forward.
Seeing the crowd rushing towards him, Bu Yunzhi smiled wickedly and then stepped aside.
He wouldn't get involved in such matters, and of course, he would never help Gu Liyan.
For him, it would be quite nice if Gu Liyan could die here!
Gu Liyan looked at the frenzied crowd and narrowed his eyes slightly. "So noisy..."
As they raised their hands, the wind rose, frost descended, and snow fell for thousands of miles. The group of people rushing ahead instantly regained their senses and hurriedly stopped.
When they looked at Gu Liyan again, the anger in their eyes had faded, replaced by fear.
"I'll say it one last time, go back!" Gu Liyan snapped. "That world is not something you can touch!"
Hearing Gu Liyan's words, a sense of fear crept into everyone's hearts. Some of the chosen ones at the back began to turn and leave. To them, Gu Liyan was an insurmountable iceberg. They could not resist the erosion of that frost. If they tried their best, they would surely be shattered to pieces!
Watching everyone leave one by one, Bu Yunzhi couldn't help but pout, and said with some disappointment:
"These humans do have some sense of crisis! But ants are ants, not worth mentioning at all!"
Before he could finish speaking, Gu Liyan suddenly grabbed his collar.
"Gu, Gu Liyan, what are you doing!" Bu Yunzhi looked at Gu Liyan's cold and expressionless eyes and felt a little panicked.
Gu Liyan looked at Bu Yunzhi, raised her hand and took off his mask. His face looked three parts like Bu Yunrui and seven parts like Cang Mu. It seemed that he had some connection with Cang Mu. However, this seemed to be the best!
Gu Liyan's lips curled up, and he smiled like a living fox!
"Gu Liyan, I... I'm warning you, don't even think about doing anything to me, or my father, Cang Mu, will absolutely not let you off the hook!" Bu Yunzhi's heart pounded when he saw Gu Liyan's expression, and without thinking, he revealed a bit of his identity.
Gu Liyan burst into laughter. "Really? You said your father is Cang Mu, the patriarch of the Demon Clan. I have indeed heard of his illustrious reputation..."
"You know that much! Now let me go!" Bu Yunzhi scolded.
Gu Liyan chuckled. "Heh, you want me to let you go? Do you know that your father almost killed me back then!"
Seeing Gu Liyan's angry eyes, Bu Yunzhi's eyelids twitched.
Gu Liyan squinted at him:
"His son's life is in my hands now. Tell me... shouldn't I avenge that slap I gave him back then!"
"Gu Liyan, how dare you..."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Gu Liyan grabbed his collar and slammed his hand hard against the ice ladder, instantly cracking a large section of it.
"Aaaaah—" Bu Yunzhi's head was bleeding profusely, and the pain drove him to a frenzy. "Gu Liyan, you madman! You dare to lay a hand on me, I will never forgive you!"
Gu Liyan chuckled coldly, his expression as insane as he had said!
"Am I crazy? Yes! I am crazy! But you all forced me to this!" Gu Liyan's eyes were bloodshot. "The peace and freedom I cherish are, in your eyes, just playing with other people's fates! It's you, it's all you who changed the fate of this world!"
After saying that, Gu Liyan dragged Bu Yunzhi, who was lying on the ground, down the ice steps that were not cracked.
