Chapter 302 Exposed in the open
Chapter 302 Exposed in the open
They have been waiting for tens of thousands of years, and their lifespans are about to run out.
Finally waited for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
As the date for opening the Tianmen Gate approaches, the enormous psychological pressure is like a sharp sword hanging over their heads, forcing them to make a foolproof plan.
"Due to the limitations of the Heavenly Dao rules, Xuanling Continent only allows one Great Emperor. Yet, Gu Qingyue has been reluctant to enter this world. This is clearly an attempt to drag us to death. Fan Yuncai, I hope that when you face Gu Qingyue, you will not consider the relationship between master and disciple."
The bearded man glanced coldly at the beautiful female pseudo-emperor.
Fan Yuncai was silent for a moment, then said in a cold voice, "Xing Hongchang, you keep bringing this up again and again. What do you mean by that?"
"Didn't I tell you that I don't want to be stabbed in the back by someone?" Xing Hongchang sneered.
Fan Yuncai was angry, but helpless.
The other female pseudo-emperor snorted, "Xing Hongchang, are you scolding both of us?"
A male pseudo-emperor sitting nearby also glanced over at this time, "That's enough. If you are not satisfied with our involvement in this matter, the three of us brothers and sisters can leave immediately."
"Tang Muling, Ke Tianlang, aren't your reactions a bit too much?"
Xing Hongchang didn't take their attitudes seriously at all. Instead, he raised an eyebrow and said, "Ke Tianlang, Tang Muling, I know you are all Gu Qingyue's disciples, so I said that. I heard that back then, Fan Yuncai was Gu Qingyue's favorite disciple..."
"Whether you trust me or not is your business, but if I don't, can't you say a few more words?"
"All right."
An elderly pseudo-emperor paused with his cane and said, "We've been plotting this for tens of thousands of years. We're all in the same boat. As for whether we can trust them or not, let's end this discussion here."
However, the old pseudo-emperor also set his eyes on Fan Yuncai's face. "Fan Daoist Fellow, it's not that I don't trust you, but since you are Gu Qingyue's favorite female disciple, can you tell us more about... what kind of person she is?"
The words fell.
The other eleven glances were also cast over.
To be honest, although some of them have dealt with Gu Qingyue, they cannot be said to be familiar with her.
What's more, some of the pseudo-emperors present here have never seen Gu Qingyue.
As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you fight without danger.
Fan Yuncai pondered for a moment, then said calmly, "Master is well versed in human nature. No one knows what she's thinking. It's true that I was once her favorite disciple, but this is a matter of great importance. I can't judge her casually, lest I misjudge you all."
Ke Tianlang said in a deep voice, "If the three of us brothers and sisters had second thoughts, we wouldn't have planned this with you for tens of thousands of years. I think you should know this clearly, so please stop making things difficult for my sister."
"But my master is well versed in human nature. What he said is correct. We can only wait for the opportunity. When she reveals a flaw, we will have a chance of survival."
Tang Muling frowned and said, "Master once said that the Kaitianmen Talisman Formation was left for us. Everyone can use it and everyone can leave... I always feel that maybe we are overthinking it. This problem is not that complicated."
"Besides, didn't you see that the Kaitianmen Talisman Formation also teleported many people to an unknown place? Perhaps concealing our identities and following the Kaitianmen Talisman Formation to leave would be a good strategy."
"Tang Muling, I think you are crazy!"
Xing Hongchang said angrily, "Even if the Kaitianmen Talisman Formation is real, who knows where we will be teleported to? Unknown places are dangerous and unpredictable, and life and death are unpredictable. And Gu Qingyue has laid out a long-range plan. Who knows if this is not a trap?"
"If we could leave through the Kaitianmen Talisman Formation, we would have left long ago!"
Another pseudo-emperor said, "He's right. Acting rashly will only put us in a desperate situation. Rather than taking risks, we should wait and see what happens, and make plans when the time is right. After all, the key to survival lies in caution, not blind risk-taking. I think you all know this."
Ke Tianlang said, "I still hold the same opinion. Why don't we just surprise our master and reveal himself, and then strike with lightning speed? Blind action will only alert the enemy and cause harm. Only by lying low and patiently can we find a glimmer of hope."
Although the pseudo-emperors were extremely anxious, they also knew that this was a wise move.
They just need to accumulate strength silently, wait for Gu Qingyue to appear, and wait for the moment of breakthrough to come.
After a long moment, the old pseudo-emperor sighed, "The question is, how will Gu Qingyue show up? What if her cultivation is still at its peak? We won't stand a chance at all."
"I don't think it's possible," Xing Hongchang said coldly. "After sleeping for tens of thousands of years, her cultivation must have declined. Don't forget, we've been stealing the luck of the Xuanling Continent to prolong our lifespans for so long. It doesn't make sense that she hasn't been affected."
"Well, you have a point."
……
"As the leaders behind the three major forces in Xuanling Continent, you brothers and sisters really don't have any clues about Gu Qingyue?"
Fan Yuncai thought for a moment and said, "I received a tip-off... I don't know if it's true or not, but within the Tongtian Tower's sphere of influence, there's a woman who looks a bit like my master."
Everyone's eyes were cast over again.
"That woman seems to be setting up a small Kaitianmen talisman formation."
"Is it arranged separately?"
"Yes."
"really!"
Xing Hongchang slammed the chair handle hard!
He said with ecstasy, "No need to think about it, it must be her!"
The old pseudo-emperor looked at Xing Hongchang in confusion. "Fellow Daoist Xing, you haven't even seen her, so how can you be sure it's her?"
"Besides us, who else do you think can set up a Heaven-Opening Gate Talisman Formation on their own? It must be her!"
Xing Hongchang rubbed his palms together impatiently and chuckled twice, "I've long suspected that Gu Qingyue only has two choices. One, fight us head-on; two, set up another Sky Gate Formation and quietly travel to an unknown place."
"If it's the second point, then it means her cultivation has most likely hit rock bottom!"
Fan Yuncai nodded and said, "Then I will immediately order people to monitor her every move to see if it is true or not..."
"Correct!"
"I have no opinion!"
"Then hurry up!"
The spirits of all the pseudo-emperors were lifted.
Since Gu Qingyue was exposed in the open, they turned the passive situation into the active one.
"No!"
The old pseudo-emperor waved his hand and said, "This is probably a trap, a trap set by Gu Qingyue to lure us out... Let's ignore her for now. As soon as she activates the Kaitianmen Talisman Formation, we will naturally know. Then, it won't be too late for us to go..."
……
After a night.
Suddenly a piece of news spread that tomorrow is the day when the Kaitianmen Talisman Array will be activated.
In an instant, countless quasi-emperor realm powerhouses in Xuanling Continent rushed to the Tongtian Tower forces.
Even if they don't have the chance to enter a new world, they still want to see the shocking scene when the gate to heaven opens.
Moreover, some people have heard that when the Sky Gate opens, a green gas will pour down. In the previous few times, many quasi-emperors who observed it closely have benefited greatly!
