246: Chapter 244: Haoyang Tianzong, Haoyang Patriarch

The ruling Sect of this world is called Haoyang Heavenly Sect, towering above all other Sects and Imperial Dynasties in this world.

In this world, as long as they issue an edict, the forces below will immediately respond and obey. Although they do not formally command the world, this world operates according to their will.

Gu Shengge pondered for a moment, then sneered, "Of course I'm going. Mo Jie still dares to harbor illusions, so I will personally go and shatter his illusions!"

As Gu Shengge spoke, he took out a Formation Plate, on which the eight directions of heaven and earth were marked, and a light spot moved rapidly on it.

Jun Mengqing and Pei Yuhan were filled with surprise and astonishment at this sight.

Jun Mengqing asked, somewhat uncertainly, "This isn't the location of Mo Jie's Divine Soul, is it?"

Gu Shengge nodded, "It is him."

Pei Yuhan was full of shock, "Did the Daozi anticipate he would escape so early?"

Gu Shengge nodded, "He endured humiliation and was refined into a Soul Lamp, unwilling to die with dignity, precisely because he wanted to escape! I didn't kill him, but used him. How could I not have a backup plan? He should be heading to the core figures of the Haoyang Realm now. We can just feel heartbroken."

Around Gu Shengge, lightning surged again, coiling around the two like chains, lifting them into the sky. Then he himself moved steadily upwards along the cliff.

Half an hour later, the anti-flight Restriction below gradually weakened. Gu Shengge ascended into the air, the lightning chains still pulling the two, continuing their journey, and plunged into the spatial passage he had torn open in the sky.

The three fell into the spatial passage and finally stabilized. Jun Mengqing and Pei Yuhan kept retching, as if they wanted to vomit everything in their stomachs.

"Daozi, when you pulled us up just now, you weren't steady enough, it was too uncomfortable."

Pei Yuhan propped herself up against the spatial barrier with her sword, her voluptuous body swaying, unable to stand firm.

Gu Shengge quickly supported her, letting her lean against him, which finally steadied her.

Jun Mengqing, who had initially been able to stand, also began to sway, collapsing against Gu Shengge's other side.

"Gu Shengge, my head is so dizzy too! It's so uncomfortable..."

Gu Shengge didn't bother to discern whether they were faking it or not. He stabilized the space and accelerated their travel, and soon after, he brought the two out of the spatial passage. Outside, the sky was clear and the environment was much better than inside the spatial passage.

"Alright, if you two are still uncomfortable, I'll send you to the river below to sober up!"

Pei Yuhan felt much better, though her small face was still a bit pale. Jun Mengqing, on the other hand, had a mischievous smile on her face.

She straightened up and laughed, "Don't! I just wanted to rely on my benefactor for a bit. There's no need for my benefactor to punish me like this, it's too heartless."

Pei Yuhan next to her was full of shock. Was Jun Mengqing really such a person? She hadn't noticed it before.

Jun Mengqing seemed to read Pei Yuhan's thoughts and grinned, "Pei Yuhan, I'll tell you the truth! I'm going to be your Daozi's woman. It's been too tiring pretending to be a proper person these past few days. I'm coming clean, no more pretending!"

Pei Yuhan looked at Gu Shengge in astonishment, who said helplessly, "Don't listen to her nonsense. She is the Saintess of the Jietian Sect, the Young Emperor of Qingqiu. We can't afford to associate with her."

Jun Mengqing gritted her silver teeth, "Benefactor, as long as you say the word, I can give up anything, or... I can even be your pet~"

As she spoke, her body, as if boneless, once again pressed against Gu Shengge.

Gu Shengge paid her no mind, taking out a cloud-patterned compass to check the coordinates on it.

"Over five hundred thousand li from here, that guy sure runs fast!"

Gu Shengge quickly calculated the opponent's coordinates. However, during his calculation, the opponent seemed to have sensed something. Mo Jie's Divine Soul suddenly split into five parts, leaving in different directions.

Gu Shengge was also startled. Was this splitting into five parts to confuse him?

Jun Mengqing and Pei Yuhan looked at Mo Jie's Divine Soul fleeing in five different directions, also bewildered. What should they do now?

Jun Mengqing's strength would allow her to investigate alone, but there were five parts. Even if Jun Mengqing pursued one, there would still be four!

Gu Shengge put away the compass and said coldly, "Forget it, let's go directly to the Haoyang Heavenly Sect. Mo Jie still has the Restriction I left on him. He can't cause any trouble, so there's no need to mind him!"

Gu Shengge led the two through mountains and rivers. In a large city, he found a map of the Haoyang Realm and headed straight for the Haoyang Heavenly Sect.

In the secret area of the back mountain of Haoyang Heavenly Sect, a grey figure suddenly passed through the mountain gate and broke into the secret area of the back mountain.

This was a Cultivator in a black robe, exuding a strong spatial aura, suggesting he had some mastery of the Dao of Space.

"Old Ancestor, Mo Jie's Divine Soul has been brought back."

After he finished speaking, he took out a shovel and began to dig. Before long, a stone coffin appeared before him. He quickly formed hand seals and cast a spell, and a sudden energy hum resonated within.

Moments later, the stone coffin vibrated, and the lid slowly slid open, revealing the figure inside. This was an old man like a mummified corpse. His entire body's skin was shriveled and attached to his bones, without a trace of flesh, but his two eyeballs glowed with blue light.

After he emerged, his gaze fell upon a cluster of soul light in front of him. Seeing the faintly flickering Divine Soul energy, he frowned and said, "Mo Jie's Divine Soul? Just this little bit? Not even one soul and one spirit, what can it do?"

The grey-robed Cultivator quickly said, "Old Ancestor, there were some unexpected incidents on the way. Mo Jie's remnant soul said that a Restriction had been planted in his soul body, so he had people carry his soul light in different directions, to reunite in other places after the Old Ancestor revives."

"To leave the Haoyang Heavenly Sect?" he asked in surprise.

The grey-robed Cultivator nodded, "Given the current situation, leaving the Haoyang Heavenly Sect is the best choice. The Nine Realms Alliance's plan in the Qiongsang Domain has failed, and Gu Shengge has already invaded the Yuan Heavenly Realm. Now, the Haoyang Realm is undoubtedly also doomed. With the Old Ancestor's current state, he is no match. So Mo Jie's intention is to first leave the Haoyang Realm and abandon this realm."

On the shriveled body of the Haoyang Heavenly Sect's Old Ancestor, a faint green life energy flowed.

"I never thought! To be able to force Mo Jie to this extent, to the point where he doesn't even have the courage to face him directly. This Gu Shengge is quite a figure! You shall carry my coffin to meet Mo Jie, and also notify the entire Sect to prepare. For an outsider like him to want my Haoyang Heavenly Sect to submit, that is impossible!"

He lay back in the stone coffin, closed the lid, and fell into slumber.

The grey-robed old man quickly put away Mo Jie's soul light, issued two edicts, and then hoisted the coffin onto his shoulder, quickly leaving the Haoyang Heavenly Sect and disappearing into the endless night.
