486: Who is the prey and who is the hunter?

He stayed at the Gu Family for two days.

During these two days, Gu Tianxing took meticulous care of Su Changqing and the other two.

He even showed some deference in his words.

Su Changqing and the other two naturally had a very pleasant time.

There were many rare treasures within the Gu Family, and Li Muxi also gained much knowledge.

In these past few days, the most displeased person among everyone was probably only Gu Huanmeng.

She could only watch from afar as Su Changqing and the others flirted, while she could only stand silently in the distance and watch.

For a favored daughter of heaven like her, this was a great irony.

But she had no other choice.

It was because Su Changqing's heart was not on her.

“Gu family head, we have disturbed you enough this time, it is time for us to bid farewell!”

Su Changqing smiled as he said goodbye to Gu Tianxing and the rest of the Gu Family.

“Young Master Su, please be careful on your journey!”

Gu Tianxing smiled slightly, saying with deep meaning.

The two exchanged a smile.

Soon.

Su Changqing left the Gu Family Secret Realm, boarded the Immortal Boat, and soared into the sky.

Originally, he should have returned to Immortal Wind Sect, but because Mu Xiruo had made a request earlier, Su Changqing took the two of them in another direction.

“Young Master Su, I have troubled you.”

Mu Xiruo said with some embarrassment.

Su Changqing smiled slightly, not caring at all.

“It’s fine, it’s just a small matter.”

“It will still take two days to reach the place Miss Mu mentioned, so Miss Mu should go and rest well.”

Mu Xiruo nodded with a smile, her gaze rising, her bright eyes fixed on Su Changqing, filled with admiration.

After a few words of conversation, Mu Xiruo turned and entered the cabin.

Su Changqing stood alone on the deck, looking at her departing back, lost in thought, but then the corners of his mouth curved slightly upwards, forming a smile.

He turned around, his gaze calmly looking at the path ahead.

Time flew by.

Two days passed.

The Immortal Boat sailed into a secluded area.

This was a desolate mountain, devoid of vegetation and any signs of human habitation.

Within several hundred miles around this place, there was almost no human presence, making it a dead and silent land.

Su Changqing, Li Muxi, and Mu Xiruo stood on the deck.

“Miss Mu, is this the place you spoke of?”

Su Changqing asked.

The corners of Mu Xiruo’s mouth curved slightly upwards, forming a smile.

“That’s right.”

Beneath the innocent smile, it seemed to contain endless playfulness.

Su Changqing turned his head, his face calm as he looked at her.

“I wonder what Miss Mu is doing here.”

“Doing what?”

Mu Xiruo sneered, her gaze gradually turning cold.

“Of course, it’s to take your life.”

With that, Mu Xiruo’s figure flickered, instantly disappearing from the Immortal Boat.

The next moment, she appeared directly in front of Su Changqing, standing in mid-air.

She waved her hand.

Rumble!

The surrounding space instantly vibrated violently.

Immediately after, countless Black-Clothed Immortal Reverends appeared, surrounding the Immortal Boat.

Su Changqing roughly scanned them, there were about seven or eight hundred Black-Clothed Immortal Reverends, among them a large number of Immortal Reverent Late Stage, no less than dozens, and there were also six Immortal Venerable Pinnacle.

Such strength, placed in the Immortal Realm, would definitely be a formidable force.

Although perhaps not as powerful as the Gu Family and the Supreme Immortal Court, it was probably second only to these two major forces.

“If I’m not mistaken, you should be the leader of these Black-Clothed Immortal Reverends, right?”

Su Changqing said calmly, surveying the scene before him.

“That’s right!”

Mu Xiruo nodded with a smile.

“These are all my elite subordinates, specially used to ambush you here.”

“It seems your real name isn’t Mu Xiruo either.”

“Hahahaha, you’re not too stupid after all.”

“Let me introduce myself, my name is Mu Ruoxi, one of the Ancient God Agents, and also the Head of this Branch!”

Mu Ruoxi’s face revealed an arrogant expression.

Her sinister smile sent shivers down one’s spine.

“Mu Ruoxi, Ancient God Agent, interesting.”

Su Changqing said playfully.

“Su Changqing, Su Changqing, it seems this is where you will be buried.”

Mu Ruoxi said with a charming smile.

For the past few days, she had stayed by Su Changqing’s side, her purpose being to gain his trust and then lead him to this place.

So many days of planning were all for today.

“It seems you are very confident in killing me.”

Su Changqing spread his hands, saying casually.

Mu Ruoxi’s beautiful legs slowly walked forward, and with a wave of her hand, a blue light curtain descended, covering an area of tens of thousands of miles.

“I know you have a treasure that can traverse space, so I specially used this rune that freezes space within ten thousand miles. I want to see how you escape today!”

Mu Ruoxi was full of confidence.

She had already investigated Su Changqing’s background.

During this time, she had been searching for information about Su Changqing.

Knowing that he possessed a treasure that could traverse space, she specially used this top-tier Chaos-grade rune to seal this space, all to kill Su Changqing with one blow.

Oh?

Su Changqing was somewhat surprised.

He hadn’t expected Mu Ruoxi to be so well-prepared; he had truly underestimated her a little.

However… Su Changqing remained composed, without any panic.

He said with a smile:

“Very good methods.”

“However… you wouldn’t really think that your deliberate approach to me these past few days was flawless, would you?”

Upon hearing this, Mu Ruoxi frowned.

Su Changqing continued with a smile:

“Actually, from the very beginning, when you deliberately arranged that scene of being chased to approach me, I already noticed it. You… were too eager!”

“What Hidden Family, what assessment, even giving away treasures, just to stay by my side for five years, it’s too coincidental. Please, next time you create these accidents, use your brains more.”

Su Changqing’s blatant mockery almost made Mu Ruoxi lose her temper, her face turning ugly.

All of this was her arrangement.

She thought she had everything perfectly under control, but she never expected to be exposed by Su Changqing’s few words, rendering it all meaningless.

He had even been aware of it early on.

How could she tolerate this?

“Furthermore, although you investigated my background, one thing you don’t know is that I also practice the Dao of Deduction.”

“The night I allowed you onto the Immortal Boat, I deduced everything about you.”

“Tsk tsk tsk, your traces were mysteriously erased by a group of disgusting existences. If I’m not mistaken, it should be the so-called Ancient Gods!”

Su Changqing said with a cold laugh.

However, his words completely enraged Mu Ruoxi.

Her face was covered in frost.

She snorted coldly, her eyes becoming even colder.

“So what? You still fell into my trap!”

She was somewhat unwilling to give up, and Su Changqing didn’t care. He stepped forward with a smile, continuing to mock:

“No, no, no!”

“I merely wanted to catch them all in one go. Who is the prey and who is the hunter, that remains to be seen.”

Su Changqing’s arrogant words immediately caused Mu Ruoxi and the Black-Clothed Immortal Reverends to be both shocked and enraged.
