51: The past of Jiang Lingxue, the female protagonist who eavesdrops on people's thoughts!

"Ah?"

Jiang Lingxue's heart skipped a beat, and a faint, almost imperceptible blush flashed across her cheeks, which were as crystalline and white as early snow.

"Heard my inner voice again?"

Seeing Jiang Lingxue's reaction, Luo Jinghong immediately guessed the truth.

She didn't beat around the bush and nodded directly, saying, "Exactly, just like the inner voice you heard, I want to take Qingchen as my disciple. Naturally, I have to solve the problem of wealth, companions, techniques, and land for him.

I have the wealth, techniques, and land. As for a Dao Companion, I think you're quite good."

"Sister Luo, don't talk nonsense and don't think nonsense."

The blush on Jiang Lingxue's exquisite face deepened, like the morning glow reflecting on early snow.

She looked up at the figure on the Heavenly Punishment Stage looking down on all living beings, and a ripple couldn't help but form in her heart.

Yes, she admitted she had feelings for Gu Qingchen; after all, who could blame her when he was so special?

Since childhood, Jiang Lingxue had the ability to hear the inner voices of others.

At first, she considered this ability a blessing, but later she realized it was actually a trial, a tribulation.

The human heart is complex, hiding countless darkness and filth.

Whenever she was in a crowd, overwhelming clamor would ring in her ears, leaving her with no peace.

The various thoughts within also allowed her to witness the diversity of human nature.

Because of this, she had liked being alone since childhood and was even somewhat world-weary.

In the entire Holy Land, her only friend was Luo Jinghong, who was always indifferent and had few desires.

But one day, Gu Qingchen appeared.

It was said that Sister Luo had brought him back to the Holy Land. Curious, she paid him a little more attention, only to discover that when she was near him, she felt a tranquility she had never experienced before!

Her ability to hear others' inner voices actually failed when it came to Gu Qingchen!

Encountering this situation for the first time, her heart was overflowing with surprise, curiosity, and joy!

She could still clearly remember how she felt at that moment.

From then on, she began to deliberately create opportunities to meet Gu Qingchen. She even secretly lent a hand when Gu Qingchen joined the Sacred Lord's tutelage and became the Sacred Lord's Personal Disciple.

After all, Gu Qingchen's talent and strength were indeed extraordinary, and he was definitely qualified to be the Sacred Lord's Personal Disciple. However, sometimes strength isn't enough; one also needs Opportunity.

Back then, Gu Qingchen had made a name for himself during the Outer Sect Disciple promotion trial, coming into the view of the Holy Land's higher-ups.

And the Sacred Lord, who usually never went to watch, just happened to go to watch that year's Outer Sect Disciple promotion trial. He immediately took a liking to the stunningly performing Gu Qingchen, and after a period of observation, officially took him as a Personal Disciple.

At the time, even Gu Qingchen himself felt it was a bit of a coincidence.

But in reality, how could there be so many coincidences?

...

On the Heavenly Punishment Stage.

Gu Qingchen also felt Jiang Lingxue's gaze.

He smiled and nodded to this Senior Sister, who seemed a bit special to him, then looked back at the members of the Ye Family.

"Is it possible that the younger generation of the Ye Family has no one left?"

After waiting for a moment, Gu Qingchen shook his head in boredom. "Since that's the case, let's end it here for today. Remember, you only have five years.

Five years later, I will let you know what true... Dao Fall is."

With those words, he prepared to leave the Heavenly Punishment Stage.

However, in the next moment, a streak of green light pierced through the sky and arrived on the Heavenly Punishment Stage in an instant.

He wore a green robe, had green hair, and a mysterious mark on his forehead.

"Ye Wujiu of the Ye Family."

"Hmm?"

Feeling the powerful aura emanating from Ye Wujiu, a trace of solemnity flashed across Gu Qingchen's face for the first time.

Using his Reincarnation Heavenly Eye, he easily saw through the strength of this Ye Family Prodigy, Ye Wujiu.

"Dao-Peeking Great Perfection under a hundred years old; the Ye Family has finally sent out a decent figure."

After stepping into the Three Dao Realm, a cultivator truly enters the ranks of the strong.

This Realm begins to touch the power of the Heavenly Dao Laws. From then on, every word and action can carry the might of the Heavenly Dao Laws, possessing the power to burn the heavens, boil the seas, and seize the stars and moon!

A powerhouse of the Three Dao Realm going all out is enough to shatter an ancient life-bearing planet if there is no Grand Formation or Restriction protecting it!

Although the Dao-Peeking Realm is only the entry level of the Three Dao Realm, its strength is many times greater than that of the Three Profound Realm.

Not to mention, the Ye Wujiu before him had already reached Dao-Peeking Great Perfection, only a hair's breadth away from taking a further step into the Dao-Refining Realm!

"Gu Qingchen, you are quite good."

Perhaps thinking he had the victory secured, Ye Wujiu did not strike immediately.

"Not only did you cripple Ye Wushuang, but you also killed the other nine trash. This way, the entire Ye Family's resources will be concentrated on me, allowing them to exert their maximum value."

Ye Wujiu's eyes flowed with molten red-gold light, and seven divine lights emerged behind him, turning into seven brilliant suns.

"To thank you, I've decided to give you a swift death."

As he spoke, the seven brilliant suns behind him suddenly began to rotate, expanding rapidly, and finally turned into seven Dao Domains.

This was the incomplete version of the Nine Heavens Dao Domain!

As long as Ye Wujiu continued to refine two more sources of heaven and the Nine Heavens Mysterious Source Body reached Perfection, the Nine Heavens Dao Domain would then show its full glory!

It would be far more terrifying than it is now!

Under the suppression of this Dao Domain, even Gu Qingchen's Domain was suppressed.

Even his strength had dropped by thirty to forty percent, as if he were fighting against the entire world.

"Truly worthy of being at the Dao-Peeking Great Perfection!"

Gu Qingchen felt a massive pressure coming from Ye Wujiu.

The gap in their cultivation was too large. With his current strength, he had almost no chance of winning against Ye Wujiu, no matter how Heaven-Defying his Domain was.

"In that case, let's Breakthrough."

Gu Qingchen fully activated his Domain, making it barely resist the majesty of the Nine Heavens Dao Domain, and then swallowed a vast amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

At the same time, within his Spirit Treasure, several complete Spiritual Veins rose directly, pouring into Gu Qingchen's Domain like Dragons.

This scene immediately startled many people.

"Burning so many Spiritual Veins, what is he trying to do?"

"Does he want to perform some forbidden technique?"

"But why does it look more like he's about to Breakthrough to me..."

"Yes, yes, I have the same thought. Could we be lucky enough to witness the rare and wondrous sight of a Breakthrough during battle today?"

...

Almost everyone was a bit confused, speculating one after another. Only Huang Liner, who had personally experienced this scene, remained unmoved.

Isn't it just a Breakthrough during battle?

What's there to be so surprised about? Not long ago, she had been severely taught a lesson by such a being.

As for Jiang Yourong, she had seen this Opportunity on the panel long ago and remained calm from beginning to end.

"This Breakthrough of the Young Master's is not just that simple."

...
