The Ancient Gods' Whisper-Chapter 825 - 394: Taihua’s Intimidation!

The backyard of this asylum faces the bay, and tonight’s sea tide is unusually fierce. The roar of the waves crashing against the reefs resembles thunder, and nine massive bronze pillars stand on the sea, each lighting up with a scorching red glow.

The elderly man in the wheelchair chanted ancient spells, his long white hair fluttering in the wind. His aged body was completely withered, like a ghost returning from Hell, seemingly ready to dissolve at any moment into the thunderous tide. He cut open his wrist, and molten blood spurted out, staining the dark sea red.

He waved his arms and legs, shouting in ancient language, appearing both ridiculous and strange.

Like a madman.

The sea tide seemed to boil, turning crimson, resembling the totem of a Qilin!

Space-time faintly trembled, and the sea appeared to be gathering some massive shadow.

"Truly insane."

Gu Jianlin silently poured himself a glass of whisky, the golden liquid rippling in the sea breeze.

He didn’t drink; he just wanted to distract himself.

Half an hour ago, he watched the elderly man rise from his sickbed, tear off the cables attached to his body, and inject a large amount of Life Potion. In such a brief process, terrifying Ancient God’s Breath was released, even causing the medical staff to mutate on the spot. In just a few minutes, four medical teams were swapped out.

In the end, it was Jiang Chunyang who came forward and subdued him.

"Is this what the cultivation of the You Ying Law leads to in the end?"

He softly said, "There must have been a mistake, right?"

Moon Princess glanced at him silently, frowning slightly.

She had long warned him to speak less to make fewer mistakes.

Especially when facing her so-called grandfather, the oldest Ascender still alive.

Even outranking the President.

"Seems like you know quite a bit."

Jiang Chunyang picked up a bottle and poured a drink, saying faintly, "My brother was once one of the pillars of the Human World, one of the few Ninth-rank Taiyi Gods. Two hundred years ago, he thought he would be invincible after practicing the You Ying Law. When the Ancient God Chaos erupted, he wanted to establish a new order based on the Evolvers."

"Back then, he was formidable, leading the Evolvers he created to start a revolution, even storming into the Central Spirit Core Institute in Magic City, trying to seal the Heavenly Person’s Wedge. Ha, at that time, my junior brother had just died."

He said hoarsely, "Oh, my junior brother was Taiqing."

Gu Jianlin thought to himself, your junior sister must be Taihua, this old guy’s seniority is indeed terrifying.

"Looks like he wasn’t successful."

He commented, "Otherwise, the one sitting in Magic City now should have been you."

Jiang Chunyang nodded, recalling the memories from the depths of his mind, revealing a strange smile, "After my brother stormed into the Central Coffin Institute, he went on a rampage until he met my junior sister."

"And then?"

"Then he lay on a sickbed for two hundred years."

"..."

"Taiqing was the most dazzling leader of that era, and Taihua always assisted him from behind the scenes. When she appeared on the front lines, it was as a Commander. She was a Queen who commanded the world, yet she rarely acted personally. None of us expected that the one hiding the deepest in this world was her, the true strongest as well."

Jiang Chunyang lamented, "To marry such an extraordinary woman as Taihua really makes one envious. If it weren’t for Taihua’s existence, order would have collapsed two hundred years ago, and Qing and Chi would have already succeeded."

Gu Jianlin pondered for a moment, raised his eyes, and asked, "So what role did you play back then?"

"Me?"

Jiang Chunyang smiled strangely, "Do I look like an idiot to you?"

Gu Jianlin didn’t expect him to ask such a question and could only shake his head.

"I’m not an idiot, of course I had to run."

Jiang Chunyang lifted his hand and pointed at the frenzied old man on the shore, sneering coldly, "If I hadn’t run, the one dancing like mad over there would damn well be me! That woman is a psycho, humans can’t possibly compete with her. You’d have to be kicked in the head by a donkey to face her head-on. Her opponents are the Ancient Gods, not people like us." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Moon Princess: "..."

Gu Jianlin was speechless; he even thought he made a lot of sense.

Logically, the strongest should have some dignity, and even if they really couldn’t win, they wouldn’t be so candid.

This old guy, however, was quite honest and didn’t feel ashamed at all.

"In any case, after the battle of the Ancient God Chaos, my brother went completely mad."

Jiang Chunyang said, "That’s why he had to open the dimensional gate himself. It’s our VIP passage. Forcibly opening the dimensional gate is a deadly task, requiring a price far beyond your imagination. After he dies, the Holy Corpse refined from him will allow you to master Primordial Return."

Speaking of his brother, the tone was like that of a used-up tool.

Devoid of any emotion.

"This is also part of our deal."

His eyes were cold, but gleamed with a hint of greed, "After all, you did save my life."

This was something Gu Jianlin had planned long ago. Jiang Family’s old ghost’s personality profile had been gradually perfected by him. The most obvious trait was being afraid of death, willing to tolerate many things if he could stay alive.

"This is the formula for the second treatment."

He took a folded note from his pocket and slid it across the table, calmly saying, "The Alchemy Matrix has been modified; your Alchemist will need some time to study it. The Alchemist must be Holy Land Level or higher, otherwise, their mind cannot resist the erosion brought by the Ghostly Glowing Lotus."
