Chapter 1035: It's best to remember
The patriarch of the Pu family had heard two rumors that had once been rampant.
Firstly, although the great enemy of the era was defeated by the combined forces of seven era gods and had to flee in defeat, the result of that earth-shattering battle, which almost no one could witness, was actually a lose-lose situation.
But there is no evidence for this, and no one is likely to admit it, because it would only enhance Gu Heng's prestige.
If you go against seven gods, those gods will definitely win completely, and they must win gracefully and easily; otherwise, it's no different from losing.
Secondly, the "legacy poison" of the great enemy of the era is actually far more outrageous than it appears on the surface!
The followers of the Great Enemy of the Epoch were known as "rebels," and their sheer size was enough for the Great Enemy of the Epoch to single-handedly establish a massive civilization with himself at its head!
But without him as their backbone, the entire rebel group was overthrown in an instant; some died, some fled, and some hid, seemingly suppressed just like that.
However, this is reportedly not the case.
The followers around the Great Enemy of the Epoch are only those on the surface. In fact, he has many allied forces that have always been hidden in various civilizations. No matter how much the Great Enemy of the Epoch wreaks havoc in the heavens, they have never shown themselves. In fact, in order to continue to lie low, they have chosen to be hostile to the Great Enemy of the Epoch. But this is all just a show. No one knows what is going on behind the scenes.
Of course, this second rumor also cannot be verified.
Or rather, no one dares to verify it.
The Great Enemy of the Era does not accept useless people. Those who can flirt with him must be the most outstanding beings in a civilization. If something happens to them, it will harm the most irreplaceable top combat force of a civilization! Unless absolutely necessary, the supreme god of a civilization must never use his power, otherwise all living beings in the civilization may be implicated, and no one can escape.
Think about it now.
The Immortal Path Civilization did have traitors who joined the Great Enemy of the Era, but who dares to say that there weren't any traitors still lurking within it?
Moreover, aside from the gods, who really dares to label them as traitors?
No.
If the gods don't investigate, then no one else has the right to investigate.
But now the patriarch of the Pu family feels that those two rumors he once didn't take seriously might not be so false after all...
……
"Mr. Gu?"
At this moment, another elder of the Pu clan arrived at the immortal island where Gu Heng was temporarily residing.
"What's the matter?"
Gu Heng put his thoughts aside.
"The patriarch invites you to come and see me. I have come to receive you."
Upon hearing this, Gu Heng nodded: "Okay."
It's time to meet that important person who's been so kind to me.
Gu Heng boarded the small immortal boat that Elder Pu had taken out and headed towards his destination. During the journey, Gu Heng looked at the scenery for about half an hour, and then decided to ask the elder what kind of person that ancestor was.
Be prepared.
"Elder, I have never heard of your ancestor. Is there anything I should not mention when I meet him later?"
"……""Um?"
Seeing that he received no response, Gu Heng frowned. He saw that the elder was still standing at the bow of the immortal boat, and the immortal boat was still moving, but he did not say a word, as if he had not noticed his words at all.
What on earth is going on here?
"Regarding that Patriarch Pu, you don't really need to worry about what you need to say."
Suddenly, a clear, cold female voice reached Gu Heng's ears.
He turned his head and saw that a beautiful figure had appeared on the small fairy boat. A young woman whose face looked slightly familiar to him was looking at him with eyes that were deep enough to encompass the starry sea.
"No matter what you say, he will only respond with a smile, or to put it nicely, he is cautious."
The woman's voice was clear and pleasant, with a hint of disdain in her tone. "To put it bluntly, she's suspicious."
"This kind of person isn't worth your time." "Excuse me, who are you?"
Gu Heng was covered in goosebumps just now. It was terrifying to suddenly hear someone speaking in his ear, even if the speaker was a very beautiful woman!
The woman did not answer his question, but instead scanned him from head to toe with a scrutinizing gaze.
"..."
Gu Heng felt a little uneasy under their gaze.
Where did this strange beauty come from?
"Hmm, it seems you're alright." The woman looked away, her words, which sounded like she was talking to herself, left Gu Heng completely baffled.
"Also, my name is Yue."
Gu Heng silently raised an eyebrow: "You have a single name?"
"Is it that strange?" Yue said coldly.
Strange? In Gu Heng's opinion, it was indeed so. After all, he had only encountered three people with single names so far. However, this woman had been talking to herself for a long time, and he couldn't say a word in response.
Who is she?
This is Jade Spirit Sacred Mountain, so this Yue must be a cultivator from Jade Spirit Sacred Mountain, but not from the Pu clan.
As always, Gu Heng had no recollection of her.
"Uh, did you need something?"
"No, I just wanted to see how you were doing."
Yue reached out and gently touched Gu Heng's forehead with her fingertips. In that instant, Gu Heng felt a sudden stinging pain in his head.
He quickly slapped Yue's hand away; heaven knows what this woman had just done to his brain.
If she hadn't seemed hostile, I would have drawn my sword! "Miss, I don't know you. Please don't launch any surprise attacks."
Gu Heng was wary of her, but a guess surfaced in his mind. He didn't know her, but she seemed to know him. There was only one possibility: this woman most likely knew his past self!
His memory is lost, so naturally he can't remember many people he used to know. It seems that she is one of those people that his past self deliberately forgot.
If not, then Gu Heng knew no other explanation.
The other party didn't seem to be an enemy, but perhaps they weren't exactly friendly either; Gu Heng dared not make any rash judgments.
Upon hearing this, Yue's cold expression finally cracked slightly, not out of regret, but out of surprise.
"That's really ruthless; they even excluded me."
"Fine, we can let bygones be bygones, but you'd better remember my name and my face now." It seems she's not happy about losing her memory.
"Wait a minute, I have something to think about..."
My identity has definitely been exposed, but fortunately it was exposed to someone who is not an enemy. Since the other party knows me, I might as well strike while the iron is hot and try to pry some information out of her.
Such opportunities don't come around all the time.
However, Yue had no intention of staying long, and right under Gu Heng's nose, she transformed into a butterfly of light and scattered away.
"Hehe, my ancestor is very approachable. And you are a distinguished guest who saved Miss Yun Yuan. My ancestor wants to express his gratitude in person. Mr. Gu, you don't need to worry."
While Gu Heng was still processing everything that had just happened, the Pu clan elder who was in charge of controlling the small immortal boat suddenly said something like this.
what?
Gu Heng was stunned. How long had it been since he asked that question? And now you're only responding?
You mean reconnecting after a disconnection?
Gu Heng pondered for a moment, then asked, "Did the elder sense anything amiss just now?"
"No, Mr. Gu, why do you say that?" Elder Pu was very puzzled.
"It's alright, I was just spacing out."
It seems that the woman was very careful when she met him. This elder must have been under some kind of spell, so he was completely unaware of everything that happened on the immortal ship.
Only he and Yue would remember this conversation.
This method must have some backing.
But being cautious is completely understandable. After all, he has a bad reputation, and if others find out that they have something to do with him, they will definitely suffer the consequences.
Gu Heng only regretted that he couldn't get more information out of her.
But perhaps we'll meet again in the future.
"By the way, does your Jade Spirit Sacred Mountain have a cultivator named 'Yue'?"
"We have never heard of this name before."
"Oh……"
