Everlasting Immortal Firmament

Book 5: Chapter 207: False Countercharge Instigation

“No!” Zang Yulian called out anxiously.

However, Gu Hai had already taken to the sky. It was too late.

Although Gu Hai was far away, a beam of six multicolored lights rushed over from a distance, causing the expression of everyone over there to change.

“Gu Hai?” Kong Xuan exclaimed, goggling.

The second-ranked of the Rebel Sin Ranking, Gu Hai? This was the person that Long Zhanguo thought the most highly of recently.

“Hah! Gu Hai also abandoned the darkness for the light?” Sima Zongheng showed a trace of mockery on his face.

Long Shenwen narrowed his eyes as he looked at the distant Gu Hai sullenly.

However, Long Shenying frowned, appearing somewhat suspicious. Gu Hai fears death and has betrayed Eminent Father?

The Supreme Singularity looked coldly at Gu Hai. The Supreme Singularity only had second-hand information about Gu Hai, so he did not know much about him.

However, Kong Xuan and the Supreme Genesis knew Gu Hai very well—so well that they tried to kill Gu Hai whenever they met. This was especially so for the Supreme Genesis.

At this moment, the Supreme Wa was pinned to the cross. When she saw Gu Hai flying over, perturbation suddenly appeared in her eyes. “What are you doing here? Are you tired of living?”

Gu Hai looked at the Supreme Wa and showed a faint, bitter smile. “All the people you run into are too sinister and dangerous. Do you always end up in the same situation, no matter your cultivation?”

The Supreme Wa felt startled.

Her reincarnated self, Xiaorou, had also been pinned to a cliff when she first met Gu Hai. Now, she was pinned here, and her survival was not under her control. No matter how she called for help, no one came to help her.

Previously, Gu Hai appeared to save her when death seemed inevitable. Back then, she seemed to see a radiant warrior god.

Gu Hai is here to save me again? However, this is much more dangerous than back then.

“Gu Hai, you dare to show up here?!” The Supreme Genesis glared, exuding an overwhelming, murderous air.

Yehua had died mysteriously because of Gu Hai. Although the Supreme Genesis had finally found a peacock feather, did it truly have nothing to do with Gu Hai?

Yanxuan had also died because of Gu Hai’s son. Gu Hai was a troublemaker, and he was the one that the Supreme Genesis wanted to kill the most.

“Why don’t I dare to come? Heaven already said he would forgive all past sins as long as we turned away from evil and repented. Are Heaven’s words a lower priority than your anger?” Gu Hai questioned coldly.

“Hahahaha! Turning away from evil and repenting now? Isn’t it too late? Long Zhanguo is about to die. What is the point of you changing sides now? Heaven did that to let these people make up for their sins by making contributions. What about you? You are the second-ranked on the Rebel Sin Ranking. Second! You were the one who helped Long Zhanguo find the three paths of reincarnation. Your sins are very great. How are you going to make up for them? Is pleading and begging at the final moment any use?” the Supreme Genesis said coldly.

Everyone in the surroundings coldly eyed Gu Hai.

Heaven’s eyes stared at Gu Hai as well. Clearly, Heaven was already set on Gu Hai’s death like the Supreme Genesis. This is not something you can make up for by begging for mercy. Furthermore, Long Zhanguo is already being refined in the furnace. What use are you now?

“Who says that I cannot contribute and redeem myself? The three paths of reincarnation? Did I find them, or did someone help me find them? Was I lucky, or was it someone’s scheme?” Gu Hai suddenly shouted.

“Huh?” The Six Paths Immortal’s cold grunt came from the sky.

“Reporting to Heaven. Gu Hai turns away from evil and repents today. However, I also have something important to report!” Gu Hai said.

“Something important? What important matter can there be? What is more important at this moment? Long Zhanguo’s death is sufficient!” the Supreme Genesis said coldly.

“Long Shenwen and Sima Zongheng were spies planted by Heaven. They played a critical role at the crucial moment. However, it is not over yet. Long Zhanguo is not dead yet!” Gu Hai said.

“What do you mean?” The Supreme Singularity narrowed his eyes.

“What I’m saying is that while you have spies in the Qian Nation, the Qian Nation also has spies in your Solar Divine Palace. He is here, right by your side,” Gu Hai said gravely.

“How audacious!” the animal spirit kings, Kong Xuan, and the Supreme Genesis roared as they glared.

The Supreme Singularity’s pupils constricted. He immediately took a defensive posture.

Although Gu Hai might just be bluffing, and the Supreme Singularity did not believe Gu Hai, what if? But what if?

Earlier, two spies—Sima Zongheng and Long Shenwen—attacked Long Zhanguo from behind, bringing all of Long Zhanguo’s efforts to naught.

Although Sima Zongheng and Long Shenwen were incredible, they were not even worth mentioning before Long Zhanguo. However, it was these two insignificant characters he did not think much of who ended up foiling him.

What if…what if there really was Long Zhanguo’s spy behind him as well, and that spy attacked him from behind when he was focused, just like what happened to Long Zhanguo?

The Supreme Singularity immediately trembled in fear. As he kept his guard up against everyone, he narrowed his eyes at Gu Hai.

The pupils of the Six Paths Immortal’s ten thousand eyes suddenly constricted.

If Gu Hai was right, it would be extremely dangerous.

“A spy? Who is the spy? Don’t change the topic. You helped Long Zhanguo find three paths of reincarnation, resulting in the great destruction of today. Do you think changing the topic will work?” the Supreme Genesis sneered as he looked at Gu Hai skeptically.

“I said it already: I was just there by chance. There are others behind the scene; they just used me,” Gu Hai said coldly.

“Huh?” Everyone glared.

“I believe that everyone knows about when Long Zhanguo collected the Human Path Secret Realm? The situation then did not require me, right? Long Zhanguo slaughtered the sages, practically forcing people into the Human Path Secret Realm. If I were swapped out, could the other people of the Qian Nation do it? Yes, I did help Long Zhanguo obtain the human path of reincarnation, but did it have to be me?” Gu Hai argued while glaring.

The Supreme Singularity narrowed his eyes. The faces of the surrounding animal spirit kings sank.

“The human path of reincarnation? Hahahaha! Very well, let’s not mention the human path of reincarnation. What about the rest?” the Supreme Genesis said coldly.

“Just wait. Shouldn’t you look into who came in contact with the human path of reincarnation during the Ten Thousand Sages Convention aside from me? Back then, who among the animal spirit kings here were close to the human path secret realm? Who would have colluded with Long Zhanguo and made me a scapegoat?” Gu Hai said.

As Gu Hai exonerated himself, he started accusing others.

“I was right by the side. What’s wrong? Gu Hai, are you trying to accuse me of being Long Zhanguo’s spy?” the Supreme Genesis sneered.

“I did not say that. Supreme Genesis, don’t take a general comment as a personal attack or confess in advance!” Gu Hai said.

“Huh?” A murderous intent flashed in the Supreme Genesis’s eyes.

“Perhaps it was someone else who remained hidden?” Gu Hai smiled coldly.

“Humph!” the Supreme Genesis snorted coldly.

Gu Hai flew closer, moving towards the furnace.

“Alright, next, let’s talk about the Animal Path Secret Realm that Long Zhanguo just collected. Did I take the initiative to find the Animal Path Secret Realm, or did someone send me there?” Gu Hai said with a cold smile.

“Huh?” The Supreme Singularity’s face sank.

The Animal Path Secret Realm had an entrance in Lu Ya City. The Supreme Singularity had only just learned about it.

“Back then, I was a prisoner, restrained. The Supreme Singularity left me in the Supreme Genesis’s hands, right? However, how did I end up at Lu Ya’s entrance to the Animal Path Secret Realm? Did I find it, or did someone intentionally send me over?” Gu Hai stared at the Supreme Genesis.

The Supreme Genesis’s pupils suddenly constricted. “Are you saying I intentionally let you go and sent you to the Animal Path Secret Realm?”

“I did not say it was you. I only find it strange. When I was in Lu Ya’s hands, the Supreme Singularity took me from Lu Ya and handed me to you. Why did you hand me back to Lu Ya behind the Supreme Singularity’s back?” Gu Hai asked seriously.

“Humph! You are accusing me! Back then, the Eastern Monarch Palace passed you into my custody only to appease the Supreme Wa. Lu Ya sought me out to ask for you. I handed you to him to give him face,” the Supreme Genesis said anxiously while glaring.

Although the Supreme Genesis spoke the truth, everyone’s mind was now filled with grave doubts. This was the difference between who got to give their side of the story first. Had the Supreme Genesis mentioned it first, no one would have doubted him. Now, it was Gu Hai who brought it up. Everyone’s face sank. Did the Supreme Genesis do it on purpose?

“I am not accusing you; it might not be you. Why are you rushing to admit to it? If it is as you said, that Lu Ya sought you out, why did Lu Ya still bring me to the Animal Path Secret Realm after the Supreme Singularity had taken me from Lu Ya? If it is not you, perhaps someone else incited him to do that?” Gu Hai said with a smile.

“Huh?” Suddenly, the Supreme Genesis raised his eyebrows. He suddenly recalled finding a peacock feather when he found Yehua’s corpse after Gu Hai left.

Suddenly, the Supreme Genesis looked at Kong Xuan. Did Kong Xuan instigate Lu Ya, leading to Gu Hai finding the Animal Path Secret Realm? Was it him? If he is the spy, then it makes sense. He is the Supreme Singularity’s most trusted man. That was the most critical moment, so he could not possibly inform Long Zhanguo. As a result, he could only use another method, resorting to trickery?

Back then, the Supreme Genesis had been feeling slightly upset about Kong Xuan because of Yehua’s death. Thus, he now suspected Kong Xuan.

As everyone suspected the Supreme Genesis, the Supreme Genesis started suspecting Kong Xuan.

When the Supreme Genesis glanced at Kong Xuan, Kong Xuan raised his eyebrows. Why is the Supreme Genesis looking at me? Is he still thinking of accusing me?

“Gu Hai, you are getting too close to the Primal Chaos Universe Furnace!” the Supreme Singularity coldly warned Gu Hai.

Gu Hai had already gotten close to the Primal Chaos Universe Furnace without most people realizing it.

“Is that so? I’m just in the Lower Heavenly Palace Realm. Even with Immortal Energy, my strength is still limited. You aren’t worried that I will destroy the Primal Chaos Universe Furnace, right?” Gu Hai said coldly.

“Humph!” the Supreme Singularity snorted coldly.

The stronger one was, the more Immortal Energy one would receive. Now, even Long Zhanguo could not break the Primal Chaos Universe Furnace. What more, Gu Hai?

“Alright. Let’s talk about the Asura Path Secret Realm now. I believe it’s no secret that I uncovered it. This is a scroll that I took away when I made a bet with the Slaughter Heavenly Emperor back then. This scroll is the Asura Secret Realm entrance blueprint!” Gu Hai took out the scroll from that time with a flip of his hand.

Whoosh!

When the scroll flew out, everyone’s face sank when they saw it.

“I also obtained this by chance. I believe everyone knows how I obtained it; it has not been a secret for some time already. However, was it really by chance? I wonder if there were any people from the Solar Divine Palace nearby back then?” Gu Hai said with a smile.

“Kong Xuan?” The Supreme Genesis suddenly glared.

Back then, Kong Xuan had been in the Yuan Imperial Dynasty. After he fought with Imperial Emperor Xi Yu, he had clashed with Ba. The location of that clash was near the Slaughter Heavenly Emperor.

After Kong Xuan left, Gu Hai obtained this scroll. Perhaps Kong Xuan had not left?

“Supreme Genesis, what do you mean by this? Are you accusing me?” Kong Xuan demanded furiously while glaring.

While everyone suspects you, the Supreme Genesis, you actually dared to accuse someone else?

“Shut up!” the Supreme Singularity shouted coldly.

“Master!” Kong Xuan immediately called out anxiously.

“Eastern Monarch!” the Supreme Genesis called out anxiously as well.

“All of you, shut up. These are all just Gu Hai’s words. We will speak of this again after Long Zhanguo dies!” the Supreme Singularity said coldly.

“Yes!” the two answered.

The Supreme Genesis and Kong Xuan looked at each other with a cold glint in their eyes.

Whether the two were spies or not was no longer important. The most important thing was that the Supreme Singularity no longer dared to trust them unconditionally. As he refined Long Zhanguo, he kept his guard up against them.
