Chapter 1133: Omniscient and Omnipotent?
Chapter 1133: Omniscient and Omnipotent?
Gu Heng's instincts told him that this matter was definitely not that simple.
Just by using his brain a little and thinking about it more deeply, Gu Heng felt that shadows were everywhere, and hidden in those shadows were a lot of unknown tricks.
Leaving aside Gu Ce's true purpose.
The mere fact that the Imperial Advisor obtained such important information was enough to set Gu Heng's mind racing.
Qinggu Shenjun would never be so foolish as to be unable to keep a secret, and he would definitely try his best to guard against Gu Ce.
Although Gu Ce is still the strongest asset of the Qinggu Divine Kingdom, and his absence would make other dynasties restless and have plans to attack him, does all of this still have any meaning after Qinggu Divine Lord breaks through to the level of "quasi-god"?
If we could really take that step...
Even if the Azure Ancient God Lord is not a true god, he can definitely reach a new height that all living beings can only look up to!
Until then.
Whether it's the Zhu Fang Divine Kingdom or the Bai Wu Divine Kingdom, if we attack them all together, wiping them out would be a matter of a single thought.
Therefore, Qinggu Shenjun would never be so foolish as to let the rebels foresee that he would sacrifice the nation's destiny.
But how could such a secret be so easily exposed to Gu Ce?
The flaws inside are numerous.
However, Gu Heng had no time to think about it now.
He was unwilling for Qinggu Shenjun to engage in such bloody self-interest, let alone for Qin Yiyao, there was also an opportunity involved. Although Gu Ce did not say it explicitly, judging from what Qin Yiyao had told him, it might really be so.
Think of this.
Gu Heng couldn't help but sigh.
Once the arrow is released, there's no turning back.
……
After Gu Heng entered the spatial rift and left completely.
Gu Ce turned to look at a certain spot in the otherworld: "His condition is truly worrying."
"What's there to worry about?"
Along with the somewhat nonchalant and relaxed voice came the blurry figure of Xiaoyao Jun, who clearly had not actually arrived in this strange realm.
"He still possesses a power that is beyond the reach of ordinary people, and it is not wrong to say that he is another kind of 'era god'."
“And you already know how to get him to use that power.”
Xiaoyao Jun's laughter echoed.
He was a man of great experience, but he never imagined that anyone could control the amnesiac enemy of the era. Although, in his view, Gu Ce's actions could hardly be considered manipulation of Gu Heng, they were close enough.
This tactic of using someone else to do one's dirty work is so common, yet it's surprisingly effective.
Who allowed Gu Ce to borrow the sharpest knife in the world, a knife that could even wound the gods?
Most importantly, no one else knows about this.
The two retainers died in a muddled way, and Xiaoyao Jun thought that Qinggu Shenjun would also die in a muddled way in the end, as would the other enemies who were all involved in this conspiracy.
Poor thing.
"To be honest, I don't have that ability."
Faced with this seemingly flattering sarcasm, Gu Ce simply shook his head. "If he doesn't like my plan, turning away is the least he can do; killing me on the spot is the worst he can do. It all depends on his decision."
"But to me, it is indeed very strange."
Xiaoyao Jun laughed and asked, "What do you mean?"
“His strength is not diminished at all. I have also deciphered some of his memories and know the clues of that battle of gods. But as far as I can see, he is by no means at a disadvantage. In fact, it can be said that he once had the advantage.”
Gu Ce paused for a moment: "But why did he still end up like this?"
He's not blind.
If the Great Enemy of the Epoch could defeat seven enemies at once, and even seven Epoch Gods could maintain a significant advantage, then why are the myriad realms of the world now telling a different story?
This doesn't match what Gu Ce saw.
At least, what he saw told him that Gu Heng was not defeated by the Epoch God!
It is another being, something more mysterious, something never known to anyone, something higher than the gods, that has made its move!
"How much of his memory have you deciphered?" Xiaoyao Jun asked.
"This is clearly not enough for me to know the truth."
Gu Ce shrugged.
"As for Your Majesty Xiaoyao, you and he had a secret plot before the war of the gods. Perhaps you have something to tell me?"
Hear the words.
Xiaoyao Jun didn't utter a sound.
Because Gu Ce also mentioned the biggest question in his heart.
"Hehe, the Grand Preceptor's plan is about to fall through."
Xiaoyao Jun said regretfully, "We're not even on the same page. It's just a matter of each other getting what we need. I need knowledge, and he needs help to make plans. That's all."
Is that really the case?
Gu Ce's eyes gradually turned cold.
"Of course," Xiaoyao Jun said with certainty.
"Then how do you know that the Azure Ancient God-King is going to hold a divine sacrifice, offering up the last remaining fortune of the Azure Ancient Divine Kingdom, as well as all the living beings within the divine kingdom?"
Gu Ce's questioning caused Xiaoyao Jun's blurry figure to begin to flicker.
But he received no answer.
Gu Ce didn't wait for Xiaoyao Jun to continue thinking and said to himself, "If His Majesty Xiaoyao can extend his reach into the Qinggu Divine Kingdom without me knowing, then I, as the Grand Preceptor, have truly failed in my duty, let alone what kind of confidants you can plant next to His Majesty the Divine Lord."
"You could never have learned about the divine sacrifices from His Majesty, so..."
"I had expected this all along, and you certainly don't have that ability."
Xiaoyao Jun remained silent.
Gu Ce finally dispelled the fog and faced the core of the question: "Did Gu Heng foresee this happening long before the war of the gods?"
Finally, Xiaoyao Jun's expression shifted slightly.
For the first time, the blurry figure revealed its eyes, which met Gu Ce's gaze.
"Now you know why the Great Enemy of the Epoch is so terrifying, right?"
Even if it's not explicitly stated, it's no different from tacitly agreeing.
Gu Ce could read the emotions in those eyes.
Fear.
Just like when he heard the news from Xiaoyao Jun, he felt the same way.
only.
Xiaoyao Jun learned this from Gu Heng, and it was a long time ago, long before that great enemy of the era lost the war of gods and fell into such a state.
"He didn't say that it was the Azure Ancient God Lord who would do this, but he told me that any ruler of a dynasty who has been obsessed with becoming a god for a long time and has actually benefited from it will inevitably think about going further. When he goes further, that is the best time for his plan to be implemented."
"The Qinggu Divine Kingdom has recently suffered a great blow, and your emperor... must be unable to sit still any longer."
Xiaoyao Jun's voice became somewhat weak.
Gu Cegang detected another emotion in that tone, a complex feeling of fear and numbness mixed together.
Can understand.
Gu Heng seemed to be omniscient and omnipotent, able to foresee everything. Cooperating with him meant being blinded and deceived. Only a fool would not feel frustrated.
How could such methods not be frightening?
