Gu Changge's gaze was leisurely as he lowered his eyes and blew on the tea in his cup.
His white robe was purer than snow, untainted by a speck of dust.
His handsome features seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist as if they were unworthy to gaze upon him.
His expression was calm, but if one looked deeper, one would find that it was indifference as if he did not care about anything.
He was high up, overlooking everything.
He was unpredictable.
He didn't seem to care about what happened in the hall at all.
He was detached from the world.
That was the impression everyone received from this young lord.
No matter who it was, they could feel that the identity of this man in white was not simple.
Whether it was his temperament or his behavior, there was a sense of transcendence.
He was not a mere mortal like them!
Of course, everyone did not know that Gu Changge's so-called indifferent expression was purely a loss of what to do — a blankness.
It was not that he did not care about what happened in the hall, but that he was in a daze because of the fusion of his past memories with his present.
He was a transmigrator.
He was still sleeping a second ago, but when he woke up, he was in this dangerous fantasy world.
Here, the strong could pluck the stars and take the moon, move mountains and flood seas, fly in the sky and burrow into the ground.
The weak were trampled on, their lives were worthless and were treated with contempt.
Respect was only given to the strong.
He was a true disciple of the Immortal Sect from the Upper Realm, who descended upon this lower world to gain experience.
His talent was superb, and his background was terrifying.
However, based on Gu Changge's experience of reading thousands of web novels in his previous life, his current role was akin to a cannon fodder villain that would not live past a few chapters.
Truly unfortunate.
The moment he had transmigrated, he encountered a situation where the Son of Destiny was about to slap his face.
Ye Chen had a name standard to protagonists'.
And a name like his, Gu Changge, was obviously that of a soon-to-be-dead villain prepared by the stupid author to make Ye Chen look cool.
However, as amazing as he was, could he not at least slap Ye Chen in the face?
"Gu Changge…. Gu Changge…"
By this time, Ye Chen had already called Gu Changge's name a few times, but he had received no response.
It was as if Gu Changge did not even bother to look at him.
This kind of complete contempt and disregard for him made Ye Chen even more furious. He clenched his fists so hard that cracking sounds could be heard.
"Impudent! How dare you call the Young Master by his name?"
At this moment, a loud shout came from the side. It was filled with coldness and anger, as well as a majestic pressure.
The speaker was Chu Xuan, the newly appointed Saint Son of the Tai Xuan Holy Land.
His expression was cold as he took large strides forward. Symbols flickered on his palm as divine splendor surged.
He was prepared to teach Ye Chen a lesson.
This was the time for him to perform.
If it wasn't for Gu Changge's praise, he would not be able to easily suppress the other true disciples and become the new Tai Xuan Saint Son.
Therefore, he was extremely grateful to Gu Changge.
After all, he was not like Su Qingge, who had a Divine Lord as her father, and thus was made a Saintess the moment she was born.
At this moment, another elder stood out and reprimanded loudly, not letting go of such an opportunity to curry favor with Gu Changge.
"Impudent! Ye Chen, today in front of all the guests, you have repeatedly provoked the sect. You really have ulterior motives. Men, quickly lock him up in the dungeon and let him await his punishment."
Seeing this, the other elders also stood up one after another and loudly reprimanded Ye Chen for his disrespect and offense.
"That's right! Divine Lord, why don't you take this opportunity to cripple Ye Chen's cultivation and expel him from the sect?"
"This a good opportunity to apologize to Young Master Gu."
All the guests of the great forces were extremely shocked.
What was the identity of this mysterious man in white?
Ye Chen's face turned pale all of a sudden.
He recognized that the situation was unfavorable to him.
Everyone was trying to curry favor with Gu Changge.
Even Su Qingge did not say a word.
Why?
This was completely different from what he had expected. He internally despaired.
At this moment, a cold feeling suddenly came from his fingers, immediately calming down Ye Chen's agitated state of mind.
Gu Changge sat at the head of the table and drank a mouthful of tea, his eyes full of interest.
Good! I didn't even have to say anything, and this Son of Fortune called Ye Chen became like this?
However, the entire situation drastically contradicted what should have happened with Ye Chen's identity as the Son of Fortune.
Then, Gu Changge's eyes turned and fell on the ring on Ye Chen's finger.
Tsk tsk tsk.
This was the cliche of an old grandpa from a few years ago. The Son of Fortune was definitely not going to run away.
Ye Chen opened his mouth again and stared at Gu Changge with incomparable anger.
"Gu Changge, apart from bullying people, what else can you do?"
From his point of view, Gu Changge had caused this entire situation.
If it were not for him, how could Su Qingge be personally sent over by Tai Xuan Saint Master?
Thinking of this, Ye Chen felt a surge of anger in his heart.
He could not wait to shred Gu Changge into pieces.
Who knew what would happen in one night?
Although he had gone through thick and thin with Su Qingge before, he had always treated her as someone who could only be seen from afar and could not be touched.
He had never even touched her dress!
Yet, Gu Changge, who had never met Su Qingge before, had probably touched her all night!
Gu Changge was still drinking tea calmly with his eyes lowered.
His expression did not change throughout the entire affair, and no one knew whether he was happy or angry.
Only he knew that he was somewhat amused.
'What does Ye Chen's anger have to do with me?'
In the original owner's memory, he did not even know that there was such a small character like Ye Chen.
He had not asked the Tai Xuan Saint Master to personally send his daughter to him.
Sucking up to the powerful and currying favor, wasn't this normal in every world, not to mention in a fantasy world where the strong preyed on the weak?
It was not his fault that he had a terrifying background.
This Ye Chen had no ability at all nor any background, but he was quite good at slandering people.
