After making up his mind, Gu Sheng walked directly further south.

Dense forests, mountains, rivers, villages...

In order to hide his whereabouts, Gu Sheng tried to walk as much as possible to avoid being discovered by Ji Family Holy Lord and other Ji Family bosses.

Tens of days later, Gu Sheng came to Southern Region, a larger capital city.

The capital was bustling with people, including many practitioners.

"Huh..."

Gu Sheng let out a long sigh of relief, "Let's settle here first. If we encounter Ji Family people, we can avoid the sharp blows using the method we called on cultivators to fight against Ji Hui."

Then, Gu Sheng came to an inn, intending to fill his stomach first.

Gu Sheng Stepping into the door of the inn, a strong aroma of wine and meat hit your nostrils.

"I'm so greedy..."

Gu Sheng smashed his mouth and looked around.

I saw that the inn was very lively. The guests were drinking and having fun, or chatting in low voices. It was a bustling scene.

"Boss, let's have a bottle of wine and a plate of peanuts first."

Gu Sheng shouted to the boss on the counter.

The boss, a middle-aged man, responded with a smile on his face, "Okay, sir, please wait a moment."

Gu Sheng found a corner to sit down, sipping wine and observing the surrounding environment.

He noticed that the inn was very busy and there was no trace of the Ji Family people.

"It seems that the Ji Family people did not notice my arrival."

Gu Sheng was secretly glad.

"My guest, you want peanuts and Huadiao wine."

A waiter brought the food.

"Two more pounds of beef, and a bowl of soybean noodles."

After seeing that there was no danger, Gu Sheng continued to give instructions.

"Spicy... spicy noodles?"

The waiter was slightly startled.

"What?"

Gu Sheng looked up and asked.

The waiter showed a professional smile and explained, "Sir, I'm sorry, we are in the south, and the store does not prepare pasta. Why don't you try our rice? It has a unique flavor."

"Um..."

Gu Sheng looked stunned.

Then he suddenly realized that he had arrived in the south.

Gu Sheng nodded to express understanding.

So he changed his words directly. "In that case, let's have two bowls of rice."

"Okay, two bowls of rice!"

The waiter responded, quickly wrote down Gu Sheng's request, turned around and ran towards the kitchen.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."

Gu Sheng picked up the Huadiao wine in front of him and took a sip.

The richness and aroma of wine left in the mouth.

He looked through the window of the tavern at the bustling streets outside, and he couldn't help but feel filled with emotion.

Ever since he escaped from the Carefree Sect and Void Crossing failed, it was like a dream.

Everything here was completely different from everything he was familiar with.

Both the local customs and cultural customs felt strange to him.

Gu Sheng knows that now we need to do as the Romans do.

Only by adapting to the environment here can we survive better.

His eyes returned to the tavern, watching the diners around him chatting and laughing, and his mood gradually relaxed.

Soon, the waiter brought up two pounds of beef and two bowls of rice.

Gu Sheng Looking at the steaming rice, his appetite increased greatly.

He picked up his chopsticks, picked up a piece of beef, and ate it with peanuts and rice.

The deliciousness of the beef, the crispiness of the peanuts, and the softness of the rice greatly satisfied Gu Sheng's taste buds.

As he ate, he thought about what he should do next.

The vast Eastern Wasteland, where to go?

While Gu Sheng was lost in thought, several people sitting next to him started talking.

"Have you noticed? Every sect seems to be a lot more nervous these days."

"Isn't it? It's all because of that... what's that guy's name? Yes, Gu Sheng! That kid is called Gu Sheng."

"Yes, I've heard that too. This guy is really a man. Not to mention fighting Ji Family alone, two Ji Family elders also fell into his hands. He is really not an ordinary person..."

"Tch! If he has something to eat, he is wanted by the entire Eastern Wasteland. This is no small matter!"

Listening to these people's discussions, Gu Sheng was secretly surprised.

He didn't expect that his matter would spread so quickly.

Calculating the distance, it's at least tens of thousands of miles.

The only explanation for the news reaching here so quickly is that there are already Ji Family people here!

"Huh..."

Gu Sheng took a deep breath and speeded up his eating.

It would be a big loss if Ji Family discovered me before my stomach was full.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Suddenly, the rapid sound of a gong sounded.

"Gu Sheng was caught! Gu Sheng was caught!"

"Come and watch the excitement! Gu Sheng has been arrested by the Ji Family! He will be executed immediately!"

There were shouts in the streets.

The diners were suddenly startled when they heard this.

"What? Gu Sheng was arrested? Arrested by the Ji Family? Are you still going to be executed?"

One of the diners stood up suddenly, with a hollow look in his eyes.

The diner was stunned for two seconds and then rushed out.

"Hey! Why are you in such a hurry?"

cried his companion.

"Gu Sheng is my idol, I want to send him off!"

The diner who rushed out said without looking back.

"Uh... this kid..."

His companions were speechless, and then followed him out.

Gu Sheng looked around and saw that all the diners just now had gone to watch the fun, and he was the only one left.

But Gu Sheng was really speechless at this time. Could it be that he has another self?

"Waiter! Check out!"

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, he flew away directly.

In this way, following the crowd, we walked through the bustling streets and arrived at the bottom of a high platform.

Crowds had already gathered around the high platform. Their eyes were focused on the high platform and they were talking about it.

"Is this Gu Sheng?"

"I've never seen him, but I've heard of him before. He's a man!"

"Well, I also admire people like him!"

The crowd standing next to Gu Sheng whispered.

Gu Sheng felt a little happy when he heard this.

He didn't expect that he would become somewhat famous.

It seemed that when he looked up, he saw a person who looked almost exactly like him standing on the high platform!

The man was wearing similar clothes to himself, and even the expression on his face was perfectly imitated.

"This..."

Gu Sheng was shocked, could there really be another me?

While he was wondering, a sea-blue figure flew to the table like lightning.

Gu Sheng took a closer look and saw that it was a man wearing a navy blue cultivator robe.

He was holding a gleaming steel knife with a mighty aura.

At first glance, Gu Sheng thought it was Ji Haoyue.

But after seeing it clearly, I realized that I didn't recognize this face.

"Uh-huh!"

The cultivator in navy blue clothes instantly put the knife on the fake Gu Sheng's neck with a look of contempt on his face.

"Gu Sheng! You have today too!"

The sea blue cultivator said coldly.

Fake Gu Sheng's face instantly turned pale, as if he had lost his soul.

"Everyone, I, Ji Haiyue! The Holy Lord has an order. If you catch Gu Sheng, you can kill him directly! Now that this person has fallen into my hands, in order to rectify my reputation, Ji Family, I will carry out the Holy Lord's order in this capital!"

Gu Sheng, who was standing in the audience, heard these words clearly.

Ji Haiyue...

Gu Sheng had heard Ji Ziyue mention it before. This was one of his cousins who was good at ice magic.

Compared with Ji Haoyue, his ability is still a little bit behind.

I didn't expect to see him here.

However, the fact that he calls himself "my true self" shows that he is arrogant and arrogant, which corresponds to the cold and ruthless nature of the ice spell he practices.

What makes Gu Sheng even more puzzled is, why did he do this?

Does he really think that Gu Sheng on the counter is real?

Or is this intentional?

Gu Sheng frowned slightly, planning to stand still and see what he was going to do.

"Say!"

Suddenly, Ji Haiyue roared loudly.

Fake Gu Sheng suddenly trembled and asked, "Senior, what did you say...?"

"Hmph!"

Ji Haiyue snorted coldly and continued to scold, "Tell me what kind of person you are!"

"I..."

Fake Gu Sheng was stunned, his whole body was like chaff, and he almost peed in fear.

"I... I colluded with the members of the demon clan, deliberately went against the Ji Family, and wanted to be the lackey of the demon clan. Before, I molested my junior sister at the Tai Xuan Sect and stole the Tai Xuan Sect treasure..."

The fake Gu Sheng made these shocking remarks on the stage.

When Gu Sheng heard this, his eyes widened immediately.

It turns out that Ji Haiyue, the fake Gu Sheng, recruited these things to smear his own reputation.

"My darn thing!"

Gu Sheng was filled with anger, ready to rush forward and have a good fight with Ji Haiyue.

Suddenly, Gu Sheng took a deep breath and calmed down.

He realized that this might be a trap carefully laid by Ji Haiyue, and he couldn't act impulsively like this.

After all, he Ji Haiyue has never seen himself, how does he know so much?

Besides, what's fake is fake!

Afterwards, Gu Sheng continued to stare closely at the fake Gu Sheng on the stage, thinking about countermeasures.

"What else! Tell me quickly!"

Ji Haiyue scolded again.

"I, I also planted explosives in Fire Domain, intending to destroy most of Eastern Wasteland. Then I will rule Southern Region with the demon clan!"

The voice of fake Gu Sheng echoed on the high platform, and his words were full of malice.

"Huh?"

When everyone in the audience heard this, they started talking.

"Oh my God, Gu Sheng is so cruel and cruel, and wants to destroy Eastern Wasteland!"

"How could he do this? He is simply our Southern Region enemy!"

"This kind of person, no matter how talented he is, cannot be allowed to live in this world!"

"Kill him! Kill him!"

Discussions came like a tide...

Gu Sheng's face became increasingly ugly, and the fists in his hands clenched loudly.

If you allow fake Gu Sheng to continue to be smeared like this, your reputation will be completely destroyed.

"Enough!"

Gu Sheng finally couldn't help it, and his voice exploded like thunder.

Everyone present was stunned by the sound.

"Whoosh!"

In an instant, Gu Sheng's figure appeared on the high platform like a bolt of lightning.

At this time, Gu Sheng's eyes could almost spit fire, staring at the fake Gu Sheng.

"Who are you? Why are you pretending to be me and slandering my reputation?"

Gu Sheng asked coldly.

"I... I..."

Fake Gu Sheng was so shocked by Gu Sheng's momentum that he was speechless for a moment.

"You faker, how dare you slander my reputation, Gu Sheng, today I will let you taste my power!"

Gu Sheng said, light flashed in his hand, and Fire Spirit Dagger appeared in his hand instantly.

"Wait a minute!"

Ji Haiyue suddenly stood in front of fake Gu Sheng.

"Gu Sheng, you finally showed up."

Ji Haiyue sneered and said, "Your behavior has caused public outrage, what else do you have to say?"

"Ji Haiyue, your method is too despicable, you used such a despicable method to deal with me."

Gu Sheng pointed at Ji Haiyue with Fire Spirit Dagger, trying to kill him!

"Ha ha..."

Ji Haiyue smiled disdainfully, "To win or lose, the means are not important, the results are important. Today, you Gu Sheng are destined to be ruined."

"Huh..."

Gu Sheng took a deep breath.

Now is not the time to argue with Ji Haiyue, you need to prove your innocence.

Even if you die, you can't get a bad reputation!

"Everyone, listen to me, this guy is fake. I, Gu Sheng, have never done anything to betray Eastern Wasteland, let alone colluded with the demon clan."

Gu Sheng said loudly to everyone in the audience.

Some of the people in the audience began to waver. After all, Gu Sheng was their hero before.

"Hmph, it's all nonsense. What evidence do you have to prove your innocence?"

Ji Haiyue said provocatively.

"Evidence? I don't need evidence, because I have never done those things, but you, Ji Haiyue, what evidence do you have to prove that I have done those things?"

Gu Sheng asked rhetorically.

Ji Haiyue was speechless for a moment, but he didn't expect Gu Sheng to be so calm.

Then, Ji Haiyue sneered, "Gu Sheng, let me ask you, Peacock King is a powerful figure in the demon clan, why is he so nice to you?"

"Being good to me is a matter between us. It has nothing to do with you."

Gu Sheng looked disdainful.

"Okay, okay!"

Ji Haiyue heard this and clapped his hands directly, and then said coldly, "'We' is a good word to use. It seems that you and the demon clan really have an ulterior secret!"

"No means no!"

Gu Sheng retorted.

"Then you find a witness? Prove that you don't have it. Otherwise, how can everyone believe what you say?"

Ji Haiyue The corner of his mouth raised slightly, his face full of pride.

Gu Sheng squinted his eyes, secretly summoning his power, and prepared to kill Ji Haiyue to prevent him from talking nonsense.

Just when Gu Sheng was about to take action, a familiar voice suddenly remembered.

"I can prove it!"

Gu Sheng turned around and saw Ji Ziyue flying over wearing purple gauze.

"Ji Ziyue, it's Ji Ziyue!"

"Ji Family What's going on? Why are so many people suddenly here?"

"She's so beautiful. It would be great if she could be my wife..."

The appearance of Ji Ziyue surprised everyone present, and also aroused some people's lust.

She, Ji Family's famous genius, is also Ji Haiyue's cousin.

I just don't know why she suddenly appeared here.

"Ziyue, what are you doing? Do you want to help outsiders deal with your brother?"

Ji Haiyue's face turned ugly.

He didn't expect that his sister would stand up and help Gu Sheng at this time.

Ji Ziyue glanced at this brother and looked very unhappy.

"Brother, Gu Sheng did not collude with the demon clan, let alone do those things."

Ji Ziyue's eyes widened, anger in his tone.

"Get down here! Now! Immediately! Immediately!"

Ji Haiyue's tone became sharp.
