"Huh?" Gu Venerable was stunned for a mont, looking at Su Yang in shock. He originally intended to lie, but ultimately didn’t dare to.
Su Yang’s question indicated that he already knew many things. If he lied again, it would truly be a matter of life or death.
"It... it was given to by my ntor..." Gu Venerable muttered.
"Your ntor?" Su Yang frowned, "Who is your ntor? Where is he now?"
"My ntor has long since passed away..." Gu Venerable said softly.
"Hmm?" Su Yang’s brow furrowed, looking coldly at Gu Venerable.
"I’m telling the truth, he... he really died..." Gu Venerable hurriedly said, "Everyone around knows this. He was killed by the Guardian God, and our world was destroyed by the Guardian God as well. I was quite fortunate, my ntor desperately protected , so I could escape, but all the people from my world died..."
Su Yang remained silent, simply staring at Gu Venerable, inwardly judging whether his words were true or false.
After a long ti, Su Yang slowly nodded. Gu Venerable didn’t seem to be deceiving him. Moreover, these matters could indeed be verified as Gu Venerable claid, so lying would be aningless.
"What is the origin of this Gu Worm?" Su Yang asked solemnly.
"I don’t know either, this... it was passed on to by my ntor," Gu Venerable said. "Even my ntor couldn’t fully understand how to use this Gu Worm. I only know part of its usage. As for its origin, I truly don’t know, my ntor didn’t know either, he obtained it by chance."
"Really?" Su Yang said coldly, "This Gu Worm, if its usage isn’t known, recklessly contacting it ans certain death. Your ntor obtained this Gu Worm by chance and managed to survive? Hmph, do you think I will believe such words?"
Gu Venerable panicked, quickly saying, "Sir, I... I’m really not lying to you. When my ntor acquired the Gu Worm, nearby... nearby was the control thod for the worm. However, the control thod was only partial, that’s why... that’s why it’s like this. Otherwise, if my ntor could fully control the Gu Worm, how could he die at the hands of those Guardian Gods?"
Su Yang was puzzled, convinced Gu Venerable wasn’t lying to him. Therefore, the issue likely lay with his ntor.
Su Yang doubted his ntor could encounter such a coincidence, moreover, why pass such a powerful Gu Worm to Gu Venerable? There’s surely a problem here.
In fact, Su Yang even suspected that Gu Venerable’s ntor might not truly be dead. If this person indeed had issues, faking death wouldn’t be difficult.
"How did you co up with the idea to establish the Heavenly War Alliance?" Su Yang suddenly asked.
"Uh, this... was a concept my ntor ntioned before. After my ntor’s death, I created the Heavenly War Alliance to commorate him," Gu Venerable quickly said, fearing he’d be in trouble, "Originally, I established the Heavenly War Alliance to help all of the Human Clan. However, as more people joined, the quality varied, making it hard to manage, leading to the subsequent events. In fact, we... we never intended to harm our fellow beings, our... our purpose was to confront the Guardian Gods!"
The several core mbers beside him nodded repeatedly, naturally shifting bla onto others. Anyway, those people were dead, making it a situation without evidence.
Su Yang certainly wouldn’t believe what he was told; his focus was on the premise of Gu Venerable’s words. As for Gu Venerable shirking responsibility afterward, Su Yang didn’t care to listen. How could he be easily deceived by a few words?
The real concern for Su Yang was the origin of the Heavenly War Alliance, as described by Gu Venerable. According to him, it was a concept his ntor proposed, implying that the Alliance was actually his ntor’s idea. Later, Gu Venerable established this organization. In brief, the organization was inseparable from his ntor.
From a certain perspective, could it be said that his ntor influenced Gu Venerable’s thoughts, subtly guiding the creation of the Heavenly War Alliance?
That is, the mastermind behind all this was actually Gu Venerable’s ntor.
Gu Venerable’s ntor gave him the Gu Worm and led him to create the Heavenly War Alliance, leading to everything that followed. But what was his ntor’s real purpose?
Su Yang frowned, thoroughly inquiring about Gu Venerable’s ntor but ultimately failed to uncover this person’s aim, finally deciding to abandon the investigation.
Gu Venerable and the others were unsure how Su Yang would handle them, and seeing Su Yang silent, they all bowed their heads, hardly daring to breathe.
After a long while, Su Yang gestured to the three Crystal Skulls beside him, "Choose one each."
Gu Venerable and the others were astonished, unsure of Su Yang’s intentions. They didn’t realize this was for the Crystal Skulls to each select soone to kill, and then impersonate that person’s identity for tasks.
Su Yang naturally chose Gu Venerable, directly devouring him, absorbing everything of Gu Venerable, then easily transforming into Gu Venerable’s appearance.
The three Crystal Skulls also selected individuals, but unlike Su Yang, they needed to study the person well to imitate their form.
Of course, if Su Yang had them cultivate the Devouring Secret Technique, it would be much easier. But the issue is, Su Yang himself didn’t know the ultimate outco of cultivating the Devouring Secret Technique, so he dared not recklessly let others cultivate it.
The other core mbers saw this, trembling with fear, dropping to their knees, begging continuously.
"You killed so many of your Human Clan brethren, now you want to spare you?" Su Yang said coldly, "Why should I?"
One of them quickly replied, "Sir, we... we know we are guilty as charged. However, Gu Venerable truly forced us before; we didn’t want this. From now on, we... we are willing to work for you, serve tirelessly, even facing death, hoping to sohow make ands for our previous cris!"
"Hmph!" Su Yang sneered, "Ultimately, you want to spare your lives? I’ve already said, you killed so many Human Clan brethren. If I spare you, wouldn’t it be unfair to the deceased? If you want to live, you must offer sothing satisfactory. Otherwise, even if Gu Venerable is the mastermind, you’re all deserving of death!"
