âBastard!â
Liu Yuanâs face was ashen.
âEveryone, stop!â
Normally,
he couldn't be bothered to care how these Families privately fought or competed, and sometimes he even secretly fanned the flames.
But today was different.
Under everyoneâs gaze,
right in front of him, and at such an important moment as the Great Qi Martial Academy qualifying battle.
If Gu Han was truly allowed to continue stirring up the situation,
his face as the City Lord Liu of Tianwu City would be completely lost.
However,
Gu Han and Gu Chang had long since seen red, wishing they could kill each other to be done with it, so how could they listen to him?
In an instant!
The two figures were about to collide!
âHow audacious!â
A cold glint flashed in Liu Yuanâs eyes, and his Aura instantly surged, revealing his cultivation of the Third Level of Ju Yuan!
With a slight sway,
he instantly appeared beside the two who were about to collide, and all the spiritual power in his body erupted, pushing them apart!
âLittle beast!â
Gu Chang roared repeatedly.
âThe one thing I regret most is not killing you with my own hands that day!â
âOld dog!â
Gu Han stared intently at him.
âToday, you must pay for my adopted fatherâs life!â
Before he finished speaking,
a three-inch Sword Qi gathered at the tip of his sword, and he was about to charge at Gu Chang again!
The hatred in his heart
was far greater than Gu Changâs!
âArrogant!â
Liu Yuan narrowed his eyes and unleashed a full-powered palm strike!
Bang!
The cultivation gap between them was quite large, and Gu Han had also sustained serious injuries earlier, so he naturally couldn't completely block it.
A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out.
His body continuously retreated!
âCity Lord!â
At this moment,
Gu Chang also recovered a bit of his rationality, and quickly bowed to Liu Yuan.
âThank you, City Lord!â
âNo need!â
Liu Yuan gave him a cold glance.
âI am not helping you!â
âYes, yes!â
Gu Chang bowed again.
âAfter today, I will personally go to the City Lordâs Mansion to confess my crime and accept whatever punishment the City Lord deems fit, without a single word of complaint!â
Old fox!
The Family Heads of each Family changed their expressions, secretly cursing Gu Changâs cunning.
After today,
the Gu Family would have no place in Tianwu City and would certainly be boycotted by everyone. Their vast Family fortune would inevitably be lost, so it was better to offer most of their benefits and completely pledge allegiance to Liu Yuan.
This way,
if other Families wanted to move against the Gu Family, they would have to think twice.
âVery well.â
Liu Yuan naturally understood his meaning, and his tone softened a bit.
âBefore you come, make sure this mess is handled properly!â
âYes!â
Gu Chang breathed a sigh of relief, then glanced at Gu Chengâs head and the completely crippled Gu Yang, gnashing his teeth in hatred.
Even if he had to pay everything,
he had to completely eliminate Gu Han!
AlasâŠ
Below the arena,
everyone looked at the silent Gu Han, secretly sighing.
With the City Lord protecting him,
this revengeâŠ
it might not be achieved!
Contrary to them, the Gu Family members had expressions of relief, secretly praising Gu Changâs resourcefulness.
âYoung MasterâŠâ
A Sha ran over, crying.
âWeâŠâ
At this moment, only she could truly understand Gu Hanâs feelings.
âRevenge.â
Gu Han murmured to himself.
âMust be taken!â
What!
Everyone was greatly shocked.
Had this Gu Han gone mad!
With the City Lord here, can you still take this revenge? How can you take it?
Upon hearing this, Liu Yuanâs face darkened again.
âCity Lord!â
Gu Chang felt a surge of joy and seized the opportunity to say, âThis child is unruly and doesnât put you in his eyes at all. If he is left alive, he will certainly be a disasterâŠâ
Swish!
Before he finished speaking,
a beam of light suddenly lit up!
That light was too fast, so fast that even with Liu Yuanâs cultivation, he couldnât intercept it in time!
Puff!
A soft sound.
A bloody hole instantly appeared in Gu Changâs chest!
In the distance,
Gu Han gently lowered his longsword.
With the speed of Da Yan Sword Qi, the arena was only ten zhang in scope, so it naturally arrived in an instant. How could Gu Chang possibly dodge it?
âŠ
âGood!â
Inside the quiet room,
the Seventh Princeâs face turned red with excitement when he saw this sword strike, and he immediately stood up.
âSatisfying! Truly satisfying! Cough coughâŠâ
Before he finished speaking,
he coughed violently.
âYour Highness!â
Chief Steward Li was heartbroken.
âDidnât Old Xue say that your emotions shouldnât fluctuate too much? Alas⊠why donât you listen?â
âCough cough⊠Heâs a good one!â
âWhatâs good about it!â
Chief Steward Li was full of anger.
âHeâs just a reckless brute showing off for a moment!â
âReckless brute?â
The Seventh Prince shook his head.
âWith a fatherâs murderer right before your eyes, if you canât personally kill him, who knows how much pain you would endure? AlasâŠâ
He sighed, his expression somewhat forlorn.
âIf only I had half his courage, thenâŠâ
âYour Highness!â
Chief Steward Liâs eyes suddenly turned red, as if he had thought of something.
âItâs this old servantâs uselessness!â
âItâs not your fault.â
The Seventh Prince gave a self-deprecating smile.
âForget it, I am merely a person barely clinging to life. To have lived until now is already a great fortune, why think so much⊠Itâs just that seeing him made me feel some emotion! Speaking of which, he and I also have some fate.â
âYour Highness, youâŠâ
âLetâs continue watching.â
âŠ
Outside,
there was complete silence.
Everyone was utterly stunned.
Gu HanâŠ
He really made a move? He really dared to make a move?
Moreover,
he clearly had the cultivation of the Kai Mai Realm, so why was he able to kill Gu Chang of the Tong Qiao Realm?
And also,
what was that light he had just seen!
On the arena,
looking at the fist-sized bloody hole in his chest, Gu Chang swayed precariously.
At this moment,
he seemed to understand why the six Tong Qiao Realm cultivators who surrounded and killed Gu Han were instead counter-killed by him.
However,
it was too late!
His strength and vitality rapidly drained away. He stared intently at Gu Han, his face filled with unwillingness, staggering forward a few steps, but finally unable to support himself, he knelt on the ground, completely lifeless!
The place where he knelt
was precisely where Gu Tianâs memorial tablet was located!
âGrandpaâŠâ
Gu Yangâs face was filled with terror and despair.
âWhy⊠ImpossibleâŠâ
Adopted father.
Your revenge has been taken!
Gu Han gently exhaled, his body swaying twice.
The fatigue and travel of many days, combined with the injuries from the previous series of battles, all struck at once. Even with his profound foundation, he was a little unable to hold on.
âYoung Master!â
A Sha quickly supported him.
âAre you alright?â
âGu Han!â
Suddenly,
a roar filled with anger came!
âYou, how dare you!â
Liu Yuan stared at Gu Han, his face ashen.
âHow dare you disobey my command!â
Gu Chang was dead.
And he was killed right under his nose.
Not only did he not get the benefits from the Gu Family, but from now on, his prestige as the City Lord would also be greatly diminished.
Here it comes!
Everyoneâs hearts tightened.
In Tianwu City, Liu Yuan was like the heavens; no one had ever dared to disobey his words. Gu Han⊠was the first!
Not far away,
the Family Heads of each Family were already smiling with glee.
They could tell that Liu Yuan had murderous intent.
Now, it was no longer a matter of whether Gu Han could keep his Academy qualification, but whether he could survive. Everything that happened today, they were the biggest winners!
âYou are unfair!â
Unexpectedly,
before Gu Han could speak, A Sha stepped forward first.
âWhat did you say!â
âYou are unfair!â
A Sha repeated.
âThose people framed Young Master and even tried to kill him, so why canât Young Master kill them? You protect those bad guys, thatâs unfair!â
Hiss!
Everyone gasped.
Goodness gracious!
Was this still the slow-witted A Sha? How did she suddenly become so smart?
âFair?â
Liu Yuan smiled chillingly.
âI am the City Lord Liu of Tianwu City. My words are the rules! You violated the rules, and you still dare to talk about fairness with me!â
âCity LordâŠâ
On the arena,
Gu Yang suddenly spoke, his eyes filled with venom.
âPlease kill Gu Han to avenge my father and my grandfather. I am willing to offer everything of the Gu FamilyâŠâ
Puff!
Before he finished speaking,
a longsword pierced through his chest!
âGood, good, good!â
At the peak of his anger,
Liu Yuan instead calmed down.
âGu Han, in front of me, you have repeatedly committed violence. It seems⊠you truly donât put me, the City Lord, in your eyes!â
As he spoke,
dozens of City Guards instantly passed through the crowd, surrounding the entire arena!
âA Sha is right!â
Gu Han gently held A Shaâs hand.
âYou are unfair, I donât need to respect you, nor do I need to listen to you, much less abide by your rules!â
Saying that,
he slowly retreated, his somewhat listless spiritual power fully circulating!
He was already prepared to break through the encirclement.
âTake him!â
Liu Yuan narrowed his eyes.
âDown!â
AlasâŠ
Everyoneâs mood was somewhat complex.
The Gu Family was finished.
But Gu Han himself was also finished!
To take revenge, he sacrificed himself. Was it worth it?
âTsk tsk tsk!â
Just as Gu Han was preparing to break through with all his might, a sharp and harsh voice suddenly rang out.
âCity Lord Liu, what a grand display of authority you have!â
âThis one also doesnât want to abide by your rules. Are you going to take this one down as well?â
