Chapter 189: Eliminating Two Families
Chapter 189: Eliminating Two Families
"Your son, Gu Yang, has claimed another territory, significantly increasing his forces!"
"Your son, Gu Yang, has been attacked by a Soul Fusion Realm sorcerer!"
"Your son, Gu Yang, has defeated the Soul Fusion Realm sorcerer using the Evil-Slaying Blade!"
...
Inside the Hall of Sharpened Blades, Gu Qingfeng glanced at the attribute panel. When he saw the notification about the Soul Fusion Realm sorcerer's attack, his eyes turned cold for a moment before returning to normal.
"Soul Fusion Realm sorcerer... Is this from the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect, or another faction?"
Gu Qingfeng muttered to himself.
At this level, such powerful individuals were rare. Any Soul Fusion Realm sorcerer held a significant status and position. Even within the Immortal Sects, they could be considered part of the upper echelon. Therefore, when the news of a Soul Fusion Realm sorcerer's attack appeared, Gu Qingfeng immediately thought of the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect. After all, he couldn't think of anyone else who would use such a powerful individual for an assassination attempt.
However, Gu Qingfeng didn't dwell on his doubts for long. When a dark guard entered and handed him a message from a carrier pigeon, all his confusion was resolved.
"Commander Nangong Yu of the Evil Suppression Bureau in Nanyang County!"
Gu Qingfeng hadn't heard much about the Evil Suppression Bureau in a while. As a department under the Tai Xuan Dynasty responsible for suppressing evil spirits, the bureau had branches in every state and county. Previously, Guangyang Prefecture also had a branch of the Evil Suppression Bureau. But when Gu Yang started his uprising, the bureau in Guangyang Prefecture vanished without a trace.
Clearly, the bureau in Guangyang Prefecture lacked the confidence to confront Gu Yang and had no intention of joining him. To preserve their strength, they withdrew from Guangyang Prefecture. Later, when Gu Yang conquered the entire Mount Tai County, all the branches of the Evil Suppression Bureau seemed to vanish into thin air, leaving no trace behind.
As his power grew, Gu Qingfeng didn't pay much attention to the Evil Suppression Bureau. After all, it was just another department of the Tai Xuan Dynasty. Even if it was somewhat powerful, how powerful could it be?
With his own strength, Gu Qingfeng had the right to ignore the existence of the Evil Suppression Bureau. However, the message from Nanyang County made him think about it again.
But with the Evil-Slaying Blade protecting Gu Yang, any Soul Fusion Realm sorcerer attempting an assassination was courting death. To be blunt, the Evil-Slaying Blade, now empowered by Gu Qingfeng's strength, could even slay a Life Transformation Realm expert, let alone a mere Soul Fusion Realm sorcerer.
After that, Gu Qingfeng read the rest of the message. After a moment, he clenched his hand, and the message crumbled into powder.
Blood sacrifice of the common people. The sealed evil spirit in Blood Mountain Prefecture. The information made Gu Qingfeng's expression cold.
Clearly, the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect was preparing for a do-or-die battle. Reputation was no longer important; they were determined to preserve their lineage, which was why they were resorting to such desperate measures. After all, even these Immortal Sects, which required the life force of living beings for cultivation, rarely resorted to mass slaughter. They viewed the common people as livestock, to be harvested in batches, ensuring a continuous supply.
On the contrary, if they killed everyone at once, there would be no more steady stream of life force.
With this thought, Gu Qingfeng looked at the dark guard and said coldly, "Tell Yang to continue as planned. He doesn't need to worry about the Blood Mountain Prefecture issue; I will handle it myself."
"Yes!"
The dark guard bowed and retreated.
Watching the figure depart, Gu Qingfeng's eyes turned cold and resolute.
"It's been a while since I've been active. Now is the perfect time to visit Nanyang County and see how the Blood Mountain Manor's evil spirits compare to the Nine Curves Dao's evil Buddha!"
"Using the blood of the people to awaken evil spirits—let's see if you even have the chance—"
Gu Qingfeng wasn’t a saint, but as a human, he couldn’t stand by and watch his own kind be slaughtered by evil spirits.
If he were weak, it would be a different story. After all, with little strength, even protecting himself would be a challenge, let alone saving others.
But in the current situation, Gu Qingfeng had to take action.
Even if it wasn’t for the sake of the people in Nanyang County, it was for the future of Gu Yang.
After all, Gu Yang aimed to conquer the world, and Nanyang County, as one of the four leading counties in Qingyun Province, was crucial.
If Nanyang County fell into chaos, it would hinder their plans.
For all these reasons, Gu Qingfeng had no choice but to step in.
As a homing pigeon flew away from the Gu Family Manor, Gu Qingfeng also departed quietly.
This time, he didn’t make a big fuss.
Before leaving the Gu Family Manor, he instructed Gu Peng to handle the affairs and had Hongye and others secretly guard the manor’s safety.
Excluding Xu Yulan, the Gu Family Manor now had several innate grandmasters, so Gu Qingfeng wasn’t worried about any issues arising.
The Gu Family Manor was no longer the same as it used to be.
...
As Gu Qingfeng left the Gu Family Manor and headed for Nanyang County, on the other side, the homing pigeon had already arrived.
Holding the letter in his hands, Gu Yang smiled.
"Good, if Father is willing to take action, the problem with Blood Mountain Manor won’t be an issue. Now, we just need to focus on the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect and the Pei Family!"
By sending the message through his secret agents, Gu Yang had hoped to persuade his father to take action.
Now that Gu Qingfeng was willing to step in, the weight on Gu Yang’s heart finally lifted.
Gu Yun and the other generals also showed signs of relief upon hearing Gu Yang’s words.
They knew exactly who Gu Yang was referring to as "Father."
If that person was willing to act, not just Blood Mountain Manor, but even ten Pei Families and Heavenly Sun Sword Sects wouldn’t be a concern.
Gu Yun said, "Since Master Gu is willing to act, the problem with Blood Mountain Manor’s evil spirits won’t be an issue. What are your plans, Your Majesty?"
"The Pei Family and the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect have committed atrocities that have enraged both heaven and man. They no longer deserve to exist.
"First, we will eliminate the Pei Family and the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect. This will significantly reduce the resistance in unifying Nanyang County."
Gu Yang’s face was cold, and his killing intent was unmistakable.
Both families had to be eradicated.
Initially, Gu Yang had planned to gradually weaken them before eliminating them to ensure absolute success.
However, with the news of the blood sacrifice and the fact that Gu Qingfeng was personally taking action, Gu Yang decided to abandon his cautious approach.
Eliminate the two families first, then deal with the other forces in Nanyang County.
Gu Yun was taken aback for a moment but quickly understood Gu Yang’s intentions and nodded.
"Your Majesty, please give your orders, and the Divine Martial Sect will do our utmost!"
