Chapter 88: Kill

  The corpse that fell from the sky tonight has shocked all the monks, but they were all thrown down by Wan Jia. Now that Wan Jia's monks have escaped, whose corpse is this?

  Could it be another enemy? Gu Jia Xiu Shi was suddenly shocked, turned his head to look up at the sky, and saw a pitch blackness, without seeing anything.

  "Ah...... The corpse moved." At this time, someone shouted.

  The eyes of all the monks turned towards the 'corpse', and indeed, that 'corpse' actually flipped over, raising its hand.

  "He's still alive." Gu Chen moved and appeared beside the man.

  As long as it can move, it's not a dead person, nor is it a 'corpse'.

  Gu Cangqiong, Gu Xian, San Changlao and others quickly ran over. The man was covered in blood, but everyone recognized his identity at a glance and exclaimed: "Yun Zhi..."

  He is one of the few six-layered congenital domain elders in the Yun family.

  Only Yun Zhi's eyes were scattered, and his hoarse voice said: "Save... save... save..."

  Yun Zhi seemed to have exhausted his last bit of life force after uttering the three words "save", and his legs straightened, instantly losing all vitality.

  "Is something wrong at home?" Everyone looked at each other.

  Gu Xian said, "Today, Gu Cang Yue went to the Liu and Yun families. In the end, only the Liu family came to offend us. It seems that the Yun family did not collude with Gu Cang Yue. The Gu and Yun families have been friends for generations, and I am especially close to Yun Xian. Now that the Yun family is in trouble, we should go and rescue them."

  "Father, to avoid being manipulated by others, I and Third Uncle will stay at home. You, Chen Er and Cang Qiu can go ahead. With me here in the clan and Chen Er going to the Yun family, neither side has anything to fear."

  "Alright..." Gu Xian nodded and said: "Let's go..."

  Three rays of light shot up into the sky, and Gu Chen, Gu Xian, and Gu Cang Qiu flew south towards Nan City. They soon arrived at Nan City, still a hundred zhang away from Yun's residence, but they could see that a battle was underway on the grounds of Yun's estate.

  The cultivators attacking the Cloud Clan were not many, only two, both of whom had a cultivation base at the Seventh Layer of the Innate Realm. The Cloud Clan, on the other hand, did not have even one cultivator at the Seventh Layer of the Innate Realm, and there were only three cultivators at the Sixth Layer of the Innate Realm. They were surrounded by the two Seventh Layer cultivators in the square, one in front and one behind.

  The Yun family was not as prosperous as the ancient families, with only about 30 or so pre-heavenly boundary cultivators, but there were around 50 to 60 people participating in the battle. Many post-heavenly boundary cultivators were surrounded on the square.

  Yun Hong, along with another elder of the Yun family at the sixth level of the Pre-Heavenly stage, stood in front and behind the crowd of Yun family members, resisting the attack of two seventh-level Pre-Heavenly stage cultivators. Both had already been injured.

  The two Innate Seventh Layer cultivators who launched the attack on the Yun family were none other than the two eldest elders of the Wan family, whose cultivation was the highest. Wan Tianrui had been letting them seal off the Yun family, and after starting the attack on the Gu family, he also let them launch an attack on the Yun family.

  However, Wan Tianrui led the main force of the Wan family to a great defeat at the Gu house. The remaining cultivators had all fled, but no one came to inform the two of them. They were still fighting with the Yun family's cultivators with great enthusiasm.

  Two people, and they would kill another person's entire family without leaving any room for resistance. The two of them felt extremely pleased in their hearts and wouldn't think that the main force of the Wan family had already been destroyed by the Gu family, disaster was about to befall on their heads.

  Having seen for a long time without taking it down, the Wan family elder suddenly used the Tianmo True Body, his body burst into expansion, instantly reaching nearly three zhang high, and his strength increased significantly. One punch struck Cloud Shocking Swan's sword aura, Cloud Shocking Swan's whole body shook, and was punched out by Wan family elder for several zhang away.

  "This little girl is quite pretty, after I capture her and take her back, I'll slowly train her, haha... not bad not bad..." Suddenly, Yun Xiong's fist struck out, Wan Jia Lao Lao burst into loud laughter, his two claws reaching for Yun Xue who was hiding behind Yun Xiong.

  "Xue Er, Chao Er retreat quickly..." A voice rang out, and a figure rushed towards Wan Jia Lao Zhang, resembling Yun Jing Hong in appearance. It was Yun Fei Hong, Yun Jing Hong's younger brother.

  Yun Fei Hong only had a cultivation of the Five Layers of the Innate Realm, how could he be a match for the Elder of the Wan Family? The Elder's massive claw grabbed Yun Fei Hong's magic tool and held it in his hand. Then, with another hand, he thrust forward and pierced Yun Fei Hong's chest.

  Immediately, his body was torn into five pieces, and Yun Fei Hong's body suddenly split into four or five parts, dying instantly.

  "Ah......" Yunxue and Yunchao screamed in unison, and in that instant, their second uncle was already dead, without even leaving a complete corpse.

  The Wan family's elder didn't slow down at all and continued to grab towards Yunxue.

  "Xu?r......" A mournful and piercing howl from Yun Hong, but at this moment he was too far away from Yun Xue to save her.

  A black giant claw was getting closer and closer to Yun Xue, while the other giant claw of Gu's family elder directly pierced towards Yun Chao's chest. Wan's family elder burst out laughing excitedly: "Hahaha..."

  At this moment, a dazzling light suddenly shot out from the air, a ten-meter-long sword aura, inserted upside down from the sky, and went straight to the head of Wan Jia.

  The sword aura had not arrived, but the long sword energy of tens of feet had already struck the body of the Wan family elder. However, the Wan family elder used the Tianmo True Body, and that layer of scaly armor defense was extremely strong, and the sword energy could not break through his defense at all.

  "Ah……” The old man of the Wan family let out a mournful cry, his massive body was instantly split in two by the sword aura, the scales on his body could withstand the sword energy but not the sword aura, and he was immediately cut into two halves.

  That sword aura that descended from the sky, instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the Cloud family. Immediately afterwards, everyone's gaze fell on the young man who was holding the hilt of the sword.

  Not Gu Chen, who else?

  "Is it him...?"

  This exclamation appeared in everyone's mind at the same time.

  Yun Xue stared at the figure, completely stunned. Yun Chao looked at Gu Chen with eyes full of incredulity. Yun Jinghong looked at Gu Chen, his eyes wide open like a cow's, unable to believe that a Seventh Layer Pre-Heaven cultivator could be killed by Gu Chen with just one sword strike?

  "Could it be that he's a genius or a monster? A Xiantian Seventh Layer cultivator was actually killed by him with just one sword strike!" Yun Xuan muttered to himself as he gazed at Gu Chen's figure.

  One sword cut down a Wan family elder, Gu Chen didn't care how others looked at him. His figure moved again, and he pounced towards another Wan family elder in the back.

  The Wan family elder was also shocked, never expecting that things would change so dramatically in an instant. Gu Chen's sword was incredibly powerful, leaving him stunned, and he knew he couldn't withstand it either...

  So, as soon as Gu Chen finished that one sword strike, the Wan family elder knew he was no match and immediately took to the skies and fled.

  Just as he had risen to a height of less than ten zhang, two sharp blades suddenly appeared in the air and chopped down towards the Wan family elder. Gu Xian and Gu Cang Autumn had made their move.

  Guxian's Pre-Heavenly Realm had six layers, while Gucang's Autumn Pre-Heavenly Realm had five. Originally, the two of them would have found it extremely difficult to stop this person, but this person still had a lingering fear from Gu Chen's earlier sword strike that had cleaved through the air. Seeing the air flash with an aura, he was suddenly greatly shocked in his heart.

  He didn't dare block it, his figure suddenly dropped to the ground, his feet tapped on the ground several times, changed direction and ran towards the distance.

  In this way, he avoided the attacks of Gu Xian and Gu Cangqiu, but it consumed several breaths of time. Gu Chen's figure was as fast as a flash of lightning, and had already caught up...

  This man escaped again, and had just flown out ten zhang away when a sword aura ten zhang long appeared behind him, slashing towards him. He turned his head to look, and his face suddenly changed color. Just now that young man was still on the other side of the square, how much time had passed? Yet he had already caught up here?

  Still in shock, Gu Chen's sword aura swept across his neck, a head flew far away, and a headless corpse suddenly fell from the air.

  The time when Gu Chen appeared was only about ten breaths ago. Two innate seventh-layer cultivators had already died at his hands.

  The Yun family's cultivators stared in shock at the scene before them. Gu Chen's performance had completely overturned their common sense. At just 12 years old, he had killed a Seventh Layer Heaven Chosen cultivator as if it were child's play. Was there anything more unbelievable than this?

  There is... Of course, if the Cloud Clan knew that Gu Chen had killed 8th and 9th layer Pre-Heaven cultivators, then coming back to see him kill two 7th layer Pre-Heaven cultivators would be like child's play.

  After beheading the two elders, Gu Chen's body didn't stay for a moment, transforming into a flash of light and disappearing into the night sky. From appearance to disappearance, not a word was said, leaving only a silhouette behind.

  "Grandpa... I'll be right back..." Gu Chen's voice came from afar.

  Yun Xinghong came before Gu Jianmian, his eyes wide with incredulity, and asked: "Uncle Gu, that...that person just now was...was Gu Chen?"

  "Hmph, of course it's Gu Chen." Gu Xian said with a bad attitude. Since Yun Jinghong came to cancel the engagement, Gu Xian had never given him a good face.

  "He... He even killed a cultivator at the seventh level of Xiantian Realm?" Yun Jinghong didn't notice Gu Xi'an's tone, but thinking back to what happened earlier still felt like a dream.

  After hearing Yun Jinghong's words, Gu Cangqiu on the side burst out laughing, and Gu Xian also had a smile all over his face.

  "What's a 7th layer cultivator of the Innate Realm?" Gu Xian said with disdain, "Even 9th layer cultivators of the Innate Realm were killed by Gu Chen."

  "What...?" The faces of the Yun family members changed in unison, as if the world before their eyes was twisting and turning, like heaven and earth were upside down.

  ……

  Gu Xian and Gu Cangqiu stayed at the Yun's house for quite some time, telling them about the downfall of the Liu family. Half a time period passed before they returned to the Gu's house, but Gu Chen had not yet come back.

  Until all the corpses in the square were cleared and the cracked ground was filled with giant stones, Gu Chen returned to the ancient house. Everyone asked him where he had gone, but he just said he went out for a walk.

  The next day, news came from the City of Taiyang that the Wan family, a cultivation family in the city, was completely annihilated overnight. All cultivators above the Pre-Heavenly realm were killed by an old man with eczema on his hands and face, including the sixth-level elder of the Pre-Heavenly realm. Not one person escaped.

  As for the eldest son and second son of the Wan family, they were never heard from again. From then on, no one ever saw the figures of the Wan family's eldest son and second son again. The Wan family, which had dominated the city of Taiyang for hundreds of years, declined from that point on.

  The monks of Taicheng rose up, and after a fierce battle, the three major Xiu Zhen families emerged victorious. From then on, Taicheng was divided into regions controlled by the three major Xiu Zhen families, with the government residing in the Western City, while the three major Xiu Zhen families respectively controlled the Northern City, Eastern City, and Southern City.

  The situation in Le Shui City was the opposite of that in Tai Yang City. The three major Xiu Zhen families, who had been fighting for hundreds of years, suddenly found that the Liu family in Bei Cheng was annihilated, the Yun family in Nan Cheng suffered a significant decline, and the entire Le Shui City was dominated by the Gu family in Dong Cheng.

  From then on, the city of Le Shui ended the situation where the three major Xiu Zhen families jointly managed it. All cultivators respected the Dong Cheng Gu family as the most superior, and there was no other force that could rival them.
