203: What, you want to enter my Human Emperor Banner?
The moment the Solar True Body shattered, Ditian, who was in the Taiyi Holy Land, immediately spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
It was evident that the destruction of the Solar True Body caused a significant backlash to Ditian.
However, sensing the images transmitted back by his Clone, Ditian couldn't help but feel fortunate, patting his chest with lingering fear.
“You scared this Holy Master to death.”
“Zhuge scoundrel, I almost fell into your trap!”
The reason Ditian held back was not because he saw through Zhuge Huaizhi's strategy.
Rather, after all the previous events, he no longer dared to underestimate Gu Liangyuan.
So, with a thought, he began to ponder what Gu Liangyuan would do if he encountered the same situation as himself.
After much thought, he felt that Gu Liangyuan would definitely prioritize stability.
He wanted to try to see what kind of changes acting in Gu Liangyuan's way would bring him.
“I didn't expect that this cautious approach actually saved my life.”
At this moment, Ditian felt that he had been sublimated!
Recalling his past recklessness, he now only found it ridiculous and pitiful!
Ditian stood up and looked into the distance:
“From now on, I, Ditian, shall seek victory through stability!”
Just then, a ray of sunlight shone upon Ditian, and coupled with his dragon robe, it made Ditian at this moment appear as radiant as an ancient solar god.
Gu Liangyuan was unaware of Ditian's mental journey.
At this moment, he looked at the two retainers behind Zhuge Huaizhi and the two Mahayana Realm Elders brought by Ditian's Clone and said:
“The world says that I am fond of exterminating entire clans, greedy and bloodthirsty!”
“This is prejudice! Slander! Defamation!”
Listening to Gu Liangyuan's words, although those Great Ascension Realm Experts were inwardly critical, sensing the oppressive aura of Tianyi Old Man behind them, they dared not show any hint of it on their faces.
The further one progressed in cultivation, each higher realm represented an evolution in the level of life.
After the Mahayana Realm, it was very rare to hear of anyone fighting across realms.
Although some of them were Peak Mahayana Realm Experts, they had no confidence in surviving more than two moves against the Tribulation Transcendence Realm Tianyi Old Man.
Cultivators at their level cherished their lives greatly.
Loyal individuals like Zhuge Yu's Dao protector were extremely rare.
If Tianyi Old Man hadn't been suppressing the situation, they might have taken a chance.
But now that it was a certain death situation, they naturally dared not act rashly.
Tianyi Old Man looked at the righteous Gu Liangyuan, his mouth twitching.
If I hadn't seen you order the annihilation of tens of thousands of Demon Race members without batting an eye, I would have actually believed you.
Lü Qingmei and the others also had strange expressions.
Gu Liangyuan ignored the suspicious gazes of the crowd and continued to speak to the four individuals:
“Don't say I didn't give you a chance to live.”
“As long as you kill these two from the Zhuge Family, you will live…”
Before Gu Liangyuan could finish the word “live,” the two retainers brought by Zhuge Huaizhi's eyes flashed with cold light.
“Die!”
One of them roared, carrying the momentum of a thunderbolt, and punched towards Zhuge Huaizhi!
Wherever the punch wind reached, space vibrated, and strong winds surged!
Bang!
Zhuge Huaizhi had no chance to react and was directly blasted into a bloody mist by the retainer's punch, scattering across the sky.
Seeing this, Lü Qingmei thoughtfully cast a Fireball spell, directly burning the blood mist to ashes.
Bang!
Another sonic boom sounded, and the other retainer of the Zhuge Family also made a move, directly pulverizing Zhuge Hua, making him completely disappear between heaven and earth.
“Good!”
Gu Liangyuan cheered!
The two Great Ascension Realm Experts exchanged glances and simultaneously knelt on one knee towards Gu Liangyuan:
“If Gu Liang Sect Master does not mind, from now on, our two brothers will follow Gu Liang Sect Master's lead!”
Gu Liangyuan was greatly alarmed:
“What, you want to enter my Human Emperor Banner?”
Before the two could react, they saw Gu Liangyuan flip his hand and take out a small banner.
This banner was resplendent with golden light, and streams of Human Emperor Qi hung down from it, clearly not an ordinary item.
Without Gu Liangyuan's command, Tianyi Old Man immediately understood.
With a flick of his sleeve, two black and white chess pieces appeared out of thin air and directly pressed down on the heads of the two individuals.
The situation on the field changed too quickly, and the two were unprepared, plus Tianyi Old Man's cultivation was inherently higher than theirs.
With one move, the two died instantly.
Two Primordial Spirits floated out from their spiritual platforms.
Gu Liangyuan lightly shook the Human Emperor Banner, and two golden lights directly struck the two individuals.
Whoosh!
Struck by the golden light, the two Primordial Spirits instantly lost their consciousness and were absorbed into the Human Emperor Banner.
Putting away the Human Emperor Banner, Gu Liangyuan was satisfied.
With these two Mahayana Realm main souls in hand, Qianqiu would have another trump card.
The other two Mahayana Realm cultivators watched this scene, their hearts in their throats.
One of the Mahayana Realm cultivators swallowed, then bravely spoke to Gu Liangyuan:
“Running away is not an option, surrendering is not an option, Gu Liangyuan, if you're going to act, just give us a quick death, don't play with us anymore.”
This sentence was spoken with exceptional clarity and precision.
They were afraid that Gu Liangyuan would misunderstand again, causing them to repeat the fate of the previous two.
Gu Liangyuan suddenly laughed.
Seeing Gu Liangyuan's smile, the two retreated in unison!
Before killing those two retainers, Gu Liangyuan had also smiled like this!
Looking at the two retreating Mahayana Realm cultivators, Gu Liangyuan looked at Lü Qingmei beside him in confusion, pointing at his own nose and saying:
“Light Eyebrow, am I that scary?”
Lü Qingmei nodded, indicating her agreement.
Gu Liangyuan spread his hands helplessly.
Although Gu Liangyuan disliked the two retainers' betrayal of their master, it was not the reason to kill them.
The core reason was that the loyalty of these two was completely negative.
Such people must not be kept.
He looked at the two Elders from Taiyi Holy Land:
“Don't be nervous, just as I said before, I am not a bloodthirsty person.”
The two did not believe a single punctuation mark of Gu Liangyuan's statement.
Not bloodthirsty?
Then how come out of the six of us who came, only two of us are left now?!
However, Gu Liangyuan's next sentence relaxed their tense nerves considerably.
“I have feelings for your Taiyi Holy Land.”
“Before you, I had already subdued Li Xingyi and the Heavenly Cripple Duo.”
“Look at these few people now, aren't they all living well on Forget-Love Peak?”
“Even Li Xingyi's cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and he is now not far from Lianxu Peak.”
“The reason I killed those two was because they were from the Zhuge Family.”
“And they were fickle, betraying on the spot.”
“I promise you, if you join the Supreme Sacred Ground, your positions will remain unchanged, and your monthly stipends will be doubled!”
The two exchanged glances, both showing signs of being moved.
They were not moved by the doubled monthly stipend, but by the fact that they had a way to survive.
Gu Liangyuan's words continued:
“You should think carefully, Ditian brought you into danger with a Clone, which shows he didn't care about you at all.”
“Perhaps, to hide the fact that he sold out his teammates, Ditian might even try to deal with you after returning.”
“Staying in the Supreme Sacred Ground is your best choice?”
The other Mahayana Realm cultivator, who had been silent, tentatively spoke:
“What if we don't want to…”
Clang!
A red glow flashed across the heavens and earth, and the Nine Kill Sword was already in Gu Liangyuan's hand:
“What, you want to be sacrifices for my sword?”
The two immediately knelt on one knee:
“This subordinate Bai Su (Wen Yuan) greets the Sect Master.”
Looking at the two with forty loyalty points, Gu Liangyuan was satisfied.
Li Xingyi and the others had about the same number when they first arrived at the Peak.
He stepped forward and quickly helped the two up:
“I made a mistake in my cultivation, my ears are sometimes good and sometimes bad, we are all one family, don't be nervous.”
Truly, selective deafness.
