27: Chapter 27: They're all saints! I didn't expect it to turn into a blow!

As soon as those four words were spoken, the grey-robed Elder's face turned deathly pale in an instant.

The Saint at the Second Heaven of the Tianxuan Holy Land even took a step back instinctively!

Peak Saint!

What kind of concept was that!

The Saint realm has the Nine Heavens, with each level being a chasm apart. One was at the Second Heaven, the other at the Fourth Heaven; even if they joined forces, they wouldn't be enough to fight a single Peak Saint.

"Retreat!" The grey-robed Elder made a prompt decision.

But as soon as he turned around, he collided with an invisible wall.

Boom!

He was sent flying back and took several steps to steady himself.

"Want to run?" Clan Chief Gu Tianhua stood where he was, not even lifting a hand; he merely glanced at them.

The surrounding air suddenly solidified, and an invisible barrier tightly enveloped a radius of a thousand miles.

"Four Directions Cage!" It was a name Clan Chief Gu Tianhua had coined on the fly; in reality, it was simply the Domain power of a Peak Saint.

Although he didn't know many Divine Abilities, the suppression of his cultivation level was more than enough!

"You!" The grey-robed Elder's expression changed drastically!

"Yo! Weren't you quite loud just now? Demanding my son kneel? Threatening to destroy my Gu Family? Why are you running now?" Clan Chief Gu Tianhua laughed.

The grey-robed Elder gritted his teeth and looked at the Saint from the Tianxuan Holy Land. They exchanged a glance and attacked simultaneously!

Two Saint-level attacks, one from the left and one from the right, went straight for Clan Chief Gu Tianhua!

Clan Chief Gu Tianhua didn't even move. He raised his hand and pressed down with a palm strike.

This palm strike had no fancy techniques, but it contained the incomparably powerful strike of a Peak Saint!

The power of a Peak Saint was simply not something a Second Heaven or Fourth Heaven could block!

Boom!!! The two attacks were crushed in mid-air.

The remaining force of the palm wind did not diminish and struck the two of them directly.

The grey-robed Elder's chest caved in, blood sprayed wildly, and he slammed into the ground. After twitching twice, he stopped moving!

The Saint from the Tianxuan Holy Land was even worse off; he was slammed entirely into the ground, with only his head left exposed. His eyes were wide open, and he had already lost all signs of life.

Two Saints, one palm strike, completely annihilated.

Another Elder at the Peak of the Half-Saint realm saw this scene, his legs went weak, and he knelt directly!

"Spare, spare my life!"

It was already too late for all that!

Clan Chief Gu Tianhua didn't even look at him and waved his hand casually.

The body of the Peak Half-Saint exploded, turning into a mist of blood that filled the sky.

The Disciples of the Yuheng Holy Land and the Tianxuan Holy Land collapsed to the ground, lacking even the courage to run.

The watching Loose Cultivators all had their mouths agape, their minds blank.

"Two... two Saints killed with one palm strike?!"

"Peak Saint! This person from the Gu Family is definitely a Peak Saint!"

"My god! What kind of monsters are the people from this Gu Family?!"

"The Old Ancestor is unfathomable, and they have a Peak Saint powerhouse, plus one who can kill enemies across cultivation levels while in the King Realm!"

"It's over, it's over; the sky of Qingyun Province is about to change."

Gu Chen stood behind Clan Chief Gu Tianhua, looking at his father's back. His mouth opened and closed, then closed and opened again.

Not only was his strength formidable, but he also looked much younger; he could almost pass as his brother!

He had many things he wanted to say, but he couldn't utter a single word.

The two little girls, Gu Qingqing and Gu Huahua, were the first to react.

"Clan Chief is so amazing!" Gu Qingqing jumped up.

"Slapped two bad guys to death with one palm!" Gu Huahua's eyes sparkled.

Clan Chief Gu Tianhua chuckled and turned to look at Gu Chen.

"How about it? Is your father amazing? Am I handsome?"

Gu Chen took a deep breath, held it for a long time, and finally squeezed out: "Dad, how did you become a Saint?"

"The Old Ancestor gave me a piece of candy; I ate it and had a Breakthrough."

Gu Chen: "..."

He suddenly felt like a fool for risking his life in the Secret Realm!

Gu Qingshan was even more bitter; what did his previous hard training outside even count for?

"Clan Chief, are you really a Peak Saint?"

"Could that be fake?" Clan Chief Gu Tianhua puffed out his chest.

Gu Qingshan's legs went weak. What was even going on! He clearly remembered that the Clan Chief had only been at the Peak of the Tongxuan realm before!

Now he was a Peak Saint?

He had gone out to train for a few months, and upon returning, he discovered that the Gu Family had destroyed the Tianming Sect, destroyed the Zixiao Sacred Land, killed the Saints of Yuheng and Tianxuan, and the Clan Chief had become a Peak Saint?

Just how much had he missed?

He hadn't believed that the Old Ancestor could be so powerful before, but now the facts proved that everything was true!

"Alright, alright, I'm here to take you all home this time; we'll talk about everything once we get home!"

He glanced at the entrance of the Secret Realm, where Cultivators were continuously being teleported out.

The Disciples of Yuheng and Tianxuan were still collapsed on the ground, none daring to move.

Clan Chief Gu Tianhua pointed at them. "You all, go back and tell your Holy Masters: if you want revenge, the Gu Family will take it!"

"But next time, it won't be as simple as just two Saints dying!"

This was the confidence brought by strength; if you aren't convinced, bottle it up!

After saying this, he waved his hand, took Gu Chen and the others, and soared into the sky, flying toward the direction of the Gu Family.

Behind them, the Cultivators outside the Secret Realm entrance watched them leave, unable to speak for a long time.

...

After another half-stick of incense time, the entrance of the Secret Realm flashed with light, and Li Shuangxu walked out with the people from the Qingyun Holy Land.

Just as he steadied himself, he sensed something was wrong. There was a smell of blood in the air, and large patches of blood on the ground.

A mountain in the distance had collapsed halfway, and there were traces of battle everywhere. He vaguely felt some unease.

"What happened?" Li Shuangxu frowned.

An Elder of the Qingyun Holy Land, who had watched the entire process from outside the Secret Realm, hurried forward and whispered the events to him.

After listening, Li Shuangxu's pupils constricted slightly.

"The Gu Family Clan Chief, a Peak Saint?"

"Yes. He killed the two Saints from Yuheng and Tianxuan with one palm, and wiped out a Peak Half-Saint with a casual wave."

Li Shuangxu was silent for a moment and took a deep breath. He instinctively touched the wooden token with the word 'Gu' carved on it in his bosom.

Thank goodness! Thank goodness he had taken the initiative to make friends in the Secret Realm. This Gu Family was becoming increasingly incomprehensible to him.

Li Shuangxu turned around. "Let's go, return to the Holy Land; this matter must be reported to the Holy Master!"

He paused and added, "Tell the Holy Master: the Gu Family can only be befriended, not antagonized!"

Subsequently, the people from the Qingyun Holy Land left rapidly.

On the other side, Huo Lie of the Yaoguang Holy Land also walked out. After hearing his subordinate's report, his expression shifted several times.

"Saint Huo Lie, what should we do?" his subordinate asked.

Huo Lie glanced in the direction of the Gu Family and said in a deep voice, "Return and report to the Holy Master: the Gu Family's strength far exceeds our imagination; in the future, if you encounter people from the Gu Family, walk around them!"

He thought back to the Secret Realm and felt a wave of relief that he hadn't come into conflict with Gu Chen.

"Let's go." The people from the Yaoguang Holy Land also left in a hurry.

The news spread like it had grown wings, rapidly sweeping across the entire Qingyun Province.

Two great Holy Lands joined forces, Saints were dispatched together, and they were completely annihilated by the Gu Family's Clan Chief with a single palm strike.

The Gu Family had produced a Peak Saint!

This news was even more shocking than when the Zixiao Sacred Land was destroyed.

After all, the Zixiao Sacred Land was at the bottom, while Yuheng and Tianxuan were true ten-thousand-year-old Holy Lands.

Even their Saints had been slapped to death with one palm; who would dare to provoke the Gu Family anymore?

A Family that had suddenly emerged actually had a Peak Saint powerhouse, and there was also an unfathomable Old Ancestor.
