43: Chapter 43 The Gu Family! No Threats Allowed!

Suddenly, a person stepped out from the crowd of the Yi Gang.

She wore green robes, had delicate features, and possessed an outstanding temperament.

She stepped out from behind Shen Qinghe with light footsteps, as if she had known this moment would come all along!

Shen Qinghe's expression changed, and he reached out to stop her, but she gently pushed him aside.

"Yao'er, you..."

"Big Brother! What must come will always come!"

Her name was Shen Yao, the eighteenth leader of the Yi Gang!

She walked to the side of Gu Chen, gave a slight nod to Gu Chen as a sign of respect, and then turned to look at the woman.

"You say we ruined the good deeds of the War Emperor Palace? Are those hostages the goods you wanted?" Shen Yao's voice was not loud.

But every word was crystal clear!

"Your War Emperor Palace runs rampant in the Western Regions, forcibly seizing innocent women. Do you really think the whole world doesn't know?"

The woman's expression changed slightly.

Shen Yao continued, her voice growing colder: "This time, you are hunting us down, not because of those hostages, right? It's because the Western Heaven War Emperor has taken a fancy to me, hasn't he!"

The entire crowd was in an uproar!

The watching Cultivators looked at each other in dismay.

The Western Heaven War Emperor's reputation for lechery had even reached the Eastern Region.

It was rumored that years ago, he had taken a fancy to a married woman whose husband was also an expert of the Eternal Realm. The Western Heaven War Emperor failed to seize her and was instead beaten until severely injured, taking three hundred years to recover.

His lecherous nature never changed, and now he had cast his gaze upon this woman in green.

Shen Yao sneered: "War Emperor Palace, what great might! Whoever you take a fancy to, you must seize, and if you can't, you wipe out their entire Family! You even find such high-sounding excuses; don't you find it ridiculous?"

The woman's expression turned completely sullen!

She had not expected this seemingly weak and delicate woman to tear away the fig leaf of the War Emperor Palace in just a few words!

"It's useless for you to say anything now! Today, whether you want to leave or not, you must come! If you are sensible and come back with me to serve Lord War Emperor well, you might suffer less!"

"Otherwise, there is only a dead end!"

She looked at Gu Chen and threatened: "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business! The affairs of the War Emperor Palace are not something you can interfere with! Otherwise, when Lord War Emperor is enraged, your entire Gu Family will be left with nothing, not even a chicken or dog!"

When the War Emperor is enraged, blood splatters for a thousand miles!

Clearly, she had been taught too little of a lesson by that Eternal Realm expert surnamed Lin!

Old habits die hard!

This time, he had taken a fancy to Shen Yao of the Yi Gang again!

Just find any excuse; as long as the person is captured and brought back, that is all that matters!

Nothing else needs to be cared about!

After all, the title of Western Heaven War Emperor is not called for nothing!

Gu Chen frowned.

"I said, I will give you three breaths of time to get lost!"

Gu Chen's voice turned cold: "Not only do you not get lost, but you also threaten the Gu Family?"

The woman sneered: "Threaten? Do you even deserve to be threatened by me? I will say it one more time: hand the person over!"

A Family from a backwater, actually daring to threaten the War Emperor Palace?!

Those who didn't know might even think they were an Imperial Clan!

When the Western Heaven War Emperor arrives in person, these people will know what an Eternal Realm expert is!

Hearing the threatening words one after another immediately made Jian Wuji feel displeased!

Threatening was one thing, but to dare to disrespect the Young Lord!

Jian Wuji raised his hand and struck with a sword!

Crack!

In less than a breath of time!

The woman's body froze in place, her mouth still open, her expression still solidified in the moment of sneering!

The next second, her body split from the middle, turning into a sky full of blood mist!

There wasn't even a scream!

For a moment!

All the Cultivators who were prepared to watch this good show were stunned!

"Insta-, instantly killed?!?"

"Damn, they really killed her!"

"Hiss! This Gu Family is so terrifying! They even dare to kill people from the War Emperor Palace!"

"That was a person of the Western Heaven War Emperor! The Western Heaven War Emperor of the Eternal Realm!"

"Is the Gu Family crazy? No! The Gu Family is simply not afraid at all!"

"One sword strike, I didn't even see the sword and the person was gone. What exactly is the cultivation level of that person in white from the Gu Family?! "

"Whatever his cultivation is, it feels much higher than a Saint King! I think the War Emperor Palace has kicked an iron plate this time!"

"An iron plate? This is a steel plate!"

The area outside the mountain gate exploded with noise; shock, fear, excitement, and the joy of watching the chaos, various emotions intertwined.

Shen Yao was stunned!

Shen Qinghe was even more shocked!

The others of the Yi Gang did not expect that the Gu Family would kill the people of the War Emperor Palace just like that!

They originally thought that the people of the Gu Family would at most drive away the people of the War Emperor Palace!

They didn't expect that the man wouldn't say anything, and would kill the person from the War Emperor Palace with one sword strike!

That was a Saint King!

At the same time, it represented the War Emperor Palace!

Killing her directly, this undoubtedly offended the War Emperor Palace!

Looking at that man, he didn't take this matter seriously at all!

Jian Wuji sheathed his sword, expressionless: "The Gu Family allows no threats from anyone! Those who threaten us only have a dead end!"

This sentence was spoken very softly, but everyone in the audience heard it clearly!

Outside the mountain gate, tens of thousands of Cultivators were dead silent!

I don't know how long it had been, but finally someone in the crowd found their voice:

"The Gu Family doesn't even put the War Emperor Palace in their eyes!"

No one refuted, because everyone saw that the man in white killed a Saint King without even lifting an eyelid!

What this kind of strength meant, anyone with a little bit of brains could figure it out!

"From today on, the rules of the Eastern Region are afraid they will have to change." An old man muttered to himself.

"Change what change? The Gu Family is the rule!"

Amidst the discussions, the mindsets of those forces that were originally watching from the sidelines had completely changed!

Just a moment ago, some people were still hesitating whether to fight for those eighteen vassal spots; now they wished they could rush into the Gu Family immediately and kneel down to call them Daddy!

With such strong strength, where is being a vassal a humiliation?

It is clearly a great stroke of fortune!

A Sect Master of a second-rate Sect looked at the fairyland inside the great formation, his eyes full of longing: "You say, if one could become a vassal of the Gu Family, could one also Cultivate inside?"

The person next to him swallowed his saliva: "What are you thinking about? It's good enough to be able to become a vassal; you still want to go inside to Cultivate?"

"What if? The Gu Family is so generous, perhaps it's possible."

Before he could finish speaking.

A Loose Cultivator next to him sneered: "Generous? Their generosity is their own ability. What do you have to make them generous to you?"

That Sect Master opened his mouth, but couldn't speak.

Yeah, what did he have?

Just relying on his own meager Family fortune, even a single hair plucked by the Gu Family would be more valuable than their entire Sect combined!

Shen Qinghe knelt on the ground, trembling all over!

Not because of fear, but because of shock!

He had lived for thousands of years and had never seen such an expert!

Slashing a Saint King was like killing a chicken, without even blinking an eye!

What shocked him even more was that the Gu Family didn't put the War Emperor Palace in their eyes at all!

That kind of composure was not faked!

Shen Yao also knelt down, her eyes red: "Thank you, Gu Family, for the grace of saving our lives. All of the Yi Gang are willing to be beasts of burden for generations to repay the Gu Family!" The seventeen leaders behind her knelt down in unison, and the sound of kowtowing rang out in one piece.

Gu Chen stepped forward to help Shen Qinghe up, then helped Shen Yao up, his voice gentle: "Get up. The Gu Family does not do things that take advantage of others' precarious positions. Everything will be decided by the Old Ancestor."
