87: Chapter 87 Destroying Cangwu, Gu Xuan: Your cultivation is too low.

Elder Cangwu felt as if a great mountain was pressing down on him!

Nine auras pinned him firmly to the ground, like a worm being stepped on!

His eyes were about to pop out from the shock, and his whole body was trembling!

He wanted to run, but couldn't! He wanted to fight, but couldn't!

He raised his head and looked at the nine people.

Jian Wuji stood at the very front, looking down at him with a blank expression, as if he were looking at a dead dog!

Elder Cangwu's lips trembled, "You cannot kill me. I am willing to do anything. I can be your dog, even your servant!"

The group remained expressionless and silent; the power to decide did not rest with them, but in Ru Shuang's hands!

Elder Cangwu looked at Ru Shuang again, "Shuang'er, please say a word for me. I will agree to anything! I can be your servant! Anything is fine!"

Ru Shuang looked at him, her eyes devoid of sympathy, filled only with disgust.

Acting as if they were close, saying such things! It made her feel both physically and mentally uncomfortable!

He didn't realize he was wrong; he just knew he was going to die!

Jian Wuji retrieved two swords from the Void Realm and handed them to Ru Shuang and Old Patriarch Ru Feng, "You two do it."

The two took the swords, exchanged a look, and nodded simultaneously.

Elder Cangwu's face turned completely dark, "You cannot kill me! I am a member of the Demon Race! If I die, the Demon Race will not let you off! When the Devil Emperor descends, you will all die!"

Ru Shuang's footsteps faltered—not out of fear, but because she had heard one word!

The Demon Race!

She naturally knew quite a bit about the history of the Desolate Ancient Continent.

Hundreds of thousands of years ago, the Demon Race invaded on a massive scale, causing devastation and killing ninety percent of the population!

In the end, a Great Emperor used their own strength to repel the Demon Race and Seal the passage. That Great Emperor paid with their life for it!

She hadn't expected Elder Cangwu to have actually defected to the Demon Race, which made her feel even more disgusted!

To be able to strike against one's own kin! Such a person deserved to die!

"You defected to the Demon Race?" Ru Shuang's voice was cold.

Elder Cangwu thought she was afraid and hurriedly nodded, "Yes! I did defect to the Demon Race! Lord Devil Emperor has already promised me that once the passage opens, I will be a hero of the Demon Race! If you kill me, the Devil Emperor will not let you off! You will all die then!"

Ru Shuang looked at him, silent for a moment!

Elder Cangwu thought she was wavering and continued, "If you let me go, I can tell the Devil Emperor to spare you! You can continue living, continue staying here!"

"Shuang'er, you don't want to die, right?"

Ru Shuang, however, did not waste words. She raised her sword; she would never be soft-hearted toward such a person!

"Not only did you defect to the Demon Race, but you also wanted to betray the Human Race! You almost ruined my life, and you almost caused my grandfather to suffer Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering! You deserve to die!"

Elder Cangwu was shocked, "Are you crazy?! The Demon Race will not let you off!"

Ru Shuang thrust her sword out!

The sword light pierced through Elder Cangwu's throat!

Elder Cangwu's body stiffened, and he looked down at his throat!

His eyes were filled with unwillingness and confusion!

He didn't understand; he had brought up the Demon Race, yet she was not afraid!

"You!"

Before he could finish speaking!

The sword light surged, and a powerful force instantly engulfed his body! Wherever it passed, no trace was left behind!

Elder Cangwu's mouth was still moving, but he could make no sound!

He went from anger to despair, yet he still couldn't change anything, and then his eyes dissipated as well!

Three breaths later, Elder Cangwu completely vanished!

Without even leaving ashes behind, he turned directly into air!

Ru Shuang stood in place, her hand trembling. The wind blew through her hair, dispersing the lingering black aura in the air.

Old Patriarch Ru Feng walked over, "Girl, it's all over."

She leaned on her grandfather's shoulder, saying nothing.

Old Patriarch Ru Feng patted her back.

"However, it is not truly over yet."

Ru Shuang raised her head, looking at her grandfather through tear-blurred eyes.

"Elder Cangwu was just a dog; the wolves that are truly going to bite have not arrived yet!"

The Demon Race!

The Demon Race that almost destroyed the Desolate Ancient Continent hundreds of thousands of years ago.

They are coming!

Afterward, the nine people waved their hands, and the area outside the mountain gate returned to its original state, with no traces of the recent fight!

"Let's go back," Jian Wuji said, turning and walking into the Protective Formation.

The group followed behind and walked into the Gu Family.

The Protective Formation closed, and there was only the sound of the wind blowing through the branches.

Back Mountain.

"Ancestor." The three bowed simultaneously.

Gu Xuan opened his eyes and glanced at them.

"Resolved?"

Old Patriarch Ru Feng stepped forward, "Reporting to Ancestor, Elder Cangwu is dead, but before he died, he said that he had defected to the Demon Race, and that the Demon Race might be coming!"

Gu Xuan nodded, showing no reaction.

Old Patriarch Ru Feng was stunned, "Ancestor, the Demon Race?"

"I know," Gu Xuan interrupted him.

"They came hundreds of thousands of years ago, were beaten back, and now they want to return."

He spoke very casually, not taking it seriously at all.

If they dare to come, then we will just beat them again!

"No need to worry."

Old Patriarch Ru Feng glanced at the people in the Back Mountain, then looked at the unfathomable Ancestor before him, and understood!

Indeed, there was no need to worry!

Gu Xuan waved his hand, "Go, go soak in the Spiritual Liquid Pool. You have just recovered, and your bodies are still unstable."

Old Patriarch Ru Feng nodded, "Yes."

Ru Shuang also nodded and turned to leave.

"Wait," Gu Xuan called out to her.

Ru Shuang turned back.

Gu Xuan glanced at her, "Your performance today was not bad."

Ru Shuang bowed deeply, "Thank you, Ancestor."

Gu Xuan waved his hand and said no more.

Ru Shuang followed her grandfather and left.

Xiaoyao stood in place, not moving.

Gu Xuan glanced at him, "Something up?"

Xiaoyao was silent for a moment, "I would like to stay in the Gu Family."

Gu Xuan raised an eyebrow.

Xiaoyao smiled bitterly, "The faction I had back then was gone hundreds of thousands of years ago. Now, in the Desolate Ancient Continent, there are probably few people who know me. I have nowhere to go, and besides..."

He glanced at the Great Emperors in the Back Mountain.

"This place is quite good; it has everything."

He just wanted to freeload on these resources!

After all, he hadn't been this extravagant back in the day, and this place had everything!

The resources were good, and the Spiritual Qi was abundant; returning to his Peak would only be a matter of time!

Gu Xuan smiled, "Fine, then stay. It just so happens that the Enforcer Hall is lacking people."

Xiaoyao was stunned, "Enforcer Hall?"

"Mm, a place specializing in dealing with trouble. From now on, you are a member of the Enforcer Hall."

Xiaoyao's mouth twitched.

In his Peak period, he was a Great Emperor of the Seventh Heaven, a Great Emperor who saved the Desolate Ancient Continent hundreds of thousands of years ago, and now he had become an enforcer for the Enforcer Hall?

But it didn't seem like a bad deal!

Here, there are Great Emperors serving as protectors, Great Emperors as Divine Beasts, and then Great Emperors as enforcers!

And he was one of them!

Furthermore, the resources here were extremely abundant. Not to mention returning to his Peak, even going a step further would be easy!

"Thank you, Ancestor," Xiaoyao said, cupping his hands.

Gu Xuan glanced at Xiaoyao, his tone casual, "However, your cultivation is too low."

Xiaoyao's mouth twitched.

He was at the Peak of Quasi-Emperor, with a Physical Body at the Great Emperor level; placed outside, he was still an existence that could walk sideways!

But in front of this group of people in the Back Mountain, it was truly not enough!

"You need to recover quickly; these people are all stronger than you were at your Peak."

This was the truth, even though he didn't want to admit it!
