33: The secret technique backfired, and the Saint Elder of the Cloud Heaven Sect died.
"You little brat, your wings have hardened now, daring to mock your old man?" Gu Feiyang heard this and deliberately put on a stern face.
In reality, his heart was already blooming with joy.
Now, Gu Chen not only had a terrifying sect as his backing, but his cultivation had also risen to Heaven Soul Peak.
His Gu family in White Mist City no longer needed to fear anyone.
"Dad, how could I dare to mock you? I'm doing this for your own good. If you overthink and damage your brain, I can't bear that responsibility," Gu Chen replied with a smile.
He discovered a benefit.
That is, after his cultivation increased, Gu Feiyang's words were gentler than before.
Otherwise, for a playful remark like that just now, Gu Feiyang would have already knocked him on the head.
"Alright, stop your glib talk here."
Gu Feiyang turned his gaze to Mu Xueqing and Qin Fei'er.
These two girls Gu Chen brought back had remained extremely calm during the recent incident, clearly indicating they were not simple.
"Chen'er, who are these two young ladies?" Gu Feiyang asked.
"Dad, they are my junior sisters, Mu Xueqing and Qin Fei'er. Both also have Heaven Soul Peak cultivation," Gu Chen introduced Mu Xueqing and the other to Gu Feiyang.
"Hiss, both are Heaven Soul Peak?" Gu Feiyang was shocked again.
He had thought their cultivation would be slightly lower.
He didn't expect the junior sisters and senior brother to have the same cultivation.
However, thinking about Gu Chen breaking through to Heaven Soul Peak in just over ten days, he felt relieved.
Perhaps they deliberately stayed at this realm.
"Juniors greet Uncle Gu!"
Mu Xueqing and Qin Fei'er, seeing Gu Chen introduce them, quickly bowed to Gu Feiyang.
Although Gu Feiyang was only at the eighth level of Soul Manifestation, he was still Gu Chen's father.
So they dared not show any disrespect.
"No, no, I am the junior. This junior greets the three seniors. It is truly an honor for my Gu family to have the three seniors grace us with their presence." Gu Feiyang repeatedly waved his hands, hurriedly bowing to Mu Xueqing and the other, as well as Night Owl.
This was the rule of the continent: the capable are teachers, regardless of age.
If he were to accept it gladly at this moment, it would be presumptuous.
"Uncle Gu, you mustn't! We are as close as siblings with Senior Brother Gu, how can we let you bow to us?"
"That's right, Uncle Gu, our relationship as fellow disciples is excellent, we don't bother with such rules."
"Uncle Gu, please get up quickly."
Seeing Gu Feiyang actually bowing to the three of them.
Night Owl and the others were stunned and quickly helped Gu Feiyang up.
"It's fine, it's fine, this is proper."
Gu Feiyang straightened up and said to Gu Chen, "Chen'er, since the three seniors are guests at my Gu family, you must treat them well and not neglect them."
"Understood, Dad. We fellow disciples don't have so many rules, so you don't need to worry about it."
Gu Chen agreed and leaned into Gu Feiyang's ear, whispering, "Dad, since you're so polite, why don't you bow to me? My cultivation is higher than yours, so I'm also your senior."
Upon hearing this, Gu Feiyang's face turned green with anger.
"You unfilial son, I'll give you a good beating today! You want me to call you senior? I'll make you a hunchback today!"
Gu Feiyang rolled up his sleeves and charged towards Gu Chen.
From that posture, he wouldn't stop until Gu Chen was beaten into a hunchback.
"Haha, Dad, times have changed. You can't hit me, I'm not playing with you anymore."
Gu Chen easily dodged Gu Feiyang's attack.
He called Night Owl and the others and walked out of the Gu family mansion.
He was now preparing to eradicate the Chi family.
Since the enmity had been forged, he had to cut the weeds and pull out the roots, otherwise, it would be a big trouble for the Gu family.
Just as Gu Chen went to destroy the City Lord's Mansion.
On the main peak of Yuntian Sect in Lingzhou.
A green-robed old man with a youthful face and white hair, a Saint at the fifth level, floated in the sky, roaring furiously.
"Who, who killed my Wei'er?"
"This old man will definitely find you, grind your bones to dust, and avenge my good grandson!!"
The old man's face was crazed. He took out a shattered Soul Tablet, broken into several pieces.
He performed his Saint's secret technique, preparing to pinpoint the location of the murderer who killed his grandson.
His good grandson, Yang Wei, had the potential to become a Saint.
To protect Yang Wei, he had even dispatched a Heavenly Venerate expert to guard him.
Unexpectedly, after only a few days of venturing out from the sect, he was killed.
"Hiss, who is so bold as to kill Elder Yang's grandson?"
"Could it be the Yanri Sect and the Qingxia Sect? In these nearby Twelve Provinces, only they have such strength."
"It's most likely them. Senior Brother Yang Wei had a Heavenly Venerate expert guarding him. Besides the Yanri Sect and the Qingxia Sect, who else would dare to touch Senior Brother Yang Wei?"
Below the old man, a large number of Yuntian Sect disciples gathered.
They all looked curiously at the old man in the sky, discussing in low voices.
And the Yuntian Sect Master and other Saint Elders were also awakened.
They appeared near the old man, awaiting the outcome.
If it truly was done by people from the Yanri Sect and the Qingxia Sect, they would definitely not stand by and do nothing.
"Buzz!"
Under the old man's urging.
A mysterious power flew out from the shattered Soul Tablet.
It intended to break through space and pinpoint the murderer who killed his grandson.
But at this moment.
The power of the old man's secret technique, as if encountering some terrifying existence, suddenly collapsed.
Then.
An inexplicable force backfired towards the old man.
"No, this is actually the Power of Rules!!"
The old man's expression was terrified.
Without even a chance to resist, he instantly exploded into a shower of blood, which landed on the faces of the Yuntian Sect disciples below.
"Heh, a piece of trash dares to use a secret technique to track my disciple's whereabouts?"
Jiang Chen, enjoying life far away in Qingtian Sect, let out a disdainful laugh.
The old man's secret technique had just attempted to pinpoint Night Owl's location.
He had divine sense on Night Owl and the others; how could he let this trash succeed?
"What's going on? Why did Elder Yang explode?"
"I don't know, maybe Elder Yang is performing a magic trick for us."
"It's so exciting, this trick is very realistic."
The Yuntian Sect disciples below touched the bloodstains on their faces, looking pleased.
They didn't expect Elder Yang to perform a magic trick for them while investigating the murderer; he truly was a good elder.
"Shut up, all of you get back to cultivating!!"
The Yuntian Sect Master heard the disciples' words and was so angry his mouth twisted.
A dignified Saint Elder of the Yuntian Sect, killed by a secret technique backlash, was actually mistaken by the disciples for performing a magic trick.
If it weren't for the fact that they were all Yuntian Sect disciples.
He would have also blasted these people into a bloody mist.
"Yes, yes, Sect Master!!"
Feeling the Yuntian Sect Master's rage.
All the disciples below were startled and quickly flew towards their respective cave dwellings.
Fearing that a moment's delay would result in punishment from the Yuntian Sect Master.
As for whether Elder Yang was performing a magic trick or truly exploded, they could no longer care.
"Everyone, what do you think of Elder Yang's death?" After the disciples left, the Yuntian Sect Master stared at the spot where Elder Yang exploded and asked the other elders.
That backlash force just now was truly terrifying.
It instantly killed Elder Yang, a Saint at the fifth level.
They simply had no time, nor dared, to intervene and save him.
