Gu Xue appeared at the site of the previous battle between him and Wu Xiao Shi. Nothing had changed there. The reconstruction had been neglected. It was estimated that the Second Elder did not want to rebuild anything there, or perhaps it was meant to commemorate that Gu Xue had died there. Thinking about that, Gu Xue felt his emotions surge. He immediately shot forward and arrived in front of the grand hall of the Gu Clan.He pushed the door open after receiving respect from the gate guards. When the door was pushed open, there were many people inside. Whatever they were discussing had nothing to do with Gu Xue anymore, because he was no longer bound to the Clan, but instead submitted under Wu Xiao Shi’s bond.Everyone clearly looked toward the door, staring at the figure walking closer. Shock appeared on their faces. The figure rumored to have been killed by Patriarch Gu Haochun. But what was the reality? That figure was truly none other than the First Elder, Gu Xue.“Did I miss som

"You are despicable, Haochun. I never expected that the cultivation you obtained was through doing something like this. You despicable devil in human form!" Gu Xue pointed while glaring sharply at Gu Haochun, who was now ten meters away from him."Why do you talk like a woman? Whatever path I choose is up to me. You have no right to comment," Gu Haochun retorted, unwilling to accept those words. ‘Who does he think he is? He’s only just stepped onto the Awakening Realm and already dares to lecture me.’Gu Haochun charged forward with a punch toward Gu Xue. The two engaged in a duel, exchanging blow for blow. Explosions echoed everywhere each time their fists collided. They looked like ordinary punches, yet they contained an understanding of the laws of nature, and both knew how to wield them well. Neither of them held back their attacks. Besides fists, there were also elbows and kicks released in countless exchanges.They fought at extreme speed, difficult to describe in words.The cav

Gu Haochun laughed wildly after seeing that Wu Xiao Shi’s strike, which had landed on his body, caused nothing except sending him flying. He wondered in his heart whether that punch had merely been for showing off skill. But then he reconsidered—only a fool would do such a thing.The arrogant old man stared at Wu Xiao Shi, who was smiling. He felt something was strange and thought again, ‘What happened to him? Has his brain been shaken loose and turned to mush, making him an idiot?’ Gu Haochun found nothing unusual about his body. After that, he no longer bothered thinking about it and immediately released a powerful surge of aura to intimidate his opponent.However, there was one thing he did not understand—the pleasure on Wu Xiao Shi’s face.Of course, if he had known about the three-colored lotus technique, he would have refused to take that hit. It did not have much impact on the outer body, but it affected the inside. Wu Xiao Shi knew that the old man’s body was covered with hard

Hundreds of years passed inside the cultivation tower within the soul world. Countless days had gone by for Wu Xiao Shi in the real world. At this moment, he could feel that his strength had surged tremendously. If he could break through this time, he would possess the power of the Awakening Realm, first stage. He had undergone several breakthroughs before, and after advancing one stage, he would immediately cultivate again, continuing like that until he reached the peak—the ninth stage of the Birth Realm. No one would have guessed that in just one year of his closed-door cultivation he had reached such an opportunity. Others would not be able to comprehend his method, except for Wu Xiao Shi himself and those closest to him. With the space-time method he had mastered, he was now only waiting for the right moment to step through the first stage. He had already resolved that to rescue his mother from the Liu Clan, he must at least possess the strength of the first stage of the Awaken

Swoosh! A whistling sound cut through the air as an attack was unleashed. Two figures floated above, smiling as they watched the strike descend like a meteor falling from outer space. Everyone looked up at the sky. A clear threat could be felt, and a sense of helplessness arose in the hearts of some as something so fast bore down upon them. “There’s an attack!” someone shouted in warning. Immediately afterward, hundreds of people moved swiftly. They had anticipated this, so they had prepared everything in advance. A formation activated as they injected their energy into the sky. A thin yellow dome of formation was created, enveloping the mountains and expanding outward—enough to protect everyone attending the gathering. Bang! The violent collision could be seen from both above and below. Everyone beneath watched anxiously, hoping the formation would endure. Only when it successfully withstood the devastating strike did they breathe a little easier. However, that did not remove th
