Book 2: Chapter 39: Gu Residence Fort

In a mountain forest within the Chen Nation, Nine-Five Island:

Rumble…!

“Ah!”

“Ah!”

“Don’t come over!”

“I was not involved!”

Miserable cries rang out along with the sounds of fighting. However, the fighting soon ended.

The evil men bound dozens of cultivators and brought them before Gu Hai.

Chen Tianshan showed an incredibly unsightly expression as he said, “Milord, do you recall the war between the Chen Nation and the Song Nation? Back then, the cause of the war was the discovery of this spirit stone mine. Eventually, the two sects agreed to decide its ownership by having the two mundane nations fight a war. In the end, Milord came up with the Song Extermination Plan and helped us obtain an overwhelming victory; thus, this inferior-grade spirit stone mine belongs to my Clear River Sect.”

“These are First Song Sect disciples?” Gu Hai looked at the dozens of bound First Song Sect disciples with slightly narrowed eyes.

“Speak. What happened to my Clear River Sect? Why are you here guarding this spirit stone mine?” Chen Tianshan questioned with a scowl.

“We don’t know. This was the sect master’s order!” the group of First Song Sect disciples immediately replied.

“The First Song Sect Master? Song Pingsheng?” Chen Tianshan’s expression changed.

“What about the Clear River Sect disciples originally standing guard here?” Gao Xianzhi asked.

“There were none. There was no one here when we came!” that First Song Sect disciple immediately answered.

Gu Hai’s group glared at the First Song Sect disciples. Then, they interrogated these disciples. However, there were no results.

“Milord, something might have happened to the Clear River Sect!” Chen Tianshan showed an unsightly expression.

“Chen Tianshan, bring the Earth Legion to the Clear River Sect to investigate the situation. I’ll return home. Come to the Gu Residence to find me if there’s any problem!” Gu Hai instructed.

“Yes! Thank you, Milord!” Chen Tianshan said gratefully.

“There’s no need to thank me. The Clear River Sect Master helped me greatly back then. Bring this group of First Song Sect disciples with you,” Gu Hai instructed.

“Yes!” Chen Tianshan answered.

Under Chen Tianshan’s command, the hundreds of people of the Earth Legion rushed through the forest, bringing the First Song Sect disciples with them.

However, Gu Hai went to the spirit stone mine. There was a cave there with marks on the walls, looking like it had been dug out. Many inferior-grade spirit stones appeared inlaid into the wall.

“Milord, this is a spirit stone mine of the lowest level, also the most problematic one. One needs to be careful when extracting the spirit stones. Too much force can not only cause the mountain to collapse but also shatter the spirit stones. The shattered spirit stones would be worthless,” Scar explained.

“Search around for dug-out spirit stones and take them away. Wait for me outside the cave!” Gu Hai said.

“Yes!”

Everyone quickly went around to collect spirit stones.

However, Gu Hai reached to his chest and slowly pulled out the Life Ender Saber.

Schik!

When the Life Ender Saber appeared, black energy spread out.

“Can you consume Spiritual Energy from spirit stones as well? Let’s give it a try!” Gu Hai said after a deep breath.

Shing!

Gu Hai stabbed the saber into the cave wall.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, surging black energy came out of the Life Ender Saber and penetrated the cave wall.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

More black energy continuously appeared and entered the various spirit stones in the cave wall.

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

The spirit stones in the cave wall immediately crumbled into a powder as surging Spiritual Energy rushed to the Life Ender Saber.

Soon, the black energy returned to the Life Ender Saber. Clearly, it had consumed the Spiritual Energy in all the spirit stones.

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

The spirit stones in the mountain turning into powder loosened the rocks and soil of the mountain.

Shing!

When Gu Hai pulled out the bone saber, strong energy rushed into his body.

Buzz!

Gu Hai’s body trembled slightly, but he did not make any breakthroughs in his cultivation.

“There were too few spirit stones,” Gu Hai sighed softly.

One-thousandth of the spirit stones in an entire spirit stone mine could not even help him advance a layer.

Whoosh!

Gu Hai returned the Life Ender Saber into his body. Then, he strolled out of the cave.

Rumble…!

The moment Gu Hai exited the cave, the mountain that lost the support of the spirit stones crumbled.

The surrounding evil men revealed shocked expressions.

“Let’s go. I have a stud farm in the town ahead. We can reach my home after riding for at most three days,” Gu Hai said.

“Yes!” Everyone looked at the leveled mountain before quickly leaving with Gu Hai.

——

Gu Residence, Hulao Pass:

Before Gu Hai returned home, news of the Great Feng Mafia Family had already arrived.

The cultivators waiting there to lay a trap gaped in shock.

“You…you…you’re joking, right? Gu Hai subdued three thousand evil men?”

“What did you say? Gu Hai destroyed the Great Feng Mafia Family?”

“That’s impossible! How could he lay the Heavenly Saber Death Match and the Twenty-Eight Line-Pair World Ritual Array on Nine-Five Island?”

“Gu Hai deterred a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator from approaching him? You must be lying!”

“Damn! Do you think that I am a fool? How could Gu Hai kill twenty thousand cultivators on a whim?”

Countless cultivators felt dread in their hearts, their previous confidence disappearing. When the miserable story of the Great Feng Mafia Family arrived, no one believed it at first.

How could this be possible? Everyone here had clearly investigated Gu Hai. Just a year ago, Gu Hai was still in the Acquired Realm. How could he be this capable?

However, this information did not come from just one cultivator. Many were telling the same story. Furthermore, some of these cultivators were good friends of the people waiting at the Gu Residence. These people would not lie to them.

Gu Hai destroyed the Great Feng Mafia Family? Gu Hai defeated a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator? Gu Hai killed twenty thousand cultivators? Gu Hai has three thousand-odd evil men subordinates?

The various reports stunned many people.

Are we waiting here to trap Gu Hai? However, the one coming is not easy to deal with. Instead of us trapping him, we might be the ones trapped.

Capturing Gu Hai to snatch the Century Lifespan Immortality Peach? We need to be alive to do that first.

This Gu Hai kills on a whim. There were more than twenty thousand people, but he just killed them without blinking.

Some people already started thinking of leaving. However, the eyes of some people turned bloodshot.

“My sworn brother died in the Heavenly Saber Death Match? I must take revenge for my sworn brother!”

“My junior brother died in that ritual array. Gu Hai, since you killed my junior brother, I will kill your sons!”

Countless cultivators felt immense fury. However, Gu Hai had been so overbearing and ferocious in his massacre that they did not dare do anything despite their outrage.

Gu Hai killed twenty thousand cultivators because they wanted to snatch his Century Lifespan Immortality Peach. If they captured his sons, would it result in endless retribution from him?

Twenty thousand cultivators, their corpses would pile up as high as a mountain. Everyone felt a chill just thinking about it.

Their anticipation of Gu Hai’s arrival slowly turned into fear.

The atmosphere around the Gu Residence turned very strange.

Some of the people wanting to take revenge seemed somewhat hesitant, as though waiting for someone to rally them to attack together.

Moonlight shone on the Gu Residence.

Now, the Gu Residence was several times larger than before, having been expanded greatly. There were countless new buildings, but there was a very special one that looked like a circular fort. At this moment, Gu Qin and Gu Han stood at the top of this fort, looking into the distance as the night wind blew at them.

Incredibly vast open land with flowers and grass surrounded this fort.

The two brothers, Gu Qin and Gu Han, leaned against the railings as they looked around while listening to the information that their subordinates scouted out.

“Good. Adoptive Father is returning. Now that he killed twenty thousand cultivators, the people waiting outside my Gu Residence must be shaking in their boots, right?” Gu Han laughed.

Gu Qin also felt happy as he said, “Adoptive Father is returning. Furthermore, he is coming back with three thousand-odd evil men. Those insignificant people waiting to trap Adoptive Father are going to be disappointed.”

“However, First Brother, some of the people outside are getting restless.” Gu Han frowned.

“Now that there’s news of Adoptive Father, he should be returning soon. There’s no need to worry. We just need to stand guard here for a while longer. Furthermore, we have built this huge fort here according to Adoptive Father’s design. They should not be able to barge in,” Gu Qin said as he looked out.

Gu Han nodded and smiled. “Should we learn from Adoptive Father and hang a sign outside?”

“That’s good. All who barge in will die!” Gu Qin smiled.

——

Early the next day:

The cultivators surrounding the Gu Residence woke up and were startled when they looked in the direction of the Gu Residence fort.

The people of the Gu Residence had hung up a sign in front of the fort at some point in time.

“We have already laid ritual arrays in the Gu Residence. All who barge in will die!”

Nearly all the cultivators felt shocked when they saw this sign.

“What kind of joke is this? Ritual array? Do you think you laid a Twenty-Eight Line-Pair World Ritual Array like at the Great Feng Mafia Family?”

“Only Gu Hai knows how to set up that ritual array. He learned it in the Innate Puzzle World; the Gu Residence cannot possibly have it!”

“There is no fog at all; the surroundings appear clear. How could there be a ritual array?”

Many cultivators did not believe it. No, it was more like there was no way to believe it. Could this be any faker? They could see clearly. Where was the fog? Where was the ritual array?

Even so, many cultivators did not dare to risk it. After all, the story from the Great Feng Mafia Family was too frightening.

Twenty thousand people killed without anyone spared, completely massacred.

Was there really a ritual array?

Some of the cultivators who wanted revenge hesitated, up until one hundred white-clad cultivators arrived from afar.

“First Song Sect disciples? Why are they here?” someone said in shock.

The leading First Song Sect disciple looked coldly at the Gu Residence.

A cultivator quickly walked out of the crowd. He seemed to have been waiting here for a long time. He asked respectfully, “Martial Uncle Bai, why are you all here?”

“Where are Gu Qin and Gu Han?” the leading white-clad cultivator countered.

“Ah?”

“The sect master issued orders to capture Gu Hai’s two adoptive sons, Gu Qin and Gu Han,” the leading white-clad cultivator said coldly.

“Ah? Martial Uncle Bai, this disciple has been standing guard here since three months ago. I have been keeping watch all this while. Gu Qin and Gu Han are in that strange fort. However, there is a sign outside the fort. It seems dangerous,” that person said carefully.

As that person spoke, the group arrived in the area around the fort. Many cultivators looked over curiously.

First Song Sect disciples? Are they here to capture Gu Qin and Gu Han?

“All who barge in will die? Hahahahaha! What a joke. They are not even in the Innate Realm, but they want to use this to scare us?” the leading white-clad cultivator scoffed coldly.

“That’s not it. Martial Uncle Bai, I heard that Gu Hai had hung the same sign back in the Great Feng Mafia Family!” that person said worriedly.

The leading white-clad cultivator’s eyelids twitched. Naturally, he had heard about what happened at the Great Feng Mafia Family. The sect master sent him to capture Gu Hai’s adopted sons because of that news.

However, nothing seemed to hinder their vision. How could there be a ritual array?

“What a joke. Where is the ritual array? Are they scaring us? It’s one thing for Gu Hai to scare us, but his two insignificant kids actually dare to do it as well?” That leading white-clad cultivator snorted coldly. Not believing the sign, he gathered the group of First Song Sect disciples and prepared to barge in.

Gu Qin and Gu Han also received word of this. At this moment, they stood on top of the fort, looking at the noisy crowd in the distance with slightly narrowed eyes.

“First Brother, they are going to try?” Gu Han asked.

“If they are capable, then bring it on!” A cold look flashed in Gu Qin’s eyes.
