403: Dongzhou Disaster

Seeing Gu Liangyuan in this state, she was no longer in a hurry to attack him.

You, Gu Liangyuan, aren't you arrogant?

This time, I will make you humiliate yourself in front of the entire Eastern Continent!

Just like that, the Gathering Flowers Person allowed Gu Liangyuan to approach her.

Looking at Gu Liangyuan, whose eyes were filled with lust, the Gathering Flowers Person clutched her chest and retreated two steps.

If a beauty had such a posture, everyone would find it endearing.

But the Gathering Flowers Person was in the form of a seventy-year-old woman; such a posture was nauseating.

"What do you want to do?"

The Gathering Flowers Person repeatedly pushed away, feigning panic.

Gu Liangyuan raised his left hand and looked at the Gathering Flowers Person:

"Do you see my left hand?"

The Gathering Flowers Person's expression remained unchanged, only thinking that this was a small trick by Gu Liangyuan to express his affection.

Imagining Gu Liangyuan, the most handsome man in the world, confessing his love to her, the Gathering Flowers Person somehow felt a faint sense of excitement.

She nodded lightly and replied softly:

"I see it."

Just as the Gathering Flowers Person looked at Gu Liangyuan's left hand, Gu Liangyuan's right hand moved.

Slap!

A clean, crisp slap landed on the Gathering Flowers Person's face:

"My right hand hits harder!"

At this moment, there was no trace of lust in Gu Liangyuan's eyes.

All that remained was endless clarity.

His dark eyes seemed capable of devouring everything in the world.

The Gathering Flowers Person's reaction was extremely fast; the moment Gu Liangyuan's palm landed on her face, she reacted and tried to retreat.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Before she could pull back, she felt a sharp pain in her chest.

Looking down, she saw the tip of a sword protruding from her chest.

In the eyes of outsiders, the Gathering Flowers Person was now impaled by a blood-red treasured sword, which had entered from her back and pierced through her chest.

The Gathering Flowers Person tried to circulate the spiritual power within her body to escape, but found that the sword embedded in her chest was continuously drawing her strength.

Spiritual power, Lifespan, Physical Body... all usable power was beyond her control, surging into the Nine Kill Sword, rendering her unable to circulate even a speck of spiritual power.

Slowly raising her head, she looked at Gu Liangyuan, who was wiping his right hand, and she finally understood that Gu Liangyuan had not been affected from beginning to end.

She had lived a stable life for too long and had forgotten the days of fighting in the Upper Realm.

Even with the lesson of the Fisherman's death before her, she still hadn't maintained full caution.

Regret!

Alas, regret now was merely futile.

Under the Nine Kill Sword's Devour, her consciousness gradually blurred.

Gradually, a generation of Loose Immortal fell.

Gu Liangyuan reached out, and the Nine Kill Sword returned to his hand.

Mo Chen, who had remained still below, also suddenly stood up.

"This move, A Finger Snap that Crumbles Heaven!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his finger, and an aura of destruction immediately permeated the air.

In the blink of an eye, lightning, hurricanes, and dark clouds appeared together.

Heavenly flames fell, the earth trembled, and a sense of fear lingered in the hearts of many Disciples.

Mo Chen waved his hand again, and before the full power could manifest, these anomalies disappeared.

He flew to Gu Liangyuan's front:

"Thank you, Master, for your guidance; only then could I comprehend such a Great Divine Power."

Looking at the excited expression on Mo Chen's face, Gu Liangyuan slowly shook his head:

"The youth is unteachable."

With that, he turned and left, leaving Mo Chen with a bewildered expression.

Did he misunderstand?

Did he fail to grasp Revered Master's true intention?

He pondered this question as he walked towards Forget-Love Peak.

In his contemplative state, he felt the whole world quiet down, ignoring everything and completely immersing himself in his thoughts.

Even the crowd's bowing and shouting "Respectfully send off Dao Venerable" was subconsciously ignored by him.

Gu Liangyuan's last words to Mo Chen naturally held no deep meaning, nor did he truly look down on Mo Chen.

It was purely because Mo Chen's Comprehension Ability was too effortless, so he decided to increase the difficulty for him.

Gu Liangyuan felt that, with Mo Chen's Comprehension Ability, no matter what he said, Mo Chen would be able to comprehend some Dao.

The onlookers, especially those Elders with Disciples, had very complex expressions as they watched this scene.

No, creating one's own lineage, comprehending a Great Divine Power in the Nascent Soul Realm—and this is still considered unteachable?

Then what are our Disciples?

Are they a joke?

However, very quickly, Gu Liangyuan's voice pulled their thoughts back:

"Everyone, you haven't guessed wrong; these three are indeed three Loose Immortals!"

Although everyone had already anticipated it, hearing this truth from Gu Liangyuan's mouth still invigorated them!

Cultivators in the Lower Realm generally did not know the situation of the Immortal Realm; their lifelong aspiration was merely Immortal Ascension.

Immortal!

In the Cultivation World, it was Supreme authority, an unshakeable existence!

Even the Three Great Dynasties could not do it!

Yet, such an existence was easily blocked by the Eastern Continent's Grand Array and easily slain by Gu Liangyuan.

Recalling the scenes of Gu Liangyuan forcing the Shepherd away and slaying the Gathering Flowers Person, everyone felt that their Alliance Leader's victory was seemingly a complete crush.

Although they didn't know how strong Gu Liangyuan was now, they knew that the stronger Gu Liangyuan was, the safer they would be.

Gu Liangyuan's words continued:

"But why did these three Loose Immortals want to kill Mo Chen?"

The somewhat restless crowd immediately quieted down.

No one knew the answer.

Gu Liangyuan quickly answered their doubts:

"Because behind them stand the Three Great Dynasties!"

"Then the question arises again, why do these Three Great Dynasties want to kill Mo Chen?"

Without waiting for an answer, Gu Liangyuan continued:

"Because behind the Three Great Dynasties stands the Immortal Court!"

"In ancient times, there was only one Heavenly Court in the Immortal Realm."

"One day, for reasons unknown, a great catastrophe occurred between heaven and earth."

"During this catastrophe, the gods of the Heavenly Court died in battle, and the human world was torn apart!"

"Although the gods of the Heavenly Court died, they left behind their Legacy."

"The inheritors, carrying the Legacy, descended to the mortal realm and established various Sects and Holy Lands."

"Jiang Wei, I presume you are all familiar with her; she was once the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Feet Sect, and now my maidservant."

"Their Heavenly Feet Sect is where the Legacy of the Ancient Immortal Barefoot Great Immortal lies."

"For example, the Peach Willow Sect, their eye and ear techniques are famous in the Eastern Continent."

"They are the Legacy left by two great divine generals."

"Taiyi, Due, Yaochi, Taishang, all are like this!"

"After the catastrophe, some people in the Immortal Realm also survived."

"Before this catastrophe, these people were inconspicuous nobodies."

"They didn't even have the qualifications to go to the battlefield."

"Yet, these people, relying on the treasures left behind by the ancient Heavenly Court, one by one achieved success in their Cultivation."

"However, after these people achieved success in their Cultivation, instead of thinking about how to restore the Heavenly Court, they occupied it and established their own Immortal Court."

"They regard us as remnants of the former dynasty!"

"Do you think that after cultivating painstakingly to the Peak of Undergoing Tribulation, you can successfully Ascend?"

"No! This is the Immortal Court's biggest lie!"

"These people, as soon as they Ascend to the Immortal Realm, will be besieged by heavenly soldiers and hacked to death!"

Boom!

Thunder out of a clear sky!

Gu Liangyuan's words stunned everyone!

Most of the Undergoing Tribulation Elders also did not know this truth.

Learning that their lifelong aspiration was merely death, they felt as if the sky had fallen.

No one doubted the truth of Gu Liangyuan's words, due to Gu Liangyuan's authority in the hearts of the Eastern Continent Cultivators.

How could such a selfless person possibly deceive us?

Those few Grand Elders of Due Holy Land, who had previously felt somewhat aggrieved about being subordinate to Taishang, had their last bit of grievance vanish at this moment.

Their Due Holy Land, countless Ancestral Masters had Ascended, yet not a single one had returned to the Lower Realm or sent any message.

They had long held doubts in their hearts.

Gu Liangyuan's words instantly confirmed to them that it was the truth of the matter.

But could they defeat the Immortal Court?

No.

Their only reliance was Gu Liangyuan, the man who repeatedly created miracles.

Only Gu Liangyuan could shoulder this great responsibility.
