Chapter 178: Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, Encountering the System Again!

Under the influence of the jade disc of creation, Gu Shengge’s martial Demonic Technique was not particularly difficult.

This was a devouring type of martial art, like a watered-down version of the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Skill, capable of devouring the enemy's essence, blood, and martial Internal Energy. By continuously killing and devouring, one could continuously grow stronger, which was quite suitable for him.

The two entered the dilapidated courtyard, and Gu Shengge called out the young man.

“He Gousheng, you are fifteen years old. You lost your father, mother, and sister in your childhood, and you have wandered for five years, enduring all kinds of hardships. Today, I shall grant you a great fortune. From this day forward, besides seeking revenge, you shall be a pawn of mine. After you complete your revenge, your life may no longer belong to you. Are you willing?”

Gu Shengge never forced anyone and spoke frankly.

He Gousheng immediately knelt and bowed: “Benefactor, as long as I can get revenge, I am willing to pay any price!”

Gu Shengge nodded: “In that case, from today onwards, you shall change your name to He Qiang, and begin your new life!”

He Gousheng knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily.

Gu Shengge pointed a finger at his glabella, and the contents of the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Skill merged into his mind. Every move, every Meridian circulation, instantly became clear and understandable. His Ren and Du Meridians, and all his Meridians, were opened and widened. His martial Cultivation soared, reaching an incredible height in an instant, from Body Refining, Acquired, to Innate.

One more step and he could enter the Grandmaster Realm, already a well-known expert.

“You should comprehend it well! After comprehending, take your revenge and Cultivate your skill.”

Jun Mengqing had already cleaned out a side room and led Gu Shengge in.

“Benefactor, let’s settle down here for now!”

Gu Shengge was not picky and sat down to rest. Neither of them bothered with He Qiang; revenge was best carried out by his own hands.

The next day, Gu Shengge and Jun Mengqing opened their eyes simultaneously. They sensed two powerful auras, powerful only in the context of this world, estimated to be at the Great Grandmaster level.

Outside the door, He Qiang was also startled awake. He had been comprehending and Cultivating the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Skill, and the commotion outside quickly caught his attention.

Outside the door were two generals in armor, one in white robes and silver armor, tall and well-proportioned, holding a Dragon-patterned silver spear, heroic and handsome.

The other was in black iron armor and a red cloak, holding double halberds, with a fierce face like a wild beast ready to erupt at any moment.

He Qiang instantly understood that the visitors meant trouble.

“Who are you?!” he demanded. The two men’s gazes swept over him but did not take him seriously.

Instead, they stood there stiffly, as if waiting for something.

Gu Shengge and Jun Mengqing walked out together, their expressions normal as they saw the two tall figures outside.

“Who are you?” Jun Mengqing said coldly.

The young general in white robes and silver armor had eyes like lightning: “I am Zhao Zilong of Changshan!”

“Dian Wei of Chenliu!” The other also reported his name and origin.

Jun Mengqing had not heard of them and waited quietly for Gu Shengge’s instructions.

Gu Shengge, however, was somewhat astonished. Weren’t these Zhao Yun and Dian Wei from the Three Kingdoms! Historical figures from ancient Earth, how did they end up here?

He suddenly brightened, a thought dawned on him, and he understood: these two must have been summoned by a System.

“Is your master that Young Master?” Gu Shengge asked.

Dian Wei’s eyes turned cold: “The Young Master sent us to take your lives. Prepare yourselves, and get ready for the journey!”

Zhao Yun’s long spear also trembled, its cold light glinting.

Gu Shengge let out a soft laugh: “Serving such a person? Are you truly willing?”

A hint of hesitation flashed in both their eyes, but it quickly turned firm again.

Zhao Yun said in a deep voice: “Each serves his own master! If you truly have the strength, then kill us!”

They had already perished in their original world and were brought here by the System. Their task was to assist Young Master Xu Fan; as for anything else, they had no right to consider it.

Gu Shengge’s eyes were deep. Regardless of whether they were famous ancient generals or not, as long as they were enemies, they could all be killed!

Gu Shengge pointed a finger, and flames quickly ignited on their bodies. The scorching fire instantly engulfed them.

The two men activated their Internal Energy, trying to extinguish the flames, but they simply couldn’t.

They could only forcibly maintain their bodies from being instantly incinerated and rushed towards Gu Shengge, preparing for a final strike.

As they charged, Gu Shengge’s double pupils released the Law of space, and they were sealed within a spatial barrier, unable to escape.

The intense flames continued to burn, and the scorching high temperature melted their bodies, turning them into ashes.

Two Souls suddenly emerged, floating in the flames. They seemed to have finally found release, casting a grateful and relieved smile at Gu Shengge, and willingly fell into the flames below.

They had already died in history, but someone forcibly summoned them, forcing them to serve. Now, all traces were erased, and they returned to history.

After incinerating them, Gu Shengge said to He Qiang: “Now, it is time for you to go out and gain experience. On the day your Demonic Technique reaches Major Achievement, return for revenge. Kowtow three times here, and I will appear.”

After a burst of spatial energy transmission, He Qiang quickly disappeared from sight.

Xu Fan soon heard the news of Zhao Yun and Dian Wei’s demise from the System, and immediately became furious: “Two useless fools! Then send more people! Summon Bai Qi, Guan Yu, Xu Chu, Chang Yuchun, Li Wenzhong, Shi Potian, and Fenghuo Liancheng!”

In his rage, he sent out everyone he could summon and those rewarded by the System, repeatedly, but each time they returned defeated.

Moreover, most of the characters had no memory transmitted back to the System before their deaths, as if they had been deliberately erased.

“Host, it seems we have encountered a formidable opponent this time. The other party’s strength is not weak!”

“And we have already lost their markers. They might be escaping!”

Xu Fan scoffed: “Formidable? How formidable can he be? Can he be stronger than you?”

In his heart, the System was the supreme existence. As long as he had the System, he was invincible. If he wished, let alone Northern Liang City, he could overturn the entire Great Sheng Dynasty with ease!

As he said this, he didn’t notice that the System remained silent, not replying.

After a long while, he didn’t hear the System’s voice, and then he asked in confusion: “System, what’s wrong?”

“Host, this person is somewhat strange. He seems to be able to interfere with my Law. You still need to be careful.”

Xu Fan seemed not to have expected him to say such words. After a brief silence, he scoffed: “It doesn’t matter! They are all just people. My Young Master has three hundred thousand Northern Liang Iron Cavalry, will I be afraid of him?”

“Yuan Youzong! Mobilize fifty thousand iron cavalry, seal off Northern Liang City! Even if you turn Northern Liang City upside down, you must find those two people for this Young Master!”
