307: Chapter 307 Exposure

The Cultivator before them was overestimating the three of them far too much.

Any treasure he was eyeing was most likely an extraordinary one!

Even if he succeeded in the end, it was impossible for the three of them to survive.

However, if they were captured after a failure, perhaps the Old Ancestor could remove the Restriction in their minds!

Situ Xing's uncle asked, "So?"

"Why are you telling us this, Fellow Daoist?"

He still wanted to figure out what Gu Changan was actually planning.

Gu Changan glanced at them. "I'm telling you so you'll have some idea of what's going on."

"Your lives won't be in danger!"

"Even if you're caught by your Old Ancestor, you'll most likely just be punished."

"After all, you are his blood relatives!"

Hearing this, Situ Xing suddenly understood.

He shouted, "I'll go!"

"I'll go! Grandfather dotes on me the most!"

His eyes flickered; it seemed he realized that this was a way to escape!

Gu Changan shook his head. "No! What if you never return?"

"Your Old Ancestor might even be able to remove my Restriction!"

"I'm not that stupid!"

"The difficulty lies in the fact that you three aren't his closest kin."

"If any of you three die, the other two might not care!"

"So my ultimate target is your Clan Leader; his son is in my hands."

"He will find a way to steal it successfully."

"In exchange for his son's life!"

"What do you think of my idea?"

Situ Xing was shocked. He was going to involve his father too?

Wouldn't his own matters be exposed then?

He would have harmed two uncles and now his father!

Once this was over, he would be skinned alive.

He might not even have a chance at the positions of Clan Leader or Sect Master anymore.

After all, who would choose a troublemaker to be the Clan Leader?

Wouldn't that cause widespread panic?

Situ Xing's two uncles were secretly delighted; others might not know the Clan Leader.

But the two of them knew him all too well.

He was meticulous and cautious.

Otherwise, why would the position of Clan Leader have been passed to him?

Furthermore, he had life-saving measures given by the Old Ancestor, which were far stronger than what they had.

Any one of them could break free from this Cultivator's control.

And thus draw out the Old Ancestor!

Did the Cultivator before them know this?

They then glanced at their surroundings; although they didn't know where they were, they were definitely no longer in Blood Refining Valley.

It's over!

The two were startled!

They could only pray that the Clan Leader would be more alert and see through the scheme quickly!

The Cultivator asking about their situation actually meant he already had a plan and was merely informing them!

As they expected, Gu Changan said, "You, yes you!"

"Hurry up and notify your father!"

"After all, you're already quite familiar with doing this!"

Situ Xing quickly looked at his two uncles, but they showed no expression.

It seemed they had tacitly consented!

Out of options, Situ Xing had to pick up the Token again and begin communicating.

He suddenly looked up and asked, "What should I say?"

"Where is this place?"

Gu Changan glanced at him. "Improvise!"

Situ Xing thought for a moment. "Father! I'm trapped, and I don't know where I am!"

"I hope Father can come and save me!"

After a while, a cold voice came from the other side: "Find your uncles!"

Situ Xing was startled; it seemed disturbing his father's seclusion had displeased him.

"My two uncles are also trapped here!"

"So I only hope Father can come to the rescue!"

There was a period of silence on the other end, lasting about three breaths.

"Let your uncles speak!"

Situ Xing's two uncles quickly leaned in. "Yes, Big Brother!"

"We're trapped. We don't know what's going on; we just can't get out!"

They were just about to tell their Clan Leader brother to bring more people.

But then they met Gu Changan's cold gaze.

Their words were instantly swallowed back down.

After all, they didn't want to die; if they just waited a bit longer, they might survive.

They didn't want to fail at this critical juncture.

Gu Changan stepped forward, took their Tokens, and threw them aside.

He watched the Token vibrate continuously on the ground, but no one went to pick it up.

Gu Changan's goal had been achieved; now he just had to wait for the fish to take the bait.

He just didn't know how many people the Patriarch of the Situ Family would bring.

It would definitely be hard to take them by surprise this time, so he would have to resort to a direct assault.

If he could eventually control the target, then the outcome would be good.

If not, he would see how things developed then.

Half an hour passed, and the sound of something breaking through the air at the Golden Core Stage came from the sky.

A powerful spiritual pressure hovered in mid-air, continuously scanning the Treehouse below with Golden Core Stage Divine Sense.

The movements of Gu Changan and the others were scanned clearly.

Situ Xing and the other two all showed joyful expressions. Their Clan Leader had arrived; their backer was here!

They all looked at Gu Changan, hoping to see panic on his face.

The Patriarch of the Situ Family scanned with his Divine Sense and found no danger below.

There was only one outsider at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage.

The other three were standing obediently in place. What kind of trick were they playing?

He confidently landed his escape light and appeared at the door of the Treehouse.

"What? You've joined forces to trick me into coming here for what?"

Situ Xing and the others were angry but didn't dare speak, so they all turned their eyes toward Gu Changan again.

At this moment, the Patriarch of the Situ Family also looked at Gu Changan.

"Is it because of you?"

"You convinced the three of them to cooperate with you in this act?"

Gu Changan smiled and nodded. "Clan Leader Situ, a pleasure to meet you!"

"I have a request this time!"

As he spoke, he prepared to Move closer.

Unexpectedly, Situ Xing and the others nearby shouted, "Watch out!"

The Patriarch of the Situ Family instantly became alert and immediately moved to capture Gu Changan.

Seeing the three of them ruining things, Gu Changan immediately activated the Blood Soul Restriction in their minds.

The three of them collapsed to the ground, writhing in agony.

After taking a palm strike from the opponent, Gu Changan directly revealed his Middle Golden Core Stage cultivation.

The Patriarch of the Situ Family was both shocked and furious. "Where did this Loose Cultivator come from?"

"How dare you control people of the Situ Family?"

He immediately prepared for a direct assault, his right hand condensing a fierce Ghost Claw that lunged toward Gu Changan's neck.

Gu Changan was not to be outdone, directly channeling the Spiritual Qi in his Dantian to condense a large gray handprint and strike back.

The two Moves collided in mid-air and neutralized each other.

Seeing that neither could overpower the other.

The Patriarch of the Situ Family snorted coldly and took out a palm-sized small banner.

It emitted waves of Yin Qi, giving Gu Changan a terrifying feeling, as if he were facing a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator.

Gu Changan recognized it. It was actually the ten thousand souls banner?

He quickly said, "Fellow Daoist, do you no longer want the lives of your son and your brothers?"

"Their lives and deaths are entirely at my whim!"

The Patriarch of the Situ Family turned around in shock to look at the three on the ground writhing in agony.

He suddenly felt that what Gu Changan said might be true!

However, he did not recall the ten thousand souls banner he had cast out.
