191: Main competition

Not long after the Imperial Grandson left, the Ink Scale Demon General sent someone back with a reply. Although he didn't know what Gu Yuchuan intended to do, he readily agreed. No matter who was on the arena tomorrow, he would strike with lethal intent, ensuring no hope of survival for the opponent. Furthermore, they agreed to meet at Gu Yuchuan's place tomorrow night to discuss the full details of the matter.

After handling all of this, Gu Yuchuan looked at the Crown Princes Consort. Her current status was different; with this Human Race fruit position, although her Aptitude was average, she now possessed the capital to Cultivate. At the very least, becoming a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator would be easy, and with some effort, she could barely reach the Golden Core Stage.

"Congratulations on getting what you wanted. Cultivate well in the future and don't waste the schemes you've made. My cooperation with the Imperial Grandson won't be too close; after all, I am from the Yao Race, so I can't help you much. You still have to rely on yourself."

She was about to kneel, pulling up her skirt, but Gu Yuchuan stopped her. If he allowed the Human Race's Crown Princes Consort to kneel before him, the Human Dao Luck would instantly devour him, and he wouldn't dare.

"Get up quickly, don't harm me."

Her eyes were red, "Your Majesty, I will definitely stabilize my position and take revenge. But Your Majesty, please keep this matter from my sister. I don't want her to worry about me. I am very satisfied and relieved that she has become your disciple. Her future is bound to be bright. I hope she can uphold grandfather's will and become a Foundation Establishment Stage, or even Golden Core Stage, demon. This is our Family's wish, and I hope she can achieve it. As for me, I will avenge our Family."

Gu Yuchuan could actually feel that her heart had already gone to an extreme. This state was definitely not conducive to Cultivation, but there was nothing he could do. Hatred had already blinded her heart, and she had embarked on the path of revenge. Naturally, she couldn't let go until she succeeded in her revenge.

"I understand. Just do your thing with peace of mind. Alright, go rest. I also need to rest a bit; there's still a competition tomorrow."

He waved his hand, and she bowed and retreated. He himself lay on the bed and began to rest. Every battle starting from tomorrow would be fought with lethal intent. Prince Zhao, Marquis of Champion. They were indeed a great threat. He was willing to use the Imperial Grandson's hand to make his enemies suffer.

A night without dreams, Gu Yuchuan woke up just as the first light of dawn appeared. At this time, there was indeed still some time before the competition began. He meditated on his bed and recited the Golden Light Incantation twenty times. Although he was confident about today's competition, it involved life and death, so he still felt a bit uneasy. After reciting the Golden Light Incantation, his heart felt more at ease. By then, it was already time to draw lots.

A young eunuch was in charge of drawing lots. When he saw Gu Yuchuan, his attitude was very diligent. It seemed he was one of the Imperial Grandson's people. Indeed, the Crown Prince and Imperial Grandson, after all, held official titles and lived in the Imperial Palace. It was certainly much easier for them to place their people among the eunuchs than for Prince Zhao. No matter how favored Prince Zhao was, as an adult prince, he couldn't live in the Imperial Palace. If you lived far away, it would naturally be difficult to place your people.

The first person drawn was Tu Yuan, a Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment Cultivator and one of Prince Zhao's direct descendants. Like Gu Yuchuan, he had won all three preliminary matches. Logically, two people with perfect records would be avoided in the draw, but under the Imperial Grandson's manipulation, they were matched together.

Gu Yuchuan leaped onto the arena and saw Tu Yuan opposite him. He was a scholar dressed in a green robe, looking refined and seemingly weak. But Gu Yuchuan dared not underestimate him in the slightest. He knew from the information given by the Imperial Grandson that the opponent was a rare Confucian Dao Cultivator, who had a certain suppressive effect on demons.

However, it was clear that Gu Yuchuan was one of the few demons not restrained by him. The Bloodline of a Divine Dragon was not something any Confucian Dao could suppress.

This Confucian Dao was also an important path in Human Race Cultivation. It was deeply bound to the Human Dao, born to consolidate the Human Dao. In the forces of the Human Race that followed the Imperial Dynasty lineage, there would always be Confucian Dao Cultivators.

The opponent seemed to despise the Yao Race greatly. He looked at Gu Yuchuan, his eyes even showing disdain and malice: "Yao Race, prepare to die."

He was condescending, as if speaking a few words to Gu Yuchuan was a desecration of himself. He conjured his book, which formed a golden scroll in the air, with many characters on it.

"Restrain!" he shouted these two words, and two characters for 'restrain' flew out from the golden scroll. They transformed into two chains in the air, attempting to bind Gu Yuchuan.

He snorted coldly, "A mere minor Dao dares to be so presumptuous in front of this lord."

He threw out two drops of Heavenly Profound Heavy Water, which, under his Water Manipulation talent, also transformed into two chains. For a moment, four chains danced and tangled in the air. However, anyone with discerning eyes could see that the chains controlled by Gu Yuchuan were more agile, quickly gaining the upper hand.

Tu Yuan was certainly unwilling. For him to lose to a Yao Race member was akin to losing his life; he might as well die directly.

A writing brush appeared in his hand, and his hands began to continuously write something in the air: "Suppress."

As he finished writing these two characters, a cyan Pagoda in the air pressed down on Gu Yuchuan, and righteous qi formed a cage around him. However, Gu Yuchuan was even happier; he actually had this Pagoda too.

The Golden Light Incantation also transformed into a Pagoda, and the two Pagodas directly collided. This was a clash between the Golden Light Incantation and righteous qi, and a battle between the true inheritances of Daoism and Confucianism. What was Confucian Dao compared to the Daoist sect? As expected, after only a moment of stalemate, the righteous qi was dispersed, and his innate Qi shattered. He immediately suffered a backlash, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood.

Logically, Gu Yuchuan had already won, but what he wanted was not a simple victory, but the opponent's life. His eyes turned cold, his magical power suppressed the opponent, preventing him from saying the words 'I surrender,' and he raised his Long Spear, charging directly forward.

His speed was extremely fast. In an instant, the Long Spear pierced through his Dantian, damaging Tu Yuan's Dao Foundation, and his life began to ebb away.

Tu Yuan looked at Gu Yuchuan unwillingly, but there was nothing he could do. Finally, he could only collapse on the arena. Ordinary Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment Cultivators truly had no room to resist against Gu Yuchuan.

Prince Zhao watched this scene, clenching his fists. This was a Prodigy he had intended to Cultivate, and he had died just like that. He immediately shouted, "This Prodigy is so vicious and merciless, is this the sincerity of your Yao Race's cooperation?"
