120: Chapter 120 The Heart-Eating Gu is ineffective; Gu Han coldly breaks the killing trap.

"Who... who exactly are you?"

"Why did you sneak into the Zhenwu Division?"

"What is your ultimate goal?"

Chu Li forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart and sternly demanded, though his voice inevitably carried a hint of trembling.

At the same time, Chu Li's mind raced, trying to frame Gu Han as a spy who had snuck into the Zhenwu Division.

Meanwhile, Gu Han's strength had already surpassed his comprehension.

The Heart-Devouring Gu was ineffective, and the Heaven-Confining Earth-Locking Formation had been torn apart; this was simply unheard of.

Gu Han did not answer, only smiling coldly; in Chu Li's eyes, that smile was like the grin of a demon.

Just then, the sound of air being torn apart approached from afar.

"Who dares to act presumptuously in the Second Prince's residence?"

"You actually dare to injure the Prince and tear apart the Heaven-Confining Earth-Locking Formation!"

"You deserve death!"

"Why don't you surrender immediately!"

Accompanied by roars, three figures rushed into the hall like lightning; they were the three experts serving as Retainers in the Second Prince's residence.

The leader was a White-haired Elder with a withered face, but eyes as sharp as a hawk's.

True Qi surged around his body; he was clearly an expert at the sixth level of the Dharma Aspect Realm.

Behind him, two middle-aged men with heavy, composed Auras were both existences at the third level of the Dharma Aspect Realm.

As soon as the three entered the hall, they were shocked by the chaotic scene before them.

Broken tables and chairs, dancing girls coughing up blood, and the wailing "Shadow Blade" death soldiers on the ground all manifested the brutality of the battle that had just occurred.

When they saw Gu Han standing in the center of the ruins, holding a long saber, his body radiating intense killing intent, a trace of shock flashed in their eyes.

"Retainer Song, Retainer Li, Retainer Wang, you have finally arrived!"

Seeing the three, Chu Li seemed to have grabbed a lifeline; a flash of wild joy crossed his eyes, which was immediately replaced by resentment.

"This person is extremely arrogant; not only did he tear apart the Heaven-Confining Earth-Locking Formation, but he also severely injured my Shadow Blade."

"He is attempting to assassinate the Prince!"

"Three Retainers, take him down immediately! This Prince wants him to wish for death but be unable to die!"

Facing Chu Li's framing, Gu Han watched quietly from the side, a cold smile hanging on his lips.

At this moment, Gu Han had absolutely no desire to explain.

Only the weak would explain themselves.

The strong are always the ones who set the rules.

At this time, Retainer Song's gaze fell upon Gu Han, a hint of gravity flashing in his eyes.

He saw at a glance that although Gu Han only had the cultivation of the Perfection of the Mortal Transformation Realm.

His Aura was not in the slightest weaker than theirs, and was even more formidable.

Especially the faint Saber Intent around Gu Han's body, which made him feel a sense of warning.

"Commander Gu Tian?"

Retainer Song spoke in a deep voice; he naturally recognized Gu Han's identity.

After all, Gu Han had only just taken office as the Zhenwu Division Commander today, and the news had already spread throughout the capital.

"Is there some misunderstanding about tonight's events?"

"Could you please put down your weapon?"

"I believe Your Highness would not wrong you without cause."

"He will surely clear your name."

He tried to mediate; after all, Gu Han's identity was no small matter.

If the Zhenwu Division Commander were truly killed in the Second Prince's residence today, it would cause a huge uproar in the entire capital, and he might even become a scapegoat.

"Misunderstanding?"

Gu Han laughed coldly, his gaze sweeping over Retainer Song, his eyes full of mockery.

"You had better ask Your Highness what exactly he has done first!"

"He used the Heart-Devouring Gu on me, and even trapped me with the Heaven-Confining Earth-Locking Formation, wanting to control me as a Puppet!"

His voice was loud and resonant, like a great bell, making the entire hall hum.

The death soldiers and dancing girls who had fallen to the ground were all shocked upon hearing this.

They never expected that the Second Prince would lay such a vicious hand on the newly appointed Zhenwu Division Commander.

Retainer Song's expression changed, and he cast his gaze toward Chu Li.

Chu Li's face was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth.

"Retainer Song, do not listen to his nonsense!"

"This person is clearly acting under someone's orders, intending to assassinate this Prince!"

"Act quickly and kill him to set the record straight!"

"This Highness will bear any consequences!"

"I will ensure you are all safe."

He knew that once Gu Han said this, today's matter could not be resolved amicably.

Once it was confirmed that he had laid a vicious hand on the Zhenwu Division Commander, even with his status as a Prince, he would get into trouble.

His brothers would certainly not let this opportunity pass to completely kick him out of the succession struggle.

The only plan now was to completely eliminate Gu Han to prevent future trouble.

As long as Gu Han was dead, everything would be decided by him.

And no one would fight to the death with him for a dead man.

Hearing Chu Li's order, the three looked at each other.

"This old man would like to see just how capable you are, daring to run wild in this Prince's residence!"

Chu Li completely tore off his mask, his voice filled with viciousness.

"Retainer Song, no need to hold back!"

"This person's strength is strange; you must kill him, you absolutely cannot let him leave alive!"

Upon hearing this, Retainer Song took a deep breath, a trace of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

Since Chu Li had already issued a death order, he could not retreat any further.

He was Chu Li's Retainer, and his duty was to protect Chu Li.

"Arrogant brat!"

Retainer Song shouted angrily, his withered hands suddenly forming seals, and the True Qi around his body surging like boiling magma.

The two Retainers at the third level of the Dharma Aspect Realm behind him also attacked simultaneously.

The three surrounded Gu Han in a triangular formation, their massive pressure instantly enveloping the entire hall, like three towering mountains, attempting to suppress Gu Han.

"Go to hell!"

Retainer Song struck first, a brilliant golden orb of light condensing in his palm.

Inside the orb of light, the sounds of dragon roars and tiger cries could be faintly heard, carrying the power to split mountains and crack rocks, smashing toward Gu Han.

The other two Retainers did not show weakness, one turning into an afterimage.

Appearing at Gu Han's flank in an instant, the long sword in his hand flickered like a poisonous snake, stabbing straight at Gu Han's waist.

The other attacked from behind Gu Han, lightning flashing in his palm, making a crackling sound, attempting to sandwich Gu Han and lock him down completely.

The combined attack of three Dharma Aspect Realm experts was enough to make even an ordinary Peak Dharma Aspect Realm expert change color.

However, Gu Han's face had not the slightest ripple.

A bloodthirsty arc curled at the corners of his mouth, and a cold light flared in his eyes.

"A bunch of rabble, daring to act presumptuously in front of me!"

Before the words had even faded, the long saber in Gu Han's hand slashed out violently.

"Flowing Cloud Slash!"

The brilliant saber light was like lightning tearing through the night sky, instantly cutting through the Void Realm.

Within the saber light, it seemed to contain endless killing intent, condensing into a tangible saber energy.

That saber energy tore through the air, emitting a sharp hiss, carrying an unrivaled Aura as it met Retainer Song's golden orb of light.

"Boom!"

With a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering roar, the saber energy and the orb of light collided violently in the air.

Violent energy exploded instantly, spreading in all directions like raging waves.

The golden orb of light lasted less than a breath before it shattered inch by inch under Gu Han's domineering saber strike, dissipating into golden light filling the sky.

The remaining force of the saber energy did not diminish, moving even faster, like an arrow off the string, heading straight for Retainer Song.

Retainer Song's expression changed drastically; he never expected Gu Han's saber strike to be so terrifying.

The True Qi in his body surged crazily, attempting to resist, but the speed of the saber energy was too fast; he had no time to defend completely.

"Pfft!"

The saber energy tore through the air, making a teeth-grinding sound, instantly piercing through Retainer Song's left arm.

Blood gushed out like a fountain; Retainer Song screamed, his body flying backward like a kite with a broken string, smashing heavily against the wall.

His left arm had been severed at the root, bloody and mangled, a shocking sight.
