73: You wouldn't want anything to happen at the Holy Land of Heavenly Light, would you?

As Li Wushuang and the others appeared, Ying Lanfeng and Great Emperor Tianlei couldn't help but be drawn to them.

"Greetings, Holy Lord of Tianguang and Great Emperor Tianlei."

Although he was a Late Stage Great Emperor, Li Wushuang still greeted Ying Lanfeng and Great Emperor Tianlei respectfully upon his arrival.

For no other reason than the fact that the powers behind them were not ones he could afford to offend.

Ying Lanfeng and Great Emperor Tianlei were only slightly surprised for a moment before they stopped caring.

After all, they still remembered the events at the auction; it was only natural that Li Wushuang would come to kill Gu Jixiao after he had offended Li Changqing.

"I ask that you two leave this person to me for execution. Of course, the changguang fruit and heavenly thunder origin liquid are yours to dispose of as you see fit."

Li Wushuang continued.

"This person actually dared to drag my Li family's reputation through the mud. Therefore, I want to make him suffer such that he will beg for a death he cannot find!"

"Fine. I only want the changguang fruit; you can deal with the rest yourselves."

Ying Lanfeng said in a cold tone.

Great Emperor Tianlei, standing beside her, felt the same.

With their agreement, Li Wushuang finally looked toward Gu Jixiao and let out a cold laugh.

"Boy, your biggest mistake was making my Li family lose face in front of so many people. Now, die quietly!"

Beside him, Li Changqing looked at Gu Jixiao with a sinister grin and said, "Boy, you actually dared to embarrass me. I'm going to kill you and make your woman wag her tail and beg for mercy beneath me!"

"Father, do it. Get rid of him."

In the next moment, Li Wushuang took the lead, raising his hand to suppress Gu Jixiao.

He didn't hold back at all with this palm strike. In the vast Eastern Region, any powerful expert with a bit of strength suddenly looked up toward the direction outside Tianyong City.

"Hiss, which Great Emperor is taking action?"

"Didn't the Three Great Sacred Lands order that Great Emperors of the Heavenly Saint Continent are not allowed to fight? How can a Great Emperor dare to act so publicly?"

"That direction seems to be Tianyong City? Hurry there."

All at once, many Quasi-Emperor experts rushed toward Tianyong City.

After all, they were extremely curious about which Great Emperor dared to act so openly.

Feeling the aura of Li Wushuang's attack, Ying Lanfeng spoke with a slight frown.

"Pull him into your Domain before you strike."

Others might not know, but as the Holy Lord of Tianguang Holy Land, she naturally knew why those in the Great Emperor Realm were forbidden from fighting.

"Yes."

Facing Ying Lanfeng's command, Li Wushuang naturally didn't dare to refuse. After complying, he withdrew his hand and immediately pulled everyone into his Domain.

Once inside the Domain, the aura of a Great Emperor no longer leaked out, and Li Wushuang continued his attack.

However, Gu Jixiao remained as calm as a light breeze, waving his hand indifferently.

"Gu Fang, get rid of him."

As Gu Jixiao spoke, a figure appeared before him.

With just a single sword strike, Li Wushuang's massive palm print was sliced in half.

This sudden turn of events made the expressions of Li Wushuang and Great Emperor Tianlei turn grave. They looked at the man protecting Gu Jixiao with eyes full of wariness.

"Senior, may I ask..."

Just as Li Wushuang was about to say something, Gu Fang acted directly, leaning forward slightly and gripping his sword with both hands.

"Universe Slash."

Gu Fang's tone was flat, and the moment he finished speaking, an incomparably brilliant sword strike fell.

The moment he saw the sword, Li Wushuang's pupils could only shrink; he had no other reaction before he was instantly killed by the strike.

Seeing this scene, Ying Lanfeng and Great Emperor Tianlei were both stunned in place.

After a long while, they couldn't help but tremble with fear.

Peak Great Emperor!

This was definitely a Peak Great Emperor!

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to kill Li Wushuang, a Late Stage Great Emperor, with a single sword strike.

Looking at Li Changqing and Uncle Fu, the two were already scared witless, completely at a loss for words.

Of course, Gu Jixiao did not spare them. Without needing Gu Fang to act, he killed Li Changqing and Uncle Fu with a single palm strike.

At this point, only Ying Lanfeng and Great Emperor Tianlei remained.

With a playful look on his face, Gu Jixiao looked at the two and asked.

"You two, do you still intend to take my life now?"

At this moment, Ying Lanfeng and Great Emperor Tianlei were cursing inwardly. Where did this power come from?

Weren't the Three Great Sacred Lands the only ones in the Heavenly Saint Continent with Peak Great Emperors?

Besides, if you had such formidable strength, you should have said so earlier. Did you have to pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger?

But even though they were cursing in their hearts, neither dared to show the slightest hint of it.

"Fellow Daoist, this matter is entirely a misunderstanding. We are willing to offer an apology and compensation. We hope you can be merciful and spare us."

Great Emperor Tianlei was the first to show a fawning smile.

One must know that the last time Great Emperor Tianlei had shown such an attitude was a full five thousand years ago.

Beside him, Ying Lanfeng did the same.

"Fellow Daoist, this is completely a misunderstanding. Please, for the sake of Great Emperor Tianguang, spare me this once. I am willing to apologize and compensate."

However, as Ying Lanfeng's words fell, Gu Jixiao's face instantly darkened.

"So, are you threatening me?"

"I wouldn't dare."

Ying Lanfeng's eyes widened as she hurried to speak, but Gu Jixiao gave her no chance, his figure flickering as he appeared before her.

Before Ying Lanfeng could react, Gu Jixiao reached out and lifted her chin.

"Woman, do you know you're playing with fire?"

Although Ying Lanfeng was the Holy Lord of Tianguang Holy Land, her strength was only at the Peak Quasi-Emperor level.

And while Gu Jixiao was also at the Peak Quasi-Emperor level, the two were worlds apart.

After all, Ying Lanfeng's cultivation had been boosted by Heaven And Earth Treasures, making it quite superficial.

But Gu Jixiao had been boosted by the System, having cultivated bitterly for a full 130,000 years. His Peak Quasi-Emperor Realm was incredibly solid, naturally making him much stronger than someone like Ying Lanfeng whose power was mostly fluff.

Suddenly having her chin lifted by Gu Jixiao, Ying Lanfeng felt a wave of shame and indignation, but it was followed by a racing heartbeat.

"N-no, I wouldn't dare."

Ying Lanfeng's ears turned crimson as she turned her head away to speak.

"Forget it. Since I am kind-hearted, I won't destroy your Tianguang Holy Land. But as punishment, I want you to become my concubine!"

As Gu Jixiao's words fell, Ying Lanfeng suddenly snapped out of it.

"Fellow Daoist, your words are a bit too outrageous. Please allow me to refuse."

Although Gu Jixiao was powerful, he wasn't yet powerful enough to make her a concubine.

No matter what, she should at least be granted the status of a primary wife.

Seeing Ying Lanfeng's refusal, Gu Jixiao wasn't surprised. He leaned his head close to her ear and exhaled softly.

"Holy Lord Ying, I think you've misunderstood something."

"Becoming my concubine is your honor, and I haven't given you any room to refuse."

"After all, you wouldn't want the Tianguang Holy Land to be destroyed, would you?"
