38: He's a fucking beast.

A few breaths ago.

On the peak of a mountain a hundred miles away, five figures stood silently.

Inside the Barrier, Leng Yue and Su Li sat cross-legged, their bodies surrounded by the faint aura of the Law and Dao.

Suddenly, Su Li abruptly opened her eyes, and a powerful aura of a Fifth-Stage Quasi-Emperor soared into the sky.

She stood up directly and looked at Liu Ruyan, who was standing to the side, her Face full of excitement: "Ruyan, thank you so much."

Liu Ruyan shook her head with a smile: "Even without me, you would have been able to achieve a Breakthrough within half a month."

Su Li, however, shook her head: "That may be true, but the Dao of Reincarnation you just explained has enlightened me!"

"Now my understanding of the Law of Reincarnation is much clearer; perhaps it won't be long before I can become an Emperor too!"

Liu Ruyan nodded and turned her gaze to Leng Yue, only to see that she had also opened her eyes, her Face full of disappointment.

"Leng Yue, did you not comprehend anything at all?" Liu Ruyan asked, somewhat puzzled.

It stood to reason that since she, a great power from the Immortal Realm, was personally preaching and had specifically focused on Leng Yue's Moon Dao, there was no way she would have gained nothing.

Leng Yue shook her head, her brows furrowed tightly: "I don't know what's wrong, but I've been feeling uneasy all day, as if something major is about to happen."

A flash of darkness crossed Su Li's eyes as she stepped forward to comfort her: "What kind of major event could there be?"

"Are you worried that someone might come to cause trouble and disrupt Yun'er's Succession Ceremony?"

"Rest assured, with Ruyan here, who in the entire Spirit Realm would dare to run wild?"

No sooner had she finished speaking than she saw a graceful figure flying over in a hurry from the distance, shouting: "Second Mistress, something is wrong."

Seeing this, Liu Ruyan raised her hand and removed the Barrier.

After the Maidservant landed, she stumbled as she ran toward them.

Leng Yue stood up instantly, her inner unease magnifying a hundredfold, and her body swayed slightly.

Su Li quickly reached out to support her, asking with concern: "Second Sister, what's wrong? You look so pale."

Leng Yue broke free from her hand and stepped forward quickly to grab the Maidservant.

She recognized this Maidservant as someone from her Moyue Residence.

"What happened?" Leng Yue's voice was trembling slightly.

The Maidservant panted heavily and said urgently: "J-just now, Clan Chief Gu Yun suddenly broke into the Moyue Residence and entered the Young Miss's room!"

"After he drove us all out, he even sealed the Moyue Residence with a Barrier!"

"Recalling the recent rumors in the clan, I was really afraid that something might happen, so I... I hurried over to report it."

As soon as she finished speaking, two powerful Realm King auras suddenly erupted above the Moyue Residence in the distance.

The three of them turned their heads sharply and saw Li Xinxue wielding a holy sword, pursuing and attacking Gu Yun with ruthless moves.

Leng Yue suddenly recalled what had happened to Gu Chuyan some time ago, stumbled back a few steps, and then flashed, instantly disappearing from where she stood.

Su Li and Liu Ruyan exchanged a glance and quickly followed.

Seeing this, Aunt Xue and Aunt Bai also hurriedly followed.

Inside Gu Lingshuang's room.

The five of them, led by Leng Yue, appeared one after another.

Almost the moment she landed, Leng Yue's gaze locked onto Gu Lingshuang, who was curled up in the silk quilt on the bed.

Seeing Gu Lingshuang trembling all over, she instantly understood what had happened.

"Shuanger, tell Mother, who did this?" Leng Yue asked softly, suppressing the monstrous killing intent in her heart.

She approached slowly, but Gu Lingshuang was so frightened that she shrank back abruptly, her frail shoulders trembling even more violently.

Leng Yue felt a pang of pain in her heart, and her eyes instantly reddened: "Shuanger, it's Mother!"

Only then did Gu Lingshuang slowly come to her senses. Upon realizing it was truly Leng Yue, she threw herself into her arms and cried heart-wrenchingly: "Mother! You've finally come... sob, sob, sob... Mother..."

Leng Yue gently stroked her trembling back, her own fingertips shaking, the killing intent in her eyes almost solidifying.

She said softly: "Don't be afraid, Shuanger. Tell Mother, who bullied you? Mother will avenge you and make him pay back a thousand, ten thousand times over!"

Gu Lingshuang's voice was choked with sobs as she squeezed out three words through her teeth: "I-it's Gu Yun."

Boom!

A monstrous pressure suddenly exploded, landing squarely and completely on Gu Yun.

Gu Yun, who was trying his best to defend, felt his bones groaning, his spiritual power instantly dissipated, and he fell from the sky.

He crashed directly onto the courtyard floor of the Moyue Residence, kicking up a cloud of dust.

He lay Face down on the ground, pinned by an invisible force; not to mention struggling, he couldn't even move a finger.

Li Xinxue descended from the sky, staring at Gu Yun with a murderous expression.

If it weren't for this bastard, her husband wouldn't have been the subject of the clan's gossip for a month.

At this moment.

The Nine Great Elders and other core members of the Gu Clan swarmed into the courtyard, followed closely by Lin Xiaotian's family, and the courtyard was instantly packed with people.

Lin Rou stood not far away, looking at Gu Yun with some worry.

She still didn't understand what had happened.

At the entrance of the courtyard.

The leader of the Zhatian Gang, Xu Fenglai, leaned against the left door frame, while Brother Kun of the Axe Gang leaned against the right, both of them filled with the expression of watching a good show.

Looking at these familiar Faces, Gu Yun felt the world spinning, and everything went black before his eyes.

Just now, he had gone over all the possible loopholes in the frame-up a hundred times, but he couldn't find a single piece of evidence in his favor.

Coupled with the "lesson learned" from a month ago, he might really be doomed this time.

Just then, a sword ray exuding a chilling aura suddenly hung before his eyes, making his pupils shrink sharply.

Gu Yun slowly glanced up along the tip of the sword, meeting Leng Yue's blood-red eyes.

"Gu Yun." Leng Yue's voice was extremely cold, and a layer of frost radiated around her: "For the sake of the Eldest Sister, I sentence you to capital punishment, plus the abolition of your cultivation. Do you accept this or not?"

Li Xinxue, who was to the side, saw this and stepped forward with her sword, the tip pointing directly at Gu Yun's throat: "Second Aunt, this is a fake Gu Yun. Xinxue suggests, first branding, then skinning, then waist-chopping, and finally chopping him up to feed the dogs!"

Gu Yun stiffened, his eyes nearly popping out in shock.

This woman's heart was too ruthless!

No, wait, she was saying this to the fake Gu Yun.

Realizing this, Gu Yun roared hurriedly: "Second Aunt! Xinxue! I am the real Gu Yun! I definitely didn't do the act of defiling Ling Shuang!"

Leng Yue pushed the Emperor Weapon in her hand forward, the cold blade pressed against his neck, her voice devoid of any warmth: "So, you think Ling Shuang would use her own chastity to frame you?"

"Exactly!" In the crowd, the Ninth Elder stepped forward abruptly and said sternly: "Which girl would joke about her own chastity?"

"I said long ago that this beast defiled my granddaughter, but you didn't believe me back then!"

"Now, look, this perverted lecher has finally couldn't help himself and committed the crime again!"

He stared at Gu Yun with cold eyes, sneering in his heart: Kid, let's see how you escape this time!

Behind him, Gu Chuyan quietly poked her head out, looking at the disheveled Gu Yun lying on the ground, a flash of undisguised satisfaction passing through her eyes.

Of all people, why did you have to mess with Ling Shuang?

Gu Yun, once you become a cripple, I will come to "take care" of you every day, so that you will wish for death but be unable to die!

"I have heard a little about this, but I didn't expect it to be true." Xu Fenglai shook his head, clicking his tongue in wonder: "What a damn beast! I, Xu Fenglai, at most pine for a younger brother's wife who is not related by blood."

"This Gu Yun is truly a role model for our generation."

Brother Kun, who was to the side, nodded in deep agreement, stroking his chin: "He is indeed a beast."

"Compared to this, me pining for my second mother doesn't seem so beastly after all."
