Sweeping Across Jiang Province

Dragon Sparrow Manor.

Main hall.

Nian Buwang, Gu Chaoyang, Cheng Wanli and others kept busy.

At that moment, a sword light descended from the sky and landed on the steps in front of the main hall.

It was Xin Tianqi.

"Star Lord".

Cheng Wanli stepped forward.

"In order to have a decisive battle with us, Long Xiangtian and Ye Qianqiu have gathered all their experts in Longxiao City. Although there may be some Spirit Refining True Person stationed in other cities and some key places, their numbers will not exceed twenty. I have already sent Nie Shisan and a few other Spirit Transformation cultivators to lead teams to recapture the cities."

Xin Tianqi spoke as soon as he entered the room.

But after he finished speaking, he glanced around the main hall and realized that Gu Jinlai was not there. He couldn't help but ask, "Where is Lord Gu?"

"The patriarch is still cooperating with the Demon God's personal guards to hunt down the remaining remnants of Dragon Sparrow Manor."

Gu Chaoyang quickly replied.

"Not back yet?"

Xin Tianqi couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "The Lord of Guzhou is truly considerate of his subordinates. He knows that this kind of mopping-up street fighting is still quite dangerous, and he is always at the forefront of the battle."

Cheng Wanli and the others nodded in deep agreement.

Even Gu Chaoyang and Nian Buwang basically share this idea.

Those who are capable should do more work.

The ancestor must have felt that he was stronger and safer when clearing out the enemy, so he charged to the front line, braving dangers with his own body, in order to minimize the casualties of the demon god's guards.

This style of doing things certainly inspired the other members of the Demon God's Guard.

When the teacher has something to do, the disciple will do the work.

Although the Demon God's personal guards are not disciples of the Gu Jinlai, they are the most powerful personal soldiers under his command.

As a result, their personal guards were not very capable, and the patriarch often had to lead from the front...

Although the ancestor was concerned about their safety.

This approach, while touching the hearts of the Demon God's guards, also pushed them to their limits, hoping they could grow up quickly, relieve the Ancestor's worries, and take on their responsibilities so that the Ancestor wouldn't have to handle every trivial matter personally.

"I'll go and find the Lord of Guzhou..."

As Xin Tianqi spoke, he quickly sensed something else. "It's here."

Before long, Gu Jinlai, clad in spirit armor, walked in from outside.

However, because the Cheng Ying Sword was destroyed by the energy burst of that attack, he had no suitable weapon.

What he was holding now was a common Spirit Artifact -grade greatsword that he had used before.

"Xin Xingzhu".

Gu Jinlai greeted them and said, "Dragon Sparrow Manor, we've taken it."

Xin Tianqi was taken aback by the words from Gu Jinlai, and swallowed back all the words he originally wanted to say.

He was busy day and night, keeping a close eye on the actions of the remnants of Dragon Sparrow Manor inside Dragon Roar City, so much so that he had no time to think calmly.

Now, reminded of this by the Gu Jinlai, I can't help but feel a little dazed.

"Yes, we took it down."

He said something.

They conquered Dragon Sparrow Manor.

Although he knew that the reason they were able to destroy Dragon Sparrow Manor was because of that trump card from Gu Jinlai.

If it weren't for that trump card that wiped out the core leadership of Dragon Sparrow Manor, destroying Dragon Sparrow Manor so quickly would have been nothing short of a pipe dream.

After all, judging from their apparent strength, Longque Manor is no less powerful than Star Province.

Even more so.

Relying on their trump cards from Gu Jinlai, they won the battle in one fell swoop, destroying all the high-level forces of Dragon Sparrow Manor.

Right now, they have even stormed into Dragon Roar City and are wiping out the remaining experts of Dragon Sparrow Manor one by one.

After a long while, he couldn't help but sigh as if confirming something, "We actually destroyed Dragon Sparrow Manor."

One of the Six Immortal Sects.

An ancient sect that has been passed down for more than 600 years.

A terrifying force that has occupied Jiangzhou for nearly a century.

Not only him, but everyone else in the main hall was also somewhat dazed at this moment.

This includes Gu Chaoyang and Nian Buwang, descendants of the Gu Clan who have followed them through the Gu Jinlai.

"Dragon Sparrow Manor".

The two said hello.

When they occupied Lingxiao City in the Gu Jinlai and became its lords, they were already filled with excitement and emotion.

Having a city as a base, even a small city like Lingxiao City, is a qualitative leap for the Gu Clan.

After all, before that, the Gu Clan was just one of the Three Great Families in Red Wind City Chi Province.

Although they are called the Three Great Families, the real power in Red Wind City is the City Lord Mansion, which is personally appointed by the Purgatory Sect.

From being one of the few powers in a city to controlling an entire city, this is undoubtedly a huge leap.

However, once Lingxiao City was established as a base, the ancestor's development speed seemed to become unstoppable.

Not only did they quickly occupy Yuanhua City, but they also became the rulers of five cities: Sunset City, Changjun City, and Baihe City.

After the Battle of Baihe City, he took over Taihe City on behalf of the Purgatory Sect, occupying six cities.

Although the Battle of Baihe City allowed for some reflection, that period of reflection was insignificant compared to the speed of the Ancestor's development.

Soon, the patriarch, carrying the power of the Gu Clan, swept across Star Province and became the ruler of Star Province.

This scene...

It's simply a dream come true.

What they found hard to believe at this moment was that becoming the ruler of Star Province was still not the limit.

Today, the Ancestor led his troops into Jiangzhou and destroyed Longque Manor, one of the Six Immortal Sects.

"This is Dragon Sparrow Manor, one of the Six Immortal Sects."

"If I remember correctly, the Purgatory Sect Chi Province and is like an uncrowned king, is inferior to the Dragon Sparrow Manor. Yet, this force, which is stronger than the Purgatory Sect, was defeated by our ancestor."

The two looked somewhat dazed.

The world before my eyes seemed somewhat unreal.

Beside them, also assisting in handling matters large and small, was Elder Zhao Qian from the Purgatory Sect, who had expressed his sincerity early on.

He did not refute their words.

Dragon Sparrow Manor is indeed stronger than Purgatory Sect.

Huo Yuqing and Lu Zhanxian are both masters of the same level.

Even if he is slightly inferior to Lu Zhanxian, adding Ye Qianqiu would be enough.

Before the conflict with Gu Jinlai broke out, Longque Manor had five True Lords: Huo Yuqing, Ye Qianqiu, Long Xiangtian, Wang Yinfeng, and Ye Wuxia.

There are also twenty-six Spirit Transformation cultivators and over a hundred Spirit Refining True Person.

Regardless of the number of experts at the Primordial Spirit, Spirit Transformation, and Spirit Refining stages, Dragon Sparrow Manor surpasses Purgatory Sect.

Not to mention the even larger numbers of those at the Core Forming, Gang Condensing, and Qi Refining.

From this perspective, if converted into an army, Dragon Sparrow Manor is equivalent to having at least a million soldiers, while Purgatory Sect has at most a force of six hundred thousand.

The difference in strength between the two sides is significant.

Of course, the actual outcome of a real fight will depend on the actual actions taken.

"Alright, take inventory of all assets of Dragon Sparrow Manor."

Gu Jinlai, he handed something to Xin Tianqi: "It's good that Star Lord Xin is here. See if this sword is suitable for you."

When Xin Tianqi saw what Gu Jinlai handed him, his pupils suddenly contracted. "This is... the Spirit Sparrow Sword."

"Good."

Gu Jinlai nodded.

Before unleashing his ultimate attack, he deliberately captured the Spirit Sparrow Sword and threw it far away in the opposite direction from Huo Yuqing, thus saving this quasi-Dao artifact-level flying sword.

Otherwise, if they lost a top-grade spirit sword and a superior spirit armor and couldn't even recover these few spoils of war, they would truly have lost everything.

"The Spirit Sparrow Sword..."

Xin Tianqi took a deep breath and looked at Gu Jinlai: "Lord Gu intends to give me this sword? This... is a quasi-Dao artifact level treasure."

"You are the only Primordial Spirit True Lord in our Star Province, so this Spirit Sparrow Sword is most suitable for you to use."

Gu Jinlai, he seemed to have thought of something, "Actually, we also have a copy of the Taixi Transformation Dragon Technique. I originally wanted to give you this secret technique, as well as a few sword techniques and sword control techniques that look pretty good, but I was delayed because of the descent of the Heavenly Dragon. Perfect timing, I will have Su Nanxing send it to you when the time comes, and have him teach you the Taixi Transformation Dragon Technique and those sword techniques. You can also take some time to give him some pointers."

Speaking of this, he said with some regret, "Su Nanxing is my eldest disciple. He achieved the Spirit Refining in his early forties. Unfortunately, I have now switched to the path of the Celestial Master and the path of the Demon God Warrior, so I can no longer teach him anything about the path of the Primordial Spirit."

Xin Tianqi looked at the Gu Jinlai.

He carefully put away the Spirit Sparrow Sword.

He knew that the reason why he had been asked to teach Su Nanxing cultivation Gu Jinlai was simply to prevent Su Nanxing from feeling unworthy of the instruction.

Therefore, he solemnly replied, "Rest assured, your disciple is my disciple. Su Nanxing will surely become a great man in the future."

"That's excellent."

Gu Jinlai nodded. "Dragon Sparrow Manor gathered many experts in Dragon Roar City to fight a decisive battle with us. Now Dragon Roar City has been captured and the main force of Dragon Sparrow Manor has been wiped out. However, there are still some cities in Jiangzhou that have not been recovered. Some of these cities still have spies planted by surrounding forces, such as Yellow Heaven Sect, Cold Moon Sect, and various clans in Lizhou. In case of any changes, I will take my Demon God Guards on a trip. For the time being, you will be in charge of Dragon Roar City."

"Such trivial matters should be handled by me. As the governor, you are the most suitable person to oversee the central government..."

Xin Tian abandoned the Dao.

"I need to use spies in the city who represent other factions to communicate with the forces behind them, and besides..."

Gu Jinlai looked at Xin Tianqi and said with a smile, "Have you forgotten that I said I want to build an orderly and just country? So why do we need to distinguish so clearly between primary and secondary roles?"

Xin Tianqi was deeply moved by what he heard from Gu Jinlai.

If it were anyone else, wouldn't they seize the opportunity after acquiring a new territory and firmly grasp the power in their hands?

But Gu Jinlai he...

He truly is the person of hope I've set my sights on.

Xin Tianqi thought to himself.

Then he solemnly promised, "In that case, please rest assured, I will not let you down."

He shook the Spirit Sparrow Sword in his hand. "With this quasi-Dao artifact-level spirit sword, my combat power will definitely increase again. In addition, with the profoundness of the Taixi Dragon Transformation Technique, I will be no less than a top True Lord. I will guard Dragon Roar City well and not let it suffer any mishaps."

"I trust you."

Gu Jinlai nodded. "There is no time to lose. I will lead the troops out of the city now and strive to completely occupy Jiangzhou within the next month."
