Jiang Xukong's Severed Arm

Gu Qingfeng was startled. He had been caught red-handed for speaking ill of the old man. If he were to be sued by the old man, he would definitely be in big trouble.

"Hahaha!"

Gu Qingfeng quickly chuckled and then looked at Gu Lingfeng, who was leading several guards in.

"Oh, it's Second Brother! What brings you here today?"

"Your legs are very precious. You've never set foot here before. Did you get your head caught in a door when you went out last night?"

Although Gu Qingfeng was worried that Gu Lingfeng would report him behind his back, he didn't like his Second Brother at all, and he never said anything nice to him.

Once he catches you red-handed, no matter how much you beg for mercy, that bastard will still tattle on you to his grandfather. He's a complete scoundrel.

Gu Lingfeng looked at Gu Qingfeng with a forced smile and said jokingly, "Fourth brother, your Second Brother admires you very much!"

I really admire you!

"He even dares to say bad things about Grandpa. I'll have a good talk with him later and let him know how capable our fourth son is!"

Hehehehe!

"Hmph! Fine, I'll say it. At worst, I'll get a beating!" Gu Qingfeng raised his chin and said defiantly.

"Heh, you're awesome, you're awesome. At worst you'll get a beating."

That wasn't just a normal beating!

Gu Lingfeng gave Gu Qingfeng a fake thumbs-up.

"Stop spouting this nonsense. Tell me, what brings you here, Third Sister Tian?"

I don't believe you're hiding anything good!

"You, fourth brother, watch your manners. Is your Second Brother really that despicable in your eyes?"

"We're brothers, and I'm your Second Brother, so you need to be mindful of seniority!"

He then turned to look at Gu Hongyan, a fawning smile on his face.

"Third sister, your Second Brother has come to pick you up. Grandpa wants to see you!"

"Heh, Grandpa wants to see Third Sister? This is like the sun rising in the west. That old man is probably scared, isn't he?"

"Fourth brother, you're not allowed to talk about Grandpa like that, or he'll skin you alive!" Gu Lingfeng threatened.

"Oh, I'm not afraid at all. Right now, Grandpa is worried about getting his skin peeled off, isn't he?"

"Having committed such a heinous act, can't others even speak of it?"

Gu Hongyan grabbed Gu Qingfeng and said, "Little brother, watch your words. He is, after all, your grandfather!"

"Hmph! You did something wrong, and you're not allowed to let others say it?"

"Third sister, all the suffering you've endured is entirely thanks to him!"

"Just because he couldn't latch onto someone's coattails, he's so heartless towards you. He doesn't deserve to be a grandfather!"

"Fourth brother, you're getting more and more Lawless Heaven! How dare you talk about your grandfather like this? Let's see how you get out of this mess!"

Gu Lingfeng was also angry. This kid must have taken the wrong medicine. How dare he speak so recklessly and be so arrogant? What makes him so confident?

When his gaze fell on Gu Hongyan again, he felt a chill run down his spine.

It's confirmed. No wonder Lao Si dared to be so arrogant all day long; the root of the problem lies here.

Hua Xingchen arrived, bringing her son with her. The son's biological mother was none other than her third sister.

The third sister and the fourth brother have the best relationship; you could say they are the only two who are truly close in the family!

Oh no! If the fourth brother says something bad about Hua Qiang, he'll be torn to pieces.

Hehehe!

Gu Lingfeng's smile widened, as if he wanted to lick it.

"Um... if Second Brother has done something inappropriate, please forgive him, Third Sister."

You know, Second Brother had no choice in the matter!

"In this family, my grandfather is the one who has the final say, my father holds all the power in the middle, and my First Elder son is the one who puts me down."

"There are some things I wouldn't dare to do even if I wanted to!"

"Well... Third Sister, you really can't take your anger out on Second Brother."

My Second Brother is a heartless bastard, unloved by either his maternal grandmother or his paternal uncles. Besides, he's never done anything to wrong you, my Second Brother, all these years, has he?

Hahaha... Gu Qingfeng laughed.

"Second Brother, you seem guilty. Let me tell you, when I see my nephew, I will tell him all about your and Eldest Brother's glorious deeds over the years!"

Thump!

Gu Lingfeng felt his legs go weak and he fell to the ground.

"Fourth brother, please forgive your Second Brother this time. Your Second Brother didn't hear or see anything just now. Really, your Second Brother will never go to Grandpa to tattle."

"Actually, even if your Second Brother tattled on you, I doubt Grandpa would dare to do anything to you, since you have your third sister backing you up."

"Grandpa is terrified right now, and he's counting on Third Sister to save him!"

"It seems... Second Brother, you're not stupid after all. You know about that old man's current predicament?"

"Hehe, Second Brother isn't stupid. Anyone with eyes can see that clearly!"

"Um, Third Sister, please come with Second Brother. Grandpa really wants to see you!"

"He's our grandfather after all. Without him, we wouldn't exist. We're all family; even if we're broken, our bones are still connected!"

"That old codger is too ashamed to come here in person. As the younger generation, shouldn't we at least give him some face?"

Gu Lingfeng was also afraid that Gu Hongyan would hold a grudge against her grandfather for what he had done to her over the years, so he began to speak to her gently and play the emotional card.

Although the old man was ruthless and went to extremes, he wasn't so ruthless as to be completely insane. After all, he spared the newborn baby back then.

Gu Hongyan was eager to see Hua Xingchen and her son, so she didn't care about anything else and said, "Second Brother, lead the way!"

"Okay, okay, Third Sister, please come with your Second Brother!"

"Grandpa... after all, he is our elder. No matter how much resentment you feel, you should be forgiving and not let outsiders laugh at you!"

Gu Hongyan nodded. Although she had suffered for so many years, she couldn't possibly be so heartless as to go to such lengths.

Moreover, she willingly endured most of this hardship.

If she were in his shoes, she could understand Gu Qingshu's anger back then.

Outside Heaven Pillar Peak, Hua Qiang and Jiang Xukong clasped hands again.

He unleashed the powerful [Heaven-Slaying Draw Sword Technique] once again.

In an instant, dark clouds surged in the sky, lightning bolts darted about, and the enormous blade of light, carrying the terrifying power of apocalyptic Tribulation Lightning, struck Jiang Xukong with lightning speed.

Faced with Hua Qiang's World-destroying attack, this powerful figure, possessing the power of the Half-Saint Realm, mobilized all his Spiritual Power and unleashed a variety of powerful magical treasures.

Amidst the flashes of light, defensive shields and offensive magical artifacts intertwined to create a dazzling display of light and shadow.

However, Hua Qiang's attack was simply too powerful.

Under Hua Qiang's flash of light, these things were all shattered into fragments and scattered in the air.

Jiang Xukong gritted his teeth and once again used his strongest trump card— the Void Domain.

The Void Domain unfolded, and the surrounding space seemed to be distorted, and time seemed to slow down.

Within the Void Domain, Jiang Xukong constantly shifted his form, attempting to evade the deadly blade's edge.

Hua Qiang's [Heaven-Slaying Draw Sword Technique] seemed to have locked onto Jiang Xukong; no matter how he dodged, the blade's light relentlessly pursued him.

Finally, with a deafening roar, the enormous blade of light shattered Jiang Xukong's layers of defenses and severed one of his arms.
