"This..."
Gongsun Lü'e looked at Ye Zhuo with a surprised expression.
Are all young martial arts heroes these days so arrogant?
They dared to attack a behemoth in the martial arts world with only a dozen or so men.
They really thought the Heartless Valley was an easy target.
"It's alright. Go to the underground cave at Lich Peak first. Your mother isn't dead yet; she's trapped there by your father."
I'll go beat your dad to death first, and then I'll deal with all this trivial stuff.
Then, using the power of the Demon Cult, they were taken as disciples.
Ye Zhuo spoke with such seriousness that Gongsun Lü'e couldn't tell whether he was being silly or joking.
"Is Mother still alive?"
Of course.
Ye Zhuo left with a single sentence and then vanished.
Gongsun Lü'e paused for a moment, then headed towards the underground cave.
Unexpectedly.
Ye Zhuo had already appeared in the main hall of the Heartless Valley.
"It's almost lunchtime, and no one has served the food yet?"
Gongsun Zhi was in a bad mood. He had gone out to find some beautiful women a while ago, but ended up running into some trouble.
He had long wanted to join the ranks of the Five Greats, but unexpectedly, he was tricked by Zhou Botong.
When I got home, even the food was served so slowly; it really made me angrier and angrier.
"Do you think you're an emperor? You need a proper meal for lunch?"
The boy's voice was so loud that it hurt Gongsun Zhi's ears.
"I am the local tyrant of this Heartless Valley. What does it matter if there is chaos and war outside!"
Gongsun Zhi observed that even in the present day, wars rage everywhere in the world, and so-called emperors live in constant fear.
Did not the Southern Emperor Yideng also become a monk?
Over the past few decades, the Ye family's power has long since declined.
Fragmented and disjointed.
"Interesting."
Ye Zhuo looked at Gongsun Zhi, and then a dozen or so beautiful disciples appeared beside him, making Gongsun Zhi feel his blood boil just from smelling the different fragrances in the air.
"You're here to deliver a gift?"
Gongsun Zhi was overjoyed and immediately got up to welcome him.
Unexpectedly, Li Mochou skills had greatly increased, launched the first attack with her whisk.
Like a thousand needles and threads, in just one breath, Gongsun Zhi's head was riddled with holes.
The Eternal Youth and Everlasting Spring Skill Jade Maiden Manual.
This has made Li Mochou a completely different person now.
"Rubbish."
Ye Zhuo stepped on it, crushing Gongsun Zhi's corpse in one swift motion, thus resolving the problem once and for all.
"It saves trouble, and that way we can solve the problem once and for all."
Ye Zhuo looked around and thought that this Heartless Valley was nothing special.
This mere valley is less than one ten-thousandth the size of the Great Sun Palace, and far less impressive than Ye Zhuo's Pyramid Mausoleum.
After the Return of the Condor Heroes Era ended.
You absolutely must go to the Pyramid to see how your tomb is being built.
However, we'll have to wait a bit longer; the task isn't fully completed, and only some of the conditions have been met.
Killing Gongsun Zhi alone is not enough; Gongsun Lü'e must also be taken as a disciple.
I hope Gongsun Lü'e can understand that although he killed her father, it was all for her own good.
Outside the main hall.
More and more people are raising their arms, not to avenge Gongsun Zhi, but because of Gongsun Lü'e's mother, Qiu Qianchi!
For many years, she has been a bald old woman.
They survived by making Date Pit Nails.
Even Gongsun Zhi hadn't expected that his wife wouldn't be killed.
It's a pity.
Now, not only is Gongsun Zhi unable to find out, but even Qiu Qianchi herself is unable to avenge herself.
In the hall.
Blood mist surrounded Ye Zhuo, and there was a headless corpse beside him— Gongsun Zhi, who had just died.
"Who killed him! Who prevented me from avenging this blood feud!"
Qiu Qianchi asked the question knowingly, shouting loudly, which sounded particularly jarring.
"It's me, can't you see? Are you blind?"
Ye Zhuo disliked talking to this kind of person; they were always rambling and talked a lot of nonsense.
"Boy, even if you are nine feet tall and handsome, you cannot act recklessly in my Heartless Valley!"
This person is my blood feud, yet you killed him, denying me the chance to avenge my great grudge!
This is a harbinger of the rise of inner demons, truly despicable! If you don't marry into the Heartless Valley and take my daughter, then die!
The old woman Qiu Qianchi was prepared to attack with Date Pit Nails.
They even planned to use the Passion Flower Poison to keep Ye Zhuo and the others there.
"Your daughter will only become a disciple of my Demon Cult."
Marrying and having children? I am no longer the emperor of the Demon Kingdom.
Marrying into another family? What kind of trash is your Heartless Valley?
Ye Zhuo glanced at Qiu Qianchi, and a single look from him unleashed a terrifying killing intent.
"How can someone so young possess such terrifying killing intent!"
Qiu Qianchi was startled and broke out in a cold sweat. She was still shaken when she saw Ye Zhuo.
That look she just received was so terrifying that she no longer dared to even consider making a move.
Her intuition told her that if she dared to use Date Pit Nails, she would surely die!
"Old man, I'm taking Gongsun Lü'e away and making her my disciple."
Ye Zhuo a step forward and hoisted Gongsun Lü'e onto his shoulder.
"Old man, get out! I want to teach you martial arts!"
Ye Zhuo struck out with one hand, and the powerful internal force created a storm that directly sent everyone from the Heartless Valley, including Qiu Qianchi, flying away.
"To impart martial arts skills?"
Gongsun Lü'e couldn't see anything normal about him.
The Demon Cult sect disciples quickly formed a formation, protecting Ye Zhuo and Gongsun Lü'e within it.
There are more than ten Martial Dao Longevity Realm here.
No one in the world can go any further.
After all, the secret method of the Martial Dao Golden Core had already been passed on to those people, but it would still take at least several more decades before they could break through.
As for the Martial Dao Primordial Spirit Realm, he wouldn't even dare to dream of it.
"Master?"
"Please call me the leader of the Demon Cult Sect!"
Ye Zhuo quickly began practicing the Jade Maiden Manual and the Eternal Youth and Everlasting Spring Skill with Gongsun Lü'e.
This practice involves working day and night in a completely reversed, shrouded in mist and clouds.
Three days and three nights later.
When the old woman Qiu Qianchi appeared alone in the main hall, still shaken.
They saw Gongsun Lü'e, who was on the verge of death due to excessive cultivation.
"Mother, my skills have greatly improved."
Gongsun Lü'e was pale, but with just a period of recuperation to refine all her vital energy, she would be able to enter Transcendent Realm.
"It's all my fault for provoking such a reclusive master."
Qiu Qianchi glanced at Ye Zhuo, then lost all courage to resist.
"You can keep the Heartless Valley as you wish. It's time for us members of the Demon Cult to go and cultivate."
As soon as Ye Zhuo finished speaking, Mu Wanqing tossed a black robe to Gongsun Lü'e.
Among the crowd.
Mu Wanqing is probably the person who likes to wear black the most, and she is also the most suitable for it.
Everyone does this normally, just to save themselves trouble.
After all, they are all top-tier beauties.
When people gather together, it's easy for them to attract attention.
Let alone wearing a black robe, black stockings, and long boots, even just taking off a mask would easily attract the attention of passersby.
Therefore.
Even Ye Zhuo habitually wears all black.
[Bite!]

The Yue Maiden Sword Technique is powerful because it was a pioneering work.
Many people believe that in earlier times, people cultivated immortal techniques.
The rise of martial arts inherently meant the disappearance of the methods of Longevity Dao.
If Ye Zhuo hadn't possessed terrifying talent, he wouldn't have been able to create a realm beyond Martial Longevity.
The path of cultivation truly involves seizing the Creation of heaven and earth.
