"Tch, you wouldn't even kill me." Gu Yu muttered under his breath, a slight sneer on his lips.
"Really? Want to give it a try?"
Gu Xinglan flicked his finger, and a storm suddenly arose in the space. The storm seemed to have eyes and rushed straight towards Gu Yu!
The Gu Yu was scared away...
He shouted as he backed away, "Grandma, I was just kidding! I'm your only family in the Origin Realm. If I die, who will keep you company and keep you company? You'll be so lonely!"
Gu Xinglan pouted. "Who's your great-aunt!"
She raised her hand.
call...
The storm abruptly stopped, lingered for a moment in front of the Gu Yu, and then slowly dissipated.
Gu Yu broke out in a cold sweat!
He patted his wildly beating heart and let out a long sigh of relief.
After the false alarm, the guy grinned and said, "I knew you were kind-hearted, cousin. How could you bear to kill your only little brother? You were just trying to scare me. You're the most merciful cousin!"
Gu Xinglan muttered under her breath, "You bitch."
Gu Yu chuckled and said, "Thank you for your kind Golden Mouth and Jade Words. There's a state of being where utter shamelessness makes one invincible. I haven't reached that level yet, so it seems I still have a lot to work on!"
Gu Xinglan: "..."
She was utterly speechless at this guy's shamelessness...
"Don't think you can act so recklessly just because you're my cousin. Do you know why I brought you here?"
Gu Xinglan asked coldly.
Gu Yu tapped his scalp with his finger and answered confidently, "To help me escape the war!"
Gu Xinglan said, "You just stay here and guard Xuan Li's remains!"
"What? You want me to be with such a terrifying skeleton? No way! No way! Looking at it too much will give me nightmares..."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yu jumped up instantly, shaking his head repeatedly to express his dissatisfaction. However, under Gu Xinglan's clenched fist, his voice grew softer and softer until he finally bit his lip and dared not utter a sound.
When Xuan Li was involved, Gu Xinglan finally lost her temper. She suddenly raised her hand and ripped off the golden mask from her face. Her sharp phoenix eyes glared at Gu Yu, and she said angrily, "You'd better not mess with me!"
The oppressive aura of the Indestructible Saint Emperor descends!
The wind and clouds soared thousands of feet high!
Gu Yu was instantly terrified and trembled, feeling an urge to kneel down before her.
"Cousin, I was wrong, please don't be angry. I said the wrong thing, I... I apologize, okay? Please put your mask back on, that look in your eyes is kind of scary..."
Gu Yu hunched over, rubbing his hands, looking as if he were trembling with fear and repenting.
Gu Xinglan took a deep breath, calming the nameless anger in his heart, before putting his mask back on and regaining his dignified and imposing demeanor.
Having lived with him for so long, she knew Gu Yu's stubborn and unforgiving nature perfectly well. This kid weighed 130 pounds, but his rebellious streak was 120 pounds!
To put it nicely, it's called being cynical; to put it bluntly, it's just being despicable...
How utterly shameless!
Few people could easily anger her; Xie Feng was one, and Gu Yu was another.
The former is a threat in terms of intelligence and force.
The latter has neither intelligence nor martial prowess, yet a single casual remark can enrage her.
Especially...
After disregarding Xuan Li's remains...
This is her Achilles' heel!
Realizing she had really angered her cousin, Gu Yu shrank back and finally shut her mouth.
But after a short while, he couldn't resist anymore.
"Cousin, please let me go back. I still need to practice my swordsmanship. If I don't learn it, the elders will punish me!"
Gu Yu pleaded.
Gu Xinglan pointed to the ground and said calmly, "Practice right here!"
"I... I can't learn it..."
"Why?"
"I'm not familiar with this place, I don't feel that way."
"If I weren't here watching you, you would definitely try to find a way to escape, wouldn't you?"
Gu Xinglan looked up at him, her tone somewhat aggressive.
Gu Yu was honest and straightforward; he said whatever came to mind, nodding firmly, "Absolutely!"
Gu Xinglan remained silent.
Gu Yu tentatively asked, "You're not going to send a few big shots to keep an eye on me, are you?"
"Won't."
"Would they chain me up so I couldn't move?"
"Won't."
"Just let me go. I'm really just a nobody; I can't sway anyone!"
Gu Yu pleads.
Gu Xinglan sighed softly, then slowly raised her right hand and lightly slapped Gu Yu.
The palm print was crackling with lightning!
ah!!
The palm struck Gu Yu, sending arcs of lightning flying. He screamed in agony as his hair exploded and his eyes glazed over, revealing a dazed state of being utterly annihilated.
"Why did you hit me again for no reason!" Gu Yu was going crazy. He jumped up and down to express his dissatisfaction. Suddenly, he seemed to freeze, his hands and feet remaining still, and his face changed drastically!
"No, no way..."
Gu Yu swallowed hard, then reached out and touched his entire body.
He turned ashen-faced!
Gu Xinglan stood calmly, as if these changes were all within her expectations.
"You destroyed my cultivation?!"
Gu Yu looked up, shocked and angry, and questioned.
That palm strike annihilated all his cultivation!
His cultivation level has been achieved through more than twenty years of arduous practice!
The Gu Yu collapsed.
Being a piece of trash is worse than being killed!
Gu Xinglan's expression remained unchanged; she was as adept at crippling cultivation as eating and drinking.
Even though the other person was her cousin!
She approached the Gu Yu and tossed a scroll over.
"Master the Ancient God Secret Art diligently. If you achieve mastery, your cultivation will be a hundred times greater than it is now!"
She said calmly.
Gu Yu stood there for a moment, collapsing as he opened the " Ancient God Secret Art." There was nothing he could do; he couldn't win even if he tried, so he could only accept his fate!
"To practice this skill, one must first abandon one's cultivation..."
His lips trembled slightly. "Don't tell me you crippled me just to practice this kind of Cultivation Method?"
Gu Xinglan shook his head. "Crippling you was just a momentary lapse of judgment on my part; I was simply angered. Allowing you to Cultivation Method is because you are family to me, so this is compensation."
"Is it better to mend the fence after the sheep are lost?"
It's never too late to mend the fence after the sheep are lost.
"..."
Gu Yu moved his lips, gave a silent, bitter smile, and with a flick of his hand, tossed the Ancient God Secret Art aside.
I don't care!
"If you don't cultivate this, you will die."
"What if I master it?"
"I stripped them of their will and turned them into my most loyal henchmen."
"Did you plan this all along?"
Gu Yu gritted his teeth. Right now, he was being brutally beaten by Gu Xinglan, both physically and mentally.
This also taught him a lesson: nothing is completely reliable. Even family and friends can reveal a side that is unfamiliar and frightening when interests are involved!
He will remember this day forever!
Unforgettable!
He will never make the same mistake again!
Gu Xinglan shook his head. "This wasn't my premeditated plan, nor was it something I just came up with. Although I now possess the Devil Subduing Realm and the Alliance, those people are all opportunists; I have no true friends. After much thought, you are the only one I can truly trust!"
