Thump thump thump...
The sounds of people falling to the ground rose and fell as Gu Chen had already reached the vicinity of the VIP room and office in the black market.
There were indeed few people in the black market today, and no underground fights or transactions, but it was filled with quite a few black market henchmen. Although they recognized Gu Chen and Ma Gang, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and charge forward.
"Who goes there, so arrogant!"
Just then, several martial artists appeared in front of Gu Chen from a distance.
The burly man at the head of the group, dressed in a tight fur coat and exuding explosive muscles, stood in front of Gu Chen with a disdainful look on his face and said, "Where did this punk come from, daring to cause trouble on our turf?"
Gu Chen noticed an embroidered mark on his chest, shaped like a piece of black iron, and said calmly, "Are you from the Water Cloud Sect?"
"That's right, Grandpa is Ye Canghong of the Water Cloud Sect!"
"Very good!"
Gu Chen's eyes turned cold, and then he leaped towards the man. Without any visible movement from his hands, bang!
The next second, the burly man was sent flying, his body slamming into the wall behind him. The entire basement seemed to shake slightly, and his chest caved in as he crashed heavily to the ground, unable to get up.
"M D..."
Ye Canghong gritted his teeth, his venomous gaze fixed on Gu Chen as if he wanted to devour him alive.
"Watch your mouth next time." Gu Chen looked at him coldly, then stepped on him.
The sound of bones breaking rang out; two of Ye Canghong's ribs had been broken by Gu Chen's kick!
hiss--
The remaining martial artists gasped in shock; they hadn't expected Gu Chen to be not only arrogant but also so ruthless!
After he finished doing all this, the martial artists around him all made way for him, and dared not stop him anymore.
Gu Chen went straight to the office, which used to be Lu Fan's place, but it was now clearly under the control of an elder of the Water Cloud Sect. However, before he could open the door, it opened automatically, and an old woman walked out. She was not tall, her back was slightly hunched, and her face was full of coldness.
The old woman was dressed in a long robe like those from the Song Dynasty; her hair was gray, and there was a sinister look between her brows.
When she saw Ye Canghong lying on the ground in the distance, her expression changed instantly. Her gaze swept sharply towards Gu Chen a few meters away, and she coldly asked, "Did you do this?"
"How is it?" Gu Chen asked calmly.
"Boss, this is one of the elders of the Water Cloud Sect; she's Grandmaster Realm!"
At this moment, Ma Gang, who was behind them, shouted.
"You ant, you dare to come back?" The old woman recognized Ma Gang, then, as if remembering something, looked at Gu Chen and said, "So, you're Gu Chen?"
"Not bad." Gu Chen said calmly, "Where is Zhao Bo from my Heavenly Pivot Sect?"
"Ridiculous!" The old woman scoffed, interrupting her rudely, "Heavenly Pivot Sect, what a load of rubbish! Only a fool like Lu Fan would believe that. Wasn't it you who made the call just now? I didn't expect you to be so bold as to actually come here."
"I don't usually say it a third time." Gu Chen looked down at the old woman and asked, "Where's Zhao Bo?"
"What an arrogant brat!"
Enraged by Gu Chen's attitude, the old woman roared, her robes billowing without wind, and the aura emanating from the Revolving Illumination Realm instantly swept across the entire space.
Moreover, this flow of energy also carried a hint of coldness and chill, which was likely the cultivation technique practiced by the old woman.
It is said that the ultimate martial art of the Water Cloud Sect is called the "Water Cloud Mental Cultivation Method". When it is used, it can indeed condense water into ice and turn vapor into water.
Under such an aura, even from a great distance, Ma Gang felt his heart tremble and his back go cold.
Gu Chen's gaze also sharpened slightly. Compared to Zhao Bo, this old woman, although both were at the Early Revolving Illumination Realm, was indeed much stronger. After all, Zhao Bo was a latecomer to the sect and had only received Gu Chen's modified "Undying Divine Skill" for less than a month. The old woman's aura continued to rise, and after gradually increasing, she seemed to be even stronger than Jiang Yi of the Steel Tremor Sect.
"Kid, still dare to be so arrogant?"
The old woman leaned on her cane, and as her robes fluttered in the wind, her expression was one of extreme arrogance.
"Hehe!"
Gu Chen smiled faintly, without answering, but his actions spoke volumes!
Boom!
At that moment, his aura was also released!
Unlike the old woman, Gu Chen did not deliberately suppress his aura. Instead, his aura rose rapidly and his aura swept out fiercely, like a sharp sword breaking through ice, directly shattering the aura that the old woman had been creating for so long!
The old woman's chest jolted, as if struck by an invisible ripple. She staggered back several steps before regaining her balance. At that moment, not only did her suppressive aura towards Gu Chen vanish, but she herself was like a flower in a storm, swaying precariously!
The old woman looked up, her face filled with horror as she stared at Gu Chen!
"You..."
Before he could finish speaking, a "pfft" sound rang out as he spat out a mouthful of blood!
Without even making a single move, he injured an elder of the Water Cloud Sect!
Ma Gang watched in utter disbelief, completely dumbfounded!
He had witnessed the elder's power firsthand; even in a one-on-one fight, Zhao Bo couldn't last more than fifty moves against her!
But now, Gu Chen is so domineering!
"You little brat, you're asking for it!"
Another aura of the Revolving Illumination Realm surged into the sky, and then an old man walked out of the office. He first glanced at the old woman, then reached out to help her up, before turning to face Gu Chen, his eyes brimming with killing intent!
Two martial artists at the Revolving Illumination Realm have arrived from the Water Cloud Sect, leaving this old man all alone!
The old woman gritted her teeth and said, "Senior brother, let's kill him together!"
However, as soon as she uttered this harsh remark, she noticed that the old man didn't move; instead, he abruptly stopped moving.
She looked up at the old man, only to find his eyes filled with terror!
Not just shocked, but horrified!
What happened?
The old woman was puzzled, but when they both turned their gazes at the same time, the same expression appeared on their faces!
A broken sword suddenly appeared beside Gu Chen!
Although it is a broken sword, it still gleams coldly, and the broken edge is still extremely sharp!
These two elders of the Water Cloud Sect had both reached the Revolving Illumination Realm, so their knowledge was naturally extraordinary. What terrified them was not the shape of the broken sword, but that the broken sword was actually floating!
The sword's edge pointed, and a chilling aura emanated from it!
"Sword control... Sword Control Technique?!"
The old woman's heart churned with shock, and she cried out in horror!
"Disease!"
Gu Chen exhaled!
Whoosh!
The next second, the Dragon Scale Sword sped towards the old man, and in an instant, it passed straight past his head!
A few strands of hair dripped from the ends, accompanied by the old man's cold sweat!
Fast, too fast!
He knew that Gu Chen had shown mercy; otherwise, that sword strike would have definitely taken his life!
Although they and Gu Chen were both at the same Revolving Illumination Realm, the difference in their martial arts skills was enormous!
"I'll spare your life for now. If anything happens to Zhao Bo, then I'll use you as a sacrifice to the sword."
Gu Chen brushed past the two men and entered the office. At this moment, the two elders, like two doormen and guards, were stiff and dared not move under the pressure of the Dragon Scale Sword!
