"You, you all..."
Although Ye Fei and the other person thought their actions were perfectly normal.
But Liu Changqing found it utterly unbelievable!
A dignified elder of the Water Cloud Sect actually begged for mercy from this villain! Apologized to him! Begged for his forgiveness!
Has this world gone mad?!
"What do you mean, 'we'?" The old woman glared fiercely at Liu Changqing, her eyes icy cold, and said, "We'll pretend we didn't see what happened today. Your Liu Family brought this upon yourselves, and it has nothing to do with our Water Cloud Sect."
Liu Changqing was both shocked and furious. Although he didn't understand the reason, there was one thing he was clear about: these two from the Water Cloud Sect would never help him!
The next moment, before he could finish thinking, Gu Chen's sword didn't stop at all and shot out again, piercing Liu Changqing's throat!
Liu Changqing's body jolted as Gu Chen's longsword pierced his throat, blood gushing out like a spurt. His body trembled slightly before collapsing limply to the ground.
From this moment on, the two most powerful members of the Liu Family are now dead and lying motionless on the ground.
Having done all this, Gu Chen gave a cold look and then looked at the remaining martial artists of the Liu Family.
The murderous intent in those eyes was chilling.
At this moment, an unremarkable-looking man stepped out from among the Liu Family warriors, stared coldly at Gu Chen, and said, "Boy, you certainly have guts, daring to wipe out the entire Liu Family."
Even after Liu Changqing and Liu Dongyuan died, this man's face remained unchanged. Now, however, his voice was sinister, laced with murderous intent.
All of this seemed to be within Gu Chen's expectations. He glanced at the man with a calm expression and said indifferently, "You are not a member of the Liu Family."
"That's right!" the man said coldly. "You really were the one who killed Jiang Yi, weren't you?"
"Are you from the Steel Tremor Sect?" Gu Chen looked at the man coldly and said, "I noticed you a long time ago."
Upon hearing this, not only was the man taken aback, but Ye Fei and the other man behind him also tensed up.
Steel Tremor Sect? He's actually mixed in with the Liu Family!
This martial artist was not only unremarkable in appearance, but also dressed very simply. It was hard to imagine that he was actually a member of the Steel Tremor Sect!
"You saw through it all along?" The Steel Tremor Sect warrior was also surprised, then sneered, "What a boast! My cultivation isn't high, not as good as Jiang Yi's. I blended in here pretending to be Liu Family, and even Liu Dongyuan didn't notice. How could you have found out?"
"Just a matter of self-awareness," Gu Chen said calmly. "When I killed them, everyone else was already afraid, but you weren't."
"Are you from the Steel Tremor Sect?" At that moment, Ye Fei's heart tightened, and he suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
As a top-tier two-star sect in Huaxia, the Steel Tremor Sect is far superior to their Water Cloud Sect!
This means that this person witnessed his attempt to reconcile with Gu Chen!
"Not bad!" The man sneered and said to Ye Fei, "Your Water Cloud Sect is really something, actually colluding with this person. The Zhou Family is just a pawn of our Steel Tremor Sect in the secular world; their loss is no big deal. But Jiang Yi is one of our Steel Tremor Sect's elders, and he actually died because of your scheme!"
Ye Fei broke out in a cold sweat and said, "Fellow Daoist, I am..."
"No explanation needed!"
The Steel Tremor Sect warrior coldly interrupted, saying, "I originally thought that Elder Jiang's death was the work of this one person, framing Wuji Manor, but I didn't expect that your Water Cloud Sect was actually involved!"
"This..."
Ye Fei and the old woman exchanged a glance, and suddenly a murderous intent surged in their eyes!
Since we can't explain it, then kill this person!
"What? You want to attack me!" The Steel Tremor Sect warrior knew exactly what they were thinking, and sneered, "I've already sent a video of today's events to my companions. Although I'm not very strong, I represent the Steel Tremor Sect! Besides, they're in Zhou City and should be arriving soon!"
Ye Fei and the old woman were about to make a move, but hesitated upon hearing these words.
They were inwardly groaning, never expecting that their attempt to curry favor with Gu Chen would drag the Steel Tremor Sect into the mess. And this time, it wasn't just the Steel Tremor Sect, but also the Liu Family; they'd probably offended everyone involved.
Ye Fei was in a state of turmoil, trying to think of a solution. His gaze swept over Gu Chen, but he was suddenly startled.
Because on Gu Chen's face, there was not a trace of panic. He remained as calm as ever, as if the person standing in front of him was not a martial artist from the Steel Tremor Sect, but an ordinary person.
Moreover, he didn't seem to take the words of the Steel Tremor Sect warrior to heart at all!
Yes, and there's also the Heavenly Pivot Sect!
This guy is the sect leader of the Heavenly Pivot Sect, and he comes from the Land of Heaven and Earth. He has so many powerful figures behind him, and he also has a master!
For a moment, Ye Fei was filled with confidence!
Since things have already come to this, he can only rely on the Heavenly Pivot Sect now, so he might as well just give up and do whatever he wants!
"Others may fear your Steel Tremor Sect, but our Water Cloud Sect may not!" Ye Fei coldly looked at the man and said, "If you have any last words, just say them. After you're done, Sect Master Gu will send you on your way!"
"You!"
If it were Gu Chen, it would be one thing, but the Steel Tremor Sect warriors never expected that Ye Fei would dare to be so arrogant, still spouting wild words after hearing their message.
His attitude showed that he didn't take the Steel Tremor Sect seriously at all. It was like a slap in the face, burning with pain!
"Even if you were the sect leader of the Water Cloud Sect, you wouldn't dare speak to me like that!" the Steel Tremor Sect warrior said coldly. "What audacity!"
Ye Fei sneered, looking at him with an expression as if he were an idiot, and said, "Do you still need to ask that? Jiang Yi of your Steel Tremor Sect was killed by Sect Master Gu. We are on the same side as Sect Master Gu. Since we've already torn off all pretense, what else is there to say?"
"It seems your Water Cloud Sect has quite the ambition!"
The man was furious and said, "What, you think this kid can protect you?"
"Ha ha ha ha..."
Ye Fei laughed loudly, saying, "Protect? Let me tell you, Sect Master Gu is my friend. Your Jiang Yi dares to oppose Sect Master Gu; he's courting death! Since you sent the video back, I'm not afraid to tell you: if your Steel Tremor Sect doesn't want to end up like the Liu Family, then you'd better kowtow and apologize now; it's not too late!"
"That's incredibly audacious!"
The warriors of the Steel Tremor Sect were enraged.
Gu Chen watched the two bickering and suddenly felt speechless.
When did Ye Fei become so familiar with me? Speaking up for me like this, anyone who didn't know better would think he had a really deep relationship with the Water Cloud Sect.
Keep in mind that they had just clashed that morning, and he had almost killed them.
The Steel Tremor Sect warrior trembled with rage, coldly saying, "Fine, then we'll see! Gu Chen, the Water Cloud Sect, and the people of my Steel Tremor Sect will arrive! Just you wait!"
"Sect Master Gu."
Seeing him about to leave, Ye Fei panicked and quickly called out, "This man is stubborn and inflexible; please give me your instructions."
Gu Chen glanced at him, a half-smile on his face, and said, "Elder Ye, you certainly have a silver tongue."
"Isn't this showing concern for Sect Master Gu?"
Ye Fei gave an awkward smile.
Gu Chen ignored Ye Fei and instead looked at the back of the Steel Tremor Sect warrior, then a cold expression appeared on his lips.
"Whoosh!"
A burst of energy whistled through the air and slammed into the heel of the Steel Tremor Sect Steel Tremor Sect warrior, smashing a hole in it. The warrior was startled and stopped in his tracks.
"Did I let you leave?" Gu Chen's voice rang out calmly.
