And Tian Dang's confident words had not been wrong...
In Central Heaven Divine Province, the Gu Family had been crushed.
Over these three thousand years, the Shenyu Military Court had been beaten into disarray. The True Spirit Heavenly Dragon and True Spirit Earth Tiger had protected Gu Shenyu as he fled in all directions. It was said that he had escaped beyond the Nine Provinces and no longer dared return. His prestige had fallen into the abyss.
The Seven Great God Clans of the Divine Land had also been beaten down to five great clans, becoming remarkably quiet.
The disciples of the Fu Shi Religion were dumbfounded as well... Their in-laws had run away?!
However, Spirit Void Saint Province was still managed quite well, impregnable as a fortress and retaining its prestige. No army of cultivators dared attack it, though heaven-shaking grand arts were often unleashed above its skies. No one knew what they were doing.
Above a stretch of sea.
Several hundred weathered cultivators were scattered about. Limitless Child sat cross-legged atop the waves, his expression carrying a trace of helplessness. "Gu Shenyu..."
Just as the other cultivators sighed inwardly, believing Limitless Child was still "mourning" Gu Shenyu and preparing to praise his loyalty and righteousness in their hearts.
Limitless Child slowly closed his eyes as though desperately suppressing something, then ground out a sentence through clenched teeth:
"Fuck you...!"
The cultivators: "..."
Gu Shenyu's tragic state was not much better than theirs. He fled like a rat, countless pursuers on his heels. Had the Gu Family and Fu Shi Religion not held back those Immortals, he doubted he could have even left the Nine Provinces Territory.
His great undertaking had yet to succeed... yet he had already perished midway.
Today.
