The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 661: Chapter 661: Kill Him

Gu Yang, as a candidate for the Gu Family’s clan leader, naturally understood the situation regarding Gu Xinghe’s death and the pursuit of Jing Yan by his own family.

He knew Jing Yan had been hunted down by the ancestors of his family, ultimately driven into the Death Abyss, which was undoubtedly certain death.

The youth before him, judging by his tone of speech, seemed to be Jing Yan who had been driven into the Death Abyss. But Jing Yan was already dead and couldn’t possibly be standing in front of him.

Then who was this person, a member of the Jing Family?

But within the Jing Family, even the strongest had not reached the Daoist Master Realm, so how could they dare stand before him and speak in such a tone?

After these thoughts raced through his mind, Gu Yang steadied his spirit and quietly suppressed the panic in his heart. At the same time, he was angry at himself for his previous discomposure and lack of calm.

So what if this person truly was Jing Yan?

Even though Jing Yan was very strong, with two elders of Peak Dao King Realm Cultivation protecting him, even if Jing Yan were to come back to life, he would not be able to kill him.

”Boy, no matter who you are! You dare to speak to me like this, don’t even think about living,” Gu Yang said, regaining his haughty demeanor, his cold eyes scanning Jing Yan.

”Young master, be careful!” An elder from the Gu Family cautioned Gu Yang.

These two Peak Dao King Realm Gu Family elders also could not sense any Qi Fluctuation from Jing Yan’s body. But the less they could sense, the more careful they became.

They had seen Jing Yan flying towards them, confirming he was a Martial Artist. However, since they couldn’t sense any Qi Fluctuation from him, despite being Martial Artists of Peak Dao King Realm Cultivation, this was enough to indicate that there was an issue.

This seemingly young Martial Artist should not be taken lightly.

Gu Yang glanced at the elder who had reminded him to be careful, and his nerves, which had just relaxed, tightened once again.

Gu Yang was certainly not a simple pampered wastrel; although the family elder by his side had not said much, this simple reminder was enough to make him take it seriously.

He looked at Jing Yan with a renewed cautiousness.

”You ask who I am, I can tell you.”

”I am Jing Yan! The other candidate clan leader of your Gu Family, Gu Xinghe, was killed by me,” said Jing Yan, his tone indifferent.

”That’s impossible!” Gu Yang exclaimed subconsciously.

”Impossible? Heh, your Gu Family Ancestor, Gu Wanquan, that old bastard, was not able to kill me. Entering the Death Abyss, I certainly did not die,” Jing Yan said with a light chuckle.

”Since I didn’t die, it’s now your Gu Family’s turn to suffer. Gu Yang, in these ten years, you have been hunting Jing Family Disciples; you must’ve enjoyed it, right? You probably think that killing people from the Jing Family is a safe endeavor. With two Dao King Realm Martial Artists protecting you, your safety must be assured.”

”You’re wrong!” Jing Yan’s intent to kill started to solidify.

”Gu Yang, I’ll ask you a question, if your answer satisfies me, then maybe I can spare your tiny life,” said Jing Yan, taking a deep breath.

By this time, the standoff between Jing Yan and the three from the Gu Family had already drawn the attention of many adventurers in Black Stone Town.

Most of these adventurers had seen some action before. Even if they didn’t recognize the three from the Gu Family, they could tell that they were not to be trifled with.

So although they stopped to watch, no one dared to draw near, fearing being affected by the confrontation.

”What’s going on with those few? Could it be that a conflict has arisen between them?”

”It seems so, I wonder if they will start fighting.”

”Those three seem to be together, and on the other side, there seems to be just one person!”

Places like Black Stone Town were used to frictions among adventurers. If it happened within Donglin City, people would restrain themselves a bit, after all, life-and-death fights are generally prohibited inside the city, and the City Lord Mansion would not turn a blind eye if someone died.

But Black Stone Town was different. In Black Stone Town, it was very common for a few people to die.

”That... that’s Lord Gu Yang, isn’t it?” Someone recognized Gu Yang.

In fact, adventurers near Donglin City had seen Gu Yang quite frequently because he often dealt with local adventurers for the tasks of hunting Jing Family members.

Those who had dealings with Gu Yang were very aware of how terrifying he was. Even if they didn’t know Gu Yang’s identity, they knew his strength was formidable. The two old men with Gu Yang were even more extremely fearsome.

”Lord Gu Yang? Is that the same Lord Gu Yang who issued the task to hunt Jing Family members?” Someone who had never seen Gu Yang but had heard the name asked.

”Who else could it be? Lord Gu Yang does indeed come to Black Stone Town occasionally,” another person said, nodding and speaking in a low tone.

”This... this...”

”Who is the person confronting Lord Gu Yang? How dare he start a conflict with Lord Gu Yang?” someone asked in shock.

”Don’t know, but he’s doomed. The Martial Artists with Lord Gu Yang are incredibly powerful. Do you know Black Wolf? Black Wolf used to hunt Jing Family members, and when he went to collect Spirit Stones from Lord Gu Yang, just because he said something disrespectful... ” the person’s voice grew lower, ”By provoking Lord Gu Yang, Black Wolf, and his adventure group of more than fifty people were all killed by the two Martial Artists next to Lord Gu Yang, in the span of three breaths!”

After this statement, the surrounding crowd fell silent. The expressions on everyone’s faces turned grim.

They knew about Black Wolf.

Black Wolf was a rather formidable adventure team leader, with strong personal strength, having entered the Dao Spirit Realm. His adventure group also had many Innate Martial Artists.

Yet such an adventure group was exterminated in just two breaths’ time.

”In that case, that young man is indeed dead for sure!” After a moment, an abrupt voice spoke out.

”I... I’ve seen that young man!” Suddenly, another trembling voice spoke out.

Everyone looked toward the Martial Artist who had spoken.

”That man appeared in Black Stone Restaurant before, and he said that Donglin City would open immediately, and Donglin City did open. He also said that he was from the Jing Family! If he really is from the Jing Family, then his conflict with Lord Gu Yang makes sense,” said the warrior solemnly.

The surrounding adventurers were stunned.

”Kill him! Kill him!” Gu Yang roared out.

Upon Jing Yan revealing his identity, Gu Yang’s mind was completely unable to remain calm. Although he didn’t want to believe that the person in front of him was Jing Yan, his reason was telling him that the other party was telling the truth.

Exactly because of this, he was even more frightened.

Not dying after falling into the Death Abyss? This was simply an absurd story.

Before Gu Yang’s roar had faded away, the two Gu Family elders simultaneously made their move.

Jing Yan had brought them immense pressure.

With this attack, they made an all-out effort.

The two were Peak Dao King Realm.
