#75 - Once you see someone being bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of ropes for ten years

The experts of the Gu family scattered and fled.

There was no other way.

They had seen the lessons of the Medicine Emperor Sect with their own eyes.

They were afraid.

Although they had never seen the Soul Severing and Spirit Extinguishing Powder, they knew of it.

What if this wasn't the Soul Severing and Spirit Extinguishing Powder, but something even more dangerous?

They didn't want to be contaminated.

A group of people ran to a very distant location.

"Phew! Grand Elder, there shouldn't be any problems, right? We can gather tomorrow."

One expert looked at Gu Jinhe and asked.

"Well... there shouldn't be. After all, we released our spiritual power to blow away the Soul Severing and Spirit Extinguishing Powder. As long as it doesn't land on us, there shouldn't be any problems. Don't worry."

"That's true..." The old man nodded, then clenched his fist, his face full of resentment: "Xu Fengqiu is doomed! Since he chose to forcefully spread the poison, it means he has exhausted his tricks."

This old man's name was Gu Pingsheng, the father of Gu Fangzhou and the grandfather of Gu Changsheng.

His own son was killed, so he was definitely the most furious.

"Yes, not only Xu Fengqiu, but the entire Xu family cannot be spared. They are simply lawless," Grand Elder Gu Jinhe's eyes narrowed slightly.

Gu Jinhe looked at Gu Pingsheng and said, "Go and summon the experts who have left the Gu family in advance."

"Okay, I'll go then!"

Gu Pingsheng sped away.

Gu Jinhe's expression was solemn.

"Are we really not poisoned?"

He didn't know.

But he knew that even an undetectable speck of Soul Severing and Spirit Extinguishing Powder could invisibly poison people within a certain range.

Otherwise, the vast Medicine Emperor Sect wouldn't have been destroyed back then.

And Xu Fengqiu used four clones to scatter the Soul Severing and Spirit Extinguishing Powder from four directions.

He was so close to three of Xu Fengqiu's clones.

He only released his spiritual power to blow the powder away the last time.

Was it really safe?

He always felt that he might have been poisoned.

What should he do?

He was the Grand Elder, with a cultivation of the eighth rank of Immortal Emperor.

He still had hope of reaching the Supreme Immortal Emperor realm in this lifetime.

What if he accidentally got poisoned?

Wouldn't he be doomed?

Unable to mobilize spiritual power, his whole body would be paralyzed and weak. If he fought, he wouldn't even be able to run.

"This won't do, I really can't gamble."

Gu Jinhe frowned tightly.

Although he was a member of the Gu family, he was from the Gu family of ten thousand years ago.

What he cared about was only the reputation of the Gu family.

He hadn't even seen Gu Fangzhou a few times. Usually, Gu Jinhe was always cultivating.

He really didn't have much affection.

"Should I just forget it... I don't dare to gamble. I'll keep my life, and when I reach the Supreme Immortal Emperor realm, I'll destroy the Xu family to avenge him with my own strength. It's not impossible."

"That's right! The Gu family doesn't know what exactly happened to me, so they shouldn't mistake me for a cowardly deserter."

"Besides, there are Elder Yan and the others."

The Gu family had a total of four Immortal Emperors of the eighth rank, one of whom had advanced to the ninth rank of Immortal Emperor.

Losing one Immortal Emperor of the eighth rank wouldn't be a big problem.

If they destroyed the Xu family, he, Gu Jinhe, could simply injure himself and lie to them, saying that he was ambushed by the Xu family tonight and almost lost his life.

In this way, there would be no problem.

Yes!

That's what he'll do!

Gu Changsheng's grandfather, Gu Pingsheng, searched for a long time.

What the hell?

Where were those experts of the Gu family?

Why couldn't he find many of them?

Where had they all gone?

"Forget it, forget it. Anyway, we'll gather at Cangyun City at dawn tomorrow, and nothing unexpected should happen," Gu Pingsheng muttered.

"Xu Fengqiu, you killed my son, Gu Fangzhou, the head of the Gu family. Now your plan has failed. I'll see what you can do!"

A sinister light flashed in Gu Pingsheng's eyes.

Then he took out a sound transmission talisman and flicked it.

"Grandfather!"

Gu Changsheng's voice came.

Gu Pingsheng said, "Changsheng, are you at the Gu family?"

Gu Changsheng: "Yes, but it's a bit strange, Grandfather. Where have all the experts of the Gu family gone? Why haven't I seen them?"

Gu Pingsheng said: "That Xu Fengqiu is trying to repeat his old tricks, scattering Soul Severing and Spirit Extinguishing Powder on our Gu family. It was discovered in time. In order not to be poisoned, we have temporarily left the Gu family. We will gather at dawn tomorrow to attack the Xu family."

Gu Changsheng asked, biting his teeth, "Why not attack now?"

Gu Pingsheng: "Firstly, such a big battle requires some time to prepare. Secondly, an accident happened. Now the experts of the Gu family are scattered around the area. The order has already been issued. Gathering at Cangyun City at dawn is fine."

"Yes!"

Gu Pingsheng said: "You don't have to worry. The experts of the Gu family should all be around the Gu family, and people have been sent to keep an eye on the Xu family. As soon as there is any movement there, they can all rush back immediately. Even if you are poisoned in the Gu family, it doesn't matter. This poison is not fatal. You have no role in this battle. Just stay in the Gu family safely."

"Yes! Grandson understands."

...

Gu family.

Gu Changsheng stayed on the Young Master Peak.

He always felt that something was wrong.

He always felt that staying in the Gu family was unsafe.

Almost all the Immortal Emperors of the Gu family had gone out.

He felt very insecure.

"No, for safety's sake, I feel like I need to leave the Gu family first."

Gu Changsheng then left the Young Master Peak.

"Huh? Great Elder?"

Gu Changsheng saw a figure returning to the Gu family in the darkness.

"Young Master," the Great Elder smiled.

"Didn't you say that everyone had temporarily left the Gu family? What is the Great Elder doing here?"

The Great Elder stroked his beard and said, "Someone still needs to guard the Gu family, just in case."

"But what if the Gu family is now full of Soul Severing and Spirit Extinguishing Powder... Wouldn't the Great Elder be poisoned? How would you fight then?"

"Ah, it doesn't matter. Don't forget that I am an eighth-rank physician. I can't help others detoxify, but my own physique has already become immune to all poisons over the years."

Gu Changsheng nodded.

"Changsheng, where are you going...?"

Gu Changsheng said, "I'm... just taking a walk."

"Well, don't worry. The Gu family members are all around, and people have been sent to monitor the Xu family. As soon as there is any movement there, they can all rush over immediately."

"Yes!"

The Great Elder then walked away.

He didn't want to come back either.

But he had some precious things left in the Gu family.

So what if he got poisoned?

He would take the things away first and slip away.

He wouldn't fight tomorrow.

What if he was poisoned now? Wouldn't he be doomed tomorrow?

Losing one Immortal Emperor wouldn't matter.

When the Gu family won, he would injure himself and pretend to be ambushed by the Xu family tonight, which was why he couldn't fight.

The Gu family wouldn't suspect anything.

He didn't dare to gamble.

He always felt that he had been poisoned.

He would slip away first.

The next day.

Dawn.

Too many experts from all sides were waiting to watch the great battle between the Gu family and the Xu family.

Outside Cangyun City.

Gu Pingsheng stood here waiting.

One figure after another came to his side.

But...

That's not right.

Many people had come, but...

This was only one-tenth of the experts of the Gu family.

"Where are the people? Where are the people?"

The ninth-rank Immortal Emperor of the Gu family descended from the void, glanced at them, and frowned. Why were there only twenty or thirty Immortal Emperors?

And they were all the closer relatives of Gu Fangzhou's lineage.

Gu Fangzhou's elder brother, second brother, grandfather, great-grandfather, and the like.

"Where is Grand Elder Gu Jinhe? Wasn't he supposed to preside over the battle? Where did he go?" The ninth-rank Immortal Emperor frowned.

Everyone looked at each other.

It was already dawn.

Everyone couldn't have remembered wrong, right?

They should have come.

Why were there only so few of them?

They would be flattened by the Xu family.

Let alone attacking the Xu family.

"I'll ask," Gu Changsheng's grandfather, Gu Pingsheng, threw out a sound transmission talisman.

"Grandfather."

Gu Changsheng called out.

"Changsheng, have you seen the Grand Elder, Great Elder, and others of the Gu family?" Gu Pingsheng asked.

Gu Changsheng was not in the Gu family now.

He could only say, "Last night, I did see the Great Elder and some Immortal Emperors of the sect returning to the sect."

"I understand."

The sound transmission talisman disappeared.

"Why would they return to the sect? Aren't they afraid of being poisoned? Surely hundreds of Immortal Emperors haven't returned, right?" The ninth-rank Immortal Emperor frowned.

"Let's go and take a look first."
