#76 - Gu Family Ancestor: Ah? I am not a human?

On the other side.

Grand Elder Gu Jinhe had already run far away.

He was about three hundred kilometers away from the Gu family, in a riverside area.

Facing him, he saw a seemingly familiar figure fishing by the river.

"Old Yan?"

Gu Jinhe was stunned.

This Old Yan was one of the Gu family's eighth-order Immortal Emperors, and also a Grand Elder.

Old Yan of the Gu family shuddered and turned to look at Gu Jinhe.

Both of them instantly showed embarrassed expressions.

"Elder Jin, shouldn't you be in charge of the overall situation of the Gu family?" Old Yan asked.

Gu Jinhe said with a guilty conscience: "Ah... yes, hey, cough, cough, cough--"

He quickly coughed a few times, and then said: "This Xu Fengqiu's methods are simply heaven-defying. After everyone separated last night, we were supposed to gather in Cangyun City at dawn today, but Xu Fengqiu led people to besiege this old man. This old man was seriously injured and fled all the way here, finally shaking them off, cough cough."

Old Yan: "..."

"Old Yan, what is this?" Gu Jinhe asked.

"Cough, cough, cough--"

Old Yan immediately coughed as well: "It... it turns out that it wasn't just this old man who encountered this, Elder Jin also encountered it? Cough cough--"

Gu Jinhe: "..."

Gu Jinhe: "So... Old Yan was also chased and killed by Xu Fengqiu?"

"Yes, I also happened to run to this side, seriously injured, fishing... This old man is not really fishing, I just saw that there was no one around, so I sat for a while to recuperate."

Old Yan was also speechless.

He was worried about being poisoned, so he thought it would be safer to slip away first.

Anyway, even without him, an eighth-order Immortal Emperor, they could still destroy the Xu family.

When the Gu family wins, he will explain that he was chased and killed by Xu Fengqiu and was seriously injured.

If the Gu family loses, then he can't be blamed, right?

Since they lost, an eighth-order Immortal Emperor like him can't turn the tide, right? Yes, that's how it is.

He is an eighth-order Immortal Emperor, he can't die.

He just didn't expect that this Grand Elder Gu Jinhe had the same idea as him.

This is embarrassing.

Two eighth-order Immortal Emperors are missing.

It should... not be a big problem.

After all, there is still a ninth-order Immortal Emperor.

And there is also an eighth-order Immortal Emperor.

Gu Jinhe nodded.

In fact, both of them understood each other's intentions.

"Then... then I'll go heal my injuries. I'll recuperate for a while and then go attack the Xu family." Gu Jinhe said.

"Yes, this old man will too. Elder Jin, be careful not to encounter Xu Fengqiu's people again." Old Yan said.

"Yes, Old Yan too. This Xu Fengqiu is not simple."

"Indeed, farewell."

... ...

Gu family.

A group of strong people didn't dare to go in, they only dared to stay outside.

After all, they were worried that the Gu family was now full of Heart Severing Soul Extinguishing Powder.

And what was very strange was that.

They used sound transmission talismans to contact those people, but they couldn't contact any of them.

What's going on?

They sent one person in to check.

Some of the strong people from various sects who came to watch the show were confused.

What is the Gu family doing?

They're dragging their feet.

Hurry up and start a war with the Xu family.

Soon, that strong person ran out.

"Where are the people?" the ninth-order Immortal Emperor asked.

"I don't know, they're all gone, I don't know where they went."

Everyone frowned.

Ah?

They're all gone?

Didn't they say they were back?

What did they come back for?

Even if they came back, they went out again.

They should have gathered.

Gu Pingsheng looked dazed.

These people... didn't they run away, did they?

Ah?

Wouldn't they run away because they were worried about being poisoned by Xu Fengqiu?

Yes!

It is very normal for those strong people outside the Gu family to run away.

As long as they don't care about their face and reputation.

These strong people joined the Gu family because they saw that the Gu family was strong.

Similar to the disciples of various sects.

It's just that they are strong people.

The Gu family gives them resources, gives them a backer, and they just need to contribute when they fight.

This is also what every force needs.

Because for any force, if you rely on your own family, you will never be too strong.

They all need to absorb talents.

These people were given a chance to escape last night, and they did run away easily.

Normally, if they started fighting directly, they would have no chance or would not dare to run.

Then it doesn't matter if they run away.

The Gu family's combat power is only reduced by a section.

Why are so many strong people from the Gu family gone?

Where is Grand Elder Gu Jinhe, who is responsible for presiding over the overall situation?

Where is Old Yan?

Where are the two eighth-order Immortal Emperors?

No!

All three eighth-order Immortal Emperors are gone?

Only the ninth-order Immortal Emperor, this old ancestor, is still here?

The corner of that ninth-order Immortal Emperor's mouth twitched.

Damn it!

Bastards!

All three of you eighth-order Immortal Emperors ran away.

Can I, a ninth-order Immortal Emperor, defy the heavens?

Ah?

Am I not human?

What to do?

We can't fight anymore.

A bunch of beasts, damn it!

Then he, the ninth-order Immortal Emperor of the Gu family, definitely can't run away.

If he runs away, wouldn't the Gu family be completely gone?

How can these people be so cruel as to abandon their own family?

Did Xu Fengqiu really give them such a big deterrent force?

It's okay if those who joined the Gu family ran away, why did these BYD of the Gu family also run away?

They don't care about their own family?

Isn't this a joke?

"No..."

An Immortal Emperor who joined the Gu family fifty years ago looked at everyone in a daze.

Ah?

They all ran away?

Why didn't he think of running away?

A bunch of beasts, damn it!

So many Gu family members have run away, what is he, a non-Gu family member, doing here?

Is he the only clown left?

"A bunch of beasts! A bunch of beasts! It's one thing to be ridden on and shat on by others, but you don't even want your own face. The Gu family, today, regardless of success or failure, will become a laughing stock of the continent."

Gu Pingsheng said with gritted teeth.

Everyone looked at the ninth-order Immortal Emperor: "Old Ancestor, what should we do now? If this is the case, our Gu family can't beat the Xu family, let alone destroy the Xu family."

Ka Ka Ka--

The ninth-order Immortal Emperor clenched his fists.

What can we do?

Those beasts can't be contacted!

The sound transmission talismans are not answered at all.

Then we can't say that they were all harmed by Xu Fengqiu last night, right?

Impossible, there was no movement at all.

But, if we fight now, can he, a ninth-order Immortal Emperor, turn the tide?

The Xu family should not have a ninth-order Immortal Emperor.

But there is Xu Fengqiu!

Damn!

He is also very panicked, okay?

Otherwise, he wouldn't have run out with the Gu family last night.

What to do?

"Why don't we fight to the death! We must avenge the head of the family, and we must also protect the dignity and face of our Gu family." Gu Pingsheng said angrily with clenched fists.

"Cough cough, if you ask me, it's better to keep the green hills than worry about firewood. Knowing that we will die, there is no need to die for our ideals. If we die, wouldn't those cowards be very happy?"

"That makes sense, we really can't fight, once we fight, we will definitely die."

"Old Ancestor, we need you to preside over the overall situation."

"..."

The ninth-order Immortal Emperor gritted his teeth: "Pass down my order, gather the Gu family's resources as quickly as possible, and take those of the Gu family lineage away quickly. It's better to keep the green hills than worry about firewood. We will seek revenge from the Xu family in the future!"

Hearing this, some people breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Fortunately, this old ancestor is not a particularly stubborn person, otherwise they would all have to die.

They then rushed into the Gu family quickly.

Those strong people were all quite confused.

What's the situation?

Aren't you going to attack the Xu family?

Where are the people?

You gather and go attack the Xu family.

What are you dragging your feet for?

These people definitely don't know what the Gu family's current situation is like.

They still think that many other strong people from the Gu family are inside the Gu family.

"Someone's coming!"

Everyone's eyes turned to the horizon.

A great array of power was released.

A group of figures appeared outside the Gu family.

"Xu Fengqiu! The Xu family is here!"

Another great array lit up.

"The Shi family! It's the Shi family's strong people, they actually came too?"

"What? They're attacking the Gu family instead? Huh? Is that General Lin? Shouldn't he be related to the Gu family by marriage? Moreover, the Lin family and the Xu family don't have a good relationship, why are they united against a common enemy?"

"It's really strange!"

"..."

Lin Zhan stood there with his hands behind his back and shouted:

"Gu Changsheng of the Gu family, I am here to break off the engagement. Gu Changsheng is extremely hypocritical and sanctimonious. As the young master of the Gu family, he has a marriage contract, but he actually flirted with the Xu family's maidservant and made extremely vile remarks. You, Gu Changsheng, are not worthy of my Qingzhu!"

Everyone was shocked.

What?
