#850 - Chapter 850: Harming Others Will End Up Harming Yourself

In the center of the Gu Clan's underground palace, a red-haired, alluring woman paced back and forth, revealing half of her pale arm, from which a small black worm occasionally crawled out.

This person was none other than Hong Xiang, the leader of the Gu Clan and the 1001st successor.

By her time, the glory of the Gu Clan from tens of thousands of years ago was gone, and the inherited Gu techniques were fragmented, with their strength greatly diminished.

The reason they were targeted by the otherworld was precisely because of her ambition, using a major Gu technique to make her lead the Gu Clan to cause trouble in the cultivation world.

"Could it be that the Gu Clan is going to be destroyed in my hands?"

"No, the Gu Clan has only been passed down for a thousand years; it must continue to be glorious. Where are those troublesome ghosts from the cultivation world?"

After muttering to herself for a while, she roared, "Haven't the people from the cultivation world been killed yet?"

A follower rushed over from afar to report, "Reporting to the leader, the three people from the cultivation world are using a barrier to block the Gu people. We can't kill them right now."

"Bastard, waste!" Hong Xiang cursed.

"All the Gu people have been sent out, and you still can't kill them. At most, you have seven days, or you will all die!"

Hong Xiang hysterically roared on the platform, and the people below were so frightened that they prostrated themselves on the ground, trembling.

"Leader, too many clansmen have died for the Gu people experiments. I'm afraid our forces are not sufficient now."

A general wearing armor mustered his courage and said weakly.

Suddenly, Hong Xiang's face turned dark, and a fierce glint flashed in her eyes. The next second, a small black worm flew out of her sleeve and went straight into the gap in the armor.

"Ah ~" A scream was heard, and the general suddenly fell to the ground in pain, scratching his body frantically.

In a short while, his hands were already bloody, his bones were broken, and he kept wailing, "It hurts, it hurts, leader, spare my life."

The others looked at each other, not daring to speak, while the person on the platform remained unmoved.

After a few breaths, the wailing gradually weakened, and a corpse was quickly added to the ground.

Hong Xiang snorted coldly, her eyes filled with murderous intent, "Hmph, dare to shrink back, and this is the end!"

After speaking, she waved her hand, signaling everyone to follow her, and then swaggered over the corpse on the ground, heading towards Lin Yaoyao and the others.

The entire Gu Clan was already living in dire straits. There were originally more than a dozen tribes, but after various natural and man-made disasters in the middle, not many people survived.

In addition, for her own selfish desires, she made a deal with the otherworld, using the clansmen to refine Gu, and the number of people in the clan decreased rapidly, with constant complaints.

However, these things could not affect Hong Xiang's insistence on going her own way. On the road to courting death, she had gone further and further.

Hong Xiang manipulated the Gu people to retreat to the side while ordering the experts in the clan to break the barrier.

"Oh, so you are the leader of the Gu Clan?" Lin Yaoyao said contemptuously across the barrier.

As the barrier fluctuated like the surface of a lake, the runes on the barrier rippled, distorting Hong Xiang's face on the opposite side beyond recognition.

"Hmph, you lackeys of the cultivation world, don't be too proud too early. If you have the ability, come out," Hong Xiang roared angrily.

Lin Yaoyao smiled slightly, "Why don't you come over? We just want to outlast you!"

Hong Xiang was so angry that she stretched out her hand, and dozens of small black worms instantly flew out of her sleeves, trying to penetrate the barrier wall.

Seeing this, Lin Yaoyao mobilized the spiritual power in her body and strengthened the barrier again.

Seeing that the black Gu worms could not penetrate the barrier, Hong Xiang seemed to be about to lose her mind. She took out a spiritual sword and chopped at the barrier, until she was exhausted.

"This person is probably a lunatic," Ye Wuxin said disdainfully.

"What? What did you say? Who do you think you are, daring to offend me!"

… …

Six days passed like this, and two-thirds of the Gu people had died, and the remaining one-third could only live for one more day.

Lin Yaoyao and the other two sat bored on the ground, lying down, standing up, and squatting down.

"It's really boring. I still miss the days on Xiaoyao Peak, and I also want Master to make delicious food," Mu Qianqian sighed softly.

"What? You still want to eat?" Hong Xiang on the opposite side was obviously in a crazy state, her hair disheveled, her clothes torn by herself, and several bloodstains on her face.

At the end, the old man probably felt that the extreme method of refining Gu was too cruel, and he couldn't help but cry.

"Go to hell! You old waste," The red-clothed woman with disheveled hair was obviously out of her mind. Taking this opportunity, Lin Yaoyao quickly tried to persuade them to surrender.

"It's really not worth it for the Gu Clan. Such a leader is not worthy. Why are you still so loyal?"

"Your ancestors tens of thousands of years ago were a loyal arm of the cultivation world. I didn't expect their descendants to have fallen to the point of fratricide!"

On the other side of the barrier, the air seemed to freeze for a moment. They looked at me, and I looked at you, without saying a word.

Suddenly, a short saber flashed through the air and went straight into Hong Xiang's back.

Before she could react, the old man beside her mobilized the spiritual power in his palm and slapped Hong Xiang on the back.

"Hmph, you harm the clansmen and are not worthy to be the leader. Today, I will eliminate the harm for the clan!"

After speaking, he slapped her several times in a row until the old man was out of breath and could not exert any strength.

The other guards, who had long been dissatisfied with her, did not forget to add a knife.

"Hahaha," Hong Xiang's mouth was bleeding, and she staggered and stared at these clansmen who had been obedient to her, like a madman, using her last spiritual power to shoot out the Gu worms in her sleeves one by one.

In an instant, more than a dozen guards fell to the ground, wailing in pain, and died before they could flap their hands and feet a few times.

However, more Gu Clan people came over to add knives. Extreme fear and extreme hatred made their bodies tremble.

In a short while, Hong Xiang had been chopped into a sieve, and a large pool of red blood flowed from under her.

"It's really too cheap for this female demon!"

"Unfortunately, the home is gone."

… …

The people below were on the ground, their faces ashen. The few remaining clansmen, although rejoicing that they had survived, felt that there was no hope of living in the face of the destroyed homeland.

Lin Yaoyao removed the formation, "As long as you surrender, the cultivation world will not kill you!"

After Hong Xiang died, the Gu worms and Gu people raised by her no longer existed.

Lin Yaoyao went up and kicked her, and spat, "Harming others ultimately harms oneself!"

Suddenly, she felt as if the bottom of her foot was slightly scratched, and it quickly returned to normal, so she didn't care.

Next, the three searched the Gu Clan and found no hidden people from the otherworld.
