Chapter 228: and ===GLOSSARY===

~7 min read 1,360 words

After Old Ancestor Yunshan finished speaking, he secretly observed the reactions of the Gu family members. This was beyond his expectation.

Upon hearing of the existence of the Immortal Realm and numerous Immortal Kings, this group not only showed no panic, but instead wore expressions of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.

Gu Lin Tian looked at Gu Cangsheng.

"Father, it seems Li Hentian is badly wounded; in a short time he will be unable to interfere in the affairs of the lower realm," Gu Lin Tian analyzed.

Gu Cangsheng stroked his chin, lost in thought.

"His main body took a blow from Chixiao head-on, his clone was slain by me, and without hundreds of thousands of years he cannot hope to recover his vitality; as for the other Immortal Kings, each has his own schemes."

Gu Cangsheng hammered out a decision.

"Since the Thus line Sanqian Zhou is now ownerless, we won't stand on ceremony—Xuan Ce, follow Plan No. 8 and get ready to act."

These days, the Gu family, aside from raising troops, had naturally also formulated plans.

First, we must consider: if the plan for Thus line Sanqian Zhou is restarted, what if, upon entering, an Immortal King opposite swings a sword and cuts us down?

Fortunately, such a thing did not happen.

Given that.

Naturally, we can carry out the plan: "How to empty Thus line Sanqian Zhou if there are no Immortal Kings."

However, behind Thus line Sanqian Zhou lies the matter of the Immortal Realm.

This both shocked the Gu family and was within reason.

How could a mere Li Hentian possibly withstand a place as vast as Thus line Sanqian Zhou?

At this moment, Gu Xuan Ce walked forward from behind, holding a stack of array diagrams in his hands, his eyes shining.

Last time, the relocation was halted halfway; later, the plan to refine the Twilight Divine Realm was stopped midway and he was called back—doing things halfway made him feel awful all over!

This time we must surely accomplish the plan to relocate the great province in one fell swoop!

At the very least… we must move ten provinces!

Gu Yuan turned his head to look at Old Ancestor Yunshan.

"Yunshan, you are a smart person," Gu Yuan said in a calm tone.

"Our Gu family needs to undertake some matters in Thus line Sanqian Zhou; we need a place to settle."

"I think your Yun family is quite suitable."

"I'll give you two options."

"First, the Yun family will merge into my Gu family, becoming a vassal of our Gu family in Thus line Sanqian Zhou. From now on, Yun Prefecture will be the largest prefecture in Thus line Sanqian Zhou, and your Yun family will be the foremost power in Thus line Sanqian Zhou."

"Second, I will replace you with an obedient family."

The conditions Gu Yuan offered were very generous; as for the other side not agreeing…

If they don't agree, then they don't agree.

The Gu family is not some murderous clan.

The premise is… that the other side does not leak information.

Old Ancestor Yunshan didn't even think, and without hesitation he knocked his head heavily to the ground.

"The entire Yun family is willing to serve the young master with the devotion of dogs and horses! To go through fire and water, to die ten thousand times without regret!"

He naturally knew that if he refused, the Yun family would have no reason to exist.

Only a fool would refuse to cling to such a thick thigh.

Even crippled immortals could be pinched to death like ants, and Immortal Kings are not taken seriously.

The Yun family is about to soar to great heights.

"Very well. Rise." Gu Yuan waved his hand.

"Go make arrangements, clear out space; the Gu family's great army will be stationed here."

Old Ancestor Yunshan repeatedly agreed, climbed to his feet, and directed the Yun clansmen to begin cleaning the clan grounds.

The Gu family's mighty army marched mightily into the Yun family's domain.

……

……

Yun Prefecture, the ancestral land of the Yun family.

Gu Xuan Ce held a Compass, his steps measuring the earth's veins.

One hundred thousand Gu family elites, dissolved into scattered units, silently took control of all key routes in Yun Prefecture.

Old Ancestor Yunshan followed behind Gu Xuan Ce, attending to his every need—serving tea and water—his demeanor humble to the extreme.

"The direction of Yun Prefecture's earth veins is quite interesting: the southeast is missing a corner, the northwest is raised—perfect for serving as a Sub-array Eye of the drawing Great Array."

Gu Xuan Ce sketched a few strokes on the array diagram, then turned his head to look at Old Ancestor Yunshan,

"Where is the Yun family's treasure vault? The array base needs a vast amount of divine source to fill the gaps; relying solely on what we brought would consume too much."

Old Ancestor Yunshan hesitated not, presenting with both hands a storage jade talisman: "Senior, the Yun family's accumulations over a million years are all inside; please take as you wish. As long as we can serve the Gu family, the Yun family will spare no expense, even if it means losing everything."

Gu Xuan Ce took the jade talisman, swept it with his divine sense, and frowned: "Just this bit of junk? Not even enough to stuff between the teeth. Battle Uncle!"

Gu Zhan walked over carrying a broken axe, yawning: "What's up? Want to fight?"

"Go collect some construction fees from those people in the Primeval Immortal Realm. Tell the Dragon Emperor and the Yuanchu Divine Lord that if they want a share of immortal substances, they must first pay to pave the way. Our Gu family eats meat; they want to drink soup, so they'll have to buy a bowl." Gu Xuan Ce continued to deduce the array without lifting his head.

Gu Zhan grinned, revealing his stark white teeth: "All right! I love doing this kind of work; I'll make sure to squeeze them dry."

Inside the main hall of the Yun family.

Gu Yuan sat in the Grand Tutor's chair that originally belonged to Old Ancestor Yunshan, holding a cup of freshly brewed immortal tea.

The Azure Luan stood at his side, fanning him.

Gu Lin Tian and Gu Cangsheng gathered around a huge map of Thus line Sanqian Zhou, studying it.

"The territory of Thus line Sanqian Zhou is vast; if we want to relocate it entirely, relying on Yun Prefecture alone as a fulcrum is not enough." Gu Lin Tian pointed at several red circles on the map, "Lei Prefecture and Huo Prefecture have been lost; the remaining Jian Prefecture, Long Prefecture, and Hai Prefecture have the deepest foundations. We must also set down array eyes in these three prefectures to stabilize the balance of the realm‑drawing."

Gu Cangsheng cracked melon seeds, spitting out the shells: "Just hit them straight on. Whoever dares not to submit, I'll slap them dead with one palm. What a big deal."

"Dad, we're here to move house, not to destroy the world. If we ruin the earth veins, this Sanqian Zhou will become a wasteland; moving back to grow potatoes? We still need to work out a strategy." Gu Lin Tian said helplessly.

Sanqian Zhou is too big.

Even if the old ancestor has already reached the Jue Dian Immortal King, it's impossible to completely move everything out in one go!

Moreover, doing that would take too long and cause too much commotion.

Their current advantage is that, unlike the Giant Hand Immortal King back then, they won't be blocked.

But they can erupt from within Sanqian Zhou.

So…

This is the only chance!

At least it's also before the Gu Family gives birth to more Immortal King Realm powerhouses.

The last chance to move Sanqian Zhou back to the Primeval Immortal Realm!

So we must be swift, precise, and ruthless.

When the Immortal King returns directly, seize quickly, flee quickly, capture quickly!

"Yuan'er, what do you think?" Gu Cangsheng turned his head to look at Gu Yuan, throwing the question to his grandson.
