Chapter 848

Brother, I'll take you to get revenge!

Yang Ling'er's body began to tremble, and her jade hand clenched tightly.

Revenge!

Bingquan Lao Zu furrowed his brows slightly, looking at Lu Xuan, "Azure Sword Sect?"

Lu Xuan nodded.

Bingquan Lao Zu's face showed a hint of a mocking smile, "The Azure Sword Sect, from top to bottom, is basically a bunch of idiots, especially the sect leader—Yang Xuan was a great contributor to the Azure Sword Sect's rise, yet he treats Yang Xuan and Yang Ling'er like this."

After Yang Ling'er began cultivating at the Frost Flower Ancient Gate, he also went to learn a bit about the grudges between Yang Xuan and the Azure Sword Sect.

He laughed.

What kind of pig‑brained idiot is that woman Huajieyu, actually capable of doing something like this?

If Yang Xuan were a disciple of their Frost Flower Ancient Gate, he'd be laughing even in his dreams.

However, he also learned some other secrets.

Gu Clan!

If Huajieyu were just a big‑breasted brainless woman, but Chu Youwei is not to be underestimated.

Although the Chu clan has been exterminated, Chu Youwei's body flows with the bloodline power of the Gu Clan!

The Gu Clan is not a race of this realm; they come from the upper realm!

Thinking of this, Bingquan Lao Zu's eyes grew deep as he looked at Lu Xuan and said, "Daoist Lu Xuan, this time we go to the Desolate Ancient Flame Realm to avenge the Azure Sword Sect—anyone from the Azure Sword Star Sea can be killed, except for one person."

Oh?

Lu Xuan furrowed his brows slightly.

Bingquan Lao Zu flicked his sleeve, and Chu Youwei's illusory apparition appeared before everyone.

She wore a long dress, her hair flowing, her features delicate, but many strange points of light drifted over her body—not the aura of humanity.

Yang Xuan's eyes turned scarlet; upon seeing Chu Youwei, he recalled all the wicked deeds she had done to his sister over ten thousand years!

Chu Youwei must die!

Bingquan Lao Zu said, "Chu Youwei is not that simple; her body contains the Gu Clan's bloodline. The Gu Clan has always been mysterious and low‑key; even powers as strong as the Strange Realm and the Sword Qi Great Wall would rather not clash with them."

Back then, the extermination of the Chu clan was shrouded in mystery; I once secretly investigated, but an invisible pressure blocked my probing of the past's secrets. However, one thing can be confirmed: the Chu clan's extermination seems to have been a sacrificial ritual to awaken Chu Youwei's Gu Clan bloodline.

When I investigated Chu Youwei, I felt as if an invisible force was secretly observing me. I also made a special trip to the Azure Sword Star Sea, and I must say, Daoist Lu Xuan's mastery of formations is profoundly heaven‑defying.

Lu Xuan replied lightly, "You've gone to the trouble."

I never expected Bingquan Lao Zu to have actually made a special trip to the Azure Sword Star Sea to investigate.

Bingquan Lao Zu smiled.

You should know that since our last clash, plus Yang Ling'er being in their Frost Flower Ancient Gate, he has firmly taken Lu Xuan's side.

Lu Xuan's cultivation is heaven‑defying, he is completely inscrutable, and behind him stand numerous top‑level sword cultivators of the Sword Qi Great Wall!

In the final battle, the Human Race Alliance and the Strange Realm will erupt into a terrifying war; our Frost Flower Ancient Gate can only cling to Lu Xuan's thigh, perhaps gaining a slim chance of survival.

Therefore, he is very concerned about Yang Ling'er's matter.

Bingquan Lao Zu continued, "Daoist Lu Xuan, I suspect that although the Gu Clan has not appeared, they have been secretly watching the Azure Sword Star Sea."

And the reason the Gu Clan has not shown itself now is likely because Chu Youwei has not encountered any mishap. If Chu Youwei faces a deadly situation, the Gu Clan will surely descend.

I have checked the historical records of the myriad heavens' seas; the Gu Clan has indeed rarely acted, but each time they do, they can almost overwhelm an entire great domain, which is utterly terrifying.

I suggest we not kill Chu Youwei for now.

Lu Xuan gave a light smile, patted Bingquan Lao Zu's shoulder, and said, "No problem. It's just the Gu Clan."

If the Gu Clan is so powerful, why would they hide like rats in dark corners?

Even if the Gu Clan were even stronger, now, by borrowing the power of the World Tree, I can still obliterate them!

Moreover, he is curious about what the Gu Clan's ultimate goal actually is.

Last time he had already witnessed the Seven‑Reincarnation Karma Gu; just how powerful are the higher‑grade Gu creatures?

At this moment.

Yang Xuan looked at Lu Xuan, "Master, then…"

Lu Xuan wore an expression of easy calm, "No problem. It's merely the Gu Clan's bloodline—kill it if you want. Go to the Azure Sword Sect and do what you wish."

Yang Xuan nodded, "All right, Master."

Seeing this, Bingquan Lao Zu ceased his persuasion, but the worry on his face deepened as he said, "Daoist Lu Xuan, the World Tree is now unsettled; even sound transmissions say that pure Dao power may appear—I don't know if this is true or not."

Lu Xuan nodded, "These words are not false. The upper realm and this realm are both fruits borne by the World Tree; only because the upper realm occupies heavenly timing, earthly advantage, and human harmony can it suppress this realm. But now the World Tree's rules have become somewhat disordered, allowing the lower realm to flow upward and seize the source of the upper realm's Dao power."

Bingquan Lao Zu gave a bitter laugh, "This is indeed a great opportunity. But I fear that even if such a heaven‑defying chance appears, it is not something we Sovereign Realm cultivators can obtain."

Lu Xuan gave a light smile, "You guessed right. The upper realm's rules and Dao completely dominate this realm. Even if a drop of pure Dao power appears, it is not something beings like you can occupy."

Bingquan Lao Zu: '……'

Lu Xuan said, "But this matter is ultimately a good thing."

Bingquan Lao Zu fell into thought.

Not long after.

With a thought from Lu Xuan, a mysterious power enveloped Yang Xuan, Yang Ling'er, Huajieyu, and the others; their bodies instantly vanished from the spot.

The destination: the Desolate Ancient Flame Realm, the Azure Sword Sect.

Watching the direction in which Lu Xuan disappeared, Bingquan Lao Zu shook his head slightly, "Daoist Lu Xuan, such heaven‑defying existences almost seem to appear out of nowhere. Now the myriad heavens' star field are in turmoil; even as strong as our Frost Flower Ancient Gate we are like duckweed. This realm hides far too many secrets."

……

Meanwhile.

The place where the Gu Clan resides.

The mysterious Dao power transformed into countless threads, constantly flowing; in this heaven and earth, an obscure aura continually brews, completely different from the Dao aura of the myriad heavens' star field.

More than ten elders gathered together; not far from them stood the huge statue of Gu Yue Laozi.

Suddenly, the leading gray-robed elder's hand seal shifted, a towering killing intent rose on his body, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked toward the other elders.

"Not good! Chu Youwei faces a life-and-death killing calamity!"

"Killing calamity!"

Everyone looked toward the leading Cloud Cliff Elder and said, "Cloud Cliff Elder, who dares to act against Chu Youwei?"

The Cloud Cliff Elder said, "It's Lu Xuan and his disciples!"

Several minor elders said, "Back then Lu Xuan sealed the entire Azure Sword Star Sea with the Heaven-Reaching Array Pattern; now he finally intends to act?"

Unless absolutely necessary, they really do not want to act against Lu Xuan.

After all, Lu Xuan is not just a single person!

He is currently in the limelight, and behind him is the Sword Qi Great Wall!

Simply because, their mission has already been completed; now, following Gu Yue Laozi's order, they are lying low.

But if Lu Xuan intends to kill Chu Youwei, they will not agree!

We must act!

"Boom boom boom!"

Terrifying killing intent appeared on everyone's bodies.

"If Lu Xuan and his disciples dare to move against Chu Youwei, he must die!"
