Chapter 931: The Death of Gu Santong, the Empress Dowager Abducted

~8 min read 1,439 words

Inside the cell, Cheng Shifei realized he was about to become "incomplete," and he was as panicked as an ant on a hot pan.

However, the video's bullet comments section was incredibly "heartless."

"Hahahaha, the Eastern Depot needs talent like you!"

"Eunuch Cheng, that title sounds so~ badass!"

"I don't want to have feathers inserted, hahahaha, Cheng Shifei is such a goofball."

"A bit of trivia: in ancient times, after eunuchs were castrated, they relied on feathers to guide urination. The mortality rate for castration in that era was super high, and with poor medical conditions, whether one could survive was entirely up to luck. In the show, Eunuch Sun spending money to buy people to be castrated as eunuchs is logically sound!"

"The Gu King ladies know so much."

"This scene cracked me up!"

"I thought Haitang, Tianya, and Yidao were miserable enough, but I didn't expect Cheng Shifei to be even worse."

"Zhu Wushi: Is this the guy who's supposed to be my future Yellow-rank Number One Secret Agent?"

"..."

The bullet comments exploded across the screen.

Thousands of households across the Huaxia nation were filled with happy laughter.

Sure enough.

Human happiness is built upon the suffering of others.

Cheng Shifei's entrance brought joy to the audience.

In reality.

This character's impression in the show was mostly that of a comedic relief.

It's just that the core of comedy is often tragedy.

The audience and Cheng Shifei at this moment did not know that Cheng Shifei was about to meet his biological father—Gu Santong!

In the show.

Cheng Shifei comforted himself to stay calm, and while comforting himself... he fell asleep.

He really had a big heart.

Fortunately, heaven never blocks all paths; in his half-dreaming state, Cheng Shifei fell off the bed and accidentally broke through the stone wall beneath it. It turned out there was a hidden passage here, perhaps this was his great chance to escape.

Who knew that he hadn't crawled very far along the passage before he was sucked in by an extremely powerful force.

There, he saw a white-haired old man bound by iron chains, as well as the stone tablet standing directly in front of the old man with the four characters "Iron-Gall God Marquis" written on it.

Only then did Cheng Shifei realize in shock that the end of this passage was not freedom at all, but the ninth layer of the Imperial Prison, specifically used by the imperial court to imprison supreme experts.

And the old man in front of him was one of the experts defeated by the God Marquis.

The old man told Cheng Shifei that back then, the God Marquis risked internal injuries that would be incurable for life to battle his Vajra Indestructible Divine Art, but unfortunately, he lost by half a move. Because he kept his promise to accept the loss, he had been locked here by the God Marquis for a full twenty years.

Logically speaking, with his power alone, escaping from here would not be difficult, but he had a promise with the God Marquis:

To see the token is to see the person; as long as the four characters "Iron-Gall God Marquis" appeared, he could not advance even half a step anywhere, which is why he had been trapped until now.

For all these years, the God Marquis would send a Wu Lin expert in every two years to test if his martial arts had regressed. Over time, the internal energy and martial arts of experts from the Eight Great Sects had all been sucked dry by him.

Speaking of this, Cheng Shifei realized belatedly who the old man was.

The old man was none other than the Invincible Playful Boy Gu Santong, who had been defeated by the Iron-Gall God Marquis twenty years ago!

In this world, only he knew the Star-Sucking Great Method that could absorb others' internal energy, but Gu Santong did not know that the Iron-Gall God Marquis actually knew it too.

This was a skill Gu Santong obtained from the Strange Hero of Heaven Pool. Because the Iron-Gall God Marquis had taught Gu Santong the Shaolin Sect's Flicking Flower Finger, he felt this person was a good friend to associate with, so he deliberately passed this skill of the Strange Hero of Heaven Pool to him.

As for himself, because he looked down on taking shortcuts, he focused on the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art.

It's just that Gu Santong didn't expect this to lead to the tragedy of his life.

Back to the story.

Cheng Shifei had heard of Gu Santong's great name and looked at Gu Santong with a face full of shock.

Who knew that at this moment, Gu Santong would start channeling his energy without explanation, blowing off Cheng Shifei's clothes and using his powerful internal energy to suck him in.

Cheng Shifei was terrified: "Ah, sex maniac, help!"

But Gu Santong did not stop; instead, he pursed his lips as if he wanted to kiss.

This part of the plot was somewhat unsuitable for children, and the kids watching were completely confused.

The adults, however, understood in a second, and their gossiping hearts flared up.

Instantly, the bullet comments boiled over:

"Holy crap!"

"Gu Santong actually has this kind of sexual orientation?"

"Is it this yellow and violent?"

"Mommy, the taste is really heavy!"

"The picture is too beautiful to imagine!"

"So horny!"

"66666, what kind of god-tier brain hole does the screenwriter have!"

"Censors: You guys are really brave!"

"Damn it, why did I understand in a second? So shameful!"

"It's normal if you think about it, after all, Gu Santong has been locked up for twenty years!"

"I didn't expect you to be such an expert!"

0

"..."

But in the next five seconds, the audience realized they were the ones who were impure and thought crookedly. It turned out Gu Santong was not into men; rather, he knew he was about to die. Before dying, he passed his lifelong internal energy, the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art, and the martial arts he had learned from the experts of the Eight Great Sects to Cheng Shifei.

"Is this Star-Sucking Great Method really not the Wedding Dress Divine Art? It's too similar."

"It shouldn't be as powerful as the Wedding Dress Divine Art. Think about how powerful Jiang Yuyan was after obtaining the Flower-Grafting Technique? Yet Gu Santong, who mastered the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art and the Star-Sucking Great Method, was still not the Iron-Gall God Marquis's opponent!"

"A generation of supreme experts, only wanting to find a successor before dying, it's truly sigh-inducing."

"I feel like there should be a deep story between him and Zhu Wushi."

"Cheng Shifei hit the jackpot!"

"From now on, there's one more location for encounters—the Imperial Prison!"

After passing on the martial arts.

Before dying, Gu Santong wanted Cheng Shifei to call him Master. Cheng Shifei said, "You want me to call you that just because you say so? Do you think you're my dad?"

He didn't know that his words would become a prophecy.

Gu Santong really was his dad.

Gu Santong told Cheng Shifei that the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art could only be used five times in a lifetime. Every time it was used, a blood mark would appear on the palm. If used a sixth time, he would explode and die.

Furthermore, he told Cheng Shifei to defeat the Iron-Gall God Marquis, then find a woman named "Suxin" and tell her on his behalf, "I love her very much."

After saying this, the light in Gu Santong's eyes gradually dimmed. A generation of heroes in the Wu Lin had thus lost their breath.

Cheng Shifei felt quite emotional. Having grown up seeing the coldness of the world, this was the first time someone had been so good to him.

He kowtowed to Gu Santong three times and recognized him as his "godfather."

The following plot.

The audience once suspected that Cheng Shifei had received a script for a power fantasy.

After escaping the Imperial Prison, Cheng Shifei entered the palace and "hooked up" with the Emperor's own sister, Princess Yunluo.

Immediately after, he and Yunluo disguised themselves and left the palace, returning to the gambling house to vent the anger he had once suffered there.

At the same time, he also used Yunluo's identity to hand over Zhang Laosan, who had framed him and almost caused him to be castrated, to Eunuch Sun.

They didn't know that a world-shaking event had occurred in the palace!

The Empress Dowager was missing!
