Chapter 294: Uninvited Guest?
Gold Tiger Splits Gallbladder Spear!
Ten Thousand Ren Pierces Void Sword!
These are all low-grade heavenly-tier spiritual artifacts from the imperial treasury!
Plus, each person has a full set of top-grade earth-tier spiritual artifacts.
All the court officials present were shocked.
Such generous rewards show that the Emperor's regard for these two Gu Family brothers has reached the utmost!
And on this court, including Zhang Jiannan, no one yet knows that the five Martial Sovereigns, Li Kaishan among them, met their end in Han Shan Cheng!
If they knew, Gu Chen now could single-handedly fight a Martial Sovereign.
Who knows what they would think.
……
Han Shan Cheng.
At this moment, the Gu Family is extraordinarily lively!
Since the Five Great Families helped the Gu Family slay the five Martial Sovereigns, including Li Kaishan.
The Five Great Families have all boarded the Gu Family's great ship!
Even the Six Great Families of Han Shan Cheng can barely be considered people on the same boat.
After the Five Great Families' people informed each family's head of the grim state of Jiang Tianyi and the others.
The five Martial Sovereigns were even more astonished.
They previously only thought the Gu Family brothers had extraordinary talent, and their future achievements would surely surpass theirs.
Being on good terms with the Gu Family was merely out of necessity.
But they never expected that Gu Han now possesses strength almost overwhelming them!
This made them even more determined to firmly bind themselves to the Gu Family!
Thus, the Five Great Families each sent their middle generation, bringing the younger generation to the Gu Family to propose marriage!
Not only are the young masters of the Five Great Families proposing to the Gu Family's daughters.
Even the young women of the Five Great Families are eager to marry into the Gu Family!
The Gu Family manor can truly be said to have its threshold broken through!
Marriages between aristocratic families mostly still follow the notion that a married daughter is like spilled water.
Although ties with the natal family are not severed, ultimately they are not as close as the husband's family.
But the natal family can also provide support!
The Gu Family now exists as a presence faintly towering above the Five Great Families.
With the Gu Family's backing, Gu women who marry into the Five Great Families can naturally enjoy blessings.
They also want to marry into the Gu Family, thereafter their status will surpass that of their own families!
Facing the Five Great Families' almost transactional marriage practices, Gu Han does not know whether it is acceptable.
But he also knows that this is merely an extremely common practice among great clans.
Besides having one wife and one concubine, these great clans taking several concubines is nobody's business.
Thus, the objects of a formal marriage must be those who place great importance on status.
However, the Gu Family does not force its descendants to marry.
If they happen to get along well with someone from another family, that is naturally a good thing.
But if they don't see eye to eye, the Gu Family now has the confidence to be selective.
This is the change brought by strength!
Among them, the Five Great Families have not even considered proposing to Gu Pan.
After all, in this world, refining copper is not an illegal act.
At fourteen, she has barely reached the age of marriage.
Moreover, many people are willing to become a live-in son-in-law!
But all those who came to the door were driven away mercilessly by Little Wolf guarding the entrance.
Even some who wanted the elders to protect them and forcibly bypass Little Wolf.
All were chased by Little Wolf running all over the courtyard!
Now, Little Wolf's cultivation level alone has reached five stars!
That is to say, just its cultivation level equals that of a human Martial Sect.
But Little Wolf is also an existence that has undergone several accumulations of the ten realms.
Not to mention a Martial Sect, even a Martial Sovereign facing it, if acting rashly, would have to leave with several wounds!
After those people hit a wall with Gu Han, they could only turn to propose to others.
The Six Great Families held wedding banquet after banquet, giving the entire populace of Han Shan Cheng many holidays and distributing many cultivation resources!
The Six Great Families already possess many spirit veins, so the amount of resources distributed to the populace, although many.
But when spread among the Six Great Families, it is not an extraordinarily large number.
The purpose of the Five Great Families is to let everyone in Han Shan Cheng witness.
They and the Gu Family are as close as wearing the same pants!
Spending that little resource is an extremely profitable deal!
Thus, these wedding feasts are not only those of the Six Great Families, but also the wedding feast of the entire Han Shan Cheng!
But on the fifth day of the wedding feast, a fleet of flying ships came speeding from the horizon.
Liao Lun is currently attending the banquet as a honored guest at the Gu Family's residence.
Seeing the sword-shaped flying vessels, Liao Lun couldn't help but furrow his brows.
"People from Heavy Sword Peak have appeared here; they probably come with ill intent!"
The Five Great Family Heads also had their bodies instantly tense and their faces turned grim.
Although they had already been mentally prepared when they acted against Li Kaishan.
But when Heavy Sword Peak actually came to their door, they were still trembling with fear.
Even counting the two Gu Family Brothers, Han Shan Cheng has at most ten Martial Venerables.
Among them, the Five Great Family Heads each possess Martial Venerable combat power.
City Lord Liao Lun, along with his two subordinate generals, also have Martial Venerable strength.
Ten Martial Venerables appear to be extremely formidable combat power.
But compared to Heavy Sword Peak, the top power of Jiannan Prefecture, they are still far inferior.
Especially the Lord of Heavy Sword Peak, who is one of the few Martial King experts in the entire Jiannan Prefecture.
If the Lord of Heavy Sword Peak personally takes action.
Perhaps they wouldn't dare use a killing move against Liao Lun, but they would certainly show no mercy to those five.
The Five Great Family Heads immediately began to feel anxious.
The City Lord had already reported the matter of the Gu Family Brothers to the Imperial Court long ago.
Why has the Imperial Court not sent anyone yet?
If the Imperial Court shows sufficient regard for the Gu Family Brothers.
Even if you gave Heavy Sword Peak a hundred courages, they still wouldn't dare cause trouble for Han Shan Cheng.
"Gu Han, should we temporarily evacuate the gathered civilians?"
Now, in Han Shan Cheng's Gu Family, Gu Han is absolutely the backbone.
Therefore, Gu Ren came at First Moment to ask Gu Han's opinion.
If Gu Han is confident he can resist Heavy Sword Peak, then there's no need to evacuate the civilians.
But if he lacks confidence, not only must the civilians be evacuated, but the Gu Family must also prepare to organize personnel withdrawal.
The Five Great Family Heads beside them realized they had already boarded the Gu Family's big ship.
Upon hearing Gu Ren's inquiry, the Five Family Heads all turned to look at Gu Han.
If the Gu Family cannot resist Heavy Sword Peak, then even they will be doomed.
"No need, let's first see what these people intend to do."
Gu Han's gaze fell upon the hovering flying vessel in the sky, and he calmly said.
If before, he currently still lacks the ability to defeat a Martial King, then he indeed needs to temporarily avoid the spotlight.
But with Kun around, let alone a Martial King, even if a Martial Emperor came, they'd just be delivering vegetables!
Seeing Gu Han so confident, Gu Ren's heart, which had been lifted, also slightly settled back down.
The Five Family Heads also let their hearts settle.
The tornado that the Gu Family previously displayed, resembling a storm sweeping heaven and earth, they have not forgotten.
If it's truly the commotion caused by Gu Han.
Who knows, it might actually be able to withstand a Martial King!
