Chapter 72
The Great Perfection of the Ancient Sacred Body and its Essence Blood!
Lu Yuan's voice was calm and undisturbed.
Then.
He didn't give Liu Ruyan any more chance to speak, and simply waved his hand.
brush!
A dazzling sword light flashed.
Liu Ruyan's kowtowing motion suddenly froze, and then a beautifully made-up head rolled to the side, its eyes wide open, still filled with endless fear.
"Like smoke!"
Liu Chengfeng, standing to the side, let out a desperate roar.
"Why don't you go and keep her company?"
Lu Yuan's gaze shifted, and his sword flashed again.
puff!puff!puff!
There was no room for resistance.
Liu Chengfeng, Zhou Yi, and Chu Batian, these three powerful Golden Core clan leaders in Tianyuan City, along with all the clansmen they brought, fell instantly to the ground like grass under Lu Yuan's sword.
Blood stained the Gu family's hall, and a strong stench of blood filled the air.
This is the end.
The three high-ranking members of the three families who came to force him to resign were all wiped out.
Looking at the scene before me.
The Gu family members were so shocked that they were speechless.
They stared blankly at Lu Yuan, as if he were an invincible god.
Is this the patriarch of the Qingyun Sect?
This is the young lady's...husband?
too strong!
Too domineering!
Gu Qingxue stood beside Lu Yuan, looking at those who had once bullied the Gu family and humiliated her, now all of them turned into cold corpses.
She felt no fear, but rather an unprecedented sense of exhilaration and pride.
This is her husband.
A man who can disregard all rules and sweep away all enemies for her sake.
She turned around, walked up to Gu Changsheng who was already dumbfounded, and showed a gentle smile on her face.
"grandfather."
"This... is Lu Yuan, the patriarch of the Qingyun Sect."
She paused, two blushes rising to her cheeks, her voice soft yet firm: "He is also Qingxue's...husband."
"The Ancestor of the Qingyun Sect... my husband..."
Gu Changsheng muttered to himself, then suddenly realized what was happening and struggled to get up and bow.
"Gu Changsheng pays his respects to Ancestor Qingyun! Many thanks to Ancestor Qingyun for saving my Gu family from dire straits!"
Regardless of whether Lu Yuan was his grandson-in-law or not, the other party's status as a Nascent Soul cultivator was undeniable, and he had just saved the lives of his entire clan. Therefore, he had to perform this ritual.
however.
The moment he moved, he aggravated his internal injuries. Gu Changsheng's face turned pale, his breath instantly weakened, and he coughed violently, black blood spilling from the corner of his mouth again.
"Grandpa!" Gu Qingxue exclaimed in surprise.
"It's alright."
Lu Yuan stepped forward and placed his hand on Gu Changsheng's back.
"Blue Emperor Wood Emperor Kung Fu."
hum!
A rich blue light gathered in his palm.
The Three Transformations Wood Law operates, and endless vitality of Yi Wood, like sweet rain, continuously flows into Gu Changsheng's body.
Nourished by this immense vitality, the meridians in Gu Changsheng's body, which had been decaying and withered, rapidly regained their vitality, and his old, hidden injuries healed at a visible speed.
After a while.
Gu Changsheng's complexion changed from sallow to rosy, and his breathing gradually became steady, even stronger than before.
"This...this is..."
Gu Changsheng was so shocked by the surging vitality within his body that he was speechless.
This is simply a miracle!
"Qingxue," Lu Yuan said calmly, withdrawing his hand.
Gu Qingxue immediately understood, took out an exquisite jade bottle from her storage ring, and handed it over.
"Grandpa, this is a high-grade third-tier longevity pill."
"Although it is only effective for cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage, after taking it, one can ignore drug resistance and directly extend one's lifespan by 60 years."
"This is also a congratulatory gift that your husband has prepared for you."
"Extend your lifespan by sixty years?"
A collective gasp filled the hall.
The Gu family members looked at the jade bottle with fervent admiration and envy.
For a Golden Core cultivator whose lifespan is about to end, this is more precious than any magic treasure!
Gu Changsheng accepted the jade bottle with trembling hands, tears streaming down his face: "Thank you, Ancestor Qingyun, thank you... grandson-in-law!"
The title "grandson-in-law" brought a slight smile to Lu Yuan's face, but he did not refute it.
"Mr. Gu, you're too kind."
"Since we're family, let's not speak like that."
Lu Yuan waved his hand, then his gaze swept over the corpse on the ground, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
"Now that the top executives of these three companies have been eliminated, the rest are no longer a threat."
"Qingxue, take your men and wipe out the remaining members of these three families, and take over all their assets and resources as well."
"From now on, Tianyuan City will only need one Gu family member."
"Yes, my husband!"
Gu Qingxue's beautiful eyes lit up, and she immediately accepted the order.
She was never one to be soft-hearted, and since the other party had gone too far, it was only right to eliminate them completely.
……
After arranging things for Gu Jia.
Lu Yuan did not go with the others to ransack the house; Gu Qingxue was more than capable of handling such a small matter.
He left the Gu residence alone, his figure concealed in the void, and followed the coordinates provided by the system to the most prosperous area in the center of Tianyuan City.
Tian Shi Fang.
This is the largest gambling stone market in Tianyuan City, and also the most notorious den of iniquity on the entire border of the Great Yan Kingdom.
The workshop is filled with countless source stones transported from various mines. Some are priceless, and when cut open, they may contain ancient spiritual herbs, exotic metals, or even peerless cultivation techniques. Others are just worthless stones that are worthless once cut open.
Although it was not yet Shenshi (3-5 PM), the neighborhood was already bustling with people.
Lu Yuan did not linger in the front hall, but instead walked directly through the noisy crowd to an inconspicuous corner in the backyard.
Here are piles of abandoned stones, mostly rough-surfaced scraps devoid of any spiritual charm, priced extremely low, specifically designed to swindle freelance cultivators who want to find bargains but have no money.
Lu Yuan's gaze landed precisely on a gray-white stone that was about half a person's height and shaped like a heart.
The stone's surface was covered with cracks and even had some moss growing on it, making it look like an ordinary roadside rock.
"Is this the Origin Stone that sealed the essence and blood of the Great Perfection Ancient Sacred Body?"
A golden light flashed in Lu Yuan's eyes.
Open the Golden Eyes of Truth!
hum!
My gaze pierced through the layer of grayish-white stone skin.
Inside the stone, there was a hazy, chaotic mist. Even with the Golden Eyes of Truth, one could only vaguely see a dazzling golden light surging within it.
Faintly, one could hear a series of thunderous booms, the sound of blood and qi surging.
"There really is something there."
Lu Yuan was certain.
Even the Golden Eyes of Illusion could not see through it completely, which is enough to show that this drop of essence blood is extraordinary.
Lu Yuan casually beckoned to a waiter, pointed to the stone, and asked, "How many spirit stones does this stone cost?"
The waiter glanced at the piece of scrap rock, somewhat uninterested: "Sir, this is a stone from the scrap yard. It's ten low-grade spirit stones each, no bargaining."
"I bought it."
Lu Yuan tossed out ten spirit stones, then with a flick of his sleeve, he directly stored the source stone in his storage ring.
