Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

After a period of consoling by the one-eyed elder, Lin Bai, who had turned into a monstrous ghost, finally calmed down.@@novelbin@@

"Where is Gu Chen now?" Lin Bai's voice was chilling, and a pair of fierce eyes flickered with a red glow.

The one-eyed elder said, "Young master, as of now, Gu Chen is also in Youzhou. The guardian of Youzhou has died in battle, and he is currently acting in charge of overseeing Youzhou's affairs. He is in the state city."

"Go to the state city, kill him--I want to make Youzhou's rivers run red with blood!" At that moment, the crimson light in Lin Bai's eyes seemed to burn even brighter.

Hearing this, the one-eyed elder hesitated and said, "Shall we not wait for the Sixth Master and Seventh Master to come out of seclusion?"

This one-eyed elder was, in fact, one of the Eight Law Enforcement Masters of the Six Union God Sect, ranked last.

By then, he had come out of seclusion, successfully merged with a ghost of the netherworld, and made great strides in his strength. With only a bit more time to settle, he would be able to officially break through and become a top grandmaster of martial arts who had reached the divine realm.

As for the Sixth Master and Seventh Master he mentioned, they were currently in seclusion in Ling Yun Valley to successfully break through to the divine realm of martial arts, and the reason he had come out to this place was to protect Lin Bai.

"With the strength of just the few of us, can't we kill him?" When Gu Chen was mentioned, deep hatred surged in Lin Bai's heart.

The one-eyed elder said, "Young master, you may not know that in this period, Gu Chen's rate of improvement has been incredibly fast too. He even exchanged hands with Xiahou Yuan and slew two elders from the Vault of Sky Sword Sect of the six major holy lands. He is very strong."

The fact that Xiahou Yuan had been slain by Gu Chen was unknown to the one-eyed elder and they had deliberately concealed it to avoid alerting their enemy prematurely.

"It must be the supreme treasure in the spirit realm that's in Gu Chen's hands!" Lin Bai exclaimed fiercely.

By now, how could he not guess that Gu Chen had deceived everyone all along, himself included?

What he had obtained was not a supreme treasure at all, but merely an illusion. The true supreme treasure of the spirit realm must have ended up in Gu Chen's hands; otherwise, Gu Chen could not have possibly broken through to the innate realm so quickly, nor could he have gained such formidable strength in such a short time.

Hearing this, the one-eyed elder also nodded slightly, guessing as much regarding this matter.

"All of this should have been mine. I'm going to kill him and take back everything that belongs to me!" Lin Bai roared, his emotions once again becoming somewhat agitated.

At that moment, an idea struck the one-eyed elder, and he said, "Since the young master hates Gu Chen so much, wouldn't it be too easy on him if we just killed him outright?"

Lin Bai, gaunt in stature, with pale skin covered in black patterns, was momentarily taken aback upon hearing this.

A cold smile crept onto the one-eyed elder's face as he said, "Young master, you became like this because of Gu Chen. Simply killing him is too merciful. He should suffer the punishment he deserves before death. We can lure him out of the state city of Youzhou, then slaughter all the countless citizens of the city.

When Gu Chen returns and sees the city filled with corpses, what expression will he have then?"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing these words, Lin Bai also became somewhat excited. Yes, he too believed that merely killing Gu Chen outright was too kind. He wanted to repay Gu Chen a hundredfold, a thousandfold, for the torment he had endured.

"You're right. I want him to taste endless agony before he dies, not just physical torture, but mental as well. I want to slaughter the entire Youzhou in front of him, his family, and Da Xia—I want him to watch helplessly as he loses everything!"

At that moment, Lin Bai's face twisted ferociously, his pupils blood-red, his body exuding a black aura that made him indistinguishable from the malevolent spirits of hell.

The one-eyed elder sneered coldly too. The state city of Youzhou housed more than several hundred thousand citizens. Once the city was breached, so many lives would be at his and Lin Bai's mercy to consume, and both their cultivations would undoubtedly soar!

Inside the one pupil of the one-eyed elder, there were also flickering shades of red.

...

In the state city of Youzhou, within the Jing Tian Department.

It had been three days since Gu Chen had slain Xiahou Yuan. During that time, not a single piece of information had leaked out, and no one knew that Xiahou Yuan was dead.

The Xiahou family, after being informed by the Jing Tian Department, told Gu Chen that all was normal; they still thought Xiahou Yuan was lingering in Ling Yun Valley, not noticing anything amiss.

In the meantime, after gathering intelligence during this period, the Governor of Youzhou, Liang Zhao, informed Gu Chen that, apart from the Xiahou family and Ling Yun Valley, no other forces had allied with the Six Union God Sect yet and that the demonic sect had not made contact with any other powers.

And these two, could be considered the strongest powers in Youzhou's martial arts world. Ling Yun Valley could even be said to be the number one force in the martial world of Youzhou.

Clearly, the Six Union God Sect was not very interested in the other powers on Youzhou's martial arts scene.

At this moment, Gu Chen turned to the governor, Master Liang, and said, "Master Liang, I wonder if during this period, any suspicious individuals have appeared in Youzhou?"

"Suspicious individuals?" Liang Zhao was slightly startled before replying, "I can have my subordinates pay attention to this. Does Lord Gu have any discoveries?"

"If there is any suspicious person, they must inform me at once."

Gu Chen did not reveal the reason to Master Liang. Still somewhat concerned about the mysterious woman he had encountered that day, he wanted to clear up her background.
