Supreme Sword Sovereign

If it were an ordinary day,

With Gu Han's Spiritual Sense, he would have detected the approaching figures much earlier.

But at this moment, he was in the midst of breaking through to a new realm, his mind taut with concentration, naturally dulling his perception.

"Young Master!"

Ah-Sha's expression tightened.

"They..."

"It's him!"

Hearing that all-too-familiar voice, a surge of hatred welled up in Gu Han's heart!

"Gu Cheng!"

Under the intertwining hatred,

The scene of being framed that day once again flashed through his mind!

That day, he was ambushed and fell unconscious. When he awoke, he found a frenzied Gu Tian charging at him, a sword piercing through his chest!

His own sword!

At that moment,

Just as he was about to approach Gu Tian,

He was struck on the shoulder by a palm from the severely wounded and delirious Gu Tian.

When he regained consciousness again, aside from the blood-stained sword on the ground, there was no trace of Gu Tian. Inside his clothes, a Golden Seal had appeared, and Gu Tian's warning not to rashly comprehend the seal still echoed in his ears.

Following that,

He was promptly charged with patricide by Gu Zhang and the others who arrived.

His cultivation level was stripped away!

Expelled from the Gu family!

He was well aware that from beginning to end, the instigators behind this were Gu Zhang and his group. With his cultivation level at that time, facing several Meridian Unblocking Realm experts, he had no chance to resist.

"Foster father!"

Thinking of Gu Tian's treatment of him over the past seventeen years, his eyes instantly turned blood red with rage!

The murderer...

Right before his eyes!

"Young Master..."

Even Ah-Sha felt that Gu Han was somewhat frightening at this moment.

"Ah-Sha!"

Gu Han turned around, struggling to maintain the last shred of rationality in his heart.

"Don't go out, wait for me to return!"

"Young Master."

Ah-Sha felt like crying.

"You... you better not die..."

"The ones who will die are them!"

Gu Han slowly stood up, gently touching a Storage Bag at his waist.

Inside...

Lay the Fire Cloud Spear!

Boom!

Under the surge of emotions, his Spiritual Power roared like a tidal wave, breaking through the last barrier and propelling him into the seventh layer of Meridian Opening!

The same realm he was in before his powers were stripped!

"Those who harmed you..."

The sword energy on the blade was condensed to the extreme, ready to burst forth!

"I will make them pay the price!"

As his words fell,

He left behind a blurry afterimage as his figure suddenly charged out!

...

In the distance,

Gu Cheng, leading five men, approached with confidence.

"Don't forget!"

Among the scattered cultivators,

A young man seemed uneasy, looking towards Gu Cheng.

"After killing him, the Yuan Crystals and Spiritual Instrument you promised!"

Before,

He hadn't thought about earning those two thousand Yuan Crystals, but Gu Han's achievements were too dazzling. He doubted he could win for sure, and he didn't want to share the bounty with others. After much consideration, he chose not to act.

Not just him,

The other two had the same thoughts.

However,

This time Gu Cheng offered five thousand Yuan Crystals, plus a high-grade Spiritual Instrument. Even if they shared, it was still a considerable fortune, tempting them beyond resistance.

And among the six,

He and Gu Zhang were at the fourth layer of Meridian Unblocking Realm, while the other four were at the third layer.

This power,

Unless they sought death by venturing deeper,

Would be invincible within this region!

"Rest assured!"

Gu Cheng sneered.

"In Sky Martial City, my Gu family's reputation is second to none! Kill him, and the Yuan Crystals and Spiritual Instrument are yours! Likewise, you must give it your all..."

Before he could finish his last word,

A roar like that of a wild beast suddenly erupted!

"Gu Cheng!"

Before the voice faded,

A chilling sword energy was already mere meters away from him!

So fast!

His pupils shrank, a faint red glow instantly lit up on his body, and he narrowly dodged the sword energy!

Bang! Bang!

Behind him,

Several ancient trees were struck by the sword energy and collapsed with a thunderous crash!

"Gu Han!"

Gu Cheng's face turned unsightly.

Strong!

Too strong!

At this moment, Gu Han was like a reborn warrior, much stronger than before his powers were stripped. If it weren't for the great distance between them when Gu Han struck, even with his fourth-layer Meridian Unblocking Realm cultivation, he would have had no chance of evading that sword energy!

To the side,

The three scattered cultivators also broke out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, they had been cautious enough not to act earlier. Facing that inexplicable sword energy alone... would have been more likely to bring misfortune than luck!

"Gu Cheng!"

Gu Han ignored the others, his sword pointing directly at Gu Cheng.

"Today, you will pay with your life for my foster father!"

"Pay with my life?"

The young man was taken aback, looking at Gu Cheng.

"Didn't you say this kid committed patricide? Why is he demanding your life instead?"

"It's none of your business!"

Gu Zhang's face turned cold.

"If you still want the Yuan Crystals, stop prying into these matters!"

The young man immediately shut up.

Compared to the Yuan Crystals, the truth of the matter was utterly unimportant.

"Little bastard!"

Gu Cheng stared coldly at Gu Han.

"The item, it's on you, isn't it? Hand it over, and maybe if I'm in a good mood, I'll leave you a whole corpse!"

"Go to hell!"

"What did you say!"

"I said..."

Gu Han slowly raised his head, his eyes brimming with boundless hatred.

"Go to hell!"

"Very well!"

Gu Cheng trembled with rage.

"When Gu Tian brought you back that day, I knew you had a rebellious streak and would be a disaster. Now it's proven true! You're not one of us, your heart will always be different! You're nothing but a bastard! Gu Yang is the true bloodline of the Gu family, the future of our family! It's because of your appearance that you took what should have belonged to him!"

Beside him,

Two elders also wore expressions of indifference.

Gu Han,

The thorn in the side of everyone in the Gu family!

If he were mediocre, it would have been fine, but he was too outstanding, so much so that everyone in the Gu family felt ashamed in his presence!

And the more outstanding he was,

The deeper the thorn in the hearts of the Gu family members!

"Gu Tian was the same!"

Gu Cheng continued to provoke Gu Han.

"As a member of the Gu family, he didn't consider his kin, Gu Yang, and instead favored you, a bastard! It's laughable that on the day he was dying, he still tried to negotiate with my father using that item, asking him to ensure your safe departure from Sky Martial City! Haha... such deep father-son affection, truly nauseating!"

"Foster father..."

Tears of blood streamed down.

Washing away the last bit of Gu Han's rationality!

"I'll make them all die!"

As the word "die" left his mouth,

His figure had already left its original spot, the sword energy on his blade chilling, as he thrust straight at Gu Cheng!

"Attack!"

Gu Cheng sneered.

"The Yuan Crystals of the Gu family aren't so easily taken!"

Swoosh!

Before he could finish speaking,

The young man, who seemed to have cultivated a speed-focused technique, moved even faster than Gu Han, leaving behind afterimages as he instantly intercepted him!

At the same time,

From the left and right,

The attacks of the other two scattered cultivators also arrived!

The young man had a good plan.

Faced with such an onslaught, the best thing for Gu Han to do would be to retreat, at which point he could use his agile techniques in coordination with the other two to wear Gu Han down!

But he was wrong.

Gu Han, consumed by rage, sought only to kill Gu Cheng and did not dodge, taking two heavy blows head-on!

Pfft!

He spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yet, the force of the blows only made him move three times faster!

Pfft!

A soft sound!@@novelbin@@

A chilling sword energy suddenly flashed, piercing the young man's forehead!

Even in death, the young man's eyes held a trace of confusion, seemingly unable to understand why Gu Han would choose such a mutually destructive tactic.

At that moment,

Gu Han was only a zhang away from Gu Cheng!

"Little beast!"

Gu Cheng laughed viciously, instantly drawing a long knife!

Fire swirled around him, quickly covering the blade!

Blazing Flame Burning Technique!

"Today, I will rid the Gu family of this scourge!"

Whoosh!

As he spoke,

The long knife whipped up a howling sound, carrying intense heat as it slashed towards Gu Han!

Clang!

A metallic ring!

The long sword and long knife collided in an instant!

To Gu Cheng's astonishment, Gu Han's battered long sword directly cut through his long knife!

The sword's momentum unabated, it suddenly swept past him, severing his right arm at the elbow!

"Ah!"

A cry of pain.

"Kill!"

"Kill this little beast for me!"

In that split second,

He felt a hint of a deadly threat!

In an instant,

Fear took root in his heart!

"Ah!"

Suddenly,

Another scream rang out!

He looked up to see Gu Han, bloodied and filled with murderous intent, while the remaining two scattered cultivators... another had fallen!

"Gu Cheng!"

Gu Han ignored the others, charging recklessly towards him!

"Die!"

This was bad!

Gu Cheng's heart skipped a beat, his courage failing him!

He had severely underestimated his strength. If he stayed, he might indeed capsize in the gutter!

Run!

Without a moment's hesitation,

He channeled his cultivation to its fullest, fleeing into the distance!

In his ears,

The sounds of cursing, roaring, and screaming gradually faded.

After a while,

He glanced back and, seeing no one in pursuit, slowed down and gasped for breath.

Too strong!

He couldn't comprehend.

Why Gu Han had become so formidable.

Six Meridian Unblocking Realm experts?

No!

Perhaps even doubling that number would only then give a chance of victory!

"Little beast!"

Scared into such a state by someone he despised, he was filled with shame and resentment, his eyes brimming with malice and unwillingness.

"Wait for it! I will definitely..."

"Gu Cheng!"

Suddenly!

A voice like one from hell rose from behind him!

It was Gu Han!

This was bad!

Gu Cheng's heart lurched, but without daring to glance back, he tried to flee again!

Pfft!

Suddenly,

A flash of sword light.

He felt a sharp pain in his legs, and his head plunged into the dark, foul-smelling mud!

Ignoring his dignity,

He struggled to lift his head, only to see Gu Han looking down at him from above, his body already soaked in blood, some his own, but more from others!

Those eyes...

They seemed to be stained with blood as well!

"Gu Cheng!"

At that moment, Gu Cheng's mind raced, desperately thinking of how to escape death at Gu Han's hands.

"I..."

But Gu Han didn't give him a chance to speak.

Pfft!

The sword light flashed, and a head fell to the ground!

"Foster father!"

"This is the second one!"

...

Inside the cave,

Ah-Sha hugged her legs, crouched in a corner, listening to the faint sounds of battle below, her face filled with helplessness and worry.

"Young Master..."

"You must not die!"

"If you die, I... I won't listen to you anymore!"

"..."

Muttering to herself,

The light at the entrance of the cave was suddenly blocked!

"Young Master!"

Ah-Sha instinctively looked up, only to see Gu Han, who seemed to have walked out of hell!

"Are you alright, Young Master..."

"Sob sob sob... Why, why didn't you let me help, Young Master? I know... I know I could have helped you..."

"Stop crying!"

Gu Han's voice carried a hint of exhaustion.

"This little injury won't kill me!"

"It's about time, let's go."

"Go?"

Ah-Sha wiped away her tears.

"Where to?"

"Back!"

Gu Han gently took her small hand, his voice soft.

"To seek revenge!"
