Supreme Sword Sovereign

Meanwhile.

The Barbaric Wilderness Forest was once again in an uproar.

"Big moves, big moves indeed!"

"Five thousand Yuan Crystals, six Meridian Unblocking Realm experts, tsk tsk, the Gu family has really bled a lot this time!"

"Pity, we don't get a share!"

"What are you dreaming about? Just enjoy the spectacle. In my opinion, Gu Han is more likely doomed this time!"

"That's right!"

A scattered cultivator sneered.

"Six Meridian Unblocking Realm masters can already strut around here! Just with him, Gu Han, no matter how strong, can he really turn the heavens upside down? Hehe, he's as good as dead!"

"You..."

Suddenly.

Another person's face turned pale with shock.

"Look!"

"What's there to look at, it can't be Gu Han coming back, can it?"

"It seems like..."

The color of terror on that person's face intensified.

"It's him!"

"What!"

Everyone followed his pointing direction and their faces changed drastically!

In the distance.

A blood-covered youth, with an aura of death around him, was slowly walking towards the outskirts of the Barbaric Wilderness Forest, holding the hand of a little girl.

Such distinctive features.

Who else could it be but Gu Han?

Moments later.

Gu Han and Ah-Sha gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.

Phew...

Unconsciously.

Everyone seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Gulp!

The scattered cultivator who had predicted Gu Han's death swallowed his saliva gently.

"He... he's still alive?"

"Nonsense, didn't you see? The guy's alive and well!"

"If he's alive, then..."

Click!

At this thought, everyone's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be?

Impossible, right?

Could it be that the six Meridian Unblocking Realm experts who surrounded him were all counter-killed by him alone?

"What's he going to do?"

"Looking at the direction, it seems... he's heading to Sky Martial City?"

"What's he doing there?"

"Nonsense, if you were hunted like that, wouldn't you seek revenge?"

"Let's go!"

A cultivator suddenly spoke up.

"Let's see for ourselves!"

For these lowest-tier scattered cultivators, who often skirt the edge of danger, living day by day, such a rare spectacle every few years was not to be missed.

"Look all you want, but don't get too close!"

"That's superfluous, he's a killing star, who thinks their life is too long?"

"..."

For a moment.

People called their friends and formed groups, following Gu Han from a distance.

...

At the Gu family residence.

Inside the main hall.

Unlike the usual quietness, the hall was now filled with people.

They...

Were naturally the core members of the Gu family's main lineage.

"Grandfather!"

Below.

Gu Yang bowed to Gu Zhang, his gaze sweeping over the clan members, his face full of vigor.

"I've exited my retreat today, I'm not too late, am I?"

"Not at all!"

Gu Zhang stroked his beard, a few more smiles appearing on his originally somber face.

"The timing is just right!"

He could naturally see that Gu Yang's cultivation level had broken through to the sixth layer of Meridian Opening!

"Today."

He slowly stood up.

"Is the day of the Martial Academy qualification battle! And after today, Gu Yang will be the new head of the Gu family. Does anyone have objections?"

"None at all!"

"The young master's talent is astonishing, he's the most suitable candidate!"

"Indeed! The young master is of the true bloodline of our Gu family, becoming the head is naturally a matter of course!"

"Hehe, unlike some people, too selfish, actually thinking of handing over the Gu family to a wolf cub that can't be tamed!"

"..."

The clan members spoke one after another, lavishing praise.

By the way.

They also belittled Gu Han and Gu Tian, both openly and covertly.

"Enough!"

Gu Zhang was quite satisfied with everyone's response and waved his hand grandly.

"Dismiss yourselves and wait, we'll depart shortly!"

"Yes!"

"Grandfather."

Seeing the crowd disperse, Gu Yang asked, "What about my father? Any news?"

"Don't worry!"

Gu Zhang sat down again.

"He's been gone for several days, presumably the matter is settled. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to return today or tomorrow!"

"That's great, Gu Han is doomed this time!"

"What you should be concerned about now is not this!"

Gu Zhang's tone shifted, his face becoming serious.

"You must give it your all in this competition, understand?"

"Why?"

Gu Yang was startled.

"With just those guys, they're not worthy of my full effort!"

"The capital..."

Gu Zhang's gaze was deep.

"A distinguished guest has arrived!"

"A distinguished guest?"

"Indeed, that guest is a member of the royal family! Whether for you or for the Gu family, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! You must win cleanly and impressively this time! If you catch the eye of that guest, your future achievements... will be limitless!"

Even without making it known.

The news of the Seventh Prince's arrival in Sky Martial City had already been discovered by various families.

"Grandfather, rest assured!"

Gu Yang's expression brightened.

"This time, I will let them see who is the most outstanding person in Sky Martial City!"

"Good!"

Gu Zhang nodded.

"You are the hope and future of the Gu family! Whether the Gu family can soar to the skies depends on your performance this time!"

...

Inside Sky Martial City.

It was still that long street.

But compared to before, it seemed a bit deserted.

The Martial Academy qualification battle, an event that only happens every few years, had drawn almost everyone away except for those who truly couldn't leave.

"I really want to go see."

At the city gate, inside a shop.

A shop assistant expressed his regret.

"Missing this, I'll have to wait another five years."

"There's nothing to see."

Beside him.

The shopkeeper glanced at him.

"I heard that young master Gu Yang secluded himself for a month, and his cultivation has broken through to the sixth layer of Meridian Opening. This Martial Academy qualification is undoubtedly his! Tsk tsk, it seems we underestimated him before!"

"That's also... huh?"

The assistant glanced outside out of boredom and suddenly paused.

"Gu Han?"

"Wasn't he wanted? How has he come back?"

Outside.

In the assistant's astonished gaze, Gu Han walked slowly into the city.

Everything.

Seemed exactly as it was a month ago.

Only this time.

We are ", find us on google.

Last time it was Ah-Sha carrying him, but this time, he was carrying Ah-Sha.

Ignoring the gazes of the people around him.

He gently set Ah-Sha down.

"Young master."

"Mhm."

"This Martial Academy qualification, isn't it yours?"

"Mhm."@@novelbin@@

"Those people are too despicable! Not only did they harm you, but they also took everything that was yours!"

"Let's go."

Gu Han took her small hand.

"Let's go see my foster father first."

Compared to before.

His expression and tone were now eerily calm, so calm it was almost abnormal.

"This guy!"

Watching Gu Han's retreating figure, the shopkeeper clicked his tongue in wonder.

"He really has nine lives!"

"If it were someone else, they would have had more than enough deaths, but him..."

Whoosh!

Suddenly.

A large crowd surged in from outside the city gate, leaving the shopkeeper stunned.

"Brother."

After a moment, he grabbed a scattered cultivator.

"What's all this about?"

"Nonsense, we're here for the excitement!"

"Excitement?"

"You don't know yet? Did you see that Gu Han? In the Barbaric Wilderness Forest, six Meridian Unblocking Realm experts surrounded him. Guess what happened?"

"What happened?"

"He counter-killed them all by himself!"

"What!"

The shopkeeper was completely shocked.

Six Meridian Unblocking Realm experts... counter-killed by Gu Han alone?

"Keep an eye on things here!"

Unable to contain his curiosity, he quickly instructed the assistant and hurriedly followed the crowd.

The Martial Academy qualification battle.

Once every five years, it wasn't too extraordinary.

But this kind of revenge and counter-killing drama, in this small Sky Martial City, might only be seen once in a lifetime, and he naturally didn't want to miss it.

...

At the Gu family residence.

The main gate.

Half an hour earlier, Gu Zhang had left with most of the elite clan members, leaving only a few guards to watch over the house.

Bang!

Suddenly.

A loud noise!

The grand and beautifully carved main gate cracked upon impact, turning into a pile of debris!

"Who is it!"

"How dare you!"

"Who's the reckless one daring to barge into the Gu family, seeking death!"

"..."

Hearing the commotion.

Several guards and clan members gathered around, their faces filled with outrage.

Amidst the dust.

Gu Han, with Ah-Sha, slowly appeared before everyone.

"Gu Han!"

Everyone was startled.

"It's you!"

"You dare to come back!"

"Quick, seize this patricidal villain!"

"..."

In an instant.

Several guards charged at him!

"Scram."

Gu Han spoke indifferently.

Boom!

As soon as he spoke.

The Spiritual Power that had been dormant inside him suddenly became wildly turbulent, an invisible aura burst forth, instantly sending several guards flying back, spitting blood!

From beginning to end.

Gu Han never gave them a glance, just leading Ah-Sha towards the back courtyard.

There...

Was none other than the Gu family ancestral hall!

"Stop!"

Suddenly.

An elderly Gu family member blocked Gu Han's path.

"This is the Gu family ancestral hall, you, an outsider, have no right to enter!"

"Move aside."

Gu Han slowly raised his long sword.

"Or die."

"Indeed a wolf cub that can't be tamed, Gu Tian was blind to pick you up. Such a scourge like you, he even thought of handing over the Gu family to you..."

Bang!

Before he could finish.

He was already spitting blood, flying far away!

No one else dared to speak!

"Ah-Sha, wait for me."

"Mhm."

Clang!

Gu Han casually plunged his long sword into the stone ground!

The message was clear.

Whoever dared to approach would die!

Pushing open the doors of the ancestral hall, the first thing he saw was a long offering table, with the spiritual tablets of the Gu family ancestors neatly arranged according to seniority.

And in the corner.

A spiritual tablet covered in dust was carelessly thrown on the ground.

On the tablet.

A clear footprint was visible.

Gu Han's body trembled, his eyes instantly reddened.

That tablet.

Belonged to Gu Tian.

Thump!

Gu Han knelt heavily on the ground!

"Foster father!"
