Supreme Sword Sovereign

Chapter 18 – Capture the soul, the truth is revealed!



In the quiet chamber.

The Seventh Prince, who was about to leave, caught sight of the scene outside and suddenly became interested again.

"Manager Li."

"Ah?"

"It seems there's more excitement."

"..."

Seeing Gu Han's figure, Manager Li's face darkened like the bottom of a pot, his heart twisting uncomfortably.

It's such a small world for enemies!

Why did he run into him again!

"Manager Li?"

Noticing his odd expression, the Seventh Prince curiously asked, "What, you know him too?"

"Hm? Your Highness also..."

"I've seen him from a distance once before."

"Previously..."

Thinking of Gu Han's prior attitude, Manager Li, with a darkened face, recounted the events that had occurred in the Barbaric Wilderness Forest.

...

"Scoundrel!"

In the outer chamber.

Gu Zhang bellowed angrily.

"You, a patricide, dare to spout such nonsense here!"

"Tsk tsk, what an accusation!"

"Exactly, not even letting the man finish his words, do you really think Sky Martial City belongs to the Gu family?"

To the side.

The Zhang and Wang family heads once again spoke out in mockery.

"City Lord!"

Gu Zhang ignored the two of them.

"This child is a disgrace to the Gu family and to Sky Martial City; it's best to apprehend him quickly!"

He cursed inwardly.

What was Gu Cheng doing!

Six Meridian Unblocking Realm cultivators ambushing him, and yet he managed to escape!

"Gu Han."

Liu Yuan's expression was somewhat gloomy.

"Step back!"

"I want fairness!" Gu Han looked him straight in the eyes.

"You, dare to repeat that?" Liu Yuan's eyes narrowed.

Previously, he had some admiration for Gu Han, even considering betrothing Liu Ying to him, but after Gu Han was branded a patricide and his cultivation was completely crippled, he naturally stopped paying him any attention.

Moreover.

Now that the Seventh Prince was in Sky Martial City.

He had Liu Ying go out of her way to flatter and please him, naturally looking down on Gu Han even more.

"I want fairness."

Gu Han took a deep breath.

"I hope the City Lord can give me a chance!"

"How audacious!"

Liu Yuan rebuked: "Someone, take him..."

Mid-sentence.

His expression suddenly changed.

"Fine."

He sat down again, but his attitude had undergone a drastic change.

"I'll give you this chance!"

"City Lord!"

Gu Zhang was somewhat anxious.

"You..."

"No need for more words, just watch!"

...

In the quiet chamber.

"Your Highness."

Manager Li was visibly reluctant.

"This kid has a terrible temper, what's there to see!"

Just now, it was the Seventh Prince who had him send a message to Liu Yuan, letting the contest continue.

"You're biased."

The Seventh Prince glanced at him, with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.

"Regardless, the Beast Core of the Red Flame Snake was given by him, just for that alone, returning a favor for a favor, I naturally have to give him a chance."

"..."

Manager Li's face darkened further.

That was exchanged for a pill personally refined by the Ghost Doctor, that kid made a killing!

...

"Gu Yang."

Seeing Liu Yuan agree, Gu Han once again looked towards Gu Yang.

"Fight me."

"Do you dare?"

At this moment, his body was already soaked in blood, with several ferocious wounds visible, looking extremely pitiful, yet his aura completely overwhelmed Gu Yang!

And at this moment.

A Gu family member who had hurried over whispered a few words to Gu Zhang.

Crack!

A flash of murderous intent in Gu Zhang's eyes, he crushed the armrest of the sturdy chair to pieces!

"Little beast, seeking death!"

On the stage.

Gu Yang was in a difficult position.

"Fine!"

He glanced at Gu Han.

"Today, I will cleanse the Gu family of this scourge and completely eliminate you!"

If Gu Han were unharmed.

He would naturally not dare to agree so readily.

But seeing Gu Han's current state, he felt confident in his improved cultivation and divine abilities, naturally possessing a confidence he never had before.

"Today."

Gu Han handed the spirit tablet to Ah-Sha and slowly stepped onto the stage.

"I shall avenge my adoptive father!"

Avenge?

The crowd was taken aback.

"Did he just say he's avenging the Gu family head?"

"It seems so."

"Wasn't the Gu family head killed by him, whose revenge is he seeking?"

"It's hard to say, let's just watch and find out."

"..."

Amidst the discussions, their eyes were glued to the stage, afraid of missing anything.

Whoosh!

On the stage.

Gu Yang brandished his spear, instantly pushing his cultivation to the peak!

A faint red glow spread like flowing water, enveloping his entire body, even the spear!

"Is that... the Gu family's Blazing Flame Burning Technique?"

"Impressive, truly impressive!"

"Gu Yang's cultivation is not low either!"

"Hehe."

A Gu family member smirked proudly.

"Our young master is a rare talent, not to mention his cultivation, but he has also mastered the Blazing Flame Burning Technique to the realm of form and spirit! He's a great talent of the Gu family! Taking care of Gu Han will be a breeze, right?"

"Pfft!"

Suddenly, a scattered cultivator who had followed along laughed.

"What are you laughing at!"

"I'm laughing at your young master's overestimation of himself, afraid he'll get chopped by Gu Han in a moment!"

"Nonsense! The spear in my young master's hand is a top-grade Spiritual Instrument! With that broken sword in Gu Han's hand and his injuries, he's definitely no match for the young master!"

"Hehe."

The scattered cultivator couldn't be bothered with him.

"Your eyes aren't blind, just watch for yourself!"

These scattered cultivators.

Having witnessed Gu Han's prowess, they naturally understood the lethal power of that broken sword in Gu Han's hand.

"Gu Han!"

On the stage.

Gu Yang stared intently at Gu Han.

"Today, I will take your life to clear my own name!"

Defeating Gu Han head-on.

Was a long-held wish buried deep in his heart.

Whoosh!

As he spoke.

He launched the first attack!

Like an arrow released from a bow, his figure flickered, the spear shook, and the deadly spear tip aimed straight for Gu Han's brow!

Gu Han didn't move.

"Die!"

Gu Yang's speed increased threefold, the red glow on his body growing even brighter!

Just as the spear was half a foot away from Gu Han.

Gu Han moved!

Swoosh!

With a casual swing of his sword, he made a light slash!

Clang!

A crisp sound!@@novelbin@@

The arena fell silent in an instant!

On the stage.

Gu Yang didn't dare move, the edge of Gu Han's long sword was only half an inch from his forehead, and his top-grade Spiritual Instrument spear was now broken in two, its glow dimmed, rendered useless!

"Tsk tsk."

The scattered cultivator mocked.

"Form and spirit? Top-grade Spiritual Instrument? Hehe!"

"No..."

The Gu family member turned pale.

"It's impossible, how could the young master lose!"

The crowd was dumbfounded.

The Gu Yang who was just a moment ago invincible among the younger generation of Sky Martial City... couldn't even take a single sword strike from Gu Han?

"Gu Yang!"

From afar.

Gu Zhang stood up instantly!

"This..."

Gu Yang's face was filled with disbelief.

"You're clearly injured, my cultivation has clearly improved, I can't possibly lose!"

Gu Han ignored him.

The sword pressed down slightly.

In an instant.

A stream of blood flowed from Gu Yang's forehead.

Helplessly.

He had to lower his stance.

As the sword continued to press down, Gu Yang's body bent lower and lower.

Hiss!

The crowd suddenly realized Gu Han's intention.

He...

Wanted Gu Yang to kneel!

"Little beast!"

Gu Zhang's face was ferocious.

"Let him go! Otherwise, I will tear you to pieces!"

"Speak."

Gu Han remained unmoved.

"How did you harm my adoptive father?"

As he spoke.

A cold light flashed in his eyes, seemingly piercing straight into Gu Yang's heart!

Soul Capturing Technique!

Thump!

Gu Yang's eyes went blank, and he knelt to the ground instantly!

"Gu Tian's cultivation was too high, my grandfather couldn't match him, so we bribed Gu Commander to secretly poison Gu Tian's food..."

"Shut up!"

Gu Zhang was furious.

"Shut your mouth!"

As he spoke.

He was about to make a move against Gu Han!

"Speak, let him speak!"

"That's right, let everyone know, it turns out your Gu family is a bunch of hypocrites!"

"..."

A group of family heads with grim expressions blocked Gu Zhang.

The opportunity to overthrow the Gu family was right before their eyes, and naturally, they wouldn't allow anyone to spoil it.

"After the poison took effect."

Gu Yang continued in a daze.

"My grandfather secretly took your sword, and together with my father and two elders, they ambushed Gu Tian. We didn't expect his last stand to almost let him escape..."

"Why!"

Gu Han's body trembled slightly.

"My adoptive father spent his life toiling for the Gu family..."

"Because he had selfish motives!"

A hint of resentment crept into Gu Yang's tone.

"He always thought of you, gave you all the benefits, why! You're just a bastard picked up from somewhere, I'm the true bloodline of the Gu family, I should be the young master... no, I should be the family head!"

Word by word.

Clearly fell on everyone's ears.

The arena paused for a moment.

"So malicious!"

"The great Gu family, all a bunch of sanctimonious people!"

"Alas, who would have thought Gu Han was truly wronged, the Gu family's actions are despicable!"

"Still the number one family in Sky Martial City? Pah!"

A torrent of discussion arose.

Aside from the Gu family members, the sentiment was overwhelmingly on Gu Han's side.

"Hehe, how did they become number one?"

"Who doesn't know, isn't it all thanks to the hard work of the Gu family head?"

"Have the nerve to call Gu Han a bastard? The Red Maple Valley mines, weren't they conquered by him? And those medicinal fields and spirit veins outside the city, weren't they won back from the other families by him? Every year, the Gu family contributes so many Beast Cores, isn't it always Gu Han who takes the lead, the first to go to the Barbaric Wilderness Forest to slay Demonic Beasts?"

"Almost all of the Gu family's foundation was laid by him and his father; without them, where would Gu Yang get the Yuan Crystals to buy that top-grade Spiritual Instrument?"

"Exactly! A bunch of parasites who only know how to enjoy the fruits of others' labor, still have the face to say he had selfish motives?"

"..."

The crowd cursed.

Among them.

Naturally, there were those who genuinely felt guilty and spoke up for Gu Han, but many more were just other families stirring up trouble.

The effect was naturally good.

From today on.

The Gu family's reputation was completely ruined, and they were finished!

Among the crowd.

The Gu family members were so humiliated they couldn't lift their heads.

With their fig leaf torn away, they were almost unable to face themselves, dying of shame and anger, yet in their hearts, there wasn't a trace of regret, and they even hated Gu Han more.

In the end.

They had never recognized Gu Han.

And at this moment, Gu Han.

No longer needed their recognition.

He gently took Gu Tian's spirit tablet, placed it in front of Gu Yang.

With a swipe of his hand.

Clang!

A fiery red spear instantly pierced into the bluestone ground!

Fire Cloud Spear!

"Adoptive father!"

"Those who harmed you, all must accompany you in death!"

As he spoke.

He took out four heads, neatly arranged in front of Gu Tian's spirit tablet!

The first.

Was Gu Commander's.

The next two, were two elders of the Gu family.

The last one.

Was unmistakably Gu Cheng!

Slap!

Having done this, he slapped his sword on Gu Yang's shoulder, a chilling sword energy instantly entered his body, severing his meridians into shreds!

"Ah!!"

The immense pain.

Instantly brought Gu Yang back to his senses.

"You... what have you done! My cultivation, my meridians! Dad? How could..."

Seeing Gu Cheng's head, his face twisted.

"Just like a dog."

Gu Han stared at him, his voice icy: "A dog that has lost its home!"

Gu Yang's face turned pale.

These words.

Were exactly what he had said to Gu Han back then, and now with their situations reversed, these words were returned to him exactly as they were!

"You... dare to insult me?"

His eyes bloodshot, he stared intently at Gu Han: "And you dared to kill my father?"

"He harmed my adoptive father, he naturally had to pay with his life."

"Little beast!"

Not far away.

Gu Zhang's face was cold.

"You dare to kill my son, cripple my grandson, today I won't let you off!"

Swoosh!

As he spoke.

A layer of red flames ignited on his body, rushing towards Gu Han.

This time.

No one stopped him.

The goal had been achieved, and now it was time to watch the drama unfold.

Watching the nearly frenzied Gu Zhang, Gu Han's eyes also turned red.

Adoptive father.

This is the last one!
