Chapter 686: Unable to persuade
I saw Mr. Gu's face on the bounty order personally issued by the Immortal Venerable.
For Wu Zhu, it was enough to make him spit out the wine in his mouth. It wasn't that he was scared, but rather that he was surprised that the bounty order issued by the Ancient Fallen Immortal Venerable seemed a bit idiotic!
What is Mr. Gu's true strength?
Wu Zhu didn't know.
He had no right to see Gu Heng's true strength, not even the Desert Python Mystic Immortal hanging around his neck. In their eyes, Gu Heng seemed to be able to see through everything, yet he couldn't see through anything. Under that mist, they seemed to see only a mortal.
But the Demon Python Immortal still told Wu Zhu.
Mr. Gu was able to pass through the main hall unscathed. The array that could even kill a Celestial King was nothing but a trivial matter to Gu Heng, and it was ineffective!
and so.
Mr. Gu must be at least a Celestial Emperor, or even a Celestial King!
Then.
For a Celestial Venerable to issue a bounty on a Celestial King or even a Celestial Emperor, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it idiotic.
There's also a possibility that the Ancient Immortal Venerable had no idea how powerful Mr. Gu was, so he planned to give him a tougher approach...
But no matter what.
The moment I saw this bounty poster.
Wu Zhu already understood that the Ancient Immortal Venerable was definitely courting death, and that the Qingliu Manor Lord who was trying to claim the reward was playing with fire and getting burned!
Although his cultivation had been arduous in the past, Wu Zhu considered himself to be quite sharp-minded. Before meeting Gu Heng, Wu Zhu would have been quite worried about beings like the Ancient Fallen Immortal Venerable, but unfortunately, he had already encountered someone even more powerful than an Immortal Venerable!
Then what is there to worry about?
"Young Master Wu, I apologize for this matter, but since Immortal Venerable Gu Yun has offered such a price, I will not allow anyone else to compete with me!"
Qingliu paid no attention to the four women at this moment; they were no longer a threat.
The key is this Wu Zhu.
If he also wants a reward... well, then we'll just have to make do with him.
"Ladies, it seems you have a relationship with Mr. Gu?"
Ignoring Qingliu's aggressive words, Wu Zhu first looked at Bai Feier.
“That’s right. We separated from Mr. Gu outside the Forbidden Zone of Dead Souls and haven’t seen him for some time now, but you just mentioned that we were planning to go find him…”
"But now it seems that someone wants to use us for a reward."
Bai Feier's eyes flashed with a cold light, and her voice was icy cold.
She stared intently at Qingliu, who merely sneered. His refined and amiable demeanor of the past week had been completely torn away, leaving only pure greed.
But further discussion is pointless; Qingliu has already made his decision.
They intend to offer the heads of those four women to the Immortal Venerable!
“Since you have a relationship with Mr. Gu, then fine, I’ll handle this matter. You ladies don’t need to worry.”
Wu Zhu waved his hand, signaling Bai Feier and the others to calm down.
He decided to take charge of this matter!
Although this is tantamount to inviting trouble, if I don't step in to protect them now, the four of them will definitely not escape this calamity. If Mr. Gu finds out afterward, Wu Zhuben will have the opportunity to intervene, but he chooses to stand by and watch. What should I do then?
Although Wu Zhu didn't think he was wrong to do so, and that he shouldn't meddle in things that weren't his business, sometimes whether something is reasonable or not depends solely on whether one is powerful or not.
Mr. Gu's fist is much bigger than that of the Immortal Venerable, so he is right!
This Ancient Immortal Venerable and the Lord of Qingliu Manor are both doing things that are unreasonable and baseless!
“Master Qingliu, you cannot touch those four. I’m not threatening you, but this is for your own good.”
"I won't hide it. The Mr. Gu I just mentioned has a relationship with these four girls. By taking them away, you are offending Mr. Gu's authority. Do you know what the consequences will be?"
Wu Zhu's tone was full of certainty; these words were not mere idle talk. Yet, this very certainty only provoked Qing Liu's disdainful sneer: "Hahaha! Young Master Wu, you may fool yourself, but don't even think about fooling this master!"
"By telling mysterious and cryptic stories, you make people think you're some kind of prodigy who has received help from a wise and experienced senior..."
"But I know very well that you are the biggest piece of trash in the Wu clan!"
"There's no Mr. Gu here!"
The sound of the clear stream suddenly became sharp and piercing.
Upon hearing this, Wu Zhu was so angry that he trembled all over. This guy had to bring up the very thing he didn't want to talk about!
"No need to say more."
“It doesn’t matter if this guy doesn’t believe in Young Master Gu’s existence, but we won’t sit idly by and wait to die.”
Having said all that, and with swords drawn, Bai Feier knew words were powerless, so she drew her sword directly, her natal immortal sword gleaming coldly! Li Feichan and the Shu sisters were also ready for battle, and since they now respected Bai Feier, they also drew their weapons!
If you want to use those four to claim a reward, you'll have to have the ability to do so.
"Hmph, fine, let's fight if we need to."
Wu Zhu didn't want to persuade him anymore. This Qingliu had a foul mouth and kept rubbing salt in people's wounds. How could such a despicable person not be taught a lesson?
But as soon as they decided to mobilize their forces, the expressions on the faces of the five men immediately changed.
They couldn't even muster the power of the Dao!
Not only that, but even his mind began to wander, and his entire body began to slowly lose its strength...
Bai Feier's gaze immediately fell on the farewell banquet table.
"You actually poisoned me?!"
"Hehe, the Ancient Immortal Venerable wants you alive, and unharmed. If he hurts you, the price won't be so good."
Qingliu remained calm; this farewell banquet was his trump card, intended to prevent them from rebelling.
If the Ancient Immortal Venerable hadn't had so many demands, he would have crippled these four brats' cultivation and limbs long ago, and seen how they could resist.
But it doesn't matter.
Every effort will be rewarded.
“Tie them all up, including that good-for-nothing third young master of the Wu clan.”
Qingliu waved his hand, and his other subordinates immediately surrounded him.
He personally took the four women to the Dragon Palace. As for Wu Zhu, he would leave him here for the time being. Anyway, he wouldn't die after being poisoned by the Hunyuan Powder, and the Wu clan would eventually find out that their third young master was missing.
We will naturally rescue him when the time comes.
But by then, Qingliu had already received the reward from the Ancient Immortal Venerable and was content to serve as a retainer in the Dragon Palace!
"Senior Desert Python, it's your turn!"
The brown serpent around Wu Zhu's neck suddenly lunged forward!
The Desert Python Xuanxian watched this farce with cold eyes, but in the end it knew it still had to intervene, for the same reason as Wu Zhu.
Protecting them is repaying Mr. Gu's favor.
Mo Mang Xuanxian knew he didn't have much say, since he was only spared because Mr. Gu had kindly allowed him to live.
So it summoned a violent gust of wind, which instantly lifted the entire Qingliu Manor up!
Qingliu's subordinates were simply unable to withstand the power of Xuanxian.
Everything was torn to shreds in the wind!
