Chapter 81: The Xiao Family? Point Me in the Right Direction!

 

The Yang family is the truth!

Looking at the somewhat confused Gu Qi before him, Gu Yuan sighed softly, “Foolish child, in this world there is no such thing as truth. Those with the biggest fists make the truth, understand?”

Gu Qi turned his head to look into the distance and shook his head slightly, “Father, it’s not like that. Our ancestors didn’t stand with the Yang family back then, but with the truth…”

Gu Yuan stared at Gu Qi, “If you dare to walk out there, not only will our father-son relationship be severed, but from this moment on, you will no longer be a member of the Gu family.”

Gu Qi looked at Gu Yuan in shock.

Gu Yuan calmly looked at him, “You have received great favor from the family. If you cannot prioritize the family, the family will no longer want you.”

At this moment, an elderly man standing beside Gu Yuan stepped forward and sighed softly, “Young Qi, don’t blame your father. As the clan leader, he naturally must think of the entire family. Our Gu family has come a long way to reach where we are today, and we absolutely cannot let one person’s mistake affect the entire family. You’ve seen the situation – Ye Tianming not only targets our young master but also has connections with the remnants of the Tianlong clan. If you go out to support him now, aren’t you pushing our Gu family toward a dead end?”

Gu Qi wanted to say something more, but the elder stopped him and said solemnly, “Everything must prioritize the family. Besides, even if you stand up, you won’t be able to change anything.”

Gu Qi shook his head, “Father, Uncle, I’m not clever enough to think about all that. I only know that brotherhood demands loyalty. My brother is being bullied today, and I cannot stand by…”

As he spoke, he ran out directly, shouting loudly, “Whoever dares to touch my brother, I’ll fight them to the death!”

Everyone: “…….”

When Gu Qi ran out, the Gu family immediately stood behind Nalan Ying and the others, and promptly issued a statement that Gu Qi no longer had any connection with the Gu family!

Facing the questioning from Fang Qian and others, Nalan Ying and her group looked uncomfortable, knowing they were in the wrong – not just wrong, but also breaking the law.

Because Ye Tianming had not broken any law, on what grounds could they arrest him?

At this moment, Bai Ci suddenly stepped forward, “Guanxuan Guards, take him down.”

He naturally couldn’t let this matter drag on, because once Yang Jia regained consciousness, this difficult problem would fall on Yang Jia’s shoulders. He couldn’t let Yang Jia do these “dirty deeds,” but someone had to do them.

And that person could only be him.

Hearing Bai Ci’s words, the Guanxuan Guards were about to take action, but just then, An Yan suddenly stepped forward and questioned Bai Ci, “On what charges are you arresting him?”

Fa Zhen also stepped forward, coldly staring at Bai Ci, “What’s this, Bai Ci? Are you trying to use trumped-up charges in my Guanxuan Universe?”

Fang Qian also stepped forward, staring intently at Bai Ci, “It’s clear he’s choosing to be shameless.”

Bai Ci calmly said, “I have confirmed that Ye Tianming is suspected of brutally killing personnel from the Celestial Treasure Pavilion…”

An Yan angrily said, “Shameless! Bai Ci, stop making up these baseless accusations…”

Bai Ci directly interrupted An Yan’s words, “Guanxuan Guards, take him down immediately.”

The Guanxuan Guards all looked toward the Cabinet’s First Counselor Xu Yuan on the right, who nodded slightly.

He naturally understood that this matter couldn’t be left for Yang Jia to handle; it had to be done by people like them.

The king of the Guanxuan Universe must remain pure and unblemished.

After receiving Xu Yuan’s signal, the Guanxuan Guards no longer hesitated and rushed toward Ye Tianming.

An Yan and the others were completely unable to stop them. These Guanxuan Guards were from the Guanxuan Realm, with terrifyingly powerful strength, including experts at the Circle-Breaking Realm, the ceiling of combat power in the entire universe.

They had no ability to stop them!

But at this moment, the sound of a sword suddenly resonated from the scene, followed by a ten-thousand-zhang sword light streaking across the sky, forcefully driving back the Guanxuan Guards who were charging at the front.

Everyone was startled and turned to look. Not far in front of Ye Tianming stood an old man – it was Elder Mu.

Elder Mu held a long sword, coldly watching those people in the scene, emanating a terrifying sharp sword intent that seemed capable of crushing the heavens, making people shudder.

A Circle-Breaking Realm sword cultivator!

At this time, the veiled woman suddenly walked slowly toward the center of the scene, “The Guanxuan Universe acting in such a manner is truly despicable.”

Xiao Bu angrily pointed at the veiled woman, “I said it! This Ye Tianming is colluding with foreign civilizations, attempting to subvert our Guanxuan Universe… Look, everyone can see it now! They…”

Before he could finish speaking, a sword light suddenly slashed fiercely toward him.

Xiao Bu’s expression changed drastically. How could he withstand a Circle-Breaking Realm expert? And a sword cultivator at that.

Swish!

His arms were directly severed.

Elder Mu coldly stared at Xiao Bu, “You are not qualified to speak to my princess.”

Xiao Bu: “…….”

At this moment, Xu Yuan suddenly stepped forward and looked at the veiled woman, “Does your Ancient Civilization want to go to war with our Guanxuan Universe?”

The veiled woman fearlessly met Xu Yuan’s gaze, “In one sentence, I cannot stand your behavior.”

Xu Yuan frowned, and just then, a middle-aged man wearing golden armor suddenly appeared in front of Xu Yuan and said solemnly, “First Counselor, a group of powerful experts has forcibly entered our Guanxuan Universe and is heading this way. They will arrive in just a few breaths!”

Hearing this, Xu Yuan immediately flew into a rage, “Your Ancient Civilization is outrageous, daring to invade my Guanxuan Universe! Come, immediately issue orders to all major families and civilizations across the universe to come and defend against the enemy!”

Soon, an order was transmitted throughout the entire Guanxuan Universe. Countless first and second-tier families and sects immediately dispatched their strongest experts to rush to Wanzhou Realm. In addition, major stellar civilizations also sent their top experts after receiving the order.

The Ancient Civilization’s action was undoubtedly a declaration of war against the Guanxuan Universe!

Countless Guanxuan Universe experts rushed madly toward Wanzhou Realm!

At this moment, above Wanzhou Realm, space-time suddenly shattered, and one hundred and sixty experts wearing purple-gold armor charged out together. As soon as they emerged, an overwhelming pressure immediately made Wanzhou Realm appear illusory.

The Divine Guardian Army!

One of the most elite forces of the Ancient Civilization.

At this time, Xu Yuan suddenly shouted from a distance, “Protect the young master!”

All around, countless Guanxuan Guards and Realm Defenders immediately surrounded Yang Jia. Not only that, but numerous ghost-like figures in black clothes also appeared in the surroundings.

Shadow Guards!

At this moment, the leader of the Divine Guardian Army suddenly appeared before the veiled woman and respectfully bowed. Just as he was about to speak, the veiled woman said, “Escort Young Master Ye to the Ancient Civilization!”

“Understood!”

The Divine Guardian Army leader immediately walked up to Ye Tianming, “Young Master Ye, please come with us.”

Ye Tianming, holding the lifeless Fucang, slowly stood up. He raised his head to look at the distant Yang Jia, who had already fallen into a coma and was now surrounded and protected by countless top experts of the Guanxuan Universe.

Ye Tianming stared intently at Yang Jia, and at his waist, the Xingdao Sword trembled violently.

The veiled woman suddenly appeared beside Ye Tianming and stared at him, “Top experts from all major star systems and civilizations of the Guanxuan Universe are rushing here. We must leave immediately.”

Ye Tianming took a deep breath and, carrying Fucang, walked to the Divine Guardian Army leader’s side. The latter suddenly turned around and waved his sleeve, “Open!”

Boom!

He forcibly opened a space-time tunnel, and then everyone rushed into it.

“Ridiculous!”

Just then, a terrifying aura suddenly transmitted from the horizon, “Do you think you can come and go from the Guanxuan Universe as you please?”

As the voice fell, a terrifying force suddenly forcibly sealed off the space where the veiled woman and others were located, blocking the space-time tunnel and preventing any further traversal.

A Circle-Breaking Realm expert!

“Elder Mu!”

The veiled woman suddenly shouted in anger.

Hum!

A sword sound suddenly resonated from the horizon, followed by a sword light sweeping across the scene, forcibly tearing apart that terrifying sealing force.

“Hmm?”

At this time, from the depths of the void, a surprised voice came. The next moment, a shadowy figure suddenly broke through the void, appearing above Wanzhou Realm, and then violently collided with Elder Mu.

All around, those who had been watching the scene had already hurriedly fled.

In a battle between experts of this level, just a single breath of energy was enough to easily destroy them.

In the space-time tunnel, the veiled woman turned to look at Elder Mu, “Elder Mu, hurry!”

Elder Mu shook his head, “Princess, this Young Master Ye’s future achievements will certainly be no less than Yang Jia’s. Please make sure to bring him back to our civilization…”

After speaking, he suddenly ignited his physical body and soul. In an instant, a terrifying sword aura swept through heaven and earth, actually forcing back that shadowy figure.

Elder Mu held his sword and looked at the Guanxuan Academy experts in the scene, laughing loudly, “Come, let this old man see the top experts of the Guanxuan Universe…”

Hum!

In his hand, the long sword vibrated violently, and a sword sound resonated throughout the entire Guanxuan Universe!

Not far away, Xiao Bu hurriedly said, “First Counselor, we cannot let Ye Tianming leave…”

Xu Yuan suddenly said, “Send orders to the Sword Sect to stop them at all costs!”

If they allowed the Ancient Civilization to invade the Guanxuan Universe and safely take someone away, the Guanxuan Universe would lose tremendous face.

The Guanxuan Universe could not afford to lose this face!

All these Ancient Civilization experts who had invaded the Guanxuan Universe must die!

Xiao Bu suddenly looked at the woman in the plain dress in the distance, “And her too. This woman was standing behind Ye Tianming earlier. She must be Ye Tianming’s backer. She must also die…”

The woman in the plain dress!

Xu Yuan turned to look at the woman in the plain dress, and at this moment, she slowly stood up.

Seeing this, Xiao Bu hurriedly said, “She’s trying to escape. We can’t let her escape.”

As he spoke, he directly released a powerful aura to envelop the woman in the plain dress, but soon he was surprised to find that his aura had completely disappeared without a trace.

Seeing this, Xiao Bu narrowed his eyes, “She’s got something.”

He glanced at Yang Jia in the distance and then said, “You witch, if you want to harm our young master, you’ll have to ask if my Xiao family agrees first.”

The woman in the plain dress stopped in her tracks and slowly turned to look at Xiao Bu, “The Xiao family? Point me in the direction!”
