Gu Xicheng took a deep breath and directed a stream of air to form a tornado, wreaking havoc in the main hall.
He felt that in his current state, even if he met the old bastards of the Zhou and Tang Clans at the same time, he was confident that he could defeat them easily.
The intermediate stage of the Qi Nucleation realm was the realm that he had dreamed of. He had worked hard for 20 to 30 years, but he had not crossed the threshold between the beginning and intermediate stage of the Qi Nucleation realm.
"Old Man Gu, how do you feel?"
Mo Wen asked with a smile. It was not easy to use the Soul Devouring Needle Technique. Every time he used it, his Cultivation would drop a little. It would take five to six days to practice it back again. It was definitely an arduous and unrewarding job.
"Haha, very good. In tomorrow's battle, I am not afraid of the Zhou and Tang Clans playing any tricks," Gu Xicheng said with a smile.
Gu Xicheng said with a radiant smile, his eyes filled with surprise. Although his current cultivation could only be maintained for two days, with the current situation of the Gu Clan Fort, it was simply a timely help.
"I'm afraid the people of the Zhou Clan will not appear tomorrow," Mo Wen curled his lips and said.
"Huh? Why do you say so, young friend Mo? "Gu Xicheng looked at Mo Wen, puzzled.
"Because the Zhou Clan Clan leader is dead. Now, the Zhou Clan's Manor house is probably holding a funeral," Mo Wen said with a smile.
With the death of the old man of the Zhou Clan, the Zhou Clan's Manor house had lost its pillar. Without the support of the Qi Nucleation realm expert, how would the Zhou Clan dare to have any designs on Gu Clan Fort? The death of the Zhou Clan Clan leader and Zhou Chonglong was a devastating blow to the Zhou Clan's Manor house.
"What? Zhou Jianwu, that old fellow, is dead! "
Gu Xicheng was shocked and looked at Mo Wen in disbelief.
Mo Wen nodded slightly.
"You … you killed him …"
Gu Xicheng drew in a cold breath. In the afternoon, Mo Wen had just exchanged blows with the Zhou Clan leader. Now that Zhou Jianwu was dead, who else could it be but Mo Wen?
He had originally thought that Mo Wen had accidentally encountered Zhou Jianwu and had luckily escaped from him. He had never thought that Zhou Jianwu would actually die at Mo Wen's hands.
"I was just lucky."
Mo Wen said with a smile. Killing Zhou Jianwu was indeed a fluke. If he had to do it again, even if he could kill Zhou Jianwu, he would most likely have to pay a hefty price. He would not have just suffered some ordinary injuries.
Gu Xicheng smacked his lips. Goodness gracious, who exactly was this Mo Wen? He was very clear about Zhou Jianwu's abilities. He was an old rival of many years. His Cultivation was similar to Gu Xicheng's. Zhou Jianwu had fought with Gu Xicheng for dozens of years and had never won against him. Mo Wen had actually killed him!
At this moment, he once again felt that Mo Wen was very mysterious. Previously, he was already very shocked that he knew such a heaven-defying acupuncture technique like the Soul Devouring Needle Technique. Now, he was so shocked that he was somewhat speechless.
Who else in the world could have such a capable youth, other than those few people in the legends? With Mo Wen's ability, he was qualified to compete for the outstanding talents of the younger generation.
"The Tang Family's Patriarch and Gu Xifu should be in the Zhou Family's Villa right now, but it's hard to say if they'll still be there tomorrow."
Mo Wen said with a deeper meaning. With the death of the Zhou Family's Patriarch, Zhou Jianwu, the Zhou and Tang Family's plan to annex the Gu Clan Fort would undoubtedly be ruined halfway. The arranged battle tomorrow would probably be aborted.
Meanwhile, the Tang Family's Patriarch and Gu Xifu still didn't know that Gu Xicheng had accepted the Soul Devouring Needle Technique, so they definitely wouldn't continue to have designs on the Gu Clan Fort.
However, the truth couldn't be concealed. The news that Gu Xicheng had accepted the Soul Devouring Needle Technique, causing him to be unable to use his martial arts for a year would be spread out sooner or later. By then, the Gu Clan Fort wouldn't have any Qi Nucleation realm experts holding the fort. The Tang Family alone would be able to bully them. Moreover, there was still Gu Xifu, who was eyeing the Gu Clan Fort covetously.
Hence, Gu Xicheng had to take advantage of the fact that the effects of the Soul Devouring Needle Technique had not worn off to get rid of the Tang Family's old man and Gu Xifu.
"Thank you, young friend Mo, for your guidance. I understand. Tonight, I will make a trip to the Zhou Family's Villa."
Gu Xicheng's eyes flashed as he squinted and said. That Gu Xifu had indeed colluded with the Zhou and Tang Clans. It was simply treacherous and a betrayal of the clan.
No matter how the two brothers fought, it was their own matter. Colluding with the Zhou and Tang Clans to attack the Gu Clan Fort would change the nature of the matter.
…
At night, Gu Xicheng went to the Zhou Family's Villa alone. No one in the Gu Clan Fort knew. However, the next day, the Zhou Family's Villa and the Tang Clan would definitely have huge changes. Everything was carried out quietly in the dark.
A story of the exchange between the hunted and the hunter was about to unfold. Meanwhile, the mastermind of this matter, Mo Wen, was currently strolling leisurely in a huge treasure trove.
The Gu Clan Fort was indeed an ancient clan with four to five hundred years of history. The cultural relics and antiques in the treasure trove were piled up together, dazzling one's eyes.
Mo Wen didn't pay attention to those things that were worth a thousand taels of gold in the market, but were actually meaningless to him. He walked directly to the shelf where the Ming Cult's relics were placed. It was said that these things were excavated from the ruins of the Ming Cult's sacred land, Bright Peak, by the ancestors of the Gu Clan. Many of the things were dilapidated and no longer had their former glory.
The Bright Peak was the sacred land of the Ming Cult. There were many treasures in it that were of great significance to the Ming Cult. Although the Ming Cult leader, Chang Qingfeng, had moved many of the Ming Cult's treasures into the historical abode, there were still many treasures that hadn't been moved in time. Some of them were even like the Sacred Flame Insignia, which were the Ming Cult's most valuable treasures.
Mo Wen didn't have much hope for the Ming Cult's relics in the Gu Clan Fort. He only had the mentality of taking a look and making this request to Gu Xicheng. After all, it had been a few hundred years. Even if there were treasures, they wouldn't be able to wait for him to retrieve them.
Moreover, when the Bright Peak was destroyed, the things in the sacred land had long been looted. The things that were preserved by the remaining members of the Ming Cult were most likely things that were not taken away because they were not valuable enough.
Mo Wen strolled around the treasure trove for half a day. Many of the Ming Cult's relics were artworks, such as murals, utensils, sculptures, swords, tokens, and other miscellaneous things. Moreover, almost all of them were dilapidated and incomplete.
The only thing that was worth looking at was a dilapidated treasure map and a few books of the Ming Cult's martial arts teachings.
The treasure map was only about a quarter of it. Mo Wen studied it for half a day but still couldn't make any headway. As for whether the treasure map hid the path to the Ming Cult's historical abode, he didn't know either.
If he couldn't gather all four pieces of the map, it was basically a useless piece of paper.
As for the Ming Cult's martial arts teachings, they were all dilapidated and incomplete, so he couldn't practice them at all. At most, he could only understand a little. Among them, there was a book on the Nine Yang Scripture. However, it was not the original version. It was just a description and understanding of the Nine Yang Scripture. He reckoned that it was a Ming Cult leader's experience in practicing the Nine Yang Divine Technique. No wonder Gu Jingman could tell that he was practicing the Nine Yang Divine Technique.
