Splashing Dirty Water
Within the Gu family.
The large manor was filled with people. Many of them were holding knives, spears, and clubs in their hands, looking like they would pull out their weapons at any moment.
"Family heads, what are you all doing?"
The Gu family head frowned as he looked at the people in front of him. The new family head, Gu Tian, stood beside him. Behind them were some of the Gu family's clansmen and guests. However, due to the matter of the junior family head selection, the Gu family suffered a great loss …
At that moment, there were not many people who came out to face the enemy. It seemed like they were outnumbered.
"Gu Hai, us hidden families have always minded our own business. However, your family actually assassinated the elites of our clans … Shouldn't you give us an explanation?"
"Hehe, what's there to explain? I think that the Gu family has wild ambitions. They want to weaken our clans so that they can continue to be the leader! "
The various family heads all spoke up. At the same time, the beautiful woman standing at the very front spoke up.
"Family Head Gu, are they right?"
"Family Head Zhuge, it's easy to pin a crime on someone! All the clans know that our Gu family has been choosing a junior family head recently. How can they talk about assassinating the elites of the various clans! "
Gu Hai's eyebrows were tightly bunched together as he coldly laughed.
"I think … It's your clans that saw our Gu family's strength weakening, so you want to take the chance to eat us up! A skinny camel is still bigger than a horse. Aren't you afraid of eating too much? "
"Gu Hai, do you have any shame?" A middle-aged man with a scar on his face spoke up.
"Shangguan Xiong, don't think that I don't know that you've been eyeing our Gu family's position for a long time. Ever since your clans came here, you've always been the one to slander our Gu family. Hehe … If you want to say that our Gu family assassinated the elites of your clans, then show us the evidence! "
Gu Hai's face was filled with a cold smile. The other family heads were instantly stunned by his retort …
Evidence.
They really didn't have any.
However, it was also true that the elites of their clans were killed. They had investigated for a few days, and vaguely came to the conclusion that it was done by the Gu family.
The reason they came together this time was to force the Gu family to abdicate!
"If you want evidence, I have it!"
Suddenly, a playful laughter rang in everyone's ears.
"Who!?"
"Gu Li!" A skinny figure slowly walked into their line of sight. Gu Li smiled faintly as he swept his gaze across everyone's faces. "Gu Li, Gu Li!"
"How could it be you!"
Gu Tian and the members of the Gu Clan couldn't help but reveal looks of shock. That day …
They'd seen Gu Li's head cut off with their own eyes.
"Hehe, are you surprised to see me?" Gu Li smiled playfully. Then he bowed to the surrounding family heads and smiled. "Family heads, I am Gu Li of the former Ancient race. However, the Gu Clan was unfair in the selection of the Junior Clan Head, and they wanted to kill me … Unfortunately, I managed to escape death. "
"Gu Li!"
Gu Tian roared with a frown. Gu Li picked his ear mockingly, "Don't worry, Gu Tian.
"What are you shouting for? Are you trying to show off your loud voice? What, are you unhappy that you didn't kill me? What a good brother! "
"Brat, did you just say that you have evidence of the Gu family assassinating the elites of our clans?"
Shangguan Xiong frowned. Gu Li nodded with a faint smile,
Gu Li nodded with a smile, "I originally wanted to help the Gu family hide it, but since they were heartless towards me, then don't blame me for being unjust!"
With that, he took out a flash drive from his pocket, then took out a laptop from his backpack.
"Family heads, please take a look!"
The family heads received it hesitantly, then clicked on the video inside …
"Oh yeah, how's the thing I arranged for you going?"
"It's already in progress. We've already killed three clansmen of the hidden families. Their souls are in our hands right now … "
"Very good. Make sure to put the blame on my brothers. Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
One of the two people in the video did not enter the video, and the person's voice was edited. However, the other person was Hua Li, who was beside Gu Tian.
The video was very short. When it ended, all the family heads looked towards Hua Li fiercely.
"Everyone knows that Hua Li is the person that my Tian-ge trusts the most. Although the other person in the video did not show himself, I believe that all of you are smart people. I can reveal that this video was captured by the camera I installed on Gu Tian. As for why … I believe that all of you can understand my difficulties during the junior family head election a while ago, "the beautiful woman with the surname Zhuge also smiled.
The beautiful woman with the surname Zhuge also said with a faint smile, "Clan Leader Gu, it seems like everything has come to light!"
"Impossible, I've never schemed to assassinate the elites of the various clans," Gu Tian frowned.
"If it's not you, then the geezer beside you is definitely involved, right?" Shangguan Xiong sneered. Gu Tian immediately shook his head, "That's also impossible. Elder Hua is the person closest to me, he wouldn't betray me!"
Hearing that, Gu Hai's expression instantly changed. He had already decided to give up on Hua Li, but Gu Tian's reply clearly tied the two of them together.
The smile on Gu Li's face became even brighter …
My silly older brother, you truly are adorably silly.
"That's impossible, that's impossible … Young man, do you think we, the Patriarchs, are fools?" Shangguan Xiong snorted coldly, "Gu Hai, hand over this brat and the old man beside him to us. Then, we'll give you 50% of the Gu family's resources, and we'll forget about this!"
The surrounding patriarchs nodded. Gu Hai's aged face was burning with rage. He clenched his fists tightly and shouted angrily.
"Shangguan Xiong, you must be dreaming! Hmph, if you want to gnaw at our Gu family, we'll at least make you lose a few teeth! Aboriginals, prepare to meet the enemy! "
"Gu Hai, why are you doing this?!"
The Zhuge woman shook her head in disappointment. Soon after, she turned around and spoke to the people behind her.
"People of the Zhuge Clan, don't step forward. As long as the other party doesn't make a move on us, we'll just watch from the sidelines!"
"Zhuge Clan Leader …" Shangguan Xiong's expression changed. The woman smiled and replied, "Our Zhuge Clan didn't suffer any casualties. Before coming here, I didn't promise to help you deal with the Gu Clan. Sorry, our Zhuge Clan won't get involved in this mess."
"Many thanks, Zhuge Clan Leader!"
Gu Hai cupped his hands towards the woman, then a solemn expression appeared on his aged face.
A powerful spiritual energy pressure was suddenly released from his body!
"Come!"
"Zhuge Hong, alright …"
Shangguan Xiong suddenly took a step forward, and the pressure around him instantly resisted Gu Hai's …
"Attack!"
Following Shangguan Xiong's shout, the surrounding family members immediately charged towards the Gu Clan's people.
Just at that moment, a dazzling golden light descended like a meteor and landed in the middle of the crowd. At the same time, a cold shout sounded out from within the golden light.
