Nangong Clan.
The messenger sent by Nangong Haotian quickly came back from Gu Chi Manor. However, he came back lying on the ground. His limbs were broken and he was moaning on the ground.
The elders of the Nangong Clan looked terrible. The young disciples were furious. No matter how powerful Gu Chi Manor was, they couldn't be this lawless, could they?
How could they be so cruel to the messenger?
Nangong Muzhu frowned slightly. A deputy of the Qian Hu and a few Baihu behind him also had a dark look on their faces. It was fine if the Gu Chi Manor didn't respect the Nangong Family of Sishui Prefecture, but they didn't even respect Nangong Muzhu?
"Family head, Qianhu Nangong, the moment Gu Tianya's wife found out about this lowly one's intentions, she ordered people to break this lowly one's arms and legs. She then stuffed something into this lowly one's body, saying that she wanted to show it to Qianhu Nangong."
The middle-aged man who had his limbs broken said with a pale face.
Nangong Haotian bent down and took out a token from the middle-aged man's belt. The token was pitch black and had the word "Yun" written on it. Nangong Haotian's eyes flashed with a trace of doubt as he handed the token to Nangong Muting, "Cousin, take a look at this token.
Nangong Mu Chu took the token and looked at it. She lowered her head and asked the middle-aged man, "Did Gu Tian Ya's wife say anything else besides giving you this token?"
The middle-aged man was slightly startled. He tried hard to recall and said, "She didn't say much, but from her words, she looked down on our Nangong family and …" "What is it?
Nangong Mu Chu frowned.
"And the Six Doors of Constables …" The middle-aged man whispered.
"How dare you!"
Nangong Mu Chu's subordinates scolded.
"Shut up."
Nangong Mu Chu humphed.
When her subordinates heard this, their faces were filled with astonishment.
"This token is from Cloud Rise Academy."
Nangong Mu Chu looked at the token in her hand and frowned, "I didn't expect Gu Tian Ya to be related to Cloud Rise Academy."
Cloud Rise Academy?
Hearing this, everyone's faces revealed a hint of surprise.
They finally understood why Gu Tian Ya's wife was so domineering and didn't even respect Nangong Mu Chu. She was related to Cloud Rise Academy! Gu Tianya was probably from Cloud Rising Academy! "Let's put the matter of Ancient Pool Manor aside for now. Bring him down to treat his injuries."
Nangong Mu put away the token, looked at the middle-aged man, and left the hall with his subordinates.
"Husband, if she does this, will Gu Chi Manor bear a grudge against us?
Our Si Shui Nangong cannot compare to the main family in the capital, if Gu Chi Manor really has such a strong backing, this time … "Madam Nangong's face revealed a worried expression.
"It shouldn't be a big deal. Madam, you don't have to worry anymore. You've been worrying too much for Ling 'er. Rest well for a few days. You don't want to wait for Ling' er to come back and see you so haggard, right?"
Nangong Haotian consoled.
Madam Nangong slightly nodded, but the worry in her eyes still lingered.
Late at night, Ancient Pond Manor.
As the residence of the strongest expert in Si Shui Prefecture, Ancient Pond Manor was located in the most beautiful location of Si Shui Prefecture, on an island in the middle of a lake. This island had a formation that prohibited flying. Whether it was leaving Ancient Pond Manor or going to Ancient Pond Manor, one had to take a wooden boat.
At night, there would be experts patrolling the Ancient Pond Manor. These experts all carried strong bows. As long as there was an enemy invasion, they would definitely not be courteous.
It could be said that Ancient Pond Manor was an iron wall with several lines of defense! In the manor, the lights were brightly lit. Gu Tianya's sons, grandchildren, and granddaughters were all gathered in the hall. Their faces were very ugly, but they didn't say anything. Instead, they quietly waited for an old woman sitting in the main seat to speak.
"Six Fan Constable Gate has confirmed that Master is dead. His corpse is in Nangong Mu Chu's hands. I believe that she will send Master's corpse to us tomorrow after seeing the token today."
The old woman said slowly.
As soon as she said this, the dozens of direct descendants of Gu Tianya were shocked, followed by sadness, anger, and disbelief.
"Mother, how exactly did Father die?"
A brawny man who looked 70 to 80% similar to Gu Tianya and was about 50 years old said with a pale face.
"Your father went with Ouyang De to capture Chen 'er's murderer, but he encountered a strong enemy in the Thousand Demon Mountain Range and was killed."
The old woman said with a cold face.
When everyone heard this, they looked at the brawny man. Most of their eyes were filled with blame because the Gu Family's descendant that Zhantai Qingyin killed was this brawny man's son! The old woman was Gu Tianya's wife. She was 70 to 80 years old this year. Although her cultivation was not as high as Gu Tianya's, she was also an expert in the 10th level of the Qi Refinement Stage.
And the brawny man was the old woman's eldest son, Gu Yifeng.
Gu Yifeng ignored those blaming eyes and said in a low voice, "Mother, Chen 'er was killed by the little demon girl, and Father died in the Thousand Demon Mountain Range. Is it the Heaven Chord Sect that is targeting us?"
"We don't know about this for now. Nangong Muxue has already coveted the Crescent Hand. I believe the other forces will also come after hearing the news of your father's death. Back then, your father relied on the power of the Crescent Hand to fight against three people of the same level, which was already coveted.
Next, I want you to send all the virgins that you captured during this period of time to Cloud Rise Academy and hand them over to Elder Ming. I hope that the old man can come out and intimidate everyone because of the Gu Family's service for all these years. "
The old woman said in a low voice.
"I will take care of this matter personally."
Gu Yifeng nodded.
At this time, Gu Yifeng's other brothers looked at each other, and one of them said, "Mother, in our Gu Chi Manor, only Father and Chen 'er practiced the Crescent Hand. This time, Chen' er and Father are both dead. Can you pass the Crescent Hand to us so that we can deal with the strong enemies that might come in the future?"
The old woman glanced at them coldly, "Elder Ming has the final say on who can practice the Crescent Hand. If you practice it without permission and Elder Ming finds out, even if your father is still alive, you won't be able to escape death."
Hearing this, everyone's heart suddenly jumped a few times, and they all shut their mouths. They didn't dare to covet the Crescent Hand anymore. They knew how powerful Cloud Rise Academy was. Even the current Crown Prince of Tian Luo Dynasty, who came from Black Jade Academy, had to bow his head to Cloud Rise Academy. Cloud Rise Academy was much more powerful than Tian Luo Dynasty! "Yifeng, this matter should not be delayed. I want you to send people to Cloud Rise Academy tonight."
The old woman said lightly.
"Yes!"
Gu Yifeng nodded with a solemn expression and turned to leave. He also knew that this time, with Gu Tianya's death, there would definitely be enemies and those who coveted the Crescent Hand, such as the top ten experts of Si Shui Prefecture. If he didn't ask Elder Ming to come out soon, the Gu Chi Manor would probably be destroyed!
