C22 Concealed Conspiracy
Gu Yuan suddenly remembered that the mysterious person's outfit from his memory was exactly the same as the outfit of Cui Ruo who died in his hands!
Could it be!
Gu Yuan's brows suddenly furrowed deeply, as he walked towards Wang Family.
He wanted to see if his guess was right, and what kind of scheme did Wang Family have with Gu Wu!
Back then, why did it involve him!?
In front of the Wang Family Great House, two guards stood upright at the door.
Gu Yuan quickly arrived there. He looked at the signboard above the door that had the words Wang Family Big House written in large letters. His eyes were filled with coldness.
As Gu Yuan got closer, he finally attracted the attention of the guards at the entrance.
"This is the Wang Family Big House, who are you."
Gu Yuan suddenly smiled as he glanced at the two guards who stopped him.
"The Wang Family is so impressive, to actually use it to look at the gate at the early Houtian realm."
Not good!
Hearing Gu Yuan's words, the two guards' expressions changed drastically and they hurriedly tried to retreat.
Unfortunately, Gu Yuan's movements were even faster, and directly sent the two flying with two punches, rolling onto the ground in the courtyard of Wang Family.
"Who dares to cause trouble at my Wang Family!"
With an explosive shout, a muscular man nearly two meters tall suddenly appeared in front of the door.
"Name: Wang Meng"
Cultivation: Early Period of Innate Stage
Identity: Wang Family Patriarch's younger brother. "
Gu Yuan touched his chin. He didn't know if it was an illusion or not, but he felt that after advancing to the Upper Sky Realm, the function of this investigation seemed to be more detailed than before.
Seeing the two guards lying motionlessly on the ground, Wang Meng's expression darkened as he looked at Gu Yuan.
"Kid, if you don't give this daddy a reasonable explanation today, don't even think about leaving here alive."
Seeing that Wang Meng actually dared to threaten him, the murderous Gu Yuan immediately asked: "You mean, you want to kill me?"
"So what if I kill you!"
"Hmph, you're courting death!"
Gu Yuan let out a cold humph, then fiercely threw out a punch.
"Brat, you're courting death!" Seeing that the opponent actually dared to make the first move, Wang Meng was instantly enraged. He also sent a punch towards the opponent without showing any signs of weakness.
In his view, with Early Period of Innate Stage's strength, he would absolutely crush this seemingly teenage brat. Moreover, with his unrestrained martial arts, even if it was a martial artist with the same strength as him, they would not dare to go head to head against him unarmed. His opponent would lose for sure.
In the next second, an unexpected scene occurred. Gu Yuan's white and slender arms collided with Wang Meng's thick and strong arms. After a muffled sound, the two of them actually both retreated.
The only difference was that Wang Meng's face was full of shock, while Gu Yuan shook his arm with a regretful look on his face.
"Sure enough, the same strength still requires the Fangtian Halberd and the King's skill. Otherwise, even if the system were to improve in all aspects, it can only be used in a tie with warriors of the same strength in a certain aspect. If I want to defeat the other party, I'll have to go through a lot of trouble."
He wondered what Gu Yuan's thoughts would be if Wang Meng, who was facing him, heard them.
Being able to master the path of martial arts was already difficult, but it was already difficult for people to do so. For example, mastering the power of Qing Gong was not an option, and Wang Meng was not flexible enough to train his body like that. Who would be like Gu Yuan who only needed enough experience to be able to level up.
Even so, he was still not satisfied.
"Kid, just who are you!"
Wang Meng's heart was filled with shock. He never thought that after going out to gain experience for a few years, he would be called back by his elder brother, the Patriarch. Such a talented person had appeared in such a small place like Qiuyun City.
How old is this kid? No matter how he looked at it, he didn't seem to be twenty years old. Yet, they had reached a draw in a duel...
Wang Meng, who thought he had some experience, was in a state of disarray. He felt that his view of the world was a bit out of place.
Since he wasn't in the mood to waste words with Wang Meng, Gu Yuan directly asked, "Is Gu Wu with you?"
Wang Meng was surprised for a moment and subconsciously asked, "Who?"
Seeing Wang Meng's silly look, Gu Yuan completely lost his patience. Fangtian Halberd appeared in his hand and he threw it directly at Wang Meng.
Seeing the incoming weapon, Wang Meng's expression changed and he quickly dodged.
Unfortunately, his movements were fast. Gu Yuan was even faster, so he turned around and struck Wang Meng's back with his halberd.
The huge inertia caused Wang Meng's tall and big body to directly fly out and heavily smash on the wall not far away.
It had to be said that Wang Meng's kung fu was exceptional. After receiving such a heavy blow from Gu Yuan, he did not even spit out blood. However, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Ignoring Wang Meng who was on the ground, Gu Yuan directly walked inside the Wang Family.
Many of the servants in the Wang Family had seen Gu Yuan before. Therefore, when Gu Yuan charged into the Wang Family, the news of Wang Meng being heavily injured had spread to the ears of the Patriarch of the Wang Family, Wang Shi.
At this moment, in Wang Shi's room, Wang Shi and a man in a black robe were discussing something at a table nearby. On the bed not far away, Gu Wu was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed for treatment.
The door was suddenly opened, startling the three people inside the room.
As the servant reported and looked at the servant's frightened face, Wang Shi's face was full of uncertainty. Gu Wu, who was originally recuperating with his eyes closed, was so frightened that he stood up and muttered nonstop.
"He actually did not die!" He actually caught up to me, what should I do!? "
Who would have thought that the usually calm and ruthless Gu Wu would be frightened by Gu Yuan to such an extent.
Ignoring Gu Wu, who had lost his wits, Wang Shi raised his head and looked at the man in black robes.
After a period of stifling silence, the man in black finally spoke in a hoarse voice.
"The plan cannot be changed, we must fight to the death!"
"But …" Hearing the black robed man's words, Wang Shi wanted to retort, but he was interrupted by the black robed man.
"There are no buts. Since this kid is able to chase us here, I think that Deacon Cui Ruo is doomed. If our plan is not carried out smoothly, the outcome will be even worse than death!"
Hearing the black robed man's words, Wang Shi's face instantly turned pale. Even Gu Wu, who was not far away from them became silent.
Seeing the two men's ashen faces, the man in black said, "There's no need to think about it. There has been no room for regret since the day you agreed to join us. Moreover, as long as the plan succeeds, we will fulfill all your conditions."
In order to rekindle their fighting spirit, the black cloaked man added, "Furthermore, we are not in an inevitable losing situation. Don't forget that the City Lord will come to help us."
Hearing this, Wang Shi's and Gu Wu's eyes lit up, and their faces were once again burning with hope.1
Wang Shi said, "Yes, and also the City Lord. I will send someone to inform him to come quickly and support us."
