Chapter 229: Chapter 209 Lord Gu Qingfeng_3
Gu Qingfeng had slain Fu Zhao and Master Taixuan in the battle at Tianxiong Pass and then proceeded to eliminate the Spirit King, laying a victorious foundation for the Guangyang Army.
Then, when it ca to subduing the Spirit King Army, Gu Qingfeng barely intervened, directly returning to Gu Family Manor.
After all, Gu Qingfeng had already addressed the most substantial resistance in the battle; the remaining issues, he believed, could be resolved by Gu Yang’s capabilities.
However,
with millions in the Spirit King’s army, it was natural that not all would genuinely surrender.
Thus,
...
in the recent days according to the information panel, Gu Yang had been killing relentlessly; any who did not submit were almost invariably dood under his blade.
Gu Qingfeng had no objections to this thod.
Upon seeing the final text in the information panel, Gu Qingfeng realized that the millions of defeated troops brought by the Spirit King had been entirely controlled by Gu Yang.
“Having swallowed up the Spirit King’s millions-strong army, Yang’er now has at least doubled his power underneath him. Now with Fu Zhao gone, no Immortal Sect in the world would dare to make a move. Thus, the Nine States are likely to truly be under the na Gu!”
Even a man of Gu Qingfeng’s calm deanor couldn’t help but feel a bit stirred at this mont.
There was a ti
when Gu Qingfeng had never imagined the Gu Family possessing the qualification to govern the world.
But now, such a scenario seed inevitable, with the Guangyang Army bound to dominate the Nine States, simply a matter of ti.
Afterwards,
Gu Qingfeng continued his secluded cultivation.
The battle with Fu Zhao had revealed to him the capabilities of the Divinity Realm, but frankly, Gu Qingfeng was sowhat disappointed.
The Divinity Realm was indeed powerful, far surpassing a Martial Arts Grandmaster and even more formidable than the Evil Spirit at Blood Mountain Mansion had been.
However,
it was just that.
The anticipated thrilling battle did not truly unfold; when Gu Qingfeng got serious, a single strike had slain Fu Zhao on the spot.
But,
even so,
Gu Qingfeng was still keen on enhancing his own strength.
After all, beyond the heavens, there are more heavens; upon acquiring that drop of mysterious blood and the severed finger, Gu Qingfeng realized that the Nine States were too confined; perhaps beyond them lay a vaster world.
Whether the owner of the blood or the finger, their powers were far beyond a re Fu Zhao.
Relative to the power wielded by the Divinity Realm, it was nothing short of night and day.
Thus, even after slaying Fu Zhao, Gu Qingfeng harbored no pride or complacency.
—
While Gu Qingfeng was in seclusion,
the battle at Tianxiong Pass had spread like a hurricane throughout the Nine States.
Everyone who heard the news was profoundly shocked,
especially the major Immortal Sect families, who initially thought they had misheard upon first hearing it.
But after repeatedly confirming the news, understanding that Fu Zhao really had been killed by Gu Qingfeng at Tianxiong Pass, they could finally accept this incredible piece of news.
“Fu Zhao is dead!”
“A towering figure of the Divinity Realm, actually fallen to a re Martial Artist!”
At the Ji Family of Xianzhou, the current Family Head, Ji Liuyun, upon hearing this news, also dramatically changed his usually composed deanor.
The existence of the Divinity Realm was sothing Ji Liuyun was overly familiar with;
back in the day, the Ji Family had once produced a powerhouse of the Divinity Realm.
Although that old ancestor of Divinity Realm had long passed away, his legacy still left a power that was far from what the Transformation Realm could match.
Even the so-called half-step to the Divinity Realm was insignificant before the real Divinity Realm.
But,
exactly because he understood the strength of the Divinity Realm,
Ji Liuyun knew what it ant for Gu Qingfeng to be able to slay Fu Zhao.
At that ti,
the other Ji Family elders also looked troubled.
“Now that the news of Fu Zhao’s death has spread throughout the world, sir Family Head, how should we act now?”
asked a Ji Family elder solemnly.
If it was the ergence of a Divinity Realm powerhouse from the Taisu Sect, the Ji Family could still accept it, but the news from Tianxiong Pass caught the Ji Family completely unprepared.
The reason was simple.
It was because Gu Qingfeng wasn’t a Magician, but a Martial Artist.
This wasn’t just about who held sway over the Nine States; it was an issue of the status hierarchy between Magicians and Martial Artists.
Furthermore, considering Gu Qingfeng’s actions in Guangyang and then, Gu Yang’s governance in Qingyun, their policies had been extrely unfriendly to Magicians.
If Magicians were still considered supre, it might have been fine.
But now, with a Martial Artist erging as a supre powerhouse, the significance differed.
More importantly,
Gu Qingfeng’s slaying of Fu Zhao implied that even if another Divinity Realm powerhouse erged from their Ji Family, it might not be a match for him.
Ji Liuyun’s expression changed, and after a long pause, he finally exhaled deeply.
“Ever since the Martial Ancestor passed away, the world’s Martial Artists have been weak for ages; now the ergence of Gu Qingfeng might just be the Heavenly Dao’s cycle.
Now with Fu Zhao fallen, and the Master Taixuan fallen at Qingyun, the world’s great power has completely fallen into Gu Yang’s hands.
Even if our Ji Family were to give their all against him, it would simply be throwing an egg against a rock!”
Ji Liuyun said these words with great reluctance, but there was nothing he could do.
The fact was just so.
When the news of the battle at Tianxiong Pass was released, Ji Liuyun understood that the Ji Family’s significance had ended.
Not just the Ji Family.
But all the world’s Magicians were likewise.
At this ti.
not to ntion one Ji Family, even ten Ji Families, if they were to confront Gu Qingfeng as enemies, would likely be obliterated in an instant, turned to ashes.
