The matter of Gu Family Manor was just a small interlude.
The issues there were resolved, and the subsequent progress was extrely fast.
In less than ten days' ti.
Gu Family Manor had been completely constructed.
The next day.
Gu Qingfeng packed up the family and moved out of White Stone City to settle in the newly built Gu Family Manor.
For this occasion.
Gu Qingfeng also specially held a grand banquet, inviting various forces to co.
After all, the Gu Family was now recognized by White Stone Dao as the number one power, even in the whole Guangyang Prefecture, they were famously so.
Any forces that received the news-who would dare not to give the Gu Family so respect? After three days of festivities.
Gu Family Manor regained its tranquility.
And then.
Gu Qingfeng began to reform the Gu Family Manor with great vigor.
First.
Gu Qingfeng established both an Inner Hall and an Outer Hall.
The Inner Hall was for the future direct lineage of the Gu Family and those disciples who were granted the Gu surna they alone could enter the Inner Hall.
As for the Outer Hall, it was for all the original guards and subsequent other non-direct descendants and disciples not given the Gu surna.
After that.
Gu Yang beca the Master of the Inner Hall.
ng Peng, in turn, beca the Master of the Outer Hall.
And then.
Gu Qingfeng also established a Law Enforcent Hall to oversee the entire Gu Family Manor.
Therefore.
The role of Master of the Law Enforcent Hall was also held by Gu Yang.
After all-
The Gu Family was short on people.
Plus, with such an important position as the Law Enforcent Hall, Gu Qingfeng naturally could not entrust it to an outsider.
Thus.
The Gu Family was renad to Gu Family Manor, and Gu Qingfeng changed his own title from Family Head to manor master.
It wasn't until this mont.
That the Gu Family truly beca a power in the Martial World.
"The Gu Family, for now, will have the Inner, Outer, and Law Enforcent Halls, with the current focus on developing the Outer Hall. Among those in the Outer Hall, if there are those with decent talent and sufficient loyalty, they may be offered the Gu surna and admitted into the Inner Hall."
Inside the main hall of Gu Family Manor, Gu Qingfeng said this as his gaze fell on ng Peng.
"ng Peng, you have followed for almost ten years, and I have seen your loyalty throughout these years."
"Therefore, today I have decided to grant you the Gu surna. Are you willing?"
Upon hearing this.
ng Peng was imdiately overjoyed, and without a second thought, he stood up and bowed deeply to Gu Qingfeng.
"Thank you, manor master, for granting the surna. I am willing to lay down my life for the Gu Family Manor, even unto death!"
Being granted the Gu surna!
ant that he could beco a true mber of the Gu Family, with a status naturally incomparable to those without the surna.
ng Peng... no, he should now be called Gu Peng.
The latter was naturally filled with joy.
Gu Qingfeng said, "The importance of the Outer Hall goes without saying. Next, I will grant six mid-tier Martial Arts to the Outer Hall as the foundation. For the many guards who have joined the Outer Hall, you can also carry out a strict assessnt.
Remove all spies belonging to various powers and those with ulterior motives.
Additionally, recruit so orphans from all around, or so children with good genetic potential, as targets for focused training."
"The only issue with Gu Family Manor right now is that its foundation and heritage are too poor."
"If we can recuperate and multiply for twenty years, we will certainly not be weaker than the other powers in Guangyang Prefecture!"
This was a point.
Gu Qingfeng had absolute confidence.
Upon hearing this, Gu Peng naturally accepted the command.
Afterwards,
Gu Qingfeng looked at Gu Yang and said, "The Inner Hall currently doesn't have much work to
be done, so you will follow Gu Peng and learn from him, and at the sa ti, the Law
Enforcent Hall needs to be expanded.
As for the manor's rules, you will be in charge of setting them."
"I understand, Father!"
Gu Yang also nodded his head.
Gu Qingfeng gave a few more simple instructions and then let the two of them leave.
He had given all the necessary instructions; now he needed ample ti for the Gu Family
Manor to grow.
Demon Suppression Prison.
This was a place specially constructed by Gu Qingfeng, with the entrance hidden within the backyard where he normally practiced.
The entrance was particularly secretive, with rockery chanisms in place.
At the sa ti,
The entire Demon Suppression Prison was forged from fine iron.
To ensure the secrecy of the Demon Suppression Prison, Gu Qingfeng had craftsn build the parts, and then he himself ticulously assembled the entire prison, creating a massive jail. This prison was not intended to hold anything else but to suppress Evil Spirits.
Due to its fine iron construction, the Demon Suppression Prison was extrely sturdy, such that even a Martial Artist of the Bone Refining Realm exerting full force might not break it.
In order to construct this prison, Gu Qingfeng had spent a full two hundred and fifty thousand
taels of silver.
But it was necessary.
Evil Spirits were of grave concern.
Naturally, Gu Qingfeng would not be careless.
Stepping into the Demon Suppression Prison,
One could see that it was lined with Luminous Pearls on both sides for illumination.
Inside the prison were three Golden Coffins.
One of the Golden Coffins was slightly larger, while the other two were one size smaller.
Inside the larger coffin, shockingly, was the sealed Shadow Demon; the two smaller coffins were temporarily forged by Gu Qingfeng for unforeseen needs in the future. After all, gold was necessary for suppressing Evil Spirits. If an Evil Spirit were to appear, it would be too late to forge sothing to suppress it on short notice.
Therefore,
It was best to forge them in advance, as they might be needed any day.
Gu Qingfeng walked up to the Golden Coffin that sealed the Shadow Demon. At that mont,
the coffin trembled slightly, as if sothing within was fiercely trying to break out, but due to
the chains holding it fixed, it wasn't truly shaken.
"What exactly is an Evil Spirit, and can it truly not be killed?"
Gu Qingfeng murmured to himself.
The immortality of Evil Spirits.
That was a legend that had existed since ancient tis.
Both the Spirit Summoning Treasure Skills and the Longevity Dao Scripture recorded that Evil
Spirits could not be killed, only sealed using special thods.
But at the sa ti,
The Spirit Summoning Treasure Skills held another record.
Evil Spirits were not immortal; only an Evil Spirit could kill another Evil Spirit.
Therefore,
So later tried to perform Evil Refining into the body, attempting to gain the power of Evil
Spirits in order to achieve the purpose of killing them.
But unfortunately, Becoming a Magician through Evil Refining did indeed give people great power, but sadly,
this power still could not kill an Evil Spirit.
It seed that after Refining Evil into the body, the power of the Evil Spirit was not pure enough. Only a truly liberated Evil Spirit that had recovered from suppression could kill
another of its kind.
So,
This was sowhat contradictory.
"Evil Spirits are not immortal... Strictly speaking, it's not that they are truly immortal; it's
just that Evil Spirits can only be killed by other Evil Spirits. Nothing else has the potential to
kill an Evil Spirit!"
"But in this world, how can there truly be sothing that cannot be killed? Since an Evil Spirit can kill another Evil Spirit, there must be a reason for it."
"If the key to this can be found, perhaps the legend of the invincibility of Evil Spirits will be
completely debunked-"
Gu Qingfeng's eyes flickered, and as all the information about Evil Spirits passed through his mind, he already had so ideas.
