713: Mastery of Power 713: Mastery of Power Gu Simu was confused.
Previously, Gu Lan had promised to take care of the matter, but now he was backing out.
Before she could express her thoughts, Gu Lan interrupted her with a calm expression.
“You are not his match.
Leave it to your father!”
With these words, Gu Lan unleashed his aura, taking a step forward.
The Hongng Sword materialized in his hand as he moved.
“Quite fast, huh?
Let’s see if you can keep up!”
Gu Lan spoke coldly, and his energy surged, sweeping across the sky as the Dao of the Five Elents enveloped the entire heavens.
The man before him froze for a mont, his face darkening.
His intuition told him not to engage with Gu Lan, or he might not survive.
He couldn’t even gauge Gu Lan’s strength, nor could he perceive Gu Lan’s aura properly.
Although his expression only subtly changed, Gu Lan could see through it.
Coldly observing him, Gu Lan raised his hand and struck.
A tearing sound rang out, and the sky itself trembled.
Sword light shot out in all directions, splitting the clouds into thousands of paths.
The man in front of him didn’t dare hesitate.
With lightning speed, he retreated.
Though he was fast, he still couldn’t dodge in ti.
A tearing noise erupted, and the surrounding space shattered.
He was sent flying hundreds of yards away.
Facing this power, he didn’t even have the strength to fight back, and his aura dissipated completely.
Gu Lan had used just one strike, but it contained hundreds of sword lights.
By the ti he regained his balance, the man’s face had turned pale with shock.
The expression in his eyes showed undeniable gravity.
He had never expected to be defeated by Gu Lan.
Gu Lan’s speed had been so fast that he couldn’t even track it.
Now, realizing the situation, the man didn’t dare linger any longer.
With a darkened face, he began to retreat quickly.
Although he was no match for Gu Lan, he could still escape.
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared without a trace, leaving no sign of his presence.
Seeing that the man had gone, Gu Lan sighed and didn’t speak any further.
He withdrew his aura.
Gu Simu, still puzzled, stepped forward and asked him, “Father, why didn’t you kill him?
He will definitely co back!”
“This person still has value.
He might be of help to you in the future,” Gu Lan replied.
These words left Gu Simu even more confused.
She had never t the man, so why was he involved with her?
Despite her confusion, she knew that Gu Lan wouldn’t joke about such matters.
After a calm glance, Gu Lan withdrew his aura completely.
Aside from them, Ding True Man had an even more serious expression, his face clouded with concern.
Earlier, he had considered intervening, but he hadn’t expected the man to be this powerful.
Thankfully, he hadn’t acted.
If he had, he might have already been defeated, and Gu Simu would have been suppressed by Gu Lan, but he himself might not have made it out.
The speed of that man’s punches had been so fast that even he, a Heaven-Fixing Realm expert, couldn’t detect them.
It was a terrifying realization.
After a long mont of contemplation, Ding True Man finally descended from the sky and disappeared from sight.
Though his expression was hidden, it couldn’t escape Gu Lan’s sharp gaze.
Gu Lan looked at him and asked, “What’s the matter?
Still puzzled?”
Ding True Man froze for a mont, but he didn’t hesitate to respond with a respectful nod.
“That man’s punch speed was extraordinary.
Even though I control the Dao of Space, I couldn’t track him.”
This was his greatest confusion.
After all, the Dao of Space could distort the surrounding space.
However, when that man struck, Ding True Man had felt that the space within a radius of five miles around him was beyond his control.
To enter it, he would have to break through a layer of domain.
Ding True Man looked grim as he spoke, unsure how to proceed.
Gu Lan’s face remained neutral as he replied, “His strength may not be greater than yours, but his mastery over power surpasses yours!”
Hearing this, Ding True Man froze, his face darkening with suspicion.
“How is that possible?
How could soone like him be superior to in terms of power mastery?”
Ding True Man was stunned.
Gu Lan, however, didn’t slow down as he continued, “I know you’re surprised, but the facts are as they are.
If you don’t believe , go and see for yourself.”
After saying this, Gu Lan didn’t speak further, leaving Ding True Man uncertain about how to proceed.
After a long period of contemplation, he finally decided to investigate.
With a respectful bow to Gu Lan, Ding True Man transford into a shadow and disappeared.
Seeing him vanish, Gu Lan allowed himself a faint smile.
He stepped forward, his true energy surging as he too disappeared from sight.
As soon as he returned to Lanyan Royal School, Gu Simu appeared before him, wearing a aningful smile.
Before Gu Lan could speak, Gu Simu greeted him with a bow.
“Greetings, Father!”
Her tone was respectful, but as she finished speaking, Gu Lan imdiately sensed sothing was wrong.
His face showed a hint of helplessness as he looked at her and said, “What are you up to this ti?”
His words hit the mark.
Gu Simu paused, and a sheepish smile appeared on her face.
“Recently, there’s been a lot of trouble at Lanyan Royal School, and it’s not conducive to my progress.
I want to go sowhere quieter.”
Gu Lan smiled faintly, but he didn’t stop her.
He knew very well that this wasn’t an idea that ca from Gu Simu herself.
It had to be Zhongren’s doing.
“Where do you want to go?” he asked.
Since she was leaving, he wanted to know where.
Gu Simu quickly responded, “I want to go to the Dark World.
I’ve heard it’s quite fun there!”
When Gu Simu ntioned this, Gu Lan smiled lightly, but his gaze was no longer on her.
Instead, it shifted toward the exterior of the Lanyan Royal School hall.
“You’ve been standing outside for so long and still haven’t co in.”
As his words fell, a shadow flashed from outside and entered.
The person who arrived was Zhongren, still wearing a faint smile.
He stepped forward and gave a deep bow to Gu Lan.
“Greetings, my Lord!”
“Your girl wouldn’t have gone there without reason.
You’re the one who encouraged her.
Tell , what do you want her to do there?” Gu Lan said, his tone sharp.
Such small sches couldn’t escape his attention.
He had sensed Zhongren’s intent.
Gu Simu quickly explained, her expression serious.
“My lord, it was indeed my idea, but it won’t harm her.
Only benefits!”
As she spoke, she imdiately used the Qin Dunjia technique.
The entire palace was filled with a golden light, and at the center of the Qin Dunjia, a beam of golden light erged.
“My lord, please look.
This is a good thing!”
