These people of the royal family really don’t blink an eye when killing!

Zhang Ping, seated at this checkpoint and admittedly a bigwig in his own right, simply killed without the slightest hesitation.

Zhang Ping’s body looked about to collapse, but he burst forth with a powerful Qi Force at the last moment, forcibly reversing his fall, and dashed to the feet of Elder Xie, wrapping his arms around his legs, “Young Master… run fast… I’ll hold him back…”

Blood spilt from Zhang Ping’s mouth as he spoke, his eyes filled with regret and despair.

Had he known this would be the outcome, he wouldn’t have agreed to the royal family’s terms.

They had clearly promised to let Gu Changsheng leave and not touch the Gu Family members, but in the end, they acted like this.

Fortunately, he had already given the antidote to Gu Changsheng!

The Teleportation Array Gu Changsheng himself arranged, with just a stroke of a pen, could facilitate his escape from here.

“Humph! Already dying and still playing the loyal dog?” Elder Xie looked disdainfully at Zhang Ping beneath his feet, speaking indifferently, “If you insist on being a dog, then do not act like a house slave to three different masters. Let go!”

Boom!

Elder Xie’s punch landed on Zhang Ping’s arm, instantly shattering one of them.

“Ah ah ah!” Even though he was nearing death, Zhang Ping still felt the pain, letting out a string of anguished howls.

But at this moment, Zhang Ping knew there were no reinforcements near the Young Master, and if he didn’t buy time for the Young Master, Gu Changsheng would truly be unable to escape.

So even though one of his arms had been smashed, Zhang Ping’s other arm didn’t give up and once again tightly gripped Elder Xie’s legs, “Ugh ugh…”

Because of the excessive blood in his mouth, Zhang Ping couldn’t speak properly at this point, but his gaze remained resolutely fixed on Gu Changsheng, the meaning clear—still urging Gu Changsheng to flee.

From a distance, Gu Changsheng, witnessing this scene, felt driven to the brink of madness!

And was equally shocked!

Gu Changsheng had just breathed a sigh of relief, thinking the royal family wouldn’t take action, but surprisingly they did, and they even intended to annihilate him as well.

Wasn’t this tactic a bit too ruthless?

In fact, after taking the antidote, the dizzying effect had been neutralized.

Moreover, taking advantage of this moment, Gu Changsheng had drawn the formations necessary for escape, defense formation… all had been prepared!

But although Gu Changsheng felt stifled, he refrained from any rash actions.

Gu Changsheng was waiting for the right moment, ensuring there were no other royal family experts nearby, so he could determine the safest direction to flee.

“Dammit! This is the death you sought, so let yourself be reduced to ashes and smoke!”

A trace of coldness flitted across Elder Xie’s eyes as he unleashed the full might of his Martial Emperor Realm strength, exploding with a tsunami’s force of ferocity, rolling towards Zhang Ping’s body.

Crack! Crack!

With the crisp sound of bones shattering, Zhang Ping’s body was instantaneously crushed to dust, dissipating into the air.

“`

As for Zhang Ping’s strength, it couldn’t even break through Elder Xie’s Gang Qi, let alone harm Elder Xie.

“Hmph, Zhang Ping, you’re too naïve… Today we dared to make a move here because we were fully prepared! Do you think anyone here will be left alive?” Elder Xie’s eyes flashed with a sinister gleam as he walked towards Gu Changsheng, continuing to speak, “Originally, the Emperor intended to spare your and your father’s lives, but alas, the infiltration plan in the Red Tiger Domain is not going smoothly, so, sorry!”

“Gu Changsheng, speak up! If you have any last wishes, tell me, and if I can do it, I will certainly fulfill it… For instance, if you have a favorite girl, if there are any children left to fend for themselves, the royal family will surely take good care of them!”

Elder Xie stared intensely at Gu Changsheng, trying to look as gentle as possible, but his words could not hide the malice within!

Help Gu Changsheng look after a possible illegitimate child?

What a joke, it was clear Elder Xie intended to eradicate Gu Changsheng’s line completely, leaving nothing behind.

Once Gu Changsheng and any potential offspring were dead, what remained would be a toothless tiger like Gu Tang, wounded and left only to await his end, devoid of all hope. Then, it wouldn’t be within the Red Tiger Domain to decide whether to kill or spare him; the initiative would return to the royal family.

Gu Changsheng glared coldly at Elder Xie, “Bastard! I’ll remember you… I’ll definitely make you regret today’s decision…”

Gu Changsheng surveyed his surroundings once more!

The royal family indeed spared no expense this time. To deal with Gu Changsheng, they even deployed ten Martial Emperor Strong, ambushing him to ensure he wouldn’t survive a second attack.

“Haha, Young Master Gu, you are bound to die today, why bother with futile words? You are, after all, the great young master of the Gu Family, let’s give you a dignified death. Just kill yourself… I will make sure your body remains intact and personally deliver it to your father!”

Clang!

As Elder Xie spoke, he tossed a battle saber in front of Gu Changsheng, “Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance. Once this opportunity passes, you won’t have another chance to kill yourself!”

Elder Xie continued speaking smugly, “I will tell your father that Young Master Gu encountered horse bandits on his way back to the Red Tiger Domain base, that you bravely fought back but were ultimately killed. We arrived later and killed all the horse bandits… We deeply regret this! To show the royal family’s remorse, they will send a strong emissary to the Red Tiger Domain to investigate the truth and eradicate the horse bandits…”

“Or perhaps, Zhang Ping’s rebellion and attack on Young Master Gu could also work as an excuse, what do you think of that?”

Elder Xie was outright despicable, boasting in front of Gu Changsheng, “The feeling of slaying a prodigy is indeed extraordinary, I love this sensation!”

The reasons Elder Xie provided were absurd, even on brief consideration.

But sometimes, the truth simply doesn’t matter. If the royal family is willing to give an explanation, what can Gu Tang do even if he knows the whole truth?

Gu Changsheng’s death would make all arguments meaningless!

“Think you’re fucking smart, do you!”

At this moment, Gu Changsheng decided he would no longer hold back. As he cursed out loud, his Martial Emperor Level aura erupted with full force. The battle saber on the ground was suddenly swept up by his Qi Force, howling toward Elder Xie’s chest.

Buzzing!

Gu Changsheng, also a Martial Emperor Strong, had his strength skyrocket once again after being advised by Ye Fan.

The sudden strike of the saber caught Elder Xie off-guard; he felt a strong sense of danger, “Fuck! You weren’t drugged and subdued?”

While exclaiming in surprise, Elder Xie channeled his Martial Arts Qi to its peak and hastily retreated.

Although Elder Xie was arrogant, his strength was only at the Martial Emperor Level and he dared not face the saber launched by Gu Changsheng head-on. After narrowly dodging the saber strike, he broke out in a sweat!

It seemed that the people of the Gu Family were not so easy to provoke.

However, just as Elder Xie took a sigh of relief, he failed to notice that, right behind him, the saber that had just vanished reappeared out of the void, suddenly positioned at his heart…
