Chapter 28: Gu Yuan confronts the Soul Clan
🕑 Added 2023-05-05 16:03:40 +0000 UTC"Gu Xiu, what are you talking about?"
Gu Ling was already unhappy and a little angry, and when he heard Gu Xiu's words, his expression became even uglier.
Gu Xiu looked at Gu Ling and said, "What, are you getting old and your ears aren't working? Do you need me to repeat it?"
"Gu Xiu, do you just want to fight?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Ling immediately became displeased, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to fight Gu Xiu.
Gu Xiu looked at Gu Ling indifferently and said, "You? You're not even close."
"If you want to fight, I'm ready anytime."
After speaking, Gu Xiu left like an immortal in exile.
"This..."
Gu Ling looked at Gu Xiu's departing figure, his face turning red. The clan leader bullied him, and now even Gu Xiu was bullying him.
What kind of situation was this?
Gu Dao patted Gu Ling's shoulder and said, "Alright, Gu Ling, the key now is to find Xun’er."
As he spoke, Gu Dao also left.
Only Gu Ling was left standing there, and the other elders who wanted to come up and greet him were all driven away by Gu Ling's "get lost" command.
Gu Ling looked in the direction Gu Xiu had left and said, "Good job, Gu Xiu. After we find Xun’er, I'll definitely make you regret it."
After speaking, Gu Ling also left.
...
In the following days, the powerful members of the Gu clan, who were originally a hidden family, searched the continent frequently.
It seemed that they were looking for something.
This matter also alarmed many top forces on the continent. After all, they knew a thing or two about the strength of the Gu clan.
Even the other six ancient races received the news that the Gu clan seemed to have lost something and was desperately searching for it.
As for what they lost?
No one knew.
The Gu clan was also very tight-lipped about it and didn't reveal anything.
Six months passed.
The Gu clan mobilized all its forces and searched the entire continent for half a year.
The powerful members of the Gu clan also visited many top forces.
Unfortunately!
Still no news about Gu Xun’er. It seems like Gu Xun’er has truly vanished from the mortal world.
If not for the fact that her nameplate still glows, many elders of the Gu clan would have assumed that she had fallen.
...
Inside the magnificent hall. Many elders of the Gu clan gather here, with a grave expression on each of their faces.
Because...
Almost all members of the Gu clan have been mobilized to search for her for half a year across the entire continent.
Half a year.
They have not received any news about Gu Xun’er at all.
The atmosphere in the hall is particularly heavy. No one dares to speak.
At this time, Gu Ling stood up and said, "Clan Leader, in the past six months, we have visited almost all of the top powers on the continent and searched the entire continent. We have not received any news about Xun’er. I suspect that the person who abducted Xun’er may be one of the other six ancient clans."
As Gu Ling's words fell, many elders in the hall nodded in agreement.
The entire continent has almost been searched by the Gu clan, leaving only the possibility of space and the other six ancient clans to hide from them.
Actually, many elders present have had this kind of speculation, but no one dares to say it out loud.
The other six ancient clans are not small clans.
They are bloodline families with the same Dou Di bloodline as the Gu clan.
Even the weakest Ling and Shi clans are not to be underestimated.
Only senior elders like Gu Ling dare to speak, while others do not.
Gu Yuan also nodded slightly. He had suspected that it was one of the other six ancient clans who abducted Gu Xun’er, but there was no evidence.
There was no conclusive evidence pointing to any one clan. If there was the most suspicion, it would be the Soul clan followed by the Flame and Thunder clans.
Then the Medicine and Spirit clans.
But there was no evidence.
Even though the Gu clan is indeed powerful and is known as the leader of the ancient races, they cannot act recklessly.
Even if there is also a difference in strength among the ancient races. But how strong can the strongest be? How weak can the weakest be?
After all, they all have the bloodline of the Dou Di, and any clan is not easy to provoke.
Especially the Soul clan. The once prominent Xiao clan among the ancient races was destroyed by the Soul clan.
Among the ancient races, the Gu Clan is now recognized as the strongest.
The Soul Clan, on the other hand, is the most mysterious, with a profound heritage that is no weaker than that of the Gu Clan.
...
Looking at Elder Gu Ling, Gu Yuan asked calmly, "Elder Gu Ling, in your opinion, which clan is most likely to have kidnapped Xun’er?"
Without any hesitation, Gu Ling replied, "The Soul Clan is the most likely to have kidnapped Xun’er. The ambitions of those bastards from the Soul Clan are known throughout the continent. You can see what the Soul Palace has done on the Dou Qi continent in recent years."
"Of course!"
Gu Ling continued, "The Soul Clan is the most likely suspect, but the other ancient races, such as the Flame and Thunder Clans, are also possible. After all, although the ancient races appear to be peaceful with the existence of alliances, nobody is truly good behind closed doors."
"Right!"
Gu Yuan nodded his head.
His gaze fell on the three Supreme elders of the Gu Clan, and he said calmly, "The other Elders can leave. Elder Gu Ling, Elder Gu Xiu, and Elder Gu Dao, please stay."
"Yes!"
The other Elders left, leaving only the three supreme Elders of the Gu Clan.
Without any nonsense, Gu Yuan said, "Elder Gu Xiu, please visit the Flame Clan. Elder Gu Ling, you will visit the Thunder Clan. Elder Gu Dao, you will visit the Medicine Clan. As for me, I will personally visit the Soul Clan."
"Understood!"
The three Elders of the Gu Clan nodded their heads. They understood the importance of what they had been told.
They left the main hall and headed towards the three clans. Gu Yuan also did not hesitate, and he left the main hall to visit the Soul Clan.
...
In the Soul Realm, with Gu Yuan's strength, he could naturally sneak in without a sound, but if he dared to sneak in without a sound and was discovered, it would be difficult to explain. The only option would be to go to war.
Therefore, Gu Yuan abandoned the idea of sneaking in without a sound and chose to enter the Soul Realm openly.
Gu Yuan appeared outside the Soul Realm, and his terrifying aura exploded from his body without any suppression.
The void devouring flame within the Soul Realm sensed something, and black flames flickered in its eyes, revealing an evil smile.
Then, its figure flickered and disappeared.
Beyond the soul realm.
A wisp of black flame appeared, followed by the rapid expansion and diffusion of the flame, forming a sea of fire that burned fiercely.
The black flame was eerie and abnormal, and when it appeared, the surrounding elemental forces became restless.
From within the black flame, a handsome man in a black robe emerged. The man was incredibly handsome, wearing a black robe, with black flames flickering in his eyes, and an upward curve to his mouth, looking extremely sinister.
The man was none other than Void Devouring Flame.
Void Devouring Flame's gaze fell on Gu Yuan and he said, "Gu Yuan, did you come to the wrong place?"
"This is not the Gu realm, but the domain of the Soul Clan, not the domain of your Gu clan."
