Chapter 587: Chapter 142: Sea of Fire on the Long Street (Vote for Monthly Ticket!)_3

S-class talent?

It was nothing but a joke!

"Perhaps... I’m not as invested in these things as you think?"

Xu Yan laughed softly.

And in the next moment,

a figure stepped into the sea of fire!

"Gu Shen, stop!"

The newcomer was Zhu Wang.

Zhu Wang arrived at the long street immediately, reaching out a large hand to grab Gu Shen... and in the next moment, above Gu Shen’s head, the Infinite Light Domain unfolded.

A giant scale cast its shadow on the ground.

In the next moment,

Zhu Wang’s outstretched hand was repelled by the Infinite Scale Domain.

"Keep fighting, don’t stop."

Mr. Gu also stepped into the long street’s sea of fire.

He stood on the other side of the long street, speaking calmly, exuding a domineering aura.

It was quite evident.

He had long been displeased with Xu Yan... With a chance for Gu Shen to beat him up, how could he possibly stop?

In fact, the news of the two S-classes gathering at the Mu Family Ancestral Hall couldn’t be hidden from Changye’s "Wind Eye." Many people were already paying attention to this place even before this farce began... and the moment the fight started, the influential figures began rushing over.

Zhu Wang stared at Mr. Gu, his expression grim.

Following that, another figure, slowly pushing a wheelchair, entered the sea of fire outside.

Gu Lushen arrived at the long street.

However, he stood on the same side as Zhu Wang. When the third Titled entered the long street’s sea of fire, the balance of the situation shifted, the Infinite Scale’s Spiritual Domain was immediately suppressed, retreating bit by bit.

Gu Qilin merely sneered, without the slightest intention to retreat. Instead, he withstood the pressure from the two, once again spreading out the Infinite Scale, suspending it above Gu Shen’s head, and said calmly, "Fight! I’ll bear the consequences if the sky falls!"

This stalemate did not last long.

A few seconds later—

A fourth Titled... entered the sea of fire, and his appearance shocked both sides.

"Stop fighting."

"This... after all, is my Mu Family’s century-old ancestral hall, if this continues, the Mu Family may as well move out of Changye."

This voice caused Mr. Gu to withdraw his domain, and also made Zhu Wang and Gu Lushen stop.

Inside the collapsed Mu Family courtyard walls, the elders who heard this voice looked increasingly grim.

This farce came to an "end" with the arrival of the Mu Family Master.

The elders of the Mu Family Elder Council emerged one by one from the main gate to greet the Family Head.

On both sides of the long street, the two factions stood with the Mu Family in the middle.

Mu Ya also stepped out of the courtyard walls, her eyes darkened as she looked at the Family Head, seeing the Fourth Elder who arrived with him, and her anxious brother Mu Nan, who kept waving at her.

In the end, she hesitated for a moment, but did not choose to return to the Mu Family camp. Instead, with the support of Lu Nanjin, she moved to Mr. Gu’s side.

Those people,

made her uneasy.

The Mu Family Master looked at Mu Ya with a guilty expression.

Unfortunately, he had been in seclusion yesterday... and hadn’t even paid attention to Xu Yan’s matter. By the time he got the news, it was already too late.

Most importantly,

this incident had caused irreparable damage to both the Mu and Gong Families.

He couldn’t imagine how he would face his old friend Gong Qing after this was settled.

...

...

Han Dang returned to Zhu Wang’s side with a grim expression. Using spiritual power, he briefly recounted what had just happened.

Zhu Wang’s expression had a subtle change, but he remained calm on the surface.

Gu Shen finally stood up.

He looked calmly at the "dying" Xu Yan below him.

Although they both possessed similar body techniques like the Complete Flash, it was clear... the two initial punches he took had cost Xu Yan greatly. He was covered in blood, lying on the ground miserably, while in contrast, Gu Shen didn’t have a single scratch on him.

There was almost no suspense.

It was a complete victory.

But... Gu Shen knew that after this fight, he would inevitably get into some trouble.

In Changye, fighting was allowed.

But... it had to conform with the law.

Changye supported fair and just duels.

This was to protect lower-level Transcendents.

Gu Shen had already realized that if Zhu Wang pursued action against him next, Xu Yan’s initial "intentional concession" would play a very important role... Xu Yan could certainly claim he didn’t react at all, but that would severely damage his reputation.

Gu Shen silently watched the man lying on the ground, face covered in blood, yet grinning at him.

Clearly,

Xu Yan didn’t care about such things.

He did it on purpose.

Not just for today’s fight...

Maybe, there was more, perhaps, everything.

"Gu Shen... ’Wind Eye’ captured everything you did in the ancestral hall. I think you need to explain."

Zhu Wang rubbed his temples.

He said calmly, "You violated Changye’s Transcendent laws. What were your intentions in your actions towards Xu Yan?"

"Of course... you don’t need to explain to me."

Zhu Wang shifted his gaze to the far end of the long street.

More and more influential figures were arriving.

The Chairman of the Security Committee, Elder Zhou, had also arrived at the long street. After the fire sea subsided, this alley didn’t show signs of scorching. Gu Shen’s Chi Huo had not caused the actual collapse of buildings. However, the power of Gu Shen’s punches had shattered several walls, leaving debris everywhere.

"Elder Zhou, the entire Changye is watching this... I think you need to handle it impartially."

Zhu Wang said calmly, "I suspect Gu Shen’s mental state might be unstable. I think he should be detained directly and closely observed for at least forty-eight hours. If Xu Yan’s injuries are too severe... I request the Security Committee to isolate Gu Shen and address his instability risks."

(PS: 1. Seeing some comments makes me a bit tired. This plot arc is very long, the longer the buildup, the longer the corresponding climax will be, so I want to write it satisfactorily. To have a comprehensive view, some sacrifices are inevitable. I will say this one last time, all villains will get their just deserts. I will no longer respond to related remarks. I highly respect every paying reader’s reading experience. I can only promise to write more, write faster, and maintain quality. 2. For those who see this, it should be the beginning of the month. I hope you can vote for the monthly tickets at the start of the month.)
