Nine Realms Sword Emperor
Chapter 934 - 935: The Arrival of the Smoke Emperor

Chapter 934: Chapter 935: The Arrival of the Smoke Emperor

"As you command."

Gu Jin looked at the side, where Gu Quan, already sealed by Spiritual Power, couldn’t escape even if he wanted to, and her eyes were full of killing intent.

Whether it was the danger she encountered last time when she went to kill the Blood Sword Demon Venerable, or this time when she was forced to marry that Young Master Jian.

All were orchestrated by Gu Quan behind the scenes.

Looking at Gu Quan, Gu Jin didn’t hesitate for a moment, abruptly slashing out with a sword, decapitating Gu Quan, and then shattering his body with a palm.

After completing all this, Chu Fengmian felt that the aura on Gu Jin’s body had stabilized considerably, indescribably refreshing.

The opponent she had always faced, had just died by her own hands; for any Martial Artist, it was an extremely refreshing thing.

"Head of the Gu Family, that Young Master Jian should be arriving soon. Prepare yourself and lead him in first, then I’ll deal with him."

Chu Fengmian calmly spoke to the Family Head of the Gu Family beside him.

"Yes."

The Family Head of the Gu Family hurriedly cleaned up the messy scene entirely.

Now he had no doubts about Chu Fengmian’s strength, even if he were an Emperor?

With Chu Fengmian’s current methods, comparable to the supreme ancestors, dealing with a few Emperors was a piece of cake.

One hour later.

Above the Ningzhou Ancient City, terrifying pressures suddenly appeared, and then the space was directly torn open.

From this torn space, two figures slowly walked out.

These two figures, one old and one young, with the young man possessing handsome features, but his gaze was as venomous as a serpent’s.

These two were none other than Young Master Jian, Jian Zongjie, and the figure behind him, his master, Yan Huang, the two descended directly.

Upon their arrival at Ningzhou Ancient City, they paid no heed to the city’s restrictions, but Yan Huang directly acted, tearing apart the city’s barriers with a flick.

Allowing the two of them to step into Ningzhou Ancient City.

"Ningzhou Ancient City, letting the Gu Family occupy such a city, is truly a waste."

Jian Zongjie looked at the bustling Ningzhou Ancient City below, with a cold smile in his eyes as he spoke.

"This time, I will take their most outstanding daughter of the Gu Family as a concubine, which is their great fortune. If the Gu Family were wise, they should submit to me."

"I didn’t expect the Gu Family Head to be so obstinate, actually wanting to resist me, troubling my master to handle it this time."

"A mere Gu Family, without even an Emperor, dares to resist our Heavenly Sword Sect. Humph, it seems that the prestige of our Seven Great Sects is being challenged everywhere!"

Standing beside Jian Zongjie, Yan Huang also observed the surroundings, speaking coldly.

"Today, I have personally come. If the Gu Family does not provide an explanation, this matter will not end today."

"Master, there’s no need to get angry. When we reach the Gu Family, we will naturally have a way to take control of them. The Gu Family occupies Ningzhou Ancient City and has a plentiful fortune. Acquiring the Gu Family’s wealth will further strengthen our sect."

Jian Zongjie laughed loudly beside him as he spoke.

"A city like Ningzhou Ancient City is not something the Gu Family deserves to own."

These two figures, after pausing in the air, directly descended into the Gu Family.

At the same time.

From within the Gu Family, an immense pressure suddenly enveloped them.

The countless disciples of the Gu Family, feeling this pressure, all knelt down, trembling with fear.

"Hmph, a bunch of trash."

Jian Zongjie glanced coldly at the surrounding Gu Family disciples, roaring loudly.

"Gu Family Head, aren’t you coming out to meet?"

"So it’s Young Master Jian and this is Elder Yan Huang, I presume."

Not long after, the Gu Family Head flew out, bowing respectfully as he spoke upon seeing the two of them.

"I kindly ask the two of you to withdraw your pressure, as my Gu Family’s disciples are of low strength and can’t withstand such pressure."

"Hmm."

Seeing the Gu Family Head so respectful, both Jian Zongjie and Yan Huang withdrew their pressure.

Jian Zongjie, seeing that only the Gu Family Head had appeared, frowned slightly as he spoke.

"Where is Miss Gu Jin? Why isn’t she here?"

"Jin’er knew of Young Master Jian’s arrival, so she’s hurriedly arranging the banquet in the palace and can’t greet you. I ask for Young Master Jian and Elder Yan Huang’s understanding."

The Gu Family Head spoke with calm, unreadable expressions.

"I ask the two of you to take a seat in the palace. Our Gu Family has already arranged a banquet waiting for the two of you."

"Alright."

Jian Zongjie and Yan Huang both nodded them and followed the Gu Family Head into the palace.

Within the palace, Chu Fengmian was already seated at the banquet, quietly drinking tea. Upon seeing Jian Zongjie and Yan Huang arrive, Chu Fengmian’s expression didn’t change; he continued sipping his tea leisurely.

Both Jian Zongjie and Yan Huang glanced at Chu Fengmian, seeing him as an oddity with a trace of hostility in their eyes.

Jian Zongjie immediately asked with dissatisfaction.

"Gu Family Head, who is this? Why is there someone else at today’s banquet?"

"Oh, that’s a young disciple of our Gu Family, inexperienced, and unaware of your identities. I ask your pardon."

The Gu Family Head slowly replied.

"Young Master Jian, my daughter Jin’er has been waiting for you for a long time. I ask the two of you to be seated quickly."

Upon hearing this, Jian Zongjie and Yan Huang both nodded, ignoring Chu Fengmian as they directly took seats at the banquet.

To them, an old ancestor at the Divine Martial Realm was no different from an ant.

Not worthy of any of their regard.

"Gu Family Head, last time you were evasive and blocked me. Is it because you look down on our Heavenly Sword Sect? Or is it that I, Jian Zongjie, am unworthy of your daughter?"

As soon as Jian Zongjie sat down, he suddenly looked at the Gu Family Head and spoke sharply.

"This time, my master has come in person, not just to propose but to discuss something with you."

"I wonder what business Elder Yan Huang has come for this time?"

The Gu Family Head put on a look of fear and hurriedly inquired.

Yan Huang then slowly spoke, his voice very old, yet his tone was like an order, leaving no room for negotiation.

"It’s a simple matter. We just want your Gu Family to merge into our Heavenly Sword Sect, and from now on, this Ningzhou Ancient City will be managed by our sect."

"Now the Six Paths Demon Sect has suddenly emerged in the Nine Domains, causing widespread fear, with many cities being occupied by them. Although Ningzhou Ancient City hasn’t yet faced a crisis, preventive measures are necessary, so all cities will be controlled by our Seven Great Sects. Ningzhou Ancient City is no exception."

"Since Gu Jin is marrying my disciple today, it would be convenient for the Gu Family to merge into the Heavenly Sword Sect as well."
