Chapter 422: Chapter 35 Madman Gouyun?_1

The dark-clad elder felt his scalp tingle and his soul shudder, as if some immense crisis was about to befall him. On instinct, he unleashed all his strength, revealing himself to be an Earthly Immortal from Level Nine Heaven!

The dark-clad elder bellowed, "Be careful!"

However, just as the word left his mouth, darkness enveloped his vision, and the faint sound of thunder cracked through the air.

After that, he knew nothing.

The spectators on the ground, who had a clear view, saw the spear that had vanished in the sky suddenly reappear before the little Dragon King’s men, piercing through the dark-clad elder’s head. Then, the dark clouds spread and lightning flashed, reducing those men to a cloud of dust dispersed by the thunder!

At the end of that spear were Sun Wukong and Rabbit, with Rabbit seemingly about to lunge forward but being held back by the Monkey, who stood in front, with a serious expression, and shot two beams of golden light from his eyes!

Then, the spear vanished, only to reappear miles away!

Next, a voice came from within the dark clouds, "You count as a spectator."

As those words were uttered, the crowd erupted into an uproar. They had already tried to imagine the full extent of the Monkey’s power, but they had never considered that his strength would be recognized by Gouyun! This meant that the Monkey was a fearsome creature on the same level as Gouyun and Yao Bofu!

Thinking back to their previous scorn and mockery of the Monkey, they blushed with embarrassment.

And considering Gouyun’s words, if the Monkey counted as a spectator, what did that make them?

So, one by one, their faces grew even redder, this time with anger.

The little boy looked at his grandfather whose face was increasingly red. Unable to help himself, he asked, "Grandpa, are you constipated? Your face is all red." Then, after looking around in surprise, he said, "It looks like everyone is constipated."

All around, numerous annoyed glances were directed at them.

The old man quickly covered the boy’s mouth, giving an awkward chuckle to the people around them. Realizing it was just a child speaking, they turned their heads away, though their expressions were still quite sour.

Yao Bofu, who had remained silent and uninvolved, finally spoke up at this moment, "Brother Gouyun, why bother with this? You’re in Wuyue, I am in Jiuyi. We live in peace, not interfering with each other. Why must this battle happen now?"

As he spoke, the dark clouds had already descended over Xiang River, covering half the sky.

Only then did Qin Shou see clearly that in the midst of the dark clouds was a black-haired man dressed in black. His eyes burned like flames, his pupils dilating and contracting erratically, his face twisted in a maniacal grin. One look at that face and you felt an urge to go wild with your hands, to maul him into harmony!

Overall, this was someone whose entire being radiated a strange and unsettling aura, as if every hair on his body was expressing different emotions at any given time—a curiously bizarre individual!

Despite this, Qin Shou had to admit, the man was still quite handsome, albeit in a strange way, not with the open and righteous handsomeness of Yao Bofu.

Hearing the words of Yao Bofu, Gouyun responded with a brilliantly beaming smile, "Alright, let’s not fight then."

This statement stunned everyone; the turn of events was too sudden, so sudden that many wanted to curse in dismay!

They had traveled from afar to claim a spot, got pummeled by a monkey, and now, after waiting for ages, the fight was off! What was this, a game to them?

Unfortunately, even with their dissatisfaction, no one dared to voice or show it, because the man before them was not the magnanimous Yao Bofu, nor was he the posturing but limited little Dragon King of the South Sea—instead, he was a madman whose temperament was famously unpredictable!

No one dared to curse at a madman with an explosive fight value, because no one knew what he might do next.

Qin Shou was also somewhat baffled, muttering to himself, "Damn it, what’s going on in this guy’s head? Saying he won’t fight and then just stops?"

Sun Wukong didn’t utter a sound.

Yao Bofu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That’s for the best."

Gouyun nodded and followed up, "Yeah, yeah, indeed that’s pretty good. You go ahead, I’ll go find you after I’ve killed these people, and we can have a long chat."

The moment these words were spoken, the place exploded into an uproar!

Countless terrified eyes looked towards the sky, filled with immense sorrow and injustice. They hadn’t offended anyone, so why must they be killed just for watching the excitement?

Some people had already started to run away, while others retreated to the Yu Clan’s vicinity, hoping to find protection.

There were also those who didn’t believe Gouyun would really go against the grain and embark on a killing spree.

Another group set their hopes on Yao Bofu, firmly believing that a descendant of Emperor Shun would protect them from harm.

But no matter what they thought or did, fear gripped their hearts, because these words came from Gouyun, the young patriarch of Wu Yue!

The young patriarch, a title Gouyun had assigned to himself.

It meant the youngest ancestor of the two regions of Wu and Yue!

That title was quite domineering, declaring himself the ancestor of the two great clans and regions of Wuyue. It was as if he was grinding the ancestors’ ashes of the Wu and Yue families under his heel!

What was even more bizarre was that the two families of Wuyue had actually accepted this!

One must know that the two families of Wuyue were prestigious clans with a long history; the families had several Heavenly Immortals, and it was rumored they even had a Golden Immortal, though it was uncertain if they were still alive. However, Gouyun was merely an Earthly Immortal, and even if his extraordinary talents were favored by both families, it still didn’t justify him taking such a disrespectful title.

Therefore, many speculated that the way Gouyun took control of the two families was bloodstained!

But as for the specifics, there were numerous rumors. Some said Gouyun had a very powerful patron backing him from behind.

Others said Gouyun had control over a powerful magic treasure, capable of intimidating both families!

Regardless of the speculations, one thing was certain: Gouyun was not to be trifled with!

Who would dare not take seriously the words of someone who could suppress two major clans with his own power?

It is known that although the Yu Clan reached its zenith during the time of Emperor Shun, many years had passed, and the clan had since begun to decline. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have taken no share in the Divine Enthronement battles and stayed hidden in the mountains living their simple lives.

Some even said that the Yu Clan’s strength was only slightly stronger than the two families of Wuyue, due mainly to their deeper heritage, and they likely had a nature spirit treasure in their possession. Furthermore, the Heavenly Court had always held Emperor Shun in the highest regard, and with their own strength coupled with official favoritism, the Yu Clan became untouchable, and nobody dared to target them.

But now, with the Heavenly Court’s doors closed and the so-called heritage of the Yu Clan never having been demonstrated,

And given that Gouyun had stepped over others to get to where he was, it was natural for people to be worried when comparing the two.
