In the depths of his eyes, a turbulent killing intent surged like an undercurrent, nearly impossible to suppress. The Emperor Sect had a profound relationship with him, and Long Yundao was a respected elder who now met such an end!
He had to know, who!
In this oppressive silence, a voice with a hint of mockery and laziness emanated from beside a pillar not far away, breaking the heavy atmosphere.
"Tsk tsk tsk, what a moving scene."
The crowd looked toward the voice and saw a young man in a black outfit, with a hint of evil qi on his face, leaning against the pillar with arms crossed, leisurely watching, a playful smile tugging at his lips.
The young man in black seemed to relish being the center of attention; his gaze fell directly on Gu Sheng, his tone frivolous.
"Gu Sheng, right? My master has a message for you."
He paused, then spoke each word slowly and clearly, his voice resonating throughout the hall.
"The downfall of the Emperor Sect counts as your first ’gift’. I hope you like it. As for the next ’gift’..."
He deliberately dragged out his tone, watching as Gu Sheng’s eyes turned icy cold, smiling more smugly.
"It’s already sent to Wuyun City. Calculate the time, the assassins dispatched should have arrived in Wuyun City and begun their work by now? Hehe."
The words "Wuyun City" pierced Gu Sheng’s heart like the sharpest ice cone! It’s where his foundation lies, where he must protect his people!
Boom—!
The long-restrained terrifying killing intent erupted from Gu Sheng like a volcano accumulating for millennia!
A visibly chilling aura spread explosively from him, the hall’s temperature suddenly dropped, and a thin layer of frost formed on the ground! Those nearby couldn’t help but shiver, feeling as if their souls might freeze under this murderous intent!
"You, courting, death!"
Gu Sheng’s voice seemed to originate from the Nine Nether Hell, filled with endless cold and anger; as he stepped forward, the entire Linyin Pavilion seemed to tremble, a powerful aura crushing toward the young man in black like a mountain!
Yet, faced with this overwhelming killing intent and terrifying aura, the young man in black showed no fear; instead, a sly smile of achieved scheme appeared on his face.
"My task is complete. Gu Sheng, enjoy the feast my master prepared for you! I’ll be waiting below, hahahaha..."
In a burst of laughter, just before Gu Sheng’s aura reached him, the young man’s gaze dimmed instantly, his aura dispersed like a punctured balloon, dropping limply with no vitality.
Unexpectedly, after delivering the message, he directly severed all his vitality, leaving no chance for questioning!
Gu Sheng stopped before the corpse of the young man in black, looking at the rapidly cooling body, his murderous intent not only failed to weaken but became more solid and terrifying.
The hall fell silent, everyone stunned by this series of events, the air heavy with a suffocating sense of oppression.
The Emperor Sect destroyed, the Sect Master dead.
Wuyun City under attack, assassins arrived.
The mastermind sent a "gift", the messenger self-slain.
A string of messages, each more shocking, each more perilous than the last.
Gu Sheng stood there like a cold sculpture, only those deep eyes surged with enough anger to burn everything and a chilling murderous intent. Long Yundao’s tragic end, the young man’s mocking words, especially the possible tragedy happening in "Wuyun City", gnawed at his heart like venomous snakes.
The storm is coming, killing intent is revealed.
This Great Wilderness City is destined to be no longer peaceful.
The air within Linyin Pavilion seemed to freeze into ice, so heavy it was hard to breathe. The chilling aura emanating from Gu Sheng made everyone present feel as if they were in bone-freezing weather, penetrating to their marrow.
Gu Sheng’s voice wasn’t loud, yet it carried indisputable authority, like thunder booming in every Linlang Guard’s ear.
