Supreme Lord of the Earth - C293
On Eight Mount Gongshan, every weapon was a weapon.
As the close relative of the Great Halberd Holy Empress, the Gu Clan may not have become an official, but they controlled the Great Halberd Court, and even the armory production of the entire human race. Their clan was powerful, and had great wealth, so they were not chosen as the second clan in the world.
And this Eight Mount Gongshan in front of him, was the headquarters of the Gu Clan.
From the foot of the mountain, the area of fifty miles was classified as a forbidden area. According to legend, Gu’s’s Elite Workshop was constructed here, and the most proud smelting technique and workshop was hidden within the mountain.
This Eight Mount Gongshan was originally a huge treasure trove, with abundant mineral resources. It was the basis for the establishment of the Gu’s.
Gu Tian walked all the way to the foot of the mountain, then followed the winding mountain path and walked slowly.
From time to time, he would see some disciples of the Gu’s branch who were working hard. When they saw Gu Tian, they all raised their hands to greet him.
These people stayed in the Eight Mount Gongshan all day long, taking care of everything they ate and lived in. They only needed to focus on researching and developing heaven’s work, not asking anything about what was happening in the outside world.
So in these people’s eyes, Gu Tian was still the young master of the Gu family who had grown up in the Eight Mount Gongshan.
Along the way, Gu Tian did not encounter any obstructions, but he was clear that not just anyone could enter the Eight Mount Gongshan, there were many strong mechanisms and experts hidden in the mountain. If it were not for the core disciples of the Gu’s, even with tens of thousands of elite soldiers, they would not be able to reach the Eight Mount Gongshan.
They were all talking about the fear of approaching their hometown, when Gu Tian reached halfway up the mountain, he could not help but rest, and looked at the lush greenery at the foot of the mountain, it was a scene of a peaceful life.
Perhaps this was the life of most of the Gu family members!
Gu Tian continued to climb, and followed the stone steps below him, step by step.
After they passed the observation deck called Feng Ling’s Spring Festival, more and more people began to appear in front of them.
Although it was not exactly ten steps one guard, five steps one guard, in Gu Tian’s eyes, this was already a rare warning from the Gu Clan, it would not be excessive to say that it was as if he was facing a great enemy.
“Could it be that they were guarding against me? That can’t be true! ”
Gu Tian even mocked himself a little.
When they arrived at a flying stone about five miles away from the peak, the ancient stone looked at the huge rock that the elders called a flying stone, and many happy memories from its childhood surged up in his heart.
A familiar figure appeared in front of him. It was Gu Fengyun!
Gu Tian vaguely remembered that when he was young, this amiable uncle of his had even hugged him and leapt onto the flying rocks. At that time, was extremely excited and felt that this uncle of his was the most amazing person in the world who treated him the best.
“You’re here!”
Gu Fengyun said leisurely with his hands behind his back.
Gu Tian’s gaze could not help but fall on Eldest Uncle Gu Fengyun’s slightly graying temples, and he wanted to say something but stopped himself.
It was unknown since when he had become a thorn in Eldest Uncle’s side, but he had always felt that because he was too weak, Eldest Uncle was angry at him for not fighting and hated him for not being able to win. However, as he slowly grew up, he understood more and more things that made him feel sad.
“Uncle, do you remember?” When I was young, it was you who carried me up! ”
Gu Tian pointed to the huge flying rock in front of him and sighed.
Gu Fengyun’s body trembled, his eyes revealing a look of reverie.
“You’ve grown up! “I’m old!”
Gu Fengyun said in a heavy voice.
Gu Tian’s heart softened. In fact, ever since he lost his parents, he had always seen this uncle of his as a substitute for his father.
“Uncle, I actually don’t mind if you want to become the Patriarch! I know what I am, and I don’t want to argue with you! I came here this time because I wanted to meet with Grandfather and then explain everything to him in person. ”
Gu Tian thought about it, then decided to say everything out loud.
Gu Fengyun was slightly startled as he shook his head. It was unknown if he felt gratified or if he had other thoughts.
From Gu Tian’s point of view, the only thing he needed to persuade was the Old Master, who wanted him to be the Patriarch, not his own wish. As long as the Old Master was willing to change his mind, Gu’s would remain as a family.
Furthermore, Gu Tian had his own businesses and thoughts. Even if he left the Gu family, he was confident that he would chase after his dreams. Therefore, Gu Tian came to see the Old Master as he was more like a collaborator.
“Follow me!”
Gu Fengyun didn’t seem to want to say much, so he simply replied and then continued to lead the way.
Gu Tian could only follow behind his uncle as the two of them walked five miles in silence.
The atmosphere was slightly stifling. The higher he went, the fewer signs of humans there were.
The path beneath his feet was filled with weeds, leaving behind only a small trail, indicating that there was once a road here.
It was probably because there were too few people who could reach the top!
The environment here is closer to the state of nature.
“The Old Master is inside. We’ll be able to see him once we go in.”
Gu Fengyun stopped at the entrance of the cave and said indifferently.
This cave was constructed using the most primitive mining cave in the Eight Mount Gongshan, it was usually used to store ores, it was hard to imagine the Old Master of the Gu Clan would stay inside.
“The old man’s health isn’t too good. You’ll know when you get in!”
Gu Fengyun said with a wooden face.
Gu Tian stood at the entrance of the cave and hesitated for a moment.
Seeing him go into the cave, Gu Fengyun revealed a satisfied smile.
Once he entered the cave, Gu Tian immediately felt that something was wrong!
The surrounding natural elemental energy seemed to have completely disappeared. Moreover, it wasn’t because of the surrounding environment, but because not a single drop was left. It was completely gone.
“There’s something strange about this hole!”
Gu Tian reacted in an instant. When he wanted to return out of the cave, he found that there were many layers of powerful restrictions at the cave entrance. An invisible force stopped his steps.
Gu Tian unhesitatingly pulled out the Ruyi Sword, channeled his Spirit Qi into his sword and slashed down forcefully.
A strange sponge-like power absorbed the sword force, and Gu Tian could clearly feel that the sword force had dissolved into layers of undulations which dissipated into the air.
He was shocked and angry at the same time. He raised his hand and swung his sword with all his might. The sword was not aimed at the entrance of the cave, but at the stone wall beside him.
Pop!
The blade of the sword seemed to have cut into a slippery object. The stone wall was still there, but the force of the sword had been dissolved into countless streams, unable to form any sort of destructive force.
The fact that the stone wall was motionless gave Gu Tian an illusion. Although he could see it, he was unable to cut it down, as if there were countless layers of space separating them.
At this time, Gu Longyin’s voice sounded beside his ears: “Gu Tian! No need to waste your energy, the restrictions in this cave are formed by my Upper Clarity Moon Palace’s Celestial Glass Mirror, let alone you! Even a Life Taking Realm Ranker would not be able to break it! ”
“Why? Is there something wrong with all of you!? ”
Gu Tian roared in anger.
In Gu Tian’s opinion, he had no intention to fight for power. He only wanted to meet his grandfather once, to explain everything clearly, yet they actually resorted to such underhanded methods.
Outside the cave, Gu Longyin and Gu Fengyun stood shoulder to shoulder.
Gu Longyin replied with a smile: “I’m very sorry, it’s not that we don’t trust you, but we don’t believe that you will always be so cooperative. Instead of waiting for the variable to happen, it was better to hold the variable firmly in one’s hand. Furthermore, we did not lie to you. As long as you continue walking in, you will be able to see the Old Master of Gu’s! ”
Hearing these words, Gu Tian was shocked in his heart, and blurted out: “What did you do to my grandfather? Gu Fengyun, are you crazy? That’s your father! Are you still human when you lock him up? ”
Gu Fengyun’s face still did not reveal any expression, and his gaze was a little apathetic.
Gu Longyin laughed: “Don’t worry, we won’t kill you! Just like how he wouldn’t kill the old man. Didn’t you want to stay with the old tutor? Now your wish is almost fulfilled. But I am curious, how did you and Meng Kang create that sword? “If you can tell me this secret, I will let you and your grandson live as well as you can inside!”
“In your dreams! Do you think this crappy place can hold me? You’re just a bastard! Just you wait! Very soon, someone will come and take care of you! ”
Gu Tian cursed coldly.
Gu Longyin didn’t mind and shrugged his shoulders. “It’s fine! I can wait. You’ll be in there for a long, long time anyway! I don’t mind! ”
“F * ck your entire family!”
After Gu Tian spat on the ground, he went deeper into the cave.
Regardless of whether what the other party said was true or not, he still had to go and take a look. As long as he could see his grandfather, he was willing to pay any price.
Beneath Eight Mount Gongshan, a shocking piece of news quickly spread to Shanghai City.
Everyone who heard this news felt that Gu Fengyun and his son must be crazy!
When the word came out from the Gu Clan, the Old Master gave his unfilial son, Gu Tian a ruthless lesson. He also ordered him to be grounded and not to leave the mountain for three years.
Who was the Old Master?
He was the uncle of the elder of the current Emperor Sheng Houhuanhai. Although he was not the Divine Empress’ biological father, he was not far from it.
The old man was enraged, wouldn’t beating up Gu Tian like a game?
There were also people who raised doubts, as they didn’t believe that it was Old Man Gu. Gu Tian had just obtained the first place in the work department, so it was clear that he wanted to return to the Gu’s to fight for the authority of the clan. Furthermore, Gu Tian had been doted on since he was young.
At that moment, all sorts of discussions broke out. Not only was it within the Gu Clan, there were also many forces with countless connections with the Gu Clan.
It was already the morning of the second day when news reached medical school.
When Meng Kang received this news, there were already several versions of them in the Shanghai City.
Some said that Gu Tian had secretly established his own power, angered the Old Master, and used family law to imprison him within the Eight Mount Gongshan.
There were also some people who said that according to the inside news of the Gu’s, the Gu’s Clan received the decree of the Divine Empress. In order to maintain the clan’s interest and stability, they forcefully suppressed the Old Master, allowing him to take care of Gu Tian.
On the contrary, the entire Gu Clan remained silent on this matter. No matter how many speculations from the outside world, all kinds of small rumors were flying about, but in the end, no one came out to clarify it.
However, all these conjectures, were not important to Meng Kang.
He only knew that it was that simple after Gu Tian left the medical school for the Gu’s and was unable to return afterwards.
