Chapter 789 Dangerous Aura
Gu Wutian only swept a faint glance at Gu Wanquan in response to his words.
There was no other reply.
Gu Wanquan seemed completely oblivious to Gu Wutian’s indifference, his face beaming with unabated joy.
"Wutian, this man’s name is Jing Yan. Look around you, see how many of the Ancient Family’s descendants have fallen—they died at his hands. Wutian, you must avenge our fallen kin and kill him! Slay Jing Yan, the bastard!" Gu Wanquan shrieked and yelled.
Just as his words fell, Gu Wutian’s frigid gaze suddenly pierced through him.
Gu Wanquan’s body shuddered slightly as he hastily sealed his lips, realizing he had spoken incorrectly. In his life, aside from the irreconcilable hatred for his father, what Gu Wutian despised most was to hear the word ’bastard’ being uttered before him—because his father was human, while his mother was a wildling, a form of spiritual beast.
"Say it again, and I’ll kill you!" This time, Gu Wutian harshly spat out a few words.
Perhaps it was because he seldom spoke in his life, but Gu Wutian’s voice was extremely odd, bearing the grating sound of stones grinding against each other, making it quite uncomfortable to hear.
Gu Wanquan’s facial expression shifted, but he did comply and kept his mouth shut. He knew Gu Wutian’s sore spot; his earlier outburst had been an angry slip, momentarily forgetting Gu Wutian’s taboo.
The Martial Artists from the Ancient Family Camp exhaled in relief.
Gu Wutian’s arrival had undoubtedly given them a chance to breathe. Had Gu Wutian not appeared, their deaths would have been almost certain. Jing Yan’s assaults were too ferocious; no one could withstand them, not even those protected by Defensive Spiritual Artifacts, which were powerless against his terrifying and inscrutable Attack Power.
Meanwhile, the elders of the Six Great Families, watching the Ancient Family Mansion from the city’s edge, became excited.
