NOVPUBWith Gu Qingfeng’s order,
Gu Peng and the others immediately set out to slaughter their way to the Divine Fist Sect.
Gu Peng’s blood surged, his aura as terrifying as an abyss. When he launched his punch, he directly exploded the flesh of a Blood Refining Realm martial artist from the Divine Fist Sect.
"How dare you!"
Zhong Yang roared in anger, stepped forward, and brought down his right fist toward Gu Peng with the might of a collapsing sky.
In his view,
a mere Gu Peng was hardly worth mentioning.
The only real powerhouse in the entire Gu Family Manor was Gu Qingfeng.
The rest were somewhat insignificant in the Martial World, and their strength couldn’t possibly be considered formidable.
Since Ji Zong’s fall,
people from the Divine Fist Sect had been gathering intelligence on the Gu Family Manor with all their might.
Thus,
they believed they had a considerable understanding of the strength of the Gu Family Manor.
From the intelligence they had collected, Gu Peng was only an Outer Hall Master of the Gu Family, a minor Blood Refining Realm martial artist at best.
Even though Gu Peng had just exploded a Blood Refining Realm martial artist with a single punch, making his strength seem not as simple as the rumors suggested, Zhong Yang still didn’t take him seriously.
He threw his punch!
The impact was earth-shattering!
Watching Zhong Yang’s oncoming punch, a ferocious smile appeared on Gu Peng’s face as he threw his right fist in response.
Their fists collided.
Zhong Yang’s initial smirk instantly turned to horror.
"No—"
Before he could finish speaking, his arm burst violently, flesh and bone spraying in every direction, and the unstoppable force sent his body flying like a broken reed.
After he hit the ground,
Zhong Yang spat out mouthfuls of blood, his eyes filled with horror as he looked at Gu Peng.
"No... impossible, your strength... strength..."
He couldn’t complete his sentence, as Zhong Yang’s pupils dilated and he died with an expression of unwillingness on his face.
This scene
struck fear into the hearts of all within the Divine Fist Sect.
Since Ji Zong’s death, Zhong Yang, the Deputy Sect Master, had been the most publicly acknowledged top fighter in the Divine Fist Sect.
However,
this top fighter had been killed with a single punch by Gu Peng, shocking everyone.
It must be acknowledged
that even Gu Qingfeng, known in the Martial World as the Domineering Blade, had not genuinely made a move yet. It was just his subordinate who had the power to kill Zhong Yang in an instant. The shock of such a scene was imaginable.
"The manor master has ordered, leave none from the Divine Fist Sect alive!"
Gu Peng roared, his face filled with both the excitement of his power transformation and bloodlust.
Although Gu Peng had also killed many bandits and outlaws since leaving Guangyang Prefecture, these men weren’t of much importance.
Not to mention the Bone Refining Realm.
Those in the Blood Refining Realm were few and far between.
Therefore,
this battle with the Divine Fist Sect was the first time Gu Peng had truly exposed his Refining Organ Fifth Realm Perfection strength.
With a single punch, he had killed Zhong Yang, who had achieved Bone Refining Perfection, filling Gu Peng’s heart with excitement.
This was the power he had craved!
The strong fighters he used to hardly dare face, he could now suppress directly.
At the moment his words fell, Gu Peng charged into the crowd of the Divine Fist Sect like a tiger descending a mountain, his Refining Organ Realm strength bursting forth perfectly. Each punch he threw took away a life.
He wielded Gu Family Boxing.
However,
what seemed like ordinary Gu Family Boxing had now transcended to miraculous heights, backed by Gu Peng’s powerful cultivation.
For a time,
the disciples of the Divine Fist Sect were slaughtered to the point of terror.
Many disciples from the Outer Hall couldn’t help but show a look of reverence in their eyes as they watched their Hall Master killing left and right.
Looking at the Divine Fist Sect’s defeat, Gu Qingfeng’s expression remained calm.
With Gu Peng’s strength, suppressing the entire Divine Fist Sect was an effortless task.
Therefore,
he had no intention of lifting a finger.
And moreover,
these ordinary disciples of the Divine Fist Sect did not even qualify to make him act.
Even if it were the deceased Zhong Yang, it would be no different.
Bone Refining Realm!
Nothing but ants—
Gu Qingfeng then looked towards the location of the Divine Fist Sect’s gate, his gaze growing profound.
"Come on, let me see the true foundation of the Divine Fist Sect!"
"Let’s see if the Master of the past has really passed away in meditation!"
Thinking of the possible existence of a Master within the Divine Fist Sect, Gu Qingfeng felt his fighting spirit boiling. To him, clashing with a powerful adversary was also a form of enjoyment.
However,
over these years,
there hadn’t been many opportunities for Gu Qingfeng to truly exert himself.
Slaying the weak held no interest for him, and the Evil Buddha of the Nine Curves Road was too powerful. Thus, finding an equally matched opponent was not so easy.
Now,
Gu Qingfeng did hope that a Master existed within the Divine Fist Sect.
If so,
he would finally be able to witness firsthand just how much strength a so-called Master possessed.
As time passed,
the Divine Fist Sect was already in complete collapse.
Many sect elders had fallen under Gu Peng’s fists, and numerous others had abandoned the thought of resistance, hoping to surrender. Yet, Gu Peng did not spare them; whether they surrendered or resisted, all were slain without exception.
He did so because Gu Qingfeng had not spoken a word.
If the other party remained silent,
then the meaning was quite apparent.
Not a single member of the Divine Fist Sect would be left alive!
Having followed Gu Qingfeng for many years, Gu Peng naturally understood his temperament. It was either not taking action at all or, once he did, he eradicated the roots entirely, never leaving any trouble for the future.
Therefore,
Gu Peng showed no mercy.
From the moment Ji Zong took action to assassinate Gu Yang, the fate of the Divine Fist Sect had been sealed.
Eradicate the Divine Fist Sect!
Leave none behind!
—— 𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘱𝑢𝑏.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Soon enough,
the vast Divine Fist Sect was turned into rivers of blood.
The stele at the gate was stained with fresh blood, with limbs and broken bodies everywhere—the scene was exceedingly tragic.
Just then,
the Evil Slayer Blade on Gu Qingfeng’s back trembled slightly, his demeanor shifted, and a fighting spirit seemed to burst forth from his eyes.
"They’re here!"
As if in confirmation of Gu Qingfeng’s words,
suddenly a terrifying pressure swept through the air, causing many Outer Hall disciples to go pale and tremble uncontrollably under this influence.
Even Gu Peng’s face couldn’t help but reveal a look of shock.
Under this pressure, it seemed as though he was being targeted by some terrifying entity, giving him the false feeling that he could perish at any moment.
"Fall back!"
Gu Qingfeng slowly spoke.
Gu Peng and the others dared not hesitate and immediately retreated to Gu Qingfeng’s side.
At this time,
within the Divine Fist Sect,
there came a middle-aged martial artist leisurely descending from the mountain. The man was bald and barefoot, his expression peaceful, much like a high monk who had attained enlightenment. However, in Gu Qingfeng’s eyes, behind the seemingly tranquil visage of the newcomer lurked an evil demon.
With the arrival of this figure, despite the clear skies and bright sun, an indescribable chill descended.
"So you are that Master of the Divine Fist Sect!"
Gu Qingfeng stepped forward, his eyes brimming with fighting spirit as he regarded the middle-aged monk.
At this moment,
the newcomer halted.
Looking towards Gu Qingfeng, his eyes seemed to surge with bloodred hues, and his face revealed a mild yet eerily sinister smile.
"I am Shen Wudao!"
