Chapter 249: 249 Oppression from Celestial Being

“Is Qu Tianshu planning to act like a scared turtle? Why doesn’t he dare to come out and fight me!”

No sooner did Gu Yang and Xi Huang emerge from the lake than they heard a resounding voice arriving from afar, echoing throughout the whole sky and forming a reverb in the valley.

Could it really be someone here to challenge the East Sun Sword Saint?

He was somewhat curious. Qu Tianshu was indeed the name of the East Sun Sword Saint.

Around the world, the number of people who have the qualifications to challenge the East Sun Sword Saint could be counted on one’s fingers. He wondered who this challenger might be.

However, where had the East Sun Sword Saint gone?

On a second thought, Gu Yang wondered, “Could he be in Golden Court Cave-Heaven?”

Even if he was in a deep period of isolation, when someone knocks at his door, he should show up.

Unless, he was not in Linbin City at all.

There is a high possibility that he is inside Golden Court Cave-Heaven.

Even his disciple, Lan Shu, knew how to enter the Golden Court Cave-Heaven, so there’s no reason he didn’t know, right?

The more Gu Yang thought about it, the more probable it seemed. The other day, when he ran into Lan Shu, it was very likely that she was going to see her master.

At that moment, the blue bird popped its head out from within his arms, calling out excitedly, “Master, it’s the East Yang Sword.”

So, it was the East Yang Sword Saint.

Upon hearing his words, Gu Yang instantly understood.

The grudge between the East Yang Sword Saint and the East Sun Sword Saint can be traced back to their titles, simply because there is an “east” in both their names, they became rivals.

Later, they had a competition at the coast of the Eastern Sea. It was said to be very sensational back then, a duel between two Sword Saints.

Ultimately, the East Sun Sword Saint won by a move, establishing his position as the foremost of the Ten Sword Saints.

After that battle, the East Yang Sword Saint disappeared without a trace.

Now, more than a hundred years have passed, and the East Yang Sword Saint has surprisingly returned to challenge the East Sun Sword Saint again.

This battle should be very exciting to watch.

Seeing that Gu Yang had no reaction, the blue bird hastily said, “Master, the East Yang Sword, don’t you remember?”

Gu Yang wondered, “What’s the problem with the East Yang Sword?”

“Back in the day, your nephew, the White Tiger Demon Saint, was murdered by a scheme initiated by members of the East Yang Faction. His bones were refined into a Magic Treasure.”

The blue bird reminded him, “You once swore to exterminate the East Yang Faction. If you see one, kill one; if you see two, kill them both.”

That was a vow made by your master, what does it have to do with me?

Gu Yang coughed lightly and said, “So much time has passed, the East Yang Faction has long since disappeared into the dust of history. Just because this person has the East Yang Sword, it does not mean he is a successor to the East Yang Faction.”

Why would he purposefully provoke a Sword Saint?

Even though the East Yang Sword Saint was only a three-tier mana realm cultivator, if he truly went into battle, even Gu Yang and the Manifestation of the Divine Ape combined might not necessarily be his match.

The Sky General of Golden Court was said to be in the Unleaking Realm, but his actual combat methods were pitifully few. Once Gu Yang got close, he would only be at his mercy.

Simply put, his tactics naturally suppressed the Sky General, but not the East Yang Sword Saint. No matter how tough the skin and flesh of the Divine Ape Manifestation was, it couldn’t withstand the edge of the peerless divine weapon.

If he could elevate the strength of the Divine Ape Manifestation to the three-tier mana realm, he might be able to put up a fight.

“Let’s go.”

Without hesitation, Gu Yang left that place.

“Father, where are we going?”

After leaving Liangzhou, Xi Huang couldn’t help but ask.

“Tianzhu Mountain.”

It had been a long time since Gu Yang last saw Su Qingzhi and the others. To be honest, he missed them a bit and was also a little worried.

The future direction of Great Zhou has long been altered beyond recognition by him. Who knows if there would be any unexpected incidents?

Among them, the strongest one was Pei Qianlan, who was merely First Rank.

He wanted Xi Huang to stay there to recover his strength and protect them at the same time.

Xi Huang asked, “What is that place?”

“You will know when we get there.”

From Liangzhou to Jiangzhou, nearly spanning half of Great Zhou, a distance of tens of thousands of miles.

With their strength, they couldn’t fly there in one go. The mana at the mana realm was not inexhaustible.

During a rest stop along the way, Gu Yang opened the system and conducted a routine simulation as usual.

Every time he obtained a large amount of energy, there was bound to be trouble. So, he wanted to predict the fortunes and misfortunes in advance.

“At twenty-two, you have reached the first level of mana. You killed Shen Guang, who was at the second level of mana, and your name shook the world.”
