942 Peculiar Injury (1/2)
Three hundred years ago, Cao Guo Feng and Gu Yun Yang had indeed arranged for a showdown. The duo fought for a day and a night, and still, a winner couldn't be determined. This matter was kept secret, and no one was to divulge it. If any one of them achieved a breakthrough, then they would arrange again for another match!
Cao Guo Feng had always kept his word and not mentioned it to anyone else. But today, he was hearing of this matter from Gu Yun Yang's grandson! And the battle result of being evenly matched was altered to him begging for mercy on the ground pitifully, and the reason why he was still alive was because he was spared his life! What nonsense was this?! If such talk is really spread around, can I still remain alive?!
He couldn't help but turn over and look at Gu Yun Yang with a look of disdain.
Gu Yun Yang's face flushed red. ”Brother Cao, please don't misunderstand! How can there be such a thing?! It's all rubbish that those little b*stards blindly fabricated…”
Cao Guo Feng had plenty of experience to tell with one look at Gu Yun Yang's attitude that the matter about their showdown had become an accomplishment that Gu Yun Yang used to flaunt to the juniors of his family. The outcome of the battle may not be as pathetic as Gu Fei Yu had made it sound, but it definitely wouldn't be any better.
His face couldn't help but turn as cold as ice. He nodded his head and said, ”Great! Great! Great! Great brother! Great friend! A great grandson you've groomed there! Great, great, great, I have lived in vain for hundreds of years now. I've only come to learn something new today… I really didn't know that the Gu Family is so powerful in the Misty Illusory Manor. For so many years, I've really been ignorant and inexperienced…”
A look of sincere embarrassment appeared on Gu Yun Yang's face. He really couldn't figure this out. This was such a private matter—only him and Cao Guo Feng, the two who were involved, knew of it. How did his grandson find out?!
Cao Guo Feng definitely did not divulge it; even if he did, he wouldn't make himself sound that bad, so the problem obviously lay with Gu Yun Yang himself. But in his memories, he clearly did not mention this matter to anyone!
Fortuitously, in one of his drunken stupors, this old man had unintentionally brought up the battle between him and Cao Guo Feng. Before his sons and juniors, this drunken Old Master Gu naturally exaggerated the outcome of the battle by a little bit, changing it from being evenly matched to him slightly standing in a more advantageous position.
But it was a pity that under the exaggeration of the juniors, it became more and more exaggerated and ultimately became like this! And it was because of this misinformation that Gu Fei Yu assumed that Mo Jun Ye who had Cao Guo Feng as his support could not afford to offend him. And that was why he so boldly tried to find trouble for Young Master Jun. From his understanding, even if Cao Guo Feng came looking for a fight, he had his grandfather backing him up, so why would he take Young Master Jun's warnings to heart?
Cao Guo Feng was extremely enraged! Gu Yun Yang who knew he was in the wrong instantly vented all of his anger on his unlucky grandson. In a flash, he slapped Gu Yun Yang heavily across his face with a crisp pa! ”Evil creature! What bullsh*t are you spouting! Hurry up and apologize to Saint Emperor Cao and his disciple!”
This slap was clearly an act of disciplining his grandson. It was loud and clear, but he did not use much strength in it. It was just a form of warning, leaving room for both sides to reconcile.
But what no one had expected was that the hysterical look frozen on Gu Fei Yu's face turned into one that was dull, and his face turned pale. Then, his head tilted back and he spat a mouthful of blood into the air!
Fresh blood scattered down like mist, covering the entire space instantly. Then, he spat another mouth of blood again. It was so intense that it splat onto the ceiling!
Blood poured out of Gu Fei Yu's mouth. His entire body trembled as he swayed unsteadily. Then, he suddenly fell onto the ground heavily, his legs twitching, his mouth still spitting mouthful after mouthful of fresh blood.
He was already unconscious!
Young Master Gu, who was still showing off his might just a moment ago, was now lying on the floor in a precarious state! His life was hanging in the balance!
This sudden change of situation was beyond everyone's expectations. The two old men couldn't be bothered to argue over this; Gu Yun Yang instantly picked up his grandson and checked his pulse. He couldn't help but reveal a look of shock!
The condition of the meridians in Gu Fei Yu's body was unusually odd, flickering between strong and weak. When it was strong, it was hammering about intensely, when it was weak, it could barely be detected. His Qi and blood flow were showing obvious signs of damage, on the verge of having all his blood explode in his body and dying at any moment.
From head to toe, including his upper and lower dantian, all Xuan Qi was messed up and disorderly…
Even someone who had never cultivated Xuan Qi and was on the verge of dying would not have a peculiar symptom that was terrible to this extent!
