Chapter 1582 - 1446: Illusion Forest (Part 3)
Ye Guichen saw the child’s joyful expression and couldn’t help but become excited himself. He quickly approached Gu Quan’an, launching attacks from all directions.
Gu Quan’an wanted to counterattack, but Ye Guichen was like a slippery eel, impossible to locate, leaving Gu Quan’an momentarily powerless to retaliate.
"This won’t do, I can’t go on like this!" Gu Quan’an thought to himself, and then withdrew, no longer entangling with Ye Guichen.
"Ye, there’s a way to Heaven but you don’t take it, instead you come here to ruin my plans. Since you’re here, you can stay here!" Gu Quan’an said as his shirt suddenly exploded apart. Countless white hairs surged forth from his body as his fingernails abruptly grew longer, staring coldly at Ye Guichen.
"Oh? You’ve actually transformed into a beast’s form?" Ye Guichen was intrigued by Gu Quan’an’s transformation, curious about the Nine Revolutions Dragon Elephant Skill.
Despite this, Ye Guichen’s heart remained undisturbed. He activated his divine movement, rushing swiftly towards Gu Quan’an.
"Boy, you seek death!" At this moment, Gu Quan’an disregarded Ye Guichen entirely, employing the Nine Revolutions Dragon Elephant Skill to concentrate his True Qi into his fist, striking directly at Ye Guichen with a punch that visibly shook the air.
Ye Guichen’s lips curled into a sly smile as he twisted in mid-air, quickly circling behind Gu Quan’an and delivering a kick to Gu Quan’an’s behind.
But Ye Guichen’s kick felt like hitting a steel plate; Gu Quan’an remained unmoved.
Gu Quan’an realized he was being toyed with and flew into a furious rage. He turned, extending his claws to clasp Ye Guichen’s head, intending to crush it with his grip.
Ye Guichen wouldn’t give him the chance. His figure flickered to his original position like a ghost.
Ye Guichen hadn’t anticipated the Nine Revolutions Dragon Elephant Skill could enhance Gu Quan’an’s physique to such an extent, doubling his strength, leaving Ye Guichen secretly amazed.
But soon Ye Guichen thought of a weakness: although his physique was enhanced, Gu Quan’an’s soul power was surely exceedingly weak.
"Destructive God Introduction!"
With this thought, Ye Guichen condensed his soul power into a long sword, shooting it straight into Gu Quan’an’s mind, while also drawing the Immortal Slayer Sword, executing one of the six slashes towards Gu Quan’an’s waist.
Gu Quan’an obviously hadn’t expected Ye Guichen to use a soul attack, panicking inside. He abruptly pulled Gu Cangsheng from beside him, using him as a shield.
Meanwhile, Gu Cangsheng, having just experienced battle and extremely frail, saw himself being grabbed and reacted blankly, thinking Gu Quan’an was playing a game, his face filled with joy.
"Whoosh..." The soul-long sword shot directly into Gu Cangsheng’s mind; his pupils dilated as if struck heavily, fainting directly.
At this time, the Immortal Slayer Sword also swung at Gu Cangsheng. A flash of sword light sliced off one of Gu Quan’an’s legs.
"Ah....."
A heart-wrenching scream echoed in the courtyard.
Gu Quan’an hadn’t expected that even after using the Nine Revolutions Dragon Elephant Skill he’d still be no match for Ye Guichen. Terrified, he lost the courage to confront Ye Guichen.
Ye Guichen sheathed the Immortal Slayer Sword, looking righteously at the crippled Gu Quan’an.
"Mr. Ye, no... Grandpa Ye, please spare me," Gu Quan’an said dejectedly.
The nearby guards, seeing Gu Quan’an defeated, prepared to sneak away.
Uncle Fu waved his hand decisively, killing all the guards present.
Ye Guichen ignored Gu Quan’an, turning slowly towards Uncle Fu.
Gu Quan’an, lying on the ground, showed a glint of malice, pulling out a hair-thin transparent silver needle from his ring. He aimed it rapidly at the back of Ye Guichen’s head.
"Mr. Ye, watch out behind you!" Uncle Fu shouted anxiously at Ye Guichen.
Ye Guichen acted as if he hadn’t heard, calmly walking towards Uncle Fu, when suddenly the silver needle stopped mid-air.
"Ding!"
The silver needle fell to the ground. Meanwhile, a soul needle formed by condensed soul power shot into Gu Quan’an’s mind.
Gu Quan’an’s eyes widened in disbelief, slowly falling down.
Ye Guichen waved his hand, collecting Gu Quan’an’s storage ring.
"It’s over." Ye Guichen walked to Uncle Fu, speaking to him and the children behind him.
"Thank you, Mr. Ye!" Uncle Fu, pulling the two children beside him, attempted to kneel, but Ye Guichen supported him.
"Uncle Fu, you shielded me in your dying moments. What I did was merely eliminating evil for the people." Ye Guichen looked at Uncle Fu, speaking calmly.
"Big brother, please accept me as your disciple!" the boy next to Uncle Fu pleaded resolutely, dropping to his knees before Ye Guichen.
Ye Guichen hadn’t anticipated the situation, momentarily stunned by the boy’s action.
Collecting himself, he spoke to the boy, "Stand up, I don’t take disciples."
The boy heard Ye Guichen’s words, stubbornly persisting, knocking his head thrice, once again saying resolutely, "Please accept me as your disciple."
Ye Guichen saw the boy’s obstinate gaze, feeling a twinge of reluctance, helping the boy up.
He spoke to the boy, "Where I go is extremely dangerous. I can barely protect myself; I don’t have the energy to take a disciple. However, I can teach you a Cultivation Technique. How much you comprehend depends on your own fortune."
