Stronger by Killing

In this moment,

those from the various sects hiding in the shadows and watching were somewhat disappointed.

They hadn’t expected Wei Zi’ang to pull such a move,

what they were hoping for was that Wei Zi’ang would risk everything and have the high-ranking members of his sect escape with the inheritance, taking as much as they could, so they could seize the opportunity.

But now,

these things have fallen into Gu Zhan’s hands, who would dare to snatch them,

if they could snatch these things from Gu Zhan, why not directly seize Gu Zhan’s Method of Divine Sight, which is the greatest opportunity in the Martial World today.

"A proper burial!" Gu Zhan pondered for a moment and ordered.

"Yes!"

Immediately, a team of Beidou Bang disciples stepped forward to handle the bodies.

Gu Zhan waved his hand slightly, leading his men up the mountain.

...

The Beidou Bang took over Sword King City smoothly,

the disciples of Sword King City did not resist, they complied with all the requests of the Beidou Bang and then left one after another without causing any disturbance.

Walking into the main hall of Sword King City, seeing the statue of the Taoist Ancestor enshrined there, Gu Zhan felt a bit sentimental.

This should be the most peaceful time he has breached a mountain gate since he entered the Martial World. In the past, whether large or small sects or gangs, each time it was a bloody affair, filled with cries of lamentation,

but this time, it was so calm and peaceful,

for a moment, it was somewhat unfamiliar.

Sitting at the big hall entrance,

watching the mist swirling around, the verdant mountains and serene valleys, dotted with pavilions and towers, waterfalls flowing, cranes dancing, lively and natural, truly an excellent place.

Just then, Gai Qingcheng walked over with a book in hand and said, "Marquis, Wei Zi’ang indeed left all the inheritance and resources of Sword King City behind, including those Divine Techniques and Martial Arts Secret Manuals, none of them have been touched."

Gu Zhan nodded and said, "I had known Wei Zi’ang from before, his actions today were somewhat unexpected to me, I didn’t expect him to have such boldness?"

Gai Qingcheng sighed and said, "People are always complicated." With that, Gai Qingcheng handed the book to Gu Zhan and said, "This is Wei Wuya’s notebook, recording his plan to replace Spiritual Qi with Demonic Qi, it is indeed stunning, if this thing were to fall into the wild, it would likely cause an upheaval in the Martial Arts, even Grotto Heaven Level forces would find it hard to remain calm."

Gu Zhan took the notebook and flipped through it, saying, "This is indeed novel and bold, Wei Wuya can indeed be called a hero."

Gai Qingcheng said softly, "If it weren’t for you, Marquis, Wei Wuya might have truly led Sword King City to become the third Martial Arts Holy Land of the Xia Kingdom, even the two Buddhist Sects might have to avoid its edge."

Gu Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Have the Grotto Heaven Inheritance been found?"

Gai Qingcheng chuckled softly and said, "Yes, Wei Zi’ang didn’t lie, regarding the method of Grotto Heaven Inheritance, it is indeed recorded in this notebook, it’s a stone wall known as the Infinite Jade Pendant, at the back mountain, where the Elder Celestial Master always resided."

Gu Zhan stood up and said, "Then let’s go to the back mountain to have a look."

With that, Gu Zhan grasped Gai Qingcheng’s shoulder, took a step, and transformed into a stream of light, flying towards the hundred-zhang high peak, and soon saw a flat open area on the back side of the mountain peak, with a grass hut at the center.

The two of them descended from the sky, landing in front of the grass hut.

Upon landing, Gu Zhan immediately felt a swirl of Spiritual Qi, and this place seemed like another world, the vegetation was much more lush, surrounded by towering peaks, uneven, like giant swords encircling.

Gu Zhan glanced around and didn’t see a stone wall that matched the Infinite Jade Pendant. After all, they were on the mountain, so there were many stone walls, but they all looked ordinary, with nothing special about them.

Instead, Gai Qingcheng after looking around, locked her gaze onto a mountain peak directly across the grass hut, it was a towering cliff, like a giant sword standing between heaven and earth.

Gu Zhan asked in surprise, "Miss Gu Qi, do you think that mountain might be the Grotto Heaven Inheritance?"
