Chapter 764 410: The Contention for the Famous Artifact—Only the Strong Deserve to Own Lei Ying!
Gu Dile, riding the speed of his twin pigtails, was incredibly fast, so fast that he was making history.
From Tianzhou to Yun State, even the Sect Leader of the Thousand Miles Capital City Sect, who was famous for leg skills, would need ten days to half a month to arrive.
But Gu Dile only needed six days.
Every step he takes now is a giant leap for the Martial World.
Because his Ten Break Ancient Strength is invincible!
The rotating pink twin pigtails atop his head now can be said to be the most formidable weapon in the world, bar none.
They will be stained with Old Demon Duan's blood and life, becoming stepping stones to his pinnacle.
On the fifth day, Gu Dile arrived in Yu State and stopped.
He wasn't waiting for his subordinates, he didn't need them to kill Old Demon Duan; he was waiting for momentum.
The news of his crossing four states in five days had spread, but not widely enough, not yet known to all under heaven.
The Gu Family had been hidden behind the scenes for too long, it was time for the world to remember its terrifyingness, especially challengers like Old Demon Duan, who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
It must be said, the effect of Gu Dile crossing several states at high speed was excellent, with the shouts of Gu Family trumpets and the Bloodthirsty Storyteller, it can be said that half of the Martial World was stirred.
Gu Family trumpets and the Bloodthirsty Storyteller naturally extolled Gu Dile to the skies, calling it the speed of a god, unrivaled, while the Jianghu people debated animatedly.
"This Gu Family Young Master delivering goods, isn't it profitable to the point of tears?"
"Definitely, ten horses couldn't catch up with that speed, a naturally gifted delivery Sacred Body."
"Nonsense, only you lowly people would think of delivering goods, it's as laughable as an emperor digging with a gold hoe."
"Doesn't the emperor use a gold hoe to dig?"
"I know this one, that year Jiu Zhou had a great disaster, the late emperor once encouraged the people to work hard on farming, so that they could pay the grain taxes after harvesting, he personally displayed imperial farming using a gold hoe."
...
Outside Wangchun City, the Old Demon Victims' Alliance quickly reached a consensus, electing Hong Hong, the Great Elder of the Red House, as the leader to go to Yu State to find the Gu Family Young Master for alliance.
They seemed quite excited, only sighing that heaven finally had eyes, and that Old Demon Duan would eventually suffer a great blow.
It can only be said that the previous Demon Slaying Conference failed because they did not unite together.
Now the victims' alliance was numerous, and they were prominent sects in the Martial World, with the added strength of the Gu Family Young Master, who had completed his Divine Skill, by what means could Old Demon Duan fight with them?
"He doesn't have that ability, you know? Do you really think he has three heads and six arms?"
One White Socks mocked.
In their eyes, once the alliance was formed, Old Demon Duan could only wait for death.
"This is called 'many unvirtuous deeds bring about self-destruction', who told him to offend so many people and make such a big fuss, even daring to capture the number one treasure of Tianzhou, the Gu Family lady."
The group of victims grew more enthusiastic as they talked, and in just a few days, they had become close friends due to their similar experiences.
But Hong Hong, the Great Elder of the Red House, broadened her heart to seek the Gu Family alliance, but quickly returned nearly unclothed.
Red House's Qinggong was unique, and Yun State and Yu State were neighboring, so returning so quickly was reasonable.
But the result obtained by the Old Demon Victims' Alliance was not satisfactory.
No other reason, the Gu Family Young Master refused them.
The Gu Family Young Master said bluntly to their face, "What is your status, to negotiate an alliance with me? Is your Tower Master dead?"
Then, the Gu Family Young Master further boldly declared, "With my skills now, even if one hand holds Wangchun City, the other backs against Qingcheng Mountain, I can still easily kill Old Demon Duan, what need is there to ally with a bunch of defeated opponents?"
Hong Hong, the Great Elder of the Red House, initially wanted to retort, "As if your Gu Family wasn't a bunch of defeated opponents? And who knows how many times your lady was played with by Old Demon Duan.", but ultimately didn't speak.
Because she could feel Gu Dile's overwhelming presence, one slip of the tongue could invite death.
Secondly, her status was indeed vastly different from that of Gu Dile.
In terms of Jianghu status, it indeed required the Tower Master to be able to match the Gu Family Young Master, their disdain was quite normal.
In this world, the humiliation of lower status by the higher is a natural order.
This alliance, missing the strongest Gu Family Young Master, plunged everyone into a deadlock instantly.
White Socks scratched the leg hair visible through his socks and asked, "The Gu Family Young Master doesn't want to ally, so what do we do?"
Hong Hong, the Great Elder of the Red House, pondered, "Even if he doesn't want to ally, our goal remains the same, to make Old Demon Duan die. He'll fight his fight; we'll fight ours."
"So how should we fight?"
"With the Gu Family Young Master so overwhelmingly bold, I see a great chance that the Old Demon will be beaten to death; even if not dead, he will be gravely injured, then we all swarm upon him, how could he survive?"
"Old Demon gravely injured, gravely injured Old Demon..."
The group mumbled this phrase, their expressions odd.
The phrase "Old Demon gravely injured" had become tiresome to their ears, and it often ended with someone else's death, which they were also tired of hearing.
The term had become like a curse, not a good omen, and this gave them pause.
This pause made everyone want to shield themselves behind one another, making it difficult for the Old Demon Victims' Alliance to kill the Old Demon.
The truth of the matter was that their leaders lacked motivation.
If it were the Red House Tower Master, the new Sect Leader of Thunder God and Mother, the Sect Hierarch of White Sock Divine Sect, or the Great Manor Master of Netherworld Mountain Villa discussing the alliance, it might have succeeded.
All the experts in the Martial World had lofty pride, considering those above them as equals, and those below strictly subservient; with others having just mastered their Divine Skill, not wanting to bring you along is perfectly normal.
