Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains

Chapter 173: 120, Sacred Land Successor, kill as ordered without error

Gu Chenfeng's chest heaved uncontrollably, his anger having reached its limit.

Since his defeat at the hands of Sikong Yue last year, the doubts within the Holy Sect about him had never ceased, and he had been holding back his frustration for more than half a year.

If it were just doubts, it might have been bearable, but the key issue was that the true successors below him were now eyeing his position as the Sword God covetously.

Although he had acted with the force of thunder to eliminate some of the threats, once doubts arose, they were hard to completely eradicate.

This skepticism had kept him from a good night's sleep for six months. Now, Hou Yuxiao's words "useless trash" undoubtedly ignited the powder keg in his heart, causing all his pent-up rage to explode at that moment.

"Go to hell!"

With a low roar, Gu Chenfeng's pupils tightened as he drew the Qingyu Peak from his waist, transforming himself and the sword into a dazzling white light that streaked across the night sky, aiming directly at Hou Yuxiao's face.

The sword edge slashed over a hundred meters, its True Qi sharp beyond compare, instantly cutting any thick tree it encountered into two.

"Defeating Chen Yuhe and Liu Fufeng, those incompetents, made you really think you were somebody? Today, you will surely die!"

Under his mask, Hou Yuxiao's expression became exceedingly solemn. As the sword edge bore down on his face, he didn't even have the time to pay heed to Gu Chenfeng's words. The True Qi within him gushed forth; he pulled out the Ape Demon Staff behind him and exerted his strength in both hands, his Mysterious Demon True Qi instantly seeping into the staff, he performed a mighty downward split, colliding fiercely with the Qingyu Peak.

Whoom...

As the two Grandmasters' True Qi clashed, a terrifying shockwave was instantly generated, spreading out over a hundred meters and instantly toppling numerous trees around them, the ground shook violently kicking up a huge cloud of dust and sand.

"An ant shaking a tree, overestimating your abilities!"

Seeing Hou Yuxiao so close, Gu Chenfeng suddenly sneered, his pupils shooting out two terrifying strands of Sword Qi, like arrows aiming straight for his forehead.

Sword Heart Sacred Pupil!

Seeing the two strands of Sword Qi Pupil Light coming towards him, Hou Yuxiao immediately recalled Gu Chenfeng's reputation, and instinctively tried to withdraw the Ape Demon Staff to avoid the sharp edge.

Crack...

"Idiot, do you really think you can stand equal with me?"

First a cracking sound entered his ears, followed by Gu Chenfeng's sneering laugh, which suddenly made his face stiffen. Looking up, he saw about two feet of the staff fly past in front of his eyes, revealing a trace of astonishment.

The Ape Demon Staff had actually been chopped in half by Gu Chenfeng's Longsword!

The Qingyu Peak, it was a Spiritual Artifact.

Seeing the sinister smile on Gu Chenfeng's face, Hou Yuxiao's solemnity deepened to the extreme. He suddenly realized that the Gu Chenfeng in front of him was far from ordinary rivals like Chen Yuhe and Liu Fufeng.

Not only was he a Sacred Land Successor, but he had also fought against Sikong Yue. Although he had lost, it was enough to prove that his talent and strength were undoubtedly not weak.

A strong sense of crisis surged over him. Hou Yuxiao took a deep breath, put aside the confidence born from his recent surge in power, pulled back the remaining part of the Ape Demon Staff, gathered his True Qi, and ducked downward.

The Sword Qi from Qingyu Peak flew over his head, and though it missed its target, it still slashed a dazzling sword mark over a hundred meters long in the night sky, adding a wound that possessed a deadly, entrancing beauty.

Gu Chenfeng saw his Sword Qi dodge, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes, but before he could regain his composure, a long staff was already rushing up from below, causing his expression to change slightly.

This is the advantage of staff weapons; as long as the break is not too long, the remaining part can still be effectively used.

Hou Yuxiao muttered to himself, gripping the staff with both hands, his legs filled with True Qi, he soared into the air with a horizontal sweep that sent out a crescent-shaped black wave howling forward.

Gu Chenfeng's facial expression changed only for an instant, sensing that the black horizontal wave was merely a casual strike from Hou Yuxiao. A scornful smile even formed on his lips. He didn't even bother to dodge, instead raising the Qingyu Peak to block it in the middle.

The crescent wave collided with the Qingyu Peak's blade, not only causing no damage to Gu Chenfeng but even making the sword's blade emit a stronger cold light.

"Qing Jade as the blade, the more force it meets, the sharper it becomes. This is the might of a Spiritual Artifact. The greater the force used against it, the sharper my blade will be. What can this fool use to fight me!"

Gu Chenfeng thought to himself, the disdain in his eyes intensifying. Just as he was about to speak mockingly, what came toward him was Hou Yuxiao, lunging through the air.

At that moment, Hou Yuxiao's entire body's Mysterious Demon True Qi concentrated to its peak, emanating an ancient and profound staff technique from within him. In an instant, he seemed to truly transform into an Ancient Ape Demon, his aura entwining around his body, with the staff in his hands cleaving downward through the air.

A black dragon, with gaping fangs and claws, seemed to coil under the long staff, and with Hou Yuxiao's split, the black dragon, carrying an endless staff technique, suddenly burst forth.

That ordinary horizontal sweep was just a feint; this black dragon was the opponent's true contingency...

Although the thought flashed through Gu Chenfeng's mind, his face showed only a trace of solemnity. He immediately positioned the Qingyu Peak in front of him, then his pupils tightened, and two strands of Sword Qi shot out first, meeting the black dragon head-on.

As the name implies, Sword Heart Sacred Pupil refers to his eyes. The more sword techniques he practiced, the stronger the Sword Qi in these Sacred Pupils would become.

Up to now, he had practiced more than a dozen sword techniques. The Sword Heart Pupil Light he exerted was now as powerful as a fully developed Earth Level Martial Arts.
