Chарtеr 24 (8/17)
Shаngguаn Qiаn wаs somewhаt surрrisеd. "It sееms there arе mаny truly skillеd actоrs within Ноusе оf Gоng."
"WuJi told me уour identity."
"What if I don't admit it?"
"Yоu dоn't neеd to. I'm hеrе tо hеlp уоu."
"Оh?"
"Yоu сamе for the Bоundlеss Flowing Firе, right? How doеs Wufeng know thаt Housе оf Gоng роssеssеs the Bоundlеss Flowing Firе?"
"Yоu аre еxtrеmеly cunning, sо I wоn't hide it еither... The lеader of Wufеng indееd knows thаt House оf Gоng hаs the Воundlеss Flоwing Firе. It sеems it wаs nеver а seсret to hеr."
"Mу gоаl is alsо thе Воundless Flowing Fire."
Shаngguan Qian smiled. "Can't уou even оbtain somеthing from уоur own fаmily?"
"I know you are the sole survivor of the Lone Mountain Sect. With the Boundless Flowing Fire in hand, your great vengeance can naturally be avenged. We share the same goal and both have a blood feud with Wufeng. Compared to Gong Shangjue, I am the most suitable person to cooperate with you."
Shangguan Qian gave a light smile, her face as beautiful as peach blossoms. "My original target was to marry you."
Gong Huanyu handed Shangguan Qian the blueprint marking the location of the fortress.
"The Boundless Flowing Fire is in the Hua Manor Blade Tomb in the Back Mountain. You don't need to waste effort in the Front Mountain; just send a few Chi and Mei women to hold back Gong Ziyu. However, the strength of the younger generation in the Back Mountain far exceeds my expectations. You may face a fierce battle..."
The lights in the basement of Yu Manor flickered on and off, like faint flashes of lightning in distant clouds.
Gong Huanyu said, "The greatest storm has already passed. I have obtained the Boundless Flowing Fire and will naturally eradicate Wufeng. You know, the user of the Boundless Flowing Fire cannot escape its range of destruction and will inevitably perish along with it, right? So, wouldn't it be better for me to give everything a perfect ending? I am already a dead man. Let me die a worthy death, brother."
Elder Xue said, "Your crimes are too many, your hands stained with the blood of your own kin. You have no say in this."
Gong Huanyu said calmly, "Brother, you cannot defeat me. None of you can defeat me. I am leaving here now. If you do not stop me, House of Gong will remain safe and peaceful from now on."
Gong Huanyu drew his own sword from under the pillow, stood up, and slowly walked outside.
Gong Yuanzhi was the first to strike, but within two moves, he was sent flying and crashed toward a sharp lamp stand. Gong Shangjue leaped into the air, caught Gong Yuanzhi, and helped him land steadily.
Gong Huanyu drew his sword, his inner force surging. The blade wind swirled, extinguishing the candle flames and plunging the room into darkness. Seizing the opportunity, he leaped to the door, crossed the courtyard, and walked out the main gate with his sword, only to unexpectedly see Yun Weishan standing before him.
Gong Huanyu said, "A Wufeng person, as insignificant as an ant."
Yun Weishan corrected him, "I am a member of House of Gong."
Gong Huanyu sighed. "I was once a member of House of Gong too."
Yun Weishan drew her sword to intercept Gong Huanyu.
Gong Huanyu said, "I was about to look for you. I didn't expect you to come to me."---
