Chapter 1656: A Little Tyrant None Dare Provoke
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Who dares touch me?
Gu Luolin’s question echoed throughout the mountain range, but as strutting and arrogant as her words were, the Demon Emperor and his group really were suddenly solemn.
The Gu Family!
To ordinary cultivators, the Divine Mountain’s Holy Lands were far more famous.
Or rather, they weren’t even aware of the Gu Family’s existence.
If you told a random person on the streets, someone who wasn’t yet a ruler, that you were from the Gu Family, they might ignore you completely.
But rulers? They looked up to the Gu Family. At the same time, they felt so much pressure from them that it was downright suffocating.
Who at or above the ruler level dared say they didn’t know of the Gu Family? Although the Gu Family didn’t rule over their own Divine Mountain, who could overlook their existence?
Because the Gu Family had three half-step transcendents!
Above ordinary rulers were imperial kings, imperial lords, and imperial sovereigns.
These were all distinct subdivisions of the ruler level, but at the end of the day, they were all still just rulers.
Half-step transcendents were different. They were on a completely different level.
Although they’d only taken half a step into that realm, most restrictions of the Laws no longer applied to them.
With three half-step transcendents, the Gu Family itself was like a transcendent existence, standing above the rest of the Upper Three Realms.
They didn’t live on any of the Divine Mountains. Instead, they lived in a separate space their three transcendents had carved out for them. In there, their clansmen needn’t face the restrictions of the laws. Both their rate of comprehending the dao and the rate at which their cultivations increased were difficult for those outside to keep up with.
Thus, every member of the Gu Family, whether they were children of the main line or mere serving girls….
Every last one of them was a peerless expert in the outside world!
After becoming a ruler, you had to visit the Gu Family and pay your respects. This wasn’t a rule set by the Gu Family, but to rulers, it was the first mission they had to complete upon breaking through.
Why? Because they didn’t want to provoke the Gu Family, not even their servants.
The King of the South, Jiao Hai, and that demon already didn’t know what to do. Gu Shan, Gu Xuande, and Qing Li were none other than the Gu Family’s three half-step transcendents. This girl wasn’t just the youngest member of the Gu Family; she was their descendent…
The instant she spoke her status out loud, they lost all desire to become her enemy.
“Should I be afraid of you, or should you be afraid of me?” Gu Luolin narrowed her eyes at Kui Lin and Jiao Hai, then laughed. “Demon Emperor Kui Lin, King of the South, Jiao Hai, Head of the Demonic Serpent Clan, Qiu Guang, which of you dares so much as harm a hair on my head? Should you be so bold, you ought to know the consequences.”
What was going on?
Ye Zichen would never have guessed that a few words from Gu Luolin really would scare the Demon Emperor and his cronies like this. He didn’t really understand the Gu Family, but even so, he could discern some hints from their expressions.
Even Tai Tan, who was supposed to be facing Ye Zichen, looked at Gu Luolin, his eyes flickering with fear.
It seemed Gu Luolin really was a trust-fund baby!
After listing just a few names, not even the Demon Emperor dared touch her. And here Ye Zichen thought his backing was impressive. His mom was the Lord of Seven Stars and his aunt was the head of the Profound Pavilion. But it seemed he couldn’t even begin to compete with Gu Luolin.
But he’d forgotten that, should he acknowledge the Gu Family as his own, he’d be one of them too!
“Demon Emperor.” Jiao Hai licked his lips. It seemed he no longer wanted to fight this little princess.
He’d really been intimidated!
It wasn’t that he was a coward. Who wouldn’t have been afraid? If he really hurt her, he’d have to face the Gu Family’s fury. They might very well level his entire nation!
Besides, the Southern Kingdom’s relationship with the Yao Emperor wasn’t harmonious, and they even had thoughts of seceding.
Should the Gu Family arrive, the Yao Emperor was unlikely to attempt to stop them.
More importantly, this little princess was Gu Xuande and Qing Li’s daughter! The daughter of two half-step transcendents! Did he dare hurt her?
He really didn’t!
Qiu Guang of the Demon Serpent’s expression was just like Jiao Hai’s. No clan could withstand the retaliation of the Gu Family.
“Come on! If you’re so tough, hit me! Hit me if you dare!” Gu Luolin landed directly in front of them, glaring and pushing her head towards them. “Come on then! Hit me and see how it feels! Let me tell you now: my dad gave me a jade slip. If you hit me, I’ll shatter it, and he’ll come right over. Don’t think that he can’t just because this is the Transcendent Mausoleum. My dad made thorough preparations before letting me come here. But if you don’t believe me, you’re more than welcome to try me!”
She was fully immersed in her role as a spoiled rich kid throwing a tantrum. Jiao Hai and Qiu Guang meekly shrunk back and dared not retort. Even Kui Lin clenched his fists but dared not attack.
Stifled!
They felt really frickin’ stifled!
He was the glorious Demon Emperor; he ought to have been able to sweep the mausoleum. And yet, he’d run into this little princess.
Ye Zichen was one thing. If Kui Lin really had to fight the Ocean Emperor and his cohort, they wouldn’t be at a disadvantage. But here he’d run into this spoiled brat from the Gu Family of all people. Why had this happened….?
Could it be that trust-fund babies could sense and attract each other? Why had he run into the both of them at once?
“Your Excellency, I think we’d best retreat,” transmitted Jiao Hai. “There’s an eighty percent chance this little brat really is the child of those three half-step transcendents. Although we’ve never seen her before, better safe than sorry. If it turns out she’s telling the truth, we’re not qualified to play with the Gu Family!”
“That’s right, Demon Emperor. Let’s not make trouble for them. Besides, Ye Zichen’s here too. If the Ocean Emperor and his cohorts show up, this’ll be even more troublesome. We’re here in search of transcendent fortune. We can endure this minor indignity for the sake of our goals. Please, consider the big picture!” said Qiu Guang.
Although they made it sound like this was just out of concern for the big picture, Kui Lin could tell they were just afraid.
They really couldn’t bear the weight of the Gu Family’s fury, and they dared not get into trouble with the Gu Family. But he actually couldn’t blame them; even Kui Lin himself felt a hint of fear when she brought up the Gu Family.
He’d visited the Gu Family!
Even if he was the Demon Emperor, he couldn’t compare to the Gu Family. He naturally had to pay them a visit!
And he’d witnessed the Gu Family’s true power himself!
Imperial Kings. That was the level of their servants. Those with even a hint of the Gu Family’s bloodline were all at least imperial lords.
It was fair to say that the Gu Family was an organization of imperial experts led by three half-step transcendents.
Fortunately, the Gu Family had an agreement with the Laws: they wouldn’t appear in the world lightly. Otherwise, the entire Upper Three Realms would have long since been under their domain!
Kui Lin didn’t dare provoke such a faction.
“Don’t act like you’re mute! Where did that earlier viciousness go? What happened to that strength you used to hurt Big White? Come on! If you’re so tough, hit me! You hurt Big White, so why not me? What? Why are you so wimpy? Come on! Fight me!” Gu Luolin cursed them out and glared. Even more infuriatingly, she grabbed Jiao Hai’s hand and swung it towards her own face.
But Jiao Hai really didn’t dare. He cautiously bent at the waist and retreated.
“Afraid? You’re no good either! I gave you the chance to hit me, but you’ve disappointed me!” Gu Luolin narrowed her eyes, then slapped Jiao Hai. “Don’t say I didn’t give you the chance! I told you to fight me, but you chose not to. In that case… bow and apologize to Big White!”
