Chapter 577: Chapter 183: I am Fan Wu from Qiulong Temple! Daoist Priest Fan Strikes the Heart! (10,000-word Mega Chapter for Subscription)_5
...
Meanwhile.
In the Imperial City, within an ordinary residence, the leisurely sound of the guqin had become somewhat chaotic. This indicated that the state of mind of the person playing the instrument... had become disordered alongside the melody.
"Elder, there’s no need to worry. We’ve waited so long and prepared so thoroughly. To achieve today’s actions, we’ve even spent a fortune to bribe countless individuals."
A Sect Disciple of the Blood Gu Sect spoke, "There won’t be any accidents. Besides, those nine individuals combined can summon the Gu god, which makes success almost certain!"
"The Crown Prince of Great Zhou, although he is not a simple character, compared to his father... he doesn’t even measure up to a single hair on his father’s body."
"After so many years of planning and preparation, aren’t we able to deal with such a person?"
Upon saying this, that Sect Disciple of the Blood Gu Sect confidently declared, "It’s absolutely impossible to fail!"
"I think so too, but..." An old woman stopped playing the guqin and said, "After all, my heart is unsettled; our Blood Gu Sect has invested too many resources in this matter."
"Just the Gu gods that are difficult to raise, we’ve already invested in nine... Initially, we were able to prepare ten."
"However, no matter what, the Gu god belonging to another individual couldn’t be raised. The reason is unknown."
The "other individual" the old woman referred to was another Elder of the Blood Gu Sect, the one who died at the hands of Fan Wu.
She did not know that the Blood Gu Sect Elder had already succeeded in raising a Gu god.
It’s just that... the other party had claimed that Gu god as their own.
"If we could have gathered ten Gu gods, then the Gu god summoned by the union of ten persons, even that old Emperor, would have nothing on him, let alone the Crown Prince of Great Zhou." The old woman sighed, who could account for the unexpected changes in plans?
But it was still good, the union of nine Gu gods, although not as strong as ten.
Was not far off either.
"It’s been a long time," the old woman could hear from outside the residence, the faint sounds of commotion, she continued to say, "I wonder how many of our people are left?"
"They all sacrificed their lives for our Gu god, even if none survived, their deaths would be meaningful," the Sect Disciple in front of her said with a face full of adoration and sincerity.
Whenever he mentioned the "Gu god," he would show such an expression and tone.
This indicated how much respect these Sect Disciples of the Blood Gu Sect had for their "Gu god."
Their faith...
Was indeed fanatical!
"Elder! Deacon! It’s terrible! Something awful has happened!" Just then, a strange commotion suddenly arose from outside, and there were sounds of people shouting in alarm.
The residence’s main gate was smashed open by a figure in a black robe, a Sect Disciple of the Blood Gu Sect. This person appeared extremely haggard, with a face full of fear.
As if they had encountered an unprecedented terrifying incident, as if there was some primordial beast chasing after them.
"Silence!" Two individuals inside the residence, one a Blood Gu Sect Elder, the other a Blood Gu Sect Deacon.
The person who uttered the two words "Silence!" was a Deacon of the Blood Gu Sect.
The Deacon was an official position in the Blood Gu Sect.
It was the highest position below the Elders.
The Sect Disciples of the Blood Gu Sect that infiltrated the Great Zhou Imperial City were definitely not just one Deacon.
There were several!
The Deacon from the Blood Gu Sect inside the residence was one of them.
He sternly commanded, "What is this panic? What dignity is this? And to make such loud noises at this time, do you want to disclose our position? Should the strong ones from the Great Zhou Dynasty learn of this place, do you realize the danger you could put the Elder in?"
The horrified Sect Disciple who had rushed in, his face full of panic, said in alarm, "Elder! Deacon! Someone already knows, and they’ve started attacking our doorstep!"
He swallowed hard, seemingly petrified, "And they’re already here, killing their way to us!"
"What?" The pupil of the Blood Gu Sect Deacon contracted, he asked incredulously, "Is that true?"
"It’s true! Extremely true!" The terrified Sect Disciple hurriedly replied, "How dare I deceive the Deacon and Elder? It’s definitely true!"
Just as he finished speaking, something seemed to be thrown from a distance.
Whether it was that Sect Disciple, the Deacon, or the Elder of the Blood Gu Sect.
All of them immediately looked up at the object flying towards them.
Thud!
As the object fell to the ground, blood dyed the floor of the residence red, the crimson liquid at that moment, looked incredibly chilling.
The panic-stricken Sect Disciple’s face showed even greater fear, "It’s... it’s the person who’s attacking us! It’s him! It’s that monster!"
"Calm down!" said the Blood Gu Sect Deacon, glancing at the mutilated corpse on the ground, his expression extremely grim.
