Chapter 38
Rumble!
Suddenly, a bolt of green lightning fell from the sky, tearing through the fog at the top of the mountain, and struck Wu Mo at lightning speed!
Wu Mo's body froze for a moment, and the bound Gu Chen fell to the ground.
"How … how could this be?"
In an instant, her breathing became weak, and blood flowed out of her seven orifices. All of her internal organs had been turned to mush by that bolt of lightning.
In the last moments of her life, her pupils dilated, and she saw a white-haired figure falling from the sky.
"It's you … damn it, just one step, just one step, just one step, I could …"
Her eyes were filled with unwillingness, and her body fell to the ground. Her skin was charred black, and there was no sign of life.
"Elder Nangong?"
Gu Chen crawled up from the ground, and looked at the old man in shock.
He had been on the brink of death, and he did not expect that the person to save him would be Elder Nangong, who he had barely spoken to.
"I didn't expect him to act so quickly."
Elder Nangong glanced at the three corpses in the Rising Dragon Pond and sighed.
"There's no time to lose. Go with the Old Man."
He looked at Gu Chen and said.
"Where to?"
Gu Chen's mind was still in a mess, and there were many questions he wanted to ask.
"I'll tell you everything you want to know. Leave the Wuchen Sect now. It won't be long before they come over! "
Gu Chen wanted to ask who they were, but Elder Nangong grabbed his shoulder and took him into the sky.
Ye Qingshuang was left alone, staring at the corpses on the ground in a daze.
"What on earth happened?"
…
Elder Nangong rode on a cloud high up in the sky, hurrying along with Gu Chen.
Gu Chen was very surprised. He knew that Elder Nangong was strong, but he did not expect him to be this strong.
Wu Mo from the True Martial Academy was not a simple person, and none of the elders in the sect were a match for her. Yet, Elder Nangong killed such an enemy in an instant!
There were too many questions in Gu Chen's mind at the moment, especially when Wu Mo mentioned the Tyrannical Ether Bone.
If it was really as he said, who knew how many people would target him in the future.
Gu Chen's thoughts were in a mess. He looked down and was shocked. "This direction, don't tell me we're returning to Tian Nan City?"
Elder Nan Gong brought Gu Chen back to his home. In less than the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn, Gu Chen landed in his own courtyard.
"Let's go!"
As soon as he landed, Elder Nangong strode towards Gu Chen's father's study room.
It was already late at night, but the light in the study was still on.
Gu Chen followed with a belly full of doubts. Before he reached the door, the door of the study opened.
When Shen Yu Shu opened the door and saw Gu Chen and Elder Nan Gong, his face became solemn.
"Already exposed?"
"It's been exposed."
Elder Nan Gong nodded.
The three of them entered the house and closed the door. Gu Chen saw his mother's serious face and could not help but ask. "Mother, what's going on?"
Shen Yu Shu could not help but pat Gu Chen's head, his eyes shining with love.
"Chen 'er, now that things have come to this, it's time to tell you about your father and grandfather."
"My father and grandfather?"
Gu Chen was stunned. His father had mysteriously disappeared two years ago. He had always wanted to know the truth, but his mother had never mentioned it.
As for his grandfather, he only knew that his name was Gu Yuan. He had never seen him since he was born, so he had no impression of him at all.
"It's a long story. Uncle, you and my father-in-law are old friends, so you should tell him. "
Shen Yu Shu looked at Elder Nan Gong, whose real name was Nan Gong Zheng.
Elder Nan Gong nodded, "This matter is too troublesome to explain. The Old Man used his thoughts to draw, so show him directly!"
As he spoke, he pointed his finger at Gu Chen's forehead. Gu Chen subconsciously closed his eyes, and many pictures appeared in his mind.
In the picture, a man who looked somewhat similar to Gu Chen appeared. He was about twenty years old, and he had a heroic appearance and an imposing appearance. He was talking cheerfully and wittily with a group of people.
In this group of people, other than the man who looked similar to Gu Chen, there were three more people who were more conspicuous.
One of them was a young and beautiful woman. She had been pregnant for many months and seemed to be husband and wife with the man who looked similar to Gu Chen.
The man often looked at her belly with a gentle and doting gaze, looking forward to the birth of the child in her belly.
The other two were conspicuous men. One was similar to Elder Nan Gong, but much younger. It should be him.
The other person had a pair of strange red pupils, and his figure was thin and weak.
This group of people had a harmonious relationship. They trained together, participated in the competition together, and forged a deep friendship.
Until one day, when everyone was in a life-and-death crisis, the man who looked similar to Gu Chen had a glowing golden bone in his body. Then, he turned the tide and saved everyone.
When Gu Chen saw this, his body trembled. Tyrannical Ether Bone!
The golden bone was clearly the same as the one in his body. It was definitely the Tyrannical Ether Bone.
It was rumored that some special constitutions could be inherited. Considering that the man looked so similar to him, his identity was self-evident.
It was his grandfather. That was his grandfather!
In that case, the pregnant woman was his grandmother.
His father had no brothers, so the child in her belly was obviously his father!
The picture changed to another place. A group of brothers were out of danger, but his grandfather and grandmother were actually being chased!
The leader of the people chasing after them was the young man with red eyes, the good brother of his grandfather!
"What's going on?"
Before Gu Chen could think, the picture changed again. He saw that his grandfather was already trapped in a prison.
The red-eyed young man stood in front of him, smiling ferociously. His eyes were filled with greed.
The way he looked at Gu Chen reminded Gu Chen of Wu Mo that night.
Following that, a shocking scene appeared. The red-eyed young man had forcefully dug out the Tyrannical Ether Bone from his grandfather's chest!
Blood and flesh were badly mutilated, and the act was cruel. The scene shattered at this moment!
In the pouring rain, Gu Yuan's wife, who had been hiding from the pursuers, gave birth to Gu Chen's father, Gu Tianming, in a rundown temple.
The child was fatherless when he was born. Later, the weak woman traveled thousands of miles alone and came to Eastern Wilderness.
However, a few years later, the woman fell ill from overwork. Coupled with her longing for her late husband, she passed away early, leaving Gu Tianming as an orphan.
Seeing this, Gu Chen's eyes turned red. When he was young, he had heard his father say that his childhood had been very hard. He had not expected it to be like this.
The last scene stopped when the much older Elder Nangong reappeared in front of his father. No one knew what they talked about, but the picture disappeared.
When Gu Chen opened his eyes, they were red.
He had never known that there was such a deep hatred in his family. His grandfather had died tragically, his grandmother had passed away with regret, and his father had become an orphan!
"Mother, did the disappearance of father two years ago have anything to do with what happened to grandfather?"
Gu Chen raised his head and looked at his mother, his eyes filled with anger.
