Chapter 588
Chapter 588
As a descendant of the Tyrannical Heavenly Bone, the Gu Clan had always been proud of their clan.
This sense of honor and cohesion had been accumulated over countless years. It could be said that it was one of the Gu Clan's secrets.
Gu Chen's extraordinary performance at the clan gathering, using the Heaven and Earth Projection to suppress the tyrannical grand plan, was not without opposition.
In some people's eyes, it was a provocation to the Gu Clan.
Gu Qingshi's eloquent speech immediately resonated with many disciples. Some of them even realized that this was an opportunity. If they could use this excuse to expel Gu Chen from the list of five, then they would have the opportunity to go to the Immortal Ascension Grand Ceremony!
As a result, Gu Chen was condemned in both word and writing. More young disciples stood up to oppose him. Gu Ziyan and Gu Shenming secretly broke out in a cold sweat for him.
The Clan Leader listened to the crowd and frowned. He could see that Gu Qingshi was just waiting for an opportunity to retaliate.
He was about to scold him when he heard Elder Gu Yuanshan, who was also his uncle, speak.
"Qingshi's words are reasonable. Attending the Immortal Ascension Grand Gathering represents the Gu Clan's face. Gu Chen's strength is indeed so-so among the younger generation. However, considering that he doesn't understand our Gu Clan's magical powers, it is better to replace him with someone else."
Gu Yuanshan said. Many young disciples saw that he was supporting them and immediately protested even more.
"Yuanshan, your words are somewhat inappropriate. Gu Chen won first place in the clan competition not long ago. How can he be so-so? Moreover, according to the rules, whoever has an opinion about him can challenge him. Why do you want to deprive him of his qualifications? "
The Great Elder looked somewhat unhappy.
He immediately understood Gu Yuanshan's true intention. He was the one who added Gu Chen's name to the list. If he were to disappear like this, where would he put his face?
"Great Elder, you misunderstand. I just feel that the Immortal Ascension Grand Gathering should be attended by the purer members of the Gu Clan."
Gu Yuanshan explained and then looked at Gu Chen.
"Gu Chen, you have been wandering outside all year round. There are many things about our clan that you are not familiar with. You should stay in the clan and learn more about them. You can attend the Immortal Ascension Grand Gathering later. Do you think I am right?"
He seemed kind and amiable.
"Elder, you said that my bloodline isn't pure. What do you mean?"
Gu Chen wasn't a naive little boy, how could he not see that Gu Yuanshan was prejudiced against him?
His words were like needles hidden in silk floss. Gu Chen was too lazy to give him face and asked in a cold tone.
"You come from another continent. Although you have the bloodline of my Gu Clan, you have never cultivated the Divine Abilities of my Gu Clan. What I say is not excessive."
Gu Yuanshan saw that Gu Chen did not give him any face, and his eyes turned cold.
Ever since this kid won first place in the family gathering, he had felt a little uneasy.
Back then, he was the one who set up the trap to remove the Dao Shu bloodline from its position as a direct descendant, allowing the Ling Tai bloodline to take over the main family.
Therefore, he was naturally disgusted by any sign of the rise of the Dao Pivot Faction.
"Who said that I don't know the Gu Clan's Theurgy?" Gu Chen smiled coldly.
"Oh? If you know the Gu Clan's Theurgy and are willing to use it to accept the challenge of your cousins, then I naturally have nothing to say. "
"But if you rely on your Heaven and Earth Dharma, winning doesn't prove anything."
Gu Yuanshan's eyes narrowed.
"Isn't that unfair?"
Elder Da's expression changed. He knew that Gu Yuanshan was setting a trap for Gu Chen. He hurriedly opened his mouth to stop him, but he didn't think that Gu Chen had already responded.
"Since Elder says so, today, I will use the Gu Clan's Theurgy to accept the challenge. How about that?"
These words were too impulsive. Gu Yuanshan was immediately overjoyed.
He didn't think that the brat from the Dao Pivot Faction would be so impulsive and use the Gu Clan's Theurgy to fight. Could he do it?
Perhaps he had some good fortune in the ancestral land, or even his Tyrant Bones had been repaired. But the development of Theurgy wasn't something that could be done in a day, and his cousins here were all not weak!
Not using the Heaven and Earth Dharma, not being able to use other spells, in his eyes, Gu Chen's chance of winning was as good as crippling himself!
"This boy is young and impetuous. It will be too late for regrets in the future."
Gu Xuanwu, the clan leader, secretly shook his head. He was neutral and would not side with his uncle. But if Gu Chen took things too hard, he would not protect him either.
This boy was so easily provoked. This kind of temper needed to be tempered. It might not be a bad thing to let him suffer once.
"What an idiot. He's even more stupid than his father."
Gu Zhaixing and Gu Lianyue stood together. Hearing Gu Chen's answer, the corners of their mouths revealed thick disdain.
"What's going on? This boy isn't someone who acts so impulsively."
Gu Lianyue was more familiar with Gu Chen. After being surprised, she quickly revealed a thoughtful look.
In her memory, her cousin Gu Chen was relatively calm and wise. He shouldn't be so impulsive.
If there was anyone present who could understand Gu Chen's current behavior, it would probably be Gu Ziyan and Gu Shenming.
They knew that Gu Chen spent a total of twenty-four days to absorb the Tyrant Martial Origin Jade. It was twice as long as Gu Lianyue did in the past. He must have had an extremely amazing fortune.
But even so, facing the many experts of the Gu clan, his words sounded too risky.
"Gu Chen, have you thought it through? Don't be impulsive. "The Great Elder said worriedly.
"Great Elder, don't worry. Since some people in the clan have doubts about me, it's good to take advantage of this occasion to prove it."
Gu Chen said with a smile.
How could he not see Gu Yuanshan's sinister intentions? But he did not care at all!
As long as he was strong enough, no matter how many schemes he had, it would be useless. In the end, who would be embarrassed!
"Good, good. Gu Chen, your courage is commendable. Since you said so, I will be your first opponent!"
Gu Qingshi walked towards Gu Chen and said with a cold smile.
His eyes vaguely communicated with Ancestor Xuan, who was not far away. He was extremely excited.
Now he had the opportunity to participate in the Immortal Ascension Grand Ceremony!
Without that strange and ever-changing Heaven and Earth Aspect, in his eyes, this Gu Chen was simply trash!
It was simply a joke. He actually wanted to use the Gu clan's divine ability to fight him. In less than ten rounds, he would be able to defeat him!
"Too despicable, Qingshi beat us to it!"
"Sigh, I should have challenged first!"
The other Gu clan disciples who were half a beat slower immediately had faces full of regret. In their eyes, without using the Heaven and Earth Aspect, Gu Chen was very easy to deal with. Challenging him was simply a good thing that fell from the sky.
"Wait."
Gu Chen saw Gu Qingshi eagerly walking towards him and said coldly.
"What? Gu Chen, could it be that you are afraid and want to go back on your words? "
Gu Qingshi immediately said, feeling somewhat nervous.
Gu Chen looked at him, not concealing the contempt in his eyes. His voice spread throughout the plaza.
"That's not it. It's just that you alone are not qualified to be my opponent. Who else wants to challenge me, come at me together!"
