“Go find Old Six! That bastard is purely putting us in a pit!” Ao Qingyun’s expression changed, finally recalling the matter. “That bastard even said ‘the Imperial Throne can be challenged’; yet I lost two top experts just like that! This is simply outrageous!”
The old man smiled bitterly, thinking to himself, you are his competitor. If he doesn’t pit you, who will he pit?
Before he could go look for Ao Fengyun, Ao Fengyun had already come looking for him.
“Third Brother, how is it? That kid is quite difficult to deal with, isn’t he?” Ao Fengyun, dressed in white and looking handsome, said, and then immediately noticed the two corpses. His eyelids jumped: “W-What… what happened? Didn’t I remind you? How could there still be such unnecessary casualties?”
Ao Qingyun's forehead throbbed with veins: “Old Six, you… you are too despicable, aren’t you?! What was that reminder? That was purely a trap, alright?”
Ao Fengyun’s expression changed: “Third Brother, there is no need to say such things. I kindly reminded you, yet you seem to be blaming me?”
Ao Qingyun snorted, about to speak, but was stopped by the old man behind him; the two brothers exchanged glances and each huffed angrily through their nostrils.
“What do you plan to do about the Gu Family?” Ao Fengyun, seeing that the situation was not good, humbly asked.
“I naturally have my plans.” Ao Qingyun replied irritably.
“Does Third Brother mean that he wants to break up with me?” Ao Fengyun narrowed his eyes: “Third Brother, cooperation benefits both; discord leads to both suffering. You wouldn’t be unaware of this. We are brothers after all. Why ruin the harmony over a trivial matter?”
Ao Qingyun snorted again, contemplating that among the six people who had come out this time, he and his brother were the weakest in terms of foundation. It would indeed be inappropriate to separate now. He had no choice but to hold his nose and agree.
“The Gu Family still has its weaknesses, which is insufficient foundation. Relying solely on Gu Duxing, a single sword emperor, cannot sustain them.” Ao Qingyun exhaled gloomily: “I believe that our plan to restrain Gu Duxing is already unfeasible. We should target the Gu Family instead and threaten Gu Duxing; that is the best strategy.”
“Third Brother truly is wise, what a brilliant plan!” Ao Fengyun praised greatly: “In that case, we should not delay, and immediately head towards the Gu Family.”
“Let’s go!”
The two groups mixed together and set off simultaneously.
However, the words exchanged by the two made the several Imperial Thrones following them feel a bit cold inside.
Why must harmony be broken over such trivial matters?
Do the lives of two Imperial Thrones, three Royal Thrones, and five loyal souls merely count as trivial matters in your eyes?
…………
Gu Duxing flew away like a whirlwind, but he secretly heightened his vigilance: It seems that the current matter—celestial literature—has gotten a bit out of control.
The original plan to use the Ao Family’s military power against the Tian Family, Li Family, and Tu Family… has clearly deviated from the established direction!
After the Ao Family emerged, not only did they not immediately start attacking those families, but instead began vying for supremacy in the martial arts world? It seems that among the brothers, they are also calculating against each other!
The emergence of such a situation was indeed unexpected!
What would Chu Yang think about this when he learns of the situation?
However, the current priority is that these two young masters of the Ao Family clearly have their eyes on the Gu Family… we must first get through this hurdle.
But how do we get through this hurdle?
Gu Duxing flew along, brainstorming.
The Gu Family is too weak; a direct clash cannot afford to offend the Ao Family! Moreover, this contradicts Chu Yang’s established plans. If I were to get into a deadlock with these two young brats… it would only cause pain for the allies and pleasure for the enemies, unwittingly aiding Tu Qianhao and others!
