Gui Muâs gaze was fixed on Xue Tu as he muttered to himself, his eyes flashing with frenzy and excitement.
"Take her away," Gui Muâs eyes swept towards Qin Yuru, who was hiding beside a pillar in the distance, and immediately, the Demon Palace expert of the Saint Realm Sixth Layer charged towards her.
Seeing this, Xue Tuâs face darkened, and he was about to rush over when Gui Mu waved his hand, and a powerful surge of True Yuan strength struck him, sending him flying and crashing heavily into the ground, coughing up fresh blood.
"Xue Tu!"
Watching Xue Tu spit out blood, Qin Yuru hurriedly called out, but she was dragged away from the place by the Demon Palace expert.
"Madam!"
Xue Tu tried to force himself up despite his internal injuries but couldnât stand; his body had suffered extremely serious damage, and it was already lucky he wasnât dead.
"Tell Ye Luo to bring Lin Xiaoyan from his villa to the Gongsun Family, and donât notify anyone else; otherwise, he should get ready to see the corpses of his wife and unborn son."
Gui Mu left these words behind, carrying away the other two injured Demon Palace individuals, and swiftly left the scene. Xue Tu, his eyes filled with unwillingness, was powerless to do anything.
Several minutes after Gui Mu left, a car quickly appeared in the underground parking lot, stopping beside Xue Tu. Ye Luo and Feng Tian dashed out of the car.
"Xue Tu, how are you?"
Ye Luo rushed to Xue Tuâs side, checking his body, his face changing color as he quickly took out an elixir and administered it to him.
After taking the healing elixir, Xue Tuâs breath gradually recovered, and the injuries inside his body temporarily stabilized.
"Young Master!" Xue Tu looked up at Ye Luo and called out.
"What on earth is going on, where is Yu Ru?" Ye Luo asked urgently, his face full of concern. His Clairvoyant Eye had already scanned the entire Qin Group, and he hadnât found Qin Yuru; with Xue Tu in such a state, clearly, the other party had encountered danger.
"Young Master, I am useless, I failed to protect Madam," said Xue Tu, his eyes filled with a guilty expression.
"Donât talk about that now. Who hurt you, and where is Yu Ru?" Ye Luo asked with some urgency.
"It was the Demon Palaceâs people who attacked me, and it was they who took Madam away," Xue Tu quickly explained.
"Demon Palace!"
Both Ye Luo and Feng Tianâs expressions changed.
"The Demon Palace has emerged again?"
Feng Tianâs face was somewhat grave as he spoke. Previously being the Young Master of the Sword Sect, he naturally understood this one of the four major forces of the Demonic Path.
"Why on earth would the Demon Palace take Yu Ru?" Ye Luo frowned deeply, his eyes filled with confusion.
"Not sure, but they want you, Young Master, to bring Miss Xiaoyan to the Gongsun Family; otherwise, they will kill Madam!" Xue Tu said gravely.
Immediately upon hearing this, Ye Luoâs face turned cold, and his eyes flashed with anger and killing intent.
"The Gongsun Family, it turns out they were in cahoots with the Demon Palace. Unforgivable!"
Ye Luo spoke coldly, his body radiating an icy murderous aura.
"Donât panic yet," Feng Tian said with a solemn face. "Since theyâve taken Miss Lin Xiaoyan with them, they must have some plot in mind and wonât easily harm Miss Qin. What we need to do now is find a way to save Miss Qin!"
"Iâm going to the Gongsun Family, no matter what I must save Yu Ru," said Ye Luo, his expression extremely cold.
"If the Gongsun Family has masters from the Demon Palace, you wonât be able to save Miss Qin by going there like this. Even with me, the hope is slim. If they have a Hua Yuan Realm expert, we only have a one-way road to death."
Feng Tian spoke, looking at Ye Luo.
"Take this Token to the address I mentioned and find Elder Shi, have him contact the War Godâs team to go to the Gongsun Family and deal with the people from the Demon Palace."
Ye Luo took out the War Order that War Wolf had given him earlier and handed it directly to Feng Tian.
"This... then you..." Feng Tian looked at Ye Luo hesitantly.
"I must head to the Gongsun Family first!" Ye Luoâs eyes glistened with a cold light.
"Youâre crazy; going alone is a death sentence," Feng Tianâs complexion changed instantly.
"Young Master!" Even Xue Tu quickly spoke up when he saw Ye Luo.
Determination flashed in Ye Luoâs eyes as he said, "Enough, no more words. Iâve made up my mind. No matter what, I canât let anything happen to Yu Ru. Xue Tu, go back to the villa for now and donât tell anyone else about this."
Having said this, Ye Luo prepared to rush off to the Gongsun Family.
"You better not die, kid. Hold on until we arrive!" Feng Tian said, looking at Ye Luo, his eyes shimmering with a complex light.
"Donât worry, I wonât die that easily." A smile appeared on Ye Luoâs face as he turned and entered the car, speeding away from the place.
However, not long after driving off, Ye Luo realized he had never been to the Gongsun Family, so he had no idea where it was.
In the end, he had no choice but to make a call to Leng Ruobing to inquire about the location of the Gongsun Family. As to what he was going there for, he didnât tell Leng Ruobing to avoid worrying her.
Inside the Gongsun Family, an oppressive and heavy atmosphere filled the air, with groups of Demon Soldiers dressed in black armor and wielding black scimitars standing around. These Demon Soldiers had sharp, cold eyes and exuded a terrifying aura, imposing a heavy and oppressive presence.
In the Gongsun Familyâs great hall, Gui Mu sat in the seat of honor, dressed in a black robe, while a black-robed Demon Envoy wearing a black skeleton mask sat beside him. Additionally, eight experts from the Demon Palace, oozing with thick Demonic Qi, stood around them.
As for Situ Lie, the Family Head of the Situ Family, he stood bowing beside Gui Mu, his forehead beaded with cold sweat, his eyes flickering with an extremely unsightly expression.
"Family Head Gongsun, how is it? Do you have anything to say? Perhaps you are shocked by my identity?" Gui Mu quietly sipped his tea, his gaze sweeping towards Situ Lie.
"Master Gui Mu, indeed, I never imagined you would be a person from the Demon Palace!" Gongsun Lieâs gaze flickered as he looked at Gui Mu, his expression extremely complex.
"Gongsun Lie, your Gongsun Family now has only one way out, and that is to become slaves of the Demon Palace. Once we control all of Huaxia, your Gongsun Family will surely become the number one family in Huaxia. Otherwise, you should be well aware of the consequences..."
The sentence was spoken in a chilling voice by the skeleton-masked Demon Envoy, his tone carrying a terrifying hint of murderous intent.
Gongsun Lie felt his whole body enveloped by a dreadful killing intent, trembling slightly, his face showing a trace of fear, yet his heart was torn.
Although Gongsun Lie had great ambitions, he had never considered becoming a man of the Demon Palace. If this were revealed, he feared the entire Gongsun Family would not survive.
