Reverend Insanity: Dream Gu

Seeing the battle finally come to a stop, even Wan Lianghan let out a sigh of relief. He looked at Lin Yan with a complicated expression before quietly saying to Sun Cu,

”Your friend... is a bit reckless.”

Sun Cu smiled bitterly and shook his head. ”He wasn’t like this before.” After a moment’s thought, he added uncertainly, ”Perhaps it’s because he’s still young. After all, he’s only about my granddaughter’s age. Or perhaps becoming the Supreme Elder of his clan changed him a little.”

Meanwhile, Tang Fangming immediately seized the opportunity. ”We’re all Righteous Path Gu Immortals. If we keep fighting to the death, won’t we only become a laughingstock for the Demonic Path? Since everyone is here to negotiate, why not everyone take a step back?”

Lin Yan nodded slightly. ”Very well. Since we’re negotiating, I’ll state my conditions. Two Rank 6 Flame Path Immortal Gu in exchange for the two of them.”

At this, Mo Lei couldn’t hold back and shouted, ”Impossible.”

”Hmph.”

Lin Yan looked at Mo Lei coldly. ”Your Mo Family was the one that crossed the line first. You’ve already witnessed my strength. If you insist on pushing this matter to the end, I’ll move the Huang Family into my blessed land, abandon everything here, and become a Demonic Path cultivator. From that day onward, every Mo Family Gu Immortal I meet will be my target. Unless your Mo Family can keep an Immortal Gu House beside every one of them and don’t expect a mere Rank 7 Gu immortal can stop me.”

The moment those words fell, Mo Lei’s heart sank. He finally understood the consequences of forcing Lin Yan into a corner. The Mo Family had no Rank 8 expert overseeing it. Their Immortal Gu House had to remain behind to guard the clan’s headquarters and could not be deployed at will. Against someone like Lin Yan, they truly had no effective way to deal with him.

Seeing Mo Lei’s attitude soften, Lin Yan immediately pressed his advantage.

”If the Mo Family is willing to compensate me and put this matter to rest, it’s not impossible for us to become allies in the future. I ask for nothing more. I only wish to cultivate in peace.”

Hearing this, Mo Lei was unwilling to accept at first, but after a long silence, he finally said through gritted teeth, ”Fine. This time...

Our Mo Family admits defeat.”

Lin Yan finally relaxed inwardly. A faint smile appeared on his face. His goal had finally been achieved. He had secured the greatest possible benefit while avoiding an irreconcilable conflict with the Mo Family. As long as everything remained within his expectations, the future would not stray too far from its original course.

This negotiation also gave Lin Yan a deeper understanding of the Righteous Path. Although a Righteous Path identity imposed many restrictions, it also brought corresponding benefits. Without it, the Mo Family would never have agreed to negotiate. Coupled with the strength he had displayed during the battle, the entire negotiation had proceeded far more smoothly than expected.

With both sides finally reaching an agreement, Tang Fangming and Wan Lianghan completed the final step of the negotiations. The Wan Family temporarily provided an Information Path Immortal Gu, allowing the two sides to conclude an agreement that neither could violate.

Lin Yan knew he now owed both of them a favor. Without the Tang Family and the Wan Family stepping forward, the Mo Family would never have compromised so easily.

More than ten days later, the Mo Family delivered the two Rank 6 Flame Path Immortal Gu as agreed, and Lin Yan released Mo Guang and Plump Lady.

Although the two had regained their freedom, fear still lingered in their hearts, mixed with deep resentment. After suffering such a crushing defeat, they no longer dared provoke Lin Yan lightly. The next time they met, neither side would show any mercy.

Looking at the two Rank 6 Immortal Gu in his hands, Lin Yan could not help but sigh inwardly. The foundation of a super force was truly profound. Only a super force could afford to compensate someone with two Rank 6 Immortal Gu.

This battle had also consumed a tremendous amount of Lin Yan’s resources. Before the battle, he had accumulated around two hundred beads of green grape immortal essence. More than half had been spent, leaving him with barely a hundred.

Fortunately, more than ten days had passed since then. With the accelerated flow of time inside his blessed land and the powerful foundation of his Ten Extreme Physique, his immortal essence had already recovered to over one hundred and fifty beads.

”Let’s see what Immortal Gu the Mo Family sent.”

Filled with anticipation, Lin Yan unsealed the two Immortal Gu. Everything had been bound by the agreement, so he had no need to worry about hidden tricks.

He examined them carefully, only to find that both Immortal Gu were completely useless to him.
