Rural Doctor Enters the City: Whoever Touches My Wife, I'll Take Them Down!

Chapter 973: Chapter 973: Inviting the Wolf into the House!

At the border between the Ten Thousand Great Mountains and Nan County, atop a towering peak.

Hei Gu stood at the summit.

In his hand, he held the blood token given to him by Tiansheng Elder.

He had already sent the signal, following Tiansheng Elder’s instructions.

Now, he waited.

Before long, the sound of something slicing through the wind could be heard, rapidly approaching from afar. Hei Gu turned toward the sound and saw tiny black dots hurtling towards him in the distance.

In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen figures flew up to the mountain summit.

All of them were over fifty years old, and their entire beings exuded immense power.

Upon seeing them, Hei Gu felt a deep sense of shock in his heart.

In a low, gravelly voice, he asked:

”Are you all from the Dark Domain?”

The leader, expressionless, replied:

”Yes.”

”Where is Elder Tiansheng? Take us to him.”

Hearing this, a fleeting trace of gloom flashed through Hei Gu’s eyes.

He had not expected that the Dark Domain had hidden so many experts on the outskirts of the Ten Thousand Great Mountains.

The cultivation of everyone present was at least in the Saint Realm, and the leader’s cultivation had actually reached Holy Realm Complete.

Among them, there were even three individuals of a level similar to his.

Although Tiansheng Elder had mentioned he had backup, Hei Gu hadn’t anticipated that the seemingly casual two words from Tiansheng Elder would amount to such an overwhelming force.

This realization caused Hei Gu to waver.

In truth, his partnership with Tiansheng Elder was entirely a ploy to use someone else’s blade to kill.

He intended to leverage the power of the Dark Domain to eliminate dissenters within the Blood Gu Clan, including the Clan Leader and others.

At the same time, he hoped that the Clan Leader would fight these forces to mutual destruction, allowing him to swoop in to reap the benefits.

Yet, he hadn’t foreseen that Tiansheng Elder had prepared something so formidable, a move that made it exceedingly unlikely for the Clan Leader and his allies to stand against these foes.

The plan to reap the rewards could very well turn into inviting the wolf into the house.

At this moment, Hei Gu suddenly felt as though he had been manipulated by Tiansheng Elder.

Could it be that from the very start, Tiansheng Elder had intended to use him to completely annihilate the Blood Gu Clan?

Thinking of this, cold sweat began to bead on Hei Gu’s forehead.

The man in the lead coldly stared at Hei Gu.

”What are you waiting for?”

”Everyone is here.”

Hearing the man’s urging, Hei Gu realized it was too late to say or do anything to change the situation.

From the beginning, he had been negotiating with the tiger. Now, with events unfolding as they were, he could only take things one step at a time.

Resolving himself, Hei Gu gritted his teeth and said:

”Follow me.”

With that, he quickly led the group towards the Blood Gu Clan.

...

In the underground chamber of the Blood Gu Clan Main Hall.

Tiansheng Elder, having received Hei Gu’s warning, was already personally presiding over the formation.

His objective was singular: to swiftly eliminate those trapped within the formation.

Doing so would allow him to quickly deal with the remaining members of the three major factions, thus utterly eradicating the top-tier forces of the Blood Gu Clan. By that time, the vast Blood Gu Clan would be helpless prey under his control.

Additionally, there was Zhou Yu—the one who had killed his direct disciple. That boy had to die as well.

In Tiansheng Elder’s eyes burned a cold, deadly intent.

”Zong Wu, rest assured. Your master will avenge you.”

”Very soon, that boy Zhou Yu will be torn limb from limb.”

With that said, he immediately turned to the people managing the black bottle magic artifacts in the four corners and commanded:

”Activate the formation with full power. Finish off the ones trapped inside as quickly as possible.”

”Yes, Elder.”

Upon receiving the command, the twelve experts stationed in the four corners began to fully activate the black bottle artifacts.

In an instant, black mist began to surge from the black bottles. The mist, which had previously coiled slowly around the blood-red barrier, transformed into a rapidly spinning whirlpool—a dread-inducing tornado.

And as the power of the formation suddenly skyrocketed, the Clan Leader and those trapped inside immediately turned pale, vomiting blood in unison.

Chi Xiong’s face grew extremely grim. He shouted in anger and alarm:

”This is bad! The formation’s rate of siphoning away our lifeblood has increased. It seems they’re intent on finishing us off quickly.”

Just as Chi Xiong’s words fell, a chilling voice rang out from beyond the formation.

”Ba Tong, don’t bother hoping for rescue.”

”The Dark Domain has been preparing for this day for nearly ten years. Today, your death is certain.”

Hearing this, Zi Ying and others turned pale, exclaiming in shock:

”The Dark Domain???”

”The ones outside are from the Dark Domain???”

Ever since being trapped, they had assumed this was all Hei Gu’s doing.

They had been puzzled, wondering how Hei Gu could have silently constructed such a terrifying formation.

They had never imagined that the ones outside were from the Dark Domain.

For a time, everyone’s faces were filled with disbelief.

Only the Clan Leader remained expressionless, his demeanor icy cold, as if he had known the truth all along.

He merely cast an indifferent glance outside the formation. Then, abruptly, he activated his cultivation technique, and a terrifying green True Qi burst forth from his body.

This green True Qi transformed into a barrier, encasing the entire group within it.

With the emergence of this green barrier, everyone immediately felt the terrifying siphoning force of the Ten Thousand Poisons Bloodthirsty Array lessen significantly.

At the same time, Tiansheng Elder, who was outside the formation, also took note of the green barrier.

However, he didn’t seem concerned at all. He merely sneered:

”Still putting up a desperate fight, huh? Let’s see how much longer you can last.”

Seeing this, everyone quickly turned to the Clan Leader, only to notice his face growing alarmingly pale, and his body trembling slightly.

Shocked, they hurried forward, but the Clan Leader’s Wife, Yin Luo, beat them to it, supporting him immediately.

”Ba Tong, are you alright?”

The Clan Leader raised his hand, indicating he was fine.

Then, he turned his gaze toward Qing Niu.

”Qing Niu!”

The Qing Niu Dharma King immediately stepped forward, respectfully responding, ”Clan Leader, I am here.”

”Qing Niu, among the Five Dharma Kings, you are the most steady. If this calamity befalls our clan and I meet with an unexpected end, you will succeed me as Clan Leader.”

At these words, everyone’s expressions changed dramatically.

”Clan Leader!!!”

”What are you saying???”

”Why would you bring up something like this now?”

Even the usually composed Qing Niu couldn’t hide his anxiety.

”Clan Leader, what’s going on?”

”Didn’t you say that the one who will break this stalemate has already arrived?”

”Could something else go wrong?”

Faced with everyone’s urgent questions and confusion, the Clan Leader sighed heavily.

”I know you’re all wondering about the Dark Domain.”

”It seems the time has come for me to tell you everything...”
