I, the Villain, Become Invincible the More Descendants I Have

Chapter 51: The Rise of King KakuEmperor Cao Xukun stood on the clouds with his hands behind his back, drifting slowly towards Luoyang, chewing on a spirit fruit he had just picked from the Northern Territory.

Li Tieniu followed beside him, counting on his fingers with a bitter, deep-seated hatred expression.

”Emperor Xuan, please calculate, we have been out for almost two months.”

”What’s the rush?” Emperor Cao Xukun spat out the fruit pit, looking indifferent. ”Imperial Concubine Xiao Ya and the Six Ministries are handling the memorials; the sky won’t fall.

The child doesn’t recognize his father? That’s impossible; my, Emperor Cao Xukun’s, seed recognizes me by nature.

Besides, aren’t we on our way back? The main point is a leisurely journey, enjoying the scenery along the way.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden transmission talisman broke through the air and stopped in front of Emperor Cao Xukun.

He crushed it casually, and the anxious voice of the transmission envoy sounded instantly: ”Your Majesty Emperor Xuan! Urgent report from the Southern Border! The Son of Destiny of the Wu Tribe, Gu King, has awakened, unified the twelve nations of the Southern Border, declared himself Gu King, and threatened to march north to conquer Great Xuan!”

”Oh? Another Son of Destiny?” Emperor Cao Xukun raised an eyebrow, becoming interested.

[Ding! System Alert! A new Son of Destiny has appeared!]

[Name: Gu King]

[Identity: Direct descendant of the Southern Border Wu Tribe, reincarnation of the ancient gu god]

[Cultivation: Peak Nascent Soul (can fight Mid-stage Spirit Severing with the blessing of gu arts)]

[Core Ability: Ancient gu god inheritance, controls billions of gu insects, can use gu arts to control people, kill invisibly, ignores ordinary spiritual power defenses]

[Current Progress: Has controlled the twelve nations of the Southern Border, established the Gu Nation, sharpening weapons and feeding horses in preparation to attack Great Xuan]

[Note: This child is ruthless, the gu arts are bizarre and hard to defend against; cultivators below the Spirit Severing stage in the Mortal Realm have a nine-in-ten chance of death if they encounter him.]

”Good guy, Long Aotian just left, and Gu King takes over.” Emperor Cao Xukun sneered. ”Is the system opening a ’Son of Destiny’ courier station for me? Sending me opportunities and treasures one after another, the service is quite thorough.”

”Emperor Xuan, this Gu King is too evil!” Li Tieniu’s face changed drastically. ”He can hard-clash with Mid-stage Spirit Severing at the peak of Nascent Soul. How many old monsters at the Early-stage Spirit Severing have fallen to the Southern Border’s gu arts in the past, their very souls gnawed away by gu insects until not even a residue remained! Should we turn around and head to the Southern Border to strangle this kid in the cradle?”

”What’s the rush?” Emperor Cao Xukun waved his hand, extremely calm. ”So what if he’s Peak Nascent Soul with Spirit Severing combat power? I’m currently at the late-stage Great Perfection of Spirit Severing; his little gu arts are just a flashy show in my eyes.

He’s in such a rush to unify the twelve nations just after awakening; he’s clearly an impatient character.

It’s just right to let him gather all the treasures of the Southern Border first, and then I’ll go and wipe him out in one go; the main point is to fatten him up before killing him.”

Meanwhile, the Southern Border had already turned into a living hell.

Deep within the Ten Thousand Mountains, in the forbidden area of the Wu Tribe, black miasma covered the sky and sun.

Billions of colorful gu insects danced in the air, emitting a scalp-numbing buzzing sound.

On the altar in the center of the forbidden area, a young man wearing black wizard robes sat cross-legged.

His face was covered in bizarre blood-red gu patterns, and his eyes were pitch black, without a trace of white.

He was Gu King.

Three days ago, he was just an inconspicuous side-branch disciple of the Wu Tribe, bullied by the direct line to the point of not even having food to eat.

It wasn’t until he accidentally broke into the forbidden area and awakened the ancient gu god inheritance that had been sleeping for ten thousand years that he awakened the gu god bloodline overnight, and his cultivation soared directly to the peak of Nascent Soul.

”Hahaha! Ancient gu god inheritance! It finally belongs to me!” Gu King opened his eyes suddenly and laughed up at the sky.

Countless gu insects flew around him, as if worshipping their king.

”The people who bullied me before must all die! The entire Southern Border should be the world of me, Gu King!”

He was the first to find the Great Wizard of the Wu Tribe.

The Great Wizard looked down on this side-branch kid and brought the elders to surround him, but they were eaten by the Heart-Eating Gu released by Gu King until not even their bones remained.

In less than an hour, the power of the Wu Tribe fell into the hands of Gu King.

Immediately after, he led the Wu Tribe army and began to sweep across the twelve nations of the Southern Border.

His methods were extremely ruthless.

For countries that voluntarily surrendered, he planted Mother-Child Gu on their kings, making them his puppets; for countries that dared to resist, he directly released the Ten Thousand Gu Slaughter of the City, leaving no chickens or dogs alive.

The king of the Dali Kingdom, the largest in the Southern Border, relied on his strong army and refused to surrender.

Gu King broke into the palace alone.

Overnight, more than three thousand people in the palace were devoured by gu insects, leaving not a single living soul.

The next day, the city gates of the Dali Kingdom were hung with corpses gnawed beyond recognition by gu insects.

With this, the entire Southern Border was terrified.

The remaining eleven kings didn’t even dare to have the thought of resistance, and brought their jade seals overnight to surrender, willingly letting Gu King plant the Mother-Child Gu.

In less than ten days, the twelve nations of the Southern Border all fell under the control of Gu King.

He declared himself ”Gu King” in Gu City, the center of the Southern Border, and established the Great Gu Nation.

He promulgated a series of bizarre and terrifying decrees:

• Everyone must raise gu, every household must hand in ten qualified gu insects every year, those who don’t hand them in will be fed to the gu insects;

• All officials must accept the control of Mother-Child Gu, anyone who dares to have dissent will die from heart-eating gu insects;

• Cultivation of any technique other than gu arts is prohibited, violators will have their cultivation abolished and become feed for gu insects.

For a time, the people of the Southern Border were in danger.

They dared not go out during the day and dared not light lamps at night, fearing that they would be caught and fed to gu insects if they were not careful.

The once prosperous Southern Border was now full of gu insects flying everywhere, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood and the stench of gu poison.

In the main hall of the Gu King’s palace, Gu King sat on a throne piled with skulls, and the kings of the twelve nations and the elders of the Wu Tribe knelt below.

Everyone lowered their heads, trembling, not even daring to breathe loudly.

”Everyone,” Gu King played with a golden gu insect in his hand, his voice cold. ”Now that the Southern Border has been unified, what should we do next?”

A king said tremblingly: ”Your Majesty Gu King is wise! We should recuperate and develop our national strength...”

”Recuperate?” Gu King sneered, flicked his finger, and that golden gu insect instantly burrowed into the king’s mouth.

The king screamed, fell to the ground and twitched a few times, then lost his breath, and countless small gu insects crawled out of his seven orifices.

Everyone in the hall was terrified, and their heads were buried even lower.

”Trash!” Gu King snorted coldly. ”I, Gu King, am the reincarnation of the ancient gu god, how could I be content with a corner? In the five regions of the Mortal Realm, why can he, Emperor Cao Xukun, be Emperor Xuan and Demon Emperor, and I cannot?”

He stood up abruptly, looking north with gloomy eyes: ”What is Emperor Cao Xukun? Just a playboy with good luck! When I refine the King of Ten Thousand Gu, even if he is late-stage Spirit Severing, I can make him feed for gu insects! When the time comes, I will lead a million-strong gu army north, flatten Luoyang, and kill Emperor Cao Xukun!”

”At that time, I will be the master of the entire Mortal Realm! Everyone will be feed for my gu insects! All treasures will belong to me!”

”Long live Gu King! Long live, long live, long, long live!”

The people below kowtowed and shouted, their voices full of fear.

Gu King nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand: ”Pass my order! Everyone raise gu! Three months later, Northern Expedition to Great Xuan! Whoever dares to hold back will have the same fate as the king just now!”

”Yes!”

Meanwhile, above the clouds, Emperor Cao Xukun sneezed.

”Who is scolding me? It must be that Gu King kid.” He touched his nose and said with a smile, ”He even wants to make me feed for gu insects? It’s really a toad yawning, the tone is not small.”

”Emperor Xuan, are we really not going to care about him?” Li Tieniu was still a little worried. ”What if he secretly launches a sneak attack?”

”What’s there to be afraid of?” Emperor Cao Xukun curled his lips in disdain.

”Let that kid Gu King jump around for another two months. When I finish my family business, I’ll go and pack him up.”

”At that time, his ancient gu god inheritance will be mine, his Southern Border will be mine, and all the treasures he has accumulated will also be mine.”

Li Tieniu shook his head helplessly and hurriedly followed.

Two figures cut through the sky and galloped towards the direction of the Luoyang Divine Capital.

A new storm was quietly brewing.
