Doupo: Rebirth of Gu He, Starting with a Strategy to Win Over Yun Yun

Chapter 39 One sword slays the Serpent King, a single thought shapes the Mohist schoolSeveral streams of light-like Sword Intent ravaged Lü Man’s body.

Instantly, he was heavily injured!

”I underestimated you...”

Lü Man panted heavily. He wanted to mobilize his wooden cage to resist the attack, but he saw the black and white water droplets of the Formation beneath his feet reverse, and his Dou Qi stagnated.

”Lü Man, haha!”

A deafening voice suddenly rang out across the high sky.

”I didn’t expect you to be forced into such a state. If this were to spread back, they would laugh you to death!”

The serpent-like Demonic Beast flew in the air, its eight black-and-purple wings vibrating the air, and the crown-shaped protrusion on its head revealed its Rank 6 Demonic Beast status.

Its huge triangular pupils stared at Pill King Gu He, filled with a probing look.

”You bastard, White Fang! This person used a very strange secret technique to trap me in this barrier. Otherwise, if I didn’t go to snatch the person, would I just stand here stupidly waiting for him to attack?”

The Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor confirmed gravely, ”Is it really the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils?”

Lü Man nodded, ”That’s right!”

Opposite them, Pill King Gu He chuckled and interjected,

”Are you finished discussing your tactics?”

”Is it my turn now?!”

The understated tone caused Lü Man inside the Qiankun Prison to choke.

He solemnly exhorted White Fang,

”Although this person’s cultivation is not as high as mine, he has a very strange Heavenly Flame, and you must be careful of his sword...”

”Lü Man, why are you being so timid! Hah, let me teach him a lesson!”

”The people of this Jia Ma Empire have no manners at all. Take this!”

White Fang was a bit impatient and didn’t continue listening. It swung its hard snake tail and flew toward Pill King Gu He.

It was the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor!

Its snake scales were like a copper wall and an iron bastion.

However—

Two Pill King Gu Hes appeared before it.

Identical figures held a red sword, the blade wrapped in eerie cyan flames, their eyes equally cold, making it impossible to tell which one was the real one.

Its beast brain stalled, then it attacked both regardless,

”Boom—”

”Whoosh, whoosh—”

The triangular pupils of the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor trembled violently.

Before it could even attack, intense pain instantly pierced through its hard outer scales and struck deep inside.

With bowl-sized turbid tears in the corners of its eyes, it looked back in a daze at its own snake body.

It saw its eight beautiful wings, which it took pride in, fall to the ground like withered leaves.

They had actually been severed by a single strike from the two Pill King Gu Hes!

”Ah!”

Having lost its wings, the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor endured the immense pain and fell directly from the sky, smashing into the ground!

The severed eight wings were still bleeding continuously.

In the large crater, its eyes were filled with absolute horror, no longer having its previous arrogance.

As a Rank 6 Demonic Beast that had gained intelligence, it had no power to fight back against this human male!

”Lü Man... we admit defeat this time! Run!” The Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor roared in pain,

”You must add to my reward when we go back, otherwise I’ll flip the table on you!”

The Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor twisted its snake body, gathered its remaining strength to manifest two pairs of blood wings, scooped up the dying Lü Man, and cursed as it fled at high speed, breaking through Pill King Gu He’s Qiankun Prison barrier.

The blood on its back left a long trail, looking extremely wretched.

Pill King Gu He held the Crimson Sky Sword, condensed the beast blood on the sword into liquid, and wiped the blade clean by evaporation.

”Do not chase a desperate foe...” Pill King Gu He retracted the Crimson Sky Sword, his Killing Intent instantly subsided, and his demeanor returned to being gentle.

He looked softly at Qing Lin, who was lying on Hai Bodong’s back. After taking the Medicinal Pill, she was clearly not as uncomfortable anymore, her sleeping face peaceful and tranquil.

”Let’s go, find a safe place to stay for the night, and tomorrow... we’ll wreck the birthday banquet!”

Pill King Gu He’s eyes were resolute.

Nalan Yanran looked at him with admiration, her small face turning red at some point, burning like a pink hydrangea that had drunk alcohol.

Hai Bodong was also surprised by the strength Pill King Gu He had displayed casually, and nodded cautiously.

He had thought Pill King Gu He was at most slightly stronger than himself, after all, his own strength had been sealed for many years and he was a bit rusty, but now...

He had finally witnessed the true terror of Pill King Gu He!

...

Mo Clan mansion, the spacious hall was filled with a festive atmosphere.

Experts and representatives from the eastern part of the Empire had all come to celebrate Mo Cheng’s birthday, and the hall looked like a grand event site for a moment.

Mo Cheng was dressed in fine clothes, cupping his hands and bowing to the guests coming and going below, but his smile was somewhat forced.

Just last night, Mo Cheng received a report that the little girl with the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils had actually been rescued!

And no one noticed when she was rescued!

The guards at the gate had been unconscious for a whole night. The next day, their faces were swollen like pig heads, unrecognizable to their wives and children, and the physicians were helpless!

So no one knew who had rescued the little girl... His organ transplant plan had to be postponed again!

Now he still had to force a smile at this bunch of people.

”Cloud Mist Sect—arrives!” The announcement sounded.

Mo Cheng quickly restrained his emotions, his face instantly smiling like an old chrysanthemum, and he got up to welcome them.

When Nalan Yanran walked in, his smile grew even wider,

”Niece Nalan, I didn’t expect you to come in person! My Mo Clan is truly honored!”

Nalan Yanran nodded slightly, her face expressionless, having learned a bit of Pill King Gu He’s composure.

Then, Pill King Gu He behind her walked out slowly.

”Hmm... this is?” Mo Cheng blinked his cloudy old eyes and said somewhat uncertainly,

”Is this Pill King Gu He?! Niece Nalan?”

Nalan Yanran looked indifferent and nodded slightly.

”I didn’t expect Elder Gu to condescend to come and celebrate my birthday, haha—”

Mo Cheng felt the envious gazes around him and became even more proud.

Hah, his Mo Clan was now something even the Cloud Mist Sect had to show some respect to!

Wasn’t this why they sent Pill King Gu He to celebrate his birthday?

Pill King Gu He’s status was about the same as that woman Yun Yun!

Thinking this way, his unhappiness about losing the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils diminished a bit.

”Elder Mo is indeed—’hardworking and meritorious’!”

Amidst Mo Cheng’s lingering joyful expression, Pill King Gu He said word by word,

”Believing in the Evil Path, killing the innocent indiscriminately, snatching people’s organs!”

”Truly worthy of being the famous Executioner Mo!”

Gu He laughed coldly, his voice filled with heavy sarcasm, not giving him a good look at all.

Mo Cheng reacted. The things he had done were actually known by the Cloud Mist Sect!

His aged arm moved, his clothes turned to powder, and what was revealed was the forelimb of the Rank 5 Demonic Beast, the Blazing Mountain-Breaking Rhinoceros, which he had transplanted!

The red, wide beast palm was extremely eerie.

Just as Mo Cheng’s arm was about to move,

A cyan flame ejected rapidly from Pill King Gu He’s fingertips and ignited his robes.

In an instant, it hissed and licked the marrow!

”Ah—”

Even the forelimb of the Rank 5 Demonic Beast, the Blazing Mountain-Breaking Rhinoceros, could not escape Pill King Gu He’s flames.

A draft blew through, and Mo Cheng turned into ashes!

Before the people in the hall could react, Pill King Gu He had already taken out the special token of the Cloud Mist Sect and a piece of parchment that looked very new.

He walked to the main seat and stood still. He did not sit down, but said sternly,

”On the orders of the Sect, cleaning up the Sect!”

”Everyone has seen it before, the Mo Clan head transplanted the limbs of Demonic Beasts onto his own body, using crooked and evil ways to make himself stronger.”

He spread out the parchment, which contained the evidence of Mo Cheng’s crimes collected by Yun Yun.

”He and the Mo Clan behind him even targeted humans with special organs, capturing and killing them at will, plundering their organs!”

”Heaven’s laws are clear, the crime is unforgivable!”

The condensed Dou Qi carried Pill King Gu He’s voice very far.

The people in the hall were talking, but all were impressed by the Cloud Mist Sect and Pill King Gu He’s method of handling things.

Decisive, neat, without any hesitation!

...

Among the guests, a young man was hiding.

He was wearing black robes, bowing his head in thought, and only regained his senses after Pill King Gu He killed Mo Cheng.

Just yesterday, he borrowed the power of Yao Lao to sneak into the Mo mansion alone, but when he couldn’t find Qing Lin, he saw three black-clad figures leaving at high speed.

He hurriedly followed.

The black-clad man leading them was holding a girl—it was Qing Lin!

And his aura, Xiao Yan didn’t know why, was somewhat familiar. After asking Yao Lao, he learned that it was actually Pill King Gu He, who had once taken his Heavenly Flame!

And he actually had a Dou Huang expert following him as a bodyguard!

He spent some time and finally made up his mind to snatch the person.

However, an unexpected change occurred.

A green-clothed woman with Dou Huang strength and a Rank 6 Demonic Beast appeared, also to snatch the person!

However, they were easily repelled by Pill King Gu He in a few moves!

Xiao Yan stood on the ground, looking at the battle of the experts in the high sky, deeply feeling his own weakness.

Yao Lao asked him, ”Are you still going to snatch the person?”

Xiao Yan’s eyes flashed with memories of Stone Desert City, he closed his eyes,

”Not snatching anymore. She is not the most important thing right now.”

”Qing Lin is just... a servant girl.”

”I still have to go get stronger to deal with the Three-Year Agreement.”

”If I face Pill King Gu He now, I’m afraid... it would be certain death!”

A fierce look flashed in Xiao Yan’s eyes, ambitious,

”I still have a long time, let’s wait and see!”
