Chapter 151: The Dragon Comes from the East!
Gu Rulong looked at the tall mountain with narrowed eyes.
“This bow doesn’t need arrows. When drawn, it will concentrate spiritual energy into the shape of an arrow and shoot it. The power of each shot depends on the strength of its wielder,” explained the Treasure Master from behind.
Gu Rulong stepped back and drew the bowstring.
An overwhelming power emanated from the Sun-Devouring Bow.
Everyone present changed their expressions!
Purple energy coiled around the Sun-Devouring Bow, slowly forming the shape of an arrow!
An arrow formed from spiritual energy!
How terrifying was the power contained in this arrow?
Even before it was released, it made everyone present feel suffocated!
Gu Rulong narrowed his eyes, aiming the bow at the distant mountain.
Then, he released the bowstring.
“Boom!”
A powerful energy burst forth from where Gu Rulong stood.
The ground behind him cracked from the impact!
Many people were blown away!
“Whoosh!”
A purple light streaked across the sky, accompanied by a piercing sonic boom!
In two seconds, the arrow of concentrated spiritual energy penetrated the mountain!
“Rumble!”
The next second, everyone’s eyes widened.
They saw the mountain two thousand meters away explode from its middle and collapse!
Moments later, dust filled the air and rock fragments flew everywhere.
Half of the entire mountain was just… gone!
Is this… the power of a Martial Sovereign?
People looked at Gu Rulong standing there calmly, their eyes filled with not just shock, but fear.
With such terrifying power, who could possibly be Gu Rulong’s match?
“Brother Gu, are you satisfied with this gift?” asked the Treasure Master with a broad smile.
Gu Rulong looked at the purple-glowing Sun-Devouring Bow in his hands, his eyes flashing golden as he laughed heartily: “Hahaha… Thank you for your generous gift, brother! I love it!”
With this superior-grade magical treasure, his power had risen to another level.
He believed that with his current strength, he would rank among the top not just in Jiangnan’s martial world, but throughout all of China!
Tomorrow, at Moon Heart Lake, he would show everyone in Jiangnan and the surrounding regions his power!
He would make the name Gu Rulong and the title of Dragon Gate shake the world!
…
The day of the duel arrived.
Moon Heart Lake was packed with people, even more than during the previous Jiangnan Martial Families Summit.
Today, not only had people from Jiangnan’s martial world come, but many from Huaibei’s martial world had also arrived after hearing the news.
Everyone wanted to witness firsthand just how powerful a Martial Sovereign truly was!
Besides those from the martial world, many elites from the secular world who had received news also came to Moon Heart Lake.
Tang Mingde and Ji Rumei were among them.
“What an impressive gathering… everyone here is a major figure,” Tang Mingde said solemnly while looking around.
Tang Si, standing beside Tang Mingde, looked at the dense crowd on Moon Heart Lake with shock in his eyes.
This was his first time sensing so many powerful auras.
On Moon Heart Lake, there were no fewer than forty Master-level experts!
Ji Rumei’s beautiful eyes were filled with worry.
With such a gathering, if Fang Yu really came today, he wouldn’t be able to leave safely.
Most people on Moon Heart Lake probably wanted to curry favor with Martial Sovereign Gu Rulong, right?
“Sigh, Master Fang, why did you have to accept the challenge?”
Ji Rumei felt very uneasy.
She believed in Fang Yu’s strength and knew he had always exceeded her expectations.
But today’s opponent was completely different from those in the past.
The opponent was Gu Rulong, Jiangnan’s strongest!
“Mr. Tang, Miss Ji, you arrived early,” Qin Yimo walked over at this moment.
“Miss Qin,” Tang Mingde and Ji Rumei greeted her.
“Moon Heart Lake is completely full. Looks like we can only stay by the shore,” Qin Yimo said, looking at the crowd on Moon Heart Lake.
Seeing Qin Yimo so calm, Ji Rumei couldn’t help but ask: “Miss Qin… are you confident about Master Fang?”
Seeing the worry on Ji Rumei’s face, Qin Yimo said: “I’m not confident, but Fang Yu is confident in himself.”
“Sigh, I just feel Master Fang shouldn’t have accepted…” Ji Rumei said, wringing her hands and biting her pink lips.
Seeing Ji Rumei so anxious, Qin Yimo patted her shoulder and said: “Miss Ji, at this point we can only choose to believe in Fang Yu.”
Qin Yimo had also thought Fang Yu was too arrogant before, believing he couldn’t possibly be Gu Rulong’s match.
So after returning home, she called her grandfather Qin Wudao.
“Fighting a Martial Sovereign… after living in seclusion for so many years… he’s finally going to reappear before the world,” Qin Wudao muttered.
“Grandfather, shouldn’t we forcefully protect him…” Qin Yimo asked.
“Hehe, protect? No need. Yimo, in the future, no matter what Fang Yu does, you don’t need to question it. Trust me, his decisions will always be more correct than anyone else’s,” Qin Wudao said with a smile.
…
On the other side of Moon Heart Lake, a man and woman stood in a tall pavilion.
They were Zheng Xiuchen and Yang Yinzhu.
“Jiangnan is truly a barren land. Just a newly ascended Martial Sovereign can attract so many people,” Zheng Xiuchen sneered while looking at the dense crowd on Moon Heart Lake.
A Martial Sovereign was indeed powerful and quite rare.
But their Zheng family had produced four Martial Sovereigns.
So in Zheng Xiuchen’s eyes, a Martial Sovereign wasn’t particularly special.
Seeing these Jiangnan martial artists practically worshipping a Martial Sovereign like a god, he found it laughable.
What a bunch of ignorant lowlifes.
Yang Yinzhu didn’t care what Zheng Xiuchen was saying, she only cared about Fang Yu’s life and death.
She came here today just to personally witness Fang Yu being brutally crushed and killed by Gu Rulong!
Only then could she break free from her mental demons and return to a normal life!
“Dao Tian, will you come today? I haven’t avenged our last encounter…” Zheng Xiuchen’s eyes flashed with killing intent as he searched the crowd for a particular figure.
…
On Moon Heart Lake, martial artists from all over Jiangnan discussed animatedly, creating an extremely lively atmosphere.
“Who exactly is this Fang Yu? How could he make Sovereign Gu specifically challenge him by name!”
“Who cares who he is, he’ll be dead soon anyway. We’re here to witness Sovereign Gu’s might, aren’t we?”
“Actually, this Fang Yu’s life is worth it – dying at Sovereign Gu’s hands… most martial artists probably won’t even get a chance to speak to Sovereign Gu in their entire lives, right?”
In a pavilion near the center of the lake, representatives from the three strongest martial families of Jiangnan – the Zhong family, Wu family, and Luo family – all stood there.
Their purpose for coming was very clear – to see exactly how powerful Gu Rulong was.
This would affect their families’ future strategies in dealing with Gu Rulong.
Zhong Yuan and Zhong Liyu were the Zhong family’s representatives.
Fang Yu…
Zhong Liyu was very familiar with this name.
But she wasn’t sure if the Fang Yu that Gu Rulong challenged was the same Fang Yu she knew.
“A Martial Sovereign… I wonder how strong they really are? Our family’s Grand Elder has also reached the ceiling of the Master realm, I wonder when he can break through to the Martial Sovereign realm… At that time, our Zhong family could also enjoy such glory and attention,” Zhong Yuan sighed as he looked at the bustling crowd on Moon Heart Lake.
Just then, a commotion broke out on Moon Heart Lake.
“That Fang Yu has arrived!”
A figure appeared on the high platform at the center of Moon Heart Lake.
It was Fang Yu.
“So many people. If I had known, I would have crippled Yang Xu and killed Gu Yan as Dao Tian back then,” Fang Yu sighed.
Everyone on and around Moon Heart Lake now focused their attention on Fang Yu.
Is this person really Sovereign Gu’s opponent today?
This… he’s too weak!
A mere Innate realm warrior!
Just an Innate realm warrior!
They had thought that someone who could make Gu Rulong personally issue a challenge would at least be a Master.
But unexpectedly, Fang Yu was just an Innate realm warrior!
The Innate realm and Martial Sovereign realm were separated by two major realms, their power difference was like heaven and earth!
Many people were disappointed.
They wanted to see Gu Rulong demonstrate a Martial Sovereign’s power, but with an opponent of Fang Yu’s level…
What power could be demonstrated?
Gu Rulong probably just needed to lift a finger to kill Fang Yu!
With such a huge gap in strength, what was there to see?
The crowd burst into discussion.
“Kid, what are you doing up there? You can’t be Fang Yu, right? Get down quickly!”
Some even doubted that the person on the platform was Fang Yu and shouted loudly.
But if it wasn’t Fang Yu himself, who would dare to stand on the platform?
The opponent was Gu Rulong! Standing on that platform was no joke!
“It really is you…” In a nearby pavilion, Zhong Liyu looked at Fang Yu with shock.
“Liyu, you know this Fang Yu?” Zhong Yuan asked beside her.
Zhong Liyu shook her head, then nodded, saying: “I…”
Before she could finish speaking, an extremely powerful aura enveloped all of Moon Heart Lake!
Everyone’s expressions changed as they looked up.
They saw a golden dragon appear in the eastern sky!
The dragon’s body kept extending and lengthening, while its massive head flew toward Moon Heart Lake!
Its mouth opened wide with an imposing presence!
Woooo…
A long dragon’s roar reached everyone’s ears, shaking their spirits!
Gu Rulong had arrived!
