Chapter 155: Chapter 155 Absolute Certainty

"Father has emerged from retreat!"

In the heart of Guangyang Prefecture City, Gu Yang received the news immediately.

Gu Qingfeng had finished his seclusion.

It let the great stone hanging in his heart fall.

Since his own father had emerged from retreat, it meant that he was confident in dealing with the Tianyang Sword Sect.

At the same time.

Gu Yang also made certain to find out where the mysterious forces that had recently appeared in Qingyun State came from.

Divine Sword Sect—Sword State!

Taisu Sect—Ling Province!

Ji Family—Xianzhou!

These were all forces on the same level as the Tianyang Sword Sect; they belonged to the Immortal Sect families.

It wasn''t just the three great Immortal forces that had brought experts; numerous other top sects and families had also sent strong figures into Qingyun State.

The goal of these forces was also clear—it was Guangyang Prefecture.

To be precise.

It was the Great Grandmaster behind him, the Guangyang Prince.

Therefore.

Gu Yang saw this upcoming battle as of great significance.

If Gu Qingfeng and the Tianyang Sword Sect were both badly hurt, other forces would likely seize the opportunity to make their move.

In that case.

There could only be one outcome to this battle.

Victory!

And it had to be a crushing victory!

Otherwise.

Nothing less would be enough to deter these Immortal Sect forces.

"Where is Father now?"

Gu Yang looked at the Hidden Guard before him and asked.

Upon hearing this, the latter respectfully replied, "Reporting to Your Highness, after the manor master left Gu Family Manor, his movements have been unpredictable, and even we Hidden Guards, who have been observing him along the way, have found it difficult to discern any clues."

Hearing this.

Gu Yang showed a look of helplessness but did not become angry.

After all, the intelligence capabilities of the Hidden Guard were strong, but to constantly monitor a Great Grandmaster was an impossible task.

Besides.

The Hidden Guard itself was a force cultivated by Gu Qingfeng.

The battle will attract many powerful figures. It''s a good opportunity to show them the true strength of the Gu Family Manor.

This battle, if you can eliminate Gu Yutian, will bring you tremendous benefits."

"Without Gu Yutian, the Tianyang Sword Sect can no longer be considered an authentic Immortal Sect. At that time, you can use this momentum to take Taishan County and then set your sights on Qingyun State."

"Only by taking control of a whole province can you truly have the qualification to contend for supremacy in the world!"

The emergence of a Great Grandmaster.

And the arrival of the Tianyang Sword Sect.

This had long turned Guangyang Prefecture into the center of the world''s turmoil.

Originally, Gu Qingfeng had not planned to let the Tianyang Sword Sect enter Guangyang Prefecture but instead aimed to eliminate Gu Yutian early and nip the threat in the bud.

But now.

Gu Qingfeng had other plans.

He didn''t want to stop Gu Yutian; on the contrary, he wanted to let Gu Yutian lead the forces of the Tianyang Sword Sect straight into Guangyang Prefecture and then execute him openly under the scrutiny of all.

The purpose of doing so was to establish awe.

After all.

Over the years, although the Gu Family Manor had annihilated many factions within Taishan County and even in Qingyun State, it was still famous.

However.

Such fame was no match for that of the Immortal Sects.

Should this battle publicly culminate in the slaying of Gu Yutian, then the reputation of the Gu Family Manor would reach its peak, and for Gu Yang, the Manor Master and Guangyang Prince, his prestige and reputation could increase by more than just double.

The enhancement of such reputation and prestige, while attracting hostility from many factions, can also bring about great benefits.

Hearing Gu Qingfeng''s words, Gu Yang''s heart couldn''t help but beat violently.

He was very clear.

If what Gu Qingfeng said could truly be achieved, the benefits were imaginable.

However.

There was still some worry lingering in Gu Yang''s heart.

"Father, just how certain are you about eliminating Gu Yutian?"

"One hundred percent!"

Gu Qingfeng uttered these two words.

Hearing this.

Gu Yang''s heart gave another jolt, immediately followed by a surge of great joy.

Knowing Gu Qingfeng as he did, the man never talked big.

Since his own father claimed to be one hundred percent sure, then it must indeed be so.

Thinking this.

The small lingering worries Gu Yang had about the upcoming battle dissolved completely.
