Chapter 76: Chapter 76: Understanding the True Heart

    True Yang Sect.

    Now, it was a scene of utter despair.

    One could only see bodies lying all over, each face frozen in a rigid expression of terror, as if they had witnessed something horrifying just before their deaths.

    And from the main hall of the True Yang Sect, there came the wailing of a woman and the crazed and brutal laughter of a man.

    The Sect Master, True Yang Elder, now had all his limbs twisted, lying on the ground like a puddle of mud, his eyes nearly bursting as he watched the scene unfold before him.

    A young woman had her limbs twisted and was being violated by a young man without restraint.

    After a long while.

    The young man''s face broke into a satisfied smile, then casually snapped the woman''s neck and tossed her body in front of the True Yang Elder.

    "Good, I didn''t expect such a fine creature from a minor place like White Stone Dao. Impressive, indeed!"

    Ning Fu licked his lips as he looked at the woman''s body, seemingly longing for more.

    True Yang Elder''s eyes filled with blood, and he bellowed, "This is White Stone Dao, and you dare destroy my True Yang Sect—Gu Family Manor will not let this go!"

    "Hmph, Gu Family Manor? They are merely martial artists, what could they possibly amount to."

    Ning Fu scoffed disdainfully, his gaze at True Yang Elder filled with cruelty.

    "I''ve kept you alive until now because you are the only martial artist in the late stage of Blood Refining Realm of True Yang Sect. It is only fitting to savor you slowly.

    After all, the flesh of a martial artist in the late stage of Blood Refining Realm is not something ordinary people can compare with.

    Swallowing you might even advance my cultivation further!"

    Though not a magician, he had practiced the Divine Skills of the Red Flame Sect, nurturing his own body with the vital essence of martial artists to attain a half-spirit body.

    That being so.

    Once he truly starts Refining Evil, it would become much easier.

    During the conversation.

    Ning Fu slowly walked up to True Yang Elder, then bent down. Amidst the explosive anger in the elder''s eyes, he directly pierced his chest and extracted his heart.

    "I am from the Red Flame Sect, and never mind that those from Gu Family Manor aren''t here, even if they were, they wouldn''t dare touch a hair of mine—"

    "Who is this madman spouting nonsense, he should be executed!"

    Just as Ning Fu''s words fell, a furious shout came from outside the hall, followed by a terrifying Blade Intent erupting and extremely cold Blade Qi bursting into the hall, causing his complexion to drastically change.

    "Boom—"

    Ning Fu had just made his move when he was blasted out by a force.

    A splatter!

    An arm flew through the air.

    The intense pain twisted Ning Fu''s face instantly.

    At this moment.

    He finally saw clearly; a young man holding a blade slowly entered the hall.

    "Mr. Gu Qingfeng, please, avenge our True Yang Sect—"

    The True Yang Sect was nearly annihilated.

    At this time,

    other disciples from the Outer Hall of the Gu Family Manor arrived at the site.

    Seeing the scene inside the great hall, their expressions also turned stunned.

    Gu Yang said, "Is there a survivor in the True Yang Sect now?"

    "Reporting to the Young Master, out of the three hundred and sixty-nine members of the True Yang Sect, except for the informant, all have perished,"

    a disciple from the Outer Hall solemnly said.

    "Clean this up!"

    Gu Yang took one last look at the scene in the great hall, dropped a remark, and then turned to leave.

    The incident with the True Yang Sect made him understand more than ever that only by possessing enough power could one survive in these chaotic times.

    "The strong ruthlessly slaughter the weak!"

    "In this chaotic era, the moral order has collapsed, just as my father said, the world''s order has indeed decayed!"

    "Perhaps only by overthrowing this rotten world can a complete order be re-established—"

    Gu Yang''s eyes gradually became a lot more resolute.

    —

    "Your son ''Gu Yang'' has slain a martial artist of Blood Refining Perfection!"

    "Your son ''Gu Yang'' has come to a clear understanding of his true heart!"

    "Your son ''Gu Yang'' has deepened his comprehension of the Domineering Blade strike, his strength ever more refined!"

    Gu Qingfeng had just finished observing the True Intent Map, and the depletion of his mental power made him take a short rest.

    Therefore,

    he instinctively opened the information panel, wanting to see if there were any new updates.

    After all, the information panel would update every now and then, so it wouldn''t hurt to check it more frequently.

    However, this time, when he opened the information panel, Gu Qingfeng was taken aback by the refreshed information.

    Blood Refining Perfection?

    Had his son really become so audacious?

    Even Gu Qingfeng had not expected that Gu Yang could truly slay a martial artist at the Blood Refining Perfection level.

    However,

    compared to this matter, Gu Qingfeng was more curious about the identity of the Blood Refining Perfection martial artist that Gu Yang had slain, and what conflict had arisen between them.

    Immediately,

    Gu Qingfeng was not about to just sit idly by; he directly ordered his subordinates to trace Gu Yang''s movements and, in passing, to bring the other party to him.

    Before long,

    Gu Qingfeng held an intelligence report in his hand that explicitly contained news regarding the True Yang Sect.
