After Gu Changqing walked over, just when the gatekeeper thought he was alright, Gu Changqing suddenly turned around and thrust out his spear. The void was shattered, and a terrifying abyss rift was pierced through it, which was extremely frightening.
The gatekeeper was shocked and tried to scream, but found that he couldn't. Then, he realized that his throat had been pierced by the other party.
"Snap!"
Gu Changqing flicked the tip of his spear to the side, and the gatekeeper's head was severed from his body, flying off and gushing blood.
Then he collapsed to the ground with a thud, unconscious.
"To die at my hands is enough for you to brag about for the rest of your life." Gu Changqing snorted coldly and strode in.
"This... Senior, what brings you to our sect? I am deeply sorry for not greeting you properly. I hope you will punish me..." An elder ran out from the mountain and said tremblingly, his words barely coherent.
His name is Wang Chaotian, the Grand Elder of Law Enforcement of the Divine Dragon Sect. He wields real power and influence, and ordinary people dare not provoke him.
But at this moment, in front of Gu Changqing, he was like a dog with its tail between its legs, a smile on his face, extremely humble.
"Oh? I never thought there would be someone in the world who would willingly ask me for punishment. Fine, then I'll grant your wish. Cut yourself once. Remember, you have to cut yourself in half with one stroke, and make sure the two halves are aligned. Don't accidentally cut off the right side. I really want to see how good your swordsmanship is." Gu Changqing glanced at the man and said indifferently.
Hiss~~~
Wang Chaotian shuddered violently, his body trembling as if he had been electrocuted.
"What, are you unwilling to accept punishment? Tsk tsk, this is really strange. Didn't you ask me to punish you? I have already done as you wished. What do you mean by not moving?" Gu Changqing's voice suddenly turned cold when he saw that he did not make a move.
Wang Chaotian cupped his hands in greeting and said in a trembling voice, "I don't know how our sect has offended you, senior. Please enlighten me."
"Oh? Are you blind? Didn't you see I'm wearing Qingyun Sect's attire?" Gu Changqing gave him a look, telling him to figure it out himself.
Wang Chaotian then realized that the other party was indeed wearing the Qingyun Sect's attire. He had been so focused on being scared that he had overlooked this detail.
He immediately understood what was going on.
A disciple from the outer sect named Long Jiu, because his cousin was a Daoist, usually acted recklessly within the sect. Many people avoided him when they saw him, and he also caused a lot of trouble outside. A few days ago, it was said that he had offended a disciple of the Qingyun Sect, but now...
"hiss!!"
Wang Chaotian gasped sharply, his face turning pale.
He quickly cupped his hands and said, "You want to kill Long Jiu? He lives in the main hall on the back mountain. Shall I, this junior, guide you there?"
"Get lost, why are you changing the subject? Do I need you to lead the way if I want to find someone? Enough nonsense, just cut yourself in the back, or don't blame me for being ruthless." Gu Changqing said expressionlessly.
Wang Chaotian dared not speak again and turned to leave.
"Trying to escape? Heh, no one has ever managed to escape from me before. If you can escape, I'll just find a block of tofu and smash my head against it today." Gu Changqing sneered, then waved his hand, and an overwhelming pressure instantly imprisoned the man in place.
Then, with a flick of his wrist, numerous wondrous and mysterious runes appeared in his palm, exuding a mysterious and ancient aura, incomparably sacred and vast.
With a "bang," Gu Changqing slapped Wang Chaotian on the head. Wang Chaotian couldn't even dodge and was hit directly. His whole body was compressed layer by layer and flattened into a meat pie.
Then it exploded with a bang, shattering into pieces.
"If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences." Gu Changqing said this and continued walking forward.
"Holy crap, who's here?"
"I don't know, but judging from the Daoist aura and divine light emanating from him, my God, this person is definitely no ordinary person!"
"Wait a minute, could he have caused the strange phenomenon just now? Otherwise, how could he have such a strong Daoist aura on him?"
"It's him, it's him! The images that the Law Enforcement Elder sent before his death were the ones that caused the strange phenomena in the heavens and earth!"
"Hiss! It really is!"
Many disciples along the way felt their scalps tingle as they watched Gu Changqing walk past, sparking heated discussions.
Many elders rushed over upon hearing the commotion, but upon seeing the person, they trembled and retreated to the sides, leaving a corridor in the middle, too afraid to speak.
Gu Changqing glanced at the people on both sides and gave a slight snort, which immediately shocked them and filled them with extreme panic.
Gu Changqing didn't say anything and walked straight over.
Before long, Gu Changqing arrived at the main hall of the Divine Dragon Sect. It was located in a place with excellent feng shui, surrounded by mountains on all sides. The entire hall faced the sun and was bathed in brilliant sunlight. The rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth was overwhelming. It was clear that the location was very good.
The main hall was also quite impressive, constructed entirely of golden bricks and tiles, each one incredibly valuable—enough to pay ten thousand outer disciples for ten years.
Gu Changqing stepped through the gate and quickly arrived at the head seat. He plopped down on the seat and then waved his hand, creating an hourglass.
He summoned the hourglass, sending it flying into the air where it hovered motionless, with only the sand inside dripping down, drop by drop.
He then looked around and said calmly, "This hourglass lasts for about an incense stick's time. Within that time, I want to see everyone from your sect gathered here, whether they are outer disciples, inner disciples, or even the sect leader or a lowly servant. Everyone must come here; there is no choice. Do you understand?"
As the sound faded, several middle-aged men in long gold robes at the scene felt a jolt in their hearts, quite frightened.
They were all core figures of the Divine Dragon Sect, holding positions similar to those of the Law Enforcement Elders, wielding immense power and authority.
Upon hearing these words, everyone was deeply moved. They looked at each other, bewildered.
His face even turned deathly pale.
He even started to have second thoughts.
One of them quickly said, "Please wait a moment, senior. We'll go find it right away."
"You'd better not even think about running away. This place has been sealed off by me. Not even a toad can escape. You don't want to experience what happens when you anger me, do you?" Gu Changqing said with a smile, stroking his chin.
"Yes, yes, senior, please rest assured, I will do my best to call everyone and I will never run away!" The man was greatly shocked and quickly clasped his hands in thanks.
