The Sky Tower Ruler
Episode 24

"There, sir. Let's." Let's." Luo Luo led Gu Lang towards the training room.

The calculation of time in the sky tower and the outside world was very different. Practicing inside the sky tower for one day, then it was the same as training in the outside world for an hour.

Gu Lang nodded in understanding at once happy to hear it. Luo Luo opened the door of that training room and made Gu Lang again dumbfounded.

Because the room was equipped with a spiritual aura gathering array, which made the spiritual aura inside the room very thick.

Of course it made Gu Lang even more happy, as it meant that he could raise his level faster than usual, if he were to train inside the sky tower.

Especially with the difference in time in the sky tower and the outside world, which can make him have more time to practice.

Gu Lang sat down cross-legged and began his training, while at the Gu family home there was currently a huge mess going on.

"Head of the family, how is this? What are we supposed to do? The other five great families have already surrounded the residence, and closed our access roads to escape."

Panic struck all the members of the Gu family, as the other five great families in the city of Biluo were now united to surround the Gu family residence.

No one knew what the reason the five great families had come together to annihilate the Gu family, but according to Xing Yan their goal was to slaughter the Gu family all the way to its roots.

"We have no other choice, we fight them together despite having to fight until death comes. Because the way of peace is no longer possible."

Gu Xing Yan burned the spirit of the entire Gu family.

"We Gu family are not cowards, let's fight them together, at least die in a struggle more honorable than die in helplessness."

It was true that some time ago, Gu Xing Yan had already proposed a path of peace between the Gu family and the other five great families.

But unfortunately, the peaceful path was not accepted by the five great families. It was as if there was someone behind the scenes who was already controlling them, and making them only able to obey.

Moreover, the relationship of the Gu family and the other five great families had never had any problems, before.

That makes more sense than any other reason.

In Gu Xing Yan's mind, as long as Gu Lang was alive then the Gu family had not been wiped out.

And he was also very sure, the son of his puppet will be able to avenge him someday.

"Gu Lang, I love you. As long as there is you, the Gu family will rise again, "his inner self.

Finally inevitably, all the members of the Gu family came out of the residence.

Moreover, the protective array installed to protect the residence, was already nearly destroyed.

The reason the five great families had to join was the Gu family that had powerful people in it, including Gu Xing Yan himself.

"Finally you came out too, Gu Xing Yan? Wh why? Have you given up, and are you willing to admit your defeat?!"

That thunderous-sounding cry made everyone from the five great families laugh, but it made the Gu family members wrathful.

To a cultivator, self-esteem was more valuable than anything. Living with self-respect, more honorable than dying humiliated with no resistance at all.

"I don't know why you attacked my family, Shu Zeng. But we Gu family are not cowards, we will fight you until the last second!"

That Gu Xing Yan's cry actually drew even more laughter from the five great families, as if they were nothing but a joke.

The current Gu family was just like a rabbit, struggling to escape the encirclement of a large group of wolves that were about to prey on them.

"Destroy their turtle shells, and finish them all!" shu Zeng exclaimed burning the spirits of his alliance members.

The strongest people of the five great families, united to destroy the protective array of the Gu residence.

After several experiments, the array was finally destroyed and the war broke out right then and there.

The difference in the number of troops, overwhelmed the Gu family. Moreover Gu Xing Yan who had to face the five strongest people from the five great families at once.

The sound of groans in pain, as well as the fishy smell of blood began to color the course of the war.

Many members of the Gu family had already been killed, until now only Gu Xing Yan was left a person who was still fighting against his enemies.

"Give up Xing Yan, there's no point in you fighting like that anymore. We don't intend to kill you, because we need you alive!"

Xing Yan was so shocked to hear that, as he initially thought his enemy wanted to finish off the entire gu family without exception.

But now they had instead said that they would let Xing Yan live, at least for a while.

But on the other hand, it also made Gu Xing Yan even more certain that there was indeed a great power controlling the five great families.

A figure behind the scenes who is able to order them to exterminate the Gu family and intends to make it a sandra.

Gu Lang who was training, suddenly stopped his training.

Something seemed to make him feel uneasy, and continued to make him anxious since then.

An uneasy feeling covered the recesses of his heart, as if understanding that a great disaster was befalling his family.

"What's this, why don't I feel good?"

But finally Gu Lang chose to ignore his anxious feelings, and went back on his way.

Because he had to get to Chuxuan city soon, and get the pills he was looking for to cure Xiao San.

A few days later, Gu Lang finally reached Chuxuan city.

Since it was getting dark and Gu Lang was hungry too, he chose to look for an inn.

In addition to resting and eating, he also wanted to find information about the life pills he was looking for.

"Welcome sir, how can I help you?"

"Bring me the best food you've got, and prepare a room for me."

"Good, sir." The servant lowered his head, and passed to prepare Gu Lang's order.

Gu Lang glanced towards the few people, who seemed to be disciples of the green dragon sect, when viewed from the uniforms they were wearing.

"Tonight the top-tier skill book will be at the auction in the Cuxiao pavilion, it looks like many people will be scrambling to get it."

"Of course, in our country this yellow ranking skill book alone is very rare let alone top rank."

"True, the book will definitely get the strong people to gather and fight over it, but even though it can't get those top-ranked skill books, there are still plenty of other good items as well right?"

Gu Lang who heard the talk of the green dragon sect disciples, thought of coming to the auction that the Cuxiao pavilion would hold.

Because there might just be life pills at the auction tonight, "Cuxiao Pavilion huh? Looks like I should go there."
