The Sky Tower Ruler
Episode 63

He planned to tell his friends if he managed to avenge her and return safely, lest they panic upon hearing the news of Gu Lang's death, he said, which will certainly soon spread widely in the city of Biluo.

As Luo Luo said earlier, the moment she had pulled Gu Lang forcefully into the sky tower. "Better Gu Lang die for now, sir." Gu Lang was very surprised when he heard Luo Luo saying that he thought telling her to just die because it was too weak. "That's not what I mean, sir. I mean, your identity is dead, not yours." Gu Lang did not so throw words of annoyance that had previously piled up at the end of his tongue when he misinterpreted Luo Luo's words, which actually did sound so ambiguous.

"I still don't understand." Gu Lang looked at Luo Luo who was lying on the bed, due to the severe enough injury to his soul, so he needed to absorb the rest of the soul left behind by the old master in the room, so he needed to absorb the rest of the soul left behind, which can only be absorbed by him.

"The mysterious person behind the massacre of your family seems to be aiming to lure you into their lair, sir. That's why they left a letter saying that your father was in their hands, with no other clue. Even I'm sure, that person knows that you will be able to finish off the people from the five great families and get a clue about it."

Gu Lang gasped when he heard Luo Luo's words which made him unable to digest all of it directly.

How could they have estimated everything so precisely? How could they be so sure if Gu Lang would take revenge on the five great families? How could they be so sure if Gu Lang would be able to slaughter all five great families and obtain information about him? So what is their real purpose? Why would they want to lure him?

So many questions that come to his brain. But Gu Lang still had not found a single reason, which could make a young man who was considered as trash seem to be the target of those big men.

But looking in terms of Luo Luo who did know a lot of things, she believed and finally decided to make Gu Lang figure, Gu Lang, to die for everyone except for those he trusted of course. Because he did not want to make his friends sad and panicked to hear the news of his death.

The journey from the Yin residence to the crescent moon sect, was indeed quite far away, because the position of the Yin family residence that memeng was on the northernmost side while the crescent moon sect was on the southernmost side, the Biluo city.

There was no word to relax and rest in Gu Lang's dictionary, because his father couldn't wait too long. He must immediately save his father who is still being held captive by that mysterious person, who is somehow in his current state. But at least, he was sure that his father was still alive for now after hearing Luo Luo's remark earlier that said.

"Sir, just calm down. If they really want you to come there, then they will definitely let the hostages stay alive to make sure that master really comes as he wants."

Already half a full day, the two young men continued to accelerate at high speed to immediately get to the crescent moon sect.

"Gu Lang, can we rest in the village ahead of it tonight?" asked Bong Quan who was still racing his horse to compensate for the speed of Gu Lang, who was riding Pang.

Gu Lang sighed harshly at Bkng Quan's question, "It turns out the stamina of the Xi family squad leader is very bad. It's only fitting that you never develop, even though you master the weaponry." Said Gu Lang with a little bit of care, even though it was actually just a joke. But Gu Lang's ever-flat face, made his joke sound bland and was no longer a joke when it came to other people's ears.

Just now Gu Lang would deny that he did not need to eat and drink, his immortal stomach had already told him the truth.

Bong Quan let out a crisp laugh when he heard Gu Lang's stomach sound that his voice had already defeated the broken radio splashing into the water.

"Hey, what are you laughing at? That's not funny at all!" snapped at Gu Lang who was trying to make Bong Quan afraid, but unfortunately Bong Quan looked completely unconcerned while still trying to hold back his endless laughter.

Even though Gu Lang's face looked flat, he also smiled inwardly at Bong Quan's laughter.

"I forget the last time I laughed since then sincerely, not the evil laughter that came from a grudge or the sad laughter because of circumstances." Inner Gu Lang who remembered everything that he had experienced, whether it was in his previous life, or also in this life.

Because he always lived in deprivation, despair, humiliation and ridicule, until he even forgot how to laugh sincerely. Even though he forced himself to laugh, all he showed was a covered-up laughter of wounds and a burning grudge.

Finally, Gu Lang and Bong Quan decided to spend the night in the village they passed. They were looking for a restaurant that also provided a place of rest for immigrants like them.

"Welcome gentlemen. Can I help you?" A servant looked down respectfully as Gu Lang and Bong Quan who were already wearing black robes with hoods, to cover their faces.

"I want one medium-sized room, with two beds. Also give me the best food you've got." Gu Lang replied which made the servant immediately nod his head and told him to wait.

Gu Lang invited Bong Quan to occupy a table in the corner, because there was the most strategic place to find information.

Some men, who when viewed from his uniform are soldiers from the residence of the mayor, the city of Biluo.

"Have you heard? Last night, all the higher-ups in the five big families died in the hands of the golden masked swordsman, that scum of Gu Lang."

"Of course I heard it too. But I still can't believe that it's really Gu Lang, who's notoriously useless."

"Why are you talking about the dead?" sahut someone who seems to be the leader of the group.

Brak!
