C4350 Four City Lords!
C4350 Four City Lords!
“This is…” Gu Feng was stunned for a moment, and he was slightly confused.
Gu Lan Yue was rather sharp, and she noticed something. She glanced at Gu Chang Sheng before glancing at Qin Miaoyu, and she hurriedly asked via voice transmission, “Madam Miaoyu, is our Patriarch injured?”
“It’s fine. He’s fine for now. I’ll leave some medicinal pills with him. You guys just need to buy them for him and take them. He still needs to recuperate.”
Qin Miaoyu said with a calm expression, and she didn’t say anything else.
Although Gu Lan Yue was suspicious, she didn’t ask any more questions. She nodded quickly. “Yes.”
Qin Miaoyu smiled and nodded before standing up. The injuries on Gu Chang Sheng were too severe, and she was powerless to do anything about it. Besides helping him stabilize his injuries, she couldn’t do anything else. The other medical officials were more than capable of handling this matter, and she was prepared to leave.
As for the idea of currying favor with Gu Chang Sheng, she didn’t have any.
After all, there were three Immortal Realm experts in Violet Cloud City, and their strength was world shocking. As a member of the Qin Clan, she didn’t need to curry favor with anyone.
Besides, the current Gu Chang Sheng was heavily injured, and it was unknown if he could fully recover. It was too difficult.
“Madam Miaoyu, I’ll escort you,” Gu Feng stood up and took the initiative to say.
“That’s fine as well.”
However, at this moment, a commotion arose. Everyone present raised their heads to look at the sky, and they noticed two extremely powerful auras approaching. They were very familiar with each other.
Qin Miaoyu's expression turned cold. She focused her gaze and saw that it was Chen Xiao and Marquis Zi Jin who were flying over.
"Greetings, Marquis Zi, Third City Lord."
Qin Miaoyu bowed her head in greeting.
When the others saw this, they also stood up and bowed, "Greetings, Marquis Zi, Third City Lord!"
Many of the Gu Clan members were extremely nervous, and they looked up at the two people above them.
Now that Heavenly River City had been destroyed and their clan had been destroyed, they had become rootless duckweed that had nowhere to go. They no longer had the pride of the past, and when they saw Marquis Zi Jin again, their aura naturally became much weaker.
In their hearts, they still had a little hope that they could stay in the Violet Cloud City.
For a moment, many of the Gu Clan members looked at Gu Changsheng.
Gu Changsheng smiled valiantly. With Gu Lanyue's help, he stood up with a tremble and cupped his hands, saying, "Marquis Zi Jin, it's been a long time. How have you been?"
With a thought, Marquis Zi Jin immediately noticed Gu Changsheng's injuries. He was actually so heavily injured.
"How could his injuries be so severe?" Marquis Zi Jin asked Chen Xiao through divine sense.
"The person he fought with was holding a precious metal sword. It should be a Mysterious Heaven Spirit Treasure, and its power is extraordinary. That was why Gu Changsheng was defeated so miserably."
Chen Xiao replied.
Marquis Zi Jin's face was filled with realization. "So that's how it is. A Mysterious Heaven Spirit Treasure with a metal attribute. No wonder."
On the surface, he remained calm and replied, "I'm still fine. It's just that you don't look too good."
Hearing this, Gu Changsheng smiled bitterly and whispered back, "This is not the place to talk. Leave me some face."
Hearing this, the smile on the Duke of Zijin's face became even wider, and he said, "Alright, as you wish, let's go up to the sky and have a chat. How about it?"
"Alright."
Gu Changsheng agreed and nodded.
Immediately after, under the shocked gazes of everyone present, the Duke of Zijin and Gu Changsheng turned into two rays of light and flew into the sky above their heads to have a secret discussion.
When Gu Feng saw this, he was very worried, "The injuries on the Patriarch's body, this, won't worsen, right?"
Gu Lanyue sighed. She also knew that Gu Changsheng did not want to lose face in front of his clansmen, so he chose to find the Duke of Zijin alone to have a secret discussion.
It could be imagined that in order to seek shelter for the remaining clansmen, even the aloof Gu Changsheng had to lower his head in the face of the cruel reality.
"Captain, can we do this?" Gu Lanyue looked at Chen Xiao, her eyes filled with unease.
Chen Xiao chuckled, "Don't worry, the problem shouldn't be too big. Since things have already come to this, City Lord Gu is not a fool."
"Right." When Gu Lanyue heard this, she felt a bit more at ease. Immediately after, she sighed heavily and said, "I never thought that in a single day, the Heavenly River City would be broken. It's all Gu Chengquan's fault for suddenly betraying us. If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't have been in such a state of panic, and the Heavenly River City wouldn't have been broken so quickly. More than half of the family died, and the hateful traitor."
Although Gu Chengquan was already dead, she still could not vent her anger. Her teeth were itching with hatred.
Gu Chengquan had committed many evil deeds, harming many people, and harmed many people of the Gu Clan.
Chen Xiao's face was expressionless. He only shook his head and said, "Gu Chengquan is guilty, but he shouldn't be the one to bear the responsibility, right?"
"This..." Gu Lanyue's face changed, becoming deathly pale, and she was completely speechless.
Seeing this, Gu Feng patted her shoulder and comforted her, saying, "Captain is right, but don't think too much. Now is not the time to be sad. You have to reflect on yourself and not let such a tragedy happen again."
"Yes, you are right." Gu Lanyue agreed.
Very quickly, the two of them recovered and silently raised their heads to look up at the sky, waiting.
Just as Chen Xiao thought that he would have to wait for a long time, he saw two light spots quickly descend and stop in front of him. It was the Duke of Zi Jin and Gu Changsheng.
The Duke of Zi Jin's eyes were filled with light. He was not angry, but he was imposing. He swept his gaze around and said in a loud voice, "I announce that from today onwards, Gu Changsheng will be the Fourth City Lord of the Violet Cloud City. He will be residing in the Violet Cloud City."
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
Even Chen Xiao was a little surprised. This was a situation that he had expected, but he did not expect Gu Changsheng to be so straightforward.
Hearing this, Gu Changsheng knelt down on one knee and replied, "I am willing to serve the Duke of Zi Jin."
Although he was kneeling on one knee, it was enough to show his determination. For the sake of his clansmen and for the sake of the future peace of the Gu Clan, he had to give up his pride and bow his head to the Duke of Zi Jin.
Although he was unwilling and unwilling to accept this, he knew what was best for him.
“Patriarch, you can’t kneel.”
“Patriarch.”
“Patriarch.”
The Gu Clan clansmen were all moved when they saw this. Some of them even sobbed, their eyes red and their faces filled with sadness.
They knew that the reason why Gu Changsheng was willing to do this was for them.
If it was only Gu Changsheng, even if he was heavily injured, he would not need to bow his head to the ground in such a humiliating manner.
For the sake of the clan, he had missed this chance once, and he could not make the same mistake twice.
Thus, Gu Changsheng knelt down decisively.
“Patriarch.” Gu Lan Yue’s eyes were bloodshot, and her heart ached. Her vision blurred.
“Patriarch.” Gu Feng subconsciously clenched his fists.
For the sake of the clan, for the sake of the survival of his clansmen, even Gu Changsheng, who was an immortal-level powerhouse, had to kneel down in humiliation to show his obedience.
This scene was extremely shocking to him, and he was speechless for a moment.
