"Who are you?"
Gu Lin Fang sneers abruptly while taking note of his surroundings. Earlier, from the way this person spoke, he could already guess that he had companions.
"Who...am...I?" He stalls.
But the wretched looking man wasn't having it, His face contorted as a Black Qi oozed from his body.
Gu Lin Fang's eyes glowed red as his claws extended silently, His excitement getting the better of him due to the [wild] personality.
A colorless liquid hid beneath his claws like an assassin, ready to strike.
"A bloodline user?" Greed could be seen across his face when he looked at Gu Lin Fang, all he saw was...
"An opportunity sent by the heavens. I finally have something that can help me break into the Nascent soul realm!... All these years of waiting, finally paid off..."the wretched looking man couldn't suppress his excitement.
"Since you already brought yourself here, then I won't stand in ceremony... I'll be sure to forget about sending your complete corpse to your people"
You could hear the excitement in his voice as he charged at Gu Lin Fang.
Boom!!!
The fight immediately began with Gu Lin Fang being sent flying.
The Charge was a feint.
He crashes into the stone-paved floor with incredible force, then vomits a little blood.
This snapped him out of his [wild] state.
"F*ck ... This sh*t is really dangerous!" Gu Lin Fang cusses while consciously using [Calculating mind] to suppress his emotions.
The wretched looking man shows no mercy to recovering the Gu Lin Fang. A strange weapon flashes horizontally, aiming for his torso.
He manages to execute the Parry technique of the <Blood thirsty Bull's finger> before he was sent flying....
Bang!!
As soon as his foot landed, He squatted down, barely managing to evade the hulky object. A deep [] mark is carved into the stone wall behind him.
It was then he saw the weapon clearly.
A coffin made entirely of copper!.
However, this didn't change the most important question in his head right now.
Obviously the opponent was an eighth stage Auroras Core realm expert but he is able to oppress himself.
'could it be that, he's a Demon cultivator with a Boss template?'Gu Lin Fang continued guessing as he looked for an opportunity.
Qi flowed to his feet as he moved with <Banshee's footprint>, his opponent made a gesture like he was pulling something towards himself and the Copper coffin rushed back into his arms.
He held it above his shoulder like a cartoon character would hold an oversized great sword.
Eerie black Qi continued to ooze from him and the coffin alike until he smashed down with his coffin again.
Bang!!
Gu Lin Fang dodges lightly this time, appearing less flustered but he knows that a follow up attack was definitely coming. And so, he kicked the side of the now embedded coffin, creating some distance for himself.
But his efforts prove to be in vain as his enemy does the same, chasing after him.
'Tch I'm getting schooled!' Gu Lin Fang grumble inwardly but his malevolent grin never seized.
For the first time in a very long time, he was enjoying himself.
"I'll see what makes you tick, how can you be a Boss template and not me?!!"He roared inexplicably as he poked out in a strange manner, a slight red glow appeared on his finger tips.
Du! Du! Du!
Three successful hits on the chest, forcing his opponent to halt before he retreated.
Luckily he barely avoided the coffin with his unexpected retreat.
Gu Lin Fang circled the opponent silently while thinking, 'A cunning fellow eh?...'
"Who are you?, I, Gong Shuren does not remember offending you!!!" the wretched looking man, no, Gong Shuren questions suddenly while wiping blood from the side of his lips.
'Obviously stalling for time after getting hit by a skill from my legendary grades skill <Crooked war finger>.
It's only level two but managed to be effective on this fellow, as expected of an orange technique.
That skill alone had a paralysis effect and just like the other nine, can be used from a 17 meter range. Isn't this almost a gun?' Gu Lin Fang mused as he blew the tip of his index finger playfully, blatantly disregarding his opponents question.
'If I should hit him with the same skill at close range with my claw, would it stack up with my poison?'. Such thoughts continued to play in his head as he tried coming up with a plan of action.
Gu Lin Fang changed his mind and decided not to kill him, he was going to capture Gong Shuren.
'maybe when I complete this mission, I'll be able to go through the reputation store'.
After recovering, Gong Shuren wasted no time in lifting his coffin and running away.
But he couldn't get far from the already prepared Gu Lin Fang...
Du DU DU
The same move, but this time he aimed at Gong Shuren's legs. The latter lost the feeling of his left leg but Gu Lin Fang frowned instead.
'<Crooked war finger> takes way more qi than any of my other techniques, interesting'.
He grabbed Gong Shuren by the neck, making sure the stab him with his extended claws. His glowing red eyes hungrily looked at Gong Shuren from head to toe as he said,
"I'll be sure to check every-single-thing!" A sinister grin played on his lips as he injected more of his poisons into Gong Shuren's neck.
'I hope it's the right dosage though...' was what he thought casually before going back to inspect the coffin first.
The rage resource that had been building up due to combat, slowly calmed down.
He tries lifting the coffin but it didn't budge, so he pulled it into
the system inventory instead of the spatial ring.
Then looked at the soil that was located where he met Gong Shuren.
"it's indeed what I needed, so much resentment..." he says lightly before picking everything within his sight.
Shiiiing!!
Gong Shuren forces his body to move by some means as he charges at Gu Lin Fang with his mouth wide open.
Gu Lin Fang steps out of the way life a ghost, his body was slanted on the floor but somehow he was hovering.
He pulled Gong Shuren's stiff feet and collides into him with his shoulder.
Gong Shuren meets his tactless and frank charge with a knee that barely made it in time, but Gu Lin Fang's next choice was a thrust.
Puak!
That attack of unbelievable speed tears through the air, and plunges into Gong Shuren's abdomen.
With complete ruthlessness, his arm even reappears on the other side.
"... aiya, is this how lethal this skill is at close range?.
That looks painful, let me take it out for you." His voice akin to a demon as he spoke those final words.
While impaled, Gong Shuren looks at him incredulously, but Gu Lin Fang smiled at him, exposing all his white teeth.
Then he pulled out his arm and flings him to the side like a Ragdoll.
Gong Shuren felt like, even with all his strength...this might have still been the outcome, all His muscles suddenly bulged oddly, blood and Qi rushed towards his abdomen to stop his injuries from ending his life. Sadly he couldn't make any extra movement.
For a split second, Gu Lin Fang's movement stops as he noticed Gong Shuren's strange state.
He observed Gong Shuren with interest as he's squatted down next to him.
After a while, he went back to exploring the house while dragging Gong Shuren along.
Five minutes later, he was done emptying the whole place. He decided to use Gong Shuren's blood to write on the entrance stairs... "He came!..."
Nodding with satisfaction on the home work he had given, he left with the bleeding man.
'tch why isn't there magic, where I can simply abracadabra away all this filthiness' Gu Lin Fang grumbled as his nose kept twitching, he wiped the blood on his clothes.
Warning: there would be quite a lot of info dump on this chapter, I apologize.[9:48 pm]Gu Lin Fang appeared within the Garden with a frown.'There are no changes with the quest...' Confused, he walked to the mansion with the unconscious Gong Shuren on his shoulder."Eek!!...!! Greetings Lord Gu" A startled voice came from behind the door he just used to get in but Gu Lin Fang responded offhandedly, "Err...So it's Wei Fan"."Yes Lord Gu!" His surprised voice went up a notch, this made Gu Lin Fang frown in irritation."Will you calm down?!!""Yes...yes Lord Gu!!" Gu Wei Fan replies after taking deep breaths. His eyes remained on the body that was on his master's shoulder."Let me help you..."Gu Lin Fang glanced at the shaking fellow and ordered, "No need, Prepare some water for me.I'll be taking a bath shortly".Gu Wei Fan then bows as he watched Gu Lin Fang pass him before heading towards the
Once Gu Lin Fang was done tidying himself up, He wanted to call for Gu Li Cheng to meet him in the study but ultimately changed his mind upon noticing Gong Shuren was awake despite being immobile.At that moment, Gong Shuren, who was not aware of Gu Lin Fang's arrival, struggled to sit up.It was then Gu Lin Fang made his presence known by stepping on the wounded man. His eyes devoid of emotion as they glowed ruby red in the dim study.He cold says with a teasing grin, "That's right, struggle. Maybe You can die while you're at it, I'm in need of quality puppets after all!".- Glug!Gu Lin Fang smiled as he saw Gong Shuren swallow hard, "You really want to live huh"."..."'Hmm, I need him to tell me about the [Pan mansion].' Gu Lin Fang watched silently, watching every minute detail in his actions."Krr... what do you
"how could you fall for something like that?"Gu Lin Fang's voice trailed off before sighing, "Doesn't matter anymore".He stood up and fed Pan yu Xing with a pill while thinking about something he saw at the basic combat page.It's stated that During combat, reaction of the character's HP and MP consumption is shown briefly as animations to the opponent or those next to them.This is even so, for the aboriginals of this world.If HP falls below 50%, the character gets cold with a pale expression, this shows that there's something wrong and if it falls below 30%, itgets cold sweats, below 15% brings weakness and below 5% you are unable to move a muscle.Meaning, below 5% and your under a bleeding debuff, you can only watch yourself die slowly.Same goes for Qi...If the MP falls below 50%, the characterget goosebumps,
Warning: Fellow Daoist, this chapter will have another info dump, please be prepared...After finishing up with Gu Yu Xing, Gu Lin Fang had a servant lead him to a room to rest before continuing to study the system and other tutorials.It was already daybreak by the time he began rounding up with his study."there's just too many complicated things, I'm afraid if I was a player I would already frustrated.Too bad my life depends on learning everything learnable about the system and the world itself.Well, on another note, I doubt the players would have such a comprehensive system and privileges." He spoke softly while swiping the transparent screen.Now he has an in depth knowledge on reputation and could now develope an elaborate plan.This game world was set in a peri
Back in the Gu clan's study.Gu Lin Fang's face was filled with smiles as he thought, ' good I can finally go and finish my Zombie puppet.Wait!, What if she only has a problem with her cultivation and...'."Ju'er, How's your progress?!" He quickly asked the girl."You only want to check my progress incultivation?" Gu Linju asked speechlessly before pouting as she watched her old man'sExcited expression.She really couldn't connect him with a devil cultivator who would tread the skyRaining terror."Hmph father really doesn't trust me, your pills were really good, won't you at least trust your work?!" She spoke with a displeased tone."... this" Gu Lin Fang was dazed, 'I really wouldn't know, I really haven't made a single pill in my two lives.More than that, did she suddenly become whiny?'
Gulp!Gu Li Cheng swallowed hard and his brain finally clicked with understanding.'How did uncle become so young?, how did Lin ju'er suddenly breakthrough to the foundation establishment realm like the young stars of those great clans, despite being at a young age?.They became demon cultivators!, Do they want me to join them as family?... I'm very sure uncle might kill me right now, should I'His eyes dilated and he became visibly pale, He tried thinking of what to do but nothing came up."What are you thinking? Brother Li Cheng... Father your scaring him!" Gu Linju finally chose to diffuse the situation.Gu Lin Fang's eyes shined with delight, impressed he thought silently 'Good save!' while looking at the girl from the side.He quickly withdrew the pressure and walked down the stairs.Gu Linju then asked Li
Gu Lin Fang busied himself with the Corpse while explaining a few things to Gu LinJu. It was at this point, however, that something came falling down the stairs with yelp.This attracted the attention of the father - daughter duo as they stared at the fallen Gu Li Cheng with deadpan expressions.Gu Yu Xing's voice came from above the stairs as he greeted with a small bow, "Lord Uncle".Gu Lin Ju and Gu Li Cheng were taken aback by this development.Gu Lin Fang on the other hand was pleased with himself, 'that's it right there, a mini Gold Boss is bowing to me willingly...'"Ah yes, Yu Xing, you've come.I believe you are already aware of the auction tonight, what do you think?" Gu Lin Fang glanced lightly at Gu Li Cheng, he held his waist in pain but forced a smile upon noticing his uncle's glance.Gu Yu Xing, formerly known as Pan yu Xin
Later that day, at exactly 1pm.At an inconspicuous looking rice shop, Gu Yu Xing could be seen walking in.His hair was long and black, nothing like the disheveled mess from before. He is a young man of about 5.8ft with a well toned body of a warrior, perfectly fitted with the signature black Gong Fu robe with a 'Gu' on its upper back.It was almost the same style with what Gu Lin Fang and Gu Lin Ju were wearing but was still different. Due to their bloodline, he had a kind of seductive charm like Gu Lin Fang that made him seem trustworthy.Upon entering the rice shop, the customers quietened down while the staff looked shocked."BOSS!!" The shopkeeper calls out and the customers went about their business.The shopkeeper was a thick looking young man with bronze colored skin, which made it obvious that he was an external cultivator(Body cultivator) and he was by no means
