Chapter 123 Male Loser
Hearing their captain's characteristically arrogant remark, the lightly armored female warrior in the team covered her mouth and chuckled, "Aotian is still like a child!"
They were students from Yanzhou Academy, who were on a mission at the foot of Tianshan Mountain when they received a notification from the Professionals Association that a rift in the void might appear there, so they rushed to their aid.
Gu Aotian looked displeased. He had been unhappy for the past few days ever since that transfer student from Longyou came to Yanzhou Academy and stole all his thunder. He had been very unhappy for the past week!
The crew-cut shield warrior in the group sighed and said, "The Grand Elder of the Gu Clan has been guarding Yanzhou for three hundred years, and no new Void Realm Rifts have appeared in the entire Yanzhou. I didn't expect that Senior Gu Tong'er had just passed away—"
The blue-robed mage sighed, saying, "If it were just the ethereal beasts of the Yanzhou Realm, that would be fine. The highest level in the Yanzhou Realm is only Silver. But I'm afraid even the neighboring Oasis Realm—"
"Pah, pah, such unlucky words!"
Gu Aotian snorted coldly, "I don't care if they're from Yanzhou or the Oasis, as long as they dare to show their faces, I'll slaughter them all!"
He stared at the dismembered remains before him, a domineering and arrogant smile on his face: "How can a human city tolerate such beasts running rampant?"
At this time, their small team was not the only one in the city to receive the message from the Yanzhou Professionals Association.
For the past three hundred years, the Great Yu Dynasty was a feudal imperial system. Eighteen years ago, it was changed to a parliamentary system, with upper and lower parliaments managing national affairs. However, many old systems have not changed. In order to resist the Void Beasts, the Great Yu Dynasty has set up three lines of defense.
First, there are professional associations and colleges throughout the country, which serve as the first line of defense for Dayu.
Following them were the clan forces, similar to local sects in the world of fantasy martial arts, who co-governed the region with the garrison, representing the official power, as the second line of defense for the Great Yu.
Finally, there is Xingye Prefecture, which serves as the last line of defense for the Great Yu Dynasty, and is responsible for patrolling on behalf of Heaven.
Before the disaster struck, high up in the capital of Yanzhou, at the end of the meeting, news of the battle, like blood pumped from a heart, quickly flowed through the meridians and reached the professionals in several cities such as Luntai, Quxing, and Lulou.
Regardless of which defense line they belong to, all should take action.
The first to take action were none other than the Gu clan, a super-powerful clan based in Yanzhou, and the Tianshan Guild, a professional guild they had established.
A large number of professionals dressed in Tianshan Guild attire quickly launched disaster relief efforts and engaged in fierce battles with the virtual beasts that appeared in the city.
However, at that moment, a strange movement came from underground.
"W-what happened?"
Everyone on the street lost their footing, and the next moment, the ground in front of them tore open like cloth, leaving a huge gash.
To the horrified gaze of the team, a withered but thick giant arm stretched out from the bottom of the abyss, and then a huge body crawled out from underground.
"boom--"
It was a huge creature made of rotten wood and withered bones, shaped like a centipede. The half of its body that emerged from the ground was almost as long as this street!
At this moment, professionals in the city or on their way saw such a monster from afar and stood frozen in place, their blood running cold.
The crew-cut warrior, his face filled with disbelief, exclaimed, "Green, the Loulan Bone Station in the Oasis!"
Gold-grade Void Beast, Loulan Bone Station!
They were the closest professional squad to the monster, and the mere thought that this terrifying creature before them was an enemy filled them with helplessness and despair.
Becoming a Silver-level team at this age makes them the pride of the nation, able to look down upon the entire younger generation of Yanzhou.
But they were only at the Torch level, while what appeared before them now was a genuine Gold level Void Beast!
Between the Flame Realm and the Star Cocoon Realm lies a transformation as different as that between a dragon and a snake, and the same is true between a Silver-level Void Beast and a Gold-level Void Beast; it is a contest of a completely different scale.
Moreover, among the gold-level void beasts, Loulan Bone Station is among the most powerful, requiring at least several Star Cocoon Realm experts to eradicate.
"Mom, Mom—"
"It's over, Luntai is finished—"
"Help, help me—"
At this time, there were still many people in the city, but with the appearance of the huge monster, Loulan Bone Station, they were plunged into even greater panic.
They are professionals; in such a chaotic situation, escaping would be effortless for them.
"Ao, Aotian, I, we—"
Among the fleeing civilians below, some were collapsing, some were crying, and some had numb and desperate expressions. Gu Aotian's body was also trembling, but his face was smiling domineeringly and arrogantly.
Then, facing the colossal creature about to unleash its carnage in the city, he uttered words that left his teammates reeling: "Hey, big guy, your opponent is here!"
As he spoke, he floated into the air and unleashed his skill once again, a dazzling display of sword light and shadow.
However, let alone killing this monster, even his true-type virtual beast from across the Atlantic, which had spent over a hundred million to acquire offensive mental techniques, couldn't even manage to cut off one of the monster's arms.
But the monster's attention was clearly drawn to him, allowing the people below to escape in all directions.
Gu Aotian, who was confronting the "Loulan Bone Station", felt his hair stand on end and his heart pounding wildly.
He knew his actions were crazy; he was only at the Flame Realm, yet he dared to attack a Gold-level Void Beast. In the eyes of others, this was tantamount to courting death.
But he didn't think so. He believed that someone with the talent of "strong luck," someone who was hailed as a once-in-a-century talent in his clan, someone who should be loved by the whole world, could not possibly die in a place like this!
"roar--"
The monster roared, its enormous maw opening towards him.
There was no way to dodge it; my body froze!
Death was imminent, yet the boy continued to laugh wildly.
Just like that day at Yanzhou Academy, when he faced a transfer student from Linjiang, even though the other student won the competition, he believed that he had never been defeated!
"boom--!!"
Just as that abyss-like maw was ten meters away from Gu Aotian, a sudden change occurred!
Like a meteorite impact, a monstrous figure descended from the sky and punched Loulan Bone Station in the head, smashing it to pieces!
Large swirling clouds of dust filled the air as an old man with a bare chest and a mustache stood in the deep pit.
One strike, and a Gold-level Void Beast was blown to pieces? The professionals in the city who noticed this scene were immediately invigorated. Although they were too far away to see clearly, they were sure it was a big shot from Yanzhou!
The robust old man, arm in arm, emerged from the swirling dust and looked at the young man who had fearlessly led away the Loulan Bone Station for the sake of the city's people.
"Well done, young man. If you hadn't lured this beast away from the crowd, I wouldn't have been able to make a move."
"Not dead yet! That Loulan Bone Fortress wasn't so easy to kill. It chose to be decapitated and regenerate, burrowing underground!"
After the old man with the mustache, a girl of middle school age appeared. The little girl had her hands in her pockets, and a fluffy, wide hood covered her silver hair, revealing only her delicate and cute face, which looked quite pleasing.
As the feeling of being locked on disappeared, Gu Aotian behind him gasped for breath.
Facing a Gold-level Void Beast alone, even with his confidence, he did feel the approach of death several times just now.
But he still survived. Indeed, the world revolves around him!
Several companions behind him rushed over anxiously at this moment.
Suddenly appearing before them were a burly old man and a middle school-aged girl wearing a thick coat.
"Gu Aotian, are you fucking an idiot?! All you do all day is do stupid things!"
"Aotian! Are you alright?!"
"Even if you're going to take action, you should at least discuss it with us first!"
When everyone arrived, they saw the two people who had suddenly appeared in front of them.
"This, this gentleman is—you are Ning Xiu, the garrison commander of Yan Prefecture!?"
The soldiers in the group recognized the robust old man in front of them as Ning Xiu, the garrison commander of Yanzhou and a warrior of the Frost Moon Realm!
"That's wonderful, Commander Ning! You're actually in LT County today!"
Ning Xiu laughed heartily: "Not bad, not bad! You young people are all very good, truly worthy of being called the finest youths of Yanzhou!"
Gu Aotian, born into the Gu clan, didn't pay much attention to the Yanzhou garrison commander. However, when he noticed the cute little girl beside him whose face was only partially visible, his usually domineering and arrogant handsome face suddenly became somewhat flustered.
"Wang, Wangshu, you, you've come too—"
Shen Wangshu exclaimed in surprise, her cute brows furrowed as she looked at the boy in front of her, pondering for a moment, but she couldn't recall who he was.
"My grandfather is Gu Qingtian—"
Shen Wangshu suddenly realized, "So you're Gu Qingtian's grandson! Your name is—"
Although she responded to him, Shen Wangshu was constantly thinking about who Gu Qingtian was. Judging from the name, he should be from her deceased husband's side, but how could Shen Wangshu possibly know all the members of such a large and prosperous clan as the Gu family?
However, as a divine cultivator, she had an excellent memory. As the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, she knew almost everyone in the Gu family genealogy.
Gu Qingtian was from the sister's family of her husband's cousin's daughter-in-law—in short, a relative of her deceased husband who, although also a member of the Gu clan, was probably not even remotely related to her!
The boy hesitated for a moment, then said, "I... my name is Gu Aotian!"
Upon hearing this, the garrison commander of Yanzhou exclaimed, "So you're a prodigy from the Gu clan! No wonder—"
However, Gu Aotian didn't even glance at her, still looking at the girl in front of him: "When I was in junior high school, you were still in the Gu clan's territory, and you taught me swordsmanship—"
Gu Aotian's companions looked at him with disbelief at his shy appearance.
They had no idea how arrogant and domineering their captain was. Even when facing the principal of Yanzhou Academy, this kid acted like he was the best in the world.
Moreover, many talented girls at school confided in him, but he always looked down on them. He never showed this boyish side.
What they didn't know was that Gu Aotian wasn't born into the Gu clan, but rather a prodigy from a collateral branch.
I was thirteen years old that year. In the clan's martial arts competition, I stood like a lackey, but my fighting spirit was at the third level.
In short, it was during his most dejected time that this girl, who was the same age as him, suddenly appeared, smiling and asking him why he was so gloomy—and then accompanied Gu Aotian through his most desolate period.
Although he later found out that this girl was actually a Frost Moon Realm expert, and according to age and seniority, she was his fourth grandmother—he was heartbroken for a whole year, and then vowed to seal his heart and lock away his love, and focus on becoming stronger!
But at this moment, encountering his childhood sweetheart again, he couldn't help but feel excited.
"Oh my, it's you, my little one! You've grown so much! I didn't even recognize you!"
"————" Calling herself Fourth Grandmother or something is completely unnecessary!
Hearing the middle school girl call herself "grandmother" and her white hair and youthful face, the members of the Aotian Squad realized that the person in front of them was very likely Shen Wangshu, the Frost Moon Realm sorcerer of the Shen Clan and the strongest healer in Yanzhou!
With two Frost Moon Realm experts here, LT County should be safe.
The garrison commander of Yanzhou stroked his chin, pondering, "Is this the White Storm? It's truly eerie. Although I haven't felt the chill, I still feel a strange unease."
Gu Aotian had a lot to say to Shen Wangshu, whom he hadn't seen for many years, but now seemed like the wrong time to speak.
Ning Xiu looked at Shen Wangshu and asked, "What do you think of this awful weather, Sister Shen?"
"Eh? Are you asking about me?"
The girl was dressed in thick and gorgeous robes, her small face, no bigger than a palm, was wrapped in a hood, making her look as cute as a little animal.
"It's really cold! Luckily, I brought some warm clothes with me when I went out, otherwise I'd probably catch a cold when I got back!"
She stood with her hands on her hips, a hint of smugness in her eyes. "I bought this dress in the summer, thinking I'd have to wait until winter to wear it. I never expected to have the chance to wear it now!"
Having worked together for many years, Ning Xiu knew Shen Wangshu's personality; she would always seem a little out of touch with reality, whether it was a big or small matter.
"Sister Shen, let's leave this to the professionals who have come to our aid. We should head to the Eastern Tianshan Mountains now and see what the Divine Mother Cult is up to."
"No, that won't work!"
Shen Wangshu squinted and said in a nonchalant tone, "There are seven giant centipedes underground in LT County right now. If we leave, this city will be destroyed in less than a minute!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Aotian's team was horrified. There were now seven monsters, hundreds of meters long, that had appeared in the underground of the city.
Upon hearing this, the garrison commander of Yanzhou's expression darkened slightly. "Is that so? I understand—"
He ripped open his clothes, revealing his muscular physique. "I'll have to trouble Sister Shen to get them out of here first—"
"Okay! But—"
Shen Wangshu squinted at Ning Xiu, looking him up and down with a cute expression, and asked, "Little Ning, isn't it a bit too much pressure to face seven Gold-level Void Beasts at once?"
"Seven?"
"But there's nothing we can do about the pressure; the situation is a bit urgent—"
"Wait, wait a minute—"
"One, two!"
Ning Xiu was about to say something when, in the blink of an eye, the world changed.
In an instant, he appeared ten miles away.
Before he could even see his surroundings clearly, darkness fell overhead—seven mountains were crashing down upon him.
That wasn't a mountain, it was centipedes, each hundreds of meters long, their bodies piled up, layer upon layer, completely blocking out the sky.
The dark blue carapace segments stood side by side, with barbs along the edges. They swam, intertwining and separating, blocking all the paths around them.
Hundreds of pairs of eyes, all green, were looking down in unison.
The garrison commander of Yanzhou swallowed hard. He wasn't afraid of the seven gold-level void beasts. Although dealing with them would take some effort, it didn't put much pressure on him.
He just couldn't understand whether a Frost Moon Realm cultivator could really send seven Gold-level Void Beasts ten miles away at once.
