Su Mo Yu had completely suppressed Gu Jian Men.
The tip of the Mo Yu Sword in his hand was gleaming brightly against Gu Jian Men's forehead.
However, he sensed something and his expression changed drastically in an instant.
Then.
Su Mo Yu pulled out one of the seventeen umbrella-bone swords and stuck it into the ground.
"Ling Yun Gongzi, this is the sincerity of the Dark River. If Gongzi changes his mind, you can throw this sword out of the courtyard anytime. Our people will wait for Gongzi for seven days, awaiting your return!"
After Su Mo Yu finished speaking.
He put away the Mo Yu Sword and the umbrella-bone swords in his hand. His fingers twitched slightly.
He retracted the seemingly invisible threads in the air and tied them around his waist.
Then.
Su Mo Yu took out a ferocious and terrifying red mask. After putting it on, he disappeared into the courtyard.
"Hehe, no wonder. It turns out he was a 'puppet' of the Dark River. It's no shame to lose!"
Gu Jian Men chuckled self-deprecatingly amidst the wind and rain.
Meanwhile, Su Mo Yu.
Had already appeared before the black and white twins.
Looking at Xiao Cheng Xuan and Xue Ying Ye Yu.
Su Mo Yu felt his pupils constrict and his heart race.
Because the two in front of him.
One in a black robe and one a handsome young man.
He couldn't see their cultivation at all.
Those who could hide their cultivation from him completely.
At the very least.
They were at least in the Realm of Unbound Heaven.
However, it was obvious.
The black-robed figure with a terrifying aura of iron and blood was this young man's bodyguard.
"Sir, while I was away, you bullied Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai like this. That's not the behavior of a true gentleman."
Unsure of the situation, Su Mo Yu could only test them with words.
"Su Mo Yu, the leader of the Dark River's headmaster's direct assassin team. Even if the Dark River's headmaster was here, he wouldn't dare to speak to me like this. You have some courage."
"I'm quite interested in the Mo family's devious arts of the Dark River. These Yin and Yang twins, who came from 'the Furnace,' I'll take them away."
Xiao Cheng Xuan's words.
Caused Su Mo Yu's face behind the mask to change drastically.
He wanted to unsheathe the Mo Yu Sword in an instant.
But he stared at Ye Yu with extreme trepidation.
Then, as if he thought of something.
Su Mo Yu spoke with a hint of a smile in his voice:
"You know about 'the Furnace,' then you must also know the loyalty of Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai to the Dark River. They won't go with you."
Hearing Su Mo Yu's confident words, Xiao Cheng Xuan smiled:
"I said they will, so they will."
"Really? Xiao Hei, Xiao Bai?"
Then, under Su Mo Yu's stunned gaze.
The white-haired loli and the black-haired girl's originally lifeless eyes now seemed to have regained a bit of clarity.
They actually knelt respectfully before Xiao Cheng Xuan.
They spoke in unison:
"We are willing to follow our master away!"
With that said.
Xiao Cheng Xuan strode toward the Gu family residence.
The twin loli girls followed respectfully behind him.
Su Mo Yu's throat moved, as if he wanted to say something.
His eyes were filled with danger, and the Mo Yu Sword in his hand was ready to move, ready to chase after them.
"Swoosh..."
The sword in Xue Ying Ye Yu's hand unsheathed slightly, a terrifying blood-red sword light flashed.
"Just a puppet of the Dark River. You are merely a firefly before Gongzi. Don't mistake yourself!"
Ye Yu's hoarse voice lingered.
His figure followed Xiao Cheng Xuan away.
On the spot.
Su Mo Yu was full of shock, his whole body as if struck by lightning.
He wanted to move, but a mouthful of blood spurted out.
He was already seriously injured by the blood-red sword intent just now!
.........
In the Gu family residence.
The drizzle had finally stopped.
Gu Jian Men, wearing a loose-fitting long robe, his hair disheveled.
He stood under the dripping eaves.
Staring at the long sword left by the Dark River, he was lost in thought.
"Gongzi, the Miss and Patriarch of the Yan family have arrived today! Do you need to go and meet them?"
The guard asked Gu Jian Men.
"To meet or not to meet, it doesn't matter anymore!"
Gu Jian Men shook his head.
The sudden visit from the Dark River made him a little confused.
If he had chosen to throw the sword out of the house.
Then, he would immediately gain the powerful support of the first assassin group in the empire, no longer isolated and helpless.
But that way.
He would forever be a puppet of the Dark River.
The so-called Ling Yun Gongzi would probably spend his entire life in the shadows.
Cooperation?
It was just the Dark River's ruthless manipulation!
Just then.
A gentle voice reached Gu Jian Men's ears:
"Gu Jian Men, your elder brother Gu Luo Li once took up the position of Qingzhou Prefecture Prefect when he was young. He once asked someone to calculate his fortune. The fortune-teller said 'he could die for the country, dying on the battlefield, wrapped in a horse's hide. He could die for his family, dying in a lonely house, with his cold bones uncollected. He could live for himself, but his family would all die and he would be alone.' I wonder, have you ever calculated your own fortune?"
Under Gu Jian Men's gaze.
A 谪仙公子, two black and white girls, and a black-robed mysterious man!
Four figures.
Appeared silently and without a sound in the residence.
Just like Su Mo Yu before, Gu Jian Men's heart was already churning with a tempestuous storm.
He couldn't see through the 谪仙公子 and the black-robed man at all.
Gu Jian Men could only pretend to be calm and composed, and he chuckled self-deprecatingly...
"Of course I've calculated my fortune. The fortune-teller said that I have grand ambitions in life, but I am destined to be a lonely eagle, and my death will not be a glorious one!"
