Chapter 3373: It Was This Sentence That Caused the Problem
Lin Moyu hadn't thought about needing Old Tree's protection, but he didn't refuse his goodwill either.
Indeed, with his cultivation level, if he went over, he could very likely be in danger.
The space beside him distorted as he summoned Su Pu.
"Go take a look."
At his command, Su Pu responded and rushed over.
Through Su Pu's vision, Lin Moyu could also get a full view.
With Su Pu's realm, as long as he didn't participate in the battle, mere aftershocks couldn't kill him. As long as a Revived didn't die, no matter how severe the injuries, it didn't matter. They could recover after being recalled.
Through Su Pu's vision, Lin Moyu saw the great battle.
A thousand-meter-tall giant, wielding a huge battle blade, was fighting against a person in black.
Divine runes flashed on the battle blade. With each attack, a formation would form, attacking along with the blade.
The formation's function was simple - to replicate the attack.
However strong the battle blade's attack was, the formation would replicate an equally strong attack, thus doubling the combat power.
The Gu family ancestor's blade strikes were like lightning, thousands of blade shadows every second, completely enveloping the black-robed person in blade light.
Lin Moyu recognized at a glance that the black-robed person was the Black Blood Fist Saint.
He swung a pair of black iron fists, clashing hard with the Gu family ancestor's battle blade. The sharp blade couldn't cut through his fists.
The Gu family ancestor's attacks were mostly blocked by his fists. The few attacks that landed on his body only made it tremble slightly, without causing any substantial damage.
The Black Blood Fist Saint's attack power wasn't as strong as a Black Blood Sword Saint's, but his defense was far stronger than a Sword Saint's. Now seeing it with his own eyes, this point was further confirmed.
His defense was indeed incredibly strong. The Gu family ancestor was a genuine Great Dao realm being. In Lin Moyu's view, he was only stronger, not weaker, than Old Tree.
Even Withering and Flourishing Elder, facing the Gu family ancestor's string of attacks, if not killed, would be severely injured.
But the Black Blood Fist Saint was unscathed, showing how strong his defense was.
Old Tree arrived, throwing out his walking stick. In an instant, it transformed into countless vines falling down, immediately entangling the Black Blood Fist Saint.
The Gu family ancestor shouted angrily, "Slash!"
The divine runes on the battle blade flashed brightly. The blade's aura instantly strengthened several times. A sharp aura swept out, immediately causing countless wounds on Su Pu's body.
The attack hadn't even landed yet, the aftershocks hadn't even occurred, but just the aura had caused superficial injuries to Su Pu.
"So strong!"
Lin Moyu had Su Pu move further away. He was afraid that if Su Pu couldn't withstand it and really died there, he would suffer a great loss.
What he worried about didn't happen. The Gu family ancestor's attack was extremely focused, turning into an incredibly sharp blade light that passed through the Black Blood Fist Saint's body.
The Black Blood Fist Saint's body was violently cut into two halves.
Boom!
The Black Blood Fist Saint's body exploded, transforming into countless black blood lines that pierced through space, escaping to the distance from another dimension, quickly disappearing.
Old Tree said in a low voice, "Still able to escape as usual."
The Gu family ancestor put away his battle blade, his body rapidly shrinking back to normal size.
He looked at Old Tree, "Why did you come down? What's the situation up there?"
It seemed like he was questioning, but anyone could hear the concern in his words, as well as the joy of reuniting with an old friend after many years.
Just hearing this one sentence, Lin Moyu knew that the Gu family ancestor should be someone cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
Old Tree chuckled, "For me to be able to come down, naturally I've already dealt with that fellow up there."
"This time you've fallen behind. Tell me, how many times did he escape from you?"
The Gu family ancestor snorted lightly, "You old fellow could deal with it? I'd believe that when pigs fly!"
Old Tree smiled, "Believe it or not, it's the truth."
The Gu family ancestor clearly didn't believe it. "Stop talking nonsense. What did you come for?"
Old Tree said, "There's a young fellow who wants to see you. This old man is just showing the way."
Lin Moyu walked over and bowed to the Gu family ancestor, "Junior Lin Moyu greets Elder."
The Gu family ancestor looked Lin Moyu over. "You're only at fourth level Dao Venerable. How did you get here? Who opened the formation for you?"
Before Lin Moyu could speak, Old Tree had already snorted lightly, "Old Gu, why are you so impolite? The young fellow is at least this old man's friend. Be a bit more courteous."
The Gu family ancestor glanced at Old Tree. "How am I not courteous?"
Old Tree clicked his tongue, "Whether you're courteous or not, you know yourself. Young friend Lin, this fellow's temper is a bit strange. After all, his surname is Gu (古, meaning 'ancient'), so it's normal for him to be a bit strange (古怪, guguai). Don't mind him too much. His name is Gu Hanyu. You can call him by name directly, or even call him Old Gu."
Lin Moyu naturally could hear that Old Tree was actually speaking for Gu Hanyu.
He was afraid that Gu Hanyu would be impolite to Lin Moyu, and then Lin Moyu would turn and leave.
Old Tree knew very clearly that without his help, they would have a hard time killing the Black Blood Fist Saint's remnant soul.
As long as the Black Blood Fist Saint's remnant soul wasn't killed, they couldn't leave and couldn't regain their freedom.
Lin Moyu naturally wouldn't call him by name directly. And after knowing Gu Hanyu's temper, he wouldn't get angry because of some of his words.
Lin Moyu said, "The current Holy Lord of the Cold Water Holy Land, Gu Hanbing, opened the formation for this junior."
Gu Hanyu raised an eyebrow, "It seems they still followed this old man's instructions and established a power there."
The history of the Cold Water Holy Land wasn't as long as the time Gu Hanyu had existed.
The Nine Extremes Glacier appeared during the Origin Catastrophe, while the Cold Water Holy Land appeared long after the Origin Catastrophe ended.
During this time, other powers were outside the Nine Extremes Glacier.
After the Cold Water Holy Land appeared, those powers were driven away, and the Nine Extremes Glacier truly belonged to the Cold Water Holy Land.
Lin Moyu said, "The Cold Water Holy Land has been established for many years. The Nine Extremes Glacier is within the Holy Land. The Gu family is also doing well. It has now become a top power among humans. Elder Gu doesn't need to worry."
As he spoke, Lin Moyu took out the bloodline jade tablet. It contained Gu Hanbing's bloodline. Gu Hanyu would definitely be able to sense it.
Gu Hanyu took the jade tablet and glanced at it. His expression unchanged, he still looked at Lin Moyu. "Although this old man didn't give specific instructions, the Nine Extremes Glacier isn't a place just anyone can enter. Why would the Gu family open the formation for you?"
Lin Moyu said, "This junior and the current Holy Lord of the Cold Water Holy Land are in love and want to marry. But the Holy Land has a rule that the Holy Lord cannot marry. This rule was said to be established by you. The Gu family descendants don't dare to change it without permission."
"So this junior came down to find you, hoping you could change this rule."
Gu Hanyu's expression changed slightly. "Nonsense! When did I ever make such a rule!"
Lin Moyu asked in surprise, "You didn't make it?"
Gu Hanyu said decisively, "Of course not! Men and women in love, of course they can marry. What does it have to do with being Holy Lord or not? Even in the Great Dao realm, finding a Dao partner is a common thing. What's the problem? A Holy Lord isn't some unique treasure that can't be married off!"
Old Tree, listening on the side, laughed heartily, "I like what you're saying. Your temper is sometimes useful."
Lin Moyu thought for a moment. "The Cold Water Holy Land indeed has this rule, said to be passed down from ancestors. The source should be you. Think again, what did you say back then?"
Gu Hanyu frowned, thinking. Although countless years had passed, a Great Dao realm being's memory wouldn't be lost.
He said softly, "Could it be that sentence?"
Old Tree asked with a smile, "Remembered something?"
Gu Hanyu said, "Back then, I only instructed them to do their best to ensure bloodline inheritance. Could it be that this sentence caused the problem?"
Slap!
Old Tree slapped his thigh, "That's right! It was this sentence that caused the problem!"
