Chapter 50: Chief, you can't hold back your smile

[You killed an enemy who was extremely hostile to the Gu family, and your cultivation reached the eighth level of Gang Yuan, and you received 2000000 ambition points]

Gu Mingchuan felt happy when he saw this reminder.

Killing the remaining three tigers of the Li family would be enough for him to break through to the ninth level of Gangyuan.

The reason why he didn't kill the person next to Li Jingcai was that, firstly, that person's martial arts skills were obviously not from the Li family, and killing him might not necessarily gain him any ambition points.

Secondly, he also needed a witness to let everyone know that the murderer was a young man named "Wang Dong".

From now on, as long as he changes into his current appearance and shows up, won’t the masters of the Li family come running over to die?

This saves him from having to look for them one by one.

He praised himself for his wit.

Not long after, Gu Mingchuan returned to Minglong City. With his strength, it was easy for him to climb over the city wall without being discovered.

……

There was a horse-drawn carriage parked at the entrance of the alley opposite Gu Mingchuan's house.

When Gu Wendi in the carriage saw Gu Mingchuan coming back, still wearing the same clothes he had in the morning and looking safe and sound, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

It took less than an hour, and he came back so quickly, and his clothes were not torn. In his opinion, he definitely didn't do anything.

Either they didn’t find the person, or after weighing the pros and cons, they didn’t dare to take action.

In his opinion, no matter how strong Gu Mingchuan was, even if he could kill Li Jingcai, he would not be able to escape unscathed.

He had witnessed Li Jingcai's swordsmanship with his own eyes.

Gu Wendi had been worried just now that if Gu Mingchuan failed, the consequences would be disastrous.

"That's for the best. Assassination is still too risky."

he thought.

However, he could also understand Gu Mingchuan's painstaking efforts.

"I guess he doesn't have much time left."

Gu Wendi thought somewhat sadly.

The hard-working practitioners of the Gu family would always return to the back mountain when they reached the ninth level of Gangyuan.

The few who can persist and reach the Shenzang realm will soon leave the family and practice in seclusion in the back mountains.

It's like a spell.

Gu Mingchuan's cultivation level is at least at the eighth level of the Divine Power Realm, which is close to this limit.

He must have wanted to eliminate a few powerful enemies for his family before leaving.

"Ugh--"

Gu Wendi couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this.

……

A few hours later.

Gu Wendi suddenly received an order and the clan leader summoned him back to discuss matters.

"Did something serious happen?"

He was a little worried, but the messenger didn't know what it was about, so he hurried over.

When we arrived at the meeting hall, almost all the elders and important managers of the family were there.

The patriarch sat there with a heavy look on his face.

Someone asked, "Chief, why did you call us here so urgently? What happened?"

"Hurry up, everyone is almost here."

"Tell me, we can handle any bad news."

……

Everyone in the meeting hall was talking at once until the patriarch stood up and everyone fell silent.

Gu Yunze said with a sad face, "I just received some sad news. Brother Li Jingcai of the Li family was beheaded by someone 20 miles away from Minglong City. His body has just been brought back."

"Brother Li, you died tragically!"

Everyone below was stunned.

The lobby was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

what?
There was a loud bang in Gu Wendi's head, and his heart seemed to be in turmoil.

Li Jingcai is dead?
Could it be that he really killed Li Jingcai?

At this moment, there was a loud noise in the hall, "Li Jingcai is dead?"

"Who did it?"

"Good kill."

"This damn bastard is finally dead."

……

Soon, cheers were heard in the lobby.

Among the five tigers of the Li family, the one who was the most powerful against the Gu family was Li Jingcai. Hearing that he was dead, everyone was very happy.

Gu Yunze said angrily, "Shut up, the Li family is our ally. How can you gloat over the death of your ally? Brother Li's death is a huge loss to us. It really hurts me..."

Someone in the audience said quietly, "Chief, you can't hold back the smile on your face any more."

"Nonsense, I am just grieving..."

After a while, everyone asked about the details and learned that a young man named "Wang Dong" was responsible for the murder. They then started discussing who this "Wang Dong" was.

Gu Yunze noticed that Gu Wendi was distracted and asked, "What did you think of?"

Gu Wendi suddenly woke up from his dream. Seeing the clan leader's gaze, he subconsciously dodged and said, "I was thinking that such a master has come to Minglong Mansion. I'm afraid he has bad intentions. It's better to be careful."

"Oh."

Gu Yunze looked at him with some doubt, but did not ask any more questions. He discussed the next countermeasures with others.

Gu Wendi finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt his back wet with cold sweat.

Listening to these people's discussion, an extremely strange idea came to his mind.

What would their expressions be if they knew that the person who killed Li Jingcai was Gu Mingchuan?
……

…………

The death of Li Jingcai caused a huge stir in Minglong City.

For the Li family, this was undoubtedly like removing a pillar.

As for the other families, they were both happy and worried. They were happy because the Li family's strength was greatly weakened. They were also worried about how the Li family's strength would be weakened and how they would fight against the Qinglong Gang.

The happiest group is naturally the Qinglong Gang.

The turmoil in the outside world had no impact on Gu Mingchuan's life.

He is just an ascetic, and no one will pay attention to him at this time.

At this time, Gu Mingchuan was studying the porcelain bottle. Inside the bottle was a golden pill. As soon as he pulled out the cork, the aroma of medicine filled the air.

Just by smelling the fragrance of the medicine, he felt that the internal energy in his body became extremely active, and his cultivation seemed to have improved slightly.

“It must be something good.”

He made a judgment and immediately put the cork back into the bottle to prevent the loss of the medicine.

However, you can't just take pills casually.

Who should I ask for identification?

Gu Mingchuan thought about it and decided to PASS the clan leader first. In case he became greedy, he would have to teach him a lesson, which would damage his dignity as the clan leader too much.

Have it.

……

The next day, Gu Mingchuan went to the prefectural government to pay a visit to Prefect Guo.

It can be seen that the governor is in a good mood.

He asked some casual questions about swordsmanship and then left.

Then he went to find Guo Yi, the daughter of Governor Guo.

Guo Yi was obviously very wary of this lecherous man, "What do you want to see me for?"

"Miss Guo, do you recognize this thing?"

Gu Mingchuan took out the porcelain bottle and opened it.

Guo Yi took a look at it and said in surprise, "Golden Scale Pill? Where did you get such a precious pill?"

"I picked it up. What is the function of this Golden Scale Pill?"

"Humph." Guo Yi naturally didn't believe his nonsense, but still told him the effect of this pill, "Only one pill is enough to allow a Gangyuan Realm warrior to break through a small realm."

It’s such a good thing?
Gu Mingchuan's eyes lit up and he said, "No wonder the children of those aristocratic families have such ridiculously high cultivation levels."

Guo Yi was unhappy and said, "This Golden Scale Pill is only effective the first time you take it. The second time you take it, its effectiveness is less than one hundredth. Moreover, many people in the noble families disdain to take this kind of pill. If you do that, your foundation will be unstable. When you reach the Divine Storage Realm, there will be some hidden dangers, and you will have almost no hope of reaching the Dharma Image Realm in the future."

After Gu Mingchuan figured out the effects and hidden dangers of this elixir, he said, "Please keep it a secret for me, Miss Guo."

"I'm not the kind of person who likes to gossip."

That's good.

……

"Unfortunately, this Golden Scale Pill is only effective for the Gang Yuan Realm."

Gu Mingchuan felt a little regretful, but the value was also huge, equivalent to 5 million discipline points.

Later, when he reached the eighth level of Gangyuan, he could take one pill and directly break through to the ninth level of Gangyuan, which was equivalent to saving five million discipline points.

Equivalent to two and a half Li Jingcai.

Killing Li Jingcai actually gave me 7 million discipline points, what a huge profit.

……

a few days later.

Gu Mingchuan officially took over the position of coach of Qianlongtang.

Since he could get ambition points by killing an enemy, could he also get ambition points by personally teaching a few masters?

So, he said something to Gu Wendi and took up the post quickly.

Being a coach is not difficult. You don't need to teach by hand. Just find a few more assistant coaches, strictly enforce discipline and assessment, and give them some encouragement. Then you can be a hands-off boss. After a period of time, when their strength improves, you can harvest ambition points.

How simple.

PS: I will ask for monthly votes on Monday to get on the new book list.
