Chapter 51 Come to Die
In Qianlong Hall, Gu Wendi announced in front of everyone, "From now on, Gu Mingchuan will be your instructor. He will be responsible for teaching you martial arts--"

Before he finished speaking, the people below burst into warm applause and cheers.

Gu Mingchuan first defeated Li Mansong by using the weak to defeat the strong, and won the title of Minglong, making the courtesan pay tribute to him.

Not long after, he defeated Li Manjin of Gangyuan Realm and became the number one of the younger generation, unrivaled in the limelight.

He has already become the idol in the eyes of all the young people in the Gu family.

Gu Mingchuan felt a little regretful when he saw their reaction.

Why is it different from what I thought?

According to the script in his mind, one or two troublemakers will surely pop up and express dissatisfaction, and he can kill the chicken to scare the monkeys and take the opportunity to establish a new trend.

Gu Mingchuan took two steps forward and the scene suddenly became quiet.

Facing the excited and admiring gazes of these young people, he said loudly, "Do you know what the Gu family lacks most now?"

"Brave spirit!"

"What is courage? Courage is spirit, the leader of ambition!"

"Without courage, where is the martial arts?"

"If you just keep obeying orders and accept everything that comes your way, you will never become a strong person."

"The Gu family has been forced into a desperate situation. Anyone can come and step on them. Can you tolerate this?"

Below, Gu Mingjie's face flushed red, and he screamed at the top of his lungs, "No!"

The others also became excited after hearing this, clenched their fists, and shouted angrily, "No!"

……

Gu Wendi was shocked. He never expected that Gu Mingchuan would say such inflammatory words.

Young people are full of youthful vigor. How could they react when they heard these words?

I'm afraid it might even poke a hole in the sky.

He now wanted to slap himself. Why did he choose Gu Mingchuan to be the instructor?

This Gu Mingchuan seemed quite calm before, how come he suddenly became so radical?
However, now that things have come to this, there is no point in regretting.

He knew he couldn't stop it.

Now in the Gu family, no one can stop the man who can easily kill Li Jingcai.

……

"Peace survives when it is sought through struggle. Peace dies when it is sought through compromise."

Gu Mingchuan's voice was sonorous and could be heard from far away. "The more you give in, the more others will think you are weak and can be bullied. The more they will press forward and trample you into the dirt. Can you tolerate this?"

This time, everyone shouted in unison, "No!"

The sound was so loud that it almost blew the roof off.

Gu Mingchuan asked, "Next time if someone wants to bully you, will you kill him?"

Below, the young men were filled with murderous intent and shouted in unison, "Kill him!"

"very good."

Gu Mingchuan shouted, "This is the man of our Gu family. Remember, as long as the back mountain is still there, our Gu family will never perish. Let everyone know that we Gu family members would rather die than surrender."

"I would rather die than surrender."

"I would rather die than surrender."

……

The young men below seemed to be crazy, yelling wildly, tears in their eyes.

Even the cold-hearted Gu Wendi was infected by this fanatical atmosphere, which made him even more frightened. These young people would never give in when they encountered problems in the future.

it's over... it's over...

Given the Gu family’s current situation, if they fell out with the other families, the consequences would be disastrous.

……

Outside the door, Thirteenth Elder Gu Yunhui's chest rose and fell rapidly, and he looked distraught. He murmured, "Peace survives when it is sought through struggle, but it dies when it is sought through compromise... Fourth Brother, did I... did we really do something wrong?"

On a whim, he wanted to see how Gu Mingchuan trained these young men, but unexpectedly, he heard him say such shocking remarks.

This brought him a mental blow.

……

Seeing that the time was almost right, Gu Mingchuan stopped them and said, "Alright, the root of everything is still your own cultivation. If you don't want to be bullied, you must work hard to become stronger. From today on, you must practice to death."

"Yes!"

The twenty or so young men below shouted in unison.

Although he was called a teenager, there were actually several people who were older than him. However, in this world, the strong were always respected. He was at the Gang Yuan realm, so it was more than enough for him to teach them.

Gu Mingchuan spent half a day to find out the strengths of these twenty-seven people.

Then, we divided them into three groups, set a KPI, held a small competition every month, and then set up a last-place elimination system. Finally, we created a fastest improvement award and a best student award...

This combination of punches is enough to mobilize their enthusiasm.

As for daily training, he handed it over to three team leaders, Gu Minglan, Gu Mingjie, and Gu Mingyu.

Then he asked Gu Mingyan to be his assistant and be responsible for daily supervision.

He can just be a hands-off boss.

……

After Gu Mingchuan's encouragement, these young men started practicing martial arts as fiercely as wolves and tigers.

"This is the vigor that a young man should have."

He was very satisfied, and seeing that the time was almost up, he let them practice on their own and left.

Gu Wendi followed him for a long distance before he said tactfully, "Aren't those words a bit too radical? These people are the future of our Gu family. The Li and Fan families are worried that they can't find a chance to kill them. Isn't this just sending them to their deaths?"

Gu Mingchuan asked, "Do you think that for a family to rise, people must die?"

"But……"

Gu Mingchuan sneered, "What the Li family and Qinglong Gang are doing to us now is like cutting flesh with a blunt knife. They want to wear down the Gu family's bloodiness little by little and eventually pull out our backbone. In that way, even if the Gu family is still there, there will be no threat." "No, it should be that this has been their strategy towards our Gu family for hundreds of years. They don't kill you with one stick, but leave some room for us to see a glimmer of hope. We can only endure it and hope that a genius will appear among the younger generation to lead the Gu family to rise again."

"Over the past few hundred years, the Gu family has declined from being the most powerful family in Jiangzhou to where it is today. Are you still not awake?"

"They took advantage of your mentality. They were afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice, so they dared to be so reckless and give you a glimmer of false hope. Their purpose was to make the Gu family die slowly!"

Slow death?
Gu Wendi was struck by lightning, his face turned pale and his lips trembled.

Gu Mingchuan looked at him and said word by word, "Believe it or not, those people are more afraid of the extinction of the Gu family than you are."

After saying this, he turned and left, leaving Gu Wendi alone to digest it slowly.

……

Gu Mingchuan felt that the current Gu family was too weak and would definitely hold him back in the future. Otherwise, he would not bother to care.

He did all this so that the other members of the Gu family could stand up.

As for sacrifice, it is inevitable.

The aptitude of those twenty-seven young men was actually not bad. Although they could not be called geniuses, after practicing hard for more than ten years, they definitely had the potential to reach the seventh level of Gangyuan or above.

What they need is a strong self-motivation and the experience of life and death.

Ten years later, as long as two or three of them survive, there should be no problem supporting the Gu family.

Of course, it doesn’t matter even if they all die.

The Gu family didn't have much else, but they had plenty of people. A few years later, another group of young men entered Qianlong Hall.

……

To Gu Mingchuan's surprise, the next month was calm and peaceful.

No one came to trouble him.

There are always some conservatives in a family, and his radical remarks will definitely make some people unhappy.

Later, I found out that it was suppressed by Gu Wendi, Gu Wentong and the Thirteenth Elder.

"These three guys really don't give me a chance to show off."

He was a little doubtful.

Originally, he wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of a group of clan elders. These people had corrupt ideas, but they monopolized the right to speak. Without getting rid of them, the Gu family would not be able to revive.

"Not good!"

At this time, Shitou rushed up in panic, "The Thirteenth Elder...is fighting with the Li family."

Thirteenth Elder?
Gu Mingchuan was deeply impressed by this great-uncle, and it was this man who made him become an ascetic monk.

"Tell me slowly, what's going on?"

"Master Mingyan heard a member of the Li family insult you, so he got angry and started a quarrel with the other party. The two sides started fighting, and Master Mingyan was seriously injured. Then, the Thirteenth Elder appeared and killed the other party with one sword... one sword..."

Gu Mingchuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his thirteenth great uncle was such a man of courage.

He asked, "And then?"

"Then, several experts from the Li family came and besieged the Thirteenth Elder. Seeing that the two families were about to fight, Master, you'd better flee..."

Gu Mingchuan ignored him and asked, "Where is it?"

"... East... East City."

……

Gu Mingchuan used Qinggong to arrive at the East Market soon. From a distance, he saw the Thirteenth Elder covered in blood, propped up on the ground with his sword, and laughed wildly at the sky, "What a relief! I've been feeling aggrieved for decades, and today I finally got a good kill!"

There were several bodies lying on the ground.

On the roof on the other side, there were many onlookers.

From the Qinglong Gang, the Fan family, and the Jiang family.

Not far behind the Thirteenth Elder stood a group of Gu family members, each with a tragic expression.

"Gu Yunhui, you dare to kill someone from my Li family!"

Suddenly, an extremely angry roar sounded, and a figure suddenly appeared. It was Li Jinghe, the head of the Li family.

At this moment, his face was ashen, his eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he no longer had the cunning and composure of the past.

Gu Yunhui cursed, "Li, who do you think you are? You are the grandson of a bandit, and you think you are worthy of being called a noble family and on the same level as my Gu family? Bah, I have disliked you for a long time."

"you wanna die!"

Li Jinghe squeezed out these words from between his teeth, and suddenly attacked, slashing towards Gu Yunhui with a sword.

Gu Yunhui accepted his death calmly.

At this moment, a figure appeared in front of Gu Yunhui, raised his sword to block, and actually shattered the sword energy.

"Fourth brother!"

When Gu Yunhui saw the person standing in front of him, his eyes became moist.

This person is Gu Yunze, the head of the Gu family. He straightened his body, full of vigor, and shouted, "If you want to kill my Gu family, ask this old bone of mine first."

Li Jinghe said grimly, "Gu Yunze, are you determined to be an enemy of my Li family?"

Gu Yunze laughed loudly, threw away the sword in his hand, sat on the ground, and said, "I am half buried in the ground, my life is worthless, you can take it."

"All the Gu family members present here, listen up and come and die."

This loud shout was as loud as the clouds.

I saw a figure leaping over, "Gu Wendi is here to die."

Another figure appeared, "Gu Wentong is here to die."

"Gu Minglan is here to die."

"Gu Mingyu is here to die."

……

As the names came up, the young men of the Gu family sat behind Gu Yunze without hesitation.
