Not long after, Gu Yuan suddenly felt a stirring in his heart, opened his eyes, and looked toward a certain direction ahead.

Soon after, accompanied by a faint fragrance, a group of women drifted gently over.

These women were all graceful in appearance, with the leading woman being particularly pretty, slim and beautiful, her cultivation was only slightly inferior to Gu Yuan’s, at the Great Success Realm of the Golden Core.

She was dressed in palace attire, her clothes fluttering as if she were a celestial being.

Yet, despite the woman’s beauty, her eyes brazenly scrutinized him, revealing arrogance, and she snorted lightly, "Boy, who are you?"

How peculiar... Gu Yuan felt at a loss, did not rise, and lazily said, "You came here to find me on your own accord and insolently inquired about my identity. Why would I want to tell you?"

The woman’s charming face turned cold, she snorted, "You’ve got guts, daring to be insolent in front of me!"

She glanced coldly aside, "Forget it, considering your ignorance, I’ll tell you, just this once. I am the seventh celestial attendant under Granny Mei Hua, Roland. I’ve come here on granny’s orders to bring you to an audience with her. If you know what’s good for you, hurry and tidy yourself up to follow me!"

The seventh celestial attendant under Granny Mei Hua, Roland... an audience?

Gu Yuan sneered, "Interesting, Granny Mei Hua is a Yang Spirit expert, a pioneer on the path of cultivation, given her status, I might show some courtesy..."

"But you, just a maid, to put it bluntly, just a regular cultivator, at most someone who’s cultivated to a mere third grade Golden Core failure, dare to act arrogant before me, it’s truly unheard of, unseen..."

Upon saying this, Gu Yuan snorted coldly, "Scram! Go where you came from!"

In the next moment, the women felt a massive pressure emanating from Gu Yuan, causing their faces to change dramatically, retreating repeatedly.

A few of the women even whitened, then flushed, spitting out large mouthfuls of blood.

These women, usually relying on Granny Mei Hua’s name, acted without restraint, arrogant, never having suffered such grievance?

Each of them looked disturbed, enraged, loudly rebuking and cursing:

"Bold!"

"Insolent! How dare you be disrespectful to us!"

"To show us disrespect is to disrespect granny; this person should be executed!"

"Kill him!"

...

Leading Roland’s face was as dark as water, she naturally could see that Gu Yuan himself was not simple, his strength probably exceeded her expectations, quite difficult to deal with, but relying on the means given to her by granny, she hesitated momentarily, yet ultimately chose to act.

Roland immediately raised her hand to offer a basket magical treasure.

From which countless flower petals spilled, myriad purples and reds, blossoms scattered, engulfing fragrant waves, rushing over.

Yet within this flower fragrance, harbored a discreet, chilling killing intent!

These petals, each seemingly beautiful and soft, yet actually sharp within, capable of easily slicing Refined Gold Iron Mother.

The killing intent contained within could even cut through lower grade magical treasures.

"Original plan was to give you all a chance, considering Granny Mei Hua, but since you’re seeking death, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"

Seeing this, Gu Yuan snorted coldly, somewhat impatient.

He killed the Yin God Giant with no effort at all, let alone these ordinary Celestial Humans, Golden Core Great Cultivators?

Killing them would be as easy as killing a chicken.

Gu Yuan didn’t even glance at the surrounding attacking petals, raised his hand and seized hold of a five-colored Immortal Sword, glowing with brilliance, shining with a peculiar light.

Then, he simply raised the sword and swung it. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

In an instant, a five-colored sword light slashed out.

The sword light was fierce, overbearing, contained an extremely strong Sword Intent, cutting through the air leaving a long trace.

As it passed, those surrounding petals suddenly halted, then silently turned into dust, scattering in the wind, along with the hidden tricks within, all extinguished by this strike from Gu Yuan.

Roland felt a chill throughout her body, enveloped by a terrifying killing intent, this killing intent was far stronger than her basket’s, even her cultivation within became arrested, difficult to mobilize.

And the basket before her directly "popped" and exploded.

Her expression subtly changed, a jade pendant at her waist broke with a snap, yet the former killing intent disappeared without a trace.

Evidently, the jade pendant at her waist shielded her from that hit.

But Roland wasn’t pleased but astonished at this, because the jade pendant was given to her by Granny Mei Hua, said to withstand a full force strike from a Yin God Giant, and three to five full attacks from Great Cultivators.

However now, it was shattered by a single strike from Gu Yuan!

Granny Mei Hua surely wouldn’t deceive her, so quite clearly, Gu Yuan’s strike was even more powerful than a full strike from a Yin God Giant!

Thinking of this, Roland’s whole body was numb... she never expected the person before her to wield such terrifying combat strength!!!

She gritted her teeth, intending to perform an escape technique to flee.

It was at this moment,

Gu Yuan appeared before her, with an indifferent expression, his five-colored sword light already raised.

"Stop!"

Seeing Gu Yuan actually dared directly strike, without the slightest intention of showing mercy or holding back, Roland’s face changed dramatically, her whole body trembled, she urgently shrieked a threat: "If you kill me, granny will never let you go?!"

"Won’t let me go?"

Gu Yuan sneered.

Though he indeed felt somewhat apprehensive about Granny Mei Hua, since the opponent had bullied him, naturally Gu Yuan wouldn’t just sit idly by.

Moreover, the person before wasn’t Granny Mei Hua, but merely a common Golden Core, Gu Yuan naturally wouldn’t hold back.

He swung his sword, an extremely fierce sword light slashed out, directly cleaving Roland dead on the spot.

Roland couldn’t even let out a groan before being slain by the sword light, along with her Divine Soul and Physique, shattered, dissolved into ashes mid-air.

"Since you chose to strike at me, then you should prepare to be scattered in soul!"

Gu Yuan snorted coldly, his eyes devoid of regret or pity, instead filled with indifference and callousness.

There are always some people in this world who naively believe it should revolve around them, condescending and disdainful towards others, but alas... it’s only the thought of fools.

Once they provoke a real tough contender, facing imminent death, perhaps then they wake up, embarrassed and pathetic.

Roland was no exception.

Probably this Roland was adored by Granny Mei Hua, usually relying on Granny Mei Hua’s Yang Spirit prestige to act as a fox exploiting a tiger’s might, often bullying others with her power.

Ordinarily, others either couldn’t provoke her, or simply didn’t want to bother, and that was that.

But now provoking Gu Yuan, he even wants to kill Elder Chaotic Heaven, would he care about her?
