Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor-Chapter 518 - 515 Golden Mountain Pavilion

In the heart of Ruyi City at this moment, there was a vast palace complex. At a glance, countless palaces stood tall and densely packed, as well as being extremely luxurious. Anyone who had seen the imperial capital of the Dongling Kingdom would realize that the degree of luxury here was only slightly less than that of the Dongling Kingdom’s palace.

These palaces seemed to be built upon a mountain with different heights and sizes, and there was even a small lake surrounded by the countless palaces. In the lake, one could see schools of seemingly ordinary fish.

Many women stood by the lake, some middle-aged, some young, some children, and some old women.

They each held various objects in their hands, and whenever something was thrown into the water, it would provoke a scramble among the fish.

Within the palace complex bustled a scene akin to a market, and the people passing by were all dressed in the garments of the Ruyi Sect.

The Ruyi Sect was both a sect and a family.

This family was known as the Gu Family.

And the mountain on which the palace complex was built was called Heavenly Mountain.

This place, which was once barren, had become thriving after the establishment of the Ruyi Sect.

It should be said that Ruyi City was just a city, while this place was the true residence of the Ruyi Sect!

In a palace near the lake, close to the windows, several people were sitting at this moment.

These people were divided into two groups, one wearing the clothing of the Ruyi Sect, and the other... dressed in uniform black attire.

On the chest of the black clothing were two prominent characters—Golden Mountain!

These people were from the Golden Mountain Pavilion, a Fifth-Rate Sect!

Coincidentally, among the many sects that had defected, there was a Fifth-Rate Sect called... the Golden Mountain Pavilion. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

On the Ruyi Sect’s side, a middle-aged man sat at the forefront. His appearance bore some resemblance to Gu Yunlei, and he was dressed in a golden robe with dragons and phoenixes embroidered on it, exuding an aura of majesty.

Behind him stood a host of Ruyi Sect powerhouses. When they looked toward the people of the Golden Mountain Pavilion, they were chatting and laughing, but deep in their eyes, there was a profound wariness.

Leading the delegation from the Golden Mountain Pavilion was a middle-aged man who appeared to be in his forties.

This man, known as ’Dixue,’ was the Grand Elder of the Golden Mountain Pavilion, and although he seemed to be in his forties, he had actually lived for more than three hundred years.

"Has Sect Master Gu considered the matter I have spoken of?" Dixue asked, smiling.

His expression seemed amicable, as if discussing a deal, yet his words carried an aggressive undertone.

Moreover, while speaking, Dixue’s eyes occasionally flashed red, and with each flicker, a strong scent of blood would emanate from him. This scent made the middle-aged man from the Ruyi Sect frown in secret but he did not show it outwardly.

The middle-aged man from the Ruyi Sect was none other than the Sect Master of the Ruyi Sect, the Family Head of the Gu Family, Gu Yunlei’s father, Gu Qingtian!

"Regarding this matter..."

Gu Qingtian pondered for a moment, then chuckled heartily. Before he could speak up, suddenly a Gu Family member approached and whispered a few words into Gu Qingtian’s ear.

People of the Ruyi Sect were divided into two levels, one level was the disciples of the Ruyi Sect, and the other was the direct descendants of the Gu Family.

Although both belonging to the Ruyi Sect, the members of the Gu Family clearly held a much higher status than the disciples of the Ruyi Sect.

At this moment, hearing the words of this clan member, Gu Qingtian’s brows furrowed slightly before he said, "Stand down for now."

"But..."

The clan member hesitated, wanting to say something more, but was cut off by Gu Qingtian’s bark, "You are ignorant of what’s good for you, can’t you see that the Ruyi Sect has honored guests present? A bunch of night rats, let them be arrogant for the time being. Once I am done discussing with our guests, I will take action to sweep them away."

"Yes..."

With a light sigh, the clan member glanced at Dixue surreptitiously before stepping back.

And standing behind Gu Qingtian was a youth.

Even in such a circumstance, this youth, who was embracing a woman in his arms, incessantly teased and moved his hand upon her body.

This youth was none other than Gu Yunlei, and the woman was Han Mei.

It must be said, Han Mei indeed possessed some skill. Usually, the girls Gu Yunlei fancied would bore him after a few days, but Han Mei had tangled with Gu Yunlei for over a month, and judging by his expression, he appeared to have not yet tired of her, his eyes brimming with desire.

"The Young Sect Master of Ruyi Sect is really in good spirits..." Dixue glanced at Gu Yunlei and gave a light cough before speaking.

"The unfilial son, lacking the making of great achievements, I, Gu, am also extremely angry, but helpless..." Gu Qingtian shook his head and sighed without intervening.

Seeming to hear their conversation, the desire in Gu Yunlei’s eyes diminished slightly as he said to Gu Qingtian, "Old Man Gu, is what that clan member just mentioned about the Phoenix Sect causing trouble?"

"Do you still have the face to speak?"

Gu Qingtian turned his head and gave Gu Yunlei a fierce glare.

Gu Yunlei, however, was not at all intimidated and instead sneered, "They are merely an Eighth-Rank Sect; why should you be upset because of them? Let them shout outside, could they possibly tear down our Ruyi City?"

Hearing this, Gu Qingtian glared at Gu Yunlei again but said nothing more.

"Ruyi Sect, what kind of connection do you have with Phoenix Sect?"

Dixue’s eyes flashed as he quickly followed up with a smile, "In that case, if Sect Master Gu can agree to what I have proposed, I, as the leader, promise that the disciples of Golden Mountain Pavilion I brought today will take action to help the Ruyi Sect eliminate the scoundrels from the Phoenix Sect right outside. How about that? It would also let Ruyi Sect see what kind of benefits will follow if you agree to my terms."

Gu Qingtian remained composed, yet his mind was weighing his options.

"Sect Master Gu need not have so many concerns. Now, there are many sects that have turned traitor, and even the Top Ten Super Sects have started to retract into their shells. Those First-Class Sects have even concocted some kind of nonsensical Cultivator Alliance, thinking they can withstand the onslaught of my Demon Army?"

A red light flared again in Dixue’s eyes as he continued with a smile, "If you join us, you will immediately receive the Grand Demon Magic. I’m not exaggerating when I say that after cultivating it, one’s strength can double in a short time. Add to that Ruyi Sect’s Dragon Fusion Art, the immense benefits of such an alliance need not be further elaborated by me, right?"

Gu Qingtian looked up at Dixue, still hesitating.

"Let’s do this."

Dixue stood up, speaking solemnly, "To show my sincerity, if Sect Master Gu accepts this proposal, I promise that when my Demon Army spreads to this area, the first to be annihilated will be the Phoenix Sect. How about that?"

"This is the final gesture of goodwill from Golden Mountain Pavilion. If Sect Master Gu still does not agree..."

As he spoke, a hint of red light emerged in Dixue’s eyes.
