His voice grew louder and louder, filled with endless hatred and murderous intent, as if he had gone mad.

Gu Xinghe had been clinging to a last sliver of hope.

He clung to the hope that perhaps his wife hadn't been destroyed, or that the Han family had simply taken the jade coffin and disposed of the body elsewhere.

After all, the jade coffin was no ordinary object, and the corpse might have been carrying some treasures.

As long as the body is still there, he has hope.

But at this moment, even the last glimmer of hope was completely extinguished.

The guest of the Han family admitted it himself.

The body was burned.

Han Jiangchen even considered killing him to silence him.

All of this is crystal clear.

Han Jiangchen tried one last time.

He stepped forward and said urgently, "Fellow Daoist Gu, you must calm down!"

This person is a spy!

He deliberately infiltrated my Han family to sow discord! Don't believe him!

His tone was almost pleading.

As the head of the Han family, when had he ever been so humble?

But faced with a peak Integration Realm cultivator who had gone completely mad and was nearing the end of his lifespan, he had no choice but to do this.

He can't gamble with the entire Han family.

But Gu Xinghe didn't want to listen anymore.

He slowly raised his head, and his bloodshot eyes were devoid of any reason.

A terrifying killing intent swept through the entire city of Haicheng.

Those who hadn't had time to escape were all trembling with fear.

Many people who originally wanted to watch the spectacle ran frantically out of the city.

Everyone in the entire city remembered one name.

Ji Canghai.

Everyone thought that Ji Canghai was incredibly awesome.

Not only did he confront a peak expert of the Integration Realm directly, but he also dared to publicly call him an old dog.

Even more outrageous is that he managed to escape right under the nose of the Han family patriarch, without even being detected by divine sense.

This is simply unbelievable.

Regardless of the final outcome of this battle, Ji Canghai's name is destined to resound throughout Nanhua.

Even the red fox hiding in the shadows was both excited and nervous.

It huddled in the corner, staring dumbfounded in the direction Lin Feng had disappeared, unable to come to its senses for a long time.

It didn't understand why this human would hand over the white jade token so readily.

Now, it seems to understand somewhat.

That wasn't a gift; it was clearly putting the Han family on the hot seat!

The other party was clearly targeting the Han family.

First, he used the White Jade Token to gain the Han family's trust, then took the opportunity to get close to the core of the Han family, and finally, at the most critical moment, he pulled the rug out from under them.

This is a series of interconnected and meticulously planned schemes, ruthless to the extreme.

At this moment, the red fox even felt that...

That "Ji Canghai" was very likely the one who deliberately burned the body.

The purpose was to lure Gu Xinghe, this god of death, to the Han family.

If that's the case, then this person's scheming is truly terrifying.

This time, Gu Xinghe did not hold back.

The black longsword was raised high, its blade aura surging wildly.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, the sea breeze was still, and all was quiet.

Immediately afterwards, a black blade of light that stretched across the sky descended from the heavens and cleaved straight toward Jiuyuan Mountain.

"Quickly, everyone maintain the mountain-protecting formation!" Han Jiangchen, the head of the Han family, roared.

"Yes"

The entire Han family began to work together to maintain the formation.

"boom--!"

Before the sword even arrived, the world changed color.

The protective array around the mountain trembled under this strike.

Although Gu Xinghe was a peak-level expert in the Integration Realm, looking at the entire Nanhua County,

There are very few people who can confront him head-on.

But the Han family is no ordinary family.

As a family that has been passed down for thousands of years, and having inherited most of the resources of the sacred Nanhua Sect, the Han family's foundation is naturally not simple.

Especially this protective array that covers the entire Jiuyuan Mountain,

It is a family treasure created by generations of Han family ancestors with countless efforts and resources.

At this moment, the entire Han family worked together with one heart and one mind, activating the formation with all their might.

Streams of spiritual energy surged from the bodies of hundreds of cultivators, converging along the array patterns beneath their feet into the defensive light barrier above their heads.

The light screen was as thick as an overturned tortoise shell.

It completely covered the entire Jiuyuan Mountain, making it impenetrable.

Although Gu Xinghe's strike was terrifying, it ultimately failed to break the formation.

The black blade of light struck the light barrier, but was instantly repaired by the formation itself.

Seeing this, the Han family members breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Before they could even breathe a sigh of relief, Gu Xinghe had already gathered his strength and attacked again.

This time, his blade flashed even more fiercely.

"Boom—!"

The loud noise shook the entire city of Haicheng three times.

Ripples spread across the protective array, its light flickering erratically.

Even with the formation spreading the damage, the aftershocks of Gu Xinghe's full-force strike were still beyond what ordinary cultivators could withstand.

The Han family disciple with lower cultivation level immediately coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground.

Han Jiangchen's eyelids twitched as he watched.

As a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator,

He knew better than anyone the power contained within Gu Xinghe's seemingly insane attacks.

Without the protection of an array, this single strike...

At least half of the Han family will be killed or injured.

So he had no choice but to stand up again and loudly persuade:

"Fellow Daoist Gu, please calm down!"

Even with such a fierce attack, it's unlikely we can break through the protective formation of the Han family.

Instead of wasting our spiritual energy like this, let's sit down and have a proper talk.

My Han family is willing to pay compensation!

"Just name your name, whatever your conditions, my Han family will do our best to meet them!"

His tone was sincere, and his posture was extremely humble.

There are very few people in the entire Nanhua County who could make the Han family head so humble.

But he understood in his heart that Gu Xinghe was in this state.

It cannot be judged by common sense.

Upon hearing this, Gu Xinghe paused in his actions.

He raised his head and looked coldly at Han Jiangchen.

Those crimson eyes were empty and cold, filled only with boundless hatred.

"I, Gu Xinghe, don't want compensation, I just want you all to be buried with me."

These few simple words struck the hearts of every member of the Han family with a heavy blow.

Han Jiangchen's expression changed drastically, and he gritted his teeth, saying:

"Fellow Daoist Gu, must we fight to the death?"

"That's right," Gu Xinghe answered without hesitation.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, be lenient when you can."

Nanhua County is not just for my Han family, but also for the Yu family, the Meng family, and the Wang family. Our four families are of one blood and share the same fate, and we share the same fate.

If you dare to destroy my Han family today, the other three families will not stand idly by.

By then, you definitely won't gain any advantage!

Han Jiangchen brought up the other three major families, hoping to make Gu Xinghe think twice.

But he clearly underestimated Gu Xinghe's determination.

Gu Xinghe snorted coldly.

"My lifespan is nearing its end, so I no longer care about such things."

Use whatever means you have.

"I, Gu Xinghe, swear I won't rest until I've wiped out the entire Han family!"
