Heaven Slaying Blade

She didn't say: How I explain it to the master, how I explain it to the family, what does that have to do with you? Is this something you should ask?

She didn't say: Gu Dong being beaten like this has nothing to do with you, if there's punishment, it's mine to bear alone.

She didn't say: I'm not reckless, I'm just pushed to the cliff's edge, one more step back, and I'll fall!

Nor did she say: You lot, repeatedly defying my orders, keeping a group like you is utterly useless.

She said nothing extra, only four words—Get out of here!

But these four words, were the most decisive and straightforward words Gu Bingbing had ever said since she was a child!

After saying these four words, Gu Bingbing could clearly feel as if some invisible layer in her mind had been shattered, making her thoughts incredibly clear. This feeling of comfort was unprecedented!

"Before you leave, take this useless one with you! Haven't you always wanted to be his subordinates? Now's your chance. Hurry up and get lost!"

It wasn't Gu Bingbing who said this, but the Sky Patriarch. His eyes emitted two beams of fierce energy, and wherever his gaze landed, none of Gu Bingbing's original subordinates dared to meet his eyes.

Not even one person dared to accuse the Sky Patriarch of overstepping!

There wasn't a single person speaking!

The Sky Patriarch said quietly, "Still not leaving? Waiting for a farewell party to be thrown for you? Or waiting for Miss Bing to order you all to be chopped up?"

"Why... why?" Finally someone came to their senses, timidly refuting while looking at the Sky Patriarch.

Because if they didn't refute, they'd really be driven out!

Their hearts yearned so much to become Gu Dong's subordinates, and that wasn't important. What mattered was that today if they got kicked out by Gu Bingbing, no one would accept them in the future!

Who would want a group of subordinates who don't even obey their master's orders? No matter how excellent, how strong, how formidable you are... but if you don't listen to me, why do I need you?

They all understood this rationale, but had never thought about it before. The usually somewhat soft Gu Bingbing unexpectedly exhibited such a forceful side. So suddenly, they all panicked a bit.

"Exactly, we... we haven't done anything wrong."

"No, no, no, Miss, we were wrong, but we have our reasons, if it were someone else, would you give us an order and we wouldn't obey? But this person is Young Master Gu Dong, after all, your own brother, we can't just... just..."

Some still couldn't let go of their pride, trying to forcefully argue a bit. Some already sensed something was off, apologizing softly.

But all of this was already meaningless.

Gu Bingbing turned around calmly, looked at the monkey, and said: "Daoist Friend Monkey, from today on, you will be my General Monkey under Gu Bingbing."

Saying this, she then looked at the Sky Patriarch: "Daoist Friend Sky, from today on, you will be my General Sky under Gu Bingbing. The two of you, one as Left General, one as Right General, are my foremost protectors."

Gu Bingbing's expression became increasingly calm: "You two can act on my behalf with full authority! Unless the matter is of utmost importance, reaching the level of life or death for the Ancient God Family, otherwise, everything is at the discretion of you two Generals!"

"Additionally, for the other forty-six Daoist friends, if one day I, Gu Bingbing, can make a name in the Tunnel, you shall be my forty-six personal guards! If I stand high, I will never let you stand halfway up the mountain! As for the matter of the Investiture of the Gods, I, Gu Bingbing, have no control over it, but I can guarantee that as long as the Edict of the Investiture of the Gods is in my hands for a day, I will treat you all as honored guests!" Gu Bingbing spoke emotionally, her face slightly flushed.

It was evident these were words from the heart, her sincere thoughts.

The Sky Patriarch glanced at the monkey, and the monkey glanced back at the Sky Patriarch.

Then the Sky Patriarch looked at Gu Bingbing and said: "Miss Bing treats us like honored guests, we will treat you as a confidant!"

This is the inherent pride of those who once stood on the peak of various worlds, unwilling to give it up even in death!

You treat me like an honored guest, and I will treat you like a confidant!

If you want to treat me as a slave, then I will see you as an enemy!

It's that simple!

Even if you control my destiny, deep inside, I am unyielding!

Had it been the Gu Bingbing of before today, she might have been upset hearing this, but now, she smiled. She nodded seriously, smiled sincerely, and said seriously: "It's a deal!"

The Sky Patriarch, the monkey, and the other forty-eight all said in unison: "It's a deal!"

They were content!

Because this was the best condition any being who made it onto the Investiture of the Gods could secure for themselves!

Equality!

At least relatively... it's equal!

It's enough.

What else do you want? Do you really think there is a way to break the divine persona?

Even if one day they have the chance to break the divine persona and regain freedom, they must remain grateful to Gu Bingbing. Even if they don't continue to stay by her side, they all owe her a debt!

They understood this truth, and so did the clever Gu Bingbing.

Therefore, Gu Bingbing was also satisfied. She finally discovered that by changing her mindset, the path before her would look completely different!

Much brighter!

No, brighter still!

The six ancestral realm cultivators and the thirty-something Great Saint Realm peak cultivators were utterly dumbfounded at this moment.

Right in front of their eyes, forty-eight gods listed on the Investiture of the Gods formed an alliance with Gu Bingbing! Formed a seemingly equal alliance that even the entire Ancient Tunnel Clan would not endorse!

They were frightened, uneasy, displeased. But so what? Even if this action by Gu Bingbing will cause a great wave, it no longer has anything to do with them.

The monkey swung the iron rod in his hand and said coldly, "Not leaving yet? Do you want to fight?"

Thud!

A cultivator at the pinnacle of the Great Saint Realm fell to his knees in front of Gu Bingbing, "Miss, I was wrong, I was really wrong, I beg you to retract your order, please don't drive us away!"

"Miss... I was wrong too!" Another one knelt down.

"Miss, I was wrong!"

"Miss... I was wrong!"

Thud thud, more than half of thirty-something cultivators at the pinnacle of the Great Saint Realm knelt down instantly!

The remaining six cultivators of the ancestral realm, blushing, looked at this scene, unable to say a word.

"Does anyone else think they're wrong?" Gu Bingbing's gaze swept. The remaining descendants of the Ancient God Family at the pinnacle of the Great Saint Realm all knelt down.

Whether willingly or not, they ultimately knelt!

"You six, get out!" Gu Bingbing said.

"Miss... we..." a cultivator of the ancestral realm showed a troubled expression, being an ancestral realm cultivator, it was really hard to kneel.

Actually, those at the pinnacle of the Great Saint Realm, they also didn't want to kneel. But they all knew the situation had really blown up this time, Gu Bingbing might face punishment, but their fate would not be better than hers!

The esteemed daughter of the Ancient God Family being bullied by a group of subordinates like this, where does the Ancient God Family's face go? Cultivators of the ancestral realm might end up better, at worst being sent to relatively desolate and chaotic areas, but these people... might really be cleaned out.

So, willingly or not, all of these Great Saint Realm cultivators knelt.

Gu Bingbing glanced at the Sky Patriarch and the monkey: "Waste them!"

"Miss... we're leaving!" That ancestral realm cultivator's expression was bitter, and in his eyes, a cold hatred flashed. He did not hide it, and before the face of these equally profound cultivators, he couldn't hide it either.

It was indeed hatred. An esteemed ancestral realm cultivator, actually driven away by the people he followed. This was also a terrible humiliation for them!

"Kill him," Gu Bingbing said casually.

Buzz!

The monkey swung the big iron rod viciously.

The Sky Patriarch moved even faster!

This true cosmic giant suppressed with a slap.

The monkey directly attacked, he controlled it!

In the tunnel, the ancestral realm cultivators couldn't display that universe-quaking might they once had, but still earth-shattering!

This ancestral realm cultivator let out a terrified shout, directly summoned their dharma instrument, and tried to flee into the distance.

Bang!

The dharma instrument, smashed to pieces by the monkey's rod!

Then, the monkey's big iron rod fell directly on the person's head.

Six Great Saints' attacks arrived as well!

With the blessing of divinity, although these six Great Saints hadn't broken through to the ancestral realm, their combat power already rivaled ancestral giants.

So, within less than a breath.

This ancestral realm cultivator of the Ancient God Family, their body was directly shattered, their cultivation wasted, leaving only a primordial spirit to escape. Yet it was slapped to pieces by the Sky Patriarch!

The monkey glared at the Sky Patriarch: "You old man sure know how to take advantage."

The Sky Patriarch smiled faintly, "Conceding, conceding."

Silence!

The entire Ancient God Mountain was in dead silence!

At this moment, Gu Dong, who was almost crippled, let out a groan full of pain, "Gu Bingbing... you... you're crazy!"

"A cripple has no right to point fingers in front of me!" Gu Bingbing said coldly.

Then, she turned to the five ancestral realm cultivators, "Get out, take this worthless Gu Dong with you, get out of Ancient God Mountain!"

This time, the five ancestral realm cultivators didn't hesitate in the slightest, took Gu Dong, and fled instantly.

The remaining thirty-something cultivators at the pinnacle of the Great Saint Realm were still kneeling obediently there. At this moment, they were completely... shaken to an unimaginable degree!

When women become ruthless, they are unbelievably terrifying! She truly dared to kill!

An esteemed ancestral realm cultivator, killed just like that!

And those slaves on the Investiture of the Gods list, have they all gone mad? Don't they know the Ancient God Family has the right to retract the Edict of the Investiture of the Gods at any time? Aren't they afraid of the retaliation that comes with it?

At this point, the monkey said, "Not enough fighting."

The Sky Patriarch nodded seriously, "Those five should have stayed too."

This time, even Gu Bingbing was at a loss for words, she let out a long breath, looked at the Sky Patriarch and the monkey, and slightly curtsied, "Thank you, Daoist Friends, please wait here for a moment. I will report this matter to the family. Rest assured, I will bear all responsibilities myself!"

The monkey chuckled coldly, "Not needed, Miss Bing, if you wish, we will accompany you, fighting out a bloody path, to anywhere!"
