Chapter 1096

Chapter 1096: It’s not as simple as humiliation, is it because you want to die?

This palm strike descended like a colossal hand of heaven crushing a tiny ant. Overwhelming pressure crushed down, surging and raging, and it instantly turned Wang Shun into a mist of blood, obliterating his form and spirit. He didn’t even have time to react, and his protective Divine weapons were instantly reduced to countless tiny fragments.

This sudden turn of events shocked all the young and talented cultivators present. They stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with astonishment and disbelief. Who would be so audacious as to, in the Divine City, in front of everyone, palm Wang Shun to death? Weren’t they afraid of incurring the enmity of the Wan Bao Business Alliance, inviting endless vendettas?

Furthermore, this occurred in the Divine City, where all the young and talented cultivators gathered. The entire courtyard became eerily silent, with a silence so profound that one could hear a pin drop.

“Young Master…”

The gray-clothed old man with quasi-emperor cultivation watched everything in stunned silence. He seemed frozen, unable to react.

In front of his eyes, was it true that Wang Shun had been directly slapped to death by someone?

“Truly audacious!”

At this moment, it seemed like there was a surge of anger coming from deep within the Divine City. A terrifying pressure, like a vast sea, surged forth, almost suffocating.

The Wan Bao Business Alliance also had powerful figures among its ranks, but in this time, only one Dao-Building ancestor had appeared. Even though he had witnessed everything with his own eyes present, he did not dare to come forward to seek justice for young leader Wang Shun.

Is this a warning to us with such a dominant attitude

, Gu Changge

?

The strongest individuals from various factions looked at the situation with different expressions. The battle between Gu Xian’er and Wang Shun had been observed by many of them.

However, they did not intervene, but rather tacitly allowed it to continue. After all, Gu Xian’er was the little princess of the Ancient Immortal Gu family. It was unimaginable that she wouldn’t have protectors by her side to ensure her safety.

So, when the quasi-emperor expert of the Wan Bao Business Alliance appeared to stop the conflict, it was also with their silent agreement.

They weren’t worried about any unexpected outcomes. Their goal was merely to test Gu Changge’s reaction and the stance of the Gu family. The result was that Gu Changge had indeed shown up, but it was at the expense of the Wan Bao Business Alliance, as their young leader had been easily slapped to death by Gu Changge in front of everyone.

Unfortunately, even in the face of this situation, the Wan Bao Business Alliance dared not seek justice from Gu Changge; their Dao-Building ancestor here could only swallow their grievances.

“Gu Changge…”

“He had finally appeared.”

The Heavenly Phoenix Maiden, Six Crown King, Jin Chan, and many other young supremes gazed at the sky’s edge with solemn expressions. They were all too familiar with this clam tone and knew for certain that it was Gu Changge who had appeared in the Divine City. Moreover, in the current Upper Realm, aside from Gu Changge, there was probably no one else with the audacity, dominance, and recklessness to match.

Lan Yifei’s eyes flickered briefly, and his expression quickly returned to normal.

“Gu Changge had come?”

Both Jiang Luoshen and Gu Xian’er turned their eyes to the edge of the sky. Their emotions became extremely complex. Especially for Gu Xian’er, just a moment ago, she had considered using the Gu family’s token to order the quasi-emperor expert in front of her to withdraw. But she never expected Gu Changge to show up at this moment, and with such authority, to slap the young leader of the Wao Bao Business Alliance to death.

In the past, she would have been incredibly moved and delighted. But times had changed. Everything she had encountered recently, along with witnessing Lan Yifei kill Jin Yun in their secret cave, seizing his origin essence, had made her start to doubt Gu Changge.

“If it’s really him, showing up in the Divine City, isn’t that walking into a trap?”

“Or perhaps I’m just overthinking.”

Gu Xian’er’s expression became complicated, and her slender hand beneath her sleeve involuntarily clenched tightly.

“It’s Young Master Changge!”

At this moment, someone in the courtyard finally broke the silence. All eyes turned uncontrollably toward the sky above the Divine City.

At the edge of the sky, Gu Changge’s figure appeared. He stood tall and straight, his face like jade, exuding an aura of elegance and nobility. His black robe was embroidered with celestial constellations, radiating a faint, mysterious light. He seemed to be alone, moving with incredible speed, and in an instant, he descended from the sky and walked into the courtyard.

“Gu Changge…”

“Our Young Master had no grievances with you. Why did you resort to such ruthless means?”

The gray-robed elder from the Wan Bao Business Alliance, seemingly just realizing the situation, looked at Gu Changge with intense sorrow, hatred burning in his eyes. He trembled all over, his eyes reddening due to the overwhelming hatred.

Gu Changge casually glanced at him and said with a faint smile, “Wasn’t he unable to swallow his anger? I helped him out of goodwill. What’s wrong with that?”

Seeing Gu Changge’s dismissive attitude, as if he didn’t care about the life or death of their young master, the gray-robed elder’s face turned incredibly ashen and humiliated.

“Gu Changge. Just because you have power doesn’t mean you can arbitrarily decide life and death for others,” he nearly gritted his teeth.

No matter what, their young master was destined to succeed the Wan Bao Business Alliance, and his status was highly regarded, earning the respect of many elders within the union. Yet, in the blink of an eye, he had been treated by Gu Changge as if he were nothing more than a stray cat or dog that could be killed at will. This was no longer just an insult; it was a slap in the face to the Wan Bao Business Alliance, a trampling of their dignity.

“Are you suggesting I should pay with my life for his death?” Gu Changge asked, his tone indifferent. “I’m standing right here today. If you have the capability, come and take my life.”Gu Changge smiled lightly, appearing unfazed.

“You……”

“Do you think my Wan Bao Alliance was easy to bully?”

Upon hearing these words, the gray-robed elder’s face turned from ashen to a deep shade of maroon purple. Clearly, he was seething with anger and humiliation. After cultivating for so many years, it was the first time he had encountered someone so audacious. To be openly mocked and scorned in front of everyone, anyone would find it hard to bear.

“Or perhaps you’re looking for death?”

Hearing this,Gu Changge’s expression remained casual as he glanced at the elder.

The gray-robed elder’s expression stiffened, turning incredibly pale. He had intended to say something, but he swallowed his words in an instant. He felt a terrifying murderous intent rushing towards him, making him feel as if he were suffocating, his very soul trembling.

“To test my attitude, of course, a price needs to be paid, right?” Gu Changge said with a faint smile.

Many young supremes and cultivators in the vicinity were tongue-tied and shocked by the scene. Even a quasi-Emperor expert who was on the verge of breaking through to the Dao-Building realm, had to endure this humiliation and dare not make any reckless moves.

However, many were also curious at this moment, particularly about Gu Changge’s earlier mention of the Reincarnated Heaven Lord. Where was he? Could he already be in the Divine City but had yet to reveal himself? Or perhaps everything Gu Changge had said was just a ruse to draw everyone to the Divine City?
