Chapter 527: Chapter 273: The Formidable Effects of Quasi-Tier 4 Spiritual Liquid (Part 4)

The buildings in the city are arranged in an orderly fashion, like scales lined up.

Among all the buildings, the most eye-catching is the towering pagoda that reaches dozens of yards into the sky.

At this moment, the topmost floor of the pagoda has a slightly heavy atmosphere.

"Ancient City Lord!"

Yan Ming stood below, bowing to a tall man in a black robe on the steps above.

Looking closely, it was indeed Gu Yuntao.

He exudes an increasingly cold aura, akin to a millennium-old glacier, quietly standing on the steps, giving people a feeling of a barrier that cannot be crossed, much like an emotionless puppet.

"Hmm."

Gu Yuntao nodded slightly, his gaze carrying a hint of curiosity, "You were seriously injured by Yan Ruchen’s sword array from the Purple Mountain Association?" 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

According to his knowledge, Yan Ruchen was merely an Early-Stage Golden Core Cultivator.

Yan Ming, being a Late-Stage Golden Core Cultivator, even with a Third-rank Upper Grade puppet for protection, was easily injured like this, which was truly unbelievable.

Such cultivation, such combat power, this Yan Ruchen can absolutely be considered a prodigy of the present age.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ming’s face instantly turned as black as ink.

As the saying goes, good news doesn’t travel far, but bad news spreads a thousand miles. In a few short months, this shameful event had reached even Gu Yuntao, far at the border of Wind Country.

He felt both ashamed and angry, yet he had to face reality, gritting his teeth, forcing a justification for himself:

"That person, although his cultivation is ordinary, used a sword array that was indeed formidable beyond comparison. Its power probably already touched the level of Golden Core Perfection."

"At that time, I was careless and failed to guard against it, hence my unfortunate defeat."

Listening to Yan Ming’s somewhat far-fetched justification, Gu Yuntao’s lips merely curled up slightly into a faint smile, not exposing him on the spot.

Gu Yuntao knew very well that Yan Ming was just trying to find a way to save face.

At this moment, his thoughts were more focused on this incredibly powerful Yan Ruchen.

In his view, an Early-Stage Golden Core Cultivator with such astonishing combat strength, given some time and further cultivation enhancement, even Golden Core Perfection cultivators might not be able to rival him.

Such talent, if used for one’s own purposes, would be like adding wings to a tiger.

"Ancient City Lord, I’m here this time to ask if you would lend me some puppets and Golden Core Cultivators. I want to crush the Purple Mountain Association and avenge my humiliation!"

After a brief silence, Yan Ming looked up, a trace of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes, saying to Gu Yuntao.

"The Dao friend Yan need not be so impulsive."

Gu Yuntao gently shook his head, decisively rejecting Yan Ming’s request.

His voice was low and calm yet carried an undeniable authority that made people hesitant to defy him quietly.

"This person has formidable combat prowess; if we can draw him into our alliance, he could significantly aid us against the Seed Puppet Sect in the future."

"Drawing him into our alliance?"

Upon hearing these words, Yan Ming furrowed his brow slightly, feeling somewhat doubtful, then promptly asked:

"Seed Puppet Sect is so imposing; among the cultivators in the entire Wind Country, it is renowned. Would he dare to join us?"

Bear in mind, the Seed Puppet Sect not only has two Golden Core Perfection cultivators in charge but several Late-Stage Golden Core seniors, and even possesses a Quasi-Fourth Rank Puppet, which is considered a treasure capable of guarding a sect.

Not to mention accumulating Third-rank Upper Grade puppets and Third-rank Peak puppets within the sect.

With such strong powers, it probably would not be much weaker than an average Nascent Soul power.

Only true overlord-level powers like the Hundred Bamboo Sect would disregard the Seed Puppet Sect.

"Hehe."

Gu Yuntao chuckled slightly, his smile carrying a trace of mystery and confidence, "The Seed Puppet Sect will help us."

After speaking, his gaze drifted towards the horizon, deep and far-reaching, as though penetrating layers of fog and having already seen the turbulent changes of the future situation.
