Chapter 441 - The Tianlong Guards Arrive

Gu Zuo snapped out it, and stared blankly.

The Tianlong Guards had arrived? How did the Tianlong Guards suddenly come here? Did big brother unexpectedly sense their arrival? Perhaps it was due to that bloodline

While thinking with his heart in a mess, Gongyi Tianheng was already speaking to Gongyi Zhuoyue and the others: The Tianlong Guards, which belonged to me in the past, have come to the courtyard entrance. Father, please make some arrangements so as to not alarm too many people.

Gongyi Zhuoyue nodded his head: Yaner, lets go.

Gongyi Yan also stood up: Shall this father take them somewhere else?

Tianheng said: Im afraid they have come to see me. Father, you can just bring them here.

Gongyi Yan had no objections, and quickly walked out of the courtyard to make the arrangements.

Soon after, Gongyi Zhuoyue asked: When did Tianheng order the Tianlong Guards to gather at this place?

Tianheng faintly shook his head: This grandson didnt give any orders. They just sensed this grandsons qi emissions.

Gongyi Zhuoyue paused: What mystery is unfolding here?

Tianheng stated: This grandson once unintentionally transformed their const.i.tutions. Thats probably how this happened.

Gongyi Zhuoyue didnt ask much else. Of course, he knew that his own grandson had many fortuitous encounters, so he didnt have any intentions of investigating closely. As for Liu Suyan, she didnt care about such things. As far as she was concerned, she was already satisfied that her beloved son, who suffered hards.h.i.+ps since childhood, could achieve what he was today, and return with great honor, safe and sound.

Not long after, several gusts of strong wind blew over from outside.

Gu Zuo didnt deliberately use his psychic power to check, but he also noticed that these qi emissions contained powerful strength. It was to the point that they far surpa.s.sed that of the current clan head, Gongyi Yan The clan head had gone to receive the Tianlong Guards, so could it be that these qi emissions came from the guards themselves?

He subconsciously perceived with his mind. Sure enough, although these qi emissions were strange, they carried traces of familiarity. These familiar feelings originated from the Tiandu Body!

Gu Zuos interest was piqued.

He felt that the Tianlong Guards could become the sharp blade of his dear big brother in the future. Their loyalty was unmatched, but they still needed to be nurtured for a long time. But now, it seemed this long time could be shortened?

Immediately following this, one shadow after another dashed inside. In the blink of an eye, these shadows kneeled on the ground in the courtyard. Facing Tianheng, all of them kowtowed and paid their respects: The Tianlong Guards bear witness to the young master!

While their voices werent loud, their imposing aura was like the sound of thunder!

At this moment, Gu Zuo couldnt help widening his eyes.

The strength of these Tianlong Guards had actually reached peak Xiantian stage nine.

How strange!

Gu Zuo still remembered. When they left Qingyun Sect, not all of the two hundred Tianlong Guards had become Xiantian martial artists. After just two years, all of them were infinitesimally close to the Immortal Realm!

Even on the Central Continent, such fast improvement speeds were only seen among genius-level personages! However, the ambient qi of the Cangyun Empire was thin. Moreover, the Tianlong Guards, and their apt.i.tudes, were originally limited to only the orphans taken in by the Gongyi Clan. To improve this quickly, there had to be something odd going on!

Gu Zuo let out a sigh, but didnt pose any questions.

If it was said that Gu Zuo felt it was strange, then Gongyi Zhuoyue and Gongyi Yan were shocked.

Most of all was Gongyi Zhuoyue. If he hadnt obtained the precious pearl, it wouldve been impossible for him to advance this fast. And he was at the level of the old ancestor of the Gongyi Clan! Every one of these Tianlong Guards was actually stronger than him Such a tremendous force was enough to sweep away the Cangyun Empire!

Yet, he couldnt figure it out. These Tianlong Guards were clearly still Tianlong Guards. How were they able to undergo such great advancements?

The leader of the Tianlong Guards said: Dragon 21 to Dragon 200 have been waiting for the young master for a long time, but we were late to come and pay our respects. Young master, please punish us.

Tianheng faintly smiled. He lightly brushed his sleeve, and swept up these one hundred eighty Tianlong Guards. That powerful force wasnt something that these Tianlong Guards could withstand: All of you are so loyal and devoted that you perceived my arrival in advance. How could I punish you?

The numerous Tianlong Guards sensed Tianhengs strength, and listened to his words. Their faces couldnt help revealing fanatical expressions.

Since the very beginning, they always viewed Gongyi Tianheng as their G.o.d. It was considered an unwavering belief or undying conviction.

Now, such emotions were burning even more intensely!

Seeing the Tianlong Guards display, Gu Zuo was also quite happy.

One ought to know that big brothers present subordinates, those battle slaves, were mostly at the Immortal Realm. Although it currently wasnt known how these Tianlong Guards were going to break through, once they did, big brother would have two hundred more Immortal Realm death guards. It was much more rea.s.suring to utilize them than the battle slaves.

These helpers had actually grown well beyond his expectations There were no doubts that this was a monumentally good thing!

Once the crowd of Tianlong Guards stood up, they lined up in military formation. Their imposing aura was rich and powerful.

Upon seeing this, Gongyi Zhuoyue and the others guessed what might be happening, and left the courtyard first.

Gongyi Yan said: Your father and grandfather will go and summon our clan members. Tianheng, you can handle your own matters here.

Gongyi Zhuoyue wore a gratified smile: Rest a.s.sured, these old bones of mine will definitely deal with this matter properly. I wont allow any information to leak out and cause you trouble.

Naturally, Tianheng spoke resolutely: Many thanks, grandfather. Many thanks, father.

Gongyi Yan and Gongyi Zhuoyue faintly nodded their heads.

Liu Suyan lightly patted Tianhengs arm, and departed with the other two.

When Tianhengs three close relatives took the initiative to give him s.p.a.ce, his gaze fell onto the numerous Tianlong Guards. At this moment, his temperament had become even more different. It would cause others to feel reverence.

The crowd of Tianlong Guards werent afraid. Although they restrained their fervent feelings, their eyes were still filled with veneration.

Tianheng said: Tell me everything that has happened with the Tianlong Guards.

After the first twenty Tianlong Guards left, Dragon 21 obviously became the leader. At this time, he spoke in a respectful voice: Reporting to the young master. After young master departed

Back then, Gu Zuo and Tianheng proceeded for Qingyun Sect, and left behind many Xiantian Pills and other supplementary medicinal pills, which contained Tianhengs blood. Before these pills were distributed, the other Tianlong Guards were asked if they had any objections. However, without a single exception, after all of the Tianlong Guards reached peak Houtian through the supplementary pills, they chose to take this kind of Xiantian Pill, which deepened their connection to Tianheng.

Even though Tianheng later left Qingyun Sect and proceed to the Road of Death, where his life or death was unknown, they didnt have the slightest hesitation.

In the wake of their increased strength, the first twenty Tianlong Guards went to Qingyun Sect one after another to a.s.sist Gongyi Tianyang and to take care of Tianhengs remaining properties. Because the medicinal pills were top grade, the other Tianlong Guards improved faster than ever before. It didnt take long to become Xiantian martial artists. In addition, each and every one of them possessed two sets of bone pearls.

Once they were at the Xiantian Realm, the Tianlong Guards sensed what seemed like a thread connecting themselves to Tianheng. They realized that Tianheng was living well, and they faintly knew that he was growing stronger and stronger. It wasnt until one day that their strength suddenly advanced at unimaginably fast speeds. It was almost like, so long as they swallowed Xiantian Pills to reach the Xiantian Realm, they would continuously break through the next nine stages like a hot knife cutting through b.u.t.ter. There werent any bottlenecks at all. Their own foundations were extremely st.u.r.dy, and the true qi within their bodies surpa.s.sed that of ordinary martial artists several times over!

This kind of change was too formidable. At that time, the Tianlong Guards made a prompt decision. They withdrew into the villa that Tianheng left behind to guard it, and didnt rashly reveal themselves to others. Normally, they frequently concealed their ident.i.ties, and went into large mountain ranges and dense forests for training. When the wild beasts in those places were incapable of causing damage to them, they sparred with each other, and constantly increased their battle prowess.

As time pa.s.sed, they discovered that their own powers of understanding, const.i.tutions, and abilities were fully improved. However, once they all reached peak Xiantian, it appeared that a type of mysterious and inexorable power obstructed their continued breakthroughs to the Immortal Realm.

At this time, the numerous Tianlong Guards had a vague understanding.

Their change mightve been related to the young masters blood, which had integrated with their bodies. It was also related to the young masters const.i.tution!

Listening up to here, Gu Zuo pondered.

He carefully recalled everything recorded within those reference books that pertained to the introduction of the Tiandu Body. Yet, there wasnt a single explanation for the current situation.

However, the Tiandu Body was unlike the other physiques. It was because the abilities of each Tiandu Body were all different from one generation to the next. Due to their strong powers of understanding, the things they comprehended were different, and the a.s.sociated reactions within their bodies were also different.

But there was no need to doubt that the Tianlong Guards way of thinking was correct. Their unusual changes were definitely due to the Tiandu Body!

In addition, Gu Zuo also had a conjecture.

Was the reason why the Tianlong Guards improved so fast becausebig brother broke through to the Immortal Realm after going to the Central Continent? As a result, the blood left inside the bodies of the Tianlong Guards acted as a driving force so that their cultivation bases werent too far from big brother?

Currently, Tianheng had already become an Atomic Realm martial artist. As such, the Tianlong Guards, who were receiving this pull, were probably going to break through to the Immortal Realm very soon!

Evidently, Tianheng had a similar notion.

He summoned Dragon 21, and spoke to Gu Zuo: Ah Zuo, can we take his pulse together?

Gu Zuo was stunned, but quickly nodded his head: Okay.

In fact, it was more dangerous for two people to examine the body of another individual at the same time. What was needed was the mutual trust of three people, especially the two who were inputting their internal qi. If there was a conflict, it could take the persons life.

However, in this aspect, regardless of whether it was Tianheng or Gu Zuo, neither had any hesitation.

Both of them knew the other partys greatest secrets, and everything about one another was as clear as crystal. What was there to worry about?

Hence, of the two people, one grabbed Dragon 21s left wrist, while the other grabbed his right wrist. Then, they injected their internal qi simultaneously.

In the blink of an eye, the internal qi of the pair travelled through all of Dragon 21s meridians and bone pearls. With a tacit understanding, one person inspected one set of bone pearls. Shortly thereafter, they switched sides, and inspected the other set of bone pearls. After that, they examined the internal organs and probed the muscles and bones, before switching again.

After several breaths of time, the two retracted their hands.

Tianheng looked at Gu Zuo with a joyful expression in his eyes: Ah Zuo, are you happy for me?

Gu Zuo knew what he was talking about, and immediately showed a great, big smile: Of course Im happy for big brother! Congratulations! From now on, big brother will have an unrivaled army!
