Chapter 842: Chapter 843: Rebellion of the 9 Demon Cities

Chu Feng also knew that this matter could not be rushed. With the Family Head of the Gu Family’s connections, his search was certainly much faster than Chu Feng’s.

"Jin’er, Mr. Chu will be staying at our Wang family in the coming days. You must take good care of him and not neglect him."

The Family Head of the Gu Family spoke into the void, and soon Gu Jin conjured a tunnel of void, stepping into it directly.

"Yes, Senior Chu, please follow me."

Chu Feng nodded, then moved his feet and followed Gu Jin, leaving directly.

Once out of the void tunnel, the two arrived at the real Gu Family.

The Gu Family occupied a large area of Ningzhou Ancient City, with many clan members, over tens of thousands, and a staggering number of servants reaching into the millions. However, among these tens of thousands, only a few were true direct descendants of the Gu Family.

Gu Jin, the second young lady of the Gu Family, was one of these direct descendants, holding an esteemed position within the Gu Family.

In the Gu Family, palaces stood densely, numbering in the millions.

As the two walked through the Gu Family grounds, they conversed along the way.

"I wonder what Senior Chu gained?"

Gu Jin inquired.

She now naturally understood why Chu Feng came here.

Though the Gu Family was not a business association, they often engaged in some business transactions, having their own treasure trove. Chu Feng’s discussions with the Family Head of the Gu Family were precisely for business.

"Quite fruitful."

Chu Feng smiled as he replied.

This time he saved Gu Jin, which turned out to be rather fortunate; otherwise, it would have been difficult for Chu Feng to find a way in Ningzhou Ancient City.

"By the way, Miss Gu, has anything happened recently in the central region? Something about the Nine Demon City and some demon rebellion?"

Chu Feng suddenly asked.

He suddenly recalled what those three Inspectors had mentioned earlier.

Nine Demon City, now one of the Seven Great Sects, was relatively independent compared to the other six sects, but not to the extent of being mortal enemies.

Moreover, why would the Blood Sword Demon Venerable leave the Demon Domain where Nine Demon City was located and come to the central region?

Something must have happened to cause this.

"Senior Chu doesn’t know?"

Gu Jin’s expression was slightly surprised. This matter had stirred great anxiety in the central region, and everyone knew about it. It was surprising that Chu Feng was unaware, but considering that Chu Feng came from the northern region, Gu Jin understood much more, and slowly began to explain.

"Just half a month ago, a disturbance occurred within Nine Demon City, where nearly half of the disciples suddenly rebelled. These disciples of Nine Demon City no longer cared about the treaties of the Seven Great Sects and began to slaughter martial artists, cultivating Demon Techniques."

"Most areas of the Nine Domains have already been influenced, and our central region is no exception. This area being the border of the central region, Nine Demon City’s disciples often attack martial artists nearby."

"The Blood Sword Demon Venerable is one of them, frequently hiding outside Ningzhou Ancient City. He doesn’t dare enter the city itself, but waits for martial artists to leave. Once a martial artist leaves, he strikes, kills them, and seizes their wealth, becoming incredibly troublesome."

"Most of these rebelling Nine Demon City disciples have come to the central region, making it hard to find a day of peace in the entire central region."

As she mentioned this, Gu Jin’s face showed some concern.

Nine Demon City’s disciples were always extremely brutal, but earlier, due to the constraints among the Seven Great Sects, they rarely ventured out and remained restrained.

Yet, this time, a large number of Nine Demon City disciples rebelled, disregarding everything and launching a massacre of martial artists, causing a bloody frenzy.

Especially since Nine Demon City’s power ranked first among the Seven Great Sects, even with half of the disciples rebelling, it was still an extremely terrifying event.

"Nine Demon City having internal strife?"

Chu Feng’s expression changed slightly; he did not anticipate this. The disciples of Nine Demon City, cultivating Demon Techniques, have always had extremely peculiar personalities, leading to constant internal chaos.

However, such a large scale of rebellion was something Chu Feng had never heard of before. He wondered what had truly occurred to cause this rebellion.

This rebellion didn’t pose much of a threat to Chu Feng; now, the rebel forces of Nine Demon City could shift the pressure of the Seven Great Sects, allowing Chu Feng to move with ease.

After all, compared to the rebellion of Nine Demon City, a lone Chu Feng was insignificant.

Nevertheless, Chu Feng felt some unease; Nine Demon City had always been an unstable factor in the Nine Domains, and this rebellion might be enough to shake the entire Nine Domains, affecting Chu Feng.

"Strength! Only with enough strength can one survive in chaotic times!"

Chu Feng’s eyes gleamed.

To establish oneself in the Nine Domains, the most crucial need is strength; without strength, there is no leverage at all.

Chu Feng must urgently enhance his strength.

"Let’s go."

The news of Nine Demon City’s rebellion currently had little impact on Chu Feng. After all, he was a lone wanderer without any attachments.

General disciples of Nine Demon City were unlikely to be a match for Chu Feng, so he did not need much worry, just a bit of caution.

"Hmm, something seems to have happened within the Gu Family."

As they walked, Gu Jin suddenly halted, speaking up.

"Senior Chu, I need to attend to some matters first. I ask you to wait briefly."

"Oh? No problem, I’ll go with you."

Chu Feng casually replied.

He currently had nothing else to do, so he might as well join in the commotion.

"Alright then."

Gu Jin’s face appeared somewhat anxious, she didn’t say much more, and directly moved her body, transforming into a streak of Tunneling Light, traversing through the Gu Family.

Within a few breaths, the two of them arrived at a spacious square.

Surrounding the square were several people, all members of the Gu Family or servants.

At the center of the square, a man lay on the ground, his chest ripped open violently, the injury was extremely severe. If not for the man’s Realm already reaching the Life and Death Realm, such an injury would have been lethal.

Even so, the man was extremely weak now.

Chu Feng took one glance and noticed the peculiarity in the man. Normally, a martial artist of the Life and Death Realm should be able to recover quickly from such an injury.

Yet the man’s wounds seemed to be inflicted by some peculiar Spiritual Power, hindering his healing, causing him to grow weaker with time.
