"Ah!"


    "Ah!"


    In just the blink of an eye, those faithful to Young Master Zhuang Chao, as well as his subordinates, had been devoured completely by a tidal wave of Poison Gu.


    "No... don''t... please stop..." During this time, Zhuang Chao kept issuing commands, trying to stop the Poison Gu from continuing their attack, but he was horrified to find that the insects, which were clearly under the control of his Mother Gu, were not heeding his orders at all.


    Even more, when Zhuang Chao issued instructions too frantically, several of the Mother Gu even bit at his chest, causing Zhuang Chao''s heart to convulse violently and he spat out several mouthfuls of black blood!


    In contrast, on Ren Tianxing and Pang Hai''s side!


    The Poison Gu that had been clinging to them had all retreated cleanly, not one had been left behind.


    Disgusted by the insects that had left her body, Ren Xueying shook her arms and said with a pleased expression, "I knew Brother Fan was the most powerful, I thought we were going to be widows!"


    "Tch! Xueying, don''t talk nonsense!" Qing Ruolan''s face turned somewhat red, but she couldn''t hide the joy on her face.


    Qiu Wan, standing beside her, still looked tense as she watched Ye Fan, and although she remained silent, her heart was also filled with joy for him!


    Having just met a man who cherished her so much, bringing such a drastic change to her life, Qiu Wan also wanted to cherish him properly!


    With Ye Fan stepping in to solve such a troublesome problem with the Poison Gu, Pang Hai and Yu Qiang also heaved a sigh of relief.


    Indeed, the Pavilion Master of Tianji Pavilion has never been a coward!


    Zhuang Chao''s Poison Gu had completely lost their effectiveness, and he had even suffered backlash, violently spitting out fresh blood. He retreated non-stop, panic-stricken, "Ye Fan... you... you..."


    Poison Gu was Zhuang Chao''s greatest reliance!


    With Poison Gu, he could control the life of Ye Fan and the lives of so many other guests present.


    Even if Ye Fan wasn''t afraid of the Poison Gu''s control, he also had to consider the lives of his women and his companions.


    But now, with a sweep of his hand, Ye Fan had made all those Poison Gu dissipate, and the Poison Gu on Ye Fan himself had also vanished without a trace.


    Whatever means had Ye Fan used?


    "How on earth did you do this?" Zhuang Chao glanced back, only to see that all his men had been devoured, leaving only Zhou Ming, who had used some method to keep the Poison Gu at bay.


    But evidently, even Zhou Ming had no good way to counter the army of Poison Gu at this time.


    Hiss!


    The sounds that filled the air made one''s skin crawl!


    "The Gu Sect will never let me off? Hmph! Do you think you and your father truly represent the Gu Sect? With the Myriad Gu Cauldron in my hands, it''s not certain who the Gu Sect will actually listen to, right?"


    The Myriad Gu Cauldron is sacred to the Gu Sect and, in theory, should only be in the hands of the Sect Leader. However, Zhuang Bifan, Zhuang Chao''s father, gained the position of Sect Leader through particularly disgraceful means.


    Although Zhuang Bifan is currently recognized as the Sect Leader of the Gu Sect, not everyone is convinced!


    Zhuang Chao''s expression dimmed. Within seconds under the assault of the poison insects, nothing was left of Zhuang Chao but an empty husk.


    After countless blood-red insects crawled out of Zhuang Chao''s carcass, it collapsed instantly, even the husk devoured cleanly by the poison Gu.


    It was as if nothing had happened!


    With Zhuang Chao''s death, the Mother Gu he had raised also perished.


    The poison insects Zhuang Chao had summoned were eradicated with a single command from Ye Fan, leaving no trace behind.


    If not for the pile of stark white bones in the hall, one would never imagine such a horrific scene had just taken place!


    Hiss!


    A gasp echoed in the hall from all the guests.


    Those families previously siding with Feng Hanshao who opposed Ye Fan had been dealt with, and most had already left, but not before attracting the attention of members of Tianji Pavilion.


    The families that had just sided with Gu Sect''s Zhuang Chao had also died by Zhuang Chao''s hand!


    In Flower Capital, those families that opposed the Ye Family, Ye Fan had nearly wiped them all out in one night!


    All of Prince Jin''s forces in Flower Capital had been utterly destroyed!


    Even the Gu Sect, with the death of Young Master Zhuang Chao here, had suffered a heavy blow, and at least for a short time, the Gu Sect dared not create trouble in Flower Capital...


    "Next, it''s your turn, Young Master Zhou!" After resolving Zhuang Chao''s matter, a sigh of relief from people like Pang Hai and Yu Qiang became noticeable, yet Ye Fan''s expression turned stern as he looked towards Zhou Ming!


    Ye Fan had already probed earlier with the Paper Man and found Zhou Ming''s behavior today extremely peculiar!


    That overwhelming presence that suppressed the entire gathering made Ye Fan feel very uneasy...
