Childhood Friend of the Zenith - Chapter 195

Chapter 195: Know Your Place (3)

Know Your Place (3)

How is this possible?

Unable to conceal his astonishment, Gu Changjun continued to stare right at Gu Yangcheon.

The almighty I, mistook him for someone else?

It might have all happened so suddenly, but for him to mistake Gu Yangcheon as the Lord.

Gu Changjun couldnt believe it.

Even if that bastard overcame his wall!

It was faint, but he saw it.

Gu Yangcheon had surpassed the wall to reach the Peak Realm.

The fact that Gu Yangcheon had achieved this feat at such a young age, while his own grandson and hope, Gu Jeolyub, had not, seemed like a twist of fate working against him.

But putting aside that point, such a thing couldnt be possible.

The flames that came from Gu Yangcheon were so terrifyingly similar to the flames that the Lord displayed back in the past.

The martial art itself was bound to look similar as they were using the same art of their clan, but that wasnt what Gu Changjun was referring to.

The terrifying blaze that only the bloodlines of the clan used.

The appearance of the flames, resembling a ravenous beast, roaring and voraciously consuming everything in its path, felt eerily familiar.

The similarity was so striking that Gu Changjuns mistake seemed almost justified.

This meant that he was also that much more powerful.

But even so

The level of flames had to be different.

Even if the Lord wasnt in his prime anymore because of time passing,

For Gu Changjun to mistake that young brat as the lord, it started to make Gu Changjun wonder if that child was just skilled in controlling his flames.

And if that wasnt the case

I knew it, my body is

You seem a bit shocked, considering you arent saying anything.

!

This was a gift back to you for the gift that you gave, First Elder. What do you think about it?

Gu Yangcheon was smiling.

His wide smile only made him look scarier.

However, the anger woven into his voice contradicted his outward demeanor.

Gu Changjun forced himself to compose his expression, and then asked Gu Yangcheon.

Gift you say. I dont know what I did for our Yangcheon to be this angry.

What do you mean by angry, First Elder sir? How could I be angry when you gave me a gift?

Rustle.

Gu Yangcheons footsteps on the scorched ground made Gu Changjun uneasy.

And going back to the anger thing, I cant afford to be angry because of an animal.

Gu Changjun frowned upon hearing Gu Yangcheons blunt words.

After all, it was clear to whom Gu Yangcheon was referring.

Your mouth became rougher during the time weve not seen each other, it seems. And here is me, thinking you actually matured. Do you not know who you are speaking to?

How could I become mature in such a short amount of time? Furthermore,

Pow-!



Gu Yangcheon kicked the faltering guard in the face and knocked him unconscious.

The guard lost consciousness, blood spilling from his mouth.

I learned that there should be a limit for me to remain pretending to be nice. I was very well-trained when it came to that.

You!

Slaaaam!

When Gu Changjun stomped his feet onto the ground out of anger, a wave of Qi spread out to the nearby area.

The stomp of a martial artist who had reached the Fusion Realm was enough to reverberate through all of Gu Sunmoon

But Gu Yangcheons expression didnt change one bit.

I dont know what caused you to throw a tantrum, but even if you are a direct bloodline of the clan, there should be a limit to your arrogance!

If thats not the case, perhaps you are desperate?

What?

Gu Changjun questioned what Gu Yangcheon meant, but Gu Yangcheon wasnt where he previously was.

A breeze passed by for an instant,

And Gu Changjun hurriedly and instinctively swung his sword, only to find it cutting through nothing.

A sharp sword slash cleaved through the air and along with flames forming at that spot, it disappeared while leaving a faint trace.

Hes not there!

He swung his sword toward the source of the presence, but funnily enough, all that remained was a small remnant of fire.

Then Where!

Slam!

A small fist broke through the formidable Qi barrier enveloping his waist.

Despite the fact that the Qi barrier around Gu Changjuns body was in no way weak in any form, the fist broke through the barrier as if it were a mere sheet of paper.

Pow!

Ugh!

The impact of the fist colliding with his body produced an explosive sound, causing Gu Changjuns body to convulse heavily.

Thankfully, he didnt lose his posture and was sent up in the air.

Chhhhh!

But he was pushed back with his feet forming skid marks on the ground.

Cough!

When he finally managed to take a breath, blood came out of Gu Changjuns mouth.

It was just one attack, and the attack made contact only after being slowed down by the barrier, so the damage should have been small, but the pain that started from his waist disrupted the stability of his Inner Qi, tormenting his body.

Haaa

Rather than dwelling on the fact that he had been attacked by Gu Yangcheon, Gu Changjun found himself sighing at the level of prowess exhibited by Gu Yangcheon in that single blow.

He hid his presence for an instant to ambush.

Moreover, he created a silhouette of himself inside the flames while hiding his real presence to trick him.

And even on top of that, the fist that dug through his waist.

Gu Changjun knew how powerful his Qi had to be for him to execute such an attack and Gu Yangcheon exhibited flawless movements with a level of skill that left Gu Changjun astonished.

Hes a monster.

It had only been a year since Gu Yangcheon had become active in martial arts.

Even if Gu Yangcheon had genius talents that even the lord had failed to recognize, a level like this didnt make sense.

Ring-

!

Sensing a presence, Gu Changjun readied his sword once again.

The presence he felt wasnt a mistake this time.

After all, Gu Yangcheon was practically giving his position away purposely this time.

How lame.

A voice emerged from the darkness.

In the wake of the giant flame that had overwhelmed the guards of Gu Sunmoon, the only discernible feature was the red glowing eyes of Gu Yangcheon shining in the darkness.

You brat, even if you landed a blow thanks to a miracle!

Miracle? How could you use that as an excuse with a body that cant even react properly?

What?

After hearing Gu Yangcheon speak in a mocking tone, Gu Changjun felt the sensation of his heart skipping a beat.

It seemed as if Gu Yangcheon knew something.

Whether he was aware of Gu Changjuns thoughts or not, Gu Yangcheon smiled while shaking off his hands.

After hearing him speak with certainty,

Your body. Its destroyed, no? Especially your heart.

!

Gu Changjuns thin beard quivered.
