Cultivation Online Chapter 1380 A Darker Path

1380 A Darker Path

"Kulas! Do you need my help?" Tian Yang asked him after his fight ended.

"Wha—?! What happened to Gu Yazhu and Fu Lingxin?! What did you do to them?!" Gu Lim roared at Tian Yang when he couldn't see his friends around.

Tian Yang sneered, "Isn't it obvious that I killed them?"

"YOU BASTARD!" Gu Lim suddenly stopped paying attention to Kulas and charged at Tian Yang.

"We are not finished yet!" Kulas imdiately went to intercept him.

"Get out of my way, Kulas! Do you truly intend on fighting to the death with ?! My family will not let this slide even if it's you!" Gu Lim roared at him.

"Don't talk as if I started this! You were the one who approached us—provoked us! Don't you dare make it sound like you are the victim here, Gu Lim!" Kulas shouted back, his strikes getting fiercer and quicker.

Gu Lim began panicking at this point. He knew that he couldn't defeat Kulas alone. The sole reason for challenging Kulas in the first place had been the support of his group, but now, with them absent and dead, he found himself utterly helpless.

As Kulas pushed Gu Lim further and further towards death, Gu Lim's desperation peaked.

"S-Stop it! This isn't funny, Kulas! If you kill , my family will not forgive you! Are you going to be able to handle the consequences?!"

Kulas halted his movents shortly after hearing Gu Lim's words. Sure enough, while he wouldn't have any problem dealing with Gu Lim's buddies, he couldn't directly kill Gu Lim himself, who was the young master of the Immortal Gu Clan, as that could potentially lead to war between the Immortal Might Clan and the Immortal Gu Clan.

"That's right, Kulas! You cannot kill unless you want our families to go to war!" It was as though Gu Lim could read Kulas' mind, showing a relieved smile on his face.

However, just as Gu Lim felt safe, he sensed a presence suddenly appear behind him like a ghost.

"Wha—"

Gu Lim turned around, but before he could fully turn around to see who was behind him, he sensed a cold sensation breeze past his neck.

Kulas' eyes widened with shock when he witnessed Tian Yang kill Gu Lim without hesitation.

"What have you done!" he swallowed nervously.

"You couldn't kill him, right? In that case, I will do it for you." Tian Yang said with a relatively calm expression on his face.

"Do you have any idea who you just killed? That was the young master of the Immortal Gu Clan—their patriarch's favorite son! Once they learn of what happened here, they will hunt you down like a dog for the rest of your life!"

Tian Yang shook his head and said, "If I had let him live, he wouldn't let scott free, so it wouldn't have mattered if I killed him or not. They will hunt down regardless, so I might as well take care of him now."

Unable to refute Tian Yang's logic, Kulas gritted his teeth. He looked at the shocked spectators and sighed, "You could've at least waited until there's nobody to witness it, but now…"

Tian Yang looked at the crowd and smiled, "Even if I killed him out of sight, these people have already seen us argue and fight with him, so it would only be a matter of ti before they realize I killed him.

"Don't worry, Kulas. You weren't the one who killed him, so you can pin all the bla onto . With so many witnesses here, I doubt his family will go through the trouble of blaming you."

"I couldn't care less about that!"

"Why don't we continue our conversation sowhere else?" Tian Yang suddenly said.

"Sure…"

However, before leaving the scene, Tian Yang made sure to take Gu Lim's spatial ring, just as he did with the other two he defeated.

Once they were gone, the crowd that witnessed Gu Lim's death went into an uproar.

"This is huge news! Gu Lim is dead!"

"Fuck! I can already imagine the Immortal Gu Clan's reaction once they learn of this news!"

"Who the hell was that person, anyway? I don't recognize him."

Unsurprisingly, nobody there recognized Tian Yang, so even if they were questioned about him later, they would only be able to give a description of Tian Yang's appearance and that he was Kulas' 'friend'.

Soti later, Tian Yang and Kulas stopped by a large boulder and continued their conversation.

"So, what are you going to do now?" Kulas asked.

Tian Yang lifted his head to stare at the clear sky and sighed, "I honestly don't know. I have managed to reach my full potential and finally acquired the talent that I could only dream of, but what good is my talent when I am going to be hunted by the Immortal Clans?"

"I must have sohow offended the heavens or sothing in my past life to have such terrible luck."

Kulas pondered for a mont before speaking, "How about joining my Immortal Might Clan? We'll try to protect you from the Immortal Gu Clan."

Tian Yang smiled and said, "I appreciate the offer—truly. However, we both know that won't work. The Immortal Might Clan has no reason to protect and would rather give up to spare them the trouble, especially since you are partially involved, and I doubt it'll just be the Immortal Gu Clan that I'll have to worry about."

"In fact, you should probably stay away from starting now. It would be bad for you to associate with any longer since it would give the Immortal Gu Family more reasons to go after you."

"Cut the bullshit! The only reason you are in this situation is because of ! Gu Lim wouldn't have provoked you if you weren't with !" Kulas exclaid.

He clenched his fists in anger until they bled, muttering in a shivering voice, "What's the point of saving your life if I just lead you down an even darker path later...? I'm such a terrible 'friend'..."
