Upon hearing Duan Gujin's words, Mu Feiyan quickly nodded in agreement, "Okay, from now on, do as your master says!"
Mu Feiyan thought to herself that since it was an instruction from Duan Gujin's master, there must be a profound intention behind it, and she need not delve further into it.
Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and after a moment of thought, she felt that the words of Duan Gujin's master were correct.
"Mother, you no longer need to worry about me as before! I have grown up now, and I have a very powerful master, so you can be at ease! I will no longer be as confused and timid as before! My master told me that a true man should have the determination to turn the tide and the courage to resolutely face all challenges! It seems calm on the surface of the Duan Family now, but underneath, the currents are turbulent! The Duan Family is actually in grave danger! Mother, you must be prepared for the Duan Family to be overturned at any time!"
Duan Gujin spoke with profound meaning.
Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Mu Feiyan's eyes widened, and she involuntarily gasped.
She had never imagined that her son could speak such meaningful words, and she nodded vigorously in agreement, replying affirmatively.
After Mu Feiyan left, Duan Gujin continued to sit cross-legged, cultivating his vital energies, enhancing his strength.
Two days later, he arrived at the Duan Family's cultivation location.
Outside the Duan Family's cultivation grounds, he saw a large group of Duan Family Disciples gathered together.
Upon his arrival, the large group of Duan Family Disciples swiftly surrounded him.
"What do you want to do?"
Duan Gujin knew that this group of Duan Family Disciples had ill intentions; his mind stirred, and he quickly prepared for battle.
"Our eldest brother Ye Wanghui has sent me to give you this challenge letter; you better sign here and fight our brother on the arena!"
A robust Duan Family Disciple pointed at Duan Gujin's face and shouted loudly.
"Don't point your finger at me!"
Duan Gujin's Primordial Power burst out instantly, and four red Heavenly Dragon Martial Souls appeared above his head.
He grabbed the wrist of the Duan Family Disciple who was pointing at him and twisted it quickly and forcefully.
The Duan Family Disciples present heard a crisp crack, followed by the pained scream of the disciple like a slaughtered pig.
"Ah ah ah ah!"
Moments later, the group of Duan Family Disciples saw that the wrist of the man who had pointed at Duan Gujin was broken.
Witnessing this, they all gasped in shock.
"How ruthless!"
The thought flashed synchronously through the minds of the gathering, and they were all momentarily stunned; they had not expected Duan Gujin to be so fierce.
Duan Gujin took the challenge letter and said coldly, "There are rules for Duan Family Disciples to challenge in the arena. Do you intend to break the rules of the Duan Family?"
It appeared that Duan Gujin had already guessed that these Duan Family Disciples surrounded him simply to coerce him into participating in this arena challenge.
He thought for a moment and knew why these Duan Family Disciples resorted to such methods to compel him.
Those Duan Family Disciples initially wanted to rush up and teach Duan Gujin a lesson, but after exchanging looks, none of them dared to make a move.
After all, they were just Branch Disciples of the Duan Family, while Duan Gujin was a genuine Direct Disciple of the Duan Family.
Unless Duan Gujin had committed a serious crime, attacking a Direct Disciple here would be a severe offense.
"Get lost! Don't let me see you again!" Duan Gujin said coldly.
"You!"
When the Duan Family Disciples heard Zhou Qing's provocative words, they looked at each other hesitantly, before finally one of the disciples noticed the four red Heavenly Dragon Martial Souls above Duan Gujin's head and concluded that his strength was not strong.
Thus, that Duan Family Disciple charged at Duan Gujin, aiming to catch him off guard.
"How audacious! To dare ambush me!"
Duan Gujin roared, his mind flickered and he disappeared from the sight of the gathering Duan Family Disciples.
The next moment, a loud bang echoed, and they saw a figure flash before their eyes, and then that figure heavily collided with the wall.
"Ouch!" The figure lying on the ground wailed in pain, screaming as miserably as a slaughtered pig.
Seeing the condition of the disciple, the Duan Family Disciples gasped in shock and hesitated.
They also saw the four glowing red Heavenly Dragon Martial Souls above Duan Gujin's head, and recalled the disciple who was just knocked down, whose cultivation was of six red Heavenly Dragon Martial Souls.
"Good heavens! Who would have thought that Duan Gujin could defeat someone with six red Heavenly Dragon Martial Souls so easily!"
Thinking thus, some of the previously eager Duan Family Disciples immediately stopped their advances, simultaneously coming to a realization.
"That Duan Gujin had been pretending all along! His true strength is at least at the Postnatal Red Ninth Layer!"
The Duan Family Disciples pondered for a while and then no one dared to make a move against Duan Gujin anymore.
"Get out!"
Duan Gujin swept a cold gaze over the Duan Family Disciples, they all bowed their heads, touched their noses ashamedly, and scurried away.
Indeed, they were terrified by Duan Gujin; they had no idea how to confront him.
Soon, those Duan Family Disciples relayed their experience to Duan Tianlang.
Duan Tianlang did not scold them; he knew from then on, Duan Gujin and the Branch Disciples of the Duan Family were opposed.
This was absolutely great news for him; he successfully drove a wedge between Duan Gujin and the Branch Disciples, ensuring they could never cooperate to oppose him in the future.
Of course, Duan Tianlang would not place his hopes of overcoming Duan Gujin on those Branch Disciples; he knew that in the intense power struggle within the Duan Family, these Branch Disciples could only play the role of bystanders and wouldn't be of much use.
"I hope Ye Wanghui can return soon and teach Duan Gujin a harsh lesson!"
Duan Tianlang's eyes flitted as he pondered for a while, thinking of many methods.
Although he thought of many ways to deal with Duan Gujin, he understood that he still needed to wait for the right opportunity to implement those plans.
Once again entering the gravity Cultivation Room, although Duan Gujin had no Elixir Pills to consume, he still devoted himself to cultivation.
His cultivation was ferocious; he combined the cultivation of Undying Heart Bone with the gravity in the room.
Undying Heart Bone severely drained his bodily Primordial Power, soon his body was covered in sweat, and some of his skin even oozed blood.
If someone were present, seeing Duan Gujin's body with not a single piece of skin unscathed, bleeding almost everywhere, they would find it horrifying.
Despite the painful and difficult cultivation, Duan Gujin knew that only through such brutal methods could he rapidly enhance his strength.
After all, for him, quickly improving his strength was the most crucial matter; all other concerns felt trivial.
