C1187 Palace Master Ming Cha

Du Qi had already memorized the expressions of the Gu family members when they first entered the hall. Gu Quanfaang's expression clearly showed that he had some resentment towards Gu Wentian and the others. What he said was most likely trustworthy. Just as Du Qi was about to speak, Gu Quanfaang added, "The lower class people here are not sad for anyone. Furthermore, they are still under the surveillance of Gu Wentian and the rest. Without any freedom, the situation was no different from the elders, protectors, and deacons. Young master, please investigate this matter. "

As soon as Gu Quanfaang's voice fell, someone angrily shouted, "Gu Quanfaang, you are also a member of the Gu family. We will live together, and we will suffer together. Why don't you take the responsibility to beg for mercy from outsiders?"

Gu Quanfaang said in a harsh tone, "Gu Quanshan, do you only know now that we are also members of the Gu family? How do you usually treat us? If your family controls the entire family, all the benefits will be yours. But the work is ours, and that's not all. We still have to endure your bullying and exploitation from time to time. Over the past ten years, how many people have been separated from their families by you? Now, you still have the nerve to say that we will live together, and that we will suffer together?"

Gu Quanfaang's words were immediately echoed by many people, but Gu Quanshan shouted angrily," All of you, shut up! Have all of you forgotten? Who made our Gu family rise up in an unknown way? And who made you feel proud and arrogant in front of your peers in the pugilistic world? It's Tian'er, do you know that? Now that he was harmed by a traitor, not only did you not think about taking revenge, but also... Could it be that your conscience has been eaten by dogs? "

Seeing Gu Quanshan insult and humiliate Du Qi, Nie Fengyang immediately snapped, "How dare you! Young Master Du has passed the Sect Master test, and now he is the Palace Lord of our Chaostic Essence Palace. This was the Yellow Emperor's decree. The Palace Lord will punish that traitor, Gu Wentian. He is using the authority of the Palace Lord to seek justice for us. How can a vile person like you be slandered? "

After hearing Gu Quanfaang and Gu Quanshan's accusations, Du Qi had a rough idea of the current situation of the Gu family. However, he couldn't be bothered with who was right and who was wrong. His goal was to punish the traitor and intimidate others. Therefore, he stopped Nie Fengyang from continuing. Then, he said indifferently, "Gu Quanshan, right? Just based on the fact that you can still say these words in a justified manner right now, you will know what kind of person you are. The blame is all on you for Gu Wentian's fate, and you can't blame anyone else at all. I originally wanted to spare you, but someone like you... What's the point of keeping him alive? "

Gu Quanshan couldn't help but feel stifled when he heard this, but he sneered and said, "Don't say these nice things here. At this point, I know it's difficult for me to live, so give me a swift death!"

Du Qi only glanced coldly at Gu Quanshan before ignoring him. He still said faintly, "Who else was forced to come here? Follow Gu Quanfaang and retreat to the back!"

Gu Quanfaang could not help but rejoice when he heard this. "Many thanks to the Palace Lord!" As he spoke, Gu Quanfaang kowtowed to Du Qi five or six times in a row. After that, he stood up slightly and retreated to the door of the hall before kneeling down again.

Gu Quanfaang didn't know Du Qi's identity before, so he could only address him as young master. Now that he knew Du Qi's identity from Nie Fengyang, he naturally changed his name to Palace Lord.

When the people of the Gu family saw this, some of them didn't hesitate to kowtow to Du Qi and retreat. Some of them hesitated for a moment before making this move. In an instant, more than thirty people retreated to Gu Quanfaang's side. There were still more than ten people who were hesitating. They didn't know if they should retreat together with Gu Quanfaang. At this moment, Gu Quanfaang suddenly pointed at a person and shouted, "Gu Quanzhong, you also have the nerve to follow us?"

Gu Chaozhong's expression changed when he heard this. He glared at Gu Quanfaang hatefully. He hurriedly turned around and knelt on the ground, kowtowing to Du Qi like he was pounding garlic. He said anxiously, "Palace Lord, I was also forced to do nothing. I definitely did not have any intention of deceiving the Palace Lord. I hope that the Palace Lord will be able to find out."

Without waiting for Du Qi to ask, Gu Quanfaang said directly, "When Gu Quanzhong and the others saw how powerful Gu Wentian's faction was, they tried their best to curry favor with and flatter him. They have been urging them to do bad things in the past, but this time, they have come to the Chaostic Essence Sect. Gu Quanzhong and the others were also encouraged to do so. What I said is absolutely true. Palace Lord, please investigate clearly. "

Du Qi knew that Gu Quanfaang spared no effort to testify against others. It was just that he wanted to perform well. Perhaps he still had the intention of atoning for his crimes by giving a light punishment. Regarding this, Du Qi naturally would not blame Gu Quanfaang, nor would he stop Gu Quanfaang.

Hearing Gu Quanfaang's words, Gu Quanzhong felt even more terrified, and he kowtowed hard. He kept saying, "Palace Lord, I was also forced to do nothing about it. Palace Lord, please spare me. I know I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again... "

Du Qi hated people like Gu Jingzhong the most. Not only did he do bad things, he also hated people like Gu Jingzhong. Once he gained power, he would use the tiger's might to harm him even more. Seeing Gu Chaozhong kowtowing and begging for mercy, Du Qi could not help but shout, "Enough, just kneel there and wait for your punishment!"

With Du Qi's words, Gu Quanzhong naturally did not dare to speak anymore. He could only lie there quietly, appearing extremely afraid.

Stopping Gu Chaozhong, Du Qi asked again, "Who else has something to say?"

As soon as Du Qi finished speaking, someone shouted, "I, Palace Lord! I have something to say!"

Du Qi saw that the person who spoke was a man in black in his fifties. When he first entered the hall, he had an indifferent expression. Du Qi had thought that he was not afraid of death, so he had such an expression. Now, he saw a chance to live. He couldn't hold it in anymore? Du Qi couldn't help but ask, "What do you have to say?"

That person said in a casual manner, "Reporting to Palace Lord, this one is Gu Quanjiang, although I am also a member of the Gu family. I am not a direct descendant of the Gu family. So it turns out that my surname is also not Gu. It is only because my ancestors were indebted to the Gu family and then attached themselves to the Gu family. It was only because my surname was Gu that I had my current name. All along, no matter which branch of the Gu family obtained power and authority, they did not truly treat lower class people as members of the Gu family. They only treated lower class people as tools. Or even chess pieces. The lower-class people obeyed the wishes of their ancestors. It was not convenient for them to resist, so they could only be content with the current situation. Hence, for a long time, in the lower class, they had developed a habit of only listening to orders and not asking about the actual situation. This time, lower class people were also following orders. I am not saying this to avoid any blame. I'm just reporting the situation to the Palace Lord so that it can deal with this matter fairly. "

People like Gu Quanjiang were loyal and capable. Moreover, they will never be discounted when carrying out orders, so we can use them without worry. Therefore, people like Gu Quanjiang existed in almost all the families and forces in both the martial arts world and the temple. Du Qi naturally didn't think it was strange when he heard this. He Yan said, "No matter what the reason is, as long as you do something wrong, you have to bear the corresponding consequences. Gu Quanjiang and Gu Quanjiang's situation were similar, so they could also retreat to the back first. Wait for the punishment. "
