Transcending the Nine Heavens

This person was actually the second young master of the Ji Clan! According to his memory of his previous life, there was no such person. Firstly, it was because his time in Middle Three Heavens was simply too short. Furthermore, he did not remember everyone clearly.

If this person was capable of gaining Gu Du Xing's attention, he could not be weak at all!

"Are you not going to greet the boss?"

When Gu Du Xing noticed that Ji Mo was still standing idly there, he became grumpy and gave him a few kicks on the buttocks.

"Ahhh…" Ji Mo rubbed his rear angrily and bowed reluctantly, "Boss!"

"Great! Since you are here, let's be brothers!" Chu Yang smiled and nodded in delight.

"His name is Luo Ke Di, the second young master of the Luo clan. His nickname is Coyote. He might behave like a lone wolf, but it's just a façade. He loves to falsify his persona." Gu Du Xing pointed to another young man and continued introducing his new recruits. Although this young man had an icy look, his eyes were actually extremely full of life. Based on his appearance, it could be seen that he was not arrogant.

"Ah, I have admired you for a long time!" Chu Yang smiled and nodded again.

"Hello, boss." Luo Ke Di bowed and added, "Gu Du Xing invited me by force. This bastard does not hold any regard for our old friendship; I hope that you can do me justice."

He had just been introduced, yet he had already filed a complaint.

"Ah, you're unable to beat him?" Chu Yang asked.

"I am no match for him." Luo Ke Di replied honestly, "If I could beat him, I would have hung him upside down and spanked him a hundred times already!"

"Well, that's it! He harassed you because you can't beat him; that's perfectly normal!" Chu Yang smiled and replied excitedly. These words surprised all the second young masters, especially Luo Ke Di, whose eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Motherf*cker! This boss has some personality!

"Do you want to harass him back?" Chu Yang tempted Luo Ke Di.

"Of course I do!" Luo Ke Di shouted loudly, "Even when I'm dreaming…"

Suddenly, he let out a sigh and said with a dejected face, "Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult!"

"Just follow me and do a good job. I'll make sure that you get this opportunity!" Chu Yang winked cheekily.

"Thank you, boss! If I could have the chance to torture Gu Du Xing just once, I am most willing to be your ox or even your horse!" Luo Ke Di replied bluntly.

"Ha! Even if you had three lifetimes, you won't be able to lay a finger on me!" Gu Du Xing replied scornfully before he proceeded to introduce the third person.

"This is Dong Wu Shang, the second young master of the Dong clan. This clan is the only clan in Middle Three Heavens that use sabers."

Dong Wu Shang had a dark skin and was only around 18 to 19 years old. He carried a saber on his back, which had a scabbard that was as dark as black ink. When his eyes looked up, Chu Yang felt as if there were two sabers flying towards him!

Chu Yang was pleasantly surprised.

In Chu Yang's previous life, Dong Wu Shang was an extremely famous man! He was one of the twelve powerful forces in Middle Three Heavens. 'Black Saber One Thousand Talents Evil Young Master', the protector of the Dong clan, was actually standing right in front of him.

After gaining his fame, Dong Wu Shang fought a few hundred battles, both big and small ones. He never once lost a battle and was never injured.

However, at this moment, Dong Wu Shang had not amounted to anything yet.

"Black Saber clan?" Chu Yang's gaze remained as cool as an autumn pond while he asked casually.

"Yes, Black Saber clan!" Dong Wu Shang displayed a look of surprise on his face. He had not expected a person from Lower Three Heavens to know about the name 'Black Saber clan'.

This clan was called the 'Black Saber clan' because everyone in the Dong clan used sabers that were as dark as black ink.

"Very good!" Chu Yang would never have imagined that two out of the twelve future powerful characters could appear right in front of his very eyes at this present moment. Besides, they were now his martial brothers!

"This person is Rui Bu Tong. He found me; I didn't find him!" Gu Du Xing pointed to a thin youth dressed in black that stood beside him and continued, "We knew each other because I had helped him out before. This punk had remembered me and decided to tag along to repay me; it's really annoying! When I announced that I was recruiting people, he came to join without a second thought."

"Rui Bu Tong…" Chu Yang's brows twitched as he was exhilarated. Today, good fortune had been coming continuously. This Rui Bu Tong would eventually become an infamous bandit roaming all over Middle Three Heavens. According to the legends, he did not respect anyone else besides the Lone Traveler Gu Du Xing. He was the spoilsport of the generation.

No one knew his background or where he had come from. He always remained a loner. However, whenever Gu Du Xing needed help, Rui Bu Tong was always the first person to stand by his side. Needless to say, Rui Bu Tong was a quiet person of few words. He simply looked at Chu Yang, smiled, nodded, and bowed. Among this group of new recruits, he was the only person that did not display any rebellious look towards Chu Yang.

"Well, I am honored to introduce our boss, Chu Yang!"

Gu Du Xing's bone-piercing, ice-cold gaze were aimed at the four new recruits, "Remember! Whoever disrespects the boss is equivalent to disrespecting me! Brothers are brothers, but rules are rules! If anyone dares to go against the rules of Heavenly Armament Pavilion, don't complain that my sword has no mercy!"

"Rest assured, Boss Gu. Just one word from you, and I'll ensure that anyone who does not follow the rules will not even have an underwear to put on the next morning!" Rui Bu Tong smiled and replied jokingly.

The other three snorted weakly, indicating that they would fully comply.

In Middle Three Heavens, they did not respect anyone and would fight fiercely with one another. On many occasions, someone would even be severely injured. They would never have thought that Gu Du Xing would gather them all in one place… This was an incredibly ridiculous thing to do.

In fact, Dong Wu Shang's clan had explicitly told him that in this outing, he had to deal with Luo Ke Di's clan.

Furthermore, the Ji clan was an opponent of the Dong and Luo clan; both clans wanted to deal with the Ji clan.

On the other hand, the Luo clan was an opponent of the Dong clan and the Ji clan.

With such rivalry, how could they live together peacefully in one place

"We don't have clans here; only brothers!" Chu Yang could see through their hearts. He thought to himself, "This Gu Du Xing is really talented; he mentioned that he was going to recruit these type of Second little ancestors, and he has indeed delivered only Second little ancestors."

None of these guys were foolish either.

"According to my knowledge, the clans would send King level masters as bodyguards when young people like you venture out. Why don't you guys have any?" Chu Yang asked.

These words were a direct insult to them, making the three Second little ancestors infuriated.

"King level bodyguards? Why would I need bodyguards with my great strength?" Ji Mo replied angrily.

"Yes! I never bring bodyguards with me when I go out!" Luo Ke Di spat on the ground and responded with disdain.

"What are bodyguards? I have never used them ever since I started running on my own!" Dong Wu Shang glared.

"All of you, shut up! Is this the attitude to use when speaking to the boss?" Gu Du Xing shouted at them before revealing everything, "They don't have the status to get to bring bodyguards along with them. Although they were able to become second young masters with their strengths, they are all lower-born in their clans…"

"Oh…" Chu Yang let out a deep sigh. Immediately, the three faces turned red.

"What's lower-born?" The moment Rui Bu Tong asked this question, the other three turned to stare at him.

Without any cue, the three of them rushed at him together, wrestling him to the ground. Next, his poor body was pounded with countless punches.

From the very beginning, the three had already disliked Rui Bu Tong. Along the way, he had helped Gu Du Xing to harass them. They had pent-up frustration but did not dare to take any action. However, now that they were making their move, all three rushed up towards him.

His words were like a sharp knife striking at the hearts of these three. With such a heaven-sent opportunity, how could they simply pass it up? This was the first time that the three of them actually cooperated with one another.

After they were done with the beating, Ji Mo rolled his eyes and exclaimed, "Lower-born means being born by a concubine. Motherf*cker! I am the child of that bastard and his concubine! My mother is a concubine! Understood?!"

"Do you hate him?" Chu Yang rubbed his chin and asked. He felt that these people were really interesting.

"Hate? No!" Ji Mo sighed and replied sadly, "With him in my life, I don't think I will ever be able to hate! All sons are given names for their destiny. Instead, he gave me the name 'Ji Mo'! [1] Does he want me to be alone for the rest of my life? Yet, I somehow managed to have a lot of friends!"

"These brothers have no future in their clans because of their birth. Therefore, I've brought them together, in hopes that they will follow you and make a future for themselves!" Gu Du Xing replied sincerely.

"Wouldn't everything change if you beat the eldest young masters?" Chu Yang was frustrated as he remembered that Mo Cheng Yu had mentioned that this was how the Mo clan was.

"That only applies to the legitimate children." Gu Du Xing explained, "Children of concubines have no place. The highest position that they can ever achieve is second young master; they cannot advance any further! In the case that the eldest young master dies, they would just choose one of the legitimate descendants to replace him. They would never choose an illegitimate child!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Yang said, "Oh." However, what he really wanted to ask was this: How did you, Gu Du Xing, manage to rise to the position of the clan leader in the previous life? Did you slaughter all the legitimate descendants?

"Well, let's cut to the chase! Hey, Chu Yang!" Dong Wu Shang said coldly, "We could join Heavenly Armament Pavilion, but the rankings need to be re-negotiated."

This punk had just opened his mouth and called Chu Yang by his name; there was no respect at all.

Luo Ke Di and Ji Mo's eyes lit up as well. Perhaps, the three of them had discussed this beforehand.

"What did you say?" Gu Du Xing bellowed, feeling like he had just lost face. His face turned blood red. His eyes flashed fiercely and his hand was ready on his sword hilt; a murderous aura was pouring out.

"Boss Gu, we have already talked about this! We wanted to see the boss first." Dong Wu Shang took a step back, but there was not a single trace of fear in his eyes as he continued calmly, "We are just curious. We never agreed that we would definitely work for him! Of course, if you are the boss, I, Dong Wu Shang, would have nothing to say!"
