Gong Rui, Gong Zhiyu and Gong Huiyu were the most naturally gifted among all of Gong Qiang's adopted children. Several times, Gong Qiang had wanted to make use of the twins in his gold cultivation experiments—but was stopped by Gong Rui.
Perhaps it was because Gong Rui had been with Gong Qiang for the longest and had already become a grown man—as a result, Gong Qiang would sometimes pay heed to Gong Rui's pleas.
However…
This did not mean that Gong Qiang would tolerate Gong Rui's undermining of his authority.
The legend of the giant soldier god had always held a powerful attraction to Gong Qiang. He had put in years of hard research before finally discovering the way to bring the giant soldier god to life.
Human sacrifice.
