Chapter 11: will you stop me?!

Gu Li Cheng took wobbly steps towards Gu Lin Fang as he broke down, "U...Uncle... they killed my father!".

"My sister, I couldn't find her..."

"..." Watching the young man behave like this made him feel a lot of things at the same time and he couldn't help saying, "Enough, aren't you a man? How can you be always this wimpy?!!".

Gu Lin Fang's short outburst, gave him a sense of Deja Vu, memories of himself reprimanding this nephew over the years came into view in his mind, after a while he could only say, "Just go to the side first!".

He suddenly lost the mood to roleplay as the incident threw him off a bit, 'tch...'

Gu Lin Fang looked at the other nine cultivator slaves, luckily three were at the foundation establishment stage while the other ones were in the late qi gathering realm, ranging from seven to nine.

Overall it's a good harvest, if he could make all of them enter the foundation establishment stage ass guards, that would be for the best.

'a sight to behold, but I'm sure the other well off families have it better' He calmly made some calculations as he thought about the future, 'maybe I'll try to investigate the surrounding family's that can pose a threat to me the next time I head out'.

He looked at the expressions on these people's faces, nervous, indignation, despair, sadness and anger.

He didn't care, so he gave out his order for now using his authority as their owner while tossing out the clothes he arranged earlier, "Clean yourselves up and rest, you are not to move more than 10ft outside this mansion".

Honestly, this ability has made him fascinated with arrays... He was ready to study it, too bad each slaver group had their own arrays and would never share.

This also brings him a problem, these kind of arrays isn't something he could depend on for a long time, he began suspecting that this was probably a back up plan for this clan's to use in spying on people.

'which is why, I have to put them in the clan one way or the other, that way I can monitor them with the clan tree and even read their Bio to know what they've been up to recently' Gu Lin Fang called Li Cheng over as he headed towards the basement, but then he paused.

He sniffs around for a second and frowned, "Go take a bath and burn those clothes, wear this after".

Gu Li Cheng quietly took the black cloth Gu Lin Fang gave him and nodded, in fact he wasn't surprised, after all he knows this uncle very well, he has always been a clean freak.

"I'll call for you when I'm done",

Gu Lin Fang left him without hesitation and went towards the secret mechanism that led downstairs while leaving those words.

Now He was 100% certain, the traits and personalities were really affecting him.

"well it's not a bad thing when you think about it, the good ones are really helpful, such as the<Calculating mind> that increases the my thought processing speed and so on, or the <Prodigy> that increases my comprehension and the 50% increase in the amount of Qi my Dantian holds...too bad about 20-25% goes to suppressing <Broken>... I just hope there aren't any other irritating traits or personality like that one."

______________________

It's been almost 45 minutes since he left, so he was hoping Gu Lin ju would be calmer now.

Gu Lin Fang shook his head lightly before touching the wooden torch on the side, this brought the stair case to open view.

"Father?"

"Mmm..." He hummed lightly before looking at the girl scrubbing the floor seriously.

Honestly sometimes, he just doesn't know what to do with this 'Daughter' of his.

Gu Lin ju on the other hand, was nervous and fiddled with the rags in her hands as she averted her gaze from her father, Gu Lin Fang.

She was aware of how much he couldn't stand dirt, so she tried to clean up once she calmed down.

None of them spoke...

After a minute of looking, Gu Lin Fang turned his gaze to the cauldron to observe the changes on the corpse he was refining.

"If you continue like that, people would think you are easy to bully" He finally says, "No need to be so nervous, You are my Gu Lin Fang's Daughter".

Once he was done saying that, he stopped talking to see what she would do next.

She didn't say anything for about 10 minutes plus as she watched Gu Lin Fang toss different strange items and plants into the cauldron.

Whenever a medicinal plant was tossed in, it would melt and blend in with the liquid, making it look like bronze. The corpse's skin was already deep chocolate at this point, it's empty eye sockets staring at the sky looking shocked.

Gu Lin ju finally decided to speak up, "Father, were you always a demon cultivator?".

"..." Gu Lin Fang paused for a bit, trying to arrange his words while thinking 'Good girl!'.

"Yes and No" He glanced at her face before explaining, "what I mean is, yes I am now a demon cultivator..." He released his blood smoky qi before adding, "But wasn't always one, I had always held back because of the clan..."

"But..." Gu Lin ju looked lost, growing up, they had been thought demon cultivators were a scourge to be killed on sight.

Although the clan couldn't be called righteous, It wasn't Evil or dark either.

In fact, you could say their passive nature was what actually led them to this point.

But one thing was certain, Gu Linju never expected her father to be a Demon cultivator. But now She understood, many things finally made sense, stories of him killing hundreds of people with poison and why her mother always kept her away from her father all those years.

She had always been curious but now She knew, she felt speechless.

"The world...or jianghu life isn't as clear as you imagine, where you will see right or wrong in it's clear path." Gu Lin Fang slowly turned to face the girl as he spoke.

He finally knew what he wanted to say.

"Nothing is purely good or purely Evil, think about the Wu Dang sect disciples, to you, do they seem righteous?"

"..."

"Exactly, Good or Evil...what does it matter?...it's all about the perspective, no one really cares about you, unless you either benefit them or block their path...which is why I would do anything for our survival, No, we are doing this for survival," Gu Lin Fang then said gently, "in this world, nothing is more important than strength and survival. Even if you have good intentions, you have to have the strength to survive first."

"When you are strong enough, even if you are a demon cultivator, no one would dare act rashly..." He decided to add a little emotional blackmail, "this is the way to grow stronger quickly to get revenge for your mother, for the clan members!".

"look at the Ghost Demon clan or the Corpse keeping hall, look at the Flower picking scholar or

Severing Phantom Yi Lan xin or is it Crazed Swallow Tang Xin ya?, This are all Demon Sects or people who stand out but you don't see people actively doing anything because... they stand strong!."

He then concluded with, "I'm making the Gu clan, a Demon clan...are you going to stop me now?".

"..." Gu Lin ju quickly shook her head while wiping tears from her face. Honestly, she didn't really care anymore when she heard this was the fastest way to get revenge, besides the only person she cared about was already a demon cultivator, so she didn't care about anyone else.

In fact, She didn't doubt his words for one bit, after all There were well known Demon Sects standing proudly in the open, and no one...

"Disperse your cultivation, I'll give you My cultivation method for you to use...you should be able to get your cultivation back in a week since you already have the necessary knowledge" Gu Lin Fang spoke softly while moving towards the spirit gathering formation.

"cultivate here from now on, only come out when you need something important, I'll assign a servant to you... By the time you hit the foundation establishment stage I would have already found the rats who should have died all those years ago"

"..." Gu Linju has never been so determined about anything in her life but at this very moment, she swore to do everything in her power to protect those that mattered to her.

Gu Lin Fang looked at her expression and said, "don't be afraid, your body cultivation is already at the foundation establishment stage because of our bloodline, once your cultivation catches up, I'll teach you some battle techniques for you to practice"

As he spoke, She already dispersed her cultivation with a mini explosion that looked like something crashed.

Seeing the faith she had in him, He didn't disappoint and shared his <Blood Demon Tao> through the system.

A white light left his palm and flew in between her eyebrows as she quickly sat on the array.

He left some spirit stones and pills next to her for consumption, luckily the cultivation method matches their bloodline perfectly, so he believes in his judgement.

'You are the only one besides me that would be allowed to use this <Blood Demon Tao>, I'll have to look for another cultivation method as an extra for the clan...' Gu Lin Fang watched the girl cultivate while making his decision.

He then brought out paper from his spatial ring, along with a brush and ink. This were part of the things he had bought from Chang auction.

He then wrote a list with his messy skills before setting it aside for later.

Once done, Gu Lin Fang stood up and muttered as he opened the world map,"I should find out more on that Pan mansion".
