Even though he said that, Gu Ran could still feel a hint of nervousness in the other person's emotions.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that they saw that he had just killed Du Shang.
"What did Xue Yingsong give you? ... A strong man like you shouldn't be his dog. His broadcast is illegal! We have the final say in Canglong City!"
An old man who looked a little grumpy said with a snort.
"If you vote with us, we can make you a new member. You will become the youngest permanent council member of the ruling center, the new elder."
An old man who looked quite shrewd said.
"Humph, you don't have to waste your energy. I think this kid is very determined. We might as well just join forces to kill him."
The last elder was not very old. On the contrary, he looked quite young, like an ordinary middle-aged man.
Standing next to them was Lilith, the demon general of the abyss. She didn't say a word, but just looked at Gu Ran with interest.
"Indeed, you don't even look at who you are working with. The warriors from Jidong City are fine, but Canglong City is at least a matter within our human alliance. However, demons are creatures of the abyss, and are completely different from us humans."
Gu Ran did not start fighting with the elders immediately, but asked.
"Haha, if the president of Lanxin University hadn't pushed them too hard, how could they have thought of reaching an agreement with the Abyss?"
"There is only one way to save them now, and that is to cooperate with me and the abyss."
Lilith looked at Gu Ran and smiled charmingly.
"But I can remind you that the reason why some people in the ruling center agreed to cooperate with the Abyss and the Far East City is because there are very great benefits. The warriors in the Far East City have good things."
"Besides, if you continue to be our enemy, I will join the battle, and I will not show mercy."
"Are you sure you can defeat so many powerful people working together?"
"You don't think that just because you defeated me before, that really means I am strong enough, right?"
169.Shocked! It turns out that the real insider is... ... 4k
Gu Ran glanced at the scene, and he did not doubt Lilith's statement.
In fact, he was not as confident as he appeared when facing so many powerful people, but as he had said to Xue Yingsong before, he reserved the right to retreat if the situation was unfavorable.
"You are actually afraid of me." Gu Ran smiled faintly, "If you were not afraid of me, you wouldn't have gathered together and shamelessly said that you would join forces to deal with me.
"This doesn't sound like something a powerful person who controls a main city would say. Instead, it sounds like something a coward would say."
The old man who looked very shrewd narrowed his eyes dangerously and said coldly: "Humph, what kind of morality and fairness are you talking about with rebellious evil demons like you? Rioters like you who rebel against the ruling center should be killed by everyone."
"You are very good at putting the blame on someone else." Gu Ran clapped his hands. "You said you were rebelling against the ruling center. Then let me ask you, why does the ruling center exist, and why does the standing council of the ruling center exist
"The reason why the ruling center can represent Canglong City is because it is safeguarding the overall interests of Canglong City. That's why the people of Canglong City recognize the power of the ruling center. But now it's no longer the case. You insects regard the ruling center as your private property, which has violated this principle. So resisting you is not rebellion, but punishment for the crimes! Restoring order!"
Gu Ran's words left the elders speechless for a moment, and they didn't know how to refute.
Because what Gu Ran said was indeed what they wanted to accomplish.
In the end, he could only smash the table in anger and snorted.
"What a sharp-tongued boy! But what qualifications do you have to represent the interests of all the people in Canglong City? You are just a group of arrogant people who want to steal the central power."
Then, several elders used martial arts, displayed their supernatural powers, and attacked Gu Ran at the same time.
They were indeed afraid of the young man who killed Du Shang with one blow, and they now suspected that Li Zhongming was also killed by this young man.
Two of the seven most honorable people who should have stood at the pinnacle of power in Canglong City died at once, which could not but make them feel terrified.
Therefore, they immediately agreed to cooperate with the Abyss Demons and the Far East City Warriors, although they were originally hesitant.
To resist foreign aggression, one must first stabilize the internal situation. No matter what, one must first put down the "rebellion" in Canglong City.
The joint attack of several key elders was quite coordinated. From the route of attack to the order of front and back, they just blocked several main angles of Gu Ran.
But Lilith did not participate for the time being. She just watched with an ambiguous smile on her face.
Even though most of the overflowing force was restrained in order to better concentrate the attack power, the remaining little bit of overflowing force made the entire hall instantly become somewhat fragile, as if it was made of tofu, and it broke into countless cracks and fragments.
“The speed is... a bit slow.”
As Gu Ran exerted his full mental power, the attacks of the elders in the hall seemed to have entered bullet time, allowing Gu Ran to see it clearly.
"I...have become stronger again?"
Gu Ran was a little surprised.
Yes, he was not clear about it before when he didn't fully expand the range of his telekinesis, but at this moment he felt that his telekinesis had evolved to a certain extent.
"There is a flaw..."
Having completed a certain "evolution", Gu Ran was able to see more clearly and "predict" the attacks of several elders, and his physical strength was enough for him to keep up with his "eyesight".
Gu Ran first slightly turned his body, kicked one of the elders away, then turned around and punched another one.
After that, all of them were kicked or smashed away by him with three punches and two kicks.
Gu Ran did not feel any difficulty in the whole process, as if he was not facing the elder of Canglong City, but was beating a little kid.
In a flash, the elders who had been so arrogant were lying on the ground in shock, looking at Gu Ran.
"It seems that I have overestimated you. With your strength... can you become the elder of Canglong City?"
Gu Ran raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise.
Gu Ran was indeed a little surprised. This task seemed not as difficult as he had originally imagined.
But the more sincere Gu Ran's tone seemed, the more they wanted to vomit blood.
As the elders of the ruling center of Canglong City, they had never thought that there would be someone who could fight against their alliance. Even Xiao Chaofeng, who Xue Yingsong relied on the most, could not do it.
But the fact now is that even if the five of them join forces, they are really no match for this guy.
Although they are not seriously injured and still have the strength to fight, it has to be said that what happened just now has dealt a heavy blow to them psychologically.
However, this is not enough to make them despair, because they still have some cards to reveal.
"There is still no fluctuation of spiritual power in your body... What exactly are you practicing? Why are you so fast? Why is your physical strength so strong?"
Suddenly, an old man's face changed and he said in shock.
The other elders also changed their expressions.
After this reminder, they also noticed it.
This is beyond their understanding.
Lilith looked at Gu Ran, her pupils suddenly shrank, and her expression was no longer relaxed, but alert.
"Want to know? But I'm not obligated to tell you." Gu Ran smiled slightly, appearing very kind.
However, this smile seemed extremely sarcastic in the eyes of several elders.
"Damn it, do you think you are sure to win? Your strength is indeed beyond our previous expectations, but no matter how strong you are, there are forces in this world that you cannot deal with."
An elder said viciously, gritting his teeth.
"Oh?" Gu Ran's heart moved.
"Hara Laiqing, if you don't take action now, our cooperation will be cancelled!"
At this moment, a mysterious force flooded the scene like a tide.
Everything fell into a strange stagnation.
But in this stagnation, there was a figure who was able to move freely. He came to Gu Ran's side lightly like a fish swimming in the water.
Then, a dagger stabbed into Gu Ran's chest.
Under the stagnation, Gu Ran's thinking and actions became slow.
The dagger successfully pierced Gu Ran's chest, but what surprised the figure was that his dagger did not penetrate Gu Ran's chest as he wished.
After the figure felt Gu Ran's physical strength, he gritted his teeth and sprayed a mouthful of blood onto the dagger.
The essence and blood were absorbed by the dagger in an instant. After absorbing the essence and blood, the dagger became agile and began to automatically absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
After just a short moment, the dagger seemed to be full and stopped absorbing. It even paused slightly, as if it was burping.
After the dagger stopped absorbing spiritual energy, the figure held the dagger and continued to stab Gu Ran's chest.
A sense of threat arose in Gu Ran's heart, but the stagnation of his thoughts and actions prevented him from responding in time.
The dagger successfully pierced Gu Ran's chest.
But before the figure could rejoice for long, he found that his dagger seemed to be stuck in a very uncomfortable stagnation, as if he was stabbing hard rubber with a rusty blade.
The figure immediately used up all his strength, veins bulging on his body, and he almost gritted his teeth as he stabbed the dagger into Gu Ran's chest.
When the dagger finally pierced Gu Ran's chest completely, the sense of stagnation that enveloped the scene finally disappeared.
The figure immediately jumped away from Gu Ran, as if afraid of Gu Ran's counterattack.
"Haha, Hara Yorikiyo, well done! As expected of a treasure that can manipulate time, I'm looking forward to our cooperation even more."
After seeing Gu Ran’s chest being pierced, the elders were overjoyed.
No matter if it is a martial arts master or a person with special abilities, the heart is one of their weaknesses, and they will not live long if their heart is destroyed.
No matter how strong Gu Ran is, they will still be the final winners.
