Chapter 1438: Chapter 742: How Dare You

"If this continues, he’ll die!"

Gu Sheng glanced at her, his gaze indifferent.

"If not for the employer’s sake, I’d even consider leaving him behind."

On the battlefield, Xie He’s eyes turned red, he suddenly bit his tongue, spitting out a mouthful of Essence Blood.

"Blood Burst Technique!"

Gu Sheng frowned.

"A Secret Technique that burns life span? Foolish."

Just as Xie He’s blood surged, ready to fight to the death, an almost imperceptible mental wave flickered across Gu Sheng’s brow.

The Spirit Cat Demon Beast that was about to pounce suddenly froze, blood spewing from its eyes and ears.

"Sky-breaking Sword Technique!"

A silver light flashed, and the Spirit Cat Demon Beast didn’t even have time to scream before it was slashed mid-air into two pieces, its organs and blood scattered everywhere.

Xie He stood there in a daze, the backlash from the Blood Burst Technique causing blood to trickle from the corner of his mouth.

He stared blankly at Gu Sheng’s graceful motion as he sheathed his sword, then looked down at the demon beast corpse split in half on the ground.

"You..."

Xie He’s voice was hoarse.

Gu Sheng didn’t even glance at him, turning instead to Xie Qingxuan.

"Clean up, it’s getting dark soon."

Xie Qingxuan quickly ran to Xie He’s side, taking out medicinal powder from her bosom to stop his bleeding. Xie He, however, pushed her away and staggered over to Gu Sheng.

"Why did you save me?"

Xie He asked through gritted teeth, feeling more humiliated by being saved by someone he had always disliked than he did by his injuries.

Gu Sheng only then looked at him directly, his eyes indifferent.

"I saved you because you are still useful."

Xie He’s fists clenched tightly, but he only managed to squeeze out two words through his teeth.

"...Thank you."

Xie Qingxuan said softly to Gu Sheng.

"Qin, thank you. I know you actually..."

"Don’t misunderstand."

Gu Sheng interrupted her.

"I just don’t want to stay up guarding a severely injured burden at night."

He pointed at Xie He’s wounds.

"With his cultivation, these injuries won’t be fatal. But the blood scent will attract more demon beasts."

Xie He scoffed.

"What, now you resent me for holding you back?"

Gu Sheng suddenly showed a smile that made Xie He’s skin crawl.

"Quite the opposite. I have a plan that needs your cooperation."

"What plan?"

Xie Qingxuan asked curiously.

"Have him run a few laps and lure all nearby demon beasts over."

Gu Sheng pointed to the depths of the dense forest.

"I’ll kill them from behind. Using the blood scent to disperse other demon beasts is more effective than passive defense."

Xie He’s eyes widened.

"You want to use me as bait?"

"You can also choose to refuse."

Gu Sheng shrugged indifferently.

"However, at night demon beasts are active; if we don’t clear a safe area before setting up camp, no one will be able to sleep well."

Xie Qingxuan looked at Xie He with concern.
