"Come out, you coward! If you have guts, don’t hide!"
Qingmu replied.
"Have the guts for a duel!"
Gu Sheng’s voice echoed again.
Qingmu hovered in mid-air, pondering to himself, then nodded and said, "Fine, a duel it is! I swear I’ll take you down!"
After speaking, Qingmu glanced at his Qingxia Sect followers.
But what Qingmu didn’t know was that Gu Sheng saw all this in the Void.
Yet dragging it out like this was pointless; time was limited in the Void, so better to turn the tables.
Thinking this, Gu Sheng suddenly emerged from the Void.
"Whoa!"
Seeing Gu Sheng abruptly appear from thin air indeed startled Qingmu.
"Why are you hiding? Come on!"
Qingmu braved up, pointing his curved blade at Gu Sheng, shouting.
Gu Sheng said nothing more, a chill flashing in his eyes.
Taking advantage of the Qingxia Sect members not yet reacting, he charged directly at Qingmu.
At this moment, Gu Sheng’s speed reached its pinnacle!
Like an unexpected lightning bolt, difficult to catch.
Qingmu couldn’t dodge and instinctively blocked with his curved blade.
"Clang!"
A piercing sound echoed again.
Gu Sheng summoned Mystic Yellow Power, his force unbelievably strong, seeming to distort the air around.
In an instant, dust flew and stones scattered, wind and clouds surged, the scene was spectacular and heart-stirring.
"Boom!"
With a loud crash, Qingmu’s curved blade was knocked to the ground by Gu Sheng’s attack.
Qingmu looked at his palm, which had split open, blood flowing down his hand.
Meanwhile, Gu Sheng did not give Qingmu a chance to catch his breath.
He gripped the Fire Spirit Dagger like a fiery snake, stabbing directly at Qingmu’s chest.
"No!"
Qingmu shouted in despair, his eyes full of reluctance.
The other Qingxia Sect cultivators beside him wanted to rush forward to help.
But it was all too late...
The Fire Spirit Dagger pierced Qingmu’s chest, bringing forth a spray of blood.
"Pu!"
Qingmu’s body jerked violently, spitting out blood, then fell straight to the ground.
"Boom!"
Qingmu’s body hit the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
The other Qingxia Sect members saw this and retreated in fear.
Their eyes were filled with terror; they hadn’t expected the young man’s power to be so formidable.
They knew that in a solo fight, none of them were a match for Gu Sheng; even in practice, they might not be able to defeat him.
Gu Sheng looked at them coldly, and said chillingly, "Go back and tell the Qingxia Sect not to provoke me again, or Qingmu will be your fate."
Those Qingxia Sect members didn’t dare say more; they picked up Qingmu’s corpse and fled like frightened dogs.
Gu Sheng returned to the ground, with traces of blood on him, his eyes still murderous.
"This kid has offended the Qingxia Sect; there’ll be consequences."
"Who is he? So powerful, never seen him before."
"As the Yangtze River pushes forward with new waves, I see this child has the potential to become the new leader of the Northern Territory!"
Gu Sheng’s figure gradually faded away on the streets of Sun City, leaving a trail of gossip.
The residents’ eyes were full of awe, quietly discussing everything that had happened.
At the same time, Gu Sheng’s name spread amongst them.
Soon, Gu Sheng returned to his room at the inn.
Upon entering, what he saw surprised him.
Qing Shan stood guard beside Shi Lou and Er Gou, vigilantly watching the surroundings, not letting anyone approach.
"Big brother!"
Qing Shan greeted Gu Sheng eagerly upon seeing him.
Gu Sheng heard the title and nodded slightly.
He hadn’t expected Qing Shan to stand by him without taking advantage of the situation, proving to be quite loyal.
"Qing Shan, thank you."
Gu Sheng’s voice carried a hint of appreciation.
Qing Shan shook his head, his gaze firm, saying, "I know Qingmu was using public vengeance for personal revenge, so naturally I stand by you."
Gu Sheng nodded, pleased with Qing Shan’s loyalty.
In this world, loyalty is a rare trait.
"Big brother, you should leave here quickly."
Qing Shan advised, "Once I return, I’ll try to stop Qingxia Sect from retaliating."
Gu Sheng’s eyes flashed coldly, saying lightly, "I’m not afraid of them; if they want revenge, they can come directly."
