Chapter 1334 - 691: Save Me
He originally thought these two young people would be scared out of their wits at the sight of him, but unexpectedly, they remained motionless, without a trace of panic on their faces.
The chief disciple took a step forward hurriedly and said obsequiously.
"Ancestor, they are dumbfounded by your aura and know they can’t escape, so they surrendered without a fight."
Lishan Ancestor listened to the flattery, the corners of his mouth lifting to reveal several yellowed teeth.
He looked at Gu Sheng and Ling Xiao with the eyes of someone passing judgment, as if they were already fish on the chopping board.
"Go, kill them."
Lishan Ancestor waved his hand, his tone as relaxed as if he were asking someone to pour a cup of tea.
The chief disciple drew a long knife from his waist, the blade glinting with a strange green light, clearly poisoned.
He walked toward Gu Sheng and Ling Xiao with a sinister smile, eyes full of killing intent.
"It’s over, all over..."
From the crowd chained up, an old man closed his eyes in despair.
They had originally clung to a glimmer of hope in these two young sudden arrivals, since they dared to face Lishan Ancestor directly.
But now seeing the two "stunned" into stillness, hope was instantly shattered.
"Boo hoo... I don’t want to die..."
A young woman sobbed softly, her voice brimming with fear.
Lishan Ancestor was amused by these cries, deciding to brutally kill Gu Sheng and Ling Xiao before these people, letting them witness his power firsthand.
He extended his withered finger, with black Evil Qi swirling at the tip, slowly pointing toward Gu Sheng’s chest.
"Boy, I’ll rip out your heart to see what gives you the courage to stand before me."
Lishan Ancestor said with a sinister smile, his finger striking toward Gu Sheng like a sharp blade.
Light flickered in Gu Sheng’s eyes as he was about to act when suddenly—
"Boom!"
A terrifying aura descended from the sky, pressing down on everyone in the square.
Lishan Ancestor’s finger stopped abruptly three inches from Gu Sheng’s chest.
His face turned deathly pale instantly, blood seeping from his seven orifices.
"Puff!"
Lishan Ancestor spat out a mouthful of blood, staggering back several steps, eyes filled with shock.
The chief disciple fared even worse, collapsing to the ground directly, his poisonous sword clattering to the ground.
He cried out in terror.
"Who?! Who is it?!"
The evil cultivator disciples in the square fell like wheat being harvested.
The mortals in captivity felt the pressure too but strangely were unharmed.
Gu Sheng and Ling Xiao exchanged glances, seeing the understanding in each other’s eyes.
"Finally here."
Gu Sheng said softly, the corners of his mouth curling into a cold smile.
A figure descended from the sky, landing heavily in the square center, kicking up a circle of dust.
The newcomer was clad in blue, with stern features exuding righteous energy between his eyebrows.
Standing there, he was like an unsheathed sword, fully revealing its edge.
"Who... who are you?"
Lishan Ancestor asked tremblingly, feeling the other’s power greatly surpassed his, just the aura inflicted internal injuries.
The blue-clothed man swept him a cold glance, eyes full of disdain.
"Are you qualified to know my name?"
The chief disciple prostrate on the ground screamed in horror.
"Ancestor! He... he might be a genius disciple from the Three Great Sects!"
Lishan Ancestor’s face darkened at hearing this.
The Three Great Sects ruled as the mightiest righteous sects in this region, even a single disciple was beyond his provocation.
Moreover, the person before him was clearly of the core disciple level.
The blue-clothed man no longer paid attention to Lishan Ancestor and the others, turning instead to Gu Sheng, eyes filled with excitement, his body even trembling slightly.
"Gu Sheng, why haven’t you run?"
The blue-clothed man’s voice was cold, yet could not conceal the excitement within.
"Gu Sheng?"
Lishan Ancestor froze upon hearing the name, then seemed to recall something, his face turning ghastly pale.
"Gu Sheng... that Gu Sheng from the Holy Road?!"
His voice turned sharp with fear, the evil cultivator disciples in the square wore ghost-like expressions upon hearing the words "Holy Road Gu Sheng."
"Impossible... impossible..."
Lishan Ancestor mumbled, his legs weakening, barely able to stand.
Holy Road Gu Sheng, the most famous genius of the Tianlan Holy Land, once slaughtered all the way along the Holy Road, causing heavy casualties to the Six Great Holy Lands, even killing several Holy Sons and Holy Daughters.
His legends were widespread in the Cultivation World, with tales of his ruthlessness, his unfathomable nature, yet everyone agreed—he was a monster-level genius.
Lishan Ancestor never dreamed he would dare provoke such a terrifying being.
Recalling his boastful words about ripping out the other’s heart earlier, he suddenly felt ridiculously absurd.
"Gu Sheng! It is Gu Sheng!"
A core disciple of the Qinghe Holy Land suddenly shouted, pointing at Gu Sheng, his voice trembling with excitement.
The shout exploded like thunder, plunging the entire square into strange silence, followed by an uproar of discussions.
"What? The ruthless one who suppressed Upper Realm geniuses?"
"Impossible, he looks so young..."
"It’s undeniable! The Qinghe Holy Land’s Killing Order has his portrait!"
Gu Sheng stood expressionlessly, watching the boiling crowd around him.
He had long anticipated this moment, just didn’t expect to be recognized under such circumstances.
Several disciples from the Qinghe Holy Land pushed through the crowd, excitedly pointing at Gu Sheng to confirm with those around them.
"It’s him! Three years ago, he single-handedly fought Six Great Holy Land geniuses on the Holy Road, even our Holy Son was defeated by him!"
"I heard even that genius from the Upper Realm who descended was suppressed by him!"
