“Gu Xi, don’t think that just because you have some power, you can talk nonsense!”
Figures walked out from the crowd and shouted at the man in green.
From their point of view, Gu Xi just wanted to use this opportunity to show off in front of these women from the Liuli Sect.
As for the consequences of showing off his might, there was naturally only one word — death!
“Won’t you all know if I’m spouting nonsense?” In the face of everyone’s berating, Gu Xi only smiled faintly.
No matter where, fists were the absolute truth!
Even if everyone joined hands, Gu Xi was not the slightest bit afraid.
Not only was it because the current him had already stepped into the Saint stage, but he also had Little Jin in his hands who could appear and fight.
Although Little Jin was only at the Quasi-saint stage, with the addition of the divine beast bloodline, his fighting strength was not inferior to a true Saint!
“Senior… sister, what should we do?”
Not far behind, Su Lian looked at Qing Xue and asked with some difficulty.
After all, they were still in a cooperative relationship with Gu Xi. If they let Gu Xi face it alone, it would be unjustifiable.
At this moment, Qing Xue frowned and did not give an answer.
At present, their Liuli Sect had one treasure, while Gu Xi had two. And everyone present only wanted two treasures.
In other words, as long as the Liuli Sect did not get involved, no one would dare to have designs on them.
After all, compared to the Medicine King Valley behind Gu Xi, everyone was more unwilling to provoke the Liuli Sect. Even though this sect was made up of women, no one dared to underestimate it.
After careful consideration, Qing Xue said, “Let’s wait and see.”
Although they were cooperating with Gu Xi Now, if they helped Gu Xi now, they would undoubtedly stand on the opposite side of everyone. Qing Xue did not want to put them in such a dangerous situation.
However, they were still partners after all. All she could do was to try her best to ensure that Gu Xi would not die here. As for whether the treasures in Gu Xi’s hands would be left or not, it would be up to Gu Xi himself.
Su Lian’s red lips parted slightly. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she was speechless.
At the same time, the atmosphere on Gu Xi’s side had already sunk into a freezing point.
Everyone was ready to attack at any time. Under the temptation of the two treasures, the rationality in their hearts greatly declined.
“Look… What is that?”
Seeing that both sides were about to erupt into battle, one of them pointed at a certain place in the square.
“What? What? Are you afraid?”
One of the men frowned impatiently and looked in the direction that the man pointed. Instantly, the man’s eyes widened and the spiritual power in his body became chaotic.
“There… there shouldn’t have been such a thing just now, right?”
The man unconsciously swallowed his saliva and his voice trembled.
Their words attracted everyone’s attention. Then, one by one, they looked at a certain place in the square.
In the next moment, a trace of fear flashed in everyone’s eyes.
A corpse had appeared there at some point in time!
The corpse sat cross-legged on the ground, not moving in the slightest.
Even so, it still made everyone feel a chill run down their spines.
So many cultivators had gathered together, but they actually had not discovered when this corpse had appeared here!
What made people feel puzzled was that after everyone discovered this corpse, they had observed it for a long time, but there was not the slightest movement. It was as if it had been there from the beginning to the end.
After an unknown period of time, someone finally mustered up the courage to come in front of the corpse. After carefully sizing up this corpse that did not have any special features, he smiled disdainfully. He turned around and shouted at everyone, “This is just a normal corpse. Everyone, there is no need to worry.”
Even so, there was not the slightest bit of relief on everyone’s faces. Instead, the more they loved it, the more solemn it was. Their expressions were filled with shock.
“What happened to all of you?”
When he saw the sudden change in everyone’s expressions, that person swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He had a faint bad premonition in his heart.
He kept feeling that there was a trace of coldness on his back.
“Behind you…” someone reminded him.
The corner of that person’s mouth twitched, but he did not show any signs of turning around to look.
Even a fool would know that there was a problem behind him.
“I shouldn’t look. I should go, I should go… I should go!” the man muttered.
Then, he stomped his feet on the ground, and the spiritual power in his body burst out without holding back. His whole body shot toward where everyone was like an arrow leaving a bow.
As long as he was fast enough, who cares about demons and monsters?!
The man’s heart had just been filled with joy, but the next moment, he was stunned on the spot.
He only felt a sharp pain on his back, and then the pain transferred from his back to his chest. It was not a transfer, but more like… penetration?
Looking down, the man’s face instantly turned extremely pale.
On his chest, he saw a dry and straight hand bone breaking through his body.
Fresh blood gushed out like spring water.
The smell of blood started to spread in the air.
“No…” The man opened his mouth with great effort, but he did not have the strength to say the rest of his words.
After struggling for a moment, the man’s limbs drooped weakly.
Obviously, he would not be able to lift them up in the future.
In the next moment, his body was thrown to the side by the skeleton as if it was a piece of trash.
“What the hell is going on?!”
“Everyone, please kill him together!”
Seeing all of this, everyone could not help but start to panic. However, Li Du quickly stood up and tried to unite everyone to attack the skeleton again.
“System, check.”
On the other side, Gu Xi immediately ordered the System to start working.
[Checking!]
[ Ding! A 10,000-year-old skeleton has been detected. Based on the aura connection between the Secret Realm and the skeleton, the preliminary conclusion is that this skeleton is the corpse of the owner of the Secret Realm!]
Soon, the System came to a preliminary conclusion.
Hearing this, Gu Xi was not very surprised.
He had already made this guess in his heart the moment the skeleton appeared.
“How is his strength?”
Gu Xi asked again.
[Great Saint stage]
These two short words made Gu Xi suck in a breath of cold air.
What kind of f*cking monster is this?!
To be able to possess the strength of a Great Saint even after tens of thousands of years, one could only imagine how powerful the owner of this Secret Realm was when he was alive.
“Looks like I’ll have to find an opportunity to escape first.”
Gu Xi thought to himself as he quietly retreated a little.
He did not want to be buried in this damned place for nothing.
If the others made a move, it would also buy him enough time to escape.
