Chapter 459 - 459 Three Tails
459 Three Tails
Whoosh-
In the horizon, a stream of light flashed past at an extremely fast speed, like a meteor streaking across the sky, leaving behind a long trace that would not stop for a long time.
Below them was the bustling Lanjiang city. If it was any other time, such a phenomenon would definitely cause the pedestrians to stop and exclaim in surprise. However, now that the sect competition was in progress, the commoners in the city were already used to it.
Whoosh-
Not long after the first streak of light, three more red streaks of light appeared in the sky, chasing after the first streak of light with even greater speed.
The scenery on both sides quickly passed by. Gu Xi turned his head from time to time and could vaguely see three flashing red lights in the distance.
That’s right, the first ray of light was Gu Xi who had just escaped from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, and the third red light far behind her was the mysterious man and the other two.
As time slowly passed, the distance between the two sides gradually shortened. If this situation continued, it would not be long before they caught up to Gu Xi.
“You’re really a stubborn dog, I can’t get rid of you.”
Gu Xi’s vast divine sense spread out, and he could clearly feel the distance between him and the three people behind him shortening.
Just now, he had racked his brains to try and shake off the three people, but no matter what methods he used, the result was to no avail.
The description of a stubborn dog could not be more appropriate.
“When a dog is anxious, it will jump over the wall. Even a rabbit will bite when it is anxious. Since you’re so persistent, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Gu Xi sneered, turned around, and quickly flew out of Lanjiang city.
Now that Little Nine was in danger, he naturally needed to rush over as soon as possible. However, the three people behind him were hot on his heels, and he could not just turn a blind eye to them and only focus on his journey.
If he wanted to travel safely, he naturally had to shake off the three tails behind him. If he could not do so, he could only chop them off forcefully!
Behind Gu Xi, the leading man looked at Gu Xi’s figure, who had already left Lanjiang city. He paused for a moment and immediately chased after him at a faster speed. The two red lights behind him did not show any weakness and followed closely behind.
In just a few minutes, Gu Xi’s figure had already stopped in a wide open space in the dense forest some distance away from Lanjiang city.
He placed his hands behind his back, and the sea of spiritual energy in his Dantian was already raging. His entire body was as tense as a bow that had been strung, and he was ready to take action at any time.
Soon, three red lights appeared in the distant sky. After a few breaths, the three red lights fell in front of him one by one, and three figures wrapped in gray robes appeared.
“You’ve really found a good place to bury yourself.” The mysterious man sneered as he scanned his surroundings.
There was still some distance between this place and Lanjiang city. As long as the three of them killed Gu Xi with thunderous means, they would not cause too much of a commotion and would definitely not alert anyone.
“It’s not certain who’s going to be buried.” Gu Xi grinned and carefully sized up the three people in front of him.
He thought for a moment and immediately continued, “It seems like you are going to take revenge for that previous guy. Unfortunately, that kid escaped last time.”
Hearing this, the mysterious man was slightly stunned. He could not help but feel a little surprised. However, since Gu Xi had exposed his identity, he no longer hid it. The three of them took off their gray robes, revealing the blood-red robe.
Unlike before, the three of them did not hide their appearances this time.
The three members of the Blood Spirit Society did not look much different from the others. The only difference was that their faces were slightly paler than ordinary people’s. From time to time, there would be a faint red light flashing in their pupils.
As the three of them revealed their true identities without any hesitation, an extremely obvious smell of blood filled the air, causing Gu Xi to frown.
“You’re very smart, but it’s all over now.”
The man in the lead licked his lips and the red light in his eyes gradually brightened. “If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for knowing something you shouldn’t have known. Back then, when you exposed our identity in front of Third Brother, you should have already thought of the consequences.”
“Since I can’t escape death today, I’d like to know why you’ve infiltrated the human race before I die. Or rather, what is your plan?” Gu Xi spoke with a face full of despair, as if he was really unable to escape death today.
However, to his disappointment, even though he had already put on such a posture, the man in front of him still kept his mouth shut and even had a look of disdain on his face.
“I’ll tell you everything when you’re no longer breathing.” The man in the lead grinned and did not fall into Gu Xi’s trap.
Although he was determined to kill Gu Xi at this time, he did not arrogantly speak in the face of such a secret.
He was well aware that he knew very little about Gu Xi. If he were to reveal the truth, he could not guarantee that Gu Xi would not have other means of escape. Once their plan was exposed, their plan to hide in the Eastern Continent would be completely ruined!
“You’re quite tight-lipped, it looks like I have to use some tricks to get you to talk.”
Seeing that the man was tight-lipped, Gu Xi put away his desperate look and his eyes gradually became serious. A heavy pressure slowly surged out of his body, and his clothes fluttered without any wind.
Although this was not his first time facing demons from the outer realm, he did not dare to guarantee that he would win against three of them at the same time.
If he failed, he would have to pay with his life!
Moreover, Little Nine was in danger now. He was more concerned about Little Nine’s safety than finding out the plan of the outer realm to infiltrate the Eastern Continent.
The only thing he could do now was to get rid of these three tails as soon as possible.
“Your strength is not bad, but facing the three of us, I advise you to give up those nonsensical thoughts and surrender obediently. Maybe we will spare your life.”
Looking at Gu Xi, who was ready to make a move, the man spoke indifferently.
If they could make Gu Xi work for them, it would be of great benefit to their plans in the Eastern Continent. After all, Gu Xi was in the limelight now.
