Chapter 472 - 472 True Identity!
472 True Identity!
“You’re able to step into the intermediate Saint stage at such a young age. Your talent in spirit arrays is also the most outstanding person I’ve seen in these years. Now, you’re also able to use the power of space so skillfully… You’ve given me quite a few surprises.”
Zhan Wushuang clicked his tongue in wonder. He was surprised and squinted his eyes as he looked straight at Gu Xi and continued, “If I’m not wrong, a genius like you, who can be said to be one that only appears once every 10,000 years… You’re definitely not a disciple of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, right?”
Hearing this, Gu Xi hesitated for a moment, then grinned and nodded. “Indeed, I’m not a disciple of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, and … My name isn’t Gu Lan.”
As soon as this was said, everyone present could not help but feel a little surprised. One by one, curious eyes fell on Gu Xi, waiting for him to continue.
“The name Gu Lan is just a fake name. I believe that everyone here has heard of my true identity. I have even come into contact with you before.”
Gu Xi slowly glanced at the people around him with an inexplicable smile on his face.
“We’ve met him before?”
The crowd could not help but begin to discuss these words, but most of them could not recall anything no matter how hard they racked their brains. On the contrary, a small number of people seemed to have thought of something, and their expressions gradually froze.
Zhan Wushuang was also lost in his thoughts. Very quickly, he suddenly recalled the young man who had risen to fame in the Eastern Continent a few years ago. He suddenly raised his head and said with an incredulous expression, “You are… Gu Xi?”
As Zhan Wushuang’s voice fell, the entire place fell into silence. Everyone’s eyes were locked on Gu Xi, as if they wanted to guess the real answer from his micro-expressions.
“Tsk, tsk. Zhan Clan Master is indeed old but still young at heart. You have a good memory.”
Gu Xi grinned and gave Zhan Wushuang a big thumbs-up.
“What? This guy is actually Gu Xi?”
“I heard that Gu Xi has already escaped to the Demon Region?! And I’ve seen Gu Xi before, his appearance is very different from Gu Lan’s. It shouldn’t be him!”
In an instant, the crowd burst into an intense uproar.
Tong Shan and Tang Qilin looked at each other. They did not even try to hide the surprise in their eyes. Tong Shan shook his head with a bitter smile .”Gu Lan… Gu Xi… I should have thought of this long ago.”
“I didn’t expect this guy to be Gu Xi, the one who turned the entire Eastern continent upside down at that time. No wonder… I was just wondering how two young people with such great attainments in spirit arrays appeared in the Eastern Continent in the past few years…”
Tang Conglin smiled wryly, his voice full of disbelief.
“You are a spy from the Demon Region! You turned the entire Eastern continent upside down, and now you dare to show up at a human race’s grand event again!”
Just as most of the people were still immersed in shock, a stern voice suddenly rang out from the crowd. Everyone’s eyes followed the direction of the voice, only to see an old man glaring at them.
He was the leader of the Ancient Sect’s team for this competition.
“That’s right, the Demon Region’s spies should be killed by everyone!”
“He was lucky enough to escape back then. Now that this brat has exposed his identity, we must not let him slip back to the Demon Region!”
“That’s right. Who knows if he’s back here with some ulterior motive?!”
With one person taking the lead, a large number of people immediately stood out from the crowd, and most of these people were the group that had joined forces to deal with Gu Xi back then.
On the other hand, Gu Xi was still calm when everyone’s attitude suddenly changed, as if he had already expected this.
“Gu Xi… Tsk tsk… The Demon Region’s spy… You have given me another reason to kill you.”
As Zhan Wushuang gradually recovered from his shock, a large amount of spiritual energy surged out of his body. It was obvious that he had the intention to kill again.
Regardless of whether it was Gu Lan or Gu Xi, the person in front of them must die!
“If I dare reveal my true identity in front of so many people, do you really think you still have the ability to kill me?” Gu Xi smiled as he glanced at the group of people who stood up.
Finally, Gu Xi’s line of sight landed on Zhan Wushuang, who was not far away from him. Gu Xi looked very calm and relaxed.
“What an arrogant tone, but then again, you are mad enough to be so arrogant,” Zhan Wushuang said in a deep voice. The vast spiritual energy in his body burst out and soared into the sky. A wave that made people tremble spread out in all directions. His expression gradually turned cold. “However, there will always be a price to pay for being arrogant.”
As his voice fell, a huge Fist Shadow gradually solidified in the sky. This was the source of the terrifying fluctuation between heaven and earth.
“It’s the Valiant Heavenly Divine Fist. It looks like he’s going to use his real strength this time.”
Tong Shan immediately recognized the famous spirit skill of the Zhan Clan. At the same time, his heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
If it was said that Gu Xi had a slight chance of survival before, now that Zhan Wushuang had used the Valiant Heavenly Divine Fist, Gu Xi’s chances of survival were practically zero.
After knowing Gu Xi’s true identity, Zhan Wushuang did not hold back at all.
Looking at the huge Fist Shadow that had already condensed in the sky, Gu Xi could not help but click his tongue in wonder. He clapped his hands and praised, “As expected of the Zhan Clan Master. It’s the same spirit skill that Zhan Hong used, but the power level is completely different.”
When he heard Gu Xi mention the dead Zhan Hong, Zhan Wushuang’s killing intent towards him increased even more. However, he was indeed a wily old fox, and he quickly controlled his emotions and was not distracted by Gu Xi’s words.
It had to be known that the most taboo thing for a cultivator to do while controlling a powerful spirit skill was to be distracted. If there was a slight mistake in the operation of spiritual energy, the consequences would be extremely painful.
“You should be glad that you are able to die under the secret art of the Zhan Clan…” Zhan Wushuang took a deep breath and did not choose to continue arguing with Gu Xi.
Gu Xi pouted and turned to look at the Fist Shadow above. Feeling the terrifying fluctuation coming at him, his face gradually became serious.
One Fist Shadow… Two… Three… When the seventh Fist Shadow appeared, the wind raged between the heavens and the earth, and the spiritual energy was stirred up like a storm. The terrifying fluctuation was suffocating, but it was not over yet. When the outline of the eighth fist shadow appeared, the fluctuation was enough to make people feel fear, and the power suddenly reached its peak.
“This is a little difficult to handle!”
Gu Xi’s pupils reflected the eight Fist Shadows that covered the entire sky like dark clouds, and his face became extremely serious.
Although he had also used the eight Valiant Heavenly Divine Palms, there was still a significant gap between his cultivation realm and Zhan Wushuang’s. Therefore, the waves of the eight Valiant Heavenly Divine Fists that Zhan Wushuang had used could be said to be on a completely different level.
Most likely, when these eight Fist Shadows landed, more than half of this city would be destroyed!
“Zhan Clan Master, are you going to ignore the lives of the people in the city?!” Seeing this, Tong Shan immediately shouted out.
Now that Gu Xi had revealed his true identity, he could not bear the pressure and stand on Gu Xi’s side. He could only use this method to stop Zhan Wushuang from making a move.
