Primordial Qi

Chapter 157 Serious Injury

The big hand fell, and a figure immediately appeared in front of Gu Chenyu. The horrific attack made Gu Chenyu deaf. He only saw a flash of white light, and his vision and hearing disappeared briefly. The aftermath alone made him fly hundreds of meters away.

A cultivator in the kingly realm could kill a large number of venerables in seconds with a single strike. If that figure had not blocked him, Gu Chenyu would have been turned into dust by now.

"puff."

Gu Chenyu vomited blood. He hadn't felt such fear of facing death for a long time. He struggled to get up and tried to see clearly ahead, but there was only darkness in front of him.

Gu Qingxue, in white clothes as white as snow, held the Qingming Sword and resisted the attack. She was not feeling well either, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth after coughing twice. When she saw Gu Chenyu for the first time, she rushed over with the law of time, forcibly activating the Qingming Sword and consuming a lot of soul power. If it weren't for the Tongtian Mirror protecting her body, she would have died at this moment.

"Huh? Where did this kid come from?" Lu Gao raised his eyebrows in confusion. A celestial being actually blocked his attack.

The people of Qingming Sect felt their scalps tingling. This casual attack was so terrifying. Xiao Tian and Lin Xiu stepped forward immediately. Lin Yuanya sighed and came to Lu Gao to stop him.

"Brother Lu, this person is a disciple of my sect. Although I don't know why he is here, I believe he must have his own difficulties. Please give me some face and listen to his reasons."

Lin Yuanya naturally had some impression of Gu Chenyu. After all, he was a disciple of the Qingming Sect. As the leader of a sect, he naturally had to show some favor.

"Seeing that he was wearing the royal palace uniform, I thought he was a disciple of my palace. If he was afraid of death and wanted to turn against his own side in the middle of a battle, then I would have killed him."

Lu Gao disagreed. He was a cultivator at the king level, and killing a cultivator at the venerable level was just a matter of moving his fingers. If a disciple of the royal palace dared to surrender to the enemy, he would kill him. He would not care at all.

"Let's listen to my disciple's reasons." Lin Yuanya said.

Xiao Tian and Lin Xiu helped Gu Chenyu up. They also realized that Gu Chenyu was seriously injured, and their eyes were filled with anger.

Lin Xiu took a step forward suddenly, pointed his index finger at Lu Gao and asked loudly: "You bastard, can a monk in the King Realm kill people at will?"

Lu Gao frowned. He hadn't been scolded at in many years. He still had a smile on his face, but secretly he was preparing to take action.

Lin Yuanya hurriedly grabbed Lu Gao. This person was his descendant, and he actually dared to point at the nose of a monk in the kingly realm and curse him. He was too bold. He must teach him a lesson when he returned.

"Old Lu, this is my great-great-grandson, the most promising one among my descendants, so don't take it to heart."

Upon hearing that he was the descendant of an old friend, Lu Gao calmed down. This young and naive guy was somewhat similar to Lin Yuanya when he was young.

Xiao Tian grabbed Lin Xiu and asked him to say less. These were cultivators at the king level. If he really angered them, he would be dead soon.

"Boy, if Brother Lin hadn't spoken up, you would have died today. You don't even take the king realm seriously. You are really too arrogant."

Lu Gao glanced at Lin Xiu, and the pressure he released slightly made Lin Xiu half-kneel on the ground. He lectured him in the tone of an elder: "I am a king, and I don't even need a reason to kill a Venerable cultivator. This is the privilege of the strong. Do you understand?"

Lin Xiu struggled to get up, his eyes full of rage. Can a strong man kill people at will? What a joke, come out and fight me if you dare!

"Senior Lu, I respect you as a senior, and you are indeed a strong man, but what you said is wrong. A strong man should not kill people at will!" Xiao Tian said lightly.

Lin Xiu couldn't help but smile. It was interesting to have two young men coming here at once.

A powerful pressure descended, and Xiao Tian was forced to half-kneel. Gu Chenyu was even more miserable, being pinned to the ground and unable to move.

"Don't ask what the situation is. Hand over your soul and blood, and I will spare your life."

Lu Gao said to Gu Chenyu, as if expressing pity.

"Ahem, soul blood? So what if I don't hand it over?"

Gu Chenyu stood up, and the pressure was suppressed again, but he did not fall down, but stood upright.

"Senior, you accuse people without knowing the truth and even force them to hand over their souls and blood without even explaining. You may be very powerful, but you are a little arrogant."

Gu Chenyu's speech suddenly became tough, at the critical moment of life and death, he actually combined the method of changing the earth and the method of changing the sky into one, and created his own method of immortal transformation. The blood and essence in his body emitted an evil light, and he could transform into a dragon and fight at any time.

"Haha, youngster, you are the arrogant one."

Lu Gao was naturally unhappy about being belittled by three juniors in one day. He had never encountered such arrogant juniors in the thousands of years since he became a king. He had to teach them a lesson, so he increased the pressure.

Gu Qingxue adjusted his injuries, clasped his fists towards Lu Gao and said, "Please forgive me, Senior. I am a little arrogant, but I have good intentions. He is our sect's insider, and a lot of news comes from him. Senior almost killed a hero by mistake."

Lu Gao thought about it for a moment, and wanted to make things difficult for him, but was pulled away by Lin Yuanya. He knew that he would discipline his disciples, so why should he bother with a junior?

Seeing the two leave, Gu Qingxue hurried to check on Gu Chenyu's injuries. Fortunately, there was no serious problem.

"Brother, are you okay?"

Lin Xiu and Xiao Tian both looked worried. Gu Chenyu was a little miserable at the moment. As Gu Qingxue transferred spiritual power into him, Gu Chenyu recovered.

"This old man... I have less than a one in ten thousand chance of killing him. Big brother, do you want to fight?" Lin Xiu gritted his teeth. If he was not weak enough, Lu Gao would probably be beaten up.

The corner of Xiao Tian's mouth twitched. Lin Xiu was... too bold.

"Don't worry, it's okay. Although it was just a misunderstanding, I will get back at them sooner or later." Gu Chenyu coughed up blood and was carried back by the two men.

The storage bags on his body were scattered all over the floor, basically all of them were confiscated. Gu Chenyu felt like crying, as this was all hard-earned money, but fortunately he had kept a lot of it.

After returning to the Qingming Sect camp, Gu Qingxue vomited blood after sending Xiao Tian and Lin Xiu away. Gu Chenyu instantly exploded and his injuries healed in an instant. He immediately supported Gu Qingxue and transferred true energy into her body.

"Tongtian Mirror, come out quickly." Gu Chenyu called out.

"I'm coming."

Tongtian Jing came out reluctantly. He told Gu Qingxue that Gu Chenyu would be fine and she didn't need to risk her life. After Gu Chenyu's body was gone, the true dragon's blood would rebuild his body and turn him into a dragon. At that time, he could also serve as a mount for Gu Qingxue. Unexpectedly, Gu Qingxue subconsciously went over to block the knife. Sometimes he even doubted whether his fortune-telling method was outdated...

"Can you be of some use, kid? Just turn into a dragon and bite him to death."

The Tongtian Mirror scolded Gu Chenyu, and the light blue light shone into her body, healing her internal injuries.

"Don't bark yet, it's more important to stabilize your injuries."

……

Three days passed before Gu Qingxue's condition improved, but her soul tribulation was expected to come earlier.

After Lu Gao dealt with these things, he led his men to the depths of the secret realm. The other disciples were frightened and did not dare to explore for opportunities casually, so they established a base camp here, preparing to leave together after those strong men finished their exploration.

"Gu Chenyu, I'm in pain..."

Gu Qingxue woke up and said something in a low voice. Gu Chenyu felt so distressed that he held Gu Qingxue in his arms and coaxed her like a child.

After Gu Qingxue fell asleep, the anger in Gu Chenyu's eyes appeared. He was already filled with murderous intent. He had hurt Gu Qingxue and forced her soul tribulation to come early. His heart was pounding and his body could not help but tremble.

"Alas, she activated the Qingming Sword and briefly entered the monarch realm. The soul calamity may have already begun."

The Tongtian Mirror eliminated the cause and effect on her body and prevented her from being targeted by some powerful people. Gu Chenyu leaned close to his ear and asked what could heal Gu Qingxue's injuries.

"This is a realm issue, not a trauma. A casual blow from a king-level cultivator wouldn't have killed her. She took the entire blow, ultimately to protect you."

Gu Chenyu was silent for a while, and his eyes softened as he looked at Gu Qingxue sleeping in his arms...

A figure left here under the cover of night and headed deep into the secret realm.
