After a moment of hesitation, the Southern Qiang Ancestor believed it. The main reason was that Guo Shier had run away with his people. An expert with the strength of a Great Ancestor was running away in a panic. This in itself explained the problem.
Once he believed Guo Shier's warning, the Southern Qiang Ancestor immediately arranged for a retreat and sent out many messages. The Scarlet Gold Continent had a large army of the Gu Nan Family and many professionals from the Southern Qiang Ancestor's branch families. The first thing they did was arrange for the retreat of the Saint Masters and Great Saint Masters. They were ordered to open their gates and leave the continent.
As for the middle and low level professionals, they were arranged for large teleportation formations to leave. All the altar level experts had to leave. The Southern Qiang Ancestor would not be able to bear the loss of even one person.
Large amounts of resources were abandoned and people quickly evacuated.
At this time, the Nanqiang forefather received a message glyph. His expression changed as soon as he read it. A camp a thousand miles away from the main camp had been completely destroyed. Only a few hundred people had escaped. The rest were all dead, including a few altar level experts.
Frightened, the Southern Qiang Ancestor started to evacuate his disciples. More information came. The Gu Nan Family and the Gu Jin Family had fought on the White Dew Plains. Both sides had sent nearly a million soldiers each, but most of them were killed. Only a few thousand escaped. They had only managed to escape because the red-robed man had disdained to kill them.
The two ancient families immediately stopped fighting and began a large-scale retreat. There was no way to resist such a monstrous enemy.
The Southern Qiang Ancestor sighed. Under Nan Yong's persuasion, he left the continent with his subordinates. He was also someone who could not die. If he died, his branch family would suffer even more than the loss of an entire continent.
… …
Guo Shier's group did not linger in the Wind and Rain Secret Realm. Instead, they used the teleportation formation to return to the Great Hidden Castle.
The Gu Nan Family had a special living area in the castle. Guo Shier took out his identity token and a disciple immediately came to guide him to a luxurious residence.
After the disciple left, Guo Shier sat down without a care for his image. He sighed and said, "I wonder how many people will die this time! We didn't even see anyone and ran for our lives … What a terrifying person. "
A Handsome Old Man popped his head out and said, "If you really saw that person, you would be dead. Red Sacrifice … someone dares to use such a method."
Guo Shier asked, "What is Red Sacrifice?"
The handsome old man said, "The Red Sacrifice is not a thing, but a method. It can plunder souls on a large scale and strengthen one's soul after being refined."
Guo Shier was shocked. "His soul is already so strong … it can destroy our souls and he wants to strengthen it? Killing millions of professionals … this person is too evil. "
The handsome old man said with a wry smile, "He has the strength to plunder souls. Unless there's someone on the same level as him, they can only stop him. Otherwise, they can only run.
Guo Shi 'er shuddered and said, "How many people are we going to kill?
"The people of one continent … shouldn't be enough for him to kill," A Handsome Old Man said. "I think he will go to other continents to refine souls. Hmm, maybe he will stop when he thinks he has enough."
Nan You, Falconer, and Luo Zhan couldn't help but shiver. Ever since Falconer became a professional, he had experienced countless killings. He didn't even blink when it came to killing people, but he was also frightened by that person. He had never heard of such a crazy thing as killing people of an entire continent.
Nan You was almost forcibly dragged out of the Red Gold Continent. In fact, he was very grateful to Guo Shier and A Handsome Old Man. Being able to stay away from danger and stay alive was more important than anything else. He said, "I don't know if the Old Ancestor of Nanqiang and the others have retreated. Old Ancestor, I will go and find out …"
Guo Shi 'er also wanted to know the news over there, so he said, "You go ahead. I guess many people will escape to the Great Hidden Castle."
Nan You nodded and turned to leave.
Guo Shier turned his head and asked, "Uncle Luo, did you succeed in breaking through?"
Luo Zhan sighed and said, "Yes, but I didn't have time to consolidate it. After my soul grew … I can't control it. I don't have any fighting power for now."
Guo Shier said, "Uncle Falconer, you are in charge of guarding. Uncle Luo, you can consolidate your soul. I will help."
Luo Zhan was delighted. He urgently needed Guo Shier's soul. Guo Shier began to chant silently. Luo Zhan's face immediately revealed a comfortable expression. Because of the advancement and the soul beads he had absorbed, his soul was somewhat impure. He urgently needed Guo Shi 'er's soul fluctuations to cleanse his soul.
After a while, Luo Zhan was immersed in it, his soul rippling with the waves.
Falconer sat at the door. Although he was a little far away, he could still feel the waves. He couldn't help but immerse himself in it. This kind of benefit could only be enjoyed by Guo Shier. It was extremely beneficial to the soul.
After a few hours, Guo Shier stopped chanting. Luo Zhan sat quietly for a while before opening his eyes. He sighed and said, "It's like soaking in warm water. The waves are rippling … It's intoxicating. It's so comfortable."
Falconer said at the door, "This isn't like what you would say. You should say … it's so f * cking good!"
Luo Zhan grinned and said, "You barbaric guy. I'm a refined person."
Falconer said disdainfully, "Bullsh * t!"
Guo Shier stood up and asked, "How is it?"
Luo Zhan smiled and said, "It's very good. A few more times and it'll be over. Hehe, I heard that other professions need a few years to stabilize their soul after advancing to the Illusory Altar. I'm very satisfied with this speed."
Guo Shier asked, "When will you be able to completely control the altar?"
Luo Zhan said, "It won't be long. After the soul is stabilized, hmm, it'll take about ten days." His tone was still uncertain. After all, this was his first time advancing to the Illusory Altar. There were many things he didn't understand.
Guo Shier said, "I'm a little nervous. It's not a big problem. Anyway, when we move, you'll be sitting on my Illusory Altar."
Falconer asked, "You plan to leave this place?"
Guo Shier nodded and said, "Yes, I plan to go to Yamata Yamata Heaven and see if I can find the people of the four ancient clans. If I can find them, we'll go back and find the Gu Xilong clan and use their teleportation formation to return! This place is getting more and more dangerous. Who knows if that powerful guy will rush into Yamata Heaven? It'll be too hasty to leave at that time. "
A Handsome Old Man popped his head out and said, "The further we stay away from that guy, the better!" Then he retracted his head.
Falconer and Luo Zhan both had the same thought: Someone who could make A Handsome Old Man so scared must be very powerful. Falconer said, "Alright, let's leave this place."
Luo Zhan asked, "Nan You, what about you? Take him with you? "
Nan You came in from outside and said with a depressed face, "That guy … went to another continent, and he still went on a killing spree. This time … our Gu Nan clan lost countless disciples."
Guo Shier asked, "Has the Old Ancestor of Nanqiang retreated?"
Nan You nodded and said, "The main ones have all retreated. Those who couldn't leave in time … all died. That guy is simply a madman."
Falconer asked, "Which continent did he go to? Is it your clan's continent? "
Nan You said, "The only good news is that he went to the Gu Jin clan's continent. Currently, a few of the ancient clans are mobilizing their altar level experts to surround and kill him, or drive him away. But that guy is too powerful …"
A Handsome Old Man popped his head out and said, "Surround and kill him? Drive him away? Haha, are you joking? "
Nan You was unconvinced and said, "A few ancient clans have mobilized several hundred altar level experts … Can't they surround and kill that guy?"
A Handsome Old Man laughed and said, "That guy must be ecstatic. Haha, it's a great supplement for the soul. Hmph, we won't keep him company."
It was true that Nan You came to invite Guo Shier to join them, but after hearing A Handsome Old Man's words, he knew that Guo Shier wouldn't participate. He couldn't help but wonder, "Is that guy really that powerful?"
A Handsome Old Man said, "An expert surpassing the ninth level of the altar level. You can judge for yourself what kind of existence he is. If we go, without any mishaps … we'll be dead for sure. Forget about attacking, we won't even be able to escape."
Nan You's expression turned ugly. After a while, he said, "Then what should we do?" Guo Shier could ignore the clan's orders. After all, he was a guest ancestor with great authority and freedom. However, he was the First Elder of the Gu Nan Clan and an illusionary altar level expert. If the clan gave the order, he would have to go even if he didn't want to. After listening to A Handsome Old Man's words, going there would be no chance for him to escape. His mind was in a mess.
Guo Shier said, "There are two ways. One is for you to go back to the clan and participate in the hunting mission. Hmm, according to my estimation, you won't be able to survive. The second way …"
Nan You's eyes lit up. He looked at Guo Shier with expectation.
Guo Shier said, "I remember … you're my follower." What he meant was, 'You should come with me.' He was very satisfied with the result of being able to lure away an illusionary altar level expert.
Nan You had no choice but to agree. He hesitated for a while and then said, "I … Alright, I'll go with you." Facing the choice of life and death, he would choose to live. He didn't want to risk his life. The most important thing was that even if he risked his life, he would die in vain. No one would be willing to do such a thing.
Guo Shier nodded and said, "Very well, Nan You. Since you've decided to follow us, this trip will be much smoother. Hehe, you know Hakata Mahayana better than us. Hmm, this time we'll go very far … We might be far away from here. You should be prepared."
Since he had decided to follow Guo Shier, Nan You wanted to go as far as possible. He nodded and said, "As a follower, I only need to follow. As for how to go, hehe, that's the Ancestor's business."
Guo Shier waved his hand and said, "In the Gu Nan Clan, you can call me the Ancestor. But outside, you can call me Shier, the same as Uncle Falconer and Uncle Luo."
Nan You said, "Alright, Shier, are we going now?"
A Handsome Old Man popped his head out and said, "Yes, it's not safe here either." He then explained, "With that person's strength, he doesn't need any transportation talismans to reach here. After reaching the ninth layer, he can go to any continent or secret realm. "
A disciple of the Gu Nan Clan outside announced, "Ancestor, Grand Elders, Nanqiang Ancestor has arrived."
