Five hundred kilometers of rubble!
Not long after Gu Hai's group left, the Shenji Battalion's flying ship, Long Wanqing, and Venerable Liu Nian left as well, leaving behind a group of shocked cultivators digesting what happened earlier.
In a corner:
Montes leaned against a large rock as Feng Ling helped Montes apply medicine.
As Montes watched Gu Hai leave, his expression turned sullen. "This Gu Hai is truly a demonic genius. The stronger he is, the stronger he becomes. He is like a ghost! If you continue to fight for the dragon vein, you will have a headache. Are you giving up? That's fine as well! "
Montes turned his head and looked in the direction the Shenji Battalion's flying ship left.
"The Peony Sect? I should have thought of that long ago. Unfortunately, the Peony Sect has been closed to visitors. Humph! You can't close your sect this time, right? "Montes said coldly.
"Hus … Husband, I've already bandaged your wounds!" Feng Ling said in a trembling voice as she bit her lip.
"What's wrong? Are you afraid of me? "Montes looked at Feng Ling with raised eyebrows.
"No … no!" Feng Ling showed some fear in her eyes.
After sighing slightly, Montes pulled Feng Ling over and said, "Alright, everything will pass. After I obtain the dragon vein and establish a nation, you will be my empress. I will treat you well!"
Feng Ling bit her lip but did not say anything.
"Let's go, then. We will go to the Peony Sect now, the last sect on Nine-Five Island," Montes said seriously.
Gu Hai led his subordinates to a hidden, ruined valley.
Gu Hai placed the crimson saber into the authority token's space, and he waited quietly.
Guqin ran over from a nearby mound and said, "Adoptive Father, the Shenji Battalion's flying ship left!"
Gu Hai nodded.
"Adoptive Father, the Peony Sect has the dragon vein. Are you really not going?" Guqin asked out of curiosity.
Shaking his head, Gu Hai said seriously, "I have no advantage if I go now. Instead, I will be restricted. What's the point of going? "
"Foster Father is still preparing to fight for the Dragon Vein?"
Gu Hai shook his head and said, "I'm not sure yet. If there's a chance, we'll try. If there's no chance, we'll only hurt ourselves!"
"Yes!"
"Milord, Ding Rui's corpse is here!" Shangguan Hen said. Not far away, several evil men carried Ding Rui's corpse over.
However, Ding Rui's corpse was too horrible to look at.
"Father, what do you want this corpse for? We just need to search for the Fire Branch Leader's token! "Guqin asked curiously.
Shangguan Hen handed the Fire Helm Token to Gu Hai. Its shape was very similar to the Water Helm Token and the Earth Helm Token, but there was a flame pattern on it.
Looking at Ding Rui's corpse, Gu Hai said in a low voice, "Ding Rui's death is not to be regretted, but after all, she knew about the death of Long Wanqing's mother. She is dead, but her corpse is still here. We can't get anything out of her, but when the Unborn Man returns in the future, maybe we can use the corpse to find the human soul!"
"Human soul?" Guqin asked doubtfully.
"That's right. Make a grave for her. Hopefully, it can preserve her human soul, and it will be helpful to Long Wanqing and the others in the future!" Gu Hai nodded.
"Milord, I might have to disappoint you!" Shangguan Hen said with a bitter smile.
"Oh?"
"Li Haoran's palm strike seemed to be casual, but it landed on Ding Rui's head. It should have contained some soul-destroying power. Ding Rui's three souls should have been completely destroyed by Li Haoran!" Shangguan Hen said seriously.
"Destroyed three souls?" Gu Hai's face sank.
Shangguan Hen nodded, but he did not explain.
"Li Haoran, what a good plan!" Gu Hai said coldly.
"Milord, what should we do with Ding Rui's corpse?" Shangguan Hen asked.
"Bury it!" Gu Hai sighed softly.
"Yes!"
Everyone quickly buried Ding Rui's corpse.
However, Guqin took out a ring and gently waved his hand.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a flying ship appeared before everyone. It was Long Wanqing's White Cloud flying ship.
"Hall Master's three servants lent it to me. Naturally, I have to return it later!" Guqin said with a smile.
Looking at Guqin, Gu Hai smiled bitterly and said, "Never mind. You did not return it to Long Wanqing earlier. So be it. She is with Venerable Liu Nian. Venerable Liu Nian still has another one. Let's go back to the residence, then. "
With that, everyone boarded the flying ship.
A subordinate started the flying ship and soared into the sky, quickly flying into the distance.
On the flying ship, Gu Hai changed out of his dirty clothes in a room. At the same time, he checked Ding Rui's authority medallion.
Ding Rui was already dead, so Xiao Chen easily refined the authority medallion. Soon, he sensed the space inside.
There were tens of thousands of superior-grade spirit stones in the space. When Gu Hai saw this, he sighed. Aside from the spirit stones, there were some miscellaneous items that belonged to Ding Rui.
There were some books, Cultivation Techniques, Medicinal Pills, and daily necessities. There were also some sabers and swords.
"Ding Rui does not have a flying ship? She is not here? "Gu Hai felt somewhat regretful.
Aside from Cultivation Techniques, which were of some use to Gu Hai, there was nothing new. However, when Xiao Chen checked the items, he found a small box.
"Oh?" Gu Hai took out the box.
The box was very exquisite. It was stored separately in the authority medallion's space.
Gu Hai felt somewhat curious, so he gently opened the small box. There was a letter in the box.
As Gu Hai held the letter, he remained silent for a while. In the end, Gu Hai did not open the letter. Instead, he carefully placed it back in the box.
"Venerable Liu Nian is not in a rush to retrieve this authority medallion. He probably did not forget about it but wants to drag me into this. Ha! "Gu Hai showed a complicated expression.
Clack! Gu Hai closed the box and placed it back in the authority medallion's space.
After changing into a set of clean clothes, Gu Hai stepped out of the room and walked to the deck. As he stood on the deck, he watched the flying ship fly quickly.
"Adoptive Father, Nine-Five Island has five large sects that control six mortal regions. However, four of those sects are already destroyed. Only the Peony Sect remains. In that case, most of these mortal nations will belong to my Gu Residence in the future. Adoptive Father, why don't we take a look at the six mortal regions? "Guqin asked with some anticipation.
"We have plenty of time in the future. Right now, Nine-Five Island is not peaceful. Let's return first." Gu Hai shook his head.
"Alright, then!" Guqin said somewhat regretfully.
"Let's take things one step at a time. The region we live in has five nations. There are many things to do when we return," Gu Hai said with a smile.
"Yes!"
On the Shenji Battalion's flying ship:
There were also many palaces on the flying ship. At the entrance of one of the palaces, Venerable Liu Nian placed his hands on Long Wanqing's back, trying to break the seal on her.
Li Haoran looked at Venerable Liu Nian from the deck in the distance with a sullen expression. He seemed to be in a bad mood.
An armored, azure-faced man stood at the side.
"Gao Liusheng! There is something I need you to do! "Li Haoran said seriously.
"Yes. Battalion Commander, please give me your instructions!" the azure-faced man said solemnly.
"You arrived in the Yuanying State not long ago, right? You will lead the team and kill Gu Hai!" Li Haoran said seriously.
"Huh? Yes! "Gao Liusheng answered, not rejecting the order.
Li Haoran leaned on the railing and looked into the distance. "Nine-Five Island is a trap set up by Old Man Guanqi. That Sky Chess Pavilion disciple valued Gu Hai so highly. There must be a connection. Although Gu Hai said that he would not participate in the fight for the dragon vein, accidents are inevitable. I do not wish for any accidents to happen. Hence, Gu Hai needs to die.
You are the only one who can do it! "" Yes. However, this subordinate is worried … "Gao Liusheng said with a frown.
"I know that Gu Hai is very strong. Take one thousand Shenji Battalion disciples with you. Also, try not to do it yourself. I will give you some treasures. Use them to bribe fugitives to kill Gu Hai," Li Haoran said seriously.
"Yes. This subordinate happens to know a few Yuanying State disciples on Nine-Five Island. They are all bandits of the Thousand Islands Sea!" Gao Liusheng nodded.
"This ring contains the treasures to bribe them. Go and pick your men." Li Haoran handed over a ring.
"Yes!" Gao Liusheng answered.
Gao Liusheng quickly went to pick his subordinates.
The flying ship stopped at a mountain peak for a short time. Then, one thousand Shenji Battalion disciples jumped off the flying ship and rushed into the distance.
"Pu!"
Long Wanqing vomited a mouthful of blood as surging energy radiated from his body.
"Venerable Liu Nian, the seal is undone. Many thanks, Venerable!" Long Wanqing looked at his hands excitedly.
"However, Fu Xue's seal is rather strange, so it took a little longer." Venerable Liu Nian smiled as he stood up.
"Hey?" Long Wanqing raised his eyebrows. He happened to see one thousand Shenji Battalion disciples leaving the flying ship.
Just at this moment, Li Haoran walked over from afar.
"Battalion Commander Li, why are they leaving?" Long Wanqing asked, feeling confused.
"I sent them to do something. Don't worry!" Li Haoran smiled.
"Is that so?" Long Wanqing showed a slightly complicated expression.
After chatting for a while, Li Haoran returned to his residence.
Long Wanqing stood on the deck, looking at the Shenji Battalion disciples leaving with a heavy heart.
"Venerable, do you think those one thousand Shenji Battalion disciples are going to deal with Gu Hai?" Long Wanqing looked at Venerable Liu Nian worriedly.
Long Wanqing's experience in society was shallow. However, this did not mean that he was stupid. After thinking about it for a while, Long Wanqing could guess.
"I hope so!" Venerable Liu Nian smiled as he looked into the distance.
"Ah?" Long Wanqing said worriedly.
"Don't worry. This Gu Hai is not easy to deal with. Gao Liusheng should not be able to defeat Gu Hai," Venerable Liu Nian said seriously as he looked into the distance.
"However, what if he sneak-attacked?" Long Wanqing asked with a frown.
"A sneak-attack would be better. It would be best to anger Gu Hai. Ha!" Venerable Liu Nian laughed.
Long Wanqing: "…!"
"Don't worry. Gu Hai will be fine. He is very tough. However, you have to be careful when you enter the Peony Sect," Venerable Liu Nian said seriously.
"Yes!"
