Pang Tianlong thrust his sword. It looked like a strand of red Veritable Energy covered the sword as it charged at Gu Hai with a strong murderous intent.
"Song Qingshu, why are you blocking me?" Chen Tianshan glared.
"Don't rush. The division master did not ask you to help. Why are you in such a rush?" Song Qingshu sneered.
Chen Tianshan glared at Song Qingshu. On the other side, Gao Xianzhi also felt anxious. However, they were too far away in the end.
"Veritable Energy Possession, Second Layer Innate Realm?" the bearded man in the crowd said with narrowed eyes.
Many of the surrounding cultivators stared at Gu Hai. However, no one stopped him or helped him.
The sword moved very quickly, arriving before Gu Hai in the blink of an eye.
"Be careful!" the snake girl exclaimed in horror.
At this moment, Gu Hai narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Boom!
He suddenly stomped his foot on the ground, and as he stomped on the ground, a loud sound that shook the heavens resounded, and it shook the hearts of everyone.
Boom!
Following that, a second sound rang out. Gu Hai's punch landed on Pang Tianlong's abdomen.
Xiao Chen's punch was too fast. Furthermore, Xiao Chen's strength was too great. After punching, Pang Tianlong immediately flew back like a cannonball.
"Ah!"
Boom!
A loud sound rang out as Pang Tianlong crashed into a stone wall, shattering a large number of rocks.
"What? That's impossible! "Song Qingshu suddenly exclaimed.
"Division Master?" Gao Xianzhi goggled as well.
Everyone knew what Gu Hai's cultivation was — the First Layer Innate Realm. However, that Pang Tianlong could not even last one move against Gu Hai. Xiao Chen's earlier speed was too fast. Before Pang Tianlong could react, Xiao Chen punched him in the abdomen and sent him flying.
How much strength and speed was required to do that?
"How can this be? How can a First Layer Innate Realm cultivator possess such strength and speed? "Chen Tianshan goggled as well.
"Junior Brother!"
The group of First Song Sect disciples immediately shouted.
"Pfft! No, no, it's impossible. You, you just stepped into the Xiantian realm, how could you be my match? "Pang Tianlong lay paralyzed in the ruins, looking at Gu Hai in horror.
The power of that punch was so great that Pang Tianlong felt as if his internal organs had been shattered. He instantly lost all strength.
The group of First Song Sect disciples wanted to charge forward. However, Gu Hai turned his head and eyed them coldly. "The First Song Sect wants to get involved? You want to become enemies with Class One Hall? "
When Gu Hai glared, the expressions of the First Song Sect disciples changed, and they stopped moving.
"That's impossible. Gu Hai's attack just now should have the strength of a third-layer Xiantian Realm expert. No, at least the strength of a third-layer Xiantian Realm expert. But, but he's only at the first-layer Xiantian Realm." Song Qingshu's eyes widened.
"External martial arts? Is it because Gu Hai cultivates external martial arts? External martial arts temper the body. His physical body is already incredibly strong in the Acquired Realm? "Chen Tianshan's expression changed slightly.
Among the crowd, the bearded man narrowed his eyes as he stared at the spot where Gu Hai had stomped on earlier. That stomp had shattered several rocks.
"First-layer Xiantian Realm? What a strong physical body! How did an Acquired Realm cultivator cultivate? "the bearded man muttered to himself as he looked at Gu Hai. A sinister look flashed in his eyes.
Gu Hai picked up Pang Tianlong's sword and slowly walked over to him, a cold look in his eyes.
Pang Tianlong also looked at Gu Hai in horror. Originally, he thought that Gu Hai had just advanced to the Xiantian Realm and would not be strong. Who could have expected him to be so strong? To think that Pang Tianlong could not retaliate at all.
"Senior Brother! Save me! Senior Brother! Senior Brother!" Pang Tianlong shouted in horror as he watched Gu Hai approach.
However, the First Song Sect disciples exchanged glances. They all showed unsightly expressions, not daring to step forward.
"Division Master Gu, Pang Tianlong has offended you. Division Master Gu, please forgive him!" a First Song Sect disciple said anxiously.
"You are not qualified to speak to me. He wanted to kill me earlier. Why didn't you say so?" Gu Hai retorted coldly without even turning his head.
"But —"
"This is a personal grudge between him and Elite Hall. If you want to help him, then it is a grudge between Elite Hall and the First Song Sect. Scram to the side!" Gu Hai said coldly.
"You!" the group of First Song Sect disciples exclaimed in shock and anger.
However, it was as Gu Hai said; they could not do anything.
"Martial Uncle, save me, Martial Uncle!" Pang Tianlong begged Song Qingshu in horror.
Song Qingshu's expression changed slightly. "Division Master, all the grudges are because of this snake girl. Why do you have to —"
"Song Qingshu!"
Gu Hai shouted coldly, interrupting Song Qingshu. Then, he turned his head and looked at Song Qingshu coldly.
Song Qingshu's expression turned slightly unsightly. However, he still said, "Division Master, Pang Tianlong is just confused for a moment!"
Gu Hai smiled coldly and said, "Song Qingshu, you said earlier that you have no right to manage him. What's wrong? You have no right to manage him, but you have the right to manage me? "
"Huh?" Song Qingshu's expression froze.
"You said that you cannot make decisions for him. What's wrong? Can you make decisions for me?" Gu Hai said coldly.
Song Qingshu's expression turned unsightly. "This subordinate does not dare!"
"It is best that you do not dare. Stay at the side and stop speaking nonsense!" Gu Hai said coldly.
After speaking, Gu Hai no longer bothered with the ashen Song Qingshu. Instead, he turned to look at Pang Tianlong.
Pang Tianlong looked at Gu Hai in horror. Unexpectedly, with just a few words, Gu Hai was able to force his senior brother not to go forward and his martial uncle not to save him.
Only now did Pang Tianlong realize how terrifying Gu Hai was.
"Division Master Gu, don't kill me. I offended you earlier. It was my fault. It was my fault. Please don't kill me!" Pang Tianlong cried out in horror.
Gu Hai pointed his sword at Pang Tianlong and said coldly, "Sometimes, I, Gu Hai, will be soft-hearted. It's just like how I could not bear to watch you torture and kill this snake woman. I would save her if I could. This is because my humanity has not been extinguished. I will cherish this humanity. However, I am more rational most of the time. I will not let people who deserve to die live, nor will I be soft-hearted."
Shing!
Gu Hai instantly stabbed his sword into Pang Tianlong's head.
"No!" Pang Tianlong screamed in horror.
The group of First Song Sect disciples felt extremely anxious. However, even though they felt extremely anxious, no one dared to step forward to stop him. Only when blood and brain matter spurted out and everyone looked at Gu Hai did they reveal some horror.
During the war between the two nations, Song Qingshu had always looked down on Gu Hai from high above. Even after Gu Hai became a division master, Song Qingshu did not view him as a threat. After all, Gu Hai's cultivation was too weak. However, at this moment, Song Qingshu felt horrified.
His promise to the sect master to kill Gu Hai silently a few days ago seemed to have wavered. As Song Qingshu looked at Gu Hai's back, he felt incredibly tall, so tall that Song Qingshu was no match for him.
How can this be? An illusion! Song Qingshu shouted in his heart as he clenched his fists tightly.
After Gu Hai killed Pang Tianlong, he turned around and walked over to the snake woman. Then, he slowly picked up the snake woman and looked around at the surrounding cultivators.
Wherever Xiao Chen looked, many cultivators unconsciously took a step back.
"Ha!" Gu Hai revealed a cold smile as he slowly walked towards the crowd.
The crowd quickly opened up a path for Gu Hai.
Gao Xianzhi and Chen Tianshan immediately followed closely behind. When Song Qingshu saw Pang Tianlong's corpse, his expression turned unsightly. Then, he bit his lip and followed.
At this moment, the snake woman was in Gu Hai's embrace. Although she was covered in wounds, she did not seem to feel any pain. As she looked at Gu Hai's face, her eyes turned moist. She slowly leaned her head against Gu Hai's chest, feeling this chest that gave her warmth despite her despair.
Gu Hai's group of four and the snake woman slowly walked into the forest. However, none of the surrounding cultivators stepped forward to stop them. As the cultivators watched the four leave, they showed complicated expressions.
"Alright, it is just a useless snake servant. Let's go. Let's continue going deeper!"
"We have already delayed for so long. Let's continue going in!"
…
…
…
The hundreds of cultivators quickly spread out, continuing to explore this independent world.
After the First Song Sect disciples collected Pang Tianlong's corpse, they all showed unsightly expressions. However, after thinking for a while, the leader still chased in the direction Gu Hai went.
In the blink of an eye, everyone left, leaving only a group of gray-robed men. There were about thirty of them, and the leader was that bearded man.
"Division Master, was that the new Water Division Master earlier?" a subordinate asked with an unsightly expression.
The bearded man narrowed his eyes and said, "It looks like the hall master conferred it."
"Division Master, what should we do now?" another subordinate asked out of curiosity.
"Don't worry. Someone will help us deal with it!" the bearded man said with a cold smile.
At a small tent beside a small stream:
Before Gu Hai set off, he stored a large amount of medicine in the compressed space in his authority token. Now, he took out the medicine and gently applied it on the snake woman's wounds.
"Many thanks, Benefactor!" the snake woman said gratefully with tears in her eyes.
"You should recuperate first. It is rare for me to be so soft-hearted, "Gu Hai said with a faint sigh.
"Yes!" The snake woman was already exhausted. She slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Gu Hai left the tent. Only Gao Xianzhi stood guard outside the tent.
"Division Master, Chen Tianshan and Song Qingshu went out to scout the terrain. They will return in the evening," Gao Xianzhi said respectfully.
Gu Hai nodded.
"Division Master, something seems off with Song Qingshu. Not only did he not help earlier, but he even added insult to injury. I'm afraid … "Gao Xianzhi said worriedly.
"I know. However, he is a Water Division disciple, after all. I need to give him some chances. If he remains stubborn, then don't blame me," Gu Hai said while shaking his head.
"Yes!" Gao Xianzhi nodded.
In a valley not far away from Gu Hai:
The curly-bearded man from before was standing together with Song Qingshu.
"Earth Division Master, this is what happened. I did not expect Earth Division Master to be in the crowd earlier," Song Qingshu said respectfully to the bearded man.
The bearded man looked at Song Qingshu and asked, "The First Song Sect Master told you to kill Gu Hai?"
"Yes. However, I am somewhat worried. I don't know why …" Song Qingshu said with some difficulty.
"It looks like he already told you. In that case, organize the First Song Sect disciples and prepare to surround and kill Gu Hai," the bearded man said indifferently.
"Ah?"
"Didn't your sect master tell you? Perhaps the Water Division Master position is reserved for you, "the bearded man said indifferently.
"What? Me as the Water Division Master? How can that be? "
"I believe he told you about the alliance agreement. The First Song Sect did its best to help us and obtained the Water Division Master position. Now that you have joined Elite Hall, the Water Division Master position is naturally reserved for you. You should know what benefits the Water Division Master will enjoy after you register at Elite Hall's headquarters, "the bearded man said with a sinister smile as he looked at Song Qingshu.
Song Qingshu's eyelids twitched.
"Think about it yourself. After all, I have nothing to lose, so I won't say much. Remember, I did not come looking for you, either," the bearded man said with a cold smile as he stared at Song Qingshu.
As the bearded man spoke, he entered the forest and vanished.
However, Song Qingshu remained where he was, his expression flickering.
