Boom …
A thunderous roar shook the heavens.
The Eldest Young Master immediately clashed with Gu Shan.
Rays of light shot out in all directions, and Qi waves surged.
At this moment, the entire altar was shaking violently.
Strong gusts of wind swept out.
Sand and pebbles flew everywhere, and the whirlwind was boundless.
Thud thud thud …
After a single exchange, the Eldest Young Master and Gu Shan were both sent flying backward.
"Stop them!"
Seeing the Eldest Young Master blocking his way, the other three silhouettes dashed towards the altar, how could Gu Shan not panic?
He couldn't let these people succeed.
This was Gu Shan's only thought.
He roared crazily at the other four people beside him.
Akatsuki's beast soul?
He couldn't care less now!
He had to stop these people as soon as possible. Gu Shan wasn't willing to work for others.
If the remnant soul and the Divine King's essence blood were taken away by these people, wouldn't their Gu family become a complete failure?
Not only Gu Shan, but the other four elders of the Gu Family were also anxious.
"Where are you going?!"
"Stay here!"
Disregarding everything else, the four of them tried their best to free themselves.
Swish swish …
The sound of something tearing through the air could be heard.
In the blink of an eye, two figures shot out, heading straight for the two protectors of the Alliance of Nine Cities.
"Ah …"
Following that, another elder spat out his essence blood and burned his Veritable Essence Energy to break free of Akatsuki's beast soul's restriction. Then, he charged at Ninth Young Master.
As for the last person?
He left with his companions and was suppressed by Akatsuki. For a moment, his life was hanging by a thread.
The scene was completely chaotic.
"Alliance of Nine Cities, it's you!"
Gu Shan roared furiously as he steadied himself.
He was secretly shocked.
At this moment, how could Gu Shan not recognize him?
That's right, aren't these people from the Alliance of the Nine Cities?
One was the First Young Master, and the other was the Ninth Young Master …
Although the Gu Family hadn't participated in worldly affairs for many years, it didn't mean that the Gu Family didn't know what was going on in the outside world.
The Alliance of the Nine Cities had already existed when the Gu Family was at its peak. In the Alliance of the Nine Cities, there were many talented people.
In the past few decades, the Nine Young Masters were the strongest. Among the nine young masters, there were three geniuses. First Young Master, Third Young Master, and Ninth Young Master!
How could the Gu Clan not know about these three people?
Thus, Gu Shan instantly recognized the Eldest Young Master and the Ninth Young Master.
Who would have thought that they would be the ones participating in the fight?
How did they get this information?
Gu Shan's heart was filled with shock. At the same time, he groaned inwardly!
"Humph! Gu Family, today, this Divine King's Blood Essence and remnant soul are mine! "
Ninth Young Master sneered while Gu Shan felt horrified.
"Bastard! Don't even think about succeeding. Does your Alliance of Nine Cities want to be the enemy of my Gu Family?! "
Gu Shan used the name of the Gu Clan.
"Hahaha …"
Upon hearing Gu Shan's words, the Eldest Young Master sneered.
It was as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. "Gu Family? If you were at your peak, you might have had the right to say such words. However, would the Alliance of the Nine Cities be afraid of the Gu Family at that time? Back then, he wasn't afraid, and now, he was even less afraid! The era of the Gu Family has already passed! "
The Eldest Young Master's face was cold.
Bringing up the Gu Family's name at this time? Did Gu Shan really think that he could scare anyone?
The Alliance of the Nine Cities had been unhindered for so many years. How many factions could the Alliance of the Nine Cities truly fear in the battlefield?
In any case, the Gu Family was not one of them.
Back then, the Gu Family might have made the Alliance of the Nine Cities hesitate. However, it could not now.
This was especially so before such great benefits.
"Scram!"
After sneering, the Eldest Young Master roared and charged at Gu Shan.
"Damn it!"
The Eldest Young Master's figure flashed, clashing with the Eldest Young Master again. Gu Shan complained endlessly.
When he saw the battle in the distance from the corner of his eye, he felt even more anxious.
The Nine Cities were at a disadvantage.
Gu Shan could still hold his ground against the Eldest Young Master, but what about the other directions?
Three Elders managed to extricate themselves from the fight, but they were at a disadvantage.
Two of them could still exchange blows with two of the Alliance of the Nine Cities' old men.
As for the other one?
Ninth Young Master severely injured him in the blink of an eye.
The last one was covered in blood from Akatsuki's attack, on the verge of death.
What should he do?
If this continued, the Divine King's essence blood and remnant soul would end up in the hands of the Alliance of the Nine Cities.
This made Gu Shan want to go crazy.
…
"Boom …"
Explosions rang out endlessly.
The Gu Clan retreated step by step.
It looked like Ninth Young Master was about to extricate himself.
The battle was extremely intense.
However, both sides did not know that there was a pair of eyes watching everything in the dark.
Furthermore, the owner of that pair of eyes was the mastermind behind all this.
That was right. It was Wang Chen.
Knowing that he could not deal with the Gu Clan alone, Wang Chen lured the Alliance of the Nine Cities' people over.
Wang Chen knew very well what Ninth Young Master needed.
In reality, Wang Chen's plan had succeeded. At the very least, everything had been a success up until now.
The Gu Clan had done a good job keeping their plan a secret. However, it was unfortunate that Gu Shan had a grandson. Coincidentally, Wang Chen had killed Gu Hai, Gu Shan's grandson. Gu Hai told the news to Gu Yue, and Gu Yue stood on Wang Chen's side.
The Gu Clan would not believe that Wang Chen had leaked this news to the Alliance of the Nine Cities' people.
When two experts fought, the fisherman reaped the benefits.
Right now, Wang Chen was playing this role.
Seeing the two sides fighting, the situation turning chaotic, and the Alliance of the Nine Cities gaining the upper hand, Wang Chen's expression turned solemn.
It was time for him to make a move.
As Wang Chen became solemn, energy surged around him.
"Let's go!"
After a while, just as Ninth Young Master was about to escape and head for the sacrificial altar, Wang Chen was about to do the same.
"If you want to die, you can leave now!"
However, just as Wang Chen was about to leave, a cold voice rang out.
"Who is it?!"
The sudden voice made Wang Chen's body stiffen, and he felt a chill run down his spine.
Who is it?
When did another person appear by his side?
When did this person appear here? Who is he?
Wang Chen quickly looked around.
Right now, Wang Chen was like a wild beast, ready to attack at any moment.
"It's you!"
Soon, when he saw the figure standing not far behind him, Wang Chen's eyes widened.
This was a familiar person to Wang Chen, a mysterious woman in Wang Chen's eyes.
She wore a long, fiery-red dress. She left a deep impression, just like when they first met.
If life was as short as it was when we first met. At this moment, it seemed so.
In that instant, time and space froze, leaving one dazed.
"Wu Qingxue!"
Finally, after a moment, Wang Chen called out this woman's name.
Wu Qingxue!
That was right. The person who spoke earlier, standing not far behind Wang Chen, was Wu Qingxue, whom Wang Chen had met in the sea eye's core.
She was devastatingly beautiful and aloof from the world.
However, compared to before, she seemed to lack a smile.
Back then, they parted at the sea eye's core. Unexpectedly, she appeared here.
"Why are you here?!"
Wang Chen asked in a deep voice.
Wang Chen had mixed feelings about Wu Qingxue.
This was because Wang Chen knew very well that he owed Wu Qingxue a huge favor.
If it were not for Wu Qingxue, Wang Chen would have died in the sea eye's core.
At the very least, Wang Chen would not have been able to obtain the Nine Ginseng King there!
This woman, whose identity was like a mystery, now appeared here. What did she want?
"Why can't I come here?"
Amidst Wang Chen's complicated and shocked expression, Wu Qingxue revealed a smile and asked unhurriedly.
"You want to fight for that remnant soul and blood essence?"
Wang Chen frowned and asked.
"Yes!"
Wu Qingxue said softly.
She seemed to have thought of something, but her eyes were a little unfocused.
"Why?"
"You don't need to know!"
"I need that remnant soul and blood essence!"
"I know!"
"Will we become enemies?"
"No!"
The conversation between the two was very simple.
Wang Chen revealed a doubtful expression when he heard Wu Qingxue's answer.
Wu Qingxue seemed to be getting more and more incomprehensible.
They wouldn't become enemies?
Why was that?
In the end, only one person could obtain that remnant soul and blood essence.
Could it be …
Wang Chen's heart skipped a beat.
"I'll help you!"
Wu Qingxue said when Wang Chen seemed to have thought of something.
Her words were simple, but they were like a clap of thunder.
"You'll help me? Why? "
Wang Chen was even more curious.
Wu Qingxue appeared here just to help him? It was hard to believe.
However, Wu Qingxue's serious expression made it impossible for anyone to doubt her words.
What was she trying to do?
"There's no need to ask why! You'll know in the future. Now, let's just prepare to make our move! "
Wu Qingxue said expressionlessly without answering Wang Chen's question.
She looked at the battlefield in the distance.
The Ninth Young Master had already left the battlefield and was heading straight for the altar.
The jade box and the remnant soul were within reach.
Gu Shan roared furiously from behind, but he couldn't do anything to the First Young Master.
The situation seemed to have reached a conclusion.
"We should make our move!"
At the sight of this, Wang Chen could not care less about his endless doubts and hurriedly explained.
They had to act now.
Otherwise, if the treasure fell into the Ninth Young Master's hands, it would be even more difficult to fight for it. At that time, he would really be lifting a rock only to drop it on his own feet!
"There's no rush! He won't succeed that easily. We'll have to wait a little longer. However, it's almost time! "
Wu Qingxue remained indifferent when faced with Wang Chen's anxiety.
There was no trace of worry on her face.
It was as if everything was under her control.
The confidence in her eyes gave Wang Chen a strange feeling.
Was this a trap within a trap? Could it be that Wu Qingxue was the final mastermind?
For some reason, when looking at Wu Qingxue, Wang Chen's restless heart actually calmed down.
"Roar!"
As expected.
Just as Ninth Young Master was about to obtain the jade box and collect the remnant soul, a furious roar rang out.
At this moment, Akatsuki's beast soul also went berserk.
The Scarlet Moon Demon Monarch swallowed the dying Gu Clan elder in one gulp and headed straight for Ninth Young Master.
The berserk shock wave blocked Ninth Young Master's footsteps.
In the blink of an eye, Akatsuki surrounded Ninth Young Master.
No one could think of obtaining the jade box or collecting the remnant soul.
Akatsuki would not let these people succeed.
Upon seeing this scene, Wang Chen suddenly understood.
Was this why Wu Qingxue wanted him to wait?
Perhaps Akatsuki was really willing to pay any price to protect the jade box and the remnant soul? Who knew if it had a backup plan?
However, if that was the case, when would they make their move?
Wang Chen's heart seemed to stop beating.
He waited quietly.
