One of them shouted in surprise. Yun Ming was very familiar with the voice. Wasn't that the leader's voice? It seemed like he had seen something unbelievable. Why did he lose his composure? Even his voice was a little high-pitched.
Yun Ming barely propped his body up. He quickly suppressed the surging blood in his body and walked over.
Hai Fu and the other person also heard the leader's voice and hurriedly followed.
At the same time, the cloud of dust scattered very quickly. By the time they got closer, it had almost completely disappeared.
Seeing the leader's face filled with disbelief, the other two people beside him also had an expression of disbelief.
Following their gazes, a somewhat familiar figure appeared in front of them.
A person was half-kneeling with one hand on the ground. The other hand was dragging the small pagoda. The small pagoda looked a little damaged. There was actually a hole in the bottom layer. Through the small hole, they could clearly see the situation inside. No wonder the leader and the others had already come out.
The figure had his head lowered, so they couldn't see his face clearly. However, from their angle, they could clearly see a hole in his lower right abdomen. They could even see the scene behind him through the hole.
When the figure raised his head slightly, the three of them cried out at the same time.
"Gu Zheng!"
There was no one in this group who didn't know Gu Zheng. Not to mention that he had already arrived here, he was together with Pan Xuan. Everyone was jealous of him.
At that time, everyone knew about this person, but there was still a portion of them who hadn't seen him before.
However, he turned the tide underground and defeated a Grand Heavenly Realm enemy. This allowed everyone to see how powerful this person was.
With his outstanding talent, everyone discussed how Pan Xuan had found a good lover. They all knew that Gu Zheng would definitely advance to the Grand Heavenly Realm.
However, they didn't expect that the one who stole the pagoda would be him.
However, who broke the pagoda and left him with such a serious injury?
Everyone's first reaction was that Lord Hao arranged for him to move the pagoda. This idea was very reasonable.
"Lord Gu, did you follow Lord Hao's orders to move the pagoda?" The leader asked doubtfully. If that was the case, this was actually the best result.
When Gu Zheng heard someone calling him, he raised his head with great effort. He looked across and smiled, revealing his white teeth.
"Yes. Otherwise, how would I know how to keep the pagoda?"
"Cough, cough." Gu Zheng couldn't help but cough a few more times. He spat out another mouthful of blood. "It's just a little accident.
It's not a big deal. "Looking at the hole in his lower abdomen, he used his only movable hand to cover it with a thin layer of membrane. Only then did he feel better.
"Lord Gu, I still have some pills here." After hearing this, the leader, Shura, respectfully....................................
. thanks.... Gu Zheng's face was pale as he smiled. He reached out to take it and gave his thanks. Cold sweat dripped down from his forehead uncontrollably.
................... At that moment, Yun Ming walked up from behind. Seeing the pained expression on Gu Zheng's face, he hoped that he could help.
. They didn't doubt Gu Zheng's words at all.
"No need. I can do it myself. The key is to send the pagoda back. I can't let down Lord Hao's request." Gu Zheng stood up and spoke righteously. His face was filled with determination.
"Lord Hao said before that this place wasn't safe and that we had to move as soon as possible. So he sent me here secretly. I didn't expect to disturb everyone."
Gu Zheng nodded apologetically. Gu Zheng had already sensed the battle in the distance. He thought of a way to trick them, but because of his previous performance, no matter what he said, they didn't suspect him at all.
They didn't even notice that their auras had changed. They didn't forget to think about other places.
"In order to prevent any mishaps, let us escort you, Lord Gu." One of the Asura people's eyes were filled with anger as he walked up and said, "Lord Hao has already been killed by that traitor You Xing. He's currently fighting with Lord Ouyang."
"What? Lord Hao is dead? That damned You Xing. Lord Hao secretly told me that something was wrong here. I thought that the people in the valley had received the news and wanted to add insult to injury. I didn't expect it to be him."
Gu Zheng pretended to be shocked as he spoke. His face was filled with sadness. He was pained by Lord Hao's death.
Gu Zheng shook his head and continued, "As for you escorting me, Lord Hao said that it must be kept a secret. Too many people will attract too much attention. I'll go alone."
"But your injuries …" Ming Yuan couldn't help but say. What he saw earlier was too serious. Although he looked much better now, the internal injuries couldn't be healed in a short period of time.
"It's alright. I'll hide before they notice me." Gu Zheng endured the discomfort and limped slowly toward the forest behind him. He didn't forget to give orders.
"Keep it a secret for me. Don't let too many people know. I'm moving to a secret location. I'll come back when the situation is clear."
However, the effect of the pill was remarkable. It had forcefully kept him alive. Moreover, he could feel his injuries slowly recovering. As long as he found a place to hide, he would be able to recover in a month at most.
One of the Shura wanted to help Gu Zheng up, but he was stopped by the leader.
"Lord Gu doesn't need our help. He's a true warrior." The leader looked at Gu Zheng with admiration as he disappeared into the forest. "We still need to work harder. We can't bear any hardship. We have to learn from Lord Gu."
"Learn, my foot. You bunch of idiots."
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from afar. Everyone looked up. It turned out that You Xing and Ouyang Ping were already facing each other not far away.
At this moment, both of them didn't look too good. Both of them were covered in wounds. It was obvious that the battle just now had been intense.
Especially Ouyang Ping. Everyone could feel his anger.
"I'll be angered to death by you. Have you forgotten that Gu Zheng's disguise has disappeared? He's not one of our people now." Ouyang Ping's angry voice was heard.
In fact, they really didn't notice. Looking at Lord Ouyang's flustered and exasperated expression, he didn't seem to be lying. Could it be that Lord Ouyang was telling the truth?
"But he clearly saved many lives underground before," an Shura retorted. He still couldn't believe that Gu Zheng was a spy.
"That was just a smokescreen to gain your trust. I just found out." Ouyang Ping didn't know why Gu Zheng would save them from underground, but the other party was really a spy.
Looking at the other party, You Xing began to get restless, wanting to stop him from continuing.
"Think about it. If it's true, why didn't he let you escort him?" Ouyang Ping heard their conversation, but the battle just now was intense, so he couldn't speak. He could only watch as Gu Zheng left.
"Whether you believe it or not, hurry up and follow Gu Zheng. See where he's going. If I'm wrong, then treat it as escorting them. Don't let him run too far. Hurry up, don't just stand there like a fool."
Ouyang Ping was really worried about them. Everyone could hear the anxiety in his voice. On the other side, You Xing was already close to attack. He had to stop talking and focus on dealing with You Xing.
"Are we really going to chase? I feel that Lord Ouyang's words make sense. I felt that something was wrong before, "Hai Fu hesitated for a moment, but still said.
Everyone knew that you were usually very meticulous. Everyone looked at the leader to see what his opinion was.
"Although I don't really believe that Gu Zheng is really a spy, we can't not believe Lord Ouyang's words." The leader thought for a moment and said, "Let's follow Lord Ouyang's words. We'll secretly follow Gu Zheng. Let's see what happens first."
"If Gu Zheng is really a spy, we don't have to be merciful." The leader seemed to have made a decision and said ruthlessly.
"I have a magic treasure that can follow him from a distance without being discovered by him." Yun Ming said from the side. He took out a slender silver rod and came to the place where Gu Zheng was holding it.
There was now a pool of blood under it. It was all left from his hand just now.
He carefully took out a small jade bottle and poured some blood from the bottom. Then, he soaked the silver rod in the blood.
Yun Ming chanted an incantation, and after the word "open" came out of his mouth, the silver stick suddenly floated into the air, some blood still stained on it. It quickly spun a few times, and finally stopped in one direction.
"Lord Yuan, we've already tracked him. We can track him for at least a month. With some of the jade bottle, it's enough to see where he went." Yun Ming said to the leader.
"Let's go." Lord Yuan took the lead and chased after the place where Gu Zheng had fled.
Asura's team had an unwritten rule. In a group of people, if there was no special appointment, the person with the highest cultivation and reputation would automatically become the team leader. This would ensure that they could unite.
The group of people disappeared one after another. They started to chase after Gu Zheng with different thoughts.
In a forest, the seven of them did not speak. The person who had fainted at the beginning had already woken up. He knew everything that Lord Ouyang had said. The atmosphere was very silent.
"What if Gu Zheng is really a spy?" Hai Fu suddenly asked Yun Ming who was beside him.
What should I do? Yun Ming was also confused. He did not know. He had killed so many of his clansmen underground. However, he had saved everyone's lives.
If Gu Zheng was on the other side's side, then in the end, everyone confirmed that the ghost cultivator had died. This was not a statement made by one person, but by dozens of people at the same time.
It could be said that what happened underground had nothing to do with Gu Zheng. If it were not for Lord Hao's method, they, including Gu Zheng, could have died in there.
"Of course we have to kill him without mercy. It doesn't matter if he saved our lives or not. We have to think about our clansmen." The last person heard Fu Hai's words. Although he was not talking to himself, he still interrupted.
However, other than him, everyone was silent. No one answered her.
The atmosphere was silent again.
Ming Yuan had a good impression of Gu Zheng. He was the unlucky guy who had been captured. At that time, Gu Zheng had not cared about him. In fact, it could be said that he had indirectly saved him.
Speaking of which, Gu Zheng's appearance was very strange. In the past, no one had heard of this person. People had only seen him eat with Su Nan once. If Su Nan had betrayed Asura, people would have believed it. At least, his clan had been destroyed by Young Master Feng.
However, if you said that she had destroyed her own clan for him, no one would believe it. Everyone knew what kind of person Su Nan was. She was someone who put her clan first.
Moreover, Miss Pan Xuan had been with Gu Zheng all the time. If you said that Miss Pan Xuan had betrayed him, that would be the biggest joke.
However, his appearance did not bring any disaster to everyone. Not only did he save Miss Pan, but he also saved everyone.
The greatest damage he had done was to deceive everyone and take away the stone pagoda.
In fact, many people did not think that the stone tower was dispensable. Only a very small number of people needed it. Most people just felt that it was easy to get close to and convenient.
Ai, Ming Yuan did not know what to do. He might as well not say anything. He would talk about it later.
Although most of the Asura people were interested in benefits, there were always people who had different views. Ming Yuan knew that he was such a person.
Because his heart had softened towards Gu Zheng. Since he had saved his life, he had to repay this favor.
If he went against his heart on this matter, he would be stuck with this heart demon for the rest of his life. It was possible that he would be like this for the rest of his life.
Ming Yuan controlled the silver staff and adjusted the direction from time to time. He did not expect Gu Zheng to be so seriously injured. If it were anyone else, they would probably be lying on the ground half-dead. They might even die if they were not treated in time.
However, he was still so fast even though he was seriously injured. Logically speaking, Ming Yuan should have been able to catch up to him, but he still could not sense his position.
If it were not for the silver staff pointing the direction, everyone would have thought that they had lost him. Fortunately, there would be traces from time to time, letting them know that they were following him.
The seven people moved through the forest at an extremely fast speed. They wanted to follow Gu Zheng, but they could only see some fresh blood on the road. But where was Gu Zheng?
At this time, Gu Zheng was running with all his strength. Drops of blood jumped out of his wound, leaving a bloody trail.
The pain in his abdomen made Gu Zheng endure the inhumane torture. His wound would be torn open by his own actions. The torn wound would then continue to heal under the effect of the medicine, over and over again.
If it were not for Gu Zheng's strong will to force himself, he would have fainted on the road. Feeling the pursuit behind him, Gu Zheng recalled the scene when he had just come out.
At that time, the moment Gu Zheng came out with the small pagoda, he felt that he was being watched by a feeling of death.
He did not have time to see what was waiting for him, but he knew that if he did not have a good plan, he would not be able to escape this disaster.
The protective shield that he had put up in an instant did not buy him any time. The protective shield of the Human Book was forcefully activated, and its defense was greatly inferior. This was something that Gu Zheng knew.
At that moment, he had subconsciously used the small pagoda to block the enemy's path.
An invisible force directly shook his body along the small pagoda. When his arm came into contact with it, his arm had been broken into hundreds of pieces. The meridians inside were all gone. It could be said that his arm was crippled.
It was only by relying on the connection between the red gloves and the small pagoda that he was able to maintain his appearance.
Gu Zheng subconsciously swallowed the pill in his mouth. He stared at the front of the small pagoda. A wisp of red dissipated, indicating that something had attacked him.
It was actually a long sword. Moreover, the aura attached to it was actually the aura of a peak Grand Luo. Gu Zheng would definitely not be mistaken.
Gu Zheng instantly thought of the peak Grand Luo guarding the south. It was very likely that one of them had attacked. Thinking of the black light from before, it was also very likely that it was together.
If he had not been purified by the blood diamond, he would definitely have been sucked in and directly pierced to death by the long sword that was following closely behind.
Fortunately, he had accidentally entered the core of the pagoda in advance, causing the small sword to only be able to guard him outside. When he came out, the small pagoda fell into his hands.
After the long sword locked onto his position, it directly attacked him.
He did not expect that the outside world would be so terrifying. Fortunately, he was prepared.
The pill was like a torrent that cleansed his body. In an instant, his condition was restored to its peak. Even the origin of the Immortal Qi in his body was restored to its peak state.
Even the hundreds of pieces of his arm were restored. The fluctuations in his body were directly washed away by the torrent.
The stalemate did not last for more than a few times. The long sword's body started to crack little by little, while the small pagoda was still emitting white light. It seemed that the small pagoda had completely defeated the other party.
The moment the small sword's body broke, all the materials were vaporized, forming a cloud of smoke.
However, the long sword still maintained the appearance of a long sword. It was completely composed of energy.
Under Gu Zheng's worried gaze, the energy formed by the long sword started to spin on its own. Its speed became faster and faster. He could only hear a buzzing sound in his ears. An even greater impact came from the small pagoda.
Some red light had already penetrated the light screen and probed into the stone pagoda.
The small pagoda's body started to flicker. The pagoda's body also started to creak. It was as if it could not withstand the other party's attack and was about to split open.
However, the small pagoda was still the Grand Ancestor's item. Although it might not be important to the Grand Ancestor, it still entered his eyes.
In the end, the small pagoda still stood firm and did not split open. Only some stone fragments fell. However, the outer layer of protection could no longer hold on.
Gu Zheng did not even have time to react. He saw the small pagoda's light screen flash twice and then disappear.
The red energy let out a low whistling sound. A powerful airflow appeared behind it. That sound directly penetrated his eardrums, causing him to become dazed.
He could vaguely see a red light shoot directly into the first level of the small pagoda. With a loud boom, it directly created a large hole in the first level of the small pagoda.
After doing all this, the red energy's power was already less than a hundred percent. However, it still shot toward Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng was now dizzy. He could not react at all. He could not block the other party.
