Su Nan and Gu Zheng were like startled rabbits. They didn't even turn their heads as they quickly fled outside.
"Bang bang!"
They had just run out of the forest, but before they could see anything, they felt a sharp pain in their stomachs and flew back.
"It's you, why are you here?" Gu Zheng felt a figure in front of him. He looked up and realized it was Ouyang Ping.
He was looking at them with a smile. Then, he let out a scream to inform his companions that he was in front of them.
Su Nan and Gu Zheng looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Wasn't he just beside them? Why did he suddenly come here?
Ouyang Ping's mood was much better now. He didn't expect to catch two small fish when he came here to check on the person in charge because he was injured.
Especially when he knew that Su Nan seemed to have stolen something from the protector. He was already worried that he couldn't break through the water curtain.
Now that he caught the two of them, Ouyang Ping felt more at ease.
Especially Pan Xuan's man. He didn't expect him to be with Su Nan. He called everyone here to check. He was right.
He was indeed a traitor. Su Nan was his accomplice. With him taking care of her, no one could recognize her.
Su Nan pulled Gu Zheng up. Now, her escape route was blocked by the other party.
Maybe this was her fate. Maybe she would die here. But she couldn't let anything happen to Little Worm.
At this time, a group of people walked over from afar. The leader was the person in charge. However, he seemed to be heavily injured.
"Lord Ouyang, I didn't expect you to leave so suddenly. So it was because you found Su Nan. The Left Protector will be very happy if she knows." The person in charge saw Su Nan and the others from afar and said in surprise.
However, when he saw Gu Zheng's face, he was puzzled. He didn't seem to have seen this person before. Moreover, he seemed to be one of the other party's men.
Could it be that he was the one who instigated Su Nan? Otherwise, he wouldn't have appeared outside.
"Lord Xia, although this is your first time seeing this person, you must have heard of him before." Ouyang Ping looked at the person in charge's puzzled face and said with a smile.
"Who is he? I'm very curious now that you mention it." The person in charge said with interest.
As for Gu Zheng and the other two, with Lord Ouyang around, they couldn't play any tricks.
Although the people behind him knew who he was, they were still a little shocked. They didn't expect Su Nan and Gu Zheng to be together. According to the Protector's orders, Su Nan seemed to have stolen something precious.
"He is Gu Zheng."
"I didn't expect him to be Gu Zheng. What a pity." The person in charge was stunned at first. Then, he walked around Gu Zheng a few times. No one knew what he was feeling pity about.
"Master Ouyang, what do we do with the two of them? The other side has already begun to teleport people, and more than half of our puppets have been killed or injured. Moreover, many of our people have also been injured." The person in charge only sighed and did not ask him any further.
As for the two of them, he had already sentenced them to death in his heart. Although Su Nan's identity was special, his life and death could not be judged by them.
They had to be captured and brought back to the clan to be judged by the higher-ups. However, according to the rules of the clan, the best outcome for those who dared to betray the clan, no matter who they were, was death on the spot.
At the very least, he wouldn't have to suffer the torture his body would not receive before he died.
"Capture Su Nan for me. I will personally meet Gu Zheng." At this time, there were at least dozens of people around, and there were more than ten peak-stage Jin Xian puppets. These puppets had escaped death because of Ouyang Ping.
"Master Su, I'm sorry." One of the Shura people came in front of him. Behind him stood five peak-stage Jin Xian puppets.
Before being judged by the clan, his status would not change.
The others directly formed a large circle. There was enough space, and in fact, they were already one-third of the distance to the water curtain.
Elder Qin had already seen the situation here. Some of them spontaneously walked to the side to monitor the situation.
Although there were only a few of them, and they didn't need to be on guard. They could not do anything to the water curtain, but they were afraid that the other side had some tricks up their sleeves.
Elder Qin saw that Gu Zheng was intercepted by the other side and his life was in danger.
If the Old Man and Old Woman Qin could go out, Ouyang Ping would definitely not be a match for the two of them. However, when he thought about the possibility that there were puppet insects in his body, he thought about it.
If he went out and was controlled by the other side, it would be a bigger disaster. Moreover, everyone's plan to break out would fail because of this.
He was sure that Ouyang Xiu must have a way. Only he had enough cultivation to control the two of them.
Elder Qin closed his eyes in pain. He knew how much Gu Zheng had contributed and how much danger he had taken. You Xing had already told him everything.
However, at the crucial moment, he abandoned him. He didn't even dare to face him.
In fact, Gu Zheng also saw Elder Qin's body. He knew that the other side must have their own difficulties. Otherwise, they could have rushed out and killed this group of people. They wouldn't have stayed inside without any worries.
Now, he could only rely on himself.
Suddenly, he felt that he was lifted into the air. An irresistible force directly brought him into the sky. After a moment of dizziness, he finally landed heavily on the ground.
"Bang!"
Ouyang Ping slowly walked over and stopped in front of Gu Zheng.
"That traitor You Xing is dead. Now, no one can save you."
Gu Zheng felt a shock in his body. He couldn't help but cough out another mouthful of blood. He forced himself to sit up and looked at the proud Ouyang Ping.
Under the instructions of the person in charge, a few figures directly went to Gu Zheng's back and blocked Gu Zheng's path to prevent him from taking the opportunity to run into the water curtain.
Gu Zheng turned his head and saw that the fatty was among them. However, the fatty was pretending not to know him, just like the others.
If he came out like this, no one would know that he was with them.
This distance was enough to attack them. However, under Elder Qin's instructions, a few people stayed behind to watch over them. They began to send people out again. However, their eyes were always on Gu Zheng's side.
Now, more than 20 people had been sent out. Everyone had successfully left. This made everyone focus on recovering. They wanted to be the next one.
However, no one noticed that the blood flow in the sky was lower than before. The electric arcs outside the passage were jumping more frequently.
Not far from him, a few puppets had already started to attack Su Nan. It seemed that the other party didn't want Su Nan's life. They were just exhausting him. They relied on the number of puppets to directly fight with the other party.
Gu Zheng didn't need to look to know that it would be difficult for Su Nan to escape. Once he was close, he wouldn't be able to display his full strength. The end result would be him being captured alive. He had implicated him.
He was still resisting. Occasionally, he would glance at him. He didn't see any hatred or blame. It was just like what he said when he was joking.
"Whether we live or die, we can only rely on the blessings of the heavens. If I really die, please help me take care of the little bug. I won't blame you. This is my own choice. The only thing I can't let go of is the little bug."
At that time, the other party handed the little bug to him because he felt that Gu Zheng could protect it better than him.
"Are you reluctant to part with everything in this world? Don't worry, I'll burn you to ashes and scatter it all over this place. "Ouyang Ping controlled his strength and kicked Gu Zheng's shoulder.
"Elder Qin." Wu Xiaofeng and Ji Yi couldn't help but look at him at the same time.
Elder Qin shook his head slowly. He had explained to them through telepathy. They had seen You Xing with their own eyes and knew that Elder Qin was telling the truth. They could only suppress the anxiety in their hearts and hope that everything would come quickly.
"Wu Xiu, you're next."
"I want to go with brother." At this moment, Wu Xiu's eyes were filled with tears. She looked at Gu Zheng without blinking.
"No, you have to go now. Your brother can only find you and be with you." Elder Qin directly found a reason and signaled Wu Xiaofeng to quickly send his sister away.
Wu Xiaofeng was also trying to persuade her. In his heart, his sister was far more important than his own life.
In the end, he managed to persuade Wu Xiu. Seeing that she finally succeeded in passing through the passage, Wu Xiaofeng sighed in relief.
His last concern was also gone. He looked at Gu Zheng and hoped that a miracle would happen.
Gu Zheng was kicked away again. He spat out some blood from his mouth. The strange thing was that the blood didn't seep into the ground. Instead, it stuck close to the ground as if it was floating on the ground. However, no one noticed this at this moment.
He had a mocking expression on his face, as if he was mocking Ouyang Ping.
"Why didn't your people come to save you? Call them out. Have you been abandoned? You pitiful worm, abandoned after you've used up your value. Isn't it sad?"
"Hehe." Gu Zheng only replied with a mocking smile.
This Ouyang Ping was also a little impatient. He had tortured Ouyang Ping for such a long time just to attract Elder Qin out.
"Bang!"
Ouyang Ping sent him flying again. This time, Ouyang Ping was slightly more heavy-handed. If Elder Qin didn't come out, he was sure that Elder Qin wouldn't come out.
As far as he knew, Elder Qin was an Old Man with a soft heart. Furthermore, he had risked his life for them and had contributed a lot. Ouyang Ping didn't expect that he would be able to endure this time.
He felt that he was about to beat this brat to death, but Elder Qin was determined not to come out. It seemed that his thoughts had been seen through. If that was the case, this brat didn't need to stay in this world anymore.
After this, he would gather everyone and see if he had enough strength to cause trouble for Elder Qin.
At this moment, Gu Zheng's appearance was extremely miserable. He had almost spat out all the blood in his body. His breathing could be described as gossamer.
Right now, he was lying on the ground, motionless. There was only a weak life force in his body that could be extinguished at any time.
Su Nan looked at Gu Zheng with a sorrowful expression. She had also suffered heavy injuries. If Elder Qin hadn't shown mercy, she would have been seriously injured. However, she wouldn't be able to hold on for long and would be taken down by Elder Qin soon.
Even now, she didn't regret it. She just felt that she had let down Little Worm's request and even implicated Little Worm. She couldn't forgive herself for this.
"You, you go and capture him. While you're at it, feed him a pill. Don't let him die. Bring him back." Ouyang Ping casually pointed at the people behind him and said. He suddenly thought of Pan Xuan. If that person insisted on protecting him, she might really be able to spare his worthless life.
After thinking about it, she decided to spare his life. Don't let him die here.
Go back and see what Miss Pan said. This time, they were able to steal something from the central government. There must be something fishy about it. However, he didn't dare to investigate. He just had to do what he had to do. There was no need to complicate matters.
At this time, he was secretly praying that he would be able to survive.
Ouyang Ping turned around and walked towards Su Nan. Later, he would take back the things he stole.
The person in charge had already returned to the forest to recuperate. Everything here was under his control. Perhaps he could explore the secrets behind it.
Ouyang Ping was stunned by his own thoughts. He quickly shook his head. He still didn't want to die fast enough.
Gu Zheng really didn't have any strength at the moment. The pill that he had prepared was already in his hand, but he didn't have the strength to swallow it. It seemed that he had overestimated himself again. At the end of the day, it was the result of his severe injuries.
Ouyang Ping also heard what he said. He was really afraid that the other party would directly end his life here. As long as he waited a little longer and swallowed the pill, he would definitely teach the other party a lesson.
He was humiliated by the other party. If he didn't vent his anger, he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.
A figure appeared in front of him and quickly supported him.
Gu Zheng looked at the familiar face next to him and was a little surprised. He didn't expect it to be Fatty. His eyes lit up, and he quickly signaled with his eyes to his right hand.
Fatty saw that Gu Zheng had turned around and didn't notice this, so he secretly pulled him and quietly opened Gu Zheng's left hand. He actually took a pill from his hand.
This pill was given to Gu Zheng by Pan Xuan. He didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.
Although he didn't know the specific effects of this pill, looking at the reason why Gu Zheng asked him to open it, it was no surprise that he wanted to take it.
He directly touched his waist and pretended that he had taken it out. In any case, Sir Ouyang said that he would give the pill to Ou Yangming, so he just took it out openly and no one would suspect him.
He hurriedly put the pill into Gu Zheng's mouth. He was a little excited and was afraid that others would notice what he did just now, so he didn't see what pill it was. Then, he wanted to help Gu Zheng and continue to move forward.
However, in the next second, he realized that he couldn't move Ou Yangming. Ou Yangming's body was strong and nailed to the spot. It was completely different from before. He didn't look like a weak person at all.
At the same time, he felt an irresistible force coming from Ou Yangming's hand. He subconsciously shouted and flew toward Su Nan.
This attracted everyone's attention. Everyone's gazes turned to look at Gu Zheng, who was half-bowing.
Gu Zheng, who was on the verge of death just now, felt like he was going to die. Even Ouyang Ping wanted to keep him alive and gave him a pill. Now, looking at him, he was clearly a burning sun.
His vitality was so strong, and it was still increasing.
"What happened?" Ouyang Ping looked at the sudden change and couldn't help but frown.
No one knew. They only saw Zhu Feng help Ou Yangming up and give him a pill. Then, Zhu Feng was directly sent flying.
Gu Zheng suddenly straightened his body. His eyes were filled with a vast expanse of whiteness, as if there was an endless void within.
Ouyang Ping only felt a chill from his tailbone to his head. He felt cold all over as if an ancient fierce beast was waking up.
He couldn't let Ou Yangming go on like this. He had a feeling that something bad was going to happen. Ouyang Ping instantly made a decision in his heart.
This aura was only targeted at Ouyang Ping. The others only saw Gu Zheng rolling his eyes. Then, they realized that Sir Ouyang looked as if someone had stepped on his tail. He looked nervous.
He directly reached out his hand and a green light shot directly toward Gu Zheng's head, wanting to take his life.
He had completely forgotten what he said before. Now, he wanted to kill him immediately.
Gu Zheng opened his mouth slightly and spat out a gust of clear air. When the green light came into contact with it, it directly melted and blocked Ouyang Ping's determined attack.
"Sir, be careful behind you."
A few exclamations were heard. The blood on the ground suddenly floated up and emitted a strange red light. It rushed back toward Gu Zheng from all directions.
Ouyang Ke didn't want to test it himself. He directly dodged in the middle with a flash and widened the distance between him and Gu Zheng.
The blood directly gathered on top of Gu Zheng's head like a blood-red ball. It reflected a strange red color on Gu Zheng's face.
Gu Zheng kept muttering to himself. There were faint traces of silver light flickering in his eyes. His body began to emit a terrifying aura.
Rays of green light were released from Ouyang Ping's hand. However, when they approached Gu Zheng, a burst of five-colored light suddenly circulated outside his body and directly destroyed his opponent's attack.
This caused an uproar. Ouyang Ping was a Golden Immortal expert. He didn't show mercy, but he was blocked by his opponent's unknown defense.
Ouyang Ke felt the hair on his body stand on end. He felt that something bad was about to happen.
All of a sudden, the blood on top of Gu Zheng's head shattered. A drop of blood with a golden light appeared in the air, and the rest directly turned into a blood waterfall that poured on Gu Zheng's body.
What was even stranger was that the blood that fell on Gu Zheng's body flashed with a golden light and turned into golden scales on the outside. Some golden patterns decorated them and soon covered his entire body.
Immediately after, all the golden scales began to connect one by one and were inlaid on Gu Zheng's body. Some golden runes kept spinning outside.
From afar, Gu Zheng seemed to be wearing a golden rune robe. It was extremely strange.
At this moment, Ouyang Ping's attacks were continuous, but they were all blocked by his opponent. Nonetheless, his opponent clearly didn't make a move. It was as if there was a mysterious power between Heaven and Earth protecting him.
Ouyang Ping simply stopped his frequent attacks. He only used a small amount of light to keep probing when the protection would disappear.
He also hurriedly asked everyone to retreat. He wanted to see what tricks his opponent was playing.
The others retreated far away and watched this scene worriedly.
The drop of golden blood began to move and slowly walked into Gu Zheng's mouth.
Gu Zheng's eyes suddenly opened and closed as he stared at Ouyang Ping.
The silver-white pupils from before had disappeared, and they returned to their pitch-black pupils.
A shocking aura began to surge out of his body. At the same time, the injuries in his body were recovering at an unbelievable speed, and his strength was rising crazily.
