"Okay, wait for me to come out." Young Master Qi said calmly. He then turned to Shuang 'er, who had just put down the teacup in her hand, and said, "How is it? This is something I personally researched. You can't drink this outside at all. This tea is extremely rare."
"Young Master Qi, Shuang 'er has indeed never drunk such refreshing and special tea before. Shuang' er has never traveled far from home since she was young. These days, the things you have given Shuang 'er, I have never seen them before." Shuang' er leisurely said.
"Hehe, it's fine. You can have as many of these things as you want in the future. Actually, the conditions here are simple. I'm afraid it won't catch your eye." Young Master Qi waved his hand and said.
Young Master Qi stood up and walked forward to open the curtain and said to the girl in front of him, "Come with me and see what's going on up ahead."
Shuang 'er didn't say anything. She just stood up from the soft cushion and walked out with her head slightly lowered.
Her whole body was emitting a white light. It was dreamy and illusory. She just floated in the air like that. Looking down from the sky, other than the strange phenomenon not far in front of her, the other places were lush green and full of vitality.
Young Master Qi followed closely behind her. Looking at the flower-like side profile in front of him, a gentle expression appeared on his face. But if you looked closely at his eyes, you would find that there was only calmness in them. It seemed to be very disharmonious with the expression on his face.
"Little Guan, are you sure this is the place?"
The man in front who was warning the surroundings quickly recovered and said, "According to that person's map, this is the place in front of us."
"En, then it seems that the road was delayed for some time. But it's not too late. I came at the right time. I hope those people know what's good for them and don't snatch my things." Looking at the figures below, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
This thing was originally discovered by him hundreds of thousands of years ago. But at that time, it was still very young. He had purposely placed a mountain outside to cover it.
He thought that after hundreds of thousands of years, it had already perfectly blended in with the mountains. Who would have thought that there was another world inside an ordinary mountain? Moreover, he would send people to observe it every few tens of thousands of years. He remembered that when he reported last time, everything was normal.
He didn't expect that he would be late this time and didn't arrive before it matured, causing it to trigger such a strange phenomenon. It actually caused so many people to fight over it.
"Young Master Qi, do you want us to chase those people away?" Little Guan said from the side.
"Chase them away? You can't do it. There are at least two incomparably powerful people down there. You'll only be throwing your lives away if you go up. " Young Master Qi shook his head. His sharp eyes were now emitting a faint golden light, as if he could see through the strange fluctuations and see the situation below.
However, a powerful energy quickly repelled his divine sense. When he looked again, it was as if there was a layer of mist separating him. He was unable to see clearly. It seemed this person didn't welcome him.
"You guys wait here. If there's anything, I'll call for you," Young Master Qi said with a meaningful look.
Xiao Guan nodded and retreated to the side.
Shuang 'er looked at this scene and could not understand his actions. He was clearly so powerful, but the guards protecting him were so weak.
In other words, Young Master Qi could kill these seemingly powerful guards with a single finger. Perhaps this was a habit cultivated in the big clans, to act as a facade.
"However, it seems that someone has already started to get their hands on your things." Shuang 'er looked at the ever-changing dark clouds below and pressed down another layer. Bolts of lightning were already striking down on the mountain peak. Everywhere they passed, those unprepared Little Goblin would be turned into charcoal.
Even those Heavenly Immortal realm beings could not withstand a few consecutive bolts of lightning. Soon, some of them felt that they could not get their hands on the treasures and had already retreated.
However, there were still quite a number of people who withstood the attacks and approached the mountain peak. These people had some special abilities, and were not bothered by the bolts of lightning in the sky.
"No hurry. This is good. How can this thing be refined so easily? Seems like someone knows about it. By the time they succeed in refining it, their strength will be less than ten percent, and it'll be easier to snatch it," Young Master Qi's eyes shone. This was also the reason why he was not in a hurry.
"But, what if they don't return it to you?" Shuang 'er looked at the battle below.
"If they don't know what's good for them and don't hand it over, I'll just destroy them," Young Master Qi's tone was filled with dominance. It was completely different from the gentleness from before.
Shuang 'er looked at Young Master Qi before her and did not feel surprised. That was because this was his personality. He was domineering and would not allow others to refuse him.
However, this Young Master Qi did indeed have the strength to say that. Even though he looked young, according to what she knew, he already had such a cultivation over a million years ago. As for his bodyguard, he only had the cultivation of a Heavenly Immortal, which was only slightly stronger than her.
Even though she had also been fed something by him and was given a cultivation technique, allowing her to reach the cultivation of a Heavenly Immortal in a short few years, she was not happy at all. That was because she knew, she knew very well.
Even though he was gentle and considerate to her on the surface, and cared for her, his ultimate goal was very clear. She had already guessed it.
She wanted to raise herself to the Jin Xian Realm at all costs, and then use herself as a cauldron for his cultivation to take a step further. Who asked her to unintentionally eat something that had already fused with her? In the end, even though she was saved by him, she was also trapped by him.
However, before that, she was still very safe. However, she did not dare to do anything excessive for fear of angering him. She could only treat him with indifference and hope that there would be a turn for the better in the future. Now, all of this was not what she wanted. Even though she knew that this was something that would happen hundreds of thousands of years later.
After she had become a Heavenly Immortal, she knew that she had completely bid farewell to her past. In the past, she estimated that she would die in a hundred years, but now, her lifespan had increased by more than ten times.
"Let's go. I want to see what kind of god is down there that can actually block my consciousness." Young Master Qi said calmly. At the same time, his body began to descend.
Shuang 'er knew that he was talking to her. She had no choice but to follow closely behind him and descend together.
.....
In an empty space below, there seemed to be no one. However, a golden light descended from the sky and instantly landed on an empty space.
Before it could get close, a white shadow suddenly drilled out from the ground. He waved the jade ruler in his hand and with a clank, the small sword in the sky was sent flying.
However, the jade ruler that was already somewhat dim unavoidably revealed a trace of crack after sending the opponent flying again. The white shadow did not have time to feel sorry for it as his body flew to the other side again.
However, he had only taken a few steps when a figure appeared in front of him.
"Fellow Daoist, why do you have to kill me? Otherwise, I'll fight to the death. You should know that there will be others coming here soon. You won't be able to stop them." The white shadow's face was filled with panic as he said to the figure in front of him.
"No. You've already deceived me once. This time, I won't let you go." The one who blocked his path was Gu Zheng. He had already dealt with the entrance of the cave. At the very least, the power of a Heavenly Immortal would not be able to break through it in a short period of time.
The white shadow's cultivation base was only at the early stage of Jin Xian. Yet, he was already so arrogant. Gu Zheng did not even put in much effort. The white shadow was also greatly disturbed here. Gu Zheng directly launched a few sneak attacks on the white shadow, causing the other party to drop his arrogant face. However, who would have thought that the white shadow would actually deceive him. After turning around, he took out a treasure from outside and entered again.
This time, Gu Zheng did not hold back at all. He directly attacked the white shadow head-on. He did not expect the white shadow to be weaker than he had imagined. It was as if he had just been promoted to the Jin Xian stage.
This was probably his first battle in the Jin Xian stage. No wonder the white shadow was so arrogant.
The shockwaves from the battle naturally caused a huge commotion. Almost 90% of the people had already retreated. With the arrival of senior Jin Xian, it could be said that there was almost no hope for them.
This was also Gu Zheng's goal.
The white shadow looked at Gu Zheng's determined eyes. He knew that he might not be able to escape. A ruthless look appeared on his face. The jade ruler in his hand shone brightly. A powerful aura surged out from his body. He quickly rushed towards Gu Zheng.
He was already going all out. Even his strongest concealment magic had lost its effect. He had also suffered heavy injuries. His opponent's cultivation base was also one level higher than his. It could be said that if his opponent did not treat him well, he would not be able to escape.
Now, he had the idea of perishing together with his opponent. Even if he died, he would not let his opponent have a good time.
Gu Zheng looked at the white shadow who had completely lost his mind. He sighed softly. If he had more time to train in the Jin Xian stage, he would not have let Gu Zheng have it so easy.
A cold light flashed in the air, and a light shadow instantly pierced through the opponent's defense, passing through the opponent's back. The opponent's figure in the air abruptly stopped, and he saw a bowl-sized hole in his chest, and the red heart in the middle had disappeared.
Feeling a violent energy expanding in his body, his lips moved a few times, but in the end, he couldn't say anything. With a loud bang, he exploded into a pile of minced meat. He couldn't be more dead. The jade ruler flew out and stabbed into the ground.
Gu Zheng did not look at it. He stretched out his hand and the light returned to Gu Zheng's hand. It turned into a pen. Gu Zheng did not put it away. Instead, he continued to hold it in his hand. This was because an uninvited guest was about to come.
If it was a normal day, Gu Zheng might have really let the other party go. But just now, there was an imperceptible Divine Sense spying on him. He was almost shocked.
From what he felt, it turned out to be a late Jin Xian stage character. He did not expect such a powerful character to appear now. This made him secretly complain.
He did not know how the other party appeared here so quickly. Maybe they just happened to pass by. But now that the other party had come down, it seemed like the other party did not come with good intentions.
Therefore, Gu Zheng did not waste time with the other party. He directly killed the white shadow. Even if he was very weak, if he really wanted to fight with the other party, the white shadow would cause trouble. He had no chance of winning.
Now he could concentrate on dealing with the other party. Even if the other party was a peak Jin Xian, Gu Zheng would not be afraid.
Relying on his few Black Demons, it was enough to deal with the other party.
"It would be better if it was a few days later." A thought flashed in Gu Zheng's mind. This way, he could unlock another layer of the seal. It would be a lot easier.
Now, he could only hope that no more Golden Immortals would come. What made him even more uneasy was that the Golden Immortal who first came in had disappeared again after a short exposure. This time, he had completely lost track of him. He didn't know if he had left this place or if he had hidden himself.
But his face was calm. He turned and flew toward the cave entrance that he was guarding. Because someone was about to land there.
Above the sky, two figures were quickly flying toward the mountain peak. Those lightning bolts that constantly appeared in the sky. Once they struck each other, a layer of faint white shield would automatically appear on their bodies. The powerful lightning bolts hit the shield, but unexpectedly, it did not have any effect.
It could only set off a trace of fluctuation. The people inside did not even look at it and continued to descend.
The people who were still on the ground showed a surprised look. Countless Divine Sense looked up, wanting to see who was so powerful.
"Hmph!"
Feeling countless weak Divine Sense probing back and forth on his body, Young Master Qi coldly snorted. Everyone's ears suddenly rang, and they felt dizzy. A few people even fainted.
Young Master Qi felt that the world had become a lot quieter. At the same time, the two people landed in front of the hillside. He looked at the incomparably simple enchantment in front of him with disdain on his face. However, he did not break the enchantment. Instead, he stood in front of it, as if waiting for something.
When Gu Zheng arrived, he saw the backs of two people. Moreover, the woman's back seemed somewhat familiar. It was as if he had seen her somewhere before.
"What are the two Dao Friends' surnames? I wonder what the two of you are here for?" Gu Zheng asked behind them.
"My surname is not important. But this friend, are you guarding your friend inside?" Young Master Qi turned around, and the golden light in his eyes slowly dissipated. He had already seen the situation inside, and he was somewhat cautious.
"Yes, this Dao Friend. We have been guarding this place for a long time. I hope that no one will misunderstand." Gu Zheng looked at the confident expression of the other party and said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
"I'm afraid this friend is not telling the truth. I have placed restrictions on this thing hundreds of thousands of years ago. Otherwise, why would it be placed in the belly of the mountain?" Young Master Qi's eyes flashed with a trace of coldness as he said without any trace of politeness.
Gu Zheng really did not know about this, and Yuan Li did not tell him how he found out. However, even if it was done by the other party, now that Yuan Li had refined it, there was no way he would give it up.
"Your Excellency is a little too much. There is no proof. I can also say that I deliberately made it like this hundreds of thousands of years ago. Do you have any evidence?" Gu Zheng said slowly. However, his gaze was fixed on the woman's back because he felt that he knew her.
When Young Master Qi heard this, his face immediately turned gloomy because he really did not leave any evidence behind. However, the other party's lack of tact had already aroused the anger in his heart.
However, these two Jin Xian Middle Stage people were not tactful at all. Furthermore, one of them was still refining it and could not get out.
"Friend, you are going too far. However, if you are willing to obey my orders and become my subordinates, it is not impossible for me to hand over this item." Young Master Qi sneered. With his hands behind his back, he said something that caused Gu Zheng to become furious.
"I'm going too far? If you really want to take it away, just say it. Why do you have to humiliate me like this? " Gu Zheng's face turned stiff as he said sternly. He did not feel any fear because of the other party's cultivation base.
At this moment, the woman finally turned her head and revealed her beautiful face.
Gu Zheng subconsciously glanced at her before retracting his gaze and looking at Young Master Qi in front of him.
However, in the next second, Gu Zheng's face was filled with shock. He turned his gaze back and called out subconsciously.
"Shuang 'er!"
Shuang 'er's body trembled as well. Her face was filled with astonishment.
Initially, she had wanted to persuade the other party to give up on this thing. She did not want to lose her life for this treasure.
How could she not know how strong Young Master Qi was? In her impression, there was no one who could match up to him. Even if she were to become an Immortal, she would still feel like an ant when she looked at the other party.
However, she had not expected to see Gu Zheng right now. Even though there were some slight changes from a few years ago, she could still recognize him with a single look.
To be honest, she had missed Xue 'er and Gu Zheng after they left. Not only had they brought about a tremendous change to her life, they had also allowed her to live a stable life. If not for the appearance of Young Master Qi, she might have just stayed in that pharmacy for the rest of her life.
"Young Master Gu!"
Shuang 'er shouted out emotionally. She had many things she wanted to say to him and Xue' er. However, she was so emotional that she could only shout out this sentence.
Gu Zheng looked at Shuang 'er's cultivation. He had not expected her to change so much in such a short period of time. She was much prettier than before. There was also an additional light aura around her. Looking at the gloomy Young Master Qi beside him, it seemed like this had something to do with him.
"Come here. I'll protect you." Gu Zheng gestured for Shuang 'er to come over. However, Shuang' er took a step back and said to Young Master Qi beside him.
"Young Master Qi, can you not hurt her? At most, I'll go with you. I'll do whatever you say."
Looking at Shuang 'er, who usually did not smile at him, pleading for this man before him, he did not even think about how a mortal would know someone like Jin Xian. He only felt that his face was being cut off.
"Originally, I could have let her live. But now, there's no chance of that at all." Young Master Qi said angrily. With a wave of his hand, Shuang 'er's entire body was surrounded by a golden shield. She was then brought away.
"You dare to kidnap Shuang 'er?!" Gu Zheng's face turned gloomy. He had thought that Shuang 'er was still in that small town's medical hall. Perhaps, she was already married. He had wanted to save Shuang' er and visit her again. Unexpectedly, she was taken away by someone else. Otherwise, if the other party came here, he would never be able to see her again.
Strands of killing intent surged out from his body. His gaze towards Young Master Qi was not polite at all. His entire body was tense. He was not afraid of the other party at all.
"Haha, good, very good." Seeing the other party's eyes filled with killing intent, Young Master Qi laughed. The cold light in his eyes grew even brighter.
"Don't hit me! Young Master Gu, be careful!" Shuang 'er, who was being forced to leave, shouted from within the golden sphere. Unfortunately, only she could hear her voice. Not a single sound could be transmitted out from the golden sphere.
However, the worried expression on her face still warmed Gu Zheng's heart. At the same time, it also caused Young Master Qi's rage to boil.
"Remember, don't blame me when you go to hell!" Young Master Qi shouted. Just as the word 'me' left his mouth, a blue beam of light abruptly shot out from his mouth.
