It was unknown what Chang Xi had done, but Shuang 'er's terrified scream suddenly rang out from the room.
When Gu Zheng heard this, his originally smiling face instantly turned cold.
"Bang!" Before Shuang 'er's voice had even faded, Gu Zheng had kicked open the door and immediately walked in.
"What are you doing? Stop!"
Although he had already thought of helping Elder Su and the others, he had only wanted to cripple the other party and leave him with his life. But now, he actually dared to threaten Shuang 'er.
It could be said that Gu Zheng had already given him a death sentence in his heart. When he left the village, it would be the day that the other party's life ended.
At this time, Shuang 'er was standing in a corner with a pale face. When Chang Xi, who was slowly approaching, heard the loud noise, he subconsciously turned around and saw Gu Zheng walking in with a gloomy face. There was also a cute pet standing on his shoulder. It was unknown why it was following him, but looking at the other party's angry appearance, it was obvious that it had heard their conversation.
When Shuang 'er saw that Gu Zheng had returned, a trace of joy flashed in her eyes. She quickly rushed out from the corner and hid behind Gu Zheng.
In fact, she had already heard that Gu Zheng had returned, so everything before was just Chang Xi. In fact, she was not afraid of him. If not for the fact that she was afraid of causing trouble for Gu Zheng, she would have already knocked him down with a punch.
"Young Master Gu, be careful. He wants to harm you." Although she knew that Gu Zheng was not afraid of him, Shuang 'er still could not help but warn him.
"Don't worry. With me here, no one will dare to bully you." Gu Zheng softly comforted.
"Gu Zheng, right?" Chang Xi crossed his arms, an impatient expression on his face. "I advise you to be tactful. Don't throw away your life for unrelated people."
Although they were brother and sister, the younger sister had always called her brother Young Master Gu. There was clearly something fishy going on. Since they were not real siblings, it was much easier to deal with.
"Haha, there are many people who want to take my life. But no matter what, it is not something that a stupid person like you can take." Gu Zheng laughed when he heard this and could not help but mock.
"Stupid? Ever since I was born, I have never heard anyone say those words to me. Since you have successfully angered me, I will first break one of your arms and let you know how powerful I am. When that time comes, Miss Shuang 'er will naturally know what to do. "Chang Xi's eyes flashed with a fierce light as he looked at Shuang' er.
Although he hadn't noticed Gu Zheng's arrival earlier, he had been completely focused on Shuang 'er. In addition, the other party had a certain foundation, so he hadn't noticed.
Previously, he had already fought with the most powerful person among the newcomers, who was known as the Jin Xian Initial Stage Almighty. However, after only five moves, he was knocked down by one of Ye Xiwen's moves on the shoulder. He was really weak.
No matter how strong Gu Zheng was, he was very confident that he could take him down within twenty moves at most.
Therefore, as soon as his voice fell, Chang Xi's figure rushed forward. At the same time, he reached out his right hand to grab Gu Zheng's right arm, wanting to catch the other party off guard.
Such a short distance, he arrived beside Gu Zheng in the blink of an eye. With a fierce gust of wind, it was obvious that he wanted to crush Gu Zheng's right arm.
Before Gu Zheng could move, the cute pet on his shoulder let out a low growl and actually pounced towards Chang Xi. Moreover, it was aiming for the other party's head. Its sharp claws flashed with a cold light. If this attack landed, even if Gu Zheng's arm was broken, his head would be crushed by the other party.
Seeing this scene, Chang Xi didn't need to think to know what to do. He came to a sudden stop and then retreated, dodging the other party's sharp claws.
"You beast, my village kindly took you in, but you actually dare to help an outsider." Chang Xi said in a flustered and exasperated manner. How could he have thought that this cute pet would be able to help him?
"How did you bewitch him to make him protect you like this?"
At this time, the cute pet was still floating in the air with its teeth bared, looking as if it was threatening the other party.
Chang Xi knew how powerful it was. Although it looked cute, its combat strength was incomparable. And once it spat out a piece of green crystal, he was sure that other than the Lunar Beast and the Qilin Beast, no one would be a match for it.
Of course, even now, Chang Xi was not a match for it.
"How would I know? It insists on following me. What can I do?" Gu Zheng looked at all of this and pretended to shrug. Chang Xi was almost angered to death.
But no one here could command the other. More importantly, this fellow was immune to the green mist here. It even ate it as food. If it wasn't for the fact that it didn't hurt people, there would be no one here.
"What kind of man are you? If you have the ability, fight me one-on-one. This thing can't always be by your side." Chang Xi said sarcastically.
"Is that so?" Gu Zheng's face revealed a mocking smile. "Are you sure you want to fight me one-on-one?" At the same time, he secretly gave Shuang 'er a look.
"Of course. Let's see if you dare or not." Chang Xi didn't think there was anything wrong with this. Instead, he looked very confident. As long as the other party made the creature move, he would definitely teach him a lesson.
"Why wouldn't I dare?" Gu Zheng said casually. As soon as he finished speaking, his body suddenly flashed left and right. In an instant, three afterimages appeared and rushed towards the other party.
Chang Xi was shocked. He punched each of his hands in the air, and at the same time, he raised a leg and kicked the shadow in the middle. However, the moment they came into contact, the three shadows all collapsed and disappeared without a trace.
"Where did he go?" Chang Xi's heart flashed with a trace of doubt. At this time, he was no longer in front of him.
At that moment, a pair of hands silently reached out from behind him. Before he could react, they grabbed his neck. A cold feeling came from his Adam's apple, causing his entire body to stand on end.
"It's best if you don't move. I can't control my strength. If I accidentally kill you, then my temporary residence will be gone." A terrifying voice sounded from behind him, causing his entire body to stiffen. He didn't dare to move at all, afraid that the other party would accidentally kill him.
He didn't even notice how the other party appeared behind him. The other party's speed was too fast. At this time, he wanted to learn celestial techniques. As long as he learned celestial techniques, the other party wouldn't be able to break through his defense.
"You're really obedient. However, just now, you said that you would break my arm for a day. It's impolite not to look at it and not come. Then I'll only take one of your arms. Okay, I'll teach you a lesson." Gu Zheng said softly, but his words made Chang Xi shiver.
Gu Zheng's other hand shot out like lightning and hit Chang Xi's elbow. Even if Chang Xi wanted to resist ten thousand times in his heart, and even if he rehearsed it countless times in his heart, he couldn't dodge the other party's attack no matter how hard he tried. He could only endure and not do anything useless.
He swore in his heart that he would definitely teach this guy a lesson.
Gu Zheng pulled and pulled, and a crisp sound rang out. Chang Xi's arm was instantly removed. The intense pain caused Chang Xi's sweat to appear. Soon, his entire body was drenched. However, Chang Xi only let out a muffled groan. No matter how much pain he was in, he couldn't make a sound.
This tenacity caused Gu Zheng to raise his eyebrows. One must know that he had deliberately increased the strength of his attack. He knew the strength of his attack very well. He didn't expect the other party to be able to withstand it. However, Gu Zheng couldn't be bothered to bicker with him.
"Did you hear that? If you dare to come here again, I'll break the other arm. If you dare to harass Shuang 'er again, I think you can imagine the consequences. I don't need to say more." Gu Zheng threatened fiercely. Then, he pushed Chang Xi out.
Chang Xi staggered and almost fell. However, he didn't say anything. He only looked at Gu Zheng with hatred and said coldly.
"I really misjudged. I didn't expect the other party to have such strength. I admit defeat. In the future, I will definitely not disturb you brother and sister." After Chang Xi finished speaking, he hugged his other arm and ran out of the room in a sorry state.
"Young Master Chang, where are you going?" Suddenly, a familiar female voice came from outside. She was very surprised.
"Scram." A cold snort sounded. Then, the sound of the other party running away could be heard. Soon, she disappeared.
Then, a few people came to Gu Zheng's door. Han Xiu's voice came from outside.
"Senior Gu, do you have time?"
"Come in." Gu Zheng sat to the side. Next to him was a cup of tea that Shuang 'er had just brought out. It was still steaming.
Han Xiu and two other people who she didn't know walked in together. Han Xiu glanced at it calmly. It was obviously not the tea here. She didn't show a trace of surprise on her face. However, the other two immortals were shocked. They didn't think of this and their faces were full of shock.
"Senior Gu, before this, my daughter didn't know senior's identity and was rash. Thank you very much for saving my life." Han Xiu was very, very humble. She thanked him again.
Previously, she didn't know Gu Zheng's identity. However, after the others told her, she was shocked. Especially after seeing his great power on the city wall, she felt that he was extraordinary.
This time, they also lost two people. Moreover, they found that although this village couldn't be considered bad, it was clearly cold. This was especially true for the female cultivators. They looked at everyone greedily, making them tremble. Han Xiu felt the same.
Because at this time, she had already received a few hints. Some were threats, some were implicit, but the meaning was obvious. This group of people didn't feel safe at all.
After knowing that Han Xiu and Gu Zheng had a few connections, two people recommended to come with Han Xiu. They were prepared to discuss with Gu Zheng. Because of Gu Zheng's strength, he would definitely be valued. With his protection, it would be better.
And this was what the two behind Han Xiu said. They quickly took out two somewhat tattered food boxes. However, they also begged for a long time to get this.
"Senior Gu, this is the meat of the Qilin beast they gave you. I know you may have already eaten it, but it may only have one effect on them. But for us, if we eat more, it will definitely increase the effect. This is a small token of respect." The man smiled flatteringly and put the two food boxes on the stone table.
"Speak. What's the matter?" Gu Zheng didn't open the food box. For him, it was useless. Because no matter how much he ate, under the suppression of the rules here, it couldn't produce Immortal Qi at all. At most, it could strengthen his body a little.
After his body had evil power, it was not very useful for Gu Zheng.
As for Shuang 'er, she had already received a lot of benefits before. Her magic power had at least recovered to the fifth tier of the human realm. It was impossible for her to go any further. This was also the reason why Gu Zheng wasn't worried about Shuang' er at all. Shuang 'er alone could beat the other party to a pulp. He also knew what she was thinking.
"It's like this." Han Xiu looked at her companions behind her. This was also what they had agreed on before.
Han Xiu quickly told her worries. She wanted Gu Zheng to take care of them more in the future.
Although they all came to snatch that treasure before, they were all on the same side now. In the future, everyone would definitely do their best to work for him.
After she finished speaking, she saw Gu Zheng drinking tea leisurely. He didn't touch his things at all. She was a little nervous as she waited for the other party's answer.
In the end, Gu Zheng's words made their faces change.
"If that's really what you think, then I'm sorry. I can't do it." Gu Zheng put down the tea and said seriously.
"Why?" Han Xiu blurted out. If it was because they came to snatch the treasure, but they didn't start the rescue and got involved here, it shouldn't be.
"Can't we stick together?" A man behind her asked in disbelief. He didn't seem to understand why Gu Zheng said that. Their group already treated him as the leader. Wasn't that enough?
"No, you misunderstood me. It's not that I don't want to help you. It's very likely that I'll be leaving this place in a few days." Gu Zheng said apologetically. If he really stayed here, this small matter would be no problem at all. But he was confident that he could get out. Why should he spend the rest of his life here?
"What? Senior, don't take the risk. Not to mention the demonic beasts along the way, you should know that if you're not careful, you'll die. I think it's better to stay here." Another man behind him quickly said, as if he was thinking for the senior.
Gu Zheng looked at them and shook his head slowly. He didn't say anything. He just pointed to the things in front of him and said, "You can take them away. Give them more to eat. At least their situation will be better."
Seeing Gu Zheng's insistence, the two men behind him looked at each other, but in the end, they didn't step forward. They just cupped their hands and said, "Thank you, senior. But everyone has more or less eaten. These are the proof of our gratitude."
They were telling the truth. Because of Gu Zheng's great power, at least their meals were much better. Otherwise, they might not even have a portion of the Kirin Beast's meat soup this time. Although there was less meat and more soup, it still strengthened each of them a lot.
After they finished speaking, they directly left. Since Gu Zheng didn't work here, they had to think of other ways.
But Han Xiu didn't leave. Instead, she stared at Gu Zheng. After making sure that her people were far away, she closed the door and asked quietly.
"Senior Gu, do you have a way to get out of here?"
"Yes, I've decided to leave here." Gu Zheng nodded and admitted generously.
"Really? Senior Gu, you've heard about the situation here. There's no hope of escape at all. Even if it's just a few words, I know that I can't do it. "Han Xiu said with burning eyes.
"And since you came in, you've been calm and unhurried. Obviously, you're quite confident about leaving here. Can't you take me with you? As long as you want something, I'll absolutely listen to you. "In the end, Han Xiu directly opened the window and said.
Because although she wasn't as beautiful as the one next to her, she had her own preferences.
Her words caused Shuang 'er to become incomparably angry. She glared at her and wanted to slap this shameless woman to death right here.
But Han Xiu really went all out. She didn't want to die here alone hundreds of years later. Moreover, she had to work tirelessly. She was very scared when she thought about it.
Although cultivation was very difficult, but after entering the Celestial Immortal Realm, everything became beautiful. It was easy to go from simplicity to luxury, and difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
"I'm not married yet. Don't worry about this. You can treat me like a maid in the future." Han Xiu saw that Gu Zheng still didn't say anything. She simply lifted her collar, revealing half of her body in an arc in front of Gu Zheng. Half of her chest was almost exposed.
Han Xiu revealed her smooth and sleek arm. The red "Chastity Sand" was very conspicuous. Especially Han Xiu's bright red eyes, it gave people a delicate and pitiful feeling.
Although Shuang 'er cursed her for being a slut countless times in her heart, she still didn't say anything. She only kept looking at Gu Zheng. No matter what she chose, she wouldn't go against his opinion.
After Gu Zheng heard Han Xiu's words, he slightly frowned and immediately said, "Put away your clothes first. Don't put on a pitiful look. Do you think it's useful? This will only make me more disgusted. "
Han Xiu saw that Gu Zheng seemed to be really angry. She quickly put on her clothes and returned to her previous appearance. But she still looked at the other party with a pitiful look.
"Fellow Daoist Han, since you really want to go out, but I really have no way to bring you out. Because you know how powerful the Bottomless Cave is. Even if I protect you outside, there are still some checkpoints that you have to face alone. For example, the Illusory Fog. This checkpoint is not easy. Moreover, there are even more dangerous Lunar Beasts. I can't even protect myself. If you follow me, you will only die faster. "Gu Zheng finished his words in one breath. To be honest, he admired her for wanting to struggle. When the others heard this, they were almost desperate. They didn't even have the courage to resist.
When they came here, it was as if they had accepted their fate. They only wanted to live a peaceful life. At least, it was better than trying to break through here. The chances of death were close to ten.
"But how could she." When Han Xiu heard this, her face turned pale. Gu Zheng's words were very reasonable, but when she saw Shuang 'er's proud face, she suddenly blurted it out.
As soon as she spoke, she realized that she had said something wrong. She quickly apologized, "I'm sorry. I was too excited. I'm sorry."
"Why should I? Of course I rely on my ability." At this time, Shuang 'er finally retorted. A layer of faint light appeared on one hand, while different things repeatedly appeared on the other hand. There was a proud smile on her face.
Han Xiu looked at this scene and was stunned. How could she not know what this meant? The other party actually still had magic power. Moreover, the things in the storage space could be taken out at any time. No wonder the other party was so confident. She should have guessed it when she saw the cup of tea.
Because when a man went out to gain experience, except for special people, why would they prepare such elegant things?
