Qi Xiang flew upwards in a hurry, because the fake "Xue 'er" was probably standing together with Gu Zheng at this moment. He was really afraid that if he was a step late, the fake "Xue' er" would explode and cause great damage to Gu Zheng and the others.
Therefore, he flew as fast as he could. In just a few breaths, he had already crossed the mountainside. He followed Gu Zheng's path and broke open the collapsed tunnels again.
When the two of them emerged from the passageway, they happened to see the black barrier in front of them dissipate, revealing the figures of Gu Zheng, Yuan Li, and the others.
Xue 'er was being carried on Gu Zheng's back, protecting her tightly.
Luckily, they weren't too late.
After such a long period of high-intensity attacks, even the Demon Race took a breather and temporarily stopped their attacks. They thought that they had broken the shield, but in fact, it was because the time was up and the shield had automatically dissipated.
"Xing Cai? Why are you here? Have you recovered from your injuries? You even made progress. Congratulations! "Gu Zheng looked at Qi Xiang and the other person who appeared behind him. His eyes widened as he spoke with joy.
"Thanks to your good fortune, I was able to take another step forward this time. As soon as I came out of seclusion, I heard about you from Elder Mo, so I came all the way here to see if I could help you. After all, you've helped us a lot," Xing Cai said with a smile.
Of course, this wasn't the only reason. She also needed Gu Zheng to go back with her and help her. She was sure that once she returned home, she would be locked up and wouldn't be able to go out. However, the person she liked was still waiting for her at home. She only hoped that he could cooperate with her to help her.
"That's what I should do. No matter what, I'm still thankful that you're here!" Gu Zheng smiled faintly.
Qi Xiang and the others were already close to Gu Zheng. While the Goblin side was surrounding them and hadn't attacked yet, Qi Xiang said to Gu Zheng through his aura.
"Young Master Gu, why don't I help you protect Miss Xue 'er? I have a defensive treasure that General Lei gave me this time. It can't be broken by anyone. It's the best way to protect her!"
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you!" Gu Zheng thought about it for a moment, and felt that it was very suitable. If he brought Snow with him, then it would be the same as having a rope tied around his body. Facing such a powerful enemy, the slightest mistake would put him in a desperate situation.
"Young Master Gu, hurry up. The other party is about to come up." Qi Xiang urged, but his body was already tense, ready to stop the fake Xue 'er at any time.
As for Xing Cai, he had already made arrangements along the way so that she wouldn't give herself away.
Perhaps the fake Xue 'er knew that once she was protected, she wouldn't have any chance to attack. At this moment, she actually woke up and looked around in confusion.
"Where am I?"
By now, Gu Zheng had already handed Xue 'er over to Qi Xiang. Just as he was about to place her on the ground, a blue light flashed in Qi Xiang's hand, and a crystal-like shell appeared in his hand. It suddenly grew larger, and like a ferocious beast, it opened its shell and' swallowed 'Xue' er whole.
"What happened?" Gu Zheng looked at Qi Xiang in shock. He had never thought that Qi Xiang would forcefully protect Xue 'er.
"Save me! Save me! " Xue 'er slapped the shell weakly, and looked at Gu Zheng with watery eyes, hoping that he would let her out.
"Hmph, you're still pretending at this time. Let's see how long you're going to pretend for!" Qi Xiang looked at the locked up Xue 'er and said coldly.
Seeing Gu Zheng's puzzled look, Qi Xiang took out his weapon and stood beside Gu Zheng. At the same time, he told Gu Zheng and the others about what he had encountered. Xing Cai also came to their side and told Gu Zheng about what she had encountered outside.
Gu Zheng finally knew the whole story. He didn't expect so many things to happen in such a short time. Shuang 'er and the others had also come over, and by some strange combination of factors, they had broken through their great formation. This was really beyond Gu Zheng's expectations.
At this time, under the illumination of the shell, the real Xue 'er could no longer support the transformation and had turned into a white snake. The black teeth were particularly eye-catching. Although her cultivation was only at the late stage of the Sky Immortal Realm, the transformed Xue' er was actually not recognized by Gu Zheng.
Seeing that the other party was still trying to escape from the shell, Gu Zheng's back was covered in cold sweat. Fortunately, Qi Xiang had taken the wrong path and rescued the real Xue 'er. Otherwise, Gu Zheng wouldn't know what to do. He had come here for Xue' er, but in the end, the other party had deceived him.
"I thank you on behalf of our Snow Mountain disciples!" Yuan Li said gratefully after knowing that most of his disciples were safe and sound.
"Don't say so much, the other party is already here."
Gu Zheng said to everyone. At this time, everyone on the opposite side was also above, facing Gu Zheng face to face.
Although the number of people on their side was less than one-third of the other party's, each of them was very strong. Apart from a few of them who were at the middle stage of the Jin Xian Realm, all of them were at the late stage and peak stage of the Jin Xian Realm.
In terms of combat strength, they were about the same as when they had eliminated the Goblin in the past. However, at that time, they had a lot of people, but most of them were only at the early stage of the Jin Xian Realm.
On the other hand, the Goblin's side was exactly the opposite of theirs. It seemed to be the reverse of the past. There were more low-level and middle-level cultivators, but their high-end strength was much higher than Gu Zheng's side.
This was especially so for the Great Elder and the people from the Asura Clan. Their combat strength was simply off the charts. Among them, only Gu Zheng could fight against them. However, even if he fought against the two people on the opposite side, even Gu Zheng believed that he could barely hold them back. When the rest of the people were finished, they would deal with them together.
Therefore, for both sides, this was a battle of life and death where they couldn't be distracted.
"Good, good. It seems like this is your hidden strength. No wonder you dared to barge in!" The Great Elder, who was walking at the front, laughed as he saw the other side looking at him cautiously.
"Your end is near. This time, I will completely eradicate all of you!" Bo Xu shouted as he pointed at the Great Elder.
"Haha, I have some impression of you. I remember that your good friend died in my hands. It's a pity that you didn't dare to take revenge. You're just a coward!" The Great Elder snorted coldly.
"You …" Bo Xu was so angry that he wanted to fight to the death with the other party, but he was pulled back by the twin sisters behind him.
"Don't talk nonsense. I want to see how strong a peerless Big Goblin like you is!" Gu Zheng took a step forward and said to the crowd without batting an eyelid.
"Don't worry, I will torture you to avenge my dead friend!" Song Ang said to Gu Zheng with a ferocious expression.
"Before that, I want to introduce a friend of mine to you!" The Great Elder said eerily.
"Lord Feng, please come out!"
A loud voice pierced through the clouds.
As the Great Elder said respectfully, a black spot suddenly appeared in the sky and fell rapidly from the top of the mountain.
When it was about to land, a pair of black wings suddenly flashed out from the back of the figure. It stirred up a gust of wind on the ground and rushed out in all directions.
When the gust of wind was still a distance away from Gu Zheng, it hit an invisible barrier and disappeared.
"Lord Feng, it's an honor to have you come out of the mountain and help us through this crisis!" The Great Elder's attitude was very humble, which made the other Goblins wonder who Lord Feng was. After all, even the Right Guardian hadn't seen him before. It was very likely that he was a Big Goblin from the Bass Mountain Range.
"Don't worry, you promised me that as long as this matter is over, you Goblin who don't belong here will leave this place. Am I right?" Lord Feng looked at the Great Elder coldly and said.
They guessed right. He was a Big Goblin from the Bass Mountain Range. His cultivation was not lower than that of the Great Elder. However, he was very smart and would not provoke humans. He usually stayed in the depths of the mountain range. Anyway, those humans would not disturb him.
However, the mountain range that had been stirred up by the Great Elder over the years was somewhat unstable. The other party asked for his help, and the price was that they would leave this place forever. Since they were not here, he came out to help them. After all, he was a Goblin.
This new Big Goblin made Gu Zheng and the others' faces turn ugly. Even Bo Xu had secretly transmitted a message to Gu Zheng.
"Brother Gu, should we retreat? It seems that the Goblin is determined to leave this place this time. Now that the formation has been broken, it can't stop us. Moreover, Miss Xue 'er has been successfully rescued. Now, we don't have to fight with the other party at all!"
Gu Zheng shook his head slowly at him. Did he think that it would be over if they retreated?
Impossible. He dared to say that if they escaped, they would definitely chase them and kill them, even if they had to chase them to the human countries.
In particular, he and Asura had already formed a deadly feud. The other party would not stop until they killed him.
"Why don't you retreat first and take Xue 'er and the others away while you're at it? I'll stay here!" Gu Zheng transmitted a message to him.
"That's not what I meant. Since you don't want to leave, we'll fight them to the end!" Bo Xu saw that Gu Zheng had misunderstood him. He did not explain further and directly expressed his attitude. Even if he died here, he would not regret it as long as he could bring a few more Goblin with him.
Lan Xin and Lan Xing looked at each other and nodded heavily. They already knew what the other party meant.
Everyone's expression became serious. The other party had such a powerful reinforcement. To them, it was no less than their last life-saving straw. The scales were tilting towards the other party.
However, no one retreated, including Xing Cai who had just arrived. They all held their weapons tightly. A great battle of the century was about to begin.
On the other side, Great Elder and Lord Feng had finished talking. The Goblin side was much more relaxed. From their point of view, victory would not be an issue. They just did not want to be captured by the other party before they died.
Song Ang looked at the new Goblin and pursed his lips in his heart.
Although the Goblin had declined a lot, where there were humans, there would be Goblin. Where there were no humans, there would still be Goblin. A starving camel was still bigger than a horse. The Asura's numbers were still too few.
"Lord Feng, let's make our move. Long delays may lead to trouble. The sooner we get rid of them, the sooner we can leave!" Great Elder chuckled.
"Watch me teach them a lesson first!" Lord Feng said arrogantly. He walked out alone and looked at the people in front of him.
"It's your honor to die by my hands. Unfortunately, I don't accept surrenders. I can only say that your fate is not too good!" A green ball of air kept spinning in his hand. Although the ball of air was very small, it emitted a terrifying wave that attracted people's attention.
As soon as he finished speaking, the green ball in his hand was thrown over by the other party. In an instant, it drew a green arc in the air and was thrown over the head of Gu Zheng, who was the leader.
Before Gu Zheng could do anything, a ball of water appeared in mid-air. Xing Cai, who was at the side, immediately rushed out. Her hand passed through the ball of water and instantly became a water blade that slashed towards the green ball in the air.
"You overestimate yourself!"
"Xing Cai, come back!"
Two voices came from Lord Feng and Gu Zheng. Although the green ball did not have any momentum after it was thrown, it was because all the energy was gathered in it. It did not seem like much.
However, at that moment, the water blade in Xing Cai's hand had already clashed with the other party. Xing Cai instantly felt that something was wrong.
She immediately retreated from her charging posture. The water blade in her hand was immediately shattered into pieces. Countless water droplets appeared in the air and attacked Xing Cai's face with endless power.
Layers of rainbow-colored silk appeared in front of her, blocking the water droplets in front of her. However, the green ball seemed to be stimulated. Strands of wind appeared around it, and its speed suddenly increased. It continued to rush toward Xing Cai.
At that moment, her face was full of cold sweat. She was shocked by the sudden burst of power from the green ball. She knew that she had underestimated her opponent. Even if this attack was thrown casually by the other party, she was not unprepared and could take it.
If she was really caught by the other party, a single attack could seriously injure her and make her withdraw from the battle. This would make Gu Zheng and the others, who were already weak, even more uncomfortable.
However, she had only retreated a few steps when a palm brushed past her cheek and instantly grabbed the green ball.
Everyone saw the palm suddenly clench, and a wisp of green smoke came out from it, turning into a wisp of green smoke that rose into the air.
When the palm was opened, there was no damage at all. However, the green ball had disappeared without a trace.
Even a late-stage Jin Xian could not take that aggressive green ball. It was quietly destroyed by the young man in front of them.
Song Ang looked at the calm Gu Zheng, who did not seem to care about what had just happened. Song Ang's evaluation of him increased by another level. No wonder his subordinates could not even escape. He and the Great Elder had already overestimated the other party. However, they did not expect the other party to be stronger than they thought.
Even Lord Feng's indifferent expression disappeared. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Gu Zheng. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Be careful. The other party's strength is not inferior to the Great Elder. Don't be impulsive!" Gu Zheng said to Xing Cai, who looked as if she had just survived a disaster.
"Feng Xing, the peak of Jin Xian. He is a Big Goblin native of the Beise Mountain Range. It is said that his body is a black bat. It is said that he has a trace of the bloodline of the Ancient Wind Dragon, so he calls himself Feng Xing. His speed is much faster than Lan Xing. It is even said that he can teleport. I don't know if his speed is too fast or if he really can teleport. However, we have not interfered with each other before." At this time, Bo Xu quickly told the information he knew.
Although it was only a few words, it was enough to understand the other party's background.
Just like the pressure everyone felt, the other party was indeed the peak of Jin Xian.
"You have some skills. No wonder you are the person he values. However, now that things have come to this, do you think you can stop me with just you, oh, and that little reptile? Come at me together. Don't say that I am bullying you! "Feng Xing pointed at Gu Zheng and Qi Xiang, and said provocatively.
"Let's proceed according to the original plan. I will hold back the three of them. You guys quickly deal with each other. Be careful not to let them take the opportunity to perish together with you. If it is really dangerous, I have a way to make them fall into chaos. They won't have any scruples about us!" At this time, Gu Zheng whispered to them.
Feeling the strange monster in front of his chest that was chained by the black chain, Gu Zheng would release it as a last resort. However, the other party did not distinguish between friend and foe. Who knew what would happen? There was no way to control it at all.
Everyone nodded, indicating that they understood Gu Zheng's meaning. He wanted to bear the most pressure by himself. If he was not careful, he would die.
"Have you finished discussing? Then you can go to hell! " Feng Xing looked at his opponent. When he saw the Great Elder giving him a meaningful glance, he knew that he had wasted some time. Therefore, the wind spears that he had prepared earlier appeared behind his back, thrusting towards the Great Elder.
"Bang!"
A familiar voice rang out in the air, followed by a few crisp 'ding dong' sounds. A small figure appeared in the middle of Gu Zheng and the others.
That small figure suddenly expanded, and all the wind spears were blocked by him. Those wind spears all landed on his body, but all of them exploded outside his skin. Apart from a few strands of hair falling off, nothing else happened.
"Cute pet!" Gu Zheng shouted in surprise. How could he not have thought that the other party would appear here?
"Where did you come from, you bastard? Get out of my way!" Feng Xing said angrily. He had not fought for many years, and every time he attacked, his attacks were blocked by someone else. He felt a little embarrassed, so he cursed angrily.
"Who are you calling a bastard? I think you are the bastard!"
A faintly discernible voice rang out in the air. The voice was full of disdain.
Feng Xing's expression changed. A grey stream of air appeared on his body, directly tearing him into countless pieces. However, it was just an afterimage.
Feng Xing had already returned to the Great Elder's side. When he saw a figure suddenly appear in the air, he smiled and said to Gu Zheng behind him.
"Long time no see, Fellow Cultivator Gu!"
