Sun Hu took a few steps forward and took the token and blue bead from Gu Zheng before asking, "Yes, Elder!"
"Elder, Miss Xing Cai is in the village now. Why don't you give it to her personally?"
"You don't need to ask about that. Little Ye will protect you along the way. You just need to go as fast as you can." Gu Zheng didn't explain. After saying the last sentence to him, his entire body turned into a breeze and disappeared.
"Elder, Elder, I still don't know your name!" Sun Hu suddenly remembered and shouted towards the sky.
However, only his voice could be heard. Gu Zheng had already left and no one knew where he went.
"Bird! Bird! Bird! "Suddenly, a frightened voice came from behind Sun Hu.
"That's the Elder's pet. Don't make a fuss. Hurry up and grab the captive on the ground. We have to leave this place!" Sun Hu turned around and saw that his companion had woken up.
"What Elder? Wasn't I captured by them? How did I end up like this?" He looked at his body in surprise. There was no trace of injury at all.
"Don't talk nonsense. I'll tell you on the way. Let's leave this place now."
Soon, the two of them violently grabbed the captive and carried him on their backs as they rushed towards the village. High up in the sky, a bird spread its wings and followed them quietly.
.....
Gu Zheng looked at an inconspicuous cave in front of him. After thinking for a while, he barged in.
He was sure that he didn't follow the wrong person. The captive did enter from here. He didn't expect that there would be a gap in this crevice halfway up the mountain. However, it looked like it was man-made.
Originally, Gu Zheng didn't plan to keep the captive. At that time, he only let the captive stay for a while. He also wanted to know about the captive's situation. However, when he heard that the most important person to Xing Cai had been captured, he changed his mind. After leaving a unique mark on her body, he let the captive go.
He was going to save the so-called Elder Ye. He didn't know how worried Xing Cai would be if he came so late. It was a good opportunity to calm her down. Of course, he was relying on Zi Yi, who was still unconscious.
Even if the other party knew that he was using her, Gu Zheng was sure that the other party would obediently bring him along and pass through the place where she came from.
It had only been a day since he entered this place, but he had already seen the end of Line Peak. It had only been a few hundred kilometers, but it had suddenly turned into a tall mountain peak. Hei Feng covered the sky. As he approached, he could even hear a low roar. However, he did not show that he had nothing better to do to test the power of the Line Peak.
From that time onwards, the mountain range was continuous, and it basically ran all the way to this territory. Even here, it only touched the periphery of the center, which showed that this place was really big.
Moreover, the forest was densely covered with countless animals. Living in this huge forest was like an undeveloped wilderness.
Moreover, the animals here were obviously much stronger than they looked from the outside. Even a harmless rabbit could kick a healthy ordinary person to death in a short burst.
While thinking, he continued to walk along the narrow passage. This passage should have been opened not long ago. It could only allow one person to pass through, and there were some fallen stones on the ground.
Gu Zheng did not walk too fast because he had already sensed that the Banshee's aura was not far ahead. Moreover, the other party was very cunning. She had left many traps and even more explosives on the road. It seemed that she wanted to completely block the passage so that Gu Zheng would not be able to find her.
Gu Zheng did not need to put too much effort into this kind of child's play. In fact, Gu Zheng even considerately modified it for her. This way, at least the exit would be blocked, but the middle part would not be damaged.
They walked in this passage intermittently for three days. The further they went, the more spacious the path became. It could even allow two people to walk side by side without a problem. Vaguely, they could hear the sound of flowing water.
Luo Xin breathed a sigh of relief as she looked at the pitch-black tunnel. Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew past her, causing her to shiver. She could almost see that strange human expert walking out of the tunnel in the next moment, grabbing her by the neck and saying,
"Thank you for bringing me here. Now, you can die!"
However, in the next moment, the white light on her chest began to flicker slowly on its own. Luo Xin's originally dazed expression began to wake up.
"Cough, cough!"
Luo Xin had already woken up from that state. Her hand fell from her neck, and she could not help but kneel down. One of her hands pressed on the white light on her chest, and she gasped for air. Sweat flowed down her forehead like a stream, and in the blink of an eye, there was a pool of sweat on the ground.
Even though this position was still very far away from the top, a little bit of aura was coming down from above. If there was a slight flaw in her mind, it would be taken advantage of.
If it was not for the treasure on her chest that helped her block this attack, she was afraid that she would have been strangled to death by herself.
Luo Xin looked up fearfully. Then, she placed the last special crystal on the wall and ran far away.
"Boom, boom!"
Following a series of loud explosions, the last entrance of the passage in front of her was blocked. Luo Xin no longer hesitated and jumped into the only pool in the middle, disappearing from this place.
Not long after she left, in this small cave, a figure slowly emerged. It was Gu Zheng.
At this moment, he looked at the wall with a puzzled expression. Although it was covered with layers of thick rocks, and he did not know whether it was an illusion or not, he could vaguely feel a flowing sound from it.
After thinking carefully, Gu Zheng did not act rashly. Instead, he slowly forced out some of the black aura from his body. Although the amount was very small and could be ignored by him, Gu Zheng still felt the shock brought by the remnant waves. No wonder the upper level was forbidden.
After waiting quietly for another half an hour, Gu Zheng jumped into the pool in the middle.
This was an underground river. He did not know how it broke through a hole here. Following the undercurrent under the huge and messy water, he finally emerged from a river with a very weak aura.
No one would have thought that under the river, which was only a few feet wide, there was actually a huge underground river. Moreover, if he wanted to go in, he would have to go deep into the bottom of the river. There was an inconspicuous small cave at the bottom. There were obvious traces of violence on the outside. He really admired the person who found this place.
At this moment, this place was far away from the surroundings of the Linear Peak. Now that he came out, it was as if he was in a vast grassland.
After carefully confirming that there was no one around, Gu Zheng's body changed. He turned into a handsome and strong man. His appearance was completely different from Gu Zheng's. He had a silver sword by his side. He had a slender figure and his eyes were bright and full of spirit. He looked very imposing.
Gu Zheng looked at his somewhat conspicuous appearance. After observing for a while, his imposing aura returned a little. He felt that it was not so conspicuous. Only then did he nod in satisfaction.
At this moment, Gu Zheng's aura had completely changed. With the appearance of Young Master Qi and the aura of his purple robes, it was enough to make people below his cultivation unable to see through him.
After confirming the direction, Gu Zheng once again dashed along the river.
Only three days later, on the way forward, at the edge of the river, some members of the Demon Clan began to appear sporadically. Some of them had obviously returned to their original forms, some of them had not fully transformed, and some of them had fully transformed.
For ordinary people like them, this distance was enough for them to walk for a long time. Even for ordinary warriors with some cultivation, it would probably take them a month to cross this distance.
However, under Gu Zheng's full speed, he even left Luo Xin far behind. On the way, Gu Zheng also saw the man who was rushing at top speed. However, Gu Zheng did not ask about it. He would not ask about these small fries.
However, after arriving here, in order to avoid being noticed by others, he also walked out of his hidden state. Like everyone else, he walked along the side of the river, but with a slightly faster posture.
As he walked, he looked at the crowd around him. Most of them were heading in the direction of the mountain pass.
A day later, under Gu Zheng's increased speed, a black silhouette appeared in the distance. It looked like a huge city was stationed here. It was not small, and the surroundings were all built with black stones.
From this angle, he could already see that the originally endless mountain peaks suddenly seemed to be cut off by something. However, he could not see the other end. At present, the width of the pass was unexpectedly wide.
"Splash!"
As Gu Zheng was observing the city in the distance, a water column suddenly exploded beside him. The huge water column exploded in the air, and countless water droplets splashed in all directions. Although there was no power, many people were caught off guard and could not dodge in time. They were all drenched from head to toe by the raindrops.
Before anyone could complain, the three silhouettes in the water suddenly exploded, causing a huge wave to spread to the side.
When everyone saw this, they immediately fled in all directions. No one was willing to be drenched. As for those people who were cursing, their vicious words had just left their mouths when they were hit by the water current. After drinking a mouthful of water, their faces immediately changed. Seeing that they were drenched from head to toe, they didn't bother to settle the score with them and ran outside to hide.
"Don't go too far. This place has now been designated as our living space. You can't break in for no reason. If you do something disgusting here, be careful or I will report you to the higher-ups!" The three figures floated in the air. One of them, who looked younger, said to the two people in front of him with a red face.
The surrounding crowd also gathered and curiously looked at the dispute above.
"Haha, we're just joking. Besides, we're just visiting a friend. If you don't like the gifts we brought, you don't have to do anything to us!" One of the men with an evil look on his face suddenly spread out his hands and pretended to be innocent.
"You … you … you call this a gift? Do you think I am a fool? "The young man's eyes were burning with anger, and his finger kept trembling while pointing at the other party.
"Okay, okay, I apologize to you on behalf of us. It is our fault. We didn't expect you to be different from the other side. We sent a pile of stinky internal organs to you." The sinister young man's friend, Lian Ai, persuaded from the side, but her loud voice was heard clearly by everyone.
The people around suddenly roared with laughter. No wonder that young man was so angry. This was simply a slap in the face.
"Sigh, the marine race is getting more and more unlucky. They have already fallen to this point. It seems that it won't be long before this batch of elites become talents. I am afraid that they will be beaten down and become a second-class race." A person at the side sighed. However, his whole body had turned into a human form, so no one knew what race he was.
"Hehe, who asked them to be biased towards the humans? If they are not unlucky, who wouldn't be unlucky? However, they also did a good thing. They let us know that the humans can be exploited more. Speaking of which, the human servants of my family are really convenient." Next to her, a woman in gorgeous clothes couldn't help but laugh when she heard her companion's words.
"Yes, can you believe it? The other side doesn't even have a single master. If they hadn't made enough contributions in the past, their tribes would have been defeated at that time. Now, they are being assigned to this river to struggle at death's door. How delightful, haha!" His companion said and laughed, taking pleasure in other people's misfortune.
Almost no one in the surrounding people sympathized with the other side. Instead, they were watching the situation as if they were watching a play. They were watching the development of the situation above.
The young man above was about to explode in anger when he heard the discussions below. He felt that the surrounding people were laughing at him. The decline of his tribe was an indisputable fact. Otherwise, the other side wouldn't dare to stand up so openly.
His other hand was clenched tightly. Seeing that he was about to explode, the young man opposite him spoke again.
"Lu Jun, we have already apologized to you. What are you going to do? Don't go too far. You have to know that if things get out of hand, I won't be able to get any benefits. But what about you? Think carefully about the consequences before you take action! "The evil young man suddenly said with a threatening tone.
These words were like a basin of cold water that drenched Lu Jun from top to bottom. It woke him up from his anger.
"Okay, okay, I don't want your gifts. I don't need your group of friends in the future. Don't look for me anymore!" Lu Jun took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.
"Haha, don't worry. You don't even want to accept the gifts of your friends. It seems that our good intentions were treated as ill intent. Forget it, his cultivation has improved greatly recently. He doesn't care about his old friends. Let's go!" The evil young man's eyes were smiling. He deliberately emphasized the importance of the gifts, causing a burst of laughter below.
"I won't see you off!" Lu Jun said coldly. He didn't even lift his eyelids as he watched the other party leave. In the blink of an eye, he was about to continue falling when he suddenly heard a shout from the surroundings.
"Wait!"
"What? Don't tell me you have a gift for me too? " Lu Jun looked at the person who spoke and said coldly. At this moment, he was like a balloon filled with air. The slightest provocation could cause him to explode.
However, since the other party dared to speak, he naturally wasn't afraid at all. A person with a powerful aura flew out from the crowd and said directly.
"Look at my body. It was wet because of you just now. Since you didn't do it on purpose, apologize to me and I won't pursue the matter anymore!"
"That's right. Me too. I don't ask for much. An apology is enough. You have to know that we were walking well. What a disaster!"
With someone taking the lead, there were naturally others who were willing to follow suit. After all, there were people who were willing to stand up for them. For a moment, a few people who weren't afraid of blowing up the matter immediately followed suit.
"You all …" Lu Jun looked at the group of people and his heart was filled with endless sorrow. No wonder the clan made him the patriarch. It wasn't just because of his talent. It was also because the current situation wasn't the same as before. If the patriarch and elders were still around, they wouldn't be so presumptuous. However, a featherless phoenix was inferior to a chicken. Moreover, they weren't even phoenixes.
Suddenly, Lu Jun's head hurriedly turned back. His eyes were wide open as if they were going to pop out in the next moment. He turned a deaf ear to the provocation of those people. His eyes were fixed in one direction, as if he had seen something unbelievable.
Those who were stirring up trouble were somewhat puzzled when they saw this scene. Some people who were watching the fun also followed the direction of the gaze.
A very young man was there. Just like the others, he was looking at the situation with great interest. Suddenly, he saw everyone looking at him strangely. Gu Zheng couldn't help but feel puzzled and subconsciously asked, "What's the matter?
"Why are you all looking at me!"
"Elder!"
Lu Jun suddenly let out a wail, startling everyone. Then, his eyes glistened with tears. He rushed over in an instant and knelt down in front of Gu Zheng.
"You came back so late. Everyone thought that you had suffered misfortune!"
Lu Jun put his head on the ground and said with his body trembling.
"Get up first!" Gu Zheng saw that so many people were looking at him. Moreover, the people around him were quietly leaving his side.
"I really didn't expect that you would come back at this time. You don't know the hardships we have suffered over the past thousand years. I thought we were going to fall. Elder, you have to fight for us!" Lu Jun seemed to have not heard Gu Zheng's words and was still complaining about the pain in his heart.
His tone was full of endless grievances and his voice was choked with sobs.
Gu Zheng didn't expect that the other party would reveal his true feelings. He could feel that the other party wasn't faking it at all. He was really crying from the bottom of his heart.
"I didn't expect that they still have a surviving elder. Looking at the other party, I'm afraid that he doesn't know the current situation at all. I'm afraid that he hasn't come back for tens of thousands of years!"
"That's true. However, the other party seems a little too young. Although I don't believe it, his aura can't be faked!"
"I just don't know how strong the other party is. However, even if an elder came back, he probably wouldn't be able to change the situation of the Water Tribe. However, at least they can change to a real place and not struggle to survive here."
Gu Zheng listened to the discussions around him and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He also understood why he was misunderstood by the other party. After all, he was wearing the aura of the purple robe. No wonder no one doubted him.
It seemed that there were small circles here according to species. Those who were powerful would occupy more things and those who were weak would be bullied. There was no difference anywhere. This principle seemed to apply everywhere.
In fact, Gu Zheng later found that his guess was right.
