Dongfang Xue gave Gu Xuan a look of disdain.
"I don't know, and I don't want to know."
Gu Xuan was stunned. Why didn't you play by the rules?
No, even if you don't want to know, I have to say it.
The words were already at the tip of his tongue, he wouldn't feel good if he didn't say it.
"I really didn't expect that Shui Wudi was actually a sentimental person.
He and the female leader of the Water Demon Clan that I killed before were actually Dao companions.
However, later on, this guy made a mistake and provoked a Heavenly Dao Emissary. The entire soul beast race was sent to the ninth realm and locked up.
When the Water Demon Clan woman died, she sent him the message before her death.
After he knew, he used many methods and even sneaked to the first realm, realm after realm to find me.
Unfortunately, he never found me.
However, he collected a lot of information about me, so he knew me so well.
Later, this guy went to the eighth realm and found that the seventh and eighth realms were about to merge. He didn't dare to stay any longer and returned to the ninth realm.
Originally, he was already in despair and thought that it was impossible to find me. He didn't expect that when the Holy Rankings announced the initial rankings, this guy saw hope again.
Needless to say, you know what happened later.
Coincidentally, we actually passed by his nest.
He naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity.
Unfortunately, in terms of luck, he couldn't compare to me.
He died very unpeacefully.
To be able to go to this extent for a Water Demon Clan woman is already considered rare.
Poignant, really poignant! "
Gu Xuan sighed.
Dongfang Xue stared at Gu Xuan in disdain.
"Is this considered breaking up a pair of mandarin ducks?
You killed the male mandarin duck, and you also killed the female mandarin duck?
If you're so emotional, then why didn't you let the male mandarin duck live? "
The corners of Gu Xuan's mouth twitched.
A girl's perspective was always so different.
He just wanted to casually tell a story to ease the awkwardness. Isn't your focus skewed?
The two of us were almost capsized by the male mandarin duck!
You actually asked me why I didn't let him live?
Can I let him go?
Besides, before killing the male mandarin duck, he didn't know these things either!
Gu Xuan saw these things from a wisp of Shui Wudi's remnant soul.
Presumably, these memories were related to him. Shui Wudi's obsession was too deep, so he left them in his remnant soul after he died.
Everything had its own cause and effect.
The memories Gu Xuan received regarding Shui Wudi were just this little bit.
There were more useful memories, such as why he was related to the Demon Race as a soul beast. These memories were completely gone.
Gu Xuan quickly changed the topic.
"Cough, cough. Two days have passed.
There were only a little more than 48 hours left until the first announcement of the rankings.
The second ranking would be announced soon.
After the rankings are announced, we will decide what to do next. "
Dongfang Xue nodded. That was the only way.
Two hundred li away from here, in a forest.
The Confucian Saber Saint looked up at the sky, his face twitching.
"According to the news, two days ago, Gu Xuan was only three hundred li away from here. It's been two days, but he still hasn't arrived!
Is the heavens playing with me? "
The Confucian Blade Saint was speechless.
They were filled with anticipation and resentment as they laid in ambush and waited for Gu Xuan. But never had they imagined that this wait would actually last for two days!
It's only three hundred miles. Even if you walk, you should be there by now!
What's more, a Profound Sage powerhouse would definitely fly.
But he still hadn't arrived.
The Confucian Blade Saint suspected that Gu Xuan had sensed danger and fled in another direction in advance.
But if Gu Xuan had really fled in another direction, Zhuge Wuwo would definitely have informed him and not let him wait foolishly.
"What's going on?"
The Confucian Blade Saint frowned and let out a long sigh in his heart.
Now, he urgently needed to kill Gu Xuan and prove his strength to Zhuge Wuwo.
Otherwise, Zhuge Wuwo would probably kill him without hesitation.
"I can only hope that bastard Gu Xuan comes quickly!"
The Confucian Blade Saint gritted his teeth.
After a while, he finally calmed down. He took out his identity jade badge and began to look at it.
"Two days have passed since the ten-day deadline of the competition.
He also didn't know who had taken the Burning Sky Saint Ranking.
The latest ranking list should be out by now, right?
Gu Xuan, Gu Xuan, don't give your life to others so easily.
Don't waste the killing move that I've painstakingly prepared for you! "
The Confucian Blade Saint clenched his fists. His long nails dug into his flesh. Red blood flowed down his fingers and dripped down.
The Confucian Blade Saint didn't seem to notice it at all.
This bit of pain, this bit of blood, to him, was nothing.
A quarter of an hour had passed.
A solemn voice suddenly exploded in the void and resounded throughout the entire Ninth Realm.
"The second ranking list of the Holy Ranking is announced:
25th, Dongfang Xue!
24th, Golden Lion …
20th, Confucian Blade Saint …
19th, Giant Scythe Mantis …
14th, Mr. Liu …
11th, Crocodile Dragon King!
10th, Lu Ming …
4th, Water Saint!
3rd, Shi Zhixuan!
2nd, Occult King Octahead!
1st, Gu Xuan! "
After the second ranking list was announced, the solemn voice didn't disappear.
"There are eight days left until the Holy Ranking Competition.
The space of the competition will be reduced to an area of five thousand miles with the Nine Fingers Mountain as the center.
Those outside this area will be automatically teleported to the vicinity of the Nine Fingers Mountain! "
The solemn voice finally disappeared.
Immediately, the strong cultivators with rankings, especially those who were in the top 15 and were about to find a place to hide, were all dumbfounded.
This was clearly not giving them a chance to live!
The Holy Ranking Competition had a limited area?
It was only the third day, and the competition's area was only five thousand miles?
Then wouldn't the area be even smaller on the fifth and seventh days?
On the ninth day, when there were only two days left, the competition's area would probably be reduced to a point that would make the strong cultivators even more desperate.
At that time, all the strong cultivators would be gathered in a small area. It would be a real narrow path, and there would be no way to hide!
Of course, this wasn't the most desperate.
The most desperate ones were the few strong cultivators who were five thousand miles away from the Nine Fingers Mountain. They were secretly happy that they had stabilized their rankings.
After a ray of light fell, they were instantly teleported to the vicinity of the Nine Fingers Mountain.
Immediately, the group of beast leaders who were sulking because they didn't get a place on the Holy Ranking looked like hungry wolves who saw their prey. Their eyes lit up.
Everyone who was teleported here was a powerful cultivator with an identity jade badge.
This was a fat piece of meat!
Soon, the few powerful cultivators who had just been teleported here were surrounded by the beast leaders.
At this moment, Gu Xuan and Dongfang Xue had already flown out from a mountain.
The surrounding terrain was completely different from what they remembered when they first arrived.
The volcanoes below them had all disappeared. That was an illusion to begin with.
Instead, they were replaced by a series of mountain peaks.
"Let's go back. There's no need to go any further.
After the fourth day, when the Holy Ranking Competition is announced again, we'll probably only be able to move within a radius of two thousand miles.
Who would've thought that the Heavenly Dao would be so insidious as to play such a trick? "
Gu Xuan grumbled as he rubbed his chin in thought.
Whoosh whoosh! The two of them transformed into two streaks of light and flew back the way they came.
