In the giant pit …
Complete silence.
Everyone was staring at Elder Liu Ju and Gu Xuan with dumbfounded expressions.
No one would have thought that the two of them would suddenly appear here and kill two peak stage saints with just a raise of their hands.
It was fine if it was Elder Liu Ju as she was a peak stage saint and had extraordinary strength.
But what did Gu Xuan do?
A mid-level saint wasn't afraid of the Devil Bone Parasite's poison and was able to crush the body that was as tough as a ruler's fate and an emperor's weapon. He was even able to crush a peak stage saint's neck in a split second?
Why!? Elder Bai and the remaining three peak stage saints were shocked and suddenly thought of another question.
Wasn't Elder Liu Ju in the bamboo house?
Why did she come out?
How did she come out?
Shouldn't she be a corpse now?
Since she wasn't, did it mean that the situation in the bamboo house was different from what they expected?
For a moment, Elder Bai and the others were like statues and didn't dare to act rashly.
"Elder Liu Ju, Gu Xuan, this is great. Both of you are fine!"
Elder Zi Lan was extremely excited.
"Thanks to you for reminding us that Elder Bai is a traitor, we are able to last until now.
Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable! "
Li Wuyu was also extremely excited and his lips were trembling when he spoke.
But as soon as he spoke, he felt a few murderous eyes landing on him.
Gu Xuan suddenly wanted to turn back into 'Liu Ruyan' and roll his eyes at Li Wuyu.
A girl's eye roll was always more powerful! "Elder Li Wuyu, I am really suspecting if you are in cahoots with Elder Bai.
The first thing you said after seeing me was to betray me.
I am just a mere mid-level saint and I am under a lot of pressure! "
Gu Xuan was extremely speechless.
The wrinkles at the corner of Li Wuyu's eyes twitched a few times and he finally realized why his senior and junior brothers were looking at him with such unfriendly eyes.
He was too excited and spoke indiscreetly.
But it didn't matter! "Gu Xuan, don't panic. The situation has reversed and there are only four enemies left. How can they deal with us?
We will protect you well! "
Gu Xuan was speechless again.
Elder Bai and the others were speechless as they looked at their companion's decapitated body.
Did a martial artist who crushed the Devil Bone Parasite and killed a peak stage saint really need your protection?
With your current weak state, it's already good enough that you don't need someone to protect you, okay?
"How is the Tower Master's current situation?"
Elder Zephyr asked anxiously.
Elder Liu Ju's lips moved slightly as she briefly explained the situation in the bamboo house. Although it wasn't very clear, it was enough to put everyone at ease.
At the very least, the Tower Master had woken up.
This was also the territory of the ancient pagoda lineage.
No matter how powerful that Hundred Annihilation was, he had no chance of killing the Pagoda Master.
While the few of them were conversing through voice transmissions, Elder Bai's gaze had already lingered on Gu Xuan for a long time.
Light flowed in his eyes. Clearly, he was trying his best to strengthen his eyesight, wanting to see some clues from Gu Xuan's body.
Unfortunately, he didn't find anything.
Even when using Spiritual Strength, he could only see the Ancient Mystic realm and nothing else.
Elder Bai could only give up.
"Gu Xuan, who exactly are you?
How do you know that I am a traitor? Ah pui, I am not a traitor.
I am Lord Bai Mie's trusted aide. From the beginning to the end, I have been! "
Elder Bai sneered.
Gu Xuan stared at Elder Bai without backing down.
"Because after you all went to the top floor of the ancient pagoda, I went to the first floor.
There, I saw another Elder Bai! He also knew me and was the same as you. He was preparing to make a move on the disciples of the ancient pagoda lineage.
With my intellect, it is hard for me not to guess that you are a traitor.
Not only that, I also know that you are not Elder Bai. You used the 'Great Soul Exchange Technique' and killed the original Elder Bai. You inherited his memories, soul, body, and everything else! "
The more Gu Xuan spoke, the uglier Elder Bai's expression became.
In the end, his face was as gloomy as water.
Gu Xuan actually guessed everything! He even knew about an absolute secret like the 'Great Soul Exchange Technique'.
No matter what, these things could not be spread out.
Otherwise, there would be a huge problem! "What!? Elder Bai died long ago?
This person is not Elder Bai?
I knew it … I knew it … how could the real Elder Bai betray us? "
Two streams of tears streamed down Elder Yan Yan's face.
Elder Zephyr Thunder, Li Wuyu and the others had tears in their eyes as well.
They had always been furious and pained by Elder Bai's betrayal.
But now, they finally knew the truth from Gu Xuan's mouth.
Elder Bai did not betray them.
He was killed by the enemy! When Gu Xuan saw their expressions, he knew that the knot in their hearts had been resolved because of his words.
Their feelings towards Elder Bai were only left with hatred and were no longer as complicated as before.
Gu Xuan smiled gently and narrowed his eyes, still glaring at Elder Bai.
"I don't know your true identity and I don't want to know either.
However, I know something that you definitely want to know but don't know about. "
Gu Xuan kept him in suspense.
Elder Bai frowned and sneered.
"I wonder what it is that's so complicated and mysterious?"
Gu Xuan's lips curled into a mocking smile.
"It's not complicated or mysterious.
Previously, in the bamboo house, the first thing Baimie did after entering was not to find trouble with the Pagoda Master.
Instead, he broke Liu Ruyan's heart meridian with a palm strike.
Before Liu Ruyan died, Baimie even said to her that she was not worthy of learning the Great Soul Exchange Technique.
Tsk tsk, how tragic. "
Elder Bai's expression changed a few times.
When Liu Ruyan welcomed the Pagoda Master into the bamboo house, she was still alive and even injured Elder Zi Lan with a palm strike.
Why did Lord Baimie want to kill her?
That was impossible! "Lord Baimie has always treated his subordinates extremely well and Liu Ruyan is his trusted aide. Why would he kill Liu Ruyan?
What do you mean by deliberately deceiving me?
Could it be that you want to drive a wedge between me and Lord Baimie? "
Gu Xuan shrugged his shoulders.
"I'm just stating a fact. I've never thought of lying to you or driving a wedge between you guys.
The few of you are already in a situation of certain death. Do I still need to lie to you guys? "
Elder Bai's gaze was erratic as if he was thinking about something. However, his gaze soon became firm again.
"Ridiculous! No matter what you say, I won't believe it! Also, the ones who are in a situation of certain death are you guys, not us! The things that you guys know now are too much. You must die today! "
Gu Xuan looked at Elder Bai like he was looking at an idiot.
"How do you think I know about the so-called 'Great Soul Exchange Technique'?
Wasn't it because Baimie thought that he had everything under control and told Liu Ruyan before she died?
He even said that this was to let Liu Ruyan die in peace. That's why he told her.
Oh right, he also said that the reason why some people could successfully perform the 'soul exchange' was merely because he wanted to do an experiment to confirm that the 'Great Soul Exchange Technique' was feasible.
Actually, you and I are already like fire and water. I really don't need to say these words.
It's just that I'm a soft-hearted person and don't want some people to die without knowing anything.
Why don't you think about it too? At that time, even Baimie entered the bamboo house. Other than him, who else could kill Liu Ruyan?
Even if the Pagoda Master made a move, Baimie could also save her, right? "
Elder Bai's expression was already ugly to the extreme.
Gu Xuan's words made him waver again.
Gu Xuan knew too much, so much that it was abnormal.
Some things, if not said by Lord Baimie personally, it was impossible for him to know.
Most importantly, what Gu Xuan said was right. With Lord Baimie's strength, if he did not want Liu Ruyan to die, who could kill her?
Which was also to say that Liu Ruyan was really killed by Lord Baimie! Elder Bai clenched his fists tightly. A hint of grievance and grief flashed across his eyes.
He was actually really just an experimental subject?
What a joke! Elder Bai's eyes already reached the extent where it could not be concealed anymore.
Elder Liu Ju saw it clearly.
The corners of her mouth twitched a few times.
Gu Xuan that brat was too ruthless! This was killing people and even attacking their hearts! The battle to the death with Elder Bai and the rest after was still unavoidable.
But regardless of whether it was Elder Bai or the remaining three black-clothed masked men, they probably already had their own little schemes in their hearts.
They would probably no longer wholeheartedly for Baimie and be fearless of death.
Gu Xuan was vicious enough! "Cut the crap. Everyone, don't believe in this person's words.
Lord Baimie is definitely not someone who would burn the bridge after crossing the river. This person dared to slander Lord Baimie. His crime deserves ten thousand deaths! Kill for me. Take down their heads and use it to welcome Lord Baimie's soul exchange return! "
Elder Bai roared and took the lead to attack, directly attacking Gu Xuan!
