"Antidote?"
"What antidote?"
"Is anyone poisoned?"
Elder Zephyr Thunder, Li Wuyu, and the rest all looked at each other, not understanding what was going on.
The Pagoda Master sighed, knowing that he could not hide it anymore, so he told them about how the ancient pagoda lineage's people were all poisoned by Gu worms.
When everyone learned the truth, they were all angry and furious.
Hateful gazes all landed on Ke Jiuji.
Ke Jiuji naturally would not care about the gazes of a group of saint lord martial artists.
He was still surprised by Gu Xuan's words earlier.
He never thought that Gu Xuan would actually be so easy to talk to, willing to let him and Ke Little Poison leave first.
And the condition was just him handing over the antidote first.
He had to leave first and hand over the antidote first. This was something that should be done. There was no need for Gu Xuan to mention it at all. Ke Jiuji would take the initiative to do so.
Otherwise, this deal would be him being insincere.
Now, Gu Xuan took the initiative to mention it instead, and did not add any other conditions. Instead, it made Ke Jiuji's heart jump for a while, afraid that Gu Xuan was going to play some scheme.
"Guest Elder Gu Xuan is indeed a straightforward person! We'll do it according to your suggestion.
I'll give you the antidote first, you let me and Ke Little Poison leave through the spacetime passageway first! "
Ke Jiuji laughed loudly, seemingly wanting to test it again.
"However, for both parties to have a guarantee, we have to make a heavy oath at the same time.
I guarantee that the antidote I give you is real.
You guarantee that you and the Pagoda Master will not use any means to hinder Little Poison and me from leaving! How about it? "
Ke Jiuji's wishful thinking was very good.
Once the oath was made, then even if Gu Xuan wanted to go back on it, it was simply impossible.
At that time, he would be completely at ease.
The Pagoda Master snorted coldly and scolded, "Old fox!"
He really wanted to persuade Gu Xuan not to agree with Ke Jiuji's opinion. This was too easy for him.
Helpless, the lives of the ancient pagoda lineage's elders and disciples were still in Ke Jiuji's hands. If he did not agree to his request, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Gu Xuan smiled slightly.
"I also don't want to complicate matters, this is for the best! To show my sincerity, Ke Jiuji, you make the oath first.
After that, I'll make the oath according to your oath.
This way, you don't have to worry that there will be a word trap in my oath. "
Gu Xuan spoke very sincerely.
This made Ke Jiuji feel a little embarrassed.
It seemed that he had gauged the heart of a gentleman with his own mean measure.
Gu Xuan truly wanted to save the ancient pagoda lineage's martial artists. He did not wish for any accidents to happen.
As Ke Jiuji calmed down, he couldn't help but envy the Tower Master.
To be able to obtain the help of such a loyal person like Gu Xuan, the golden age of the ancient pagoda lineage had arrived! Even the Nine Poison Valley would not be able to contend against the ancient tower lineage for a very long time.
The elders and disciples of the Ancient Pagoda Lineage looked at Gu Xuan with gratitude in their eyes.
"Guest Elder Gu Xuan, please listen well. I'll start swearing an oath now! I, Ke Jiu Ji, swear … "Ke Jiu Ji's eyes were firm as he said a long series of vows.
The gist of it was that they would definitely provide the real antidote to the ancient pagoda's martial artists. Otherwise, their bodies and souls would be destroyed.
Hearing out, Gu Xuan could not help feeling some more admiration towards Ke Jiuji.
This old man had practically blocked all the loopholes in the oath.
It was almost impossible to rely on word games to twist the oath and trick him.
"Your turn."
Ke Jiuji looked at Gu Xuan warily, but his eyes were filled with anticipation.
In his opinion, this was the final game between the two of them.
If Gu Xuan really had a scheme, this was the last chance to explode.
Otherwise, once the oath was made and everything was settled, all the schemes would be useless.
After leaving the sword tomb cave abode, no matter how strong Gu Xuan was, how could he keep him here?
Gu Xuan did not hesitate and swore his oath according to the format of Ke Jiuji's oath. There was no hint of hypocrisy or trickery.
After hearing out, Ke Jiuji was in a good mood.
Everything was really coming to an end.
The elders and disciples of the Ancient Pagoda Lineage were so touched that they broke down in tears. A few of the female disciples even started crying.
Only Li Wuyu and the Tower Master, one a Perfected Saint and one a Perfected Saint, were suspicious of Gu Xuan's attitude.
The calmer and more cooperative Gu Xuan appeared, the more they felt that something was fishy! What a joke, since when was Guest Elder Gu Xuan so easy to talk to?
After forcing him to compromise, he still wanted to have a good ending?
Was there such a good thing in the world?
However, Gu Xuan's actions were too unpredictable. There were only two words in their hearts: unfathomable.
"Guest Elder Gu Xuan, this is my sincerity. Please accept it!"
Ke Jiuji smiled and waved his right hand. A total of thirty pills flew to Gu Xuan.
Gu Xuan sniffed lightly and scanned with his soul power. He confirmed that these pills were the antidotes to eliminate the Five Colored Gu Wasp larvae.
After taking the pills, the poison in the bodies of the elders and disciples of the ancient pagoda lineage would be immediately removed.
"Daoist Jiuji, you are indeed a man of your words."
Gu Xuan waved his right sleeve, and the thirty pills flew to the mouths of the elders and disciples.
Without the slightest hesitation, the crowd swallowed it in one go.
There would be no problem with the pills that had been verified by Guest Elder Gu Xuan.
Very soon, Gu Xuan confirmed that all of the elders and disciples were already fine.
At this moment, the Pagoda Master's eyes became a little unfriendly.
He whispered, "Brother Gu Xuan, the pills are already in our hands. What plan do you have? Let's kill that bastard Ke Jiuji!"
Gu Xuan rolled his eyes at the Pagoda Master.
He had honestly made an oath, and there were almost no loopholes in it. How could he go back on his words?
"Please, the two of you can leave first!"
Gu Xuan did not bother with the Pagoda Master. Instead, he made an inviting gesture to Ke Jiuji and Ke Xiaodu.
Ke Jiuji clasped his hands at Gu Xuan and walked to the spacetime tunnel.
"Pagoda Master, Guest Elder Gu Xuan, we did have many misunderstandings before.
However, we have all been trapped here for a hundred thousand years. Now that we are free, we can be considered to have a new life. What grudges can't we put down?
I, Ke Jiuji, solemnly promise that after leaving this place, the Nine Poison Valley will not take the initiative to provoke the ancient pagoda lineage.
I hope that you can consider it.
Even if we can't be friends, we shouldn't be enemies.
Everyone, farewell! "
Before Ke Jiuji left, his words were full of sincerity and were of a high standard.
In a daze, the crowd almost thought that the person in front of them was a respected elder, not the vicious Ke Jiuji who killed without blinking.
Fortunately, this feeling disappeared in the blink of an eye.
They quickly understood.
The rise of the ancient pagoda lineage was unstoppable, and the decline of the Nine Poison Valley was destined.
Ke Jiuji's words and humble attitude were only used to confuse everyone and buy some time for the Nine Poison Valley to develop.
The ancient pagoda lineage and the Nine Poison Valley were like fire and water. After leaving, how could there be peace between the two?
Dream on! If the situation was reversed, Ke Jiuji would probably lead people to the ancient pagoda lineage's nest the next day after leaving.
Moreover, Ke Jiuji's words were probably something that even he himself would not believe.
The crowd was sure that after Ke Jiuji returned, the first thing he would do was move the Nine Poison Valley's nest away.
"Let's go, Xiaodu, follow me closely!"
Ke Jiuji grabbed Ke Xiaodu's shoulder and moved, passing through the space-time gate and jumping into the space-time passage, disappearing without a trace.
The Pagoda Master rushed to the space-time gate with a whoosh.
"Gu Xuan, they've already left. The oath you made is no longer bound.
Should we chase after them and kill them, or should we disrupt the space-time passage and let them fall into the space-time turbulence and wait for death? Hurry up and make a decision, otherwise, they'll really leave! "
The Pagoda Master urged.
The group of elders and disciples also looked at Gu Xuan and prepared.
As long as Gu Xuan gave the order, they would immediately chase after them.
Gu Xuan did not give the order. He just looked at the space-time gate with a grave expression.
"You don't have to do anything! Let's just watch from here.
The debt of time owed must be paid.
Ke Jiuji is already a dead man. "
Gu Xuan seemed to be talking to everyone, but also seemed to be talking to himself.
He took out the Young Master Token and waved it gently in the void. A ray of light flew out and turned into a dark light mirror suspended in the air.
In the dark light mirror was the scene in the depths of a dark valley.
That was the other side of the space-time passage!
