"Escape? Do you think Ying Tian Sect is a place where you can come and go as you please? "Gu Xuan's figure shot out. In the blink of an eye, he had closed the distance between him and the barefoot old man.
The barefoot old man sneered, "My bare feet are not for decoration. Not to mention you, even if a three-star Martial Emperor came here, he might not be able to catch up to me. I am known as the Solitary Wanderer. You want to kill me? Dream on! I am a guest of the Immortal Sword Sect. I am only here to investigate under the orders of the Great Elder. I have no ill intentions. If you kill me, wait for the revenge of the Immortal Sword Sect! "
After saying that, the barefoot old man's body stirred up a gust of wind. His speed suddenly increased, and in a moment, the distance between him and Gu Xuan increased.
Gu Xuan smirked, "What an idiot. Immortal Sword Sect? Even the Great Elder of the Immortal Sword Sect, the so-called strongest martial artist of the Immortal Sword Sect, was defeated by the Ying Tian Sect. You still dare to come? Do you really think you can run away? "
The God Slaying Bone Spear was like a ray of light that shot out from Gu Xuan's hand. It contained the power of flames that had been condensed to the extreme. It pierced through the void and caught up with the barefoot old man.
The barefoot old man was running wildly. Although he had lost both his arms, it was nothing to an Martial Emperor. He could heal them with some effort.
However, this Gu Xuan must be killed as soon as possible. He heard from the Great Elder of the Immortal Sword Sect that Gu Xuan was only a seven-star Martial Emperor. Not long after, he was already a three-star Martial Emperor. His combat strength was comparable to a one-star Martial Emperor. This was too heaven-defying!
If he was allowed to grow, the Ying Tian Sect would become the next large sect in the southeast region. It would be comparable to the overlords of the southeast region, the Black Sword Sect and the Divine Illumination Sect.
The barefoot old man's gaze was sinister as he muttered: "The reason why he was able to enter so quickly must be because of the Flame Devil Ancient Mansion. As a scout sent by the Xuanjian sect to the Immortal Sword Sect, I must report this news. I … "
Gu Xuan looked at the barefoot old man from afar. He smirked and said, "In!"
Chi!
Before the barefoot old man could finish his muttering, he felt a huge force coming from his abdomen. Blood spurted out as his body flew forward uncontrollably, crashing into a large tree.
The God-Slaying Bone Spear was like a divine nail that nailed the barefoot old man to the tree, rendering him immobile.
"No, impossible!" The barefoot old man's mouth continued to bleed. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
"This … this …"
Chen Yu and the others widened their eyes. They simply couldn't believe what was happening before their eyes. A bone spear had traveled a distance of a thousand feet. Yet, it was still able to pierce through a One-star Martial Emperor powerhouse!
If it was close combat, then how strong would Gu Xuan be?
A nightmarish voice came from behind the barefooted old man. "I've said it before, you can't escape. You can only choose how to die. Look at your current state of death. Where is the dignity of an Emperor Realm expert? "
"If you kill me, the Yingtian Palace will definitely be annihilated," the barefoot old man threatened. "If you release me and hand over the Flame Demon Ancient Mansion, I can …"
"No need. I know you're not from the Immortal Sword Sect. The strongest experts of the Three Major Sects joined forces and were still defeated. Now, in the Southeast region, there are only two or three sects that dare to say that they can annihilate the Yingtian Palace. Since you went to the Immortal Sword Sect as a scout, it seems that the force behind you should be the Black Sword Sect, right? "Gu Xuan said indifferently.
The barefoot old man's face was filled with despair. "I was careless. I didn't expect that you would be able to guess the force behind me just based on my words."
Gu Xuan shook his head and said, "Of course it's not just based on your words. From the moment you came to the Yingtian Sect, you've already revealed a flaw. The Three Major Sects and the Yingtian Palace have been opposing each other for many years. Everyone already knows the root of the matter. Why would they need to send a scout? You're a dignified Emperor Realm expert. Are you stupid because you're undercover? The Immortal Sword Sect sent you here to kill with a borrowed knife. Don't you know? "
Puff.
The barefoot old man spat out another mouthful of blood. He recalled that when the Immortal Sword Great Elder instructed him to investigate the Yingtian Palace, he actually promised to use the sect's treasure, the Ice Flame Divine Sword. Now that he thought about it, it was all a trick. The Immortal Sword Great Elder didn't think that he could return alive!
Puff!
Gu Xuan pulled out the God Slaying Bone Spear that nailed the barefoot old man. The barefoot old man let out a muffled groan as his last bit of life was cut off.
At this moment, a ray of light flew in the sky from the direction of the seven-story pagoda of the Yingtian Sect.
"Supreme Elder!" Gu Xuan bowed.
"Brother Mo, your strength has improved again in such a short time." Elder Zi flew over from afar. He had been guarding against the barefoot old man's escape.
Mo Jingyun laughed and said modestly, "It was just a stroke of luck."
Gu Xuan narrowed his eyes. He had already seen that Mo Jingyun was already a two-star Emperor Realm expert.
For a hundred years, Mo Jingyun had been stuck at the peak of the Ancestor Realm. His foundation was solid, and few people could surpass him. At least before he became a Great Emperor, Mo Jingyun's cultivation path would be extremely smooth.
Therefore, Gu Xuan wasn't surprised. However, Elder Zi was envious of this speed of improvement.
"Who is this person? How dare he trespass into the Yingtian Sect?" Mo Jingyun frowned and looked at the barefoot old man.
Gu Xuan smiled faintly. "A one-star Emperor Realm expert from the Black Sword Sect. He sneaked into the Immortal Sword Sect, but he didn't even know that he was being schemed against."
"One-star Emperor Realm expert!" Mo Jingyun looked at Gu Xuan in shock. "You're already a three-star Emperor Realm expert, and you can kill a one-star Emperor Realm expert. This … this battle strength, you're worthy of being a Sky Realm expert!"
Mo Jingyun didn't know what to say anymore. Gu Xuan had shocked him too much.
After calming down, Mo Jingyun frowned. "Does the Black Sword Sect also know about the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion?"
Gu Xuan shook his head. "I'm afraid they don't. Otherwise, this barefoot old man wouldn't be so stupid as to come to the Yingtian Sect to investigate. Look at his back, he didn't even notice that a restriction was planted. This restriction has the same origin as his flame energy. Someone must have collected his energy and used it. Every fifteen minutes, this restriction will emit energy ripples. It's very faint and hard for him to detect, but it's easy for others to sense it. "
Mo Jingyun suddenly understood. "What a profound scheme. The Immortal Sword Sect probably already knew that he was a scout, so they killed him with a borrowed knife. Once this person dies, the Black Sword Sect will definitely investigate. At that time, as long as the Immortal Sword Sect guides them, the Black Sword Sect will definitely find the Yingtian Sect. At that time, the Black Sword Sect will be furious, and the Yingtian Sect will be annihilated. "
Gu Xuan smiled coldly. "One plan after another. It's a very vicious plan. However, I don't think the Immortal Sword Sect will kill with a borrowed knife so quickly. They probably want to use the Yingtian Sect's weakness to threaten the Yingtian Sect and divide the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion. "
Mo Jingyun frowned even more. "The Yingtian Sect is only a small sect. Even if it's getting stronger, it's only comparable to a medium-sized sect. The Black Sword Sect is the largest sect in the southeast region. If they make things difficult for the Yingtian Sect, it will be a disaster."
Gu Xuan's eyes were filled with murderous intent. "Even if the Yingtian Sect attacks, it will take at least half a month from the time they know that the barefoot old man is dead to the time they gather people and come to the Yingtian Sect. Half a month is enough! "
Mo Jingyun muttered, "But …"
"Hahaha, this humble one is the Sect Master of the Immortal Sword Sect. I invite the Supreme Elder, Brother Mo, to come out of the sect for a chat."
Like the sound of a bell, a slightly arrogant voice resounded throughout the entire Yingtian Sect.
"You came quite quickly. Just what I wanted!"
