Chapter 1166 607: Too Quick a Death
His words were indeed true; there was no retreat anymore. Lying before him seemed to be only one path—to kill Gu Sheng and take the inheritance from his body. As for anything else, he couldn't spare the time nor the effort.
Gu Sheng suppressed his anger and questioned Kunpeng Taoist: "So what do you want?"
Kunpeng Taoist would definitely not let Gongsun Yue go easily, and might even use her against him. But now that Gongsun Yue was in the hands of the opponent, he really had no other choice but to comply with Kunpeng Taoist's wishes.
Tianxuan Divine Girl saw the situation and secretly sent a voice transmission to Gu Sheng: "You stall him first, I'll find a way to save her."
Gu Sheng hurriedly asked: "How confident are you?"
With a sense of helplessness in her voice, Tianxuan Divine Girl replied: "Fifty percent."
The Sun and Moon Space-Time Divine Ship she controlled inherently contained extremely powerful Power of Space-Time Law; with this treasure, she could easily cross the void and rescue Gongsun Yue.
But she was in poor condition, and the Sun and Moon Space-Time Divine Ship had suffered serious damage, greatly reducing its power. Otherwise, her confidence could be at least eighty percent.
"Only fifty percent, it's too low."
Gu Sheng shook his head, directly rejecting Tianxuan Divine Girl's goodwill, replied, "Let me handle it myself."
He then pushed his sharp and oppressive aura straight towards Kunpeng Taoist.
Kunpeng Taoist looked at Gu Sheng and sneered: "What do I want? Kneel on the ground and crawl over bit by bit, then I'll let her go."
He raised Gongsun Yue high, his powerful soul power transforming into a sharp blade, aimed straight at Gongsun Yue's forehead.
Judging by his posture, if Gu Sheng refused even slightly, the soul power blade in his hand would pierce through Gongsun Yue's head, killing her on the spot.
Tianxuan Divine Girl hurriedly shouted: "Gu Sheng, don't listen to him, he's deliberately torturing you. Even if you kneel, he won't let Gongsun Yue go."
Tianxuan Divine Girl knew that Kunpeng Taoist was simply insane. Making Gu Sheng cripple his legs wasn't enough; he even wanted Gu Sheng to kneel.
Breaking his legs would only bring physical pain, and though it wouldn't be easy for Gu Sheng's Sacred Body to recover, it wasn't impossible.
But if Gu Sheng knelt before Kunpeng Taoist, who had deep hatred against him, the blow to Gu Sheng's Dao Heart would be immense and destructive. This impact might follow Gu Sheng for a lifetime.
Surprisingly, Gu Sheng actually said: "Fine, I agree."
He agreed so straightforwardly that everyone present was stunned.
"Gu Sheng!"
Tianxuan Divine Girl could hardly believe her ears, her eyes widened as she looked at Gu Sheng.
Gongsun Yue struggled desperately in Kunpeng Taoist's hand, making "mmm" sounds, filled with resistance. She didn't want Gu Sheng to suffer such torment for her.
Gu Sheng seemed not to hear their calls; he activated his spiritual power, carefully supporting the Ancient Reincarnation Bell, then lay on top of it, slowly flying towards Kunpeng Taoist.
Seeing Gu Sheng flying over, Kunpeng Taoist felt a wave of unease, as if sensing some danger. He quickly shouted: "Don't come over, just kneel there!"
Gu Sheng gently nodded, stopped in place, and began to gradually slide off from the Ancient Reincarnation Bell. His legs had been broken, and each movement brought heart-wrenching pain.
Even with his incredible willpower, he was in such pain that his face turned pale, sweat pouring down, his clothes soaked.
He struggled to slide down from the Ancient Reincarnation Bell, falling to the ground.
He wanted to kneel as Kunpeng Taoist demanded, but his legs were broken, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't do it. This scene made Kunpeng Taoist extremely displeased.
Kunpeng Taoist said viciously: "I'll give you fifty breaths. If you can't kneel by then, I'll kill her!"
His voice carried a manic undertone, and Gu Sheng had no doubt that if he didn't comply, Kunpeng Taoist would indeed harm Gongsun Yue.
Gu Sheng gritted his teeth, trying again to kneel.
Kunpeng Taoist looked at Gu Sheng's miserable appearance with pride, laughing loudly: "Haha, truly ridiculous."
Kunpeng Taoist dragged Gongsun Yue, walking towards Gu Sheng. His true purpose was always to kill Gu Sheng.
He needed to get close to Gu Sheng to strike, but he also played it safe and didn't approach too closely. When he reached fifty meters from Gu Sheng, he stopped.
This distance allowed him to maximize the strength of his soul power attack, yet have enough time to react if Gu Sheng made a move.
"Thirty breaths have passed!"
Kunpeng Taoist coldly shouted. Within his Sea of Consciousness, his soul power attack was quietly brewing. He planned to strike at the moment Gu Sheng knelt to him.
He thought, at that time, Gu Sheng would be feeling stifled, miserable, and at the same time least alert. He planned to use Gongsun Yue as a shield, surely able to kill Gu Sheng.
At the exit of the Immortal Temple, there appeared a dense surge of Demonic Qi. This surge of Demonic Qi came extremely abruptly, causing many around to cry out in alarm.
Gu Sheng saw Qiankun Venerate King approaching the Immortal Temple without any surprise, as if he had expected him to come.
But Kunpeng Taoist seemed a bit anxious; he didn't want all his painstaking planning to end up benefiting Qiankun Venerate King.
"Hurry up!"
Kunpeng Taoist impatiently urged Gu Sheng, "I've run out of patience."
