Chapter 1205 - 626: No Harm Will Come
Chapter 1205: Chapter 626: No Harm Will Come
Qiankun Venerate King took Gu Yu, a cruel smile appearing on his face. "Gu Sheng, today is your end!"
Gu Sheng saw his sister fall into Qiankun Venerate King’s hands, and the anger in his heart reached its peak.
He rushed towards Wang Zhu again recklessly, his body already extremely weak, and this charge only made him spit out another mouthful of blood.
Taiyi Immortal King’s eyes showed a murderous intent. He quickly formed seals with his hands, preparing to strike fiercely at Gu Sheng.
"Gu Sheng, meet your death!"
Just as Taiyi Immortal King’s attack was about to hit Gu Sheng, the wooden box in Gu Sheng’s embrace shook violently. With a "crack" sound, the wooden box shattered.
Dozens of marriage contracts floated out from the box, dancing in the air.
Everyone was dumbfounded, stopping their actions, their eyes falling on those marriage contracts.
A gust of wind blew by, and a marriage contract fell, its open page prominently displaying the names "Gu Sheng" and "Luo Xi."
Luo Xi was precisely the name of the Tianxuan Divine Girl.
Seeing his and "Luo Xi’s" name on the marriage contract, Gu Sheng’s entire body trembled violently with excitement, mumbling, "This... what’s going on?"
His hands instinctively reached out, trying to grasp that marriage contract.
Taiyi Immortal King’s originally full-force attack stopped when he saw that marriage contract.
"Could this ’Luo Xi’ be the real name of the Tianxuan Divine Girl? If so, what is this marriage contract about?"
The expression on his face became extremely complex.
When Tianxuan Divine Girl saw that marriage contract, her entire body shook.
Her gaze was fixed tightly on the names on the marriage contract, her eyes showing confusion at first, as if remembering something, her complexion turned pale.
Involuntarily, the image of her mother on her deathbed emerged in her mind.
Her mother was lying weakly in bed, holding her hand, saying intermittently, "Xi’er... when you were young... I made a marriage agreement with a distinguished person... if there’s a fate in the future... you will meet him..."
Tianxuan Divine Girl’s lips trembled slightly; she never expected to see this marriage contract today in such a way.
Taiyi Immortal King withdrew his attack, turned to Qiankun Venerate King, and asked sternly, "Qiankun, is this ’Luo Xi’ the name of the Tianxuan Divine Girl?"
Qiankun Venerate King’s face changed slightly upon hearing Taiyi Immortal King’s question, not answering directly, with a somewhat unnatural expression.
In everyone’s eyes, his demeanor already equaled an admission.
Gu Sheng seized this gap, unwilling to miss the opportunity.
He lightly tapped his foot, rushing toward Wang Zhu’s direction.
Wang Zhu, stunned by the earlier change, was caught off guard.
Gu Sheng appeared before him and with a swing of his arm delivered a punch aimed directly at Wang Zhu’s chest.
Wang Zhu reacted, wanting to dodge, but it was already too late.
The punch landed heavily on his chest, Wang Zhu groaned, and staggered a few steps back.
Gu Sheng took advantage of the situation, snatching back his sister Gu Yu from Wang Zhu.
He held Gu Yu tightly behind him, his eyes full of vigilance.
Wang Zhu was furious, wanting to snatch Gu Yu again.
Just as he moved, a holy light descended from the sky, enveloping him.
It was Tianlan Saint Mother taking action, her holy light binding Wang Zhu tightly, leaving him unable to move.
Wang Zhu could only watch helplessly as Gu Sheng left with Gu Yu, filled with reluctance yet helpless.
Tianxuan Divine Girl had calmed herself slightly, looking at Gu Sheng with questioning eyes, said, "Why didn’t you take out this marriage contract earlier? If not for its appearance, today you and I would have fallen into peril."
Gu Sheng, hearing Tianxuan Divine Girl’s question, lowered his head slightly, explaining, "This box was left to me by my master, who set a barrier within it. I hadn’t discovered this marriage contract until the box exploded just now."
Tianxuan Divine Girl, listening to his explanation, though still puzzled, chose not to delve further.
She turned to Qiankun Venerate King and Taiyi Immortal King, her eyes full of authority, loudly questioning, "Now that the marriage contract has appeared, do you still doubt his identity?"
Taiyi Immortal King’s face showed embarrassment, he coughed lightly and said, "Since the marriage contract is presented, there’s nothing to question."
Despite saying this, annoyance filled his heart, feeling that today had gone terribly wrong, not only failing to capture Gu Sheng but also causing such a blunder.
Upon hearing Taiyi Immortal King’s words, Tianxuan Divine Girl nodded slightly and said, "If that’s the case, Taiyi Immortal King, you can leave. Should you persist, I shall report to my father to handle this matter."
Even though displeased by Tianxuan Divine Girl’s words, Taiyi Immortal King knew he was at fault; if truly escalated to her father, he’d be in trouble.
He glanced at Qiankun Venerate King and said, "Qiankun, let’s leave; today’s affair is a failure."
However, Qiankun Venerate King acted as though he hadn’t heard Taiyi Immortal King, exuding murderous intent, glaring fiercely at Gu Sheng.
He let out a long howl, his aura wildly increasing.
Initially at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, he forcefully broke through the shackles, stepping into the half-step Earth Palace Realm.
But his momentum didn’t stop there, continuing to rise, entering the initial Earth Palace Realm.
Taiyi Immortal King stood aside, frowning tightly.
Worried that the enmity between Tianlan Sacred Land and Qiankun Venerate King would lead Tianlan Sacred Land to secretly sabotage and ruin Qiankun Venerate King’s grand plans.
"Venerate King, this Tianlan Sacred Land has always been against us; surely they won’t let this go easily, be on guard,"
Taiyi Immortal King’s tone was urgent, trying to persuade Qiankun Venerate King to act cautiously.
Qiankun Venerate King snorted coldly, "Hmph, Taiyi Immortal King, you’re too timid. If it weren’t for your earlier reluctance, would I have needed to act personally? The plan to torture Gu Sheng in despair was ruined because of you."
Though dissatisfaction lingered in Taiyi Immortal King’s heart, he dared not reveal too much in front of Qiankun Venerate King, swallowing his grievances.
Qiankun Venerate King, being the Young Master of the Supreme Immortal Sect, held a high position within the sect, compelling even an Immortal King like Taiyi to tread carefully.
Qiankun Venerate King scanned the surroundings, his eyes filled with arrogance and confidence.
"As the Young Master of the Supreme Immortal Sect, they dare not meddle lightly."
Saying this, he fiercely glared at Tianlan Saint Mother. It was she who had blocked his attack that day, allowing Gu Sheng to escape, a grudge he never forgot.
Taiyi Immortal King immediately understood.
Intuiting Qiankun Venerate King’s meaning, he didn’t hesitate, chanting incantations and then shouted, "Words and Laws Follow!"
Tremendous immortal power surged from his body, spreading all around, encompassing the entire Tianlan Sacred Land.
Under this immortal power’s envelope, everything within Tianlan Sacred Land lay exposed to Taiyi Immortal King’s oversight.
Be it the slightest magical artifact fluctuation or the traces of Array operation, none escaped his Divine Thought surveillance. Any anomaly could be detected and annihilated instantly.
Within Tianlan Sacred Land, the Holy Master sensed this immense immortal pressure, his face turned pale.
Crushed under Taiyi Immortal King’s might, all he felt was trembling, so overwhelmed that even thoughts of resistance vanished.
Other disciples in the land, too, were terrified by the immortal might, with many even collapsing on the ground.
Standing beside Gu Sheng, Gu Yu looked at the scene before her, face turning pale in fright.
She clutched Gu Sheng’s sleeve tightly, trembling as she spoke, "Brother, what should we do? They’re too powerful."
Gu Sheng gently patted Gu Yu’s hand, comforting, "Yu’er, don’t be afraid, if the sky falls, I will hold it up for you, nothing will happen."
Hearing Gu Sheng’s words, Qiankun Venerate King burst into laughter. His laughter bore immense power, radiating outward.
Wherever it reached, a hundred-meter radius of Void trembled violently.
