Chapter 1452: Chapter 749: Finally Out
“I told you, I don’t know.”
“Don’t know?”
Xu Hansong sneered as he approached, grabbing Xie He’s neck.
“This boy is your own brother, right? Can you bear to watch him die?”
Xie He’s face turned red, but he struggled to squeeze out a few words.
“Sis… don’t say…”
“Quite the backbone.”
Zhang Tianxing suddenly laughed, that smile sending chills down one’s spine.
He waved his hand, and Xie He was sent flying towards the Molten Rock Lake.
“No——!”
Xie Qingxuan screamed heart-wrenchingly.
Xie He’s body traced an arc before falling into the boiling magma. The scream only lasted a brief moment, and most of his body had turned to ash.
“Beast!”
Xie Qingxuan’s eyes were about to burst as she struggled to rush forward but was firmly held back by two disciples.
Zhang Tianxing walked up to her expressionlessly.
“Now, it’s your turn.”
He reached out and grabbed Xie Qingxuan’s chin.
“I’ll ask one last time, where is Gu Sheng?”
Xie Qingxuan’s eyes were filled with tears, yet she sneered.
“If he’s dead, why go through all this trouble? If he’s alive…”
She suddenly revealed a strange smile.
“Then you’re all dead meat.”
“Courting death!”
Zhang Tianxing was furious and raised his hand to throw her into the Molten Rock Lake.
“Won’t talk? Then die!”
Killer intent flashed in Zhang Tianxing’s eyes as he gripped Xie Qingxuan’s throat, lifting her whole body.
Xie Qingxuan’s feet left the ground, her face quickly reddening, yet she gritted her teeth stubbornly, a resolute look flashing in her eyes.
“I… will never… betray Senior Brother Gu…”
She squeezed these words out through her teeth, a sneer playing on her lips.
“He… will definitely… avenge me…”
“Courting death!”
Zhang Tianxing laughed in anger, his arm muscles bulging as he fiercely threw Xie Qingxuan towards the Molten Rock Lake a hundred meters away!
Xie Qingxuan’s body flew out, the wind howling past her ears.
She looked at the crimson magma coming closer, a flash of fear in her eyes quickly turning into peace.
“Senior Brother Gu—don’t come out!”
She gathered all her True Qi, her voice piercing through the heat waves above the Molten Rock Lake.
“Wait until your strength is enough… then take revenge… for us!”
Just as she was about to plunge into the magma, a crimson figure shot up from the boiling magma pool!
“Qingxuan!”
A familiar voice exploded beside her ear, and Xie Qingxuan suddenly felt her body lighten, falling into a hot yet solid embrace.
She opened her eyes, and the face she longed to see day and night appeared before her—sword-like brows, starry eyes, and a chiseled profile, but at this moment, those eyes burned with a terrifying rage.
“Gu… Senior Brother Gu?”
Xie Qingxuan’s voice trembled, unable to believe her own eyes.
Gu Sheng looked down at her, the anger in his eyes slightly subdued.
“It’s me.”
His gaze moved past Xie Qingxuan’s shoulder, looking towards the center of the Molten Rock Lake.
There, a humanoid figure almost charred to coal was slowly sinking into the magma, with only one hand remaining above, its five fingers spread open as if pleading for help.
“Xie He…”
Gu Sheng’s voice was low, full of regret.
“I still didn’t make it in time.”
Xie Qingxuan followed his gaze, and tears immediately poured out uncontrollably.
“Senior Brother Xie… covered for me…”
“I know.”
Gu Sheng interrupted her, his voice cold and unyielding.
“I will repay this debt tenfold.”
“Gu Sheng?!”
An angry and shocked shout came from the shore. Zhang Tianxing and Xu Hansong stood at the edge of the Molten Rock Lake, their faces full of disbelief.
Behind them, disciples of the Divine Blood Sect and the Sun and Moon Sect quickly gathered, numbering more than twenty, with the lowest at the Peak of the Earth Martial Realm.
“You’re not dead?”
Zhang Tianxing squinted, then grinned maliciously.
“Perfect, today I’ll personally send you on your way!”
Xu Hansong stepped forward, speaking coldly.
“Molten Rock Lake anomaly, Linyin Pavilion disciple falls—surely Linyin Pavilion can have nothing to say about that.”
Gu Sheng landed slowly on a protruding rock by the shore with Xie Qingxuan in his arms.
He set Xie Qingxuan down, his gaze sweeping across the crowd on the other side, a sneer on his lips.
“Divine Blood Sect: three in the Heavenly Martial Realm, nine at the Peak of Earth Martial; Sun and Moon Sect: two in the Heavenly Martial Realm, eight at the Peak of Earth Martial… Not bad, all top-grade fertilizer.”
“Fertilizer?”
Zhang Tianxing was momentarily confused, then burst out laughing.
“Talking nonsense when you’re about to die!”
Gu Sheng fell silent, slowly raising his left arm. His sleeve slid down to reveal an arm covered in eerie patterns—those patterns writhed slowly beneath the skin.
“Heavenly Demon Vine, it’s time to feast.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the patterns on his left arm suddenly lit up with dazzling golden-red light!
The next moment, dozens of intertwining golden-red vines burst from his arm, growing rapidly in the wind, turning into terrifying Demon Plants as thick as bowls and hundreds of feet long in the blink of an eye!
“What is that?!”
Xu Hansong’s face changed dramatically, retreating hastily.
The surface of the vines was covered with sharp barbs, emitting a screeching “zizi” sound in the air.
The thickest vines first lunged at Zhang Tianxing, whose Qi-Blood was the most intense!
“Stop pretending!”
Zhang Tianxing shouted angrily, his Qi-Blood surging, forming a layer of blood-colored armor on his body.
He punched towards the oncoming vines.
“Bang!”
The fist collided with the vine, emitting the sound of metal clashing. Zhang Tianxing’s expression changed drastically—his punch, strong enough to split rocks, only left a shallow dent on the vine, the recoil making his tiger’s mouth numb!
“How is that possible?!”
While he was shocked, three vines silently approached from behind, leaving dozens of bloody marks on his back!
“Ah!”
Zhang Tianxing cried out in pain, blood spurting out. Strangely, the blood was instantly absorbed upon contact with the vine. The barbs on the blood-sucking vine visibly grew longer and sharper, exuding a baleful red glow.
“Protect Senior Brother Zhang!”
“Everyone, attack! Kill Gu Sheng!”
Only then did the disciples of the two sects react, summoning their weapons and charging at Gu Sheng and the vines. For a moment, Sword Qi, blade light, and fist shadows filled the sky.
