Chapter 839 - 443: Traitor Within the Supreme Mysterious Sect
Chapter 839: Chapter 443: Traitor Within the Supreme Mysterious Sect
The battle between the two became increasingly fierce.
The surrounding trees and rocks were shattered by their divine power.
On the ground, Ji Ziyue watched the two fighting in the air, worried for Gu Sheng.
Although Gu Sheng was slightly inferior in technique, his cultivation seemed to have greatly improved.
He could still contend with Hua Yunfei.
"Gu Sheng! Be careful!"
Ji Ziyue shouted loudly from below.
This shout, rather than calming the situation, enraged Hua Yunfei even more.
He couldn’t allow the woman he liked to cheer for another man!
"Take this!"
Hua Yunfei roared, and in an instant, the atmosphere of the entire space seemed to freeze.
"Whoosh!"
A sharp and fierce gust of wind came sweeping in.
Gu Sheng was momentarily stunned but drew on his divine power to resist.
"Clang clang clang!"
The two forces intertwined, producing a deafening sound.
"Bang!"
Gu Sheng, lacking in divine power, was hit by Hua Yunfei and was sent flying, landing heavily on the ground.
A cloud of dust rose, causing Ji Ziyue’s heart to ache.
"Gu Sheng! Are you okay?"
Ji Ziyue hurriedly flew over.
"Swish!"
Seeing this, Hua Yunfei waved his hand.
Ji Ziyue was instantly struck by a beam of light, her body flying backward several hundred meters before stopping.
"Prepare to die!"
Hua Yunfei said as he prepared to launch one final strike at Gu Sheng.
Seeing this, Gu Sheng’s eyes narrowed, and he suddenly wielded the Fire Spirit Dagger.
As soon as the dagger appeared, the surrounding air became scorching.
"Swish swish swish!"
Flames flickered around Gu Sheng.
"This..."
Hua Yunfei felt the powerful spiritual power of the Fire Spirit Dagger, and his expression became solemn.
While Hua Yunfei was momentarily distracted, Gu Sheng suddenly exerted his strength.
The Fire Spirit Dagger unleashed numerous fiery arrows toward Hua Yunfei.
Hua Yunfei drew upon his divine power, forming a golden protective shield around his body.
"Boom boom boom!"
The fiery arrows exploded upon touching the shield.
Waves of air spread out from Hua Yunfei as the center.
These overlapping airwaves caused significant shock to Hua Yunfei’s heart meridian.
"Damn...this...cough cough cough..."
Inside the protective shield, Hua Yunfei coughed heavily, resigned.
Inwardly, he knew that if he continued fighting, he would surely be injured.
Thus, he decided to retreat temporarily.
"Gu Sheng, consider yourself lucky this time."
Hua Yunfei snorted coldly, then quickly retracted his protective shield, preparing to leave the scene.
"Trying to leave?"
There was no way Gu Sheng would let him escape so easily.
He quickly conjured a wall of fire, blocking Hua Yunfei’s path.
Seeing this, Hua Yunfei had no choice but to stop and face Gu Sheng.
"Hua Yunfei, hand over the Mystic Sect Treasure Bead, or don’t think about leaving here."
Gu Sheng said coldly.
There was a hint of hesitation in Hua Yunfei’s eyes.
But upon seeing the Fire Spirit Dagger in Gu Sheng’s hand, his resolve seemed to firm up.
He knew he couldn’t easily deal with the treasure in Gu Sheng’s hand.
"Fine! Here, take it!"
With that, Hua Yunfei reluctantly took out an embroidered box from his bosom and tossed it to Gu Sheng.
"This is the Mystic Sect Treasure Bead you want."
Hua Yunfei’s voice was filled with unwillingness.
Gu Sheng caught the box, opened it, and sure enough, it was the Mystic Sect Treasure Bead.
Gu Sheng put away the box and coldly said to Hua Yunfei, "Hua Yunfei, your actions have already betrayed the Supreme Mysterious Sect. You’d better go back and plead guilty to the Sect Leader."
"Plead guilty? Let them wait!"
With that, Hua Yunfei turned and swiftly left the Fire Domain.
Gu Sheng did not pursue, as his goal was already achieved.
He turned to Ji Ziyue and asked, "Ziyue, it’s safe now. Are you okay?"
"I’m fine, not injured."
Ji Ziyue nodded.
The two shared a smile and then left the Fire Domain together, intending to safely return the Mystic Sect Treasure Bead to the Supreme Mysterious Sect.
Thus, Gu Sheng, with the Mystic Sect Treasure Bead and Ji Ziyue, returned to the Supreme Mysterious Sect.
They headed straight for Li Ruoyu’s Zhuo Peak.
"Senior."
Gu Sheng said as he handed the Mystic Sect Treasure Bead back to Li Ruoyu.
Li Ruoyu looked at the Mystic Sect Treasure Bead and nodded with satisfaction, "Gu Sheng, thank you for your efforts this time."
Gu Sheng smiled, "What do you mean, senior? As a member of the Supreme Mysterious Sect, this is what I should do."
"Yes, so am I."
Ji Ziyue said with a grin.
The time spent with Gu Sheng always made Ji Ziyue feel very comfortable.
"And what about Hua Yunfei?"
Li Ruoyu asked.
Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng sighed softly and then explained the situation with Hua Yunfei in detail.
"Hua Yunfei..."
Li Ruoyu, upon hearing it, frowned deeply.
He hadn’t expected Hua Yunfei to do such a thing.
Immediately, Li Ruoyu contacted the elders of other main peaks to discuss countermeasures.
...
Quickly, several Five Elements Elders from Ling Peak arrived at Zhuo Peak to learn about the Mystic Sect Treasure Bead and Hua Yunfei’s incident.
"Gu Sheng, you’ve handled this very well this time."
Elder Jin praised.
"However, the matter with Hua Yunfei is no small matter; we must handle it cautiously."
Elder Mu frowned with a worried look.
"Let the Ji family come, I’m not afraid. How dare he harm our Supreme Mysterious Sect!"
Elder Huo’s fiery temper flared up at once.
At this moment, Ji Ziyue suddenly stepped forward: "Elders, may I say a few words?"
"Ziyue, go ahead."
Li Ruoyu said.
"Everyone knows I’m from the Ji family and aware of the Ji family’s strength. If we clash head-on, it will only end in mutual destruction. So, why not let Gu Sheng temporarily leave the Supreme Mysterious Sect, go outside to lay low, and come back when things have calmed down."
Ji Ziyue suggested.
"Hmm."
Gu Sheng nodded, knowing that this was for his safety.
"I feel Ziyue’s suggestion is right."
Gu Sheng stood out and said.
Li Ruoyu hesitated slightly and then looked at the elders, "I agree with Ziyue’s suggestion, after all, if this scandal spreads internally..."
"Hmm, that’s true."
"I think it’s feasible too."
The elders nodded in agreement.
Seeing the elders all agree, Li Ruoyu looked at Ji Ziyue and said, "Ziyue, you will stay at the Supreme Mysterious Sect during this time and continue your cultivation. I will arrange for someone to ensure your safety."
Ji Ziyue respectfully bowed, "Yes, senior."
Subsequently, after the elders left, Li Ruoyu took Gu Sheng and Ji Ziyue and left the Supreme Mysterious Sect.
"Senior, where do you plan to send me?"
Gu Sheng asked Li Ruoyu beside him.
"Now, the area around the Southern Domain is unsafe; it’s better to head to the Northern Territory."
Li Ruoyu sighed slightly.
"Northern Territory? Crossing the Void?"
Gu Sheng was taken aback.
Li Ruoyu nodded, "That’s right. Now, crossing the void from the Supreme Mysterious Sect is somewhat troublesome. Going to the Carefree Gate would be more appropriate."
"Carefree Gate? Is that the sect closest to the Northern Territory?"
Gu Sheng asked.
Li Ruoyu nodded, "Yes."
After speaking, Li Ruoyu took out a jade pendant from his chest and handed it to Gu Sheng.
"This jade pendant is a Carefree Pass; with it, you can smoothly enter the Carefree Gate."
Li Ruoyu said earnestly.
Gu Sheng took the jade pendant and carefully examined it.
The jade pendant was verdant throughout, engraved with a winding dragon.
The dragon’s eyes glowed with a clear light, exuding strong spiritual power.
Gu Sheng couldn’t help but feel a surge of anticipation, mixed with a bit of nervousness.
"Senior, isn’t this too valuable?"
Gu Sheng asked.
"It’s fine, it’s just being used where it’s needed."
Li Ruoyu smiled slightly.
"Thank you, senior!"
Gu Sheng made a fist and palm salute to Li Ruoyu, then turned around and flew towards the direction of the Carefree Gate.
Finally, after a long flight, Gu Sheng arrived at the entrance of the Carefree Gate.
The sect was grand and magnificent, with an imposing aura matching that of the Supreme Mysterious Sect.
"Phew..."
Gu Sheng clutched the jade pendant tightly, took a deep breath, and mentally prepared himself.
"Creak..."
Gu Sheng gently pushed open the large door of the Carefree Gate.
Inside was a scene of prosperity, where disciples came and went, each cultivating, creating a bustling atmosphere.
