Chapter 961: Chapter 504: Fearless of Life and Death (Part 2)
A flicker of rage flashed in Gu Sheng’s eyes; he knew these people from the Qingxia Sect had come for revenge after the previous conflict.
"Qingxia Sect? Heh heh..."
Gu Sheng chuckled coldly twice, then asked, "Was it you who burned down the village?"
"That’s right!"
The cultivator didn’t avoid the question and answered directly.
"He not only burned down the village but killed several people! These damned ones are truly despicable!"
Suddenly, a woman from Stone Village cried out.
Hearing this, Gu Sheng’s heart wrenched hard.
Murder!
Killing the simple people of Stone Village!
This is simply a path of self-destruction!
"Hoo..."
Gu Sheng took a deep breath and said coldly, "Qingxia Sect, you’re digging your own grave."
After speaking, Gu Sheng summoned the Fire Spirit Dagger.
"Swish!"
His figure was like a flash of lightning, charging toward those cultivators.
Er Gou and Shi Lou followed closely behind.
In an instant, the aura overflowed, and the cold wind surged!
Although their strength was not as great as Gu Sheng’s, they were more than capable of dealing with those bandits.
The battle quickly unfolded...
Gu Sheng’s Fire Spirit Dagger sliced through the air, leaving trails of fire that almost illuminated the entire sky.
Those cultivators weren’t weak either, but under Gu Sheng’s attack, they began to retreat.
Er Gou and Shi Lou also demonstrated their strength, weaving through the bandits and taking one down with every strike.
The villagers of Stone Village, seeing the figures of Gu Sheng and his companions, were filled with hope in their eyes.
They knew that Gu Sheng and his companions were the saviors of Stone Village.
"Er Gou! Show no mercy; showing kindness to bad people is slaughtering the good ones!"
A villager shouted loudly.
"Don’t worry, we’ll make them pay the price!"
Er Gou responded.
Spurred by the villagers’ encouragement, Er Gou fought even more fiercely.
At this moment, the crimson shade flickered in Er Gou and Shi Lou’s eyes, and their movements became even more swift.
Under their combined assault, the bandits fell one after another.
Soon, the corpses of the bandits piled up into a small hill, and blood stained the earth red.
"These two guys are not human! Not human!"
The morale of the bandits began to collapse.
They had never encountered such powerful opponents, and fear spread among them.
Er Gou and Shi Lou gave the bandits no chance to catch their breath, continuing their relentless assault.
In less than the time it takes to smoke a pipe, the last bandit lay on the ground, ending the massacre.
Er Gou and Shi Lou had no time to rest and immediately turned to join Gu Sheng in his fight against the cultivators.
Gu Sheng’s Fire Spirit Dagger danced in the air like a Fire Dragon, making it difficult for the cultivators to approach.
But the cultivators weren’t easy targets; they deployed various spells in an attempt to suppress Gu Sheng’s onslaught.
The addition of Er Gou and Shi Lou instantly changed the tide of the battle.
Shi Lou’s immense strength and Er Gou’s formidable divine ability became Gu Sheng’s most powerful support.
Soon, the three of them formed an indestructible triangular formation.
Attacks from any direction could be easily neutralized by them.
The cultivators started to feel the pressure, their spells powerless against Gu Sheng’s Fire Spirit Dagger, and Er Gou and Shi Lou’s close combat attacks left them unable to withstand.
At this moment, the cultivators tried to spread out, hoping to find a breakthrough point.
But every attempt was shattered by the trio’s seamless coordination.
In this fierce struggle, the cultivators gradually felt despair.
Their powers seemed so insignificant in the face of Gu Sheng, Er Gou, and Shi Lou.
Just then, a cunning cultivator conceived a plan.
His eyes scanned the battlefield quickly, finally settling on the elder of Stone Village—Elder Shi.
"Come on, old man!"
The cultivator swiftly turned, rushing towards Elder Shi with incredible speed, grabbing him in his hands.
At the same time, a sharp dagger was pressed against Elder Shi’s neck.
This sudden change left everyone in Stone Village stunned.
"Let go of Elder Shi!"
"You have no sense of martial honor! Attacking by surprise!"
"Release the elder, or you’ll regret it!"
The villagers immediately erupted in anger.
A cold glint flashed in Gu Sheng’s eyes; he hadn’t expected this guy to be so treacherous.
Unable to win, he resorted to taking a hostage to gain an advantage.
"If you dare to harm Elder Shi, I promise to shatter you into pieces!"
Gu Sheng said coldly.
But the cultivator wasn’t afraid, revealing a sinister smile: "That depends on your choice, Gu Sheng. I know your skills and that we can’t defeat you. Now I’m giving you a choice: strip yourself of your divine power, or... I’ll kill him!"
"You’re talking nonsense!"
Er Gou and Shi Lou were agitated.
They clenched their fists, eyes burning with anger, ready to rush forward and kill the cultivator.
But just as they were about to act, Elder Shi stopped them with his hoarse yet resolute voice, "Don’t be impulsive, children."
Elder Shi smiled as he looked at Gu Sheng, Er Gou, and Shi Lou.
At that moment, his eyes were filled with pride: "I’m happy to see you so brave. I believe you can protect Stone Village. From here on... it’s up to you!"
After speaking, Elder Shi did something unexpected by all.
He willingly moved towards the cultivator’s dagger.
"Pfft!"
The sharp blade instantly cut through his throat, and blood gushed out.
Gu Sheng, Er Gou, and Shi Lou were filled with disbelief.
At that moment, the flames of anger in their hearts reached their peak.
Elder Shi’s sacrifice ignited their deepest battle spirit, and at this moment, their power reached its zenith.
"Courting death!"
Gu Sheng roared, the Fire Spirit Dagger bursting with unprecedented brilliance.
Er Gou and Shi Lou also held nothing back, their power erupting as if to tear the night apart!
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The sound of explosions reverberated.
Under Gu Sheng and his companions’ fierce assault, the cultivators were like fragile pieces of paper, easily torn apart.
Their spells and defenses seemed so powerless in the face of Gu Sheng and his companions’ fury.
In the blink of an eye, all the cultivators from the Qingxia Sect lay in pools of blood, their lives completely ended.
Silence!
At this moment, time seemed to stand still.
Only the crackling of burning wood could be heard, and the sound of the night wind blowing.
The villagers of Stone Village surrounded Elder Shi’s body, filled with reluctance and reverence.
Gu Sheng, Er Gou, and Shi Lou stood silently by Elder Shi’s side, tears moistening their eyes.
"Elder Shi, we will surely protect Stone Village!"
"Rest assured, Er Gou and I have grown up; we won’t let the bandits bully us anymore!"
Er Gou and Shi Lou wiped their tears and spoke their vows from the heart.
"Hoo..."
Gu Sheng’s shoulders slightly slumped as he let out a long sigh.
At this moment, the term "fearless of death" seemed to take a tangible form.
"Er Gou, Shi Lou, now is not the time to grieve, wipe your tears, and let’s prepare to set out."
Gu Sheng said with a serious face.
At this point, Master Zhang came forward and asked, "Xiao Sheng, where are you planning to go?"
Looking at Elder Shi’s body, Gu Sheng said, "I plan to root out every trace of the Qingxia Sect!"
"What!"
Master Zhang was taken aback, "The Qingxia Sect is a large force, you..."
"Yes! Root and branch!"
Shi Lou and Er Gou chimed in unison, then approached Gu Sheng, "Brother Sheng, tell us, what’s the plan?"
"Can you calm down for a bit? Just the three of you, planning to wipe out hundreds of cultivators from the Qingxia Sect? Besides, their mountain gate is guarded, with even the Supreme Elder overseeing it. It’s not so easy!"
Master Zhang was so anxious he was stomping his feet.
He didn’t want to see the young ones before him walk into their doom.
Stone Village still needed living strength to sustain it; they couldn’t just walk to their deaths!
