Chapter 1091: Don't let them get away!
Gu Heng secretly praised Gu Ce's professional attitude and then stopped lingering.
Now that the play has progressed this far, it would be incredibly rude of him, the "protagonist," to linger and wait for others to get their comeuppance. Besides, being stared at by thousands of eyes, that unease and social anxiety began to creep over him again.
The wind is getting strong, let's get out of here.
As soon as a thought crossed Gu Heng's mind, the Swift Boots beneath his feet seemed to sense the urgency. The light that had been faintly emanating from them suddenly intensified, only to mysteriously recede into nothingness in the next moment.
In the blink of an eye, they vanished into the distance.
As planned, he was to wait for Gu Ce to come forward and meet him.
The luck that he stole still needs to be returned, but what will happen after returning it to Gu Ce... Heh, that's none of his business.
Before everyone's eyes, the powerful figure who had just "slain" two guardians of the divine kingdoms with a single strike, whose origins were unknown to many, suddenly vanished, leaving behind only the shattered auspicious clouds of fortune and the two old guardians whose fates were unknown.
There was deathly silence between heaven and earth.
The once bustling and deafening Divine Capital Cloud Peak was now so quiet that even the wind seemed to have been cut off by that single slash.
Everyone remained in the same position as a moment ago, some with their mouths agape in astonishment, others with their eyes wide open, their gazes fixed on the two falling figures.
Qingfeng and Qingren are symbols of the foundation of the Qinggu Divine Kingdom. They are two living legends who have long since entered the eternal life stage of the conceptual realm!
No one believed that any force in the world could instantly dismantle the alliance between these two.
of course.
Even within the conceptual realm, there are varying levels of strength. Although these two revered enshrined beings are not the closest to the gods or the most powerful beings, they are still the strongest beings in the Qinggu Divine Kingdom who can step forward to stabilize the situation during such a crisis!
Then, like puppets whose strings had been cut, the terrifying aura around them, which was originally enough to distort space and suppress eternity, melted away completely the moment they came into contact with that ordinary sword light.
There were no earth-shattering explosions, no dazzling light effects, only the most basic "erasure".
"boom."
Two muffled thuds sounded almost simultaneously.
The two elderly deities slammed heavily onto the white jade ground of the Cloud Peak Plaza, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Their chests were still rising and falling, but their eyes were closed, their faces were ashen, and their extraordinary cultivation seemed to have been forcibly dispersed by some extremely domineering force, and was still dissipating.
It wasn't until quite some time after Gu Heng disappeared that the stagnant air seemed to begin to flow again.
"Gulu..."
Someone, in the dead silence, struggled to roll their throat.
The sound was like a thunderclap, instantly waking up the frozen crowd on the cloud peak.
"One strike! He was defeated with just one strike!"
"Even if a deity himself were to arrive, he couldn't possibly defeat them so easily, could he? Just what realm is this person at?!"
Fear spread like wildfire among the guests.
This strike brought forth a tremor from the depths of the soul at the absolute power!
Even Zhu Lie Sheng Wang and the others, who knew that there must be some unknown anomalies involved, were quite puzzled.
Is this real or fake?
If it were fake, that would be one thing; at most, it would mean that these two worshippers were also involved in the plan and were one of their own, acting on Gu Ce's orders. Since it was just an act, it would naturally crumble at the slightest touch.
But what if this is true?
Mr. Gu's strength is enough to instantly kill two Concept Realm experts, and he is the highest level of Eternal Life among them!
Qingfeng and Qingren were not dead, but their condition was more like they were on the verge of death than alive. They were probably just one step away from truly dying, and there was no chance of them being saved!
Where did the Imperial Dynasty find such a mysterious and astonishing fellow?
Think so.
Zhu Lie Sheng Wang's gaze decisively fell upon the private room where the Bao Que Imperial Court was located, but he could see that the expression on the face of the carefree Prince Lue was also uncertain, almost as if he had lost his parents.
After seeing this, how could one not understand?
At least Xiaoyao Lue was definitely kept in the dark.
"He beheaded the worshippers, seized their fortune, and then strolled away as if he were in a leisurely garden. This dragon's den and tiger's lair of the Azure Ancient Divine Kingdom was like his own backyard to him!"
"That slash...did you see it clearly?"
"See clearly my ass! I only saw a blur before my eyes, and those two worshippers collapsed. This is clearly a conceptual technique!"
The crowd was in an uproar.
Fear, excitement, speculation, and shock—a cacophony of emotions swirled in the air above the capital. Those prodigies who had been fighting tooth and nail for the remaining few karmic imprints all stopped, exchanging bewildered glances, their weapons feeling almost too hot to handle.
Compared to that ruthless person just now, what are they?
Are kids playing house?
It takes forever to fight for a business license mark, but this guy just reached out and tore off a huge chunk of the divine kingdom's fortune and took it with him!
Is this the gap?
In the midst of the chaos, Xiaobai, Su Jinxi, and Yuezi exchanged glances.
"The master has run away."
Xiao Bai slowly concealed his aura.
The three of them were also a little surprised. Gu Heng had not told them that such a thing would happen. Even though their cultivation levels were not high, the fortune of the Qinggu Divine Kingdom was already in ruins. Although the remaining fortune could be gathered again, the scale of the damage was already severe and difficult to heal.
What is he trying to do?
“That’s none of our business. He has his reasons.” A hint of disdain flashed in Su Jinxi’s charming cat-like eyes as she glanced around at the so-called prodigies who were standing there dumbfounded. “It seems that these people have never witnessed his power.”
"We should go now, since we've gotten what we wanted anyway."
Yuezi was more concerned with the very subtle malice hidden beneath this chaotic atmosphere.
Some force seems to have its eye on them.
Now that the three of them had obtained what they wanted, and Gu Heng had already left, there was no reason for them to stay and be made a fool of themselves.
"Stop them!"
Just then, a shrill roar rang out.
It was the official in charge of ceremonies who had been severely injured by the backlash of fortune. At this moment, his hair was disheveled and his face was covered in blood. He pointed at Xiaobai and the other two and roared hysterically, "That villain has escaped! These three aliens are his accomplices!"
"Capture them, interrogate them about the villain's whereabouts, and reclaim our fortune!"

It was too easy, I had no choice but to do it. Delta Force is utterly wicked, they tricked me back into this mess.
