Chapter 120 Siege
As if he could see what they were thinking, the tall and burly man said, "When you kidnapped the Ninth Princess, didn't you say that you were a disciple of the Qian Kingdom's Lingxi Sect and that the Qian Kingdom's King Xiang was related to you?"
It turned out that ever since Gu Chi and his men forced the Emperor of Jiuli to return the bodies of the monks who died in battle from Heming Sect and other sects in the capital of Jiuli Dynasty, Lingxi Sect and Xiangwang Mansion had been targeted.
The Emperor of Jiuli directly ordered Lingxi Sect and Xiangwang Mansion to hand over the people, otherwise he would send troops to attack.
Because this time it was only targeting Lingxi Sect and Xiangwang Mansion, and not a national war, the Qian Kingdom court and the ten major immortal sects chose to turn a blind eye and did not interfere too much.
Lingxi Sect already hated Gu Chi to the core, and now they were under pressure from many sides. In a rage, they revealed the fact that Gu Chi was in possession of treasures such as the Luoshu Outline and the Autumn Silkworm Gold Silk.
The clues to the Luoshu Outline were found again, and the whole country of Qian was in an uproar. Many sects, schools and aristocratic families had secretly sent a large number of strong men to sneak into the territory of Jiuli Dynasty to track down Gu Chi's whereabouts.
The Luoshu is suspected to have come from the upper realm. Apart from the ten major immortal sects that inherited the ancient Taoist traditions, the skills of most sects and schools in the Qian Kingdom were more or less derived from it. It is regarded as the first of all scriptures. One can imagine how precious this page of the general outline is.
Speaking of the golden silk of autumn silkworms, this is a supreme treasure that even a Nascent Soul stage master can only encounter. Needless to say, its rarity is beyond words.
Not only the Qian Kingdom, but even the Jiuli Dynasty was jealous and wanted to seize these two treasures.
With the joint efforts of multiple forces, the whereabouts of Gu Chi and others were finally captured.
Look, so many people came directly. In addition to those who admired the Ninth Princess and wanted to avenge her in the past, most of the cultivators came for the two treasures of the sect, the Luoshu General Principles and the Autumn Silkworm Golden Silk.
"Hand over the Luoshu Outline and the Autumn Silkworm Golden Silk, and I might be able to leave your bodies intact." The tall and burly man in front said silently.
"Fuck you!" The big black dog Xuanyou cursed angrily and directly sacrificed the black gold coffin. It was only obedient to Gu Chi and would not give any face to others.
"My name is Hong Peng, the heir of the Hong family. I can leave you an intact body if I tell you to."
Gu Chi scratched his ears and said, "Hong what? I've never heard of it."
"I haven't heard of it. That's because you are ignorant."
From behind, more than a dozen monks caught up.
"Among the younger generation of our Hong family, only three people have reached the Golden Core stage, and Brother Hong Peng is one of them."
Gu Chi said without giving any face: "That can only be attributed to the incompetence of your Hong family, not to how amazing he is."
"The skill of talking is useless. Now your whereabouts have been completely exposed. There is no chance of escape. You'd better hand over the two treasures of the Luoshu General Outline and the Autumn Silkworm Golden Silk." Hong Peng's eyes were as sharp as lightning. He stood there, with an momentum of one man blocking the way for ten thousand men.
He took a step forward, and a huge flag rushed out from his body. It was as black as ink and shrouded in mist, instantly sealing off the area.
At this moment, a string of heavenly laughter reached Gu Chi's ears, and someone secretly said, "Does this Taoist friend need help?"
Gu Chi frowned immediately. This was the voice of Saint Xuanyuan.
"You and I are strangers, why are you helping me?" Gu Chi responded with his spiritual sense, and then continued: "If the Saint Lady is willing to help me, I don't mind making a good relationship with her. First, you can get rid of this Hong Peng for me and let me see your sincerity."
"It's easy for fellow Daoist to say. Only three young members of the Hong family have successfully broken through to the Golden Core stage, and Hong Peng is a treasure in the Hong family. If I kill him here, I will have a huge cause and effect with the Hong family." The voice of the Holy Maiden Xuanyuan was sweet.
"Since you don't dare to help me kill him, what are you talking about helping me?" Gu Chi responded.
She didn't think that the dozen or so people in front of her could trap her. With the system bonus of her and the big black dog Xuanyou, even if there were a dozen more people, they would not be enough.
"Although I cannot help you directly, I can help you get out of trouble." Saint Xuanyuan sent a telepathic message again.
"What's the point? My whereabouts are now completely exposed. Even if I get out of this predicament, I will soon face a new one."
Under normal circumstances, the dozen or so people in front of her would not be able to trap her at all. She and the big black dog both have system bonuses, so even if there were a dozen more people, they would still not be enough.
What is worrying Gu Chi the most now is that with so many experts from the Jiuli Dynasty working together to deduce the truth, she and the big black dog have nowhere to hide.
"How about this, after you get out of this predicament, I will give you a method of concealing your energy, which will prevent others from deducing your exact location."
"can!"
Gu Chi didn't know why the other party wanted to help her, but since someone was willing to help, she was naturally happy to make good friends.
Xuanyuan Saintess's laughter was like a silver bell, making people feel like a spring breeze. She said, "I need to prepare. You should find a way to break through first. With the strength of the two of you, other than Hong Peng, who is in the Jindan stage, the others will not pose any threat to you."
Gu Chi sacrificed the wrong jade knife with a "clang" sound and was about to fight the big black dog directly, but he immediately realized that something was wrong.
The sun was shining brightly at this time, but she felt a hint of chill.
Just in front of him, behind Hong Peng, there was a vast expanse of white, and endless ice and snow appeared in the void. The biting cold air swept over like a knife.
"Innate vision!"
Gu Chi was shocked. As far as she knew, the innate vision could not be awakened casually. Throughout history, those who could awaken the innate vision were undoubtedly people of extraordinary talent and could not be viewed from the perspective of ordinary cultivators.
The white snow covered the sky, and the biting cold wind whistled out. Hong Peng was in the center of the ice and snow, and his aura was rapidly soaring.
"Ice and snow!"
With his loud shout, endless ice and snow wrapped in biting cold pressed towards Gu Chi and the big black dog.
"call--"
The cold wind was howling, heavy snow was flying, the sky and the earth were covered in white, each snowflake was as big as a palm, as sharp as a sword, sweeping forward.
"Clang Clang"
There were bursts of clanging sounds, and thousands of snow blades came to strangle.
"Hmph!" The big black dog snorted coldly and slammed the black gold coffin to the ground. The earth shook instantly and the thousands of snow blades were crushed into powder by the condensed force before they could get close to it.
"If this is all you have the ability to do, not only will you not be able to get the treasure from me, but you will also lose your life here." Gu Chi had a faint smile on his face.
This is not alarmist. Both she and the big black dog have various attribute bonuses of the system. Although they are only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, if they fight with all their strength without reservation, they can fight even if they meet a cultivator who has reached the great perfection of the Golden Core stage.
