"ah… "
Watching Zheng Tong being killed, Corpse Gu Master stared at Yang Qi in front of him and roared madly, "Yanjian King, you are looking for death!"
Zheng Tong and his two companions all died. Even if he escaped alive, the Qingxuan Sect would not let him go. The Xuanming Sect also offered a bounty for his death. His corpse puppet clone was also lost, which was simply adding insult to injury. And all this was because of the Yanjian King in front of him.
At this moment, Master Shi Gu couldn't help but feel a little regretful that he had agreed to let King Wan Wu deal with Yang Qi. If he didn't take action against Yang Qi, he would still be the free and easy Master Shi Gu. But now that he has left Tianji Mansion, he will be a rat crossing the street that everyone will shout and beat.
The Black Phoenix Sword in Yang Qi's hand shook, and he looked at the Corpse Gu Master in front of him, smiled coldly and said, "If you want to kill me, it depends on whether you have the strength to do so!"
As Yang Qi finished speaking, Corpse Gu Master's face suddenly became extremely ugly, but he did not continue to attack. The previous fight had made him realize that with his current strength, it would take a lot of time to kill Yang Qi, and this time was enough for Yang Qi to escape to the forbidden fighting area. Even if he was unwilling to admit it, Corpse Gu Master had to admit that he could not kill Yang Qi now!
This was the situation when he was facing Yang Qi alone. If Luo Ye and others from the Xuanming Sect were included, it would undoubtedly be even more difficult for him to kill Yang Qi!
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Thinking of this, Master Shi Gu had an idea and directly recalled the three-headed insect beast that was still alive.
In this short battle, four insect beasts died at the hands of the dark beetles, and one was killed by Luo Ye and others. The original nine-headed insect beast was killed by Yang Qi outside the Tianji Palace, and now there are only three insect beasts left.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
At the moment when Master Corpse Gu recalled the insect beasts, Luo Ye and his group, who had killed Zheng Tong and the other two, also came to Yang Qi's side. The five of them stared at Master Corpse Gu in front of them.
Shi Gu Zhenren suppressed the murderous intent in his heart, looked at Yang Qi, smiled coldly and said, "Yan Jian Wang, the next time we meet, it will be the day of your death!"
Before he finished speaking, Corpse Gu Master's figure flashed and flew away. Seeing Corpse Gu Master leaving, Yang Qi and others naturally did not chase him. Corpse Gu Master could not kill them, but that was because there was a forbidden area in this space. As for them, even if Corpse Gu Master fought with them to death, they could not kill Corpse Gu Master. After all, strictly speaking, they were not Corpse Gu Master's opponents at all and could only compete for a period of time.
Phew~
Looking at the leaving Corpse Gu Master, Yang Qi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Even though he had fought fiercely with Corpse Gu Master before, his vitality was greatly consumed, and only less than 50% was left. In this head-on battle, he was still no match for Corpse Gu Master!
"Brother Yang, we succeeded!" Tong Shan said with a slightly pale face.
This time their plan was successful entirely because of Yang Qi, because Yang Qi was able to hold back Corpse Gu Master, otherwise if Corpse Gu Master attacked them, they wouldn't be able to hold out for long. Now that there was no threat from Zheng Tong and the other two, their team didn't need to worry about their own safety even if they encountered Corpse Gu Master again.
"Yes, it succeeded." Yang Qi sighed and continued, "That Corpse Gu Master was too confident. He dared to deal with us even though his strength was not at its peak. Otherwise, this plan would probably fail."
When Master Corpse Gu was planning to rescue Zheng Tong and the other two, even if he tried his best to stop him, Master Corpse Gu was still very close to Zheng Tong and the other two. If Master Corpse Gu was in his prime, he would not be able to stop him from rescuing Zheng Tong and the other two.
Hearing this, Luo Ye could not help but nodded, and then he said in a deep voice, "This success was indeed a bit of luck, and everyone's consumption was very high."
They originally just wanted to test their own strength and see how long they could resist Corpse Gu Master to facilitate their next actions. Unexpectedly, Corpse Gu Master's strength was not at its peak, which gave them the opportunity to turn the situation around, allowing them to kill Zheng Tong and the other two, changing the balance of power between the two sides.
Ji Xuan looked at Yang Qi and said with emotion, "It can't be said to be luck. Brother Yang's strength can support such a long time under the secret method of Corpse Gu Master. This is not luck!"
They were considered top talents among their peers, but when faced with a monstrous creature like Yang Qi who could fight head-on with a one-star mid-stage Martial Emperor cultivator, they felt ashamed of themselves.
“Brother Ji is right. Brother Yang’s strength is really…” Tong Shan nodded, and for a moment he didn’t know how to describe Yang Qi at this moment.
With Yang Qi's current strength, he could probably kill the severely injured Blood Demon Ancestor by himself. Even if the Blood Demon Ancestor was severely injured, he was still a strong man with the fighting power of a Martial Emperor! How could a cultivator at the peak of the Martial King level actually have the strength to kill a Martial Emperor? How could this not be surprising!
"I was also forced out by Corpse Gu Master. If I don't do my best to improve myself, I will be dead if I meet Corpse Gu Master in the area where he can take action in Tianji Palace." Yang Qi said with a wry smile.
The Corpse Gu Master had been following him in the Tianji Palace and wanted to kill him, which indeed put a lot of pressure on him, and this pressure also became the motivation for his practice.
"Let's not talk about this for now, let's go back to the canyon and heal our wounds." Luo Ye said.
After hearing this, Yang Qi and the others nodded. They had all consumed a lot of energy in this battle, especially Tong Shan. It would take some time for him to recover after performing bloodline martial arts again. Besides Tong Shan, Yang Qi and the others also had a lot of energy and vitality loss, and needed to recover as soon as possible.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
The five of them did not hesitate any longer and immediately flew towards the canyon. After entering the canyon, they found a place and began to recover.
While Yang Qi and others were recuperating in the canyon, the news that several people had killed Zheng Tong at the hands of Master Shi Gu quickly spread among the practitioners in this space.
A cultivator heard his companion's words and asked in disbelief, "What? You said that the Xuanming Sect won the previous battle?"
Qingxuan Sect had Shi Gu Zhenren, a one-star mid-stage Martial Emperor, whose reputation was comparable to that of a one-star peak Martial Emperor. With such a strong man, how could Xuanming Sect win? It was like a Martial King defeating a Martial Emperor, which was naturally incredible!
"More than just victory, Zheng Tong and three other people from the Qingxuan Sect all died, and only Master Shi Gu is still alive." The man said with emotion.
When he got the news, he was just like his companions, totally unconvinced. However, after repeated confirmation, he realized that the news was accurate. The battle between the Qingxuan Sect and the Xuanming Sect was indeed won by the Xuanming Sect, and it was a complete victory! (To be continued)
