"Master, that eighth-level magical power is chasing me!"

Hearing Di Kui's voice, Gu Xiao looked startled and quickly turned around, and sure enough he saw Shi Hong approaching at great speed.

Knowing that being caught up by Shi Hong would definitely result in death or rebirth, Gu Xiao's face turned grim.

"Digui, blow up the corridor!"

After giving the order to Di Kui, Gu Xiao swung his sword to the side, and Di Kui, who understood, also released a trace of Kui Tu essence and shot it towards the wall.

After Kuitu's energy penetrated into the back wall, cracks appeared in the blink of an eye, followed by a continuous roar, and the corridor behind Gu Xiao was blocked by broken boulders.

Moreover, every inch Gu Xiao moved forward, the corridor would break an inch. It was not until Gu Xiao rushed out of the corridor that the roar stopped completely.

Looking at the filled tunnel exit, Gu Xiao concentrated for a while, but after not sensing Shi Hong's breath, he breathed a sigh of relief.

But Gu Xiao also understood that with Shi Hong's ability, he would definitely not be able to trap him for long. After calming down and looking for the direction out of the valley, Gu Xiao quickly flew away.

But just after he had swept out of three miles, Gu Xiao's body, which was moving very fast, suddenly paused, then stepped on his feet, soared into the sky, and landed on the tree with a leap.

As soon as Gu Xiao stood firm, the place where he was standing suddenly exploded, shooting out countless rubbles.

"Boy, you are quite alert."

Looking at Shi Hong on the ground, or more specifically at the corner of the talisman held in Shi Hong's hand, Gu Xiao's heart sank.

If Dikui hadn't warned him that there was something going on underground, he would have been killed by Shi Hong's sneak attack.

"A master of the eighth level of magical power doesn't feel ashamed to use the Earth Escape Talisman to sneak attack me with a first level of magical power."

"Ha! If it were an ordinary person, I would really disdain a sneak attack, but you are different."

After Shi Hong finished speaking, his face became stern, his aura was full, and his murderous intent was fully revealed.

"Boy, hand over the spirit of Kuitu!"

Um?!

Gu Xiao couldn't help being startled, and subconsciously tightened the Kyushu Sword in his hand.

How could this Shi Hong know that the spirit of Kuitu is in me?!

Gu Xiao narrowed his eyes and said, "Why can't I understand what you are talking about?"

"Don't you understand?" Shi Hong sneered at the corner of his mouth: "Boy, the earth spirit puppet you drove before had the aura of Kuitu essence, and you told me that you don't understand it?!"

Shi Hong's words made Gu Xiao frown, but he didn't speak again and fell into silence.

But many times, silence represents acquiescence.

"Boy, I will give you a chance now. If you hand over the spirit of Kuitu obediently, I can let you take Yan Feng's place."

Replace Yan Feng's position?

Gu Xiao narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but think of all the previous events. After a moment, he raised his eyebrows.

This raised eyebrow fell right into Shi Hong's eyes.

"It seems that you have guessed it. Yes, I came to Yue this time just for the Kuitu Spirit, and the information about the Kuitu Spirit was also provided by the Yan family."

really!

Gu Xiao secretly thought, and sure enough, he also understood why the Yan family dared to risk being exterminated by the Yue royal family to steal the golden ring and the lotus.

Presumably at the beginning, the Yan family wanted to use the golden ring and the lotus to cling to Shi Hong, or to be more precise, it was the power behind Shi Hong.

But because Qiu Ran came out halfway and was intercepted by Gu Xiao, the Yan family, having lost their bargaining chip, completely cut off their escape route, hoping to use the spirit of Kuitu to regain their vitality.

Although this is Gu Xiao's conjecture, it is almost certain.

But this way...

"What will be the consequences if I don't pay?"

"The consequences of not handing over...ha! What do you think?!"

Shi Hong's words were completely expected. Gu Xiao couldn't help but sigh, his face hardened, and he assumed a fighting posture.

Seeing Gu Xiao's posture, Shi Hong sneered. He understood that Gu Xiao wanted to fight to the death, so he said no more, and the momentum of the eighth level of supernatural power rose without reservation.

"found it!"

But as soon as Shi Hong's momentum rose, a high-pitched and surprising voice came from the distance, which made both Shi Hong and Gu Xiao's expressions change.

However, Shi Hong looked ugly, but Gu Xiao was pleasantly surprised, because he recognized that the owner of this voice was none other than Mo Jing!

As expected, Mo Jing appeared in less than a breath, and as soon as he appeared, he released a giant golden net towards Shi Hong.

"snort!"

Shi Hong snorted coldly, grabbed the giant golden net, and tore it apart with both hands.

But Mo Jing seemed to have expected it, and instead of attacking more, he ducked in front of Gu Xiao and said, "Mr. Gu, are you okay?!"

With Mo Jing by his side, Gu Xiao felt a little at ease and breathed a sigh of relief: "If you were to wait a little longer, you might have to burn more paper money for me in seven days."

this……

Gu Xiao's words stunned Mo Jing, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Does Mr. Gu also joke?

And this tone sounds like that Qi Mu...

Just when Mo Jing was thinking wildly, more than ten auras were approaching quickly, and Gu Xiao's expression changed.

Because among the dozen or so auras, two of them were familiar to Gu Xiao, one was Qi Mu, and the other... was the third prince of the Yue Kingdom, Zuo Qiujie!

Sure enough, after a while, they saw Zuo Qiujie leading the way, Qi Mu beside him, and behind them were more than a dozen burly men wearing dark red standard armor.

When he saw these ten or so men, Shi Hong's eyes froze, because he had already sensed that the cultivation of these men was above the fifth level of supernatural power!

Plus Mo Jing, who has the eighth level of magical power...

Shi Hong, who had a dull expression before, felt like giving up.

As soon as Shi Hong wanted to retreat, he was noticed by Mo Jing. With a cold snort, Mo Jing jumped down and slapped Shi Hong condescendingly.

"catch him!"

At the same time, Zuo Qiujie also gave an order in a cold voice. After the men behind him made a promise, they all rushed towards Shi Hong.

These men had a great tacit understanding. The moment Shi Hong defended himself against Mo Jing's attack, they formed an encirclement and blocked all Shi Hong's retreat routes.

Moreover, in cooperation with Mo Jing, Shi Hong always launched a combined attack when Shi Hong's new strength was not yet developed. After only three rounds, Shi Hong fell into a complete disadvantage.

"Don't bully others too much!"

Shi Hong's face showed aggrievedness, he shouted angrily, and then he exploded his spiritual power, slapped Mo Jing with all his strength, and then rushed towards one of the men, trying to force a breakout.

But Mo Jing seemed to have expected it, and did not resist Shi Hong's attack. Instead, he sidestepped and waved his hand to release a giant golden net in the direction of Shi Hong's breakthrough.

As soon as the golden giant net was blocked, the man chosen by Shi Hong as the target of the breakout shouted a syllable, and the people on both sides of him quickly ducked to his side.

As soon as he stood still, he launched an attack on Shi Hong's upper, middle and lower roads, and it was as if he had practiced it countless times, without any obstruction and with smooth flow.

"damn it!"

As soon as the barrier of the giant golden net was torn apart, Shi Hong found that he could not defend against all three attacks. He could only grit his teeth, resist one attack and dodge the other two.

But they never thought that after seeing Shi Hong being attacked, the expressions of more than ten men perked up, and after uttering a strange syllable at the same time, they began to move quickly around Shi Hong.

While moving, he also launched attacks at Shi Hong, and the attack angles were extremely tricky, and most of them were attacking Shi Hong's blind spot.

Under such a combined attack, Shi Hong was unable to consider both front and rear. In addition, more than ten people attacked at the same time, and the frequency was so fast that he soon had many wounds on his body.

"That's too much!"

The stimulation of pain made Shi Hong completely furious. He stamped his feet, and several thick vines came out, and they whipped towards the man in front of him.

As soon as the little magical power came out, the men's expressions froze at the same time. After another strange syllable came out of their mouths, they raised their hands, forming a closed loop in an instant.

A closed loop was formed, and when the men drank at the same time, they felt a terrifying spiritual power explode, instantly twisting the vines released by Shi Hong into pieces.

Shi Hong was caught off guard and was shocked by this spiritual power. He spat out a mouthful of blood and his steps became chaotic.

"The thief is ambushed!"

At the moment when Shi Hong's steps were messy, Mo Jing's eyes flashed. He seized the opportunity, bullied himself forward, knocked Shi Hong to the ground with one punch, and then released a giant golden net to tie Shi Hong up.

Seeing Shi Hong being ambushed, Gu Xiaoxuan's heart was completely relieved, but his eyes were looking at the dozen or so men, and his face became solemn.

Gu Xiao had not experienced encirclement attacks before, but this was his first time seeing an orderly and interlocking encirclement like these men.

Putting himself in his shoes, facing such an encirclement, Gu Xiao realized that even with his enhanced senses, he would probably only be able to hold on longer than Shi Hong.

"Damn it! If you don't want to die, you'd better let me go now!"

At this moment, Shi Hong, who had been struggling to no avail, shouted angrily and stared at Mo Jing with a ferocious face.

But when Mo Jing saw it, he just snorted and ignored it. Instead, he looked at Zuo Qiujie.

Sensing Mo Jing's gaze, Zuo Qiujie thought for a moment, then his face turned cold and he raised his hand and put it down.

Seeing Zuo Qiujie's action, Mo Jing nodded and looked at Shi Hong again with murderous intent.
