“Since that’s the case, I might as well take the initiative.” Qing Zhu thought for a moment and stood up, ready to take action.

Unexpectedly, Gu Xi shook his head. His gaze moved slightly and fell on a certain spot in the viewing platform below. A figure had unknowingly appeared there. It was Xie Long, who had left with his men in a sorry state earlier today.

“Looks like I don’t have the time today.” Gu Xi grinned. With a tap of his toes, he appeared on the stage. However, his gaze had always been fixed on Xie Long, who was on the viewing platform. “Elder Xie, why are you still here at this late hour? Your Ancient Sect should have already packed up and left.”

Xie Long coldly snorted. In the next moment, his figure strangely appeared not far in front of Gu Xi. He sternly said, “Our Ancient Sect is unable to participate in this competition because of you!”

“No need to thank me. It’s just a small matter.” Gu Xi smiled innocently. There was no trace of guilt at all.

Seeing him like this, Xie Long could not help but gnash his teeth in anger. They had prepared for such a long time before they confidently came to participate in the competition. They did not expect to die in Gu Xi’s hands in the end. Even their own personal disciple almost died on the spot!

If he did not vent his anger, he would probably remember it for the rest of his life!

“Today, the shame of our Ancient Sect can only be repaid with your life.” Xie Long took a deep breath and did not hide the killing intent in his heart at all.

The journey to the competition ended here. If he returned just like this, he would definitely be punished by the sect. If he could bring back the head of the culprit, Gu Xi, the result would naturally be better.

“Elder Xie, I have to say that you are indeed very confident.” Gu Xi shrugged. He did not show the fear that Xie Long had expected. Instead, he still smiled indifferently. Gu Xi continued, “Although you are an elder of the Ancient Sect, and your seniority is much higher than mine, if you want to kill me… You have to carefully consider your own priorities.”

As he finished speaking, Little Nine and Qing Zhu appeared on both sides of him. The aura of the three locked onto Xie Long almost at the same time.

As Gu Xi’s contracted divine beast, Little Nine naturally would not watch as Xie Long made a move on Gu Xi. As for Qing Zhu, she was probably still angry at Xie Long for spying on her last time. Now that she had the opportunity to deal with Xie Long, she naturally would not let it go so easily.

“This is between him and me. I hope that you ladies won’t interfere.” Xie Long’s expression darkened. It was obvious that he did not expect the three of them to join forces to deal with him again.

Thinking back to that night at the Thousand Treasures Pavilion, if he had not run quickly, he would have probably been beaten up.

Little Nine and the other two didn’t respond to Xie Long’s words.

Although the two of them did not make any movements, it was clear that they had already given Xie Long the answer.

Seeing this, Xie Long slightly narrowed his eyes, and vast spiritual power began to flow through his meridians. A faintly discernible pressure gradually became heavy, and in the blink of an eye, it had already covered the entire arena.

“Since that’s the case, then I’ll properly meet the three of you.” After thinking about it, he still decided to make a move.

If he ran away without a fight like that night again, and if this matter was exposed by Gu Xi and the other two, then he would not only lose his face, but also the Ancient Sect’s face behind him. He would lose it all.

As an elder of the Ancient Sect, facing three juniors and running away without a fight, if this kind of news that made people laugh their heads off was spread out…

Just thinking about it made Xie Long shudder involuntarily.

“Elder Xie, it’s a bit of a bully for us to fight three against one.”

Looking at Xie Long, who was ready to make a move at any moment, Gu Xi took a step back and pointed at the two beautiful women beside her. He chuckled and said, “Why don’t you pick one of these two to fight with you?”

Hearing this, not only Xie Long, but even Little Nine and Qing Zhu were stunned.

In Gu Xi’s opinion, his cultivation realm could be said to be the lowest among the three. Moreover, Xie Long’s realm should at least be at the late Saint stage. In addition, as an elder of the Ancient Sect, the high-level spirit skills and spirit tools in his hands would be significant. It could be said that this old man was very difficult to deal with.

Although it was not very easy to deal with Xie Long, if he were to face either Little Nine or Qing Zhu, it would not be an easy battle for him.

“Cut the crap. The three of you can attack together!” Xie Long snorted coldly. Clearly, he did not plan to follow Gu Xi’s words.

What was this? Even if he won in a one-on-one fight, it would not be glorious!

“Little Nine.” Gu Xi did not pay attention to Xie Long. Instead, he softly called out Little Nine’s name.

Little Nine instantly understood. Her jade-like feet lightly tapped the ground, and her entire body shot out at an extremely fast speed. Her target was Xie Long.

“You’re courting death!” Looking at Little Nine who attacked without saying a word, Xie Long curled his lips in disdain.

Vast and mighty spirit energy burst out, turning into a light pillar as thick as a bucket, and directly whistled towards Little Nine’s figure. Wherever it passed, even the surrounding void became distorted under this tyrannical spirit energy light pillar.

On the other hand, Little Nine did not have the slightest intention of dodging Xie Long’s attack.

This made Xie Long’s eyelids twitch, and even his heart skipped a beat.

Actually, he did not really come here this time to take care of the lives of Gu Xi and the other two. Moreover, after that night, he knew that he did not have the ability to kill the three young juniors in front of him.

He came here this time just to vent the anger in his heart. After all, in his eyes, Gu Xi and the other two were the elite disciples of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. If he really killed any of them, he was afraid that the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would take revenge on him. As a result, the relationship between the Ancient Sect and the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would become very ugly.

If he angered the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, the number one Chamber of Commerce in the world, it would be extremely troublesome.

With a casual word from him, at least 70 percent of the Chambers of Commerce in the entire Eastern Continent would no longer sell things to the Ancient Sect. Even if other Chambers of Commerce took the risk to continue selling things to the Ancient Sect, the price would definitely be sky-high.

In short, Gu Xi and the other two could not be killed!
