Chapter 1014: Chapter 531: Purple Mist Peak Is Removed from the Rolls
Seeing Lan Yao refusing to relent, Zhang Ping gritted his teeth in anger.
"Lan Yao, don’t blame me; you brought this on yourself!"
"Cut the nonsense, if you’ve got the skill, bring it on!"
Zhang Ping gritted his teeth, waved his hand, and the people from the Heisha Sect rushed forward.
Lan Yao sneered coldly and led the Elf Clan forward to meet the attack.
The sound of the battle reached the Third Elder and others, startling them.
"Oh no, it seems someone is attacking! You all stay with Gu Sheng, I’ll go take a look."
"Third Elder, there must be many attackers, bring some people with you."
The Third Elder nodded and hurried over.
He followed the sound, but the closer he got, the quieter it became.
By the time the Third Elder appeared, Lan Yao had already sheathed his sword.
Seeing the ground before him covered in bloodstains, the Third Elder quickly approached.
"Lan Yao, was there an attack?"
"Yes, the outside world knows that Gu Sheng obtained the Spiritual Pearl. The ones who came earlier were from the Heisha Sect, and more are likely to follow. How is Gu Sheng holding up?"
"I don’t know, the spiritual energy is not diminishing, he must still be absorbing it. Sorry to trouble you with this, I’ll stay here these days."
"It’s no trouble; Gu Sheng is my friend, it’s only right that I protect him. Third Elder, you’d better go stay with Gu Sheng; leave this side to me. With us Elves here, they won’t get through."
Hearing this, the Third Elder was full of gratitude.
"Lan Yao, I really don’t know how to thank you."
"Third Elder, don’t dwell on it, it’s what I should do. I want Gu Sheng’s Hundred Poison Grass, so I have to give a little something, right?"
Lan Yao deliberately brought this up to give the Third Elder an out.
Looking at Lan Yao, the Third Elder solemnly said, "We’re troubling you Elves this time; once Gu Sheng comes out, I will surely give you a hefty reward!"
To reassure the Third Elder, Lan Yao smiled and nodded.
"Alright, since you’ve said so, I won’t be polite when the time comes."
Hearing his words, the Third Elder relaxed and hurried back to Gu Sheng’s side.
Two days later, Shi Lou and Er Gou were the first to emerge from their seclusion.
Seeing people running toward them in a panic, they quickly moved to meet them.
"What’s wrong? What’s happened?"
"There’s an external aura, someone else must have come looking for us. We need to hurry over and check it out."
Hearing this, both of them frowned.
"Someone else has come? Have there been attacks recently?"
"Yes, since Brother Sheng got the Spiritual Pearl, many have tried to seize it. The Elf Clan has been guarding us. Now someone else is attacking, we must hurry to help."
Understanding the situation, Shi Lou and Er Gou hurriedly made their way there.
Having just broken through, they were now stronger, and with their joining the fray, they quickly routed the enemy.
When the aura faded, Gu Sheng, still in seclusion, sensed it.
The spiritual energy around the pearl was diminishing as he began to reestablish his connection with the outside world. Though he remained hidden, he was fully aware of everything happening outside.
Knowing that Stone Village was temporarily safe, he continued to madly absorb the remaining spiritual energy in the pearl.
Within Gu Sheng’s body, everything had transformed; all his bones and meridians were reshaped, his Dantian now the size of two fists, filled with spiritual energy and divine power. In a short time, he had advanced nearly a hundred years in cultivation!
But the spiritual energy had yet to dissipate, and he could not afford to stop.
As Gu Sheng labored, the disturbances outside never ceased.
Lan Yao and Shi Lou, along with others, kept guard outside, until a week later, when the Peak Master of Purple Mist Peak led an attack, prompting them to raise their guard immediately.
Seeing the Peak Master of Purple Mist Peak, Shi Lou gritted his teeth in anger.
"If I knew you were so despicable, I would’ve let Brother Sheng wipe out your entire sect back then!"
At these words, Luan Yun’s eyes darkened instantly.
"Gu Sheng killed most of my sect while I was away; he deserved death more than anyone! Today I’ll not only take the Spiritual Pearl but also the lives of everyone in Stone Village to avenge my people from Purple Mist Peak!"
As he said this, he pointed at Lan Yao.
"This has nothing to do with your Elf Clan, get out of my way!"
Seeing his arrogant demeanor, Lan Yao drew his longsword without hesitation.
"Gu Sheng’s business is my business. If you want to enter Stone Village, you’ll have to get past me first! Bring it on!"
With those words, Lan Yao charged forward.
Luan Yun cursed furiously as he dodged, not forgetting to hurl insults.
Angry, Shi Lou quickly joined the fight.
Even though it was one against two, Luan Yun showed no signs of faltering.
Knowing his power far exceeded Zhang Ping’s, both of them approached the situation cautiously.
As Luan Yun launched an attack, Shi Lou suddenly ducked, and after avoiding the attack, he lunged forward, thrusting his short blade toward Luan Yun’s heart!
Lan Yao joined in the assault, trying to hold Luan Yun back, but Luan Yun’s awareness was sharp. Just as Shi Lou was about to strike, Luan Yun suddenly released a burst of divine power, striking Shi Lou fiercely, while he himself used the force to retreat swiftly to a safe distance.
"Lan Yao, I’m not some pushover you Elves can toy with. Today, both you Elves and the people of Stone Village will die!"
"Our lives are right here for the taking, if you have the skill!"
"Heh, alright then, let’s see how strong your so-called friendship with Gu Sheng is after just a few days!"
With that, Luan Yun suddenly raised his hand and waved it.
The two instinctively dodged, but the powder seemed to chase them, entering their nostrils within a breath.
In an instant, they both felt their divine power severely suppressed, their bodies weakening uncontrollably.
