Book 1: Chapter 53: Kill
After ng Tai captured Xiaorou, he rushed towards the Century Lifespan Immortality Peach Tree in the center.
“Stand still! That is mine!”
“You bastard!”
“Stand still!”
The surrounding cultivators who had barged into the ritual array grew frantic, placing increasingly greater pressure on Gao Xianzhi and Chen Tianshan. The two felt weary of the battle.
The Elite Hall disciples helped ng Tai bring up the rear, blocking the clamoring cultivators.
As for where Gu Hai was, no one dared to go there.
Rumble…!
The ferocious general that Gu Hai rode on rushed over in the blink of an eye.
“ng Tai, are you seeking death?” Gu Hai roared with a glare.
However, ng Tai had already reached the Century Lifespan Immortality Peach Tree.
When ng Tai looked carefully, he opened his eyes wide.
“Where are the Century Lifespan Immortality Peaches? Where are the Century Lifespan Immortality Peaches?” ng Tai suddenly yelled.
A red line appeared where he placed the dagger on Xiaorou’s neck.
“Sob! Sob! Sob! Benefactor, sorry! It’s all Xiaorou’s fault! Sorry, Benefactor!” Xiaorou cried as she looked at the raging Gu Hai rushing over from a distance.
ng Tai angrily turned his head, then noticed Gu Hai approaching. When he saw Gu Hai’s incensed state and the ferocious general wielding the halberd, his heart skipped a beat.
Why did the battle stop? Why is he not fighting the black-robed man?
The black-robed man also slowly flew over from a distance. The battle between Gu Hai and the Great Light Sovereign Deity had indeed temporarily co to a stop.
When ng Tai saw Gu Hai’s surging aura, his expression changed. Then, he pressed his dagger deeper into Xiaorou’s neck, imdiately drawing so blood.
“ng Tai, how dare you?!” Gu Hai bellowed angrily while glaring.
“Gu Hai, don’t co over. If you do, I’ll kill her!” ng Tai roared.
Boom!
Gu Hai’s figure stopped, and he looked coldly at ng Tai.
ng Tai’s eyelids twitched wildly. He was a wise person and did not dare to target the Century Lifespan Immortality Peach Tree. However, he wanted the Century Lifespan Immortality Peaches.
According to his original plan, he only needed to kidnap Xiaorou, pick the remaining seven immortality peaches, and imdiately flee. Gu Hai definitely would not have ti to chase him. As long as he left the Innate Puzzle World and recovered his cultivation, Gu Hai would not be able to do anything to him, no matter how capable Gu Hai was.
However, the Century Lifespan Immortality Peaches were gone?
“Division Master, we can’t hold on for much longer!” the group of Elite Hall disciples not far away called out anxiously.
ng Tai’s expression changed. “Gu Hai, block them. Otherwise, I’ll kill this snake spirit!”
Gu Hai’s expression turned cold, and he waved his hand.
Rumble…!
A large number of soldiers revived and imdiately charged at the surrounding cloud beasts.
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
A string of murderous bellows rang out, and the soldiers ferociously knocked back the cloud beasts. When ng Tai saw how ferocious the attack was, his expression changed dramatically.
“Let go of Xiaorou, and I’ll let you all go!” Gu Hai said coldly.
“Hahahahaha! Xiaorou? This snake spirit? Gu Hai, I think you are extraordinarily softhearted. To think that I can hold a snake spirit that you only got to know not long ago hostage against you. Since you care so much, how can I bear to let go of her?” ng Tai suddenly showed a sinister smile.
“Benefactor, sorry! Sorry, Benefactor! Sob! Sob! Sob!” Xiaorou cried, feeling upset.
Xiaorou felt upset because she felt useless. Her benefactor was being coerced because she got cheated by a bad person. She blad it all on herself.
“Xiaorou, don’t cry. It is not your fault. It’s fine!” Gu Hai consoled.
After consoling Xiaorou, Gu Hai looked back at ng Tai.
“Division Master ng, you are also an Elite Hall disciple. We can be considered to be on the sa side. I am willing to beco enemies with the world to find the Unborn Man for Elite Hall. Yet, you sched against instead of helping . What do you an by this?” Gu Hai asked coldly.
As Gu Hai spoke, the ferocious general he stood on shifted over a little.
“Don’t move. Otherwise, I’ll kill her now!” ng Tai glared.
Gu Hai narrowed his eyes slightly, and the ferocious general stopped moving forward.
“Cut the crap, Gu Hai. I acknowledge your capabilities, but you should not have appeared. Humph! You care about Xiaorou? Let’s see how much you care about her. You picked the Century Lifespan Immortality Peaches, right? Use the Century Lifespan Immortality Peaches to redeem Xiaorou. Give them to , and I can spare her!” ng Tai said coldly.
“No, don’t! Benefactor, don’t! Xiaorou’s life is worthless. Don’t do it!” Xiaorou imdiately shouted, tears streaming down her cheeks.
Gu Hai stared at ng Tai, remaining silent for a while.
“What’s wrong? You don’t care about her anymore?” ng Tai demanded coldly.
Gu Hai took a deep breath and nodded. “There was a total of ten Century Lifespan Immortality Peaches. Xiaorou ate three earlier, and I ate one. Now, only six remain!”
Whoosh!
As Gu Hai spoke, he waved, and six jade boxes appeared at the head of the ferocious general.
“Open them!” ng Tai shouted across the distance, suppressing his excitent.
Whoosh!
Gu Hai lifted the lids of the six jade boxes, revealing six golden immortality peaches.
The countless cultivators in the surroundings stared at the six jade boxes. Many people involuntarily gulped down their saliva.
Clink!
Gu Hai closed the lids of the jade boxes.
“That’s right. Hahaha! Gu Hai, I really respect you. First, you used three Century Lifespan Immortality Peaches for an insignificant snake spirit. Now, you took out six Century Lifespan Immortality Peaches without even blinking.” ng Tai smiled coldly.
“Let go of Xiaorou, and I will give them to you!” Gu Hai said.
“Do you think that I will believe you? Let go of Xiaorou? Would the immortality peaches still be mine then?” ng Tai retorted in disdain.
“My—Gu Hai’s—word is gold. Let go of Xiaorou, and I’ll give you the six golden immortality peaches. If anything happens to Xiaorou, I will make sure to bury all of you with her!” Gu Hai’s eyes radiated coldness.
Rumble…!
A large number of soldiers imdiately appeared in the surroundings, clutching weapons and pointing them at the dozens of Elite Hall disciples.
ng Tai’s eyelids twitched. “Hand over the golden immortality peaches, and I will let go of her. Are you handing them over or not?!”
Gu Hai stared coldly at ng Tai.
“Are you handing them over or not?!” ng Tai pressed harder on Xiaorou’s neck with his dagger.
Gu Hai’s eyelids twitched.
“Here!” Gu Hai stretched out his hand, about to hand over the jade boxes.
Six Elite Hall disciples controlled their cloud beasts to fly over.
“Don’t! Benefactor, don’t give them to him! Benefactor, Xiaorou has implicated you. Sorry, Benefactor! Sob! Sob! Sob! Sob!” Xiaorou yelled in despair.
“Cut the crap!” ng Tai shouted angrily at Xiaorou.
In the distance, the six Elite Hall disciples had already arrived before Gu Hai. He was about to hand the jade boxes to them.
Gu Hai did not hesitate when it ca to saving Xiaorou.
When Xiaorou saw that Gu Hai was willing to exchange the Century Lifespan Immortality Peaches for her without hesitation, she could not stop her tears. Suddenly, she looked at Gu Hai in a daze, showing a sowhat sorrowful smile on her face.
“Benefactor, eting Benefactor is Xiaorou’s greatest fortune in this life. Xiaorou should have died that day at the independent world’s entrance. Benefactor should not have saved Xiaorou that day. Xiaorou cannot help Benefactor to tend to his herb fields anymore. If there is a next life, Xiaorou will help Benefactor to tend his herb fields then. I will tend to Benefactor’s herb fields for my entire life!” Xiaorou said sorrowfully with a gentle voice.
In the distance, Gu Hai’s expression changed. “Xiaorou, what are you doing?”
Gu Hai’s expression changed. ng Tai’s expression changed as well. However, it was too late.
Right after Xiaorou finished speaking, she found strength from sowhere and pushed her body forward.
Phish!
The dagger in ng Tai’s hand cut through most of Xiaorou’s neck, instantly reaching the deepest part, almost decapitating her.
“Xiaorou!” Gu Hai suddenly roared in alarm, his eyes turning bloodshot.
“What?! You! You! You! You!” ng Tai yelled as he glared.
ng Tai had not expected Xiaorou to choose to commit suicide at this mont. How could she commit suicide?
Cutting her own neck? Even in death, Xiaorou’s eyes remained open.
“ng Tai, I want you dead!” Gu Hai roared.
The ferocious general suddenly swung his halberd, exploding the six cloud beasts that ca to take the Century Lifespan Immortality Peaches.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
“Ah!”
“Ah!”
“Ah!”
The six Elite Hall disciples scread miserably as the explosion knocked them into the air.
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
The surrounding soldiers imdiately attacked the six.
Boom!
The six Elite Hall disciples imdiately exploded, splattering blood everywhere.
“Kill!”
“Roar!”
The surrounding soldiers seed to go crazy, charging at all the Elite Hall disciples and ng Tai.
“How did it turn out like this? How did it turn out like this?” ng Tai looked at Xiaorou’s corpse in his embrace in horror.
Why did she commit suicide? Why did she commit suicide?
“Division Master! Division Master, save us! What should we do?!” the remaining Elite Hall disciples yelled.
The surrounding soldiers rampaged; all of them charged over together.
ng Tai’s expression changed dramatically.
“Quickly leave! Quickly leave! Quickly leave!” ng Tai yelled as he tried to rush out.
“Trying to leave? Are you still thinking of leaving? Die!” Gu Hai roared.
“I have the strength to pick up mountains, and my might conquers the world!” The powerful general chopped down with his halberd.
Boom!
The halberd tore through everything as it swung down on the cloud beast ng Tai stood on.
“Block! Block!”
Boom! Boom!
Two Elite Hall disciples shielding ng Tai exploded. However, the halberd attack also chopped off the tail of his dragon cloud beast.
“What?” ng Tai shouted in horror.
“Die!” Gu Hai roared ferociously.
“I have the strength to pick up mountains, and my might conquers the world!”
Boom!
Another halberd strike, one even more ferocious than the last, chopped down at ng Tai.
As ng Tai looked at the halberd coming at his head, his expression changed wildly.
He imdiately tossed away Xiaorou’s corpse, hurling her towards the halberd.
“Stop!” Gu Hai’s expression changed.
Boom!
The halberd abruptly stopped, producing a strong wind as it tried to avoid damaging Xiaorou’s corpse.
Rumble…!
The ferocious general charged forward, and Gu Hai caught Xiaorou’s corpse. That dagger was still in her neck. Xiaorou had already stopped breathing.
“My army, kill ng Tai and the Elite Hall disciples with your full power! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!” Gu Hai roared to the sky.
“Hoo-ah!”
A vast army suddenly appeared, surrounding ng Tai and the others.
“Gu Hai, how dare you?! I am Elite Hall’s Earth Division Master!” ng Tai yelled in shock.
“Kill!” Gu Hai roared, showing a ferocious expression.
Rumble…!
The vast army surrounded and attacked ng Tai.
However, Gu Hai quickly took out a Century Lifespan Immortality Peach and placed it at Xiaorou’s mouth.
Xiaorou already stopped breathing; will the Century Lifespan Immortality Peach still work?
Gu Hai appeared anxious.
