Soon after, Fang Zheng rushed over as well.
"Lord Qing Shu!" He had an exhilarated expression, stupidly running towards Gu Yue Qing Shu, but soon was forced to retreat by the pin needles.
"Group leader, it’s me Fang Zheng!!" He shouted in shock, sensing something amiss for the first time.
But how could Gu Yue Qing Shu answer him.
"Big brother, what’s wrong with Lord Qing Shu?" Fang Zheng, under confusion and shock, could only turn to Fang Yuan.
But Fang Yuan ignored him, squatting down and grabbing with his right hand, making a claw shape towards Bai Ning Bing.
Plunder Gu!
He secretly activated this Gu, quickly sensing that he had grabbed something.
He quickly pulled back, and a Gu worm flew out of Bai Ning Bing’s body.
It was a red steel Relic Gu!
This was given to Bai Ning Bing by the Bai clan leader, but Bai Ning Bing never used it as he quickly reached Rank three cultivation.
Now, it became Fang Yuan’s loot.
Seeing the red steel Relic Gu ing out of Bai Ning Bing’s body and flying away, landing in Fang Yuan’s palm, the Bai clan Gu Masters were anxious until their eyes turned red, starting to scream.
"Scumbag, if you don’t want to die, stop right now!"
"Stealing our Bai clan Gu worm right in front of us!!"
"It’s a red steel Relic Gu worm..."
Fang Yuan laughed coldly. Once the red steel Relic Gu was obtained, he used the Spring Autumn Cicada to instantly refine it but did not keep it in his aperture, putting it in his clothes instead, giving the impression that he had not refined them yet.
He grabbed once again; this time a grey coloured beetle flew out.
"Stone Aperture Gu..." Fang Yuan recognised this Gu immediately. As his eyes shone, he refined it once again and kept it in his arms.
"Damn it, yet another Gu worm!"
"Stop him, stop him, he dares to do so openly, he does not hold any regard for our Bai clan."
"Save Bai Ning Bing, kill these guys!"
The Bai clan Gu Masters growled, running furiously from the mountain path.
Bai Ning Bing had the full support of his clan, so every Gu worm in his possession was outstanding. Now that they were snatched away by Fang Yuan in public, they all could feel their hearts bleeding.
This felt worse than killing them.
Seeing these people approaching with their imposing aura, Fang Zheng took a step back in fright, but Fang Yuan was unfazed.
In the current scene, he and Fang Zheng were at the east side of the mountain path while the Bai clan Gu Masters were at the west, and in the middle of the two sides were Gu Yue Qing Shu and Bai Ning Bing.
Whoosh whoosh!
Pin needles rained like cats and dogs.
"Damn it..." Bai clan Gu Masters started scolding, as they were blocked by Gu Yue Qing Shu.
"Gu Yue Qing Shu is going to die anytime, the remaining time only allows me to use the Plunder Gu once, what would it be this time?" Fang Yuan calmed down, using the Plunder Gu again.
Every time the Plunder Gu was used, it expended a large amount of primeval essence. It depended on how strong the target Gu worm was. The harder the process, the more primeval essence is expended. If the plunder fails, the Gu Master would even face a backlash.
Thus, the Plunder Gu was a rather unreliable Gu, with little usage.
But at this moment, Bai Ning Bing was almost dead, his consciousness was hazy and he was almost at his limits. Plundering his Gu worm was not hard at all.
Among the Gu worms in Bai Ning Bing’s possession, the most valuable is the Frost Demon Gu. This Gu was on par with the Wood Charm Gu, allowing a person to transform into the frost demon. But if used for extended periods, it would cause the Gu Master’s life force to dwindle, turning into an ice statue.
Bai Ning Bing knew this weakness, thus he had never been like Gu Yue Qing Shu, using the Gu to such an extent.
Other than the Frost Demon Gu, the second most valuable is the Blue bird ice coffin Gu, a Rank three Gu. Right now, it resides in Bai Ning Bing’s throat.
If he can plunder the Blue bird ice coffin Gu, it is the best scenario. But the Plunder Gu is only a Rank two Gu, even if the Gu Master wills it, it does not have to ability to do so.
Eventually, Fang Yuan caught Bai Ning Bing’s Water Shield Gu.
This was not bad at all. The Water Shield Gu together with the White Jade Gu could provide Fang Yuan greater defensive power.
The tree spirit that Gu Yue Qing Shu turned into was eventually felled by the Bai clan Gu Masters.
They split open the wooden cage and saved the Bai Ning Bing who had fainted after losing his right arm.
Just as they were about to slaughter Fang Yuan and Fang Zheng, the Gu Yue clan reinforcements arrived.
The two were at a stalemate for a while, before both retreated in mutual understanding.
Qing Shu’s death and Bai Ning Bing’s injury, with the threat of the wolf tide, such a loss is already horrifying. If a large-scale fighting broke out, for each clan their pressure for survival would intensify greatly.
Regardless of which world, people always pete for their own benefits.
And the greatest benefit in the world, is undoubtedly "survival".
Eventually, Gu Yue Qing Shu’s corpse and Gu worms, were brought back by the Gu Yue clan’s Gu Masters.
The two sides held caution as they retreated from the battlefield.
The sky was raining, and the entire area was gloomy.
A group of people stood at a slope behind the village, this was the graveyard.
Every now and then, there would be a few more gravestones erected here.
In this world, it was tough for people to survive, and whether it is due to external threat or internal cause, there would always be a few sacrifices.
The clan elder’s voice was low as it entered everyone’s ears, making them feel even more down.
"We have the same surname, we e from the same clan, the same blood flows in our bodies."
"We are so close together in distance, yet we are forever separated by life and death."
"This pain aches in my heart."
"Wait for me."
"Someday in the future, I will lay beside you as well."
"Let us turn into ash and soil, as we support our future generations..."
On a newly erected gravestone, a group of people hung their heads low. Some were crying softly, and some were staring at the name on the tombstone as they were filled with sadness.
The cruelty of death was like a white bony arm, slashing a bloody injury on everyone’s heart.
Except that some were already numb from the pain, while others were still too inexperienced.
Gu Yue Fang Zheng was among these people, his drooping eyes staring at the tombstone with "Gu Yue Qing Shu
