58: Chapter 58: You Are Forcing Me
58 -58: You Are Forcing Me
Under the moonlight, in the ancient temple.
Qing Chenxi took a step forward, shattering the sudden attack.
Her expression was cold, unable to fathom who would want to strike her here.
Just as she pondered, she suddenly felt a breeze from behind.
Hundred Steps Chasing Wind.
The previous attack was just a lure.
She dared not hesitate, holding the Spirit Sword, she swung it towards her back.
Boom!
Sword Qi burst out, like thunder striking down.
But what she slashed was just a flash of a sword, the same as before.
Another decoy?
Qing Chenxi was deeply startled.
At this moment, she felt an intense chill by her ear, as if a Giant Sword was whooshing towards her.
It was too late to counterattack.
Without hesitation, she activated the Defense Talisman, and started to dodge.
Boom!
A massive collision whooshed by.
Crack!
Bang!
Although she dodged the vital areas, the punch still hit her shoulder.
The impact made her involuntarily retreat, and the talisman was destroyed on the spot.
Even her shoulder got injured.
Gang Qi?
Qi Sea Sky Gang?
Has this reached the Ninth Stage?
A flash of surprise crossed Qing Chenxi’s mind.
However, she also saw the assailant, only glimpsing a figure
before the opponent attacked again.
Not with a punch this time, but with a chopping elbow as he closed in.
Qing Chenxi narrowly dodged it.
The opponent turned around, swinging his punch in a continued attack.
Boom!
Too fast—the strike landed directly on Qing Chenxi’s face.
She clenched her teeth, made a hand seal, and released a palm strike with the power of thunder.
Bang!
The opponent had defenses, but was still forcibly struck.
But still, there was Gang Qi defense.
This person’s extent of Qi Sea Sky Gang was the highest she had seen in her Qi Refinement.
Roaring!
The force collided, and for a moment, they distanced themselves from each other.
But neither had time to clearly see each other’s face, as they both initiated the attack.
Any slight hesitation could lead to being at a disadvantage.
Death could come at any moment.
They rapidly approached each other, thunder whooshing out, Gang Qi bursting forth with Blood Qi.
Bang!
Bang!!
Back and forth, fists whooshing, flashes of lightning appearing.
Neither defended but fought desperately for their lives.
Blood scattered on the ground.
At this point, Gu An felt his body’s strength waning, swallowed an Elixir Pill, and continued with a strong attack.
He couldn’t give the opponent a chance to breathe.
Qing Chenxi did the same, constantly radiating light from the talismans on her body.
Fists meeting thunder, every move deadly.
With a bang, Gu An punched Qing Chenxi in the chest, while her thunderous palm also landed on his back.
Blood spurted out.
“Who exactly are you?
What grudge do we hold?
Must it be like this?”
Qing Chenxi continued speaking as she fought: “Is it someone from the Inner Sect who disapproves of me?
You should know there are people behind me who will seek revenge for me.”
But no matter how Qing Chenxi spoke, the opponent did not relent.
And his attacks were desperate.
As time elapsed, both had accumulated numerous injuries.
Magic flickered constantly, fists moving with unrestricted force.
But suddenly, Qing Chenxi felt a loss of strength in the shoulder initially hit.
Poisoned?
She was extremely alarmed and quickly swallowed a Detoxification Pill.
Yet, in that moment of delay, fists rained down like a torrential downpour.
Finally, Gu An felt a hint of relief.
He had gained the upper hand.
He did not dare hesitate, marshaling all his power.
This moment, his fists were heavier than ever before.
Boom!
A heavy punch, the opponent was struck back, unable to parry.
Then taking advantage of the victory, an elbow strike to the opponent’s jaw, turning around to throw another punch.
Boom!
The recently appeared Defense Talisman shattered.
Blood Qi surged, the fist covered with Gang Qi.
A weighty punch struck the cheek in midair.
This punch landed on Qing Chenxi’s cheek just as the talisman defense was formed.
Bang!
Crack!
The face twisted, bones shattered.
Qing Chenxi screamed, but didn’t step back, using all her strength to thrust the sword in her hand.
Pukch!
The sword, with tremendous force, penetrated the talisman defense, stabbing into Gu An’s abdomen.
Blood scattered, and feeling excruciating pain, Gu An didn’t dare hesitate and stepped forward, letting the sword penetrate his abdomen.
Just to get to Qing Chenxi’s side.
At this moment, his fist was covered with Perfect Mountain Opening Fist, the first volume of Heavenly Gang Qi.
“Senior, the position is just right now.”
Gu An smirked, releasing a punch.
Boom!
The fist penetrated everything, the magic robe shattered, and flesh disintegrated like foam.
The massive Blood Qi force pierced through Qing Chenxi’s body, landing on the wall behind her.
The entire wall collapsed with a bang.
Only then did the fluctuations of power cease.
Qing Chenxi also felt the lifeforce draining from her body, unable to gather any strength.
At this point, she had a moment to look at the person before her.
Under the moonlight, his appearance was quite clear.
Yet, she never imagined that the person taking action would be him.
“Is it you?
How is this possible?” Qing Chenxi, with resentment in her eyes, said:
“I’ve always been careful, but I underestimated you.”
Gu An carefully pulled the long sword out, then used a healing talisman to stop the bleeding, and took a detoxification pill just in case it was poisoned.
However, detoxification pills can only counter simple poisons.
Then, looking at the person before him, he said calmly:
“Senior was careful, junior was also very careful.”
“So it was also you who killed Ye Song and the others?” Qing Chenxi stumbled backward, then fell to the ground.
Staring deathly at Gu An, if looks could kill, the person before her would have already been dead.
“I also wanted to be an ordinary disciple, not involved in your conflicts, but you forced me,” Gu An’s hand formed a fireball, casually dropping it on the ground.
The fire began to burn.
“Hehe,” Qing Chenxi said unwillingly to Gu An: “I’m not that easy to kill, I’ve said there will be people who will avenge me.
We will meet again soon.”
After collecting her storage treasure and spirit sword, Gu An approached Qing Chenxi, lifted the spirit sword and said:
“Then, senior, remember to walk slowly, just in case you wait for me.”
As he spoke, Gu An stabbed down with the sword in the light of the fire.
Ending the nightmare thoroughly in her horrified gaze.
After ensuring that she was truly dead, and the fire was large enough, Gu An finally left.
Sometime later.
Some people arrived at the ancient temple.
Seeing the big fire, some found it hard to believe.
They then extinguished the fire with magic.
A middle-aged man was the first to discover the body.
The expressions of the several people darkened.
One of the women said, “Is this Junior Sister Qing?”
“It should be,” the middle-aged man said.
“Let’s go back and inform the sect first, starting the mission with one fewer person, our risk is too high.”
…
Back in the courtyard, Gu An ignored the big eye fish jumping in the pond and quickly returned to his room, starting to practice his cultivation technique to stabilize his injuries.
This journey, all the healing talismans were used up, as were the defense talismans.
Everything else that could be used was similarly exhausted.
The shield also broke.
Not very useful.
Qing Chenxi is dead.
And died outside, so the sect investigation wouldn’t trace back to him.
So, for now, it’s safe.
As for the people behind Qing Chenxi, they wouldn’t suspect it was him either.
Surely they can’t just find someone to hold accountable by approaching him?
That way, they wouldn’t need to investigate to find the real culprit, right?
Gu An shook his head, deciding not to think further on it.
First, recover his body.
By the next day, Gu An had improved a lot.
He hadn’t had time to check Qing Chenxi’s storage treasure.
After hiding his stuff, he went logging.
For three consecutive days, there were no incidents.
His injuries were no longer severe.
On the fourth day, news suddenly came from the Outer Sect, saying they were going to thoroughly investigate Qing Chenxi’s death.
Especially some outer disciples were directly summoned for questioning.
Although it wasn’t Gu An’s turn, he was still worried.
Why would this happen?
With doubts, Gu An returned to his residence.
Looking toward the pond, he noticed the big eye fish hiding again.
Did Chu Meng come?
Just in time, perhaps he could ask about Qing Chenxi’s matters then.
