My Five Bigshot Seniors: I am The Most Coddled Junior!-Chapter 407 - 87: [First Update]

As soon as the Rongzhi spoke, the suction from its mouth disappeared, and those who were forced to fly toward it fell down. Several people in the crowd simultaneously drew their weapons to attack the Rongzhi.

For a moment, attacks of various colors flew toward the Rongzhi from different angles. Among those present were people with higher cultivation levels than Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu, and their attacks also had an effect on Rongzhi. For a time, Rongzhi couldn’t focus on others, allowing Jun Wu and the others a moment to breathe.

"Thank goodness, there are people here with relatively high cultivation levels. If everyone works together, we should be able to defeat the Rongzhi." Gu Qingqing looked at the few people attacking and felt somewhat relieved.

However, Jun Wu wasn’t as optimistic as Gu Qingqing. He looked at the few people attacking, then glanced at the Rongzhi, frowning deeply.

"What’s wrong? Ah Wu, is there something wrong?" Seeing Jun Wu’s expression, the smile on Gu Qingqing’s face disappeared, and she asked doubtfully.

"The situation isn’t very optimistic. We underestimated the Rongzhi’s cultivation level. Its cultivation seemed to have increased since it first appeared, and even those with the highest cultivation among those attacking are only at the Golden Immortal Realm, not a match for Rongzhi!" Jun Wu analyzed calmly with a serious expression.

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingqing immediately looked at the Rongzhi and found, as Jun Wu said, that its cultivation level was indeed higher than before, and the one with the highest cultivation among those attacking was indeed at the Golden Immortal Realm, definitely not a match for the Rongzhi. Her expression turned serious as well.

"What do we do? There are so many people here, and even if we wanted to escape, we probably couldn’t." Gu Qingqing was somewhat anxious and frustrated, realizing for the first time that her luck wasn’t great. Just coming to see the scenery, she encountered the legendary Rongzhi. It was just too unlucky!

Jun Wu didn’t speak immediately, only furrowing his brows tighter, his mind working rapidly to find a way for them to escape.

While Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu were talking, the Rongzhi launched another attack. Its nine heads opened their mouths simultaneously, and a strong suction appeared from its mouths, pulling everything around uncontrollably toward them.

Caught off guard, Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu also moved a bit toward the Rongzhi. Fortunately, Gu Qingqing hadn’t retracted her Mixed Immortal Silk earlier, so they only moved a short distance before being pulled back, unlike some people who were directly sucked in.

"Ah!"

Another scream echoed as a man was sucked right into the Rongzhi’s mouth and swallowed.

"What do we do? Ah Wu, the suction from the Rongzhi’s mouth is too strong and too hard to resist!" Gu Qingqing shouted to Jun Wu while struggling to stay steady.

Jun Wu glanced at the Rongzhi and then around him, his eyes flickering, his mind racing frantically, trying to quickly find a solution to the problem.

Seeing the ground columns barely holding on, about to be sucked into the Rongzhi’s mouth, Jun Wu hadn’t yet thought of a plan and could only first use the scimitar to attack the Rongzhi, trying to divert its attention. This might also make the Rongzhi close its mouth.

Receiving the scimitar attack once again, although it didn’t hurt it, the Rongzhi felt pain, making it extremely angry. This time, the Rongzhi’s gaze fixed on Jun Wu, its eyes immediately filled with excitement and malevolence.

"Found you, daring to attack me. I’m going to make you pay this time!" it said, moving toward Jun Wu as it spoke.

Due to its speech, the suction disappeared again, and those who were being sucked in fell down once more.

The Rongzhi approached Jun Wu and Gu Qingqing, opening its large mouth with a ferocious grin, aiming to bite Jun Wu whole.

Jun Wu didn’t expect the Rongzhi to be so quick; he couldn’t react in time and could only thrust the scimitar in his hand toward the Rongzhi’s mouth, thinking that even if it bit him, he would make sure to injure it.

"Watch out!"

At the critical moment, Gu Qingqing hugged Jun Wu from behind, turned around, and forcefully pushed Jun Wu away, placing herself in front of Jun Wu.

"Geng Geng!"

Jun Wu’s eyes widened, his pupils shrinking, looking at Gu Qingqing with a face full of terror, shouting her name.

He never expected Gu Qingqing to rush over and push him away, instinctively reaching out to grab her, his body leaning toward her.

Just as the Rongzhi was about to swallow Gu Qingqing, its teeth about to touch her, suddenly a golden light burst from her wrist. Immediately, the light enveloped Gu Qingqing, and the rays, upon touching the Rongzhi’s mouth, instantly injured it, blood flowing out, and the Rongzhi’s expression turned extremely painful.

"Geng Geng!"

As the light faded, Jun Wu rushed to Gu Qingqing’s side, pulling her back dozens of meters before landing on the ground, anxiously checking on her condition.

"I’m fine, Ah Wu," Gu Qingqing quickly said, seeing how worried Jun Wu was, "You forgot? I have the bracelet my master gave me; the Rongzhi’s attack can’t hurt me!"

It was also because of this bracelet that Gu Qingqing dared to push Jun Wu away and face Rongzhi herself. The situation was too urgent, and she did not have the time to explain to Jun Wu.

After Jun Wu finished checking Gu Qingqing’s body and confirmed that she was indeed uninjured, he felt his heart finally relax upon hearing Gu Qingqing’s explanation.

He held Gu Qingqing tightly, resting against her neck, not allowing her to see his vulnerability.

"Geng Geng, don’t do that again. My heart almost stopped beating just now, it was too thrilling! I don’t want you to sacrifice for me, I just want you to be safe!" Jun Wu’s voice was still trembling, even his body was slightly shaking. No one knew that when he saw Rongzhi almost biting Gu Qingqing, his heart felt as if it was gripped tightly, almost suffocating him.

He couldn’t imagine how he would live without Gu Qingqing.

"I’m fine, Ah Wu, don’t worry. I was too anxious just now and couldn’t explain it to you. I won’t let myself easily fall into danger!" Feeling Jun Wu’s fear, Gu Qingqing gently patted his back with a very tender tone.

Jun Wu didn’t speak. He was inherently a very calm person and quickly collected his emotions, knowing that now was not the time for romance.

The two turned around and looked at Rongzhi. Rongzhi was covering one of its mouths, looking at Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu with a face full of resentment, but it did not immediately attack them, instead observing the two.

Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu exchanged a glance, surprised at Rongzhi’s reaction.

Jun Wu’s eyes flickered, and he quickly understood why Rongzhi was hesitating to make a move.

"It must have been frightened by the attack just now, thinking it’s your own method, so it’s observing to see if you are really that powerful." He quickly conveyed his speculation to Gu Qingqing through voice transmission, advising her to not act rashly.

After hearing Jun Wu’s guess, Gu Qingqing glanced at Rongzhi, her gaze fixed on its wounded head. A dark light flashed in her eyes as she gave a barely noticeable nod to Jun Wu.

Suddenly, the scene became very eerie. Rongzhi was wary of the unknown attack from Gu Qingqing, while Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu were cautious of Rongzhi. No one dared to act recklessly, all fearing the other would find a flaw.

Rongzhi’s nine pairs of eyes looked at the nearby crowd, then at Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu, its eyeballs rotating, its expression alternating between gloominess and ferocity, as if thinking of something.

Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu also stared at Rongzhi, their faces calm, but their minds racing, thinking of ways to resolve the predicament in front of them.

This strange atmosphere continued for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Rongzhi, seeing Gu Qingqing remain still for a long time, thought the previous attack was likely a magical artifact from her, its eyeballs rotated again, its figure suddenly flashing, once more appearing in front of Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu.

"I’m going to eat you!" it roared, opening its mouth wide again to bite at Gu Qingqing. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu, who were always on guard, retreated quickly the moment Rongzhi’s figure disappeared, moving back dozens of meters at once when Rongzhi rushed forward.

Rongzhi did not expect the two to react so quickly, biting into empty air, making it extremely furious.

Relentlessly, it charged at Gu Qingqing, but Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu always moved before it got close, playing a game of hide and seek with Rongzhi.

At this moment, others, seeing Rongzhi’s attention caught by Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu, attempted sword flight. Rongzhi ignored them completely, and they flew away in haste. Others, seeing this, also flew away on their swords.

Soon, only Gu Qingqing, Jun Wu, and Rongzhi were left, just the two humans and the beast.

Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu looked around and, seeing no one else, exchanged a glance and simultaneously nodded.

As Rongzhi attacked again, Gu Qingqing retreated once more.

"Fixed!"

The mysterious, ethereal voice floated from Gu Qingqing’s mouth, and Rongzhi, who was about to chase after her, suddenly froze.

At this moment, Gu Qingqing clasped a talisman, throwing it with force. The talisman was activated in midair, and then a golden sword light flew out from it, fiercely slashing towards Rongzhi.

This was given to Gu Qingqing by Immortal Venerable Hao Lan for self-defense before entering the Secret Realm. It could unleash an attack of a Daluo Golden Immortal level. The reason they kept dodging was to attract Rongzhi’s attention, allowing others to leave. Once others were gone, Gu Qingqing could use the Word Spirit Technique to immobilize Rongzhi, avoiding any accidents when using the Sword Talisman.

The golden sword light fell on Rongzhi, and the head it stretched out was directly chopped off. At this moment, the effect of the Word Spirit Technique also disappeared, given that Rongzhi’s cultivation was much higher than Gu Qingqing’s, the effect’s duration was limited.

Blood spurted from the severed place, and Rongzhi’s remaining eight heads roared in fury!
