"Who might you be?"
"..."
In the dense forest, there was no response at all.
It seed the master of the barrier had no intention of engaging in much conversation.
However, the distant forest mist, with mountain ash swirling around, revealed a glimr of light, which apparently indicated the "way out."
Gu Shen squinted his eyes.
He had no intention of taking advantage to leave together; the entire barrier was under the control of this mysterious visitor. Who to let go and how to let them go was all a matter of whims, making it unrealistic for him to break through by force.
For now, this master of the barrier didn’t appear to have any hostility.
Thus, sending Shen Li and Zhuang Su away seed like a good choice.
Their presence was more of a hassle; leaving could notify the South Cave base camp, providing reinforcents if anything unexpected happened.
The thought settled.
Gu Shen patted Little Iron Man’s shoulder calmly, saying, "Take Mr. Zhuang and leave here."
"What about you?"
Shen Li did not move but stared intensely at the spot in the dense forest, stubbornly, "If I go, what about you?"
Gu Shen couldn’t help but laugh and feel annoyed.
"Are you worried about my safety? Take care of yourself first..."
He transmitted annoyedly, "Get out of here quickly, it’s an order from the Divine Throne!"
Little Iron Man felt a piercing pain in his brow.
He was dumbfounded, looking at Gu Shen.
After forming the Angel Envoy contract... he could no longer disobey the Divine Throne’s orders!
Usually, Gu Shen wouldn’t use his Divine Throne privilege.
But at this mont, he had no ti to explain much to Shen Li... Under the compelling demand of the Netherworld King Authority, Shen Li, carrying Mr. Zhuang, stepped towards the direction where the mountain ash dispersed and left.
Soon, the barrier returned to "stillness."
This was a kind of alternative deathly silence.
The beast tide rolled below, not a single Extraordinary Beast Spirit raised its head. The space Gu Shen found himself in seed to be in an alternate-dinsional void, completely transparent and non-existent.
"Now... can you co out and et?"
Gu Shen appeared to relax his posture, but in reality, he gripped the Truth Ruler without any intention of letting go.
Should the opponent make any attack.
He could imdiately retaliate... with the fastest speed and the fully charged [Truth Ruler]!
"Nice to et you."
A few seconds later, a response finally echoed again from the depths of the forest.
This ti, it was no longer the ethereal sound concealed by spiritual power.
Gu Shen’s gaze fell directly ahead, as darkness shattered, and a deep red glow pierced through the mountain mist. The position of the barrier’s master had never moved an inch from deep within the dense forest.
The owner of the voice was a young man, a gentle breeze rustling his scarlet cloak.
It was a "first eting."
But not entirely.
Because in the database, Gu Shen had seen this face countless tis. It was a sharp, handso face, with two sword scars under his right eye, one long and one short, the longer one almost crossing half his cheek.
Among the four Divine Envoys of the Source Tower, this one ranked first.
And deservedly so.
"Red Dragon..."
Gu Shen frowned, this was beyond what he expected.
This Extraordinary Barrier showed no malicious intent toward him.
But if it was set by the four Divine Envoys, one would expect them to seize this opportunity to take him down.
"It’s ."
On this giant tree, with thousands of branches, Red Dragon chose the most withered one. His weight wasn’t light, causing the branch to sway, making a sound of unbearable burden as the wind blew, yet it didn’t break.
Red Dragon crossed his arms, a slight smile on his face.
"Wait... where’s Bai Xiu?"
Gu Shen realized sothing was off; in this dense forest, the strongest should be Little Xiuzi.
With Bai Xiu present, it would be impossible for Red Dragon to set up an Extraordinary Barrier here.
"..."
Red Dragon simply responded with a faint smile.
All was understood without words.
Gu Shen’s expression darkened. The Source Tower was searching everywhere for the "Cloud Mirror target," and though he had given Gu Xiaoman the "Ghost Veil" to alter her appearance and aura, he couldn’t be sure if the Sky Divine Throne had any special thod to lock onto her signal.
Red Dragon’s appearance was very troubling.
If he had already encountered Bai Xiu...
Then eting with him at this mont was practically declaring another bad news.
Gu Xiaoman had been discovered.
"Gu Shen, I know you’re exceptionally gifted, an ’S-class’ rare in the East Continent..."
Red Dragon spoke softly, "But this world has more than just one ’S-class’. According to the Security Committee’s grading standards, Bai Xiu is considered S-class, and Mu Wanqiu should also be S-class. By the way, I once personally killed a fourth-rank ’S-class’ in the Southern Continent. So, this so-called ’S-class’ is not that rare."
"What are you trying to say?"
Gu Shen asked coldly, the previously unfelt murderous intent within the barrier suddenly surged.
"What I an to say... is actually quite simple."
Red Dragon said blandly, "Regarding ’Gu Xiaoman’s information, I already know everything."
This statent made Gu Shen’s heart sink.
Which ant Red Dragon had already clashed with Bai Xiu!
Red Dragon continued calmly, "I’m not sure how your talent compares to another ’S-class’, Bai Xiu, from the East Continent... This is our first eting, and I’ve prepared a little gift for you. Please don’t refuse, accept it all."
As soon as he finished speaking.
"Boom!"
The branch, which had been bent to its limit, snapped with a crack, and his body shot out abruptly!
In a blink, the crimson figure that had been dozens of ters away was suddenly in front of Gu Shen, less than a ter away.
