Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 747 - 397: Escape with the Divine Light Talisman2

The two instantly exchanged punches and kicks.

Gu Sheng’s fist wind was like a torrential storm, relentlessly attacking Ji Xia.

Although Ji Xia fought back with all her strength, under Gu Sheng’s near-rampaging offensive, she began to show flaws.

After all, she was still a woman, and her explosive power was slightly inferior.

After several rounds, Gu Sheng seized the opportunity and delivered a fierce punch directly to Ji Xia’s chest.

This punch contained all of his Divine Power, directly penetrating Ji Xia’s defenses.

"Ah..."

Ji Xia let out a miserable scream, spitting out a mouthful of blood before collapsing onto the ground.

Gu Sheng ceased his attacks and, using his Divine Sense, detected that Ji Xia’s sea of bitterness had been shattered.

She was dood!

Terror and disbelief shone in Ji Xia’s eyes.

Her body curled into a ball before falling completely silent.

Gu Sheng did not imdiately relax but quickly inspected Ji Xia’s corpse, only letting out a slight breath upon confirming her death.

"Whoosh!"

Just at that mont, a sudden turn of events occurred.

From Ji Xia’s body, a Divine Light Talisman burst forth, emitting dazzling brilliance as it directly flew towards Ji Ziyue.

Before Ji Ziyue could react, the Divine Light Talisman rged into her body.

"No!"

Seeing the ominous situation unfolding, Gu Sheng quickly swam over to Ji Ziyue.

At that mont, Ji Ziyue’s face revealed a mixture of surprise and pain.

"Ziyue, are... are you alright? What just happened with that Divine Light Talisman?"

Gu Sheng asked worriedly.

But Ji Ziyue was in such pain that even breathing was a struggle, let alone answering Gu Sheng’s question.

Seeing Ji Ziyue’s unbearable suffering, Gu Sheng unleashed his own Divine Power to protect Ji Ziyue’s sea of bitterness from being invaded.

anwhile, within Ji Ziyue’s body, the power of the Divine Light Talisman surged.

This formidable energy clashed fiercely with her own Divine Power.

Monts later, the restraints binding Ji Ziyue began to gradually unravel.

She felt her power rapidly returning; the previously sealed sea of bitterness stirred once more, and a great force awakened within her.

"This... What is happening?"

Ji Ziyue regained her composure, her clothes drenched in sweat.

She looked at Gu Sheng with astonishnt, clearly sensing that her strength was constantly growing, and that the previous restraints no longer existed.

"What’s wrong? Do you still feel uncomfortable?"

Gu Sheng asked with concern.

"No, not uncomfortable. I just feel like my restraints have been lifted,"

Ji Ziyue replied, her face filled with joy.

"Lifted... lifted?"

Gu Sheng furrowed his brow slightly, a trace of unease stirring within him.

He understood that Ji Ziyue’s powers were unfathomable. If her restraints were indeed removed, he might not stand a chance against her.

Thus, he decided to test her, to see if Ji Ziyue’s strength had truly been unleashed as she claid.

"Hey! Catch this!"

Gu Sheng spoke as he gently swung a punch.

Though the punch appeared casual, it concealed lethal intent.

"Tsk!"

Ji Ziyue smiled faintly, seemingly having already seen through Gu Sheng’s thoughts.

She lightly raised her hand and firmly blocked Gu Sheng’s punch.

The force she displayed was imnse, leaving Gu Sheng under an unprecedented pressure.

"Your suspicion—I’ve already felt it."

Ji Ziyue said calmly before raising her hand again, sending out a flash of rainbow light toward Gu Sheng.

"Your strength is nothing compared to mine!"

Gu Sheng was alard, realizing his probe had failed.

From this one test, he knew that Ji Ziyue’s power had indeed surpassed him by several realms.

Thinking of this, Gu Sheng made a firm decision to retreat imdiately.

"Whoosh!"

Just like that, Gu Sheng leaped away, turning to flee.

"Trying to leave?"

Ji Ziyue said coldly, "Did you think I’d let you leave so easily?"

Instantly, Ji Ziyue moved like a phantom, catching up to Gu Sheng in the blink of an eye.

Gu Sheng felt a chill behind him.

When he turned around, he saw Ji Ziyue’s palm already pressed against his shoulder.

"You... What do you want?"

Gu Sheng suddenly felt a pang of panic.

"What do I want?"

Ji Ziyue sneered, "You dared to test . Did you not consider the consequences?"

Gu Sheng’s heart tightened, knowing Ji Ziyue wouldn’t let him off easily.

Hurriedly, Gu Sheng said, "Ji Ziyue, don’t forget! If it weren’t for earlier, Ji Xia would have killed you by now."

"So what? You an I should thank you?"

Ji Ziyue scoffed.

"No need for gratitude. Just don’t bite the hand that fed you,"

Gu Sheng said with a slight smile.

"Tsk!"

Ji Ziyue abruptly yanked Gu Sheng forward.

Gu Sheng stumbled and crashed into a nearby tree, slumping to the ground.

"Gu Sheng, should I remind you who it was that restrained my Divine Power?"

"Seems... seems it was... ."

Gu Sheng swallowed nervously, stamring in response.

"Oh, so you rember it was you!"

With that, Ji Ziyue grabbed Gu Sheng’s arm and bit him hard.

Though it was called biting, it only left a row of teeth marks.

After all, Ji Ziyue wasn’t part of the Demon Clan and had no interest in human flesh.

"Ah..."

Gu Sheng cried out in pain.

"Ji Ziyue, you... You’re trying to kill your own husband?"

Gu Sheng scread.

Ji Ziyue’s face turned slightly red upon hearing his words.

Though she was angry, a subtle, inexplicable embarrassnt lingered in her heart.

"Stop talking nonsense! I’ll teach you to stop talking nonsense!"

Ji Ziyue said as she bit Gu Sheng’s arm again.

Her seemingly angry action appeared more like a way to vent her complex emotions.

"You bastard, how dare you talk about like this!"

Ji Ziyue’s voice carried a hint of coquettishness, but her bites were gentle.

The entire process left only a shallow row of teeth marks on Gu Sheng’s arm.

The physical closeness between them created a subtle, different kind of emotion in the air.

Gu Sheng felt Ji Ziyue’s warmth and breath, and his heart wavered.

In that instant, his feelings for Ji Ziyue were far more complicated than what he showed on the surface.

Just then, a rustling sound suddenly ca from not far away.

Both Gu Sheng and Ji Ziyue halted their movents, warily looking toward the source of the sound.

Gu Sheng’s sharp gaze quickly spotted a young woman standing nearby.

She wore an elegant long dress; her hair cascaded like a waterfall, her face delicate and beautiful like a spirit of the forest.

Ji Ziyue’s gaze studied the woman closely.

Suddenly, a flash of surprise appeared in her eyes.

She recognized the woman—it was her handmaid, Ji Ye.

"Ji Ye, why are you here?"

Ji Ziyue asked in surprise.

In that mont, Ji Ziyue felt a sense of gratitude. Ji Ye’s appearance ant her family still cared for her safety.

Ji Ye hurriedly stepped forward, her face filled with urgency. "Miss, you have no idea! Everyone in the family is searching for you. They thought you were captured by the Demon Clan—they’re all worried sick!"

Ji Ziyue felt a warm rush in her heart upon hearing this.

She knew that, even though she was outside, her family’s care for her had never waned.

However, she also understood her situation was complicated and that it wasn’t wise for her family to intervene too much.

Ji Ye’s gaze shifted to Gu Sheng, scrutinizing him carefully.

"This young master doesn’t appear to be a Demon Clan mber. Miss, you and he..."

It was obvious Ji Ye had seen Ji Ziyue’s movents as she pressed against Gu Sheng earlier.

Such close behavior would certainly cause a stir if spread around.

"Uh... I was just teasing him."

Ji Ziyue casually made up an explanation.

Gu Sheng breathed a quiet sigh of relief upon hearing this.

He did not want to be mistaken for a Demon Clan mber nor tarnish Ji Ziyue’s reputation.

"Oh."

Ji Ye replied skeptically.

Ji Ziyue then stepped forward and gently took Ji Ye’s hand, assuming the posture of a close friend.
