Suddenly, the monster roared. “Glory!”
Its vertical eye opened, and a vivid red beam descended towards Gu Han.
Damn it! Gu Han’s heart dropped, having personally witnessed the beam's power. However, the distance between them was extrely close. It was already too late to dodge. With no other choice, he could only raise his sword, narrowly and perilously blocking this lethal strike.
A tallic ring sounded and Gu Han instantly flew backward. As soon as he landed, he felt his vital qi and blood churning uncontrollably, and couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
The monster had no intention of letting Gu Han go. “Glory!”
With another roar, it charged at him once more.
ng Xing’s voice suddenly ca over. “Yang Lin, forget about him! Get out of here, now!”
In the distance, Yang Lin was panting heavily, his aura in disarray. Under the monster’s frenzied assault, he was in a miserable state, gradually losing his ground. Missing one hand had significantly impacted his combat power. If not for his physique’s formidable recovery ability, he would have perished long ago.
ng Xing’s reminder made him realize that there was more than one monster. If he stayed any longer, he would really die.
Thinking this, he unleashed the full extent of his cultivation, forcibly repelling the monster over ten zhang away. “Go to hell!”
He flickered, preparing to leave this place.
Suddenly, Gu Han said, full of killing intent, “Leave your life behind!”
Locked by the killing intent, Yang Lin stiffened. He never imagined Gu Han would be this insane. With monsters all around and his own safety in jeopardy, Gu Han still didn’t want to let go.
“You crazy bitch!” cursed Yang Lin.
Gu Han paid him no mind, his killing intent soaring. “Kill!”
Ignoring the monster chasing behind him, his sword flashed, slashing down toward Yang Lin.
Yang Lin gritted his teeth. “Kill ? Dream on!”
His left hand flipped over, and the Profound Ironwood spear reappeared. Even after using almost all his strength and cultivation, he could barely block it.
With a booming explosion, Yang Lin was sent flying far away, vomiting blood. The huge impact gave him a room for escape.
At the sa ti, the monster’s massive palm swept toward Gu Han. He secretly sighed, feeling so regret. Gu Han was so close to finishing Yang Lin off!
Yang Lin was full of hatred. “I will get my revenge!”
Gu Han turned cold. His sword, originally aid at the monster, imdiately changed direction toward Yang Lin. Several flashes of bright light shot out. The Great Evolution Sword Qi!
Yang Lin failed to dodge in ti, and his left hand was also severed.
He scread miserably, “AAAH!!! I will definitely kill you!”
Leaving behind that fierce threat, he imdiately joined ng Xing, fleeing rapidly with the remaining dozen or so mbers of their families.
At the sa ti, Gu Han was also grazed by the monster. That was the price he paid for that strike. He was sent flying out once again, his barrier flickering uncertainly, almost shattering on the spot.
He was truly enraged now. “Kill!”
With a fierce roar, the Kill Sword rose again.
The monster seed unaware and senseless. “Glory!”
Its vertical eye opened again, pulsating with a red light.
Gu Han’s Kill Sword also arrived before it, piercing directly into the monster’s vertical eye.
The monster trembled incessantly, letting out an extrely shrill and miserable scream. Then, it collapsed with a thud, seemingly having exhausted all of its power.
Wisps of red mist continuously dissipated from its body, and it returned to its previous appearance.
Judging by the attire, it was a Qixia Court's disciple. A sword slash marked its forehead. Gu Han wasn't hitting randomly. He rembered clearly how Zheng Ning died that day, making him one of the very few who knew the weakness of this kind of monster.
In the next mont, his expression changed, and he spat out another mouthful of blood. The hidden injury from the monster had erupted.
anwhile, the monster that had been dealing with Yang Lin switched targets to Gu Han.
Gu Han had no intention of prolonging the fight. Not only were these monsters extrely difficult to kill, but there was also no benefit in doing so. He wouldn’t foolishly stay and fight head-on.
Suddenly, a whistling sound ca from the distance. A purple golden hamr descended from the sky, colliding squarely with the monster. It scread. Even with its formidable defense and restorative red mist, its tendons were severed and bones fractured, temporarily losing its combat power.
Imdiately after, Murong Yan’s coarse, loud voice rang out. “Brother Gu, are you alright?!”
“I’m fine.”
Gu Han finally relaxed after seeing Murong Yan and the others. Although each was bearing injuries, they were not seriously hard. Good! They’re all safe!
Murong Yan recalled her hamr as she looked around. “Brother Gu, where are Yang Lin and the others?”
A cold light flashed in Gu Han’s eyes. “They escaped. I’ll spare their lives for now, and settle accounts with them later!”
Shen Xuan turned grave. “Brother Gu, from my observation, although these monsters are powerful, they possess no rationality. As long as we leave their perception range, they won’t pursue further.”
Yang Ying nodded. “Right. We must leave before they surround us!”
The group quickly reached an agreent. They chose a random direction and fled. At first, several monsters gave chase, but they were all repelled under the combined efforts of the group. Once the monsters lost perception of the group, they beca dazed and muddled again, wandering aimlessly within the secret realm.
After so ti, Gu Han’s expression changed, and he abruptly stopped. “Damn it!”
Murong Yan was startled. “What’s wrong? Did your injury flare up?”
Gu Han said with a serious face, “I forgot to pick the loots up!”
The group was speechless. He's still thinking about worldly possessions even at a ti like this? He’s the definition of greed!!
Gu Han imdiately turned back. “You all go ahead! I’ll go retrieve the items!”
After saying this, he actually started retracing his steps back the way they ca.
Murong Yan was so angry she cursed, “Brother Gu, you motherfucker! You really don’t want your life, do you!”
Gu Han waved his hand as he got farther and farther away.
Yang Ying frowned slightly. “I’ll go check on him. He isn’t the kind to do sothing with more loss than gain. There might be so hidden reason. I’ve cooperated with him for a long ti, so I can help him.”
Without delay, Yang Ying chased after Gu Han.
Murong Yan was dumbfounded. She had seen greedy people before, but never one this greedy, and there were two of them!
Shen Xuan had a headache. “Junior Sister, let’s leave a mark and find a place to stop first. Our spirit power won’t last much longer.”
Murong Yan stomped her foot in anger. “Bastards! And there are two of them!”
***
In fact, Yang Ying guessed correctly. No matter how greedy Gu Han was, he wouldn’t risk his life for those ordinary things. What he cared about was sothing else: the red bead.
