Chapter 386 Are Independent Cultivators Easy to Bully?
"Uncle Zhang, come here!" Faced with the urging of his elders, Yang Zhenling replied, and then looked at Gu Zheng: "Fellow Taoist Gu, since you are a casual cultivator, why don't you come with us!"
When Yang Zhenling said this, Gu Zheng saw something strange flash in his eyes, as if there was a deep meaning in walking together.
"Master Nephew Yang, isn't it too abrupt for you to send out such an invitation? Fellow Taoist Gu is a casual cultivator, and casual cultivators like to be alone, so let's not force others to make things difficult." Luo Jin spoke, with a trace of reproach in his voice. The smell of Yang Zhenling is in it.
"That's right, I just like to be alone. I appreciate Fellow Daoist Yang's kindness. Let's just say goodbye!"
Although they didn't know what Yang Zhenling and Luo Jin were singing, Gu Zheng took this opportunity to leave.
"Well, since the ancient Taoist friend likes to travel alone, I won't try to persuade him to stay. We will meet again later. The road along the way is dangerous, so the ancient Taoist friend should be careful."
Yang Zhenling cupped her hands and said goodbye to Gu Zheng, who returned the favor and immediately went on the road. As for the middle-aged man Luo Jin, he looked at Gu Zheng's disappearing back and smiled a little sinisterly and complicatedly.
Gu Zheng's figure quickly disappeared into the wind and snow, and the fifteen people from the Tianluo faction immediately set off on the road, as if they wanted to keep up with Gu Zheng's pace.
Ten people from the Tianxin sect also set out on the road, but they did not closely follow the people from the Tianluo sect, but kept a little distance from them.
Among the ten people from the Tianxin sect, Uncle Zhang and Yang Zhenling, plus a man wrapped in a white fox robe, walked at the back of the team.
"Master Nephew Zhenling, did you find anything when you invited Gu An to accompany you just now?" Master Zhang asked in a low voice.
"It's not like I discovered anything, but I felt that it would be very difficult for casual cultivators to practice, and he was about the same age as me, so I invited him." Yang Zhenling smiled.
"It's not a discovery, but what is it? I don't believe that just based on what you said, you are really willing to risk offending Luo Jin and extend an invitation to him." Uncle Zhang also smiled.
"Senior Brother Zhenling has the ability to see through other people's cultivation. Could it be that this man who looks similar to you actually has a very high cultivation level?"
The person wrapped in the white fox robe spoke. She was a woman, and her voice was as clear as a mountain spring.
"I couldn't see through his cultivation, so this is a strange thing. But I didn't lie. I extended the invitation to him, not because he was unusual! I really felt that he was about the same age as me. , He is also a casual cultivator, so I just don’t want to see anything happen to him." Yang Zhenling smiled bitterly.
"You couldn't see through his cultivation? What's going on? Could it be that his cultivation has reached a terrifying level, so you can't see through it?" Uncle Zhang was so shocked that he almost bit his tongue.
"Even if he is a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Transformation, I can tell his cultivation at a glance. Does Master Zhang think that Gu An's cultivation has surpassed that of the late Qi Transformation stage? This is obviously impossible!" Yang Zhenling shook his head.
"Senior Brother Yang, as you said, what is this abnormal situation all about?" The voice of the woman in white robe was slightly curious.
"The world is full of wonders. I can see other people's cultivation. This is a very strange thing in itself! What do you think is going on?" Seeing that the two of them were silent, Yang Zhenling smiled and said, "So Come on! You don’t have to be too surprised about this matter. Although I can’t see through his cultivation level, it doesn’t mean that his cultivation level must be very high.”
"Yes." Master Zhang nodded.
"To say that Luo Jin is really insidious, let him go alone..."
"Okay, let's not mention this matter again. If it is heard, it will hinder the harmonious relationship between our Tianxin sect and Tianluo sect. Besides, your senior brother Yang also warned him that the road is dangerous. As for whether he can listen It’s up to him to come out.”
Before the white-robed woman finished speaking, she was interrupted by Uncle Zhang.
"What's so great, aren't they just a sect with more people than us?"
The woman in white robe murmured something softly, and the three of them fell into silence.
The Tianluo faction was traveling so fast that Gu Zheng, who had originally disappeared from their sight, could already be faintly seen in the wind and snow.
"Senior Brother Luo, do you think people from the devil's path will take action?"
Looking at Gu Zheng's figure, the charming man walking with Luo Jin asked softly.
"Shangguan Feng, could you please stay away from me?" Luo Jin glared at the seductive man with disgust.
"Senior Brother Luo, do you think people from the devil's path will take action?"
Faced with Luo Jin's disgust, Shangguanfeng did not comply. He just increased his tone and asked the question again word for word.
"I don't know, but according to their behavior, it is very likely that they will take action." The disgust on Luo Jin's face subsided, and he said with a hint of impatience.
"Senior Brother Luo, the demons are prepared. If they take action later, you can take revenge, but don't chase them too far, lest you fall into the trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain." Shangguan Feng paused, and then said: "We When I came to Kunlun for the first time, it was an accident to meet someone from the Demonic Path. However, as the two leaders of the Tianluo Sect this time, the most important thing for us is to ensure the safety of the disciples in the sect to the greatest extent, so I don’t want you to Motivated."
"knew."
Luo Jin waved his hand impatiently, and the scene that made him so angry the day before appeared in front of his eyes.
The day before yesterday, the people of Tianluo Sect and Tianxin Sect were attacked by the demons in the Kunlun Mountains.
The demons were very arrogant, saying that this was the era of the decline of the righteous path and the prosperity of the demons. Now that all sects had to go to Kunlun Sect to receive benefits, they had to give some benefits to the righteous people. As for the benefits mentioned by the demons, they were naturally sneak attacks. They would not let Luo Jin and others go to Kunlun Sect too smoothly.
The demons dared to be so arrogant during the Kunlun event. This kind of thing was unprecedented. The people of Tianluo Sect and Tianxin Sect were naturally very angry about the rampant demons, so there was a war later.
It must be said that the demons dared to attack the righteous people at this time, and their strength should not be underestimated. In the following battle, there were casualties in the Tianluo Sect and Tianxin Sect, and Luo Jin's beloved disciple died in the battle.
The battle ended after both the good and evil sides paid some price. Before leaving, the people of the Demonic Path said that this sneak attack was just the beginning. As long as the people of the Tianluo Sect and the Tianxin Sect did not come to the Kunlun Sect, they would have to be afraid.
Since the people of the Demonic Path had already said so, Luo Jin, who was eager for revenge, thought that this was a good opportunity to avenge himself after seeing Gu Zheng.
The snow fell even harder, and the goose-feather-like snowflakes were swept by the strong wind, making it impossible for people to open their eyes.
Yang Zhenling and Luo Jin had different attitudes. Luo Jin, who did not want him to go with him, now followed him not far behind, which made Gu Zheng have to be more careful. Logically speaking, since Luo Jin did not want him to go with him, the people of the Tianluo Sect should stay away from him.
"Is it just because I am too cautious?"
Gu Zheng's heart moved, and he suddenly sped up. After about ten minutes, his speed slowed down again.
"Sure enough, there is something fishy going on. If I'm fast, you're fast too. If I'm slow, you're slow too. If this isn't tracking, what else can it be? If it wasn't for the heavy snow, they were afraid of losing me, so they followed me closely. Otherwise, it would be hard to find me. But then again, what's the purpose of following me?" Gu Zheng thought.
"You're not looking for treasure, so it doesn't make sense to follow you, but if they're using you as bait, then everything makes sense." The voice of the weapon spirit sounded.
"Bait? Who are they trying to lure? Someone from the Demonic Path?"
Gu Zheng frowned and thought of this possibility. After all, when he was in the sect, he had heard Elder Wuyou mention that the Demonic Path's activities have been getting more and more frequent recently.
"Very likely." The weapon spirit said.
"If this is true, the Demonic Path is really rampant. After all, this place is not far from the Kunlun Sect." Gu Zheng shook his head.
"Be careful. If it's really the Demonic Path, they dare to take action in the Kunlun Mountains. They must have something to rely on." The weapon spirit reminded.
"Haha." Gu Zheng laughed: "Since I know that I am being used as bait, I will move forward carefully. I might as well jump out of this trap! Whoever wants to be a bait can do it, but I won't do it."
In the wind and snow, Gu Zheng's figure deviated from the route, which made Luo Jin, who was following him, frown.
"What is he going to do? Going that way will get him farther away from Kunlun Sect." Luo Jin murmured.
"Two possibilities, one is that he has other things to do, and the other is that he has noticed our intentions." Shangguan Feng said.
"Damn it!" Luo Jin cursed: "No matter why he went that way, I can't let him do what he wants."
"What are you going to do?" Shangguan Feng frowned.
"Explain to him that he has to go, whether he wants to or not!"
When Luo Jin's voice fell, he had already rushed out. Shangguan Feng did not stop him. After all, what Luo Jin said was also a solution.
Although Shangguan Feng wanted to ensure the safety of the accompanying disciples to the greatest extent, if he was always on guard against sneak attacks, it would be better to take the initiative. So Shangguan Feng followed Luo Jin and chased him out.
Seeing someone chasing him from behind, Gu Zheng stopped and a hint of sneer appeared on his lips: "Fellow Daoist Luo, are you reluctant to leave me?"
Seeing the sneer on Gu Zheng's face, Luo Jin understood that this was the second possibility Shangguan Feng mentioned, and the other party guessed their intention! In this case, Luo Jin thought it would be easier and just said it directly.
"Yes, I really don't want to leave you, Fellow Daoist Gu!" Luo Jin also smiled coldly: "To be invited to Kunlun Sect, even if you are a casual cultivator, you must be a righteous person. As a righteous person, it is your responsibility to eliminate demons and defend the way. Now there are people from the evil way sneaking around in the dark, attacking us righteous people who are going to Kunlun Sect! We and Tianxin Sect have fought with them once before, and the other party was defeated and fled in the end, but they also made a promise that they would not let us have peace along the way, so no matter what, Fellow Daoist Gu must be the bait, and this is also for your own good!"
"For my own good, why can't I see it?" Gu Zheng sneered.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, think about it, if you go on alone, if you meet someone from the evil way, then you will die. If you go forward as a bait, although it will be a little dangerous, we are your strong backing!" Shangguan Feng chuckled.
Gu Zheng frowned in disgust, a grown man laughing like that really gave people goose bumps.
"Even if there is no chance of survival, it has nothing to do with you, right? I chose the path myself, and I am happy even if I die! Don't tell me about being a righteous person. Do righteous people have to be used by others and still welcome others with a smile? Besides, aren't you also righteous people? Since all you need is a bait, you have so many disciples, you can find a few to go in front and replace my role!" Gu Zheng laughed.
"Don't talk nonsense to me! Are you going or not?"
Luo Jin roared and took a step forward, as if he wanted to solve the problem by force.
"Senior Luo Jin, after all, we are also righteous people. Isn't it bad to do this?" The people of Tianxin Sect had also arrived, and Yang Zhenling spoke regardless of his uncle Zhang's obstruction.
"Boy, don't you want to avenge your dead fellow disciples? If you do, stay here honestly and don't make trouble for no reason!" Luo Jin turned around and glared at Yang Zhenling fiercely.
"You don't need to use this method if you want revenge, right? What's the difference between this kind of behavior and the so-called magic? Can you do whatever it takes to achieve your goal?" The white-robed woman from Tianxin Sect also spoke up.
Luo Jin was furious: "You..."
"Enough, you two are really disrespectful. Is my uncle the leader, or are you two the leaders?"
Seeing that he was going to make trouble with Tianluo Sect, Uncle Zhang quickly scolded him. Although Yang Zhenling and the white-robed woman had special identities, he still felt uncomfortable and embarrassed for not obeying the leader.
"Hey." Yang Zhenling sighed and returned to the team.
"Of course you are the leader." The white-robed woman muttered softly and also returned to the team.
"Hmph." Luo Jin sneered at the people of Tianxin Sect with satisfaction, and then looked at Gu Zheng with hatred: "Leave? Or not?"
"You look like you are going to fight? Do you think I was brought up by fear? Or do you think that casual cultivators are easy to bully?"
Gu Zheng narrowed his eyes and felt very funny. To him, the situation he was facing now was like a child threatening an adult, and he was still using the force that he thought was great.
"I think you are a casual cultivator and easy to bully, so what?"
Luo Jin roared and kicked Gu Zheng in the air.
The external internal energy turned into the shape of a tiger's head, and the flying snow around seemed to be swept by a strong wind, looking very powerful.
Gu Zheng sneered in his heart, and he used the "Piaomiao Huanshen Technique" to easily avoid the attacking internal energy and quickly approached Luo Jin.
The distance between the two was not far, and Gu Zheng's "Piaomiao Huanshen Technique" was fast and weird. Luo Jin, who opened his eyes wide, did not expect things to change like this! In his opinion, it was good that Gu Zheng could reach the initial stage of the fourth level, but now it was obviously not what he imagined.
Panicked, Luo Jin immediately used his fists and feet to try to stop Gu Zheng from approaching, but Gu Zheng had already come close, and the internal energy he released turned into a fist and hit him hard in the stomach.
"Ah!"
Luo Jin screamed in pain and flew backwards.
