Chapter 815 Enlightenment
"Master, be careful!" Li Yifeng in the cave seemed to have sensed this powerful aura and rushed out of the cave, but only saw a black shadow falling from the sky and heading straight for Gu Jiuchen on the top of the mountain.
Gu Jiuchen drew out his long sword, and the sword body made a crisp dragon roar, facing the black shadow. But the opponent came fiercely, and with just one move, Gu Jiuchen was pushed back several steps. Gu Jiuchen stabilized his body, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.
"Master!" The disciples also rushed over, and they were all anxious when they saw Gu Jiuchen injured.
"You retreat, I will deal with him!" Gu Jiuchen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes firm.
But the opponent's strength was unfathomable, and Gu Jiuchen used all his skills, but he was still at a disadvantage. He felt bitter in his heart. Is he really going to die here today?
"Jiuchen, do you remember what I said to you?" In a trance, Ye Linglong's voice rang in Gu Jiuchen's ears, gentle and firm, "Love is the most powerful force in the world."
Love? Gu Jiuchen's heart was shocked. Yes, they have always been too obsessed with strength and tactics, but ignored the most primitive and powerful force in their hearts-love!
"Master! We are here to help you!" Li Yifeng and others could no longer hold back, and they all offered their magic weapons to join the battle.
The black shadow was wrapped in the power of destroying the world, and every attack made the mountain tremble, as if it would collapse at any time. Gu Jiuchen and his disciples tried their best to resist, but they were like a small boat in a storm, which could capsize at any time. Despair spread in the hearts of the disciples. Are they really going to fall here?
Gu Jiuchen looked at the fear in the eyes of his disciples and felt a pain in his heart. He remembered Ye Linglong's words and the days and nights they had fought side by side. A warm current surged into his heart, dispelling the confusion and fear in his heart.
"Children, retreat!" Gu Jiuchen's voice rang out in the chaos, with unquestionable firmness.
"Master!" The disciples were reluctant to leave, but they also knew that staying would only become a burden to the master.
Gu Jiuchen looked at the disciples, his eyes full of love and encouragement, and said: "We have always been too obsessed with strength and skills, but ignored the power deep in our hearts. Linglong said that love is the most powerful force in the world. We are master and apprentice, we are relatives, and the friendship between us is the most powerful force in the world!"
The disciples were shocked when they heard this. They looked at Gu Jiuchen's firm eyes, felt the friendship between each other, and an unprecedented power surged in their hearts.
"Master, we understand!" Li Yifeng spoke first, with a firm light in his eyes.
"We are willing to follow the master until death!" Other disciples also expressed their opinions. Although their voices were immature, they were full of power.
Gu Jiuchen nodded with relief. He knew that they had found the power to overcome fear and defeat powerful enemies.
Gu Jiuchen sat cross-legged, with his palms against Qi Rong and Zhu Tai's backs, and a gentle and powerful force slowly injected into their bodies. This force is different from any previous true qi. It is as warm as spring breeze and as gentle as flowing water, but it contains infinite vitality and power.
Qi Rong and Zhu Tai only felt a warm current flowing through their bodies, and the originally painful injuries were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. Not only that, they also felt a powerful force awakening in their bodies, as if a long-sleeping dragon was slowly waking up.
"Master..." Qi Rong and Zhu Tai opened their eyes, their eyes full of gratitude and awe. They knew that it was the master who saved them in a way they had never seen before, and also let them see hope.
"Children, you did a good job." Gu Jiuchen retracted his palm, with a gratified smile on his face, "Remember, we are a team, we must always believe in each other, and never give up hope."
"Yes, Master!" Qi Rong and Zhu Tai stood up, although their faces were still a little pale, but their eyes were extremely firm.
Gu Jiuchen looked around at all the disciples and said in a deep voice: "Children, let's go!" After that, he walked out of the cave first, followed by seven disciples. Their faces were filled with determination to face death and firm belief in the future.
At this moment, a slight noise suddenly came from the depths of the cave. Gu Jiuchen and others stopped and turned to look, only to see a slender figure slowly standing up.
"Linglong!" Gu Jiuchen exclaimed, ran away, and hugged Ye Linglong in his arms.
Ye Linglong slowly opened her eyes, and what came into her eyes was Gu Jiuchen's familiar and anxious face. She smiled slightly and whispered: "Jiuchen, I'm back."
Gu Jiuchen hugged Ye Linglong tightly, feeling her body temperature, listening to her heartbeat, and his heart was filled with ecstasy and excitement. He knew that his Linglong was really back!
What surprised him even more was that Ye Linglong's breath became stronger, as if she had undergone a transformation like a reborn. Her eyes flashed with unprecedented confidence and determination, as if nothing in the world could stop her.
Ye Linglong gently broke free from Gu Jiuchen's arms, her eyes swept across everyone present, and finally stopped at Gu Jiuchen's face, "Jiuchen, how long have I been unconscious?"
Gu Jiuchen gently tucked the broken hair by her ears behind her ears, "It's only been half a day, how do you feel? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Ye Linglong shook her head and held Gu Jiuchen's hand, "I'm fine, I just had a very long dream."
Gu Jiuchen frowned slightly, "Dream? What kind of dream?"
Ye Linglong turned her head and looked outside the cave, speaking in an ethereal tone, "A dream about you and me, about the past and the future."
She did not elaborate on the content of the dream, but held Gu Jiuchen's hand tighter, "Jiuchen, we will still encounter many challenges, but we will face them together, right?"
Gu Jiuchen held her hand with his backhand and intertwined their fingers, "Linglong, I will always be by your side, no matter the mountains of swords, seas of fire, or the abyss."
"Master, Master, we are the same!" the disciples said in unison, their eyes were firm and full of hope for the future.
Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong looked at each other and smiled. They stood side by side, as if they were two towering mountain peaks, capable of withstanding all the wind and rain in the world.
"Let's go," Gu Jiuchen's voice echoed in the cave, "Let's meet the final challenge!"
When everyone walked out of the cave, they saw a fog in front of them. In the thick fog, there were faint roars, which was creepy.
"What is that sound?" Li Yifeng asked, with a hint of uneasiness in his voice.
"It's them!" Ye Linglong's expression changed, "They are even more powerful than before!"
Gu Jiuchen protected Ye Linglong behind him and said in a deep voice: "Don't be afraid, I'm here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow suddenly rushed out of the fog and headed straight for Gu Jiuchen!
