Chapter 924 Serious Consequences

Gu Jiuchen's heart trembled, and the killing intent in the mysterious man's words made him shudder. Before he could react, the mysterious man flashed and turned into an afterimage, rushing straight towards the Heisha who was fighting fiercely in the distance!

"No!" Gu Jiuchen secretly thought. He immediately understood that the mysterious man was going to kill people and silence them, completely cutting off their chance to use "Linglong Drunk" to turn the tide of the war. He suppressed the surging energy and blood in his body and chased after him. However, he was seriously injured and his speed was greatly reduced. He could only watch the mysterious man approaching Heisha.

"Leader, save me!" Heisha shouted in horror, but what greeted him was the cold and biting palm of the mysterious man. The Black Demon didn't even have time to scream in agony before it was wiped out by the powerful spiritual force and completely disappeared between heaven and earth.

"Hei Sha!" Ye Linglong was heartbroken after witnessing all this. She rushed desperately to the place where Hei Sha disappeared, but she only saw an empty void. Her body was shaky and her face was as pale as paper. The injuries that had been suppressed due to the battle fully exploded at this moment, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, staining the skirt of her chest red.

"Linglong!" Gu Jiuchen was so anxious that he rushed to Ye Linglong's side, hugged her tightly in his arms, and asked anxiously: "How are you? Where are you injured?"

Ye Linglong shook her head weakly, her eyes blurred with tears. She choked and said, "It's all my fault. It's all my fault for missing the best opportunity. If I could have been earlier...earlier..."

"I don't blame you, it's not your fault." Gu Jiuchen stroked her hair distressedly and comforted her softly, "You have tried your best, no one will blame you."

However, he

The words could not ease the self-blame and pain in Ye Linglong's heart. She watched helplessly as the black demon was destroyed in front of her, but she was unable to do anything. This powerlessness made her feel deep despair and fear.

In the distance, Xuan Bing and Xuan Lei are still struggling to hold on, but the Righteous Alliance has been retreating steadily under the attack of the mysterious people, suffering heavy casualties. The death of Heisha was a heavy blow to them. Their already low morale dropped to freezing point, and many people even began to think about quitting.

Gu Jiuchen looked at the chaotic battlefield in front of him, his heart filled with powerlessness and confusion. He knew that they had fallen into an unprecedented predicament, but he could not find any way to break it...

The setting sun is like blood, reflecting the devastated battlefield. Although the Righteous Alliance's front line is still there, exhaustion and despair are written on everyone's faces. The death of Heisha was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, causing the already precarious morale to completely collapse.

Xuan Bing and Xuan Lei are currently trying their best to maintain the final order of the alliance. One of them is a respected elder, and the other is a master with superior strength. At this moment, they can only watch the alliance falling apart, and their hearts are filled with a sense of powerlessness.

"Sect Master Gu, Madam Ye, please forgive me." Qingfeng and Zixia came to Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong and comforted them softly. However, facing their friends' concern, the two of them just shook their heads numbly, as if they had lost all ability to respond.

Ye Linglong's eyes were still filled with tears. She held Gu Jiuchen's hand tightly, her knuckles turning white, as if she wanted to vent all her pain in this tight hold. Gu Jiuchen's face was also horribly pale.

, he said nothing, just hugged Ye Linglong quietly, using his body temperature to give her some comfort.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault..." Ye Linglong's voice was hoarse and weak, repeating this sentence over and over again, like a curse, imprisoning herself in the abyss of self-blame.

"This is not your fault, Linglong, no one wants to see such a result." Gu Jiuchen hugged her tightly, his heart full of pity and distress. Why didn't he understand that the pain Ye Linglong was suffering at this moment was no less than him.

However, no matter how much they blame themselves and how painful they are, they cannot change the fact that what has happened. The Black Evil is dead, the Righteous Alliance has suffered heavy losses, and the use of "Linglong Zui" has also come to nothing. All of this is like a nightmare, surrounding them tightly and unable to escape.

At this moment, a burst of arrogant laughter suddenly came from the distance. The sound was full of ridicule and disdain, stinging everyone's eardrums like a sharp knife.

"Gu Jiuchen, Ye Linglong, just enjoy today's defeat! This is just the beginning, I will come back!"

It's that mysterious man! Gu Jiuchen suddenly raised his head, his eyes like lightning, directed towards the direction from which the sound came. However, there was nothing there except billowing smoke.

The mysterious man's words were like thunder, exploding in Gu Jiuchen's mind. He clenched his fists suddenly, his eyes burning with anger.

"Today's shame will be repaid tomorrow!" Gu Jiuchen said through gritted teeth, every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, full of unforgettable hatred.

The sun sets and night falls, shrouding this land full of sadness and despair.

The battlefield of hope. No one knows what is waiting for them in the future...

The mysterious man's voice was like the cry of a night owl, echoing over the silent battlefield, making it particularly harsh. Gu Jiuchen suddenly raised his head, his hawk-like gaze penetrated the night, but he only saw an afterimage disappearing into the distance.

"Today's shame will be repaid in the future!" Gu Jiuchen spoke every word, his voice low but containing the fury of thunder. His clenched fists clenched, and his knuckles turned white from the exertion. The death of Heisha, the disastrous defeat of the alliance, and the ridicule of the mysterious man, all of these turned into a raging fire, burning in his chest.

"Jiuchen, don't be impulsive!" Ye Linglong noticed the cold murderous intent emanating from his body, her heart tightened, and she quickly held his hand. She knew that Gu Jiuchen was blinded by hatred at this moment, and if she let him go, the consequences would be disastrous.

Gu Jiuchen looked down at his wife's worried eyes. The anger in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by a deep sense of powerlessness. Yes, so what if he is impulsive? The mysterious man comes and goes without a trace. They don't even know each other's identity, so how can they take revenge?

"Linglong, I'm fine." Gu Jiuchen held Ye Linglong's cold hand with his backhand and said in a tired but firm tone, "Don't worry, I won't do anything stupid."

The cold night wind blew Ye Linglong's hair and blew away Gu Jiuchen's sigh. He looked up at the demon-filled sky, and a bold idea suddenly flashed through his mind.

"Linglong, I know how to defeat them!" Gu Jiuchen's eyes flashed with undoubted determination.

"What can I do?" Ye Linglong's heart ignited

He asked eagerly with a glimmer of hope.

"Devil Cult Headquarters!" Gu Jiuchen's eyes were blazing, "Only there can I find the opportunity to use 'Linglong Drunk' again!"

When Ye Linglong heard this, her face instantly turned pale. "No! It's too dangerous! There are so many experts in the Demon Sect headquarters. If you go alone, it's like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth!"

"I know the danger, but I have to go!" Gu Jiuchen said firmly, without any intention of shrinking, "Linglong, believe me, I will come back safely!"

"I don't allow you to go!" Ye Linglong burst into tears, "Without you, what's the point of defeating the Demon Cult?"

Gu Jiuchen felt a pain in his heart, hugged Ye Linglong tightly in his arms, and comforted softly: "Linglong, be obedient, I promise you, I will come back safely. For you, for our future, I must go!"

However, Ye Linglong's heart was full of uneasiness. She clutched Gu Jiuchen's lapel tightly, as if grasping the last life-saving straw, and refused to let go no matter what.

The night was getting darker and the cold wind was howling. The two of them hugged each other on the top of the mountain, but they seemed to be separated by an insurmountable gap...

Gu Jiuchen gently pushed Ye Linglong away, pressed a kiss on her forehead, and whispered: "Wait for me." He turned and left, his figure resolute and without any hesitation. Ye Linglong felt a chill running straight from the soles of her feet to her heart. She wanted to catch up, but her legs seemed as heavy as lead.

"Jiuchen!" Ye Linglong's shout echoed in the empty valley, but could not keep the figure who was drifting away. She slumped to the ground helplessly, her eyes blurred by tears.

Returning to the camp, Ye Linglong found a letter lying on her pillow, with vigorous handwriting.

But with a hint of tenderness that is hard to conceal.

"Linglong, when you read this letter, I am already on my way to the headquarters of the Demon Cult. I know it is extremely dangerous, but I must do this. Linglongzui is my last hope and our only hope. .When I come back, we will rebuild our home together.”

A few short sentences, but they contain Gu Jiuchen's deep love for Ye Linglong and his firm belief in the future. Ye Linglong held the letter tightly to her chest, tears welling up in her eyes again.

Gu Jiuchen's departure caused an uproar in the Righteous Alliance.

"What? Sect Leader Gu went to the Demon Cult headquarters alone?" Elder Xuan Bing stood up in shock, and the teacup in his hand slipped to the ground and shattered.

"This is too risky! There are many experts in the Demon Sect headquarters. If he goes alone, it is like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth!" Elder Xuan Lei also looked worried.

"Linglong, please persuade Jiuchen to come back!" Zixia and Qingfeng anxiously surrounded Ye Linglong, but didn't know how to comfort her.

Ye Linglong shook her head, tears falling silently. "It was his decision and I couldn't stop it."

Gu Jiuchen's departure made the already low morale of the Righteous Alliance even worse. At the alliance meeting, everyone was talking a lot, and anxiety and uneasiness spread among the crowd.

"Now that the Demon Sect is arrogant and we have lost Linglong Zui, what should we do?"

"Second Master Gu's life or death is uncertain after his death. Do we have to sit back and wait for death?"

"Could it be...are we really going to give up resistance?"

Despair spread among the crowd like a plague, and the once brave and fearless righteous monks now became confused and frightened.

Ye Linglong listens

The comments around him were like a knife cutting through his heart. She knew that Gu Jiuchen had put all the burden on his shoulders, but she could only watch as he faced danger alone.

"Jiuchen, you must come back safely..." Ye Linglong prayed silently in her heart, tears blurred her eyes and blurred the road in front of her.
