"No!" Mo Zi let out an unacceptable cry of pain and flew up. He wanted to block that unstoppable sword. However, if he couldn't make it in time, then he would never make it in time.
The sword was aimed straight at Gu Hua Wei Wei's heart. If the sword went through his heart, even the deities of the Da Lou would not be able to save him.
Blood dripped from the corner of her pale lips, blossoming into beautiful flowers on the ground. She had never thought that Di Shang could be so heartless to kill her for the sake of Gu Qingcheng. It was a waste of one's reputation, disobeying the laws of nature, and even the loss of one's clarity of mind.
This kind of Di Shang only made her feel sad when he hated him.
However, these pathetic feelings, he might as well give them to himself.
Seeing the sword getting closer and closer, Gu Hua gently closed her eyes, hoping it wouldn't hurt too much.
A long sword came flying through the air, ruthlessly hitting Di Shang's long sword to the ground. The immense collision of spiritual energy caused the surrounding herbs to be cut apart by the spiritual energy. One could imagine just how powerful Di Shang's sword attack was!
Gu Hua slightly opened her eyes and heard the Jindan Stage Elder call out "Senior Brother." She absentmindedly thought, could it be that the Sect Leader has come?
"Greetings, Sect Leader." Mo Zi's eyes were initially red as he saluted to the Sect Leader. However, his eyes were focused on Gu Hua Wei, who was still bound in the air. The worry in his eyes was self-evident.
The Sect Leader wore a moon-white Sect Leader's robe. Golden threads covered his robe, and auspicious clouds covered his body. He had the demeanor of a transcendent being, appearing exceptionally bright and clear.
Gu Hua slightly heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. If the Jindan Stage Elder couldn't deal with DiShang, the Sect Leader must have a way to save her.
"Sound transmission and senior brother, please do not blame me." When the Sect Leader walked in front of him, the Jindan Stage Elder couldn't help but say, "The truth is, this matter requires Senior Brother to decide."
The Jindan Stage Elder knew that he was no match for Di Shang and had already sent a sound transmission to the Sect Leader. He was afraid that there might be an accident and the Sect Leader actually saved Gu Hua's life at the critical moment.
The Sect Leader calmly nodded at the Jindan Stage Elder. "This matter will be decided by Brother." Saying so, she waved her snow-white golden sleeves. Gu Hua Wei only felt that the force binding her immediately disappeared as she fell from the air.
Mo Ziyuan did not dare to hesitate any longer. He flew up and hugged the weakened Gu Hua Wei. His eyes looked coldly at Di Shang as he silently retreated to a side.
Gu Qingcheng's heart turned cold. This matter actually involved the Ascendant from the sect?
"Junior apprentice-brother …" The Sect Leader looked at the distant, vicious Di Shang, his brows knitted together. "This matter requires Junior Brother to give me an explanation …"
The Sect Leader's tone was very calm. Normally, he wouldn't care too much about this junior brother who had pure heart and low EQ. Now that this matter had occurred, he didn't want this matter to become even bigger.
"As you see." Di Shang's voice was cold, but his eyes were not looking at the Sect Leader. Instead, they were glued to Gu Qingcheng's delicate and pitiful face, unable to be pulled out.
The Sect Leader's gaze was faintly discernible as it landed on Gu Qingcheng. "Junior Brother, are you questioning the fact that this disciple, Gu Hua Wei, was able to return from the Lost Swamp?"
He did not believe that Gu Hua Wei could come back from such a dangerous place like the Lost Swamp, so he did everything possible to find trouble with her.
"Sect Master …" "Junior Sister Gu only came back from the Lost Swamp a year later, and she also has such talent. This makes people suspicious that Master is only thinking about the sect, how could she know …" She looked implicitly at Gu Hua Wei who was leaning on Mo Zi Yuan and trying to catch her breath. She covered the gloom in her eyes, "How could I have known that Junior Sister Gu would be so resistant? That's why you know about it." Although she didn't say much about Gu Hua Wei Wei Wei's bad, every word was a blow to the heart, and all of it was Gu Hua Wei's fault. If she was smart enough to be killed by us, you wouldn't have come to save her.
The Sect Leader didn't look at Gu Qingcheng, but turned his head to look at DiShang instead. He earnestly asked, "Junior also thinks so?"
The Sect Leader's gaze was deep, like a brother facing his own naughty younger brother, even though Di Shang was no longer a child.
Di Shang didn't dare to look into his eyes, obviously tacitly agreeing.
The Sect Leader could not tell what he was feeling, but he could feel his old heart trembling in anger. He was not angry at DiShang for chasing and killing Gu Hua Wei, but was angry at DiShang for feeding his dog with all the wisdom he had gained from cultivating for so many years.
"So Junior Apprentice Brother wants to use the soul-searching technique to search for a ten year old little girl?"
Gu Qingcheng continued to speak up for Di Shang, "Apart from this, Master has no other way. Sect Leader, please don't blame Master. For the good of the sect, Master would rather kill a hundred people than let one go." Gu Qingcheng had an expression on her face that said 'we're doing this for the sect, not for personal reasons'. You should come and deal with this slut with us as well, right?
"Did you think she said that?" The Sect Leader coldly gazed at Gu Qingcheng, who was still in the same state as before, as he asked DiShang.
The Sect Leader saw him as his younger brother, but he did not know that all these years, he had treated the Sect Leader as his older brother. However, in this world, there was always something more important than family love.
"Qingcheng is right." Even if he knew that he would disappoint the Sect Leader, he would not let his guard down.
The Sect Leader was so angry that he laughed. "What a great idea! For the sake of the sect, you would rather kill a hundred wrong people than let one go …"
Gu Qingcheng finally realized that things were not going as she had imagined. She was slightly panicked, was the Sect Leader really going to protect the weak spot of the flower?
With the Sect Leader's protection, Gu Hua Wei Wei would definitely be able to escape. It would be difficult for them to gather all their forces, so what should they do?
"Junior apprentice-brother, you are quite right." Sect Master finally calmed the anger in his heart and calmly said, "I agree to search."
"What?!" The Jindan Stage Elder was the first to disagree, "Senior Martial Brother, you can't!" If this was really allowed by Di Shang, who was a lunatic, to use the soul-searching technique to search Gu Hua Wei Wei, this little treasure, where would he find such a crazy disciple?
The Sect Leader shook his head, indicating that there was no need to worry. Under the joy that Gu Qingcheng could barely conceal, he continued, "But it doesn't have to be the soul-searching technique. Does Junior still remember the Heaven and Earth Mirror in Master's room?"
"Heaven and Earth Mirror?" The Jindan Stage Elder looked at the Sect Master, "Senior Apprentice Brother's meaning is …"
"Exactly." The Sect Leader smilingly looked at Di Shang, "I believe Junior Brother Wu Chen should also remember this very clearly."
