Battle Through the Heavens: I Am the Righteous Path

"Miss Xun'er?"

"Xun'er!"

Xun'er's sudden appearance startled both Gu Lie and Gu Qinghan, and then Gu Lie immediately realized Xun'er's strength at this time.

The early stage of three-star fighting saint!

Gu Lie was really shocked at this moment. You know, when Xun'er just returned to the tribe, she was only in the early stage of the two-star Douluo, but in just a few months, Xun'er had reached another level.

All I can say is that it is worthy of being the divine bloodline that their ancient clan has placed high hopes on, and it has indeed lived up to their expectations.

"Miss Xun'er, congratulations on your breakthrough." Gu Lie first sincerely congratulated Xun'er, then raised a hand, his face solemn, "But please don't interfere with today's matter. This matter has nothing to do with you."

Gu Lie's plain words immediately made Xun'er's eyes reveal anger.

A month ago, Xun'er finally met Xiao Yan who had just come out of the Heavenly Tomb, but because of her own incompetence, she fainted before she could say a few words. After waking up, she found that the clan leader and Xiao Yan were gone.

However, Xun'er was not too worried. She guessed that Xiao Yan and Gu Yuan must have talked about something, and the two of them went to do the work together. The only thing that made her unhappy was that she couldn't say a few more words to Xiao Yan.

After Xiao Yan was gone, Xun'er continued to lock herself up and concentrate on her cultivation until she came out again just now. After hearing from the maid what happened in just one day, she was completely stunned.

Sister Qinghan has been thrown into prison and will be executed on a later date?

What a joke! Sister Qinghan is the commander-in-chief of the Black Annihilation Army. What crime could she have committed to deserve execution? Even if we take a step back and talk about the other elders, Gulin, as a father, would not care when he heard that his daughter would be executed on a certain day?
Before Xun'er could go to the elders to ask for an explanation, she found that the entire main city of the ancient clan was in chaos. The Black Annihilation Army was already searching for Gu Qinghan who had escaped from prison. Xun'er did not have time to think too much, and hurriedly searched the city for Gu Qinghan's whereabouts, and finally appeared here.

"How can Sister Qinghan's affairs have nothing to do with me?!" Xun'er protected Gu Qinghan, staring at Gu Lie, "With me here, no one can touch Sister Qinghan today!"

"No, Miss Xun'er, there are some things you don't understand."

Seeing Xun'er's resolute attitude in protecting Gu Qinghan, Gu Lie couldn't help but feel a headache, but he couldn't explain to Xun'er at the moment, so he could only speak in a tough tone.

"In short, Gu Qinghan, don't even think about leaving today. After we calm down the commotion tonight, the elders and I will explain to you." As he spoke, Gu Lie's momentum rose, and his deep tone made Xun'er feel pressured. "Miss Xun'er, I can't guarantee that I won't hurt you at all. Please leave first."

"impossible!"

Xun'er rejected it without thinking, and her determined eyes told Gu Lie an extremely clear answer.

Unless she loses consciousness today, don't even think about touching Gu Qinghan!
After receiving this look, Gu Lie cursed the four elders in his heart.

Damn it. Every time you old guys come up with bad ideas, and when things go wrong I have to clean up the mess. Is this ever going to end? I, the Black Annihilation King, am here to take the blame for you, right? !
However, even though he cursed in his heart, Gu Lie would not neglect his duties. Seeing Xun'er so determined, his pressure became even stronger.

boom! ! !
Gu Lie's fighting spirit soared into the sky, shaking everyone present, including Xun'er who had just achieved a breakthrough. Although her eyes were still determined, her body was already showing signs of weakness.

Xun'er's talent is indeed rare in the ancient clan in a thousand years. She is less than 30 years old and has already stepped into the top realm in this world. She is even expected to reach the same level of strength as Gu Yuan within a hundred years. This is really admirable.

However, talent is a matter of the future. Compared to Gu Lie, who is in the early stage of eight-star Douluo, Xun'er is just an early stage of three-star Douluo.

"Miss Xun'er, I am sorry for the offense."

Gu Lie opened his mouth slowly and stretched out his hand to Xun'er, making Xun'er instantly feel as if a terrifying aura as if the sky was falling and the earth was collapsing was pressing down on her, and she was completely unable to resist.

It was obvious that Gu Lie had tried his best to hold back in order to avoid hurting Xun'er as much as possible, but even so, Xun'er still felt that there was no possibility of resistance.

But surrendering without a fight is definitely not Xun'er's style!
"Open the Mountain Seal!"

"Turn the sea seal!"

"Earth-covering seal!"

"The Annihilation Seal!"

"Ancient Emperor Seal!"

Xun'er shouted angrily, and golden flames rose from behind her. She quickly formed seals with her hands, condensing five energy marks that were enough to annihilate everything and appeared behind her. Not only Gu Qinghan, but even Gu Lie's eyes changed slightly when they saw this scene.

Could it be that.
Just as the two were guessing, Xun'er's actions the next moment proved his guess was correct.

"Emperor Seal Technique: Five Seals Combined into One!"

Under Gu Lie's incredulous gaze, the five marks that appeared behind him gradually merged into one, and at the moment of synthesis, they burst out with tremendous power that was dozens of times stronger than before!

(I actually did it!)
Gu Lie was greatly shocked. The Emperor Seal Art was already considered a common fighting skill among the ancient clans. However, so far, the number of people who could achieve the combination of all five seals could be counted on one hand.

And Xun Er is so young, yet she has already done it? !
"Miss Xun'er, you really surprised me. If it weren't for this situation, I would have applauded you." Gu Lie came back to his senses, and the shock in his eyes slowly faded away. "But even so, you still want to save people from my hands..."

“Somewhat unqualified.”

Gu Lie's previously overwhelming aura erupted once again. When Xun'er waved the mark burning with golden flames towards him, Gu Lie didn't even move his hands. He just glared with his eyes, and the tangible terrifying energy collided with the mark with a loud bang.

Bang! ! !
The vibration caused by the energy collision made the entire main city tremble again and again, causing the civilians who were already disturbed by the full deployment of the Black Annihilation Army to tremble in their hearts, and everyone huddled in their homes in shock.

What happened out there?!

This shock made Gu Qinghan and others extremely frightened. They were frightened that Yu Xun'er could actually confront Gu Lie head-on.

However, Xun'er herself did not show any joy on her face, but rather looked particularly ugly.

Because she saw clearly that at the same time as the energy exploded, the aura released by Gu Lie had almost no hindrance, and it easily swallowed up the mark that she had released with all her strength, without any ability to resist, and calmed the vibration quite casually.

During this whole process, Guile didn't even move a finger!
"how come."

Xun'er's eyes revealed despair, she knew that with her current strength she could not compete with Gu Lie, but she never expected that she couldn't even make him move a finger!
This is the Eight-Star Fighting Saint!

Gu Lie also saw the despair in Xun'er's eyes and slowly spoke to comfort her.

"It's quite powerful. Miss Xun'er, there's no need to feel unwilling." Gu Lie frowned slightly and said slowly, "It's just that the gap between you and me is too big, that's all."

As he spoke, the aura surrounding Guilie was revealed once again, and finally an ultimatum was issued.

"Well, since you have personally experienced the difference in strength between us, please retreat. You yourself understand the huge gap between us. You cannot stop me even if you risk your life."

Hearing Gu Lie's words, Xun'er's pupils suddenly shrank. She wanted to speak, but she couldn't say anything.

The attack just now had already proved that what Guilie said was absolutely correct, and no matter what he said, it would be meaningless.

But even so, Xun'er still showed no signs of leaving. Even though her body was trembling more obviously, she had no intention of leaving Gu Qinghan's presence.

This scene made Gu Lie sigh.

"You are really stubborn. Well, when the chief comes back, I will personally go to him to accept the punishment." Gu Lie paused, his eyes revealing ruthlessness. "As for you, take a nap for now."

After that, Gu Lie's invisible fighting spirit rushed directly towards Xun'er. Even Xun'er herself was sure that once this fighting spirit touched her, she would instantly faint. Xun'er instinctively raised her hand to resist, but when she felt that the fighting spirit was getting closer and closer, the despair in her heart became more and more intense.

Resist? What can we do?
Xun'er had never been so pessimistic. She watched helplessly as the fighting spirit approached her and she was about to faint, which made Xun'er close her eyes instinctively.

However, after a few seconds, Xun'er unexpectedly discovered that she was still awake.

Why is this?

Xun'er opened her eyes in confusion, only to see a hunched figure appear in front of her. Although he looked frail, Xun'er, who was protected behind him, felt extremely relieved.

This is an old woman, an ordinary-looking old woman.

And Xun'er also felt it clearly. In front of the hunched figure of the old woman, the fighting spirit that Gu Lie was attacking was steadily stopped. The expression of Gu Lie in front of him also changed drastically in an instant, which made Xun'er dazed.

Who is this old woman?
When Gu Qinghan saw the person who suddenly stood in front of them, he was stunned at first, and then a look of joy appeared on his face.

"grandmother!"

Gu Qinghan's exclamation stunned everyone, even Xun'er didn't react.

Grandma? Sister Qinghan has a grandma???
The old woman turned around and looked at Gu Qinghan kindly, then turned her gaze to Xun'er, raised her hand and patted his head gently.

"Little girl, you are much more courageous than your cowardly father."

This sentence made Xun'er even more confused.

Who on earth is this old woman who dares to mock his father Gu Yuan in front of him and so many people? !
Just as Xun'er looked confused, the old woman turned to look at Gu Lie and snorted with disdain.

"You kid, you actually have the nerve to show off in front of the younger generation. You are really going backwards as you grow older."

The old woman lightly bent her fingers and easily dispersed Gu Lie's fighting spirit, who had been forcibly stopped by her, making Gu Lie's expression extremely ugly.

Then the old woman shook her clothes lightly, took a small step forward, and said something slowly that made Gu Lie's face look even uglier.

"Since you like to show off, I'll show off to the old woman too. It shows that you have the ability."

After hearing this, Gu Lie almost fell to his knees.

I'm showing off to you? How dare I?
Too many unexpected things happened today, causing Gu Lie to forget the old woman's existence for a moment. You know, the old woman values ​​Gu Qinghan very much!

After a long time, in front of everyone, Gu Lie spoke carefully to the old woman in the humble tone that they had heard for the first time.

"That. Senior."

senior?

Being called senior by Gu Lie?

I'll do it! This is a treatment that even the elders and clan leaders don't have!

Who is this old woman? !
Everyone was confused by Gulie's simple address.

But Gu Lie didn't have time to care about other people's reactions. His expression was very conflicted and he hesitated for a long time before he spoke.

"Senior, this matter has nothing to do with you, please don't interfere."

"not my business?"

The old woman glared at him suddenly, and Gulie's shoulders trembled violently in fear.

"When you announced to the whole clan that the poor girl would be executed on a chosen day, why didn't you think about whether it had anything to do with me, an old woman?"

"That, that."

Gu Lie was sweating profusely and pouted for a long time, not knowing how to explain, which made the old woman snort in disdain again, and then turned to look at Gu Qinghan.

"Girl, take your brothers and sisters and go. With grandma here, this brat won't dare to stop you."

This sentence made the already confused crowd even more confused.

Little brat? Who is the little brat? Guile? The Dark Lord Guile is the little brat???

As everyone became stupid, the majestic image that Gulie had always presented to them began to collapse quietly in their hearts.

Gu Qinghan was the first to react, and then worry appeared in his eyes.

"But grandma, the elders..."

"Don't worry, those brats won't dare to say a word to me, an old woman. Just go with peace of mind."

The elder has become a kid too???
Everyone was struck by lightning, wasn't it? Was this old man speaking the same language as them? Why couldn't they understand???
"Grandma, I understand. Qinghan will leave now." Gu Qinghan quickly put aside his hesitation and nodded solemnly, "Take care."

Then Gu Qinghan looked at Xun'er.

"Xun'er, thank you. We'll leave first."

Before Gu Qinghan could say anything else, he called on Gu Yao and others to quickly open the gate to the ancient world. Under Gu Qinghan's urging, the others also came to their senses. Without having time to think about the old woman's identity, they followed Gu Qinghan through the gate to the ancient world and successfully left the ancient clan.

And Gu Lie did not stop it the whole time, or rather, he did not dare to stop it.

After Gu Qinghan and the others left, the old woman was too lazy to say anything more to Gu Lie. She turned around and looked at Xun'er kindly.

"Xun'er girl, go back."

"oh oh!"

Xun'er suddenly came to her senses and nodded blankly. Then, seeing the old woman raising her arm, she stepped forward and supported the old woman respectfully, and slowly left. Gu Lie couldn't help but speak.

"Senior! The elders are over there."

"If they have any problems, let them come to me."

These words suffocated Gu Lie to death, and he was unable to say another word. He watched the old woman slowly leave with the support of Xun'er.

Before leaving, Xun'er took one last look at the gate of the ancient world and prayed quietly in her heart.

(Brother Xiao Yan, I'll leave Sister Qinghan in your care) (End of this chapter)
