We're practicing all martial arts, so why did you switch to easy mode?

"It's a Gu master from the Nalan family!"

The silver-haired elder was startled when he saw the newcomers. They were all dressed in the same uniform of the Nalan family, each with a proud expression on their face and exuding a powerful aura. Even before they arrived, their presence was extremely imposing.

Why would the Nalan family come here?

The three elders of the Gu family exchanged glances, not daring to make any rash moves, and waited to see what would happen.

As the light faded, the members of the Nalan family were revealed, with a middle-aged woman at the head.

The middle-aged woman's arrogant gaze swept over Wen Qingya and the others, then landed on Black Rock Mountain. She spoke calmly, "The Nalan family is handling matters. All irrelevant personnel must leave immediately. I'll give you three breaths to leave this place, or else—die!"

The moment the word "death" was uttered, a chilling atmosphere filled the air.

The three elders of the Gu family exchanged a glance. Then, the silver-haired elder stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said with a slight respect, "Senior Nalan, I am Gu Feng of the Gu family. This woman killed members of my Gu family. I hope Senior Nalan will give me some time. In less than three breaths, I will definitely deal with this woman."

Despite being older than the middle-aged woman, he adopted a respectful demeanor. In the face of absolute power, age is not an issue at all.

However, he did not grovel too much. Although the Nalan family was powerful, the Gu family was not to be trifled with either.

He thought that mentioning the Gu family's name would earn him some face from the middle-aged woman, but to the three of them's surprise, the woman only coldly replied, "I want you to get out!"

"you……"

"Three breaths!"

The middle-aged woman ignored the expressions of the three elderly men with silver hair and spoke again, counting down the time.

"Two breaths."

"..."

"Let's go first!"

The silver-haired old man suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice.

Although he was furious, he also knew that making enemies of the Nalan family was a very unwise choice.

The only option is to endure it.

Anyway, Wen Qingya couldn't stay here. As long as they followed Wen Qingya, the other party still wouldn't be able to escape.

Wen Qingya naturally knew what the three were thinking. She gritted her teeth, unsure of what to do.

If they don't leave, they can still rely on Su Chen.

Whether Su Chen can actually help her is another matter, let alone stop the Nalan family.

But if she doesn't leave, the Nalan family will take care of her without the Gu family having to lift a finger.

Leaving is not an option, nor is staying; Wen Qingya is caught in a dilemma.

Suddenly, the Heaven-Slaying Blade spoke: "Girl, there's no need to leave. Just stand there, no one can touch you!"

After the Heaven-Slaying Blade devoured the Greedy Wolf, it arrived in front of Wen Qingya.

His voice wasn't loud, but it made no attempt to hide it, reaching everyone's ears.

Upon seeing this, the three silver-haired elders, who had originally intended to leave, smiled sinisterly and stopped what they were doing, staring at Wen Qingya with their lifeless eyes.

"Knife Gu?"

The sound of the Heaven-Slaying Blade caught the middle-aged woman's attention. She frowned and looked at the other person, a hint of doubt flashing in her clear eyes.

She couldn't even see through the Heaven-Severing Blade.

"Heh, it seems you've got some nerve. Not one of you takes my words seriously. In that case, you're not leaving. Leave your lives behind and be buried here forever!" the middle-aged woman sneered, and the Nalan family members glared at the three of them menacingly.

"Senior Nalan has misunderstood. We'll leave immediately!"

Seeing that the middle-aged woman seemed to be serious, the silver-haired old man quickly spoke up, retreating as he spoke.

"Want to leave? Did you even ask for my opinion?"

A thunderous voice rang out; it wasn't the middle-aged woman who spoke, but the one who spoke with the Heaven-Slaying Blade.

He slashed out with his sword, attempting to force the three to use the Greedy Wolf Moon Devouring Gu again, so that he could absorb the power of the moonlight to heal his injuries.

The blade flashed like an electric arc, leaving a brilliant trail in mid-air, and was about to strike the silver-haired old man in an instant.

Suddenly, a twisting force appeared out of thin air, blocking the attack of the Heaven-Severing Blade.

The person who made the move was a middle-aged woman. She wasn't helping the three elders of the Gu family, but rather she wouldn't allow anyone to defy her to her face.

She was very dissatisfied with the Heaven-Slaying Blade's attack.

The middle-aged woman looked at the Broken Sky Blade and coldly ordered, "Kill all of them!"

"Yes!"

The disciples of the Gu family behind him responded and attacked.

"not good!"

Upon seeing this, the three silver-haired elders were momentarily flustered. They disregarded Duan Tian Dao and Wen Qing Ya, and transformed into a ray of light, disappearing into the horizon.

They moved so quickly that, apart from the middle-aged woman, no one else noticed, and by the time they tried to track them down, it was too late.

After the three silver-haired elders escaped, the disciples of the Nalan family vented their anger on Wen Qingya.

Although these Gu Masters are not as powerful as Wen Qingya, they are of one mind and their killing moves are so powerful that they are no less powerful than the Heavenly Crocodile Ancient Halberd Gu.

However, Wen Qingya was not flustered at this moment, as Duan Tiandao's words had given her enough confidence.

Sure enough, before they could make a move against her, the Heaven-Slaying Blade took the initiative to attack.

The blade flashed, but before its edge was fully extended, a fierce wind arose all around. The instant the blade was drawn, wind and thunder followed, and a blinding blade of light swept forward, whistling as it struck the Nalan family.

"Five thunder strikes!"

Unlike the Five Thunderbolts used by the old woman, this time the lightning had five colors.

Each color carried an aura of destruction, sweeping forward like an overwhelming tide.

boom!
Under the devastating impact of the five thunderbolts, even the blade's light was somewhat unable to withstand the force, and its brilliance dimmed slightly upon impact.

But it only dimmed for a moment. Soon the blade light broke through the Five Thunder Blockade and struck the Nalan family's disciples with unstoppable force.

"what?!"

The middle-aged woman's expression hardened as she watched the Nalan family disciple crumble in the blink of an eye.

Ignoring her surprise, he immediately took action.

However, the speed of the blade's edge was too fast, and the energy it contained exceeded everyone's expectations.

After breaking the Five Thunderbolts technique, its power actually increased instead of decreasing, becoming even more ferocious and violent.

The closer one gets to the Nalan family disciples, the stronger the power of their moves becomes. In the end, the blade light, which originally had the power of a seventh-level Gu Master, actually became an eighth-level Gu Master. However, this was not the end. The middle-aged woman never expected that the power displayed by the seemingly ordinary Heaven-Severing Blade would be comparable to that of a ninth-level Gu Master, so powerful that it was despair-inducing.

If she had known it would end like this, she would never have let them take action.

Even she might not be a match for the Heaven-Slaying Blade, let alone these younger generation. Asking them to take action would be tantamount to suicide.

However, it was too late to realize this. After the Heaven-Severing Blade attacked, the Nalan family members were wiped out without even a scream, turning into dust that flew into the sky.

"too weak!"

Duan Tian Dao shook his head; this extremely powerful move was something he learned from Su Chen.

First show weakness, then suddenly unleash a powerful attack. As Su Chen said, this move will surely achieve remarkable results.

That's why he decided on a whim to try it out.

It had some effect, but the problem was that these people were too weak to make him use this move.

Even using ordinary techniques, the same effect can be achieved.

It really feels like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

The Heaven-Slaying Blade didn't care, absorbing all the Yuan Power of these people, while leaving the Gu worms behind for Su Chen to use later. "One left!"

The battle ended quickly, but not completely; the middle-aged woman remained standing alone, her face ashen.

She quickly noticed the malicious gaze of Duan Tiandao, her expression changed several times, and then she left without looking back.

"Ran?"

Duan Tiandao was taken aback by the middle-aged woman's escape. Wasn't it incredibly impolite of her to run away without saying a word?

He was about to intercept the other party, but the other party was very fast, not weaker than Ayana.

Furthermore, his decisive action made Duan Tiandao realize that he might not be able to catch up with his opponent in a short period of time.

After thinking about it, he finally decided to give up and not pursue it.

Just then, a five-colored beam of light shot out from Black Rock Mountain. The light pierced the sky and, as if equipped with radar, locked onto the middle-aged woman's figure. The middle-aged woman had no idea of ​​the five-colored light's appearance. The five-colored light seemed to be lurking in the void, making it difficult to detect.

"What's this?!"

For some inexplicable reason, the middle-aged woman felt a sudden pang of fear. She turned around and saw the five-colored light, but it was too late. The light suddenly accelerated and struck the middle-aged woman, piercing through her body.

"what!"

The middle-aged woman immediately let out a scream, which pierced through the clouds and soared into the sky.

Stopped abruptly.

In no time, the middle-aged woman vanished into nothingness amidst the five-colored light, and eventually dissipated.

"hiss!"

The three silver-haired old men who had returned could not believe what they had seen with their own eyes, and they couldn't help but gasp.

They were horrified; in less than a quarter of an hour, everyone in the Nalan family had died a gruesome death.

The shock of this scene made all three of them's hearts pound wildly.

They had originally planned to attack Wen Qingya and Su Chen, but now it seems that they were spared thanks to the domineering middle-aged woman.

The three of them frowned as they thought about how powerful Su Chen and the Broken Sky Blade were.

"Brother, what should we do now?"

The Heaven-Slaying Blade was already powerful enough, but then Su Chen appeared, which was beyond their capabilities.

Making a move at this moment would undoubtedly be suicidal.

But revenge must be taken!

For a moment, the three of them were caught in a dilemma.

After a moment, the silver-haired man spoke: "Leave this place and spread the news that the Nalan family has been wiped out in their revenge. Then the Nalan family will take care of it for us."

"That's quite a clever plan!"

Suddenly, a voice that seemed to appear out of nowhere rang out, startling the three of them.

"Who?"

The sound seemed to be everywhere, making it impossible to pinpoint its exact location.

The three looked around and finally saw the person who spoke from above.

"It's you!"

The moment they saw Su Chen, the three recognized his identity and identified the Life and Death Tracking Gu on his body.

"Run!"

The silver-haired old man reacted extremely quickly, letting out a low roar before turning into a wisp of green smoke and disappearing.

The other two elderly men remained calm in the face of danger, and even in such a moment, they knew to scatter and escape.

Unfortunately, they encountered Su Chen. Su Chen flicked his finger, sending out three five-colored rays of light that chased after the three old men.

This is his method of activating the Yang Five Elements Gu worms, which has immense power for Gu masters.

"Not to mention that the Yang Five Elements Gu worms are all Rank 9 Gu worms, the principle of mutual generation and restraint among the five types of Gu worms alone can suppress most Gu worms below Rank 9!" Master Heiyan said calmly, his tone carrying a hint of pride.

But his disappointment quickly turned to resentment. This was his proudest achievement, yet it benefited Su Chen. One can imagine his frustration.

In his vision, after his resurrection, he would plant the Yang Five Elements Gu worms in his five internal organs, and his strength would leap to the ninth level. Moreover, he would be one of the best among the ninth-level Gu masters. Although the Yang Five Elements Gu worms were only low-level ninth-level Gu worms, they could exert miraculous effects under the principle of mutual generation and restraint of the five elements.

By suppressing the Gu worms of others and enhancing one's own power, one can achieve a power comparable to a perfected Nine-Turn Gu Master.

"what!"

A scream rang out as an elder from the Gu family was killed.

The five-colored light ignored the effects of the Gu worms and swept through the enemy like a whirlwind, killing one person and then another old man.

In the blink of an eye, only the silver-haired old man remained.

He heard screams, which intensified his fear. Without daring to turn his head, he frantically activated the power of the Gu worms.

But at that moment, he became terrified.

"The Gu worms... have lost their effectiveness!"

He couldn't believe that the Gu worms would fail at such a crucial moment.

This has never happened before.

He was extremely anxious, but no matter how he tried to activate it, he could not draw upon the power of the Gu worms.

Without the help of the Gu worms, he was unable to mobilize the Yuan energy within his body. Without the support of Yuan energy, the silver-haired old man's body plummeted like a stone.

This made him even more panicked.

Because he was a thousand feet above the ground at that moment, if he were to fall, even though his body had been strengthened by the Gu worms, he would surely die.

Unfortunately, his idea was unnecessary.

The light shot towards him faster than he was falling, and before he could even land, it pierced through his body.

In an instant, the silver-haired old man's Yuan energy was completely absorbed, and all the Gu worms were enveloped in light and detached from his body.

It was at that very moment that the silver-haired old man died and his life ended.

After receiving the silver-haired old man's Yuan Power and Gu worms, Su Chen split them in two. He gave the Yuan Power to the Heaven-Severing Blade, and directly refined the Gu worms.

In addition, he was given hundreds of thousands of spirit stones.

These were all obtained from the treasure trove left to him by Black Rock Master. After absorbing most of it, he basically recovered from his injuries.

Enjoying the Yuan Stones, Su Chen cultivated another divine ability to its limit.

"Su Chen, my injuries have almost healed."

With the help of Su Chen's Yuan Stones and Yuan Power, Duan Tian Dao's injuries were also healed.

Su Chen nodded: "Mine has almost recovered too."

"Have you found a way back?" Duan Tian Dao asked.

Su Chen didn't answer, but looked at Wen Qingya: "Aren't you planning to leave?"

“I…you have a life-and-death tracking Gu on your body from the Gu family and the Nalan family. They will track you based on the scent of the Gu worms, and they will find you no matter where you run.” Wen Qingya bit her lip lightly and weakly changed the subject.

The other life-and-death tracking Gu on Su Chen's body was planted by the middle-aged woman before she died.

"Life and Death Tracking Gu?" Su Chen pursed his lips. "You mean these two types of Gu worms?"

Before Wen Qingya could answer, Su Chen took out the Gu worms in front of her, and then gently squeezed them, killing them as if they were two ants.

Wen Qingya: "..." (End of this chapter)
