"Gu Xiu, you've destroyed my destiny and cut off my future. I never want to see you again in my entire life!"

"I won't kill you today because of the friendship we shared five hundred years ago."

"But from now on."

"I will hate you forever. I will curse you for eternity, forever falling into reincarnation, and never having a burial place!!!"

Late at night, in a cave in the forest.

Gu Xiu suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, wiped his forehead, and saw that it was wet with cold sweat.

"Did you dream about the people from Qingxuan Holy Land again?" Gu Xiu sighed, feeling a little uneasy. He could only whisper:

"I have never been ashamed of anyone in my life."

"Ashamed."

"Only me!"

After saying this, the fluctuations in my heart finally began to disappear.

but.

Although his mood had calmed down, Gu Xiu couldn't help but think of Qin Moyan, who loved to recite poems and compose essays with him five hundred years ago.

Then, he thought of Qin Moran's attitude towards him over the past three years.

Shaking his head, Gu Xiu said to himself:

"Although I ruined your opportunity, it was only to save you."

"Our fate in this life has come to an end."

"Since then."

"No one owes anyone anything!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Gu Xiu's mood became completely calm, without any fluctuations, and he even thought of Qin Mo Ran again.

There won't be any distracting thoughts anymore.

At this moment, footsteps were heard. After a moment, Ye Hongling came back with a red-tasseled spear in hand, and said excitedly:

"We have now completely shaken off the enemy!"

Distance from the three kills on the moonlit night.

Five days have passed now.

During these five days, Gu Xiu and Ye Hongling had been fleeing and hiding in the forest, and encountered the enemy several times along the way.

But every time I got through it safely.

As for the poison in Ye Hongling's body, it was completely eliminated on the third day of their escape. The enemy may have noticed it, so the pursuit was significantly reduced in the next two days.

to today.

He had never even seen an enemy before.

Ye Hongling had just gone out to check the situation and had confirmed that no one was following her.

this means.

They successfully broke through and got rid of the people behind them!

This made Ye Hongling breathe a sigh of relief and feel extremely happy, but she just glanced at Gu Xiu.

have to.

As expected, this person was still the same as before, with a calm face, as if nothing could affect his mood.

To be honest, Ye Hongling is a bit used to it.

Seeing that Gu Xiu's expression was still indifferent, she was not discouraged. Instead, she took out a few cleaned rabbits:

"My benefactor, I caught a few wild rabbits. Let's treat them today and let you taste my cooking skills."

They had been on the run for five days, sleeping in the open air the whole time.

Don't say you've eaten well.

It’s good enough to be full.

Gu Xiu did not refuse, but continued to use the affinity of the Dao rhyme of heaven and earth to sense the surrounding situation.

In preparation for danger.

Ye Hongling didn't know this. She placed a few rabbits on the fire and took out the seasonings:

"Benefactor, do you have any special taste requirements?"

"I'm not picky about food, anything is fine with me." Gu Xiu replied.

"Yeah." Ye Hongling nodded, and after waiting for a moment, she finally couldn't help but ask, "Benefactor, where are you going this time?"

"Not going anywhere, just wandering around."

This answer made Ye Hongling roll her eyes. In these five days, she still knew nothing about Gu Xiu.

at this point.

You can tell from the fact that she always calls Gu Xiuenren.

I don’t even know his name. As for where he came from, where he is going, what level of cultivation he is at, or which sect or school his master belongs to, no one knows.

She did ask about his name, but Gu Xiu only gave one answer at that time.

"You and I are just a transaction, there is nothing worth remembering."

These words made Ye Hongling give up the idea of ​​continuing to inquire.

Soon, the rabbits were cooked. Halfway through, Ye Hongling suddenly asked, "My benefactor, it seems you've never asked who is chasing me?"

"I'm not interested." Gu Xiu shook his head.

"why?"

But Gu Xiu replied: "As a casual cultivator, you must have the awareness of a casual cultivator. Being too curious is not a good thing."

"Do you have any friends?"

"Used to have."

"before?"

Gu Xiu didn't answer.

Ye Hongling was extremely curious. The more she interacted with Gu Xiu these days, the less she understood him, and the more curious she became about him.

The white-haired cultivator in front of me seemed to be full of countless secrets.

But she knew the rules.

No further questions were asked.

But Gu Xiu suddenly raised his eyebrows: "Someone is coming."

Ok?

Ye Hongling's expression suddenly tensed, but after a moment, after hearing a series of slightly dull footsteps, Ye Hongling's expression relaxed again:

"It's the sound of barefoot black horse hooves. It must be my fellow disciple!"

really.

Not long after, the three men and three riders arrived near the cave where Ye Hongling had left special marks.

Guide them here.

Seeing that they were indeed one of their own, Ye Hongling stepped out first. When the three men saw Ye Hongling, they immediately came over:

"Hong Ling, are you okay?"

"Is Junior Sister Ye injured?"

"The message said that the Red Water Clan was after you. Why would they suddenly attack you?"

These three people are all very strong.

One of the middle-aged men in particular exuded an unparalleled powerful aura.

It’s a golden elixir!

The other two people next to them were equally strong, and were at the same Foundation Establishment stage as Ye Hongling.

While the three of them were reminiscing about the past with Ye Hongling.

Gu Xiu's attention was not on the three people, but instead he looked at the war horses under the three people.

The warhorse was pitch black with red flames on its feet, and it left a special mark wherever it passed.

This is a monster unique to Tiance Mansion. Although the cultivators who have established their foundation can already fly with flying tools, the Jindan cultivators can even fly through the air.

However, the mounts of Tian Ce Mansion are not slow at all, and they are also assisted by martial arts when fighting against the enemy.

It's very mysterious.

"Uncle, two senior brothers, I'll tell you everything about the Chishui Sect when I get back." Ye Hongling said a few words, then thought of Gu Xiu beside her:

"This person is the one who saved me this time. If it weren't for him, I would have died in the Tianqi Mountains."

For an instant.

The three of them also noticed Gu Xiu.

Although they were a little curious about how a young cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining could rescue Ye Hongling, they were still polite and nodded to Gu Xiu.

One of the handsome young cavalrymen frowned when he saw Ye Hongling and Gu Xiu standing so close to each other. However, he didn't say much. Instead, he approached Ye Hongling with a concerned look on his face.

"Junior sister, are you injured?"

"Thank you, Senior Brother Zhao, for your concern. Hong Ling has recovered a lot." Ye Hong Ling subconsciously moved away a little, not giving the other party a chance to get close to her.

This subconscious action made Senior Brother Zhao frown even more.

Especially when he saw Ye Hongling moving away from him but approaching Gu Xiu, he couldn't help but glance at Gu Xiu.

"The Chishui Sect attacked our Tiance Mansion people. This matter is of great importance. We should go back and report this as soon as possible."

The Jindan cultivator at the side spoke.

The three of them mounted their horses immediately.

Senior Brother Zhao was the first to invite Ye Hongling: "Junior Sister, ride with me."

"Thank you for your kindness, senior brother. Honglian will just follow you." Ye Hongling refused again.

Senior Brother Zhao's expression froze for a moment, but someone next to him tried to smooth things over: "Haha, Hong Ling is a girl after all. How about this, Hong Ling, you ride mine, and Senior Brother Zhao and I will ride together."

talking.

He voluntarily gave up his barefoot black horse.

This time, Ye Hongling did not refuse. However, after she got on the horse, she immediately extended an invitation to Gu Xiu:

"My benefactor, get on the horse and I will take you away from here."

These words startled the other three, especially Senior Brother Zhao, whose eyes instantly turned to Gu Xiu.

But what the three of them didn't expect was...

Gu Xiu didn't even get on the horse. Instead, he frowned and said:

"Don't ride."

Ok?

The four of them were stunned.

Ye Hongling smiled and explained, "My benefactor, this is the barefoot black horse that is unique to my Tiance Mansion. It is as fast as the magic weapon that can fly in the air, and it saves more spiritual energy."

"Since the people who were chasing us before knew your identity and couldn't find us for such a long time, they would definitely think of coming to your aid, and they would also think of you having the barefoot black horse." Gu Xiu shook his head and said.

Ye Hongling was surprised: "Benefactor, you mean that the people chasing us haven't given up yet?"

"If they are willing to take the risk to hunt you down, it must be because they have to kill you. In that case, do you think they will give up?" Gu Xiu asked back.

This……

Ye Hongling frowned immediately.

But Gu Xiu spoke again: "If I were them, I would definitely set an ambush for your barefoot black horse."

This shocked Ye Hongling:

"Set an ambush?"

However, Senior Brother Zhao at the side couldn't help but sneer: "Do you think that we are all low-level Qi-refining cultivators?"

The other two couldn't help laughing as well.

They felt that Gu Xiu might not even know what their cultivation level was, with a Jindan cultivator leading three foundation-building cultivators.

This force.

This is not something that ordinary people dare to calculate.

Ye Hongling was also a little curious and looked at Gu Xiu, wanting to see what Gu Xiu thought.

but……

"In that case, let's say goodbye here." Unexpectedly, Gu Xiu actually asked to say goodbye directly.

He made no excuses.

There was no argument, but the distinctions were made directly.

"benefactor……"

Ye Hongling was a little surprised, but just as she opened her mouth, she heard Gu Xiu say:

"I promised to help you once. Now that you've safely reunited with your fellow disciples, I've fulfilled my promise. Now, let's say goodbye."

After saying that, Gu Xiu turned around and left.

The steps are hurried.

Seeing his back, Ye Hongling wanted to stop him, but Senior Brother Zhao beside her was already urging her:

"Junior sister, the matter of Chishuimen is of great importance, let's leave quickly!"

"Yes, Junior Sister, let's hurry up."

"Although this person's cultivation is not high, he is extremely vigilant. He would not feel comfortable following us."

The other two also spoke one after another.

After hearing this, Ye Hongling hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and shouted towards Gu Xiu's back:

"Hong Ling is extremely grateful for your help these past few days. If you need any help in the future, please come to Tian Ce Mansion to find Hong Ling!"

"Hong Ling, I will help you with all my strength!"

After saying this, the three of them drove their barefoot black horses and left quickly with the sound of horse hooves.

And Gu Xiu on the other side.

After making sure that the three people had gone far away, he suddenly changed direction and moved forward again.

Be a casual cultivator.

You must have the awareness of being a casual cultivator.

Keeping to yourself is always the right choice.

In a situation like the one just now, if it were five hundred years ago, Gu Xiu might have argued and tried to persuade the other party, and might even have had some unnecessary conflict with Senior Brother Zhao.

But now.

Gu Xiu's mentality has changed.

I mention this because Ye Hongling is a pretty good person, but there's no need to persuade her any more.

What's more...

Seeing that the sky was about to get dark, Gu Xiu immediately found a secluded cave to hide in, and then took out the green bamboo pole.

This green bamboo pole can be used for fishing once every ten days.

And now.

Ten days have passed!
