Chapter 121 Facing Alone

Gu Yunzhou frowned, his eyes fixed on the gradually expanding whirlpool. He was clearly aware that if he was caught in it, the consequences would be disastrous, and he might not even be left with a bone.

He carefully recalled the attack launched by the man in black. Based on the strength he displayed, he deduced that he was likely a seventh-rank scholar. Using such strength to assassinate a ninth-rank rookie like him was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. If it weren't for his quick reflexes, he would have already drunk the fresh, hot Meng Po soup.

"When the great roc soars with the wind, it soars up to ninety thousand miles! Ride!" Gu Yunzhou secretly estimated his remaining spiritual energy, figuring it should be enough to sustain the next move. He decisively waved his hands forward, and the protective shield before him instantly shattered. At the same time, he felt as if he were being lifted by a powerful current, rising rapidly. In the blink of an eye, he successfully leaped out of the water.

This was a new technique he had recently developed, allowing him to transform his Wen Qi into forms other than the Peng bird. He exploited the water's buoyancy and his own control, skillfully manipulating the current to rapidly ascend. This innovative method not only increased his chances of survival but also demonstrated his deep understanding and flexible application of Wen Qi.

The man in black was furious. He had originally thought that dealing with a ninth-rank scholar would be easy, but he didn't expect the other party to be so cunning and difficult to deal with, as slippery as a loach. No wonder the previous group of people failed.

He immediately jumped out of the water, and before he could react, he saw countless peach blossoms coming towards him.

"The wind is howling!" The man in black reacted quickly and whispered directly. Originally, this word was used to describe people who were extremely frightened and suspicious. However, as the man in black finished speaking, a breeze blew up on the spot, scattering the flowers.

But even though he reacted quickly, a small part of it still fell on him, and then the familiar explosion sounded again.

Unlike the barbarian warriors who were at a loss, the man in black, apart from suffering some initial injuries, soon became surrounded by a surge of energy, and suddenly shattered all the flowers attached to his body.

Not far away, Gu Yunzhou sighed in disappointment. He knew it wouldn't be that easy. After all, there was a two-level difference, and the man in black wasn't just a barbarian warrior using brute force. But he wasn't discouraged. Instead, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

"Hmph! You have some skills! But it's more interesting this way." The man in black looked at the marks of the explosion on his clothes, his face extremely gloomy and said coldly.

After he finished speaking, he flashed and rushed towards Gu Yunzhou at an extremely fast speed.

Suddenly, a terrifying, bloody aura surged like a tidal wave, sending chills down one's spine. Gu Yunzhou, startled, quickly turned to see the young barbarian leader, tightly enveloped in a black and red aura, chasing after him like a ghost.

As he approached, the people who were fighting fiercely stopped their actions, their faces showing fear, and they began to retreat. The man in black who had originally attacked Gu Yunzhou also immediately turned around and retreated.

"Mr. Gu, come here quickly!" Uncle Cai called out to Gu Yunzhou in a low voice with a nervous expression, while his eyes were fixed on the gradually approaching figure, his eyes full of vigilance and fear.

"Roar!" A roar echoed through the sky, and a thick, fog-shrouded black shadow suddenly attacked. Before Gu Yunzhou could react, he saw a man in black instantly enveloped by a cloud of black mist.

Immediately afterwards, miserable cries and painful howls rang out, sending chills down one's spine. When the black fog dissipated, only a shrunken corpse remained. The red and black aura emanating from the young barbarian leader grew increasingly dense, as if nourished.

Killed instantly! Gu Yunzhou watched with trepidation. This was a seventh-rank scholar! In front of the barbarian leader who had successfully descended from the divine descent, he didn't even have the slightest power to resist and was devoured in an instant.

No wonder Master Jia and the others, upon seeing the other party's divine descent succeed, immediately turned and fled without hesitation, not daring to delay even a moment. The disparity in strength was simply too great to be true. Only then did Gu Yunzhou truly realize just how terrifying this young barbarian leader truly was.

"Run!" Someone in the field shouted, and then everyone rushed towards the river behind them.

When you encounter danger, you just need to run faster than others! This was a sentence that suddenly popped up in Gu Yunzhou's mind. At this moment, it was a true portrayal. Everyone ran as fast as they could, wishing they had more legs.

At this time, Gu Yunzhou's position was still relatively forward. During the battle just now, they had unknowingly come to the interrupted part of the river.

However, Master Jia was in a dangerous situation, as he was followed closely by a man in black and the small barbarian leader. Seeing the two men getting closer and closer, Master Jia could only speed up his pace desperately, but he knew in his heart that if he continued like this, he would be caught up sooner or later.

"Go!" Seeing Master Jia's situation was dire, Gu Yunzhou paused for a moment, then quickly mobilized his inner spiritual energy. Then, several petals suddenly appeared near the two men in black in front of Master Jia. Following the familiar sound of an explosion, the two men stumbled and involuntarily stopped.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Master Jia came from behind and surpassed the two men, rushing forward quickly. However, when the two men came to their senses, they found that the figure of the man in black who was at the back had disappeared from their sight.

"No, hurry up!" The two men were filled with remorse and anger, but they knew they couldn't delay any longer, so they immediately ran for their lives. However, one of them was a little slow to react, and was immediately enveloped by the terrifying black cloud of the barbarian leader who was chasing them relentlessly. With a series of teeth-grinding cracks of bones and screams, the barbarian leader temporarily stopped.

Seeing this, Gu Yunzhou stopped distracting himself and continued to run away. After only a few seconds of delay, two men in black rushed to the front.

"Mr. Gu, let's go!" Old Huang also rushed over at this time, an anxious look on his face. Gu Yunzhou had no time to think about anything else. He kept pace with the person in front of him and ran with all his strength again.

"Who dares to be so presumptuous in our human territory!" Just after the barbarian leader killed another man in black, the late patrol team finally arrived.
