Cultivating immortality relies on spatial abilities; defying fate to become the protagonist.

Chapter 196

Hearing Xingbai's reminder, Gu Shihan nodded slightly and replied, "Alright, since we can't kill them, then let's kill them ourselves. Keeping such people around is just a menace."

Gu Shihan made up her mind, and with a sweeping motion of her long sword, like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, she brought a powerful gust of wind that swept towards Hu Yu and Bai Wu.

With two muffled thuds, Bai Wu and Hu Yu were blasted away by the sword energy, crashing heavily to the ground and immediately losing consciousness.

"Hanhan, when did you become so amazing?!" Xingbai muttered.

Gu Shihan smiled, Hu Yu and Bai Wu were out of danger, then turned to Duan Siqi, who was still fighting with Wen Zhitai, and said calmly, "Siqi, stop fighting with him. If we spare his life, we might be able to find some clues from him."

Upon hearing this, Duan Siqi nodded and replied, "Understood!" She then swung out several extremely sharp ice blades in succession.

These ice blades were extremely fast, reaching Wen Zhitai in the blink of an eye.

Wen Zhitai was unable to dodge in time and was firmly pinned to the ground by several ice blades, unable to move.

Gu Shihan walked towards Wen Zhitai, who was pinned to the ground by ice blades, and squatted down to examine him.

"Speak, who are you? Why are you attacking us?" Wen Zhitai snorted coldly, turning his head away without answering.

At this moment, Hu Yu regained consciousness and struggled to shout, "We are from the Bai family. The Bai family is the largest family in Yuncheng. You can't afford to offend them. If you know what's good for you, release us now!"

"Let you go? Dream on!" Duan Siqi raised her hand and swung her sword, severing one of Hu Yu's legs.

"Ouch! Ouch! You bitches, if you dare touch us, we'll make you wish you were dead!" Hu Yu cursed, extremely arrogant.

"So noisy!" Gu Shihan tapped Hu Yu a few times, and a heart-wrenching scream rang out.

"Are you being honest now? If you are, then answer properly!"

"H-Honestly, we...we only did it on a whim. Our young master is most fond of beauties. Today, when he met you, he was confused and...Fairies, please forgive us!" Hu Yu kowtowed haphazardly, as if only in this way could he alleviate the pain in his body.

"The Bai family of Yuncheng? Bai Wu is actually your master?!" Gu Shihan frowned slightly, her face showing surprise.

She had heard some rumors about the Bai family from her friend Xingbai.

It is said that this family has always been shrouded in mystery, and their behavior is unpredictable and strange, as if they are supported by a powerful and secretive force.

There are also rumors circulating that the Bai family has connections with powerful forces on the high-level continent.

Hearing this, Tai shouted with a fierce but cowardly tone, secretly delighted: "That's right! Bai Wu is my family's third young master, and the most favored grandson of the family head! If you dare to lay a finger on us, once the family head finds out, you will beg for death!"

Upon hearing Gu Shihhan mention the Bai family, he keenly sensed that she was wary of them and guessed that these two women probably wouldn't dare to easily make a move against them.
"Hmph! Don't be so arrogant! What Bai family? I've never heard of them!" Siqi snorted coldly, her beautiful eyes wide open, her eyebrows raised, and the long sword in her hand flashed with cold light, instantly pressing against Wen Zhitai's throat.

Seeing this, Gu Shih-han quickly pulled Duan Si-qi aside and whispered, "Si-qi, don't be impulsive! The Bai family's strength is unfathomable, far beyond our ability to contend with. Even if these people deserve to die, we absolutely cannot let them lose their lives at our hands!" "Why not? Are we just going to let them be so arrogant and domineering, harming people like this?" Si-qi asked indignantly, her hand holding the sword trembling slightly with anger.

Gu Shihan shook his head slightly, and explained in a low voice with a solemn expression: "As far as I know, large families like the Bai family often leave a soul mark on their members. Once these members encounter misfortune, their elders can immediately sense it and track them down by following the mark. If we really kill them, I'm afraid we will be doomed."

"Are we just going to let them go like this?" Duan Siqi said bitterly.

“Siqi, I know that we must nip the weeds in the bud. They can die, but they cannot die by our hands.”

"Yes! There are plenty of ways to kill them, Shi Han. In this critical time, we need more information. Since Bai Wu can't be moved, the other two should be able to. Let's use soul searching!"

Duan Siqi was about to step forward to make a move when Gu Shihan quickly stopped her. Soul searching requires a high level of spiritual strength, so she said, "Siqi, let me do it!"

Gu Shihan looked the three of them over, then raised her hand and pressed it on Wen Zhitai's head to begin the soul search.

One bloody and cruel scene after another fueled Gu Shihan's anger. She brought out the water mirror, and the scene appeared before everyone's eyes. She cursed, "A bunch of beasts worse than pigs and dogs, they all deserve to die!"

"Shi Han, I knew they weren't good people. They're worse than scum. Calling them devils is an understatement."

Damn it! We need to figure out how to kill them! We're new here, with no foundation and shallow cultivation, so we really can't make a big enemy for ourselves! Duan Siqi said thoughtfully.

"Hmm, I also saw some unpleasant scenes. The Bai family probably has a deep connection with the demon race. However, this is the Immortal Realm, and I don't know what everyone's opinion is on the demon race. We must be careful." Gu Shihan looked at Siqi and said hesitantly.

"Then what should we do? We can't let them go! We can't let a tiger return to the mountain!" Duan Siqi said seriously.

“Understood! We’ll take them away from here. Xingbai said there’s a group of celestial beast tiger and leopard dens a hundred miles away. We’ll just dump them there to clear our presence. It’ll be fine if they die in the mouths of celestial beasts.” Gu Shihan said, pursing her lips.

"Good idea! Even if that wisp of divine sense discovers they're dead, it's none of our business if they die in the mouths of celestial beasts. Let's go!" Duan Siqi took out a red ribbon, quickly bound the three of them, and put them into the empty spirit beast pouch.

The two people and the fox quickly headed towards a place a hundred miles away. Along the way, Gu Shihan was filled with resentment: "Those innocent people are really pitiful. The Bai family must pay the price for their actions."

Duan Siqi clenched her fist. "Don't worry, good and evil will be rewarded in the end. I've recorded these scenes with the recording jade. They might be useful in the future! The Bai family is colluding with the demons. Sooner or later they will be exposed, and then the entire immortal realm will condemn them."

Before long, the two people and the fox arrived at their destination, and they could hear the roars of tigers and leopards from afar.

Concealing his aura, he affixed an invisibility talisman and stopped in a secluded spot about two miles from the tiger and leopard pack's den.

Duan Siqi opened the spirit beast pouch, affixed beast-attracting talismans to their bodies, and then threw the three of them out.

Xingbai quickly used magic to erase the traces and swiftly led the two away.
