Hongmeng Heavenly Book

Lei Chen's killing intent towards Gu Changsheng reached its peak.

As the holy son of the sect, he should be respected by all disciples.

The guy named Gu Changsheng ignored his words and left alone with Su Qingwan.

This was an immense disgrace for him.

"Remember, in this Azure Canyon, whoever can kill that beast for this Holy Son..."

"I will ask my father to accept him as his personal disciple."

Lei Chen's eyes were narrowed, his voice was chilling, and his icy tone was full of coldness.

Upon hearing this, the eyes of all the disciples lit up.

The father of the Holy Son?

That's one of the top experts in the Eastern Region.

If he were to be accepted as a personal disciple by that person.

This would undoubtedly strengthen the bond between them and the Holy Son.

This is a very rare reward.

"Really, Holy Son?" Some of the top Transcendent Realm prodigies asked, their faces darkening.

Lei Chen glanced at the person who asked the question and said coldly, "When have I ever lied to you?"

"As long as you can kill this child."

"He will become my father's personal disciple."

"There is no doubt about this."

Everyone was breathing rapidly.

Their eyes gleamed with bloodlust and excitement.

"But this kid is going to enter the Star Cave soon!"

Suddenly, someone's expression changed drastically.

The others chimed in, "Holy Son, that kid will definitely die if he enters the Star Cave."

"This reward doesn't seem to be of much use, does it?"

Lei Chen sneered, "You're overthinking it!"

Everyone was surprised.

Lei Chen looked towards the direction of the Star Cave and said coldly, "Since Su Qingwan has asked that Gu Changsheng to leave..."

"He absolutely cannot let Gu Changsheng die here."

"Otherwise, how can you slap this holy son in the face?"

His tone was calm, yet it conveyed considerable confidence.

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up; naturally, none of them wanted Gu Changsheng to die here.

Otherwise, how could they have killed him and become the deputy sect leader's disciple?

"But with the Holy Maiden around, killing him won't be an easy task, will it?"

A sharp glint flashed in the eyes of a young man.

Lei Chen sneered, "Su Qingwan is just using that kid as a shield. Does she think she's with him all the time?"

"That's absolutely impossible."

"If that were really the case, I would have killed him on the spot."

His eyes flashed with a cold light and killing intent.

Lei Chen had already considered Su Qingwan as his own possession.

Now there's a young man who has such a good relationship with Su Qingwan.

He was naturally very unhappy.

"The Star Cave, this Holy Son also wants to take a look!"

Lei Chen said coldly.

"Walk."

"Set off."

With a wave of his hand, he instantly led his men towards the Star Cave.

"..."

"I'm sorry, but I think Lei Chen must hate you."

After walking for a while, Su Qingwan said apologetically.

To be honest, it was a bit impulsive.

She shouldn't have used Gu Changsheng as a shield.

Su Qingwan knew very well that Lei Chen's narrow-mindedness would definitely lead to retaliation against Gu Changsheng.

"hehe."

Gu Changsheng immediately waved his hand and said with a faint smile, "Lei Chen is nothing, he can't cause any trouble."

"If he comes looking for trouble, I wouldn't hesitate to kill him outright."

Su Qingwan said, "Killing him won't be easy."

"His father is the deputy sect leader of the sect."

"If Lei Chen gets into trouble, his father will definitely investigate."

"That will be troublesome."

"Moreover, Lei Chen's strength has already reached the Life and Death Realm."

"You've only just entered the Transcendent Realm; it's clearly impossible for you to fight Lei Chen."

Gu Changsheng didn't say anything. Although his current strength was only at the Transcendent Realm.

However, they will have to face some cultivators at the Life and Death Realm.

He is certainly capable of fighting them all.

Moreover, he is a sword cultivator.

When the life-or-death situation arrives, death is inevitable.

"What is it about this Star Cave that makes you so wary?"

"Both you and Lei Chen are at the Life and Death Realm, and you're a sword cultivator, so your sword intent should have reached the sixth level by now, right?"

"Is the Star Cave really that dangerous?"

Gu Changsheng inquired.

That's a bit strange.

Su Qingwan said with a wry smile, "You don't know, the terrifying thing about the Star Cave is not the demonic beasts that dwell inside."

"Instead, this Star Cave possesses a special power. Anyone with the cultivation level of the Life and Death Realm who enters it will be suppressed to the Transcendent Realm by the power within the Star Cave."

Gu Changsheng's expression changed, and he said with some surprise, "They'll all be suppressed to the Transcendent Realm?"

"Are the monsters inside at the Life and Death Realm?"

"Hmm." Su Qingwan nodded and said seriously, "That's right, the demonic beasts dwelling there are still at the Life and Death Realm."

"We don't know why humans' strength is suppressed when they enter."

"It was only later that I realized that the beast sitting cross-legged at the Life and Death Realm had consumed and refined the Star Spirit Liquid from the Star Cave."

"The power within them is perfectly compatible with the power of the Star Cave, so naturally it cannot be suppressed."

Gu Changsheng's eyes gleamed: "I see."

"However, let's not go into the Star Cave."

"We can leave this place when we get to the corner ahead," Su Qingwan said, pointing in a direction ahead.

Gu Changsheng: "Why are you leaving? We haven't even entered the Star Cave yet!"

Su Qingwan said in a deep voice, "The Star Cave is too dangerous. If the two of us go in together, something bad is very likely to happen."

"Besides..."

"Besides, you also suffered a Dao injury?"

Gu Changsheng glanced at Su Qingwan.

Su Qingwan nodded.

Gu Changsheng said, "Since this Star Spirit Pool is useful to you, we certainly can't waste this opportunity."

"Besides, we haven't even entered this Star Cave yet, how do you know I'm not up to it?"

"You knew perfectly well whether I was good enough or not when you tackled me before, didn't you?"

A playful smile played on his lips, his expression warm and amiable.

Su Qingwan blushed all the way to the roots of her neck.

She glanced at Gu Changsheng and said angrily, "Why are you saying this?"

"That was an accident, just forget about it."

That glance exudes a captivating charm.

Gu Changsheng chuckled and said, "Even if I wanted to forget, I'm afraid you couldn't, could you?"

"You're asking for it."

Su Qingwan feigned anger.

But she wasn't really angry.

For some reason, she just couldn't get angry at Gu Changsheng; there was a strange emotion lingering in her heart.

"Alright, let's go to the Star Cave."

Gu Changsheng smiled faintly.

"You, you, you, I've told you so much, why don't you understand?"

When Su Qingwan saw Gu Changsheng heading towards the Star Cave, she was immediately furious.

She pursed her lips, but still followed.

Of course, she couldn't possibly ignore Gu Changsheng.

"..."
