The chivalrous spirit is fickle

"Do you have any evidence for what you said?"

Shi Gu greeted the crowd with a calm look and said.

"You did it very cleanly. I naturally have no evidence, but because of this, the three thousand boys and girls may still be alive."

"I want to ask you today, Sect Master Su Xun, are you willing to trust me once for these three thousand boys and girls?"

Su Xun's face turned extremely ugly when he heard that, his eyes were full of struggle, but he didn't say anything in the end. He just stood there quietly, like a fleshless puppet.

Seeing this, Shi Gu's eyes were full of disappointment. The young man who traveled the world with a sword in the past has now become a qualified sect leader. He will hesitate, have concerns, and calculate gains and losses, but he has lost his chivalrous spirit.

"The Yulin League is colluding with the Great Demon. If you are still human, you should not stop me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of laughter came from the elders of Yaowang Valley. A white-haired old man stepped forward, looked at Shigu from afar, and sneered.

"Your Excellency is really good at talking. You said that whoever is colluding with the Great Devil is the Great Devil. With just a few words, you want us to suspect that the Yulin League is colluding with the Great Devil."

"How ridiculous!"

"Our five major sects have guarded this territory for more than a thousand years. Do you know how hard it was? The ancestors of the Yulin League have lost countless lives in resisting the demons. Their status was built with their lives, and they will not tolerate slander from a villain like you."

"Let's not talk about merits and demerits. You, a villain, don't even want to acknowledge your own identity. Sect Master Su, let me ask you, do you want to trust such a person?"

Su Xun still didn't answer, but his expression became uglier and uglier. He was there, but he was like a bystander who was watching from the sidelines, not saying a word.

Shi Gu had long stopped looking at Su Xun. He stared at the dark crowd of people and spoke slowly.

"It's not a thousand years ago now."

"You five major sects harbor filth and disregard human life. The major sects in the martial arts world have been fighting each other for years, but you never care about it. Instead, you start to secretly touch brothels and casinos, which are businesses that are not allowed to be touched in the agreement."

"Zong Mingfu colluded with the demon clan, but you didn't care. When they gave you benefits, you were willing to be blind."

"In just six years, the entire martial arts world has been turned into a mess by you, and it's neither human nor ghost."

"They murdered and robbed people, kidnapped people, and occupied farmers' farmland. They were well fed and well fed, but they forced farmers to sell their children and wives and children."

"Their children entered the brothels and casinos that you secretly controlled, and their lives were hopeless."

"Is this your achievement and your confidence?"

"In that case..."

Shi Gu reached out his hand to touch his face, and after his palm touched it, his true face was revealed. He reached out his hand to touch the knife and spoke word by word.

"I am Qingcheng Shigu."

"Tonight I want to seek justice with a knife."

As he spoke, Shi Gu pointed the blade at the people from the five major sects and spoke calmly.

"If you want to die, come on."

"Including you, Su Xun."

The murderous aura spread from Shi Gu's blade, pupils, and every pore, and approached everyone.

Su Xun's expression changed slightly, and when he was about to speak, the elder of the Yulin League beside him spoke slowly.

"Sect Master Su, among our five major sects, the Demon Sect is the most powerful, and the East Sea Sword Sect is in a remote location. Only our Yulin League, Xuanming Division, and Yaowang Valley are of the same blood and are closely connected. We prosper together and suffer together."

"I hope Sect Master Su can distinguish right from wrong."

Hearing this, Su Xun's breath caught and he fell silent again. After a moment, he looked up at Shi Gu and let out a long breath. He turned around, with his back to Shi Gu, and whispered.

"I'm tired."

"Just pretend that I have never been here tonight. I will no longer care about Shi Gu's life or death."

Su Xun narrowed his eyes tiredly and strode away from here. He knew the outcome of tonight. There were a total of forty ninth-grade martial artists in Yulin League and Yaowang Valley.

Tonight, Shigu was destined not to leave alive.

Su Xun once wanted to save Shi Gu, as long as Shi Gu stopped letting Nan Mian continue to practice the Great Dream Heavenly Art. However, facing Shi Gu's continuous questioning, Su Xun knew that he could no longer save Shi Gu.

Because he couldn't answer, Su Xun couldn't answer any of those questions.

Three thousand boys and girls?

Two hundred years ago, when Su Xun and Shi Gu first met, they rescued three children from a group of bandits. He and Shi Gu were still teenagers, and Shi Gu was not yet called Shi Gu.

The three children found coarse wine, coarse tea, and cold, hard bread in the bandit's den.

The wine was mixed with impurities, had a sour taste, and had dead ants floating on it. Shi Gu got drunk that night and was severely ridiculed by Su Xun.

But it was also that night that Su Xun held onto a big tree and vomited violently.

Two hundred years later, he never drank such a coarse liquor again, but he never got drunk again.

"If the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if people are observing, there will be no evil."

Su Xun whispered these words, then suddenly closed his eyes, exhaled a long breath, and murmured in a low voice in the night.

"I'm sorry, Shigu."

"Xuanmingsi, you can't let it decline in my hands."

Chapter 85: Siege (Part 2)

After Su Xun left, the ten black-robed elders of the Yulin League and the thirty elders of the Medicine King Valley surrounded him at the same time.

The black robe fluttered, and ten figures clad in black robes rose into the air, like black clouds, suspended in the sky, looking down at the ground proudly.

In front of the huge ravine, Shi Gu held the knife in one hand and said nothing, but someone among the black-robed elders spoke softly.

"If we act at the same time, I'm afraid we won't be able to save Huiyin City. I'm afraid you and I will be held responsible afterwards."

"It's not that difficult. Just push everything onto Qingcheng Shigu. He'll be dead by then, so what can he say?"

While the few of them were chatting and laughing, they did not really look down on Shi Gu. Instead, they adjusted their positions in mid-air and slowly approached him.

Shi Gu narrowed his eyes slightly, but his breathing gradually became heavier, and white air kept coming out from his mouth and nose, like a burning flame, evaporating and floating into the night sky.

His strength has not yet recovered and he is still only in the early stage of the ninth level martial realm. It is nothing but a pipe dream to expect him to easily deal with these forty ninth level martial artists.

The only way is to fight for your life.

"Junior."

Suddenly, a black-robed elder of the Yulin League called out to Shigu softly, and the next moment, a figure appeared in front of Shigu, using his palm as a sword and instantly pressed against Shigu's chest.

clang! ! ! !

Amid the sound of swords clashing, the long sword scratched across the palm, making a sharp sound and sparking a spark on the palm.

Before the long sword stopped, a man appeared beside Shi Gu, and his sword came out like a dragon, like the sky opening up, shooting straight at Shi Gu.

Shi Gu drew his sword, but his body rushed backwards to avoid the sword light shooting out from the hole. However, before he could take a few steps, two lumps of mud suddenly appeared on the ground and entangled Shi Gu's feet in an instant.

The moment Shi Gu stopped, six sword lights suddenly surrounded him from all directions.

Shi Gu exhaled a breath of hot air, and suddenly raised his long sword, but at an extremely fast speed, he chopped towards countless sword shadows in an instant.

The sword flashes, and the knife flashes.

Shi Gu exerted force on his feet and shook off the mud on his feet, but at the same time, a palm finally came down, and there was no way to avoid it, and it landed heavily on Shi Gu's chest.

With a muffled sound, a ray of clear light pierced through Shi Gu's body. Shi Gu's face turned pale and he retreated repeatedly, but the man pushed forward and refused to give way.

Shi Gu took several steps back, then suddenly stopped. His eyes fixed, and he opened his mouth to spit.

"Roar!!!!!"

In an instant, like a tiger roaring in the mountains, the piercing sound waves resounded through the sky, and a flash of knife light spewed out from Shi Gu's mouth.

As the knife light came out, it suddenly grew brighter, more dazzling, and straighter than a pillar. There was a surge of murderous intent in it, like a chaotic beast. The expressions of everyone present changed, and they all avoided it.

At such a close distance, the man who pushed the palm had no time to dodge. After the sword light like a beam of light passed, only the lower half of his body was left, stopping in front of Shi Gu.

With a plop, the half-body fell to the ground, but no blood flowed out, as if the surging murderous intent had sucked all his blood in an instant.

The elders of Yulin League and Yaowang Valley looked at the corpse with a flash of horror in their eyes.

They did not underestimate the enemy. In their recent successive attacks, the ten black-robed elders did not hold back at all. Their killing moves, enemy traps, and siege formations were all resolved by Shi Gu.

Only the last sword palm attack really hurt Shi Gu, but when he was about to defeat Shi Gu, he spat out a knife light from his mouth and defeated him in one blow.

"Pooh."

Shi Gu opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva. A big hole had appeared on the right side of his chest, but at the same time, the golden elixir floating in his body finally reacted.

The flow of Dan Qi was like an elixir of immortality, causing Shi Gu's wounds to heal rapidly and the granulation tissue to wriggle.

Even without the golden elixir obtained from Penglai, Shi Gu still had a way to repair his broken chest, but that would consume his true essence.

In any case, this golden elixir from Penglai was a great help, but that was all.

Shi Gu reached out and touched the long knife in his hand, his fingers slightly bent, the blade scratched his skin, and a few drops of blood oozed out and fell into the blade.

One person died, but none of the elders from Yulin League and Yaowang Valley felt sorry. Instead, they looked at Shigu calmly and said lightly.

"Not ordinary, it seems that you really have inherited the Heavenly Tribulation Killing."

"I remember you were supposed to be an expert with a sword, but I didn't expect your knife skills to be far superior to your sword skills."

"I can't keep you here tonight."

Shi Gu remained silent, looking at everyone without saying a word. As his true energy circulated, not a single breath leaked out, just as he had taught Shen Yue and Su Xue.

When fighting a life-and-death battle with a true master, you have to give up on using those loud and powerful moves and instead concentrate your strength on one point.

Suddenly, the black robe moved again, and several figures appeared beside Shi Gu in an instant. Long swords were like rain, like countless sword marks, drawing countless trajectories in an instant, and crushing towards Shi Gu.

Shi Gu raised his foot, stepped forward, rushed into the crowd, turned around, twisted his waist, and swung his knife.

The long sword was like a moon, drawing countless arcs of light, and among the dense sword marks, a waning moon was cut out.

Sparks flew, but among the ghostly figures, like fireworks, blooming one after another in the dark night.

Ding! A sword came across and landed on the long sword, with great force and power, the sword hummed and whistled, shaking Shi Gu's palm slightly. The man came closer, but he pressed the sword with one hand and pressed forward.

Shi Gu was unable to draw his sword, but countless sword beams were falling on him. He took a step and rushed backwards, but the long sword did the same, and did not retreat a single step, but advanced closer.

An elder in a black robe stood in the distance, constantly inhaling and exhaling. The true energy in his body was almost condensed into a substance, forcing it out of his body. He suddenly opened his eyes, raised the sword with one hand, and stabbed straight out like lightning.

A green light suddenly appeared, and a terrifying green light column, as big as a carriage, penetrated the entire street and arrived in an instant.

Everyone in front of Shi Gu instantly withdrew and avoided the terrifying green sword pillar, but Shi Gu could not avoid it. If he avoided it, the green sword pillar would fall on Nanmian and the other two, turning them into ashes.

"call……"

At this critical moment, Shi Gu slowly exhaled a breath of foul air. His pupils were full of blood, as if blood was flowing, but there was no longer that charming glimmer.

The knife rises, the knife falls.

Shi Gu held the sword with both hands for the first time, and the long sword whizzed through the air.

However, when Shi Gu swung his sword, he was a hundred steps away from the black-robed elder who drew the sword, but when the sword fell, Shi Gu appeared in front of the black-robed elder who drew the sword.

A straight knife line cut through the space from top to bottom. The blood-red flame instantly cut the green sword pillar in half, and also cut the man who drew the sword in half.

Dust rose up and billowing smoke like a thick fog filled the field. However, in the eyes of many ninth-grade martial artists, the smoke seemed to be nothing.

The black-robed elder who drew the sword had his body cut straight in half, and the cut was as smooth as a mirror, as if nothing could stop the sword from cutting down.

Shi Gu kept on chopping with the knife, and most of his clothes were destroyed, especially the upper right part of his body which was naked, revealing countless scars and strong muscles.

He looked as if he had been roasted by a fire. Hot steam was coming out of his body and floating in the air. A drop of blood was flowing from his right eye. He looked very miserable.

"Huh...huh..."

Shi Gu seemed exhausted. He gasped for breath, exhaled mouthful of white air, and his chest rose and fell rapidly.

This time, everyone's eyes fell on the long sword in Shigu's eyes.

The sword was extremely long and beautiful. The blade was slightly narrow and thin, like a Miao Dao, but longer and thinner than a Miao Dao.

After the death of the second black-robed elder, the elders of the Yulin League also became impatient. Every time Shi Gu killed people, he chose the strongest ones in the Yulin League. His targets were clear and he had never failed.

"Friends of Medicine King Valley, stop standing by and watching!"

Following a loud shout, all the elders of Medicine King Valley also moved and landed on the field. One of the elders frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Qingcheng Shigu is indeed not a simple person. With his strength, he must have already reached the threshold of the late ninth rank. But he pretends to be an eighth rank warrior on weekdays. How despicable!"

"Let's go together and don't give him any chance!"
