Everyone turned to look, and saw a martial artist at the peak of the Divine Travel Realm walking out of the mist.

Chen Yuanjie!

Chen Yuanjie was covered in wounds, his clothes were stained with blood, and he left bloody footprints with every step, looking like a demon who had crawled out of hell to avenge himself!

"Brother Chen isn't dead, and he's even come after us?"

"Very good!"

Both Lü Tiansheng and Jiang Yueming smiled.

After taking a look, Gu Youyu's expression changed slightly: "No, that person is not Chen Yuanjing, at least not the real Chen Yuanjie! He doesn't have the aura of a living person at all!"

Lu Tiansheng and Jiang Yueming immediately used their divine senses to investigate and found that it was indeed the case!

"This Chen Yuanjie is not the real Chen Yuanjie. He is an illusion created by someone in our team due to fear or hatred, triggering the Chaotic Soul Binding Array!" Gu Youyu added.

"Whose wicked thoughts created this illusion?" Gu Xiaojun asked loudly.

"It wasn't me!"

"It wasn't me! I have no grudge against Brother Chen, why would I be afraid of his revenge?"

"Me too!"

Everyone else shook their heads, but Ye Feng and Chen Qinghe remained silent.

Seeing Gu Youyu looking at him, Ye Feng laughed and said, "It's definitely not me. I didn't know Chen Yuanjie at all before I came to Gu Haocheng."

"So that's Miss Chen?"

Gu Youyu then looked at Chen Qinghe again.

Chen Qinghe bit her lip, her face pale, and her delicate body trembled slightly.

As Chen Yuanjie walked towards them step by step, he held a large golden-ringed sword and stared coldly at Chen Qinghe, saying, "Chen Qinghe, I risked my life to save you in the Reversal of Heaven and Earth Formation, and you kept saying you would repay me with your body!"

"Just when I was about to emerge from the Reversal of Heaven and Earth Formation, you attacked me from behind... You venomous woman!"

As soon as Chen Yuanjie said this, everyone present looked at Chen Qinghe.

"No...that's not how it is. I didn't ambush Brother Chen. What he said is all a lie."

"Fake? Heh, can't we tell if it's real or fake?"

"Chen Qinghe, I originally thought you were able to escape the formation alive by having Chen Yuanjie die in your place, but I never expected you to personally ambush and kill him!"

"Lord Gu, is there any need to tell us the truth?"

"Get this woman out of here! I don't want to associate with her!"

Lu Tiansheng, Jiang Yueming, Li Feiye, and even Gong Mingfei all reprimanded him without any politeness.

Gu Youyu said coldly, "Chen Qinghe, I already said before we set off that no matter what, we are companions acting together, and at least we can't fight amongst ourselves in the Gu Hao Secret Realm. Since you disobey my orders, from now on you are no longer a member of my team. You'd better watch yourself!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Youyu quickened his pace and strode forward.

The others immediately followed, leaving Chen Qinghe there.

Chen Qinghe was terrified and wanted to chase after him, but Chen Yuanjie immediately blocked her way with a large knife in hand!

"Chen Qinghe, you'd better die!"

Chen Yuanjie raised his hand and swung his sword, the blade's energy like ocean waves!

Those who had already gone far away all turned back to look, and were all deeply moved by the wave-like swordsmanship!

"This is Chen Yuanjie's strongest sword technique—the Canglang Sword Technique!"

"I never imagined that the illusions created by the Soul-Binding Array would be so real!"

Lu Tiansheng and Jiang Yueming were amazed.

Gu Youyu explained, "The Chaotic Soul Trapping Mind Array creates illusions based on our thoughts and ideas. So, if we believe that the person or monster that frightens us is very powerful, then that person or monster will become incredibly powerful, perhaps even stronger than the original strength of that person or monster!"

"There's no limit? If that's the case, it's terrifying!" Gu Xiaojun shouted.

"There is an upper limit, though. The Chaotic Soul Trapping Heart Array is a tenth-grade spirit array, so its power will not exceed the Saint Realm. The highest it can reach is the ninth level of the Saint Realm," Gu Youyu replied.

“That’s already terrifying enough. If a Saint Realm illusion really appears, all of us will die here!” Lu Tiansheng said, frowning.

"That's why I told you to control your thoughts and not let any distractions arise!" Gu Youyu said emphatically.

Gu Xiaojun asked with some curiosity, "That's true, but why did Chen Yuanjie's hallucination suddenly appear?"

Gong Mingfei sneered and said, "What's there to not understand? It must be that Chen Qinghe ambushed and killed Chen Yuanjie in the Reversal of the Universe Formation, and now she's uneasy and subconsciously fears that Chen Yuanjie will haunt her as a ghost. So this Soul-Trapping Formation was triggered by Chen Qinghe's fear, and thus created an illusion targeting her!"

"Chen Qinghe deserved to die," Jiang Yueming sneered.

However, at that moment, the air in front of them rippled, and another illusion appeared.

And this illusion was none other than Night Wind!

The appearance of the night breeze surprised everyone.

After all, the real Night Wind was in the group, and now a Night Wind illusion suddenly appeared, which was simply unbelievable.

In an instant, everyone looked at Ye Feng.

Night Wind immediately said, "This is definitely not an illusion caused by me. How could I be afraid of myself?"

“That makes sense!” Lu Tiansheng nodded immediately.

"So who exactly created this illusion?" Jiang Yueming asked, frowning.

As soon as Jiang Yueming finished speaking, she saw Illusionary Night Wind walking towards Sun Nan with a folding fan in hand and a cold smile on his face.

"Sun Nan, prepare to die!"

This was actually an illusion created by Sun Nan's distracting thoughts!

Gu Youyu, of course, wouldn't abandon Sun Nan, and immediately said, "Let's work together to destroy this illusion!"

Sun Nan gave Gu Youyu a grateful look, and then immediately took action.

In an instant, all sorts of martial arts techniques flew towards the illusory night wind.

Although the illusory Night Wind unleashed its Crimson True Qi, it was only at the peak of the Divine Travel Realm and was no match for so many people.

What's more, this team also includes Gu Youyu and Gong Mingfei, two martial arts masters at the Transcendent Realm!

In just a short while, the illusionary night wind was blasted to smithereens.

The Illusionary Night Wind was created by the Chaotic Soul Trapping Array, so after it was destroyed, there was no corpse or limbs left; it simply vanished into nothingness.

"Sun Nan, control your mindset!" Gu Youyu said to Sun Nan.

"Yes, Master!"

Sun Nan nodded quickly, his heart pounding with anxiety.

Although Gu Youyu helped him, the way Gu Youyu looked at him just now was obviously very unfriendly. Clearly, Gu Youyu already had a problem with him, and it was a deep one!

You should know that Gu Youyu already favored his eldest disciple Li Feiye more, and now that Li Feiye is performing poorly here, things are naturally even worse!

And it's all the night wind's fault!
