The sudden voice startled Gui Ning and the monks who attended him.

Mo Wen, who always had a smile on his face regardless of honor or disgrace, also showed a look of surprise.

Gu Xinglang heard the voice and found it surprisingly familiar.

"Go away," the man said mechanically, "and leave this little monster behind."

When a monk saw that this person dared to speak to their master like that, he immediately shouted, "How dare you! Who are you?!"

Mo Wen turned around and slapped the attendant monk on the body. The attendant monk's body flew up and fell out of the Gui'e Forest.

Gui Ning and his attendant monks were all stunned when they saw this scene.

Mo Wen glanced at the dense jungle on the other side of the clearing and ordered his attendant monks, "Let's go."

The attending monks were bewildered and stepped forward to take Su Ying and the others away.

"Monk," the mechanical voice sounded again, "Do you want me to cut my own flesh and feed it to this little monster you raised?"

Mo Wen turned and walked out of the woods.

Gui Ning glanced at Gu Xinglang and followed Mo Wen. At this moment, he couldn't care about Gu Xinglang, nor could he ask Mo Wen who the person who was speaking was.

The attending monks left Su Ying and several other prisoners behind and followed Mo Wen and Gui Ning out of the Gui'e Forest.

Gu Xinglang was the only one standing in the open space in the forest. Looking around, Gu Xinglang felt a little nervous. Is there anyone in the Eternal Life Temple who is more powerful than Mo Wen?

A man in a black robe came out of the forest. The hood was pulled down very low. Gu Xinglang could only see that the man was very pale, with a very pointed chin and no beard. Was he very young? Gu Xinglang watched the man walk in front of him. Fortunately, Young Master Gu still remembered what he was acting at the moment and did not ask the man who he was.

The man walked leisurely in front of Gu Xinglang. He was a full head taller than Gu Xinglang. He raised his hand to lift Gu Xinglang's chin, touched the totem on Gu Xinglang's face, and muttered to himself: "It turns out to be a blood vessel."

Gu Xinglang took a step back and shook off the man's hand that was lifting his chin.

"Take them with you and follow me," the man was not angry. He pointed at Su Ying and the others on the ground and said to Gu Xinglang.

Gu Xinglang didn't say anything.

This person was not in a hurry and stood waiting for Gu Xinglang.

Gradually, the totem on Gu Xinglang's face faded away, and his bloodshot eyes returned to normal.

This man didn't pay attention to Gu Xinglang's change. He looked down at the person under his feet and said, "He's dead."

The person who was declared dead was also an old man, as skinny and wounded as Su Ying. He fell among the body parts on the ground, his cloudy eyes wide open.

Gu Xinglang squatted down and felt the man's neck pulse. The old man was dead.

The man grabbed Gu Xinglang by the back of his collar and lifted him up from the ground.

Gu Xinglang..., this action inexplicably made him feel familiar.

"That monk is not a good person," the man said while holding Gu Xinglang, "I just saved you, you have to thank me."

"Thank you," said Gu Xinglang.

"You should be sincere when you say thank you. This is a sign of a person's upbringing," the man added.

Gu Xinglang said: "Who are you?"

The man loosened his grip and Gu Xinglang's feet landed on the ground again.

"Who are you?" Gu Xinglang asked.

The man looked at Gu Xinglang and said, "They call me a human Gu."

Gui Ning and Mo Wen were walking on a sandy and gravelly path in the mountains. Looking back, they saw the attendant monks following behind them. Gui Ning asked Mo Wen, "Master, who was the person who was talking just now?"

Mo Wen seemed not to hear Gui Ning's words and walked forward without saying a word.

Gui Ning chased after Mo Wen for a few steps and said, "Master Host, that person..."

Mo Wen's footsteps suddenly stopped, and Gui Ning ran in front of Mo Wen.

When the attending monks saw Mo Wen stop walking, they also stopped. They also wanted to know who had spoken just now, but they did not dare to ask.

Gui Ning stood in front of Mo Wen, looking concerned. "Master Host," Xuanwu Xinjun said, "Soon, the troops from the five countries will arrive. Who is that person?"

"He has not been concerned with worldly affairs for a long time. He must have appeared today for Gu Xinglang," Mo Wen said, and his expression returned to normal. He whispered, "Your Majesty, don't worry."

Gui Ning said: "Is he the eminent monk who retired to the Yongsheng Temple?" He wanted to test the truth. Gui Ning could only ask this now. Gui Ning absolutely did not believe that the man could be some eminent monk. Is there any eminent monk who would tell Mo Wen to get out just by opening his mouth?

Mo Wen smiled and said, "Your Majesty, why bother to ask about the origins of a man who doesn't care about worldly affairs? It would be good for him to watch over Gu Xinglang."

So this person also knew about the human Gu, Gui Ning's mind was working rapidly.

"You escort His Majesty to rest," Mo Wen ordered the monk attendants.

Gui Ning obediently followed the attendant monks, but suddenly a difficult character appeared. If Gu Xinglang couldn't send the message out, then he had to find a way to spread the message!

The attendant monk who was knocked out of the Gui'e Forest by Mo Wen's palm was still standing behind Mo Wen without moving. He suffered internal injuries, but was still able to walk.

Mo Wen gently patted the attendant monk on the chest again.

The attendant monk vomited a few mouthfuls of blood, and his chest, which had been stuffy, suddenly felt relieved.

"I hit you just now to save you," Mo Wen said to the attendant monk.

The attendant monk knelt down and thanked Mo Wen: "Thank you very much, Master, for saving my life."

"Don't let anyone come here again," Mo asked.

"What about Gu Xinglang?"

"He can't keep a monster trapped forever," Mo Wen looked at Gui Elin behind him and whispered, "Gu Xinglang can't turn back."

The attendant monk looked up at Mo and asked, "Who is that person?"

"Another monster," Mo Wen waved his hand to let the attendant monk leave.

The attendant monk left quickly, thinking about Mo Wen's words, another monster? Was that person the same as Gu Xinglang, eating human flesh and drinking human blood, a murderous demon?

Mo Wen stood alone on the path in the mountains. It was almost dusk and the setting sun was blood-red. Mo Wen's usually calm face turned gray. The wound on his chest had not healed yet. This person suddenly appeared at this time, and everything was out of his control.

The attending monks brought seven people to Gui'e Forest. When Mo Wen took their men away, when Gu Xinglang looked at the seven people again, only Su Ying was still alive.

"Follow me," the man asked Gu Xinglang to follow him.

Gu Xinglang found a place in the Gui'e Forest and dug a hole with his bare hands to bury the six people first. Although he didn't know the identities of the six people, after everything was over, Gu Xinglang thought that there would always be a chance that the six people would be taken back by their families.

The man stood by the tree, not helping, but not urging Gu Xinglang to leave. He just said to Gu Xinglang when he was filling the soil again, "I know, you are also a human Gu."
