◇ 【146】 Put the blame on others

Xuanyuan Ao was shocked. He knew that Chengfeng was a very powerful cultivator, but he didn't expect that he could kill Xuanyuan Chun with just one move.

"Master, we are all being taken advantage of!" Xuanyuan Rong's face turned pale, and he stared at Chengfeng with his almond-shaped eyes unkindly.

Xuanyuan Ao cautiously stopped her and pondered, "Could it be that she accidentally entered an illusion?"

"No!" Xuanyuan Rong clasped his fists and said, "Master, I am sure we did not trigger the magic circle."

Xuanyuan Ao then said: "Chase!"

Chengfeng had already used his magic to escape. The struggling ginseng doll, locked in his hand with his energy, shed a few crystal-clear tears from its round eyes. It was teetering on the verge of collapse, looking both adorable and pitiful. It was a pity that the ginseng doll was too nutritious for him right now, otherwise he would have eaten it right then and there.

"Stop him!"

Xuanyuan Ao's stern shout came from behind.

They caught up so quickly. Chengfeng was about to flee again when he was surrounded by the Xuanyuan family.

Xuanyuan Ao stepped forward steadily, staring at Chengfeng with a calm expression and his hands behind his back, looking non-aggressive. "Chengfeng, if you can voluntarily hand over the ginseng doll, this family head can give you a quick death."

"Don't even think about it." Cheng Feng sneered, looking up, and asked nonchalantly, "Master Xuanyuan, do you really think you can keep me here with just a few of you?"

Xuanyuan Ao sighed softly, "As fellow seekers of the Way, this clan leader has never wished to commit more sins of killing. However, in the world of cultivation, one cannot help oneself. Everyone, retreat!"

"Yes!" The disciples of the Xuanyuan family were well-trained and retreated a hundred feet at the same time.

Xuanyuan Ao's aura surged, his powerful energy bending the weeds and trees behind him into a crescent-shaped arc. The wind also grew fierce, rustling the leaves.

Chengfeng tucked the ginseng doll behind his waist, held his spirit sword before him, snorted coldly, and attacked first. The silver spirit sword, tempered by the energy of the elemental force, shone even more brightly. The sharp sword energy transformed into thunder and lightning, even changing the color of the sky. The sky, which had been cloudless just a moment ago, was instantly filled with dark clouds, rolling and swirling.

Xuanyuan Rong and the others' expressions changed slightly, and they were vaguely worried about Xuanyuan Ao. Seeing this, Chengfeng showed a hint of satisfaction on his face.

Xuanyuan Ao seemed unaware of the enormous power contained in Chengfeng's move. He curled up into a ball and shot towards the lightning like a cannonball.

"boom--"

The surging forces collided, stirring up a curtain-like wave of air that shook Chengfeng's chest like a heavy hammer. Chengfeng glared at Xuanyuan Ao in anger, barely exchanging a few moves with him before being forced back.

At this moment, a figure flew out from the woods.

Chengfeng was overjoyed and dodged to the side of the person who came. "Break the waves!"

"You—" Xi Lang glanced at him, paused, looked him up and down, and let out a sigh. "I'm glad you're okay. Why did you get into a fight with the Xuanyuan family head?"

Chengfeng patted the ginseng doll on his waist and said, "I found something good, so..."

Xi Lang stood in front of him and looked at Xuanyuan Ao.

Polang's position was clear, and Xuanyuan Ao had no intention of wasting words. He used both hands to strike out with the Eight Palms. The palm wind was invisible but visible, forming a great momentum to attack from both sides.

Xi Lang's body was as fast as a dragon, almost touching the ground. He dodged nimbly and turned around to attack Xuanyuan Ao with a palm.

The two men had equal cultivation levels and the fight was a close one.

Chengfeng stood behind Xi Lang, holding the ginseng doll's head with his left hand, staring at the two fighting people, and raised his right palm several times as if to attack and then put it down.

Suddenly, as if he had made up his mind, he flashed behind Xi Lang, condensed a ball of energy in his right palm, and slapped it violently on Xi Lang's back.

Xi Lang turned around in time, and when he used his right palm to defend against Xuanyuan Ao's attack, his left palm happened to face Chengfeng's palm force.

This palm strike used 80% of its strength. Chengfeng's entire arm shook violently. Feeling that his arm was about to break, he quickly retracted it, glaring at Xi Lang angrily, gritting his teeth and saying, "You, you have been guarding against me!"

Xuanyuan Ao was a little confused.

"Who are you!" Xi Lang shouted.

Chengfeng said angrily, "Polang, you forgot about our relationship after seeing the ginseng doll, didn't you? Your feelings for me are so fragile! Next time we see each other, I won't let you go!"

After saying that, he flew away on the wind.

Xi Lang was about to chase after him, but Xuanyuan Ao stopped him.

"Polang, you must give this family master an explanation."

Xi Lang neutralized his attack and explained, "Master Xuanyuan, he is not Chengfeng—"

Xuanyuan Ao interrupted him and said in a deep voice, "This family head will not believe your one-sided statement. The rest of you should chase after him immediately!"

"yes!"

Chengfeng, on the other hand, had been fleeing so quickly that he didn't notice anyone following him. He breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed his arm, injured by Xi Lang. The pain eased slightly after his energy flowed up and down the meridians in his arm a few times. He glanced up and saw a familiar figure approaching along the mountain path.

"Oh, what a coincidence." Chengfeng sneered, looked around, tied the ginseng doll to the branch of an evergreen pine tree, and took out a playing card-sized iron sheet from his arms, and stuck it on the ginseng doll. The ginseng doll immediately became invisible.

Then, Chengfeng jumped out of the bushes.

A man wearing the same clothes as Gu Juan appeared in front of him. When he saw his face clearly, he was shocked but also had a sudden realization, "Gu Haojie, you are really still alive."

"Didn't expect that?" Gu Haojie sneered, but he didn't rush to fight with Gu Juan.

Gu Juan was very calm, and at this moment, his expression was still as calm as before. "Do you know who I am?"

Gu Haojie gritted his teeth, "Gu, Juan."

Gu Juan looked at him carefully for a long time, and said uncertainly: "Are you really Gu Haojie? You have changed a lot..." This person looked exactly like Gu Haojie, and his aura was similar, but there was an indescribable weirdness about him.

Gu Haojie smiled strangely, "Haven't you changed a lot too? Gu Juan, do you know? I wish you were dead!" As he said that, he attacked Gu Juan with murderous intent.

After Gu Juan had killed Gu Haojie, the tension between them seemed certain to escalate. Gu Juan immediately channeled his inner energy, attacking Gu Haojie relentlessly. Just one palm strike gave him a rough idea of ​​Gu Haojie's strength. Gu Haojie must have experienced some extraordinary experiences after his "death," indicating a high level of cultivation. Gu Juan didn't hesitate, his inner energy surging relentlessly through his palms. With each exchange of blows, a muffled thud echoed. Dead branches and leaves were swept through the air by the fierce wind, and murderous intent raged like a biting cold wind.

"Chengfeng!" Xi Lang rushed over.

When Gu Haojie heard the voice, his expression changed instantly, becoming a face exactly the same as Chengfeng's.

Gu Juan was shocked. Gu Haojie's move was too powerful. He even felt that the aura on his body was eighty percent similar to his own. He immediately shouted to Xi Lang, "He's fake!"

Gu Haojie shouted at the same time as him, and his expression and posture were no different from Gu Juan's, as if they were looking in the mirror.

Gu Juan's heart suddenly sank, and his breathing became rapid. Could Xi Lang recognize him? He couldn't help but look at Gu Haojie, who was also looking at Xi Lang nervously! At this moment, murderous intent filled Gu Juan's mind. He seemed to see that Gu Haojie had taken away his lover. His eyes were bloodshot, and he attacked Gu Haojie fiercely.

Gu Haojie's reaction was exactly the same as Gu Juan's, and he attacked Gu Juan without showing any weakness.

Xi Lang's expression was cold as he flew over.

Gu Juan saw him rushing towards Gu Haojie, his heart sinking to the bottom. He was also stomped on, and for a moment, he almost lost all hope. The next second, he saw Xi Lang slap Gu Haojie without hesitation, and the palm landed on Gu Haojie's chest, causing him to groan.

Gu Haojie held up Chengfeng's face and stared at Xi Lang in disbelief, his eyes filled with pain. "Xi Lang! You hit me! You actually hit me! Can't you recognize me?"

Xi Lang stood beside Gu Juan, holding his cold hand, and looked at Gu Haojie indifferently, "Of course I wouldn't fail to recognize my lover. Your face is exactly the same as Chengfeng's, even the position of the small mole under your right eyebrow is exactly the same. Even your aura is eighty percent similar to his, but your eyes and the feeling you give me are both strangers."

Gu Juan's heart fluttered back to his senses, and he gripped Xi Lang's hand tightly. His eyes welled up, and he felt like crying and laughing at the same time. He shouldn't have doubted Xi Lang. How could Xi Lang not recognize him? Just like he would never mistake Xi Lang. They were lovers, etched into each other's bones.

"I don't believe it!" Gu Haojie screamed like crazy.

Xi Lang mocked, "No matter how much you change your face, you can't change the gloom in your aura. When I saw you and Xuanyuan Ao fighting, I did think you were Xiao Juan at first glance, but after a second glance, I was sure you weren't. It's just that your aura is too similar to Xiao Juan's, which makes people doubt your intentions, so I didn't expose you immediately. I didn't expect that you would lose your temper first."

Gu Haojie panted heavily, hatred burning in his eyes like fire. He had used Chengfeng's identity to steal the ginseng doll in order to frame Gu Juan, but he hadn't anticipated encountering Xi Lang. He had attacked Xi Lang because he wanted to kill him and cause Gu Juan pain, but he hadn't expected Xi Lang to not fall for it!

"Who are you?" Xi Lang asked coldly.

Gu Juan said: "He is Gu Haojie."

Gu Haojie laughed heartily, his face first changing to Gu Haojie's, then to Xuanyuan Qing's, and he asked slowly, "Gu Juan, are you really sure I'm Gu Haojie? Hmm?"

Gu Juan's expression grew grave. Something was wrong! When this person's face was Cheng Feng's, his aura was eighty percent like his; when his face was Gu Haojie's, his aura was eighty percent like Gu Haojie's; when his face was Xuanyuan Qing's, his aura was also eighty percent similar to the Xuanyuan Qing he had met before. Who was he, exactly? Even the most sophisticated disguise couldn't achieve this level of skill.
