However, Gu Changqing had no time to appreciate the scenery; his gaze was already fixed on a spot not far away, about ten meters away.
There were two people fighting. One of them was wearing Qingyun Sect clothes and was Zhang Hongxin's disciple. He was holding a large knife and his eyes were bloodshot. It seemed that he had used some kind of pill to temporarily boost his cultivation and was now unleashing his full power to fight the other person.
The other person was incredibly powerful, with three heads and six arms, a blue face and fangs; he didn't look human at all, but a monster.
Ignoring the fact that Changqing carefully sensed it, he discovered the secret.
This person is less a monster and more a person in monster's skin.
In Gu Changqing's perception, there was indeed a person inside the monster, and this person was emitting thick black smoke all over his body, as if he were one with the demonic energy, which was extremely terrifying and astonishing. This showed that this person's cultivation was extremely profound.
The green-faced, fanged thing on the outside was just a seductive shell. No one knew where they found such a harmful monster. It looked so cruel that you would think you had entered the world of Ultraman.
Gu Changqing also saw clearly that although the man was incredibly powerful, he hadn't used his full strength against Zhang Hongxin at all, and was simply dealing with him calmly.
Even though Zhang Hongxin had unleashed all his cultivation power, burning it to fight back desperately, he was still no match for a single, casual strike from him.
To put it bluntly, he's just teasing Zhang Hongxin, delaying his execution for some reason.
However, Zhang Hongxin seemed to have realized something, but he couldn't leave, so he could only fight back desperately.
Every time Zhang Hongxin tried to leave, he would be caught and brought back, but they wouldn't kill him. They would just let him resist until he was exhausted.
Upon seeing this, Gu Changqing quickly understood that this person's purpose was to get Zhang Hongxin to send a signal to the sect, so that some disciples would come to the rescue. At that time, this demonic person could wipe out all those disciples in one fell swoop. What a vicious idea!
Unfortunately, this time it was me who came. I am such a powerful person, fearless and a powerful Immortal Emperor with more than ten levels of cultivation. I can kill this demonic cultivator with a single palm strike.
It was as easy as swatting an ant.
Thinking of this, Gu Changqing flicked his finger, using it as a sword. A burst of sword energy shot out, separating Zhang Hongxin's broadsword. Instantly, a palm strike sent Zhang Hongxin crashing into a tree.
Then, Gu Changqing flicked his sleeve and said calmly, "Fellow Daoist, do you have some kind of grudge against my Qingyun Sect, or has my Qingyun Sect offended you? Why are you attacking my sect's disciples?"
Zhang Hongxin was overjoyed when he saw the people from the sect arrive.
But the next moment he became worried, his eyes filled with fear, and his mouth opened and closed as if he wanted to tell Gu Changqing to run away quickly. But when the words were about to come out, Zhang Hongxin felt that Gu Changqing seemed unable to escape.
Because you must know that the demonic path is extremely powerful; coming here is tantamount to suicide.
The demonic cultivator was overjoyed to see Gu Changqing and Jiang Qingcheng arrive. He glanced at them casually and said to Gu Changqing with a smile:
"Hehe, I knew the Qingyun Sect would send someone. This way, our Youming Dao Sect's plan will not have been in vain. Hehe, it seems the sect leader was right. As long as I hold one person off here, their chief will definitely come. Hehe, this is great."
However, when he got to the last sentence, for some reason, the demonic cultivator's expression suddenly stiffened, and he said, "No, you're not Wang Kang, who are you?"
As far as he knew, wasn't Wang Kang the chief of the Qingyun Sect? When did he change people? When did that piece of trash Wang Kang get knocked down? If this person knocked Wang Kang down, then maybe he can slap him to death too.
His previously calm expression froze instantly, as if he had witnessed something extreme.
Gu Changqing scanned the area with his divine sense and discovered that the person was only at the Dharma Aspect Realm. Moreover, things seemed to be as he had predicted; the person was from the Netherworld Dao Sect, one of the six major demonic sects. It seemed that they had already taken action.
And this plan was just as they had guessed. They wanted to lure out some of the sect's most capable fighters, kill them first, and deal with the rest when the general offensive was launched.
However, things have taken a dramatic turn, and instead of Wang Kang, it has attracted his own attention. Now, he is unsure of what to do.
"You guessed right, Wang Kang is no longer the chief. But do you need to see him for something?" Gu Changqing said with a slight smile.
The demonic cultivator's eyes darted around, and he said, "I have something to discuss with him. Tell him to come over quickly. Also, who are you, and why are you the one who came this time?"
As far as he knew, it should have been Wang Kang who came. Damn, what's wrong with this guy? Has the plan changed?
"You don't need to know who I am. You just need to know that I am incredibly powerful. Now I'm giving you a chance to tell me your whole plan. Otherwise, I'll make you wish you were dead."
Gu Changqing said in a serious tone that a mere Dharma Aspect Realm cultivator could be killed with a single slap, and he didn't take him seriously at all, nor was he worthy of his attention.
The demonic cultivator didn't answer Gu Changqing. He grinned, and suddenly with a snap, the beast skin on his body tore apart, splitting in two and flying to the left and right.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Changqing, Jiang Qingcheng, and Zhang Hongxin saw a demonic cultivator dressed in black robes and holding a black whisk appear before them.
The demonic cultivator's face was incredibly black, as black as coal from a deep mountain, and the whisk in his hand was as black as coal dust. His body was surging with stubborn demonic energy, exuding immense pressure and extraordinary power. Moreover, his cultivation level suddenly changed, advancing from the Dharma Aspect Realm to the True King Realm.
Zhang Hongxin's eyes narrowed, a hint of fear in them.
However, Gu Changqing remained calm and composed throughout, even glancing at the sky, hands behind his back, looking extremely relaxed, as if he were on vacation.
Jiang Qingcheng was the same, extremely relaxed.
This puzzled the demonic cultivator. He never expected that even when he unleashed his true power, this person would remain so relaxed. What was going on? Did their cultivation level exceed his own?
The demonic cultivator could hardly believe his eyes, let alone his own guess. If the other party was more powerful than him, then his actions were tantamount to courting death.
But now that things have come to this, he can't think about it anymore; he can only bite the bullet and go for it.
