Chapter 177: Divine Beast

"Let me go."

At this time, Gu Yun twisted her body, barely raised her head, her eyes red.

Zhongyu hurried to support her and said, "Now that Wu Guang has entered the city, there is no chance for the Gu Kingdom. You have been hit hard by someone else and can't even stand steadily. What's the point of going back?"

Gu Yun gnashed her teeth: "I'm going to kill Gu Wan!"

Jiang Shan said: "He has been turned into meat paste, and I stepped on him to death."

Then he said, "In your current condition, going back will not help. It is better to stay hidden and protect yourself. Otherwise, you will be caught and threatened to kill your father."

"Besides, we are already more than 4,000 miles away from Gucheng. I can't turn around and send you back. You can't go back by yourself in your current condition. If I let you go down now, you will be eaten by wild beasts in the mountains and wilds."

Gu Yun was stunned and speechless.

Jiang Shan said to Zhong Yu, "I have a splitting headache and need to rest and recuperate. Just follow the road and call me if you need to turn or stop."

Zhong Yu nodded and said, "Okay, you should rest first."

Jiang Shan walked out of the main cabin and came to the lounge. He sat cross-legged and practiced the Nine Cauldrons Mysterious Art.

Zhong Yu helped Gu Yun sit on the chair, and he himself sat down on the ground, sighing: "If the general had listened to Jiang Shan's words, he wouldn't be in this situation today."

He said: "Jiang Shan is wise and knew that Gu Wan was a trouble. If the general had listened to him and made preparations earlier, how could Wu Guang have easily reached the royal city?"

Gu Yun looked gloomy and said nothing.

Zhong Yu shook his head: "It is irreversible now. Gu Wan betrayed his country and family, and died without a complete body. This is his fate."

Gu Yun gritted her teeth and said, "Gu Wan is unworthy of being a human son. He is extremely hateful. Even if he is cut into pieces, it cannot redeem his sins! Now the royal city is about to fall, and the king's plan has come to nothing. I really don't know what will happen to my father next!"

Zhong Yu said: "If the royal city collapses, the Danshui camp will be shaken. Even if the general uses all his tricks, he cannot save the defeat."

He was deeply worried and said, "Wu Guang was a violent man. After he destroyed Kunwu, he captured all the people of Kunwu as slaves, whipped them to build altars, and used them for blood sacrifices. I am afraid that the people of Gu will also follow the same fate as Kunwu."

Gu Yun's face turned pale.

She gritted her teeth and said, "If it weren't for Gu Wan, the king would have summoned all the witches to plot against the heavenly origin, shake the earth's power, and draw on the power of the vast land of Gu to resist Wu Guang. The mission would have been accomplished."

Zhong Yu sighed again, "Jiang Shan told me before that if Gu Wan colluded with Wu Guang and led Wu Guang's elite troops to the royal city, Gu would be attacked both inside and outside the country. At that time, Jue refuted him, but he said that if Wu Guang came in person, who could resist him? I didn't expect that his words would come true."

Gu Yun murmured and sighed for a long time: "I regret not listening to Jiang Shan's advice!"

At this moment, the water droplet aircraft issued a beeping alarm, and the intelligent program water droplets reminded one after another: "It is about to be attacked! It is about to be attacked!"

But in the vast sky, a huge fist mark, as clear as a clenched fist, suddenly crossed thousands of miles of sky, locked onto the water droplet aircraft flying at a hundred times the speed of sound, and punched over.

The water droplet tried to dodge urgently, but failed to avoid it. It was hit on the tail by the fist. The pointed tail disintegrated instantly, and the remaining main body skeleton collapsed, falling from the sky in fire and thick smoke.

With a loud thud, the broken water droplet aircraft fell into a huge abyss between the mountains and slowly sank in the rolling water.

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Shan regained consciousness from the chaos.

He suddenly opened his eyes, turned over, and saw a long and mighty river with turbulent waves and an unknown width. He was standing on a huge reef by the river.

Jiang Shan felt confused. After a while, he sat down, in a trance.

At the moment when the water drop aircraft was attacked, he was concentrating on practicing the Nine Cauldrons Profound Art to nourish his mind, so he failed to wake up the moment the water drop intelligent program reminded him.

Then he was affected by the residual force of the fist, as if struck by lightning or hit on the forehead by a hammer, and instantly fainted.

At that moment, he had only one thought in his mind - it's over! Although he has woken up now and seems to be in good health, it is probably due to the strong recovery ability of the innate human race. But what about Zhongyu? Oh, and that Gu Yun? They are probably dead, right?

Jiang Shan sighed softly and remained silent.

He promised Zhongyu to send him to Nanchao, but he failed to do it in the end.

Although I have no regrets and have tried my best, I still cannot argue that I didn't do it.

At this moment, an old voice suddenly came into my ears: "Where did this young man come from, and why is he sighing here?"

Jiang Shan was startled and almost jumped up.

Then he saw ripples in the river water in front of the stone beneath him, and a bird-like head as huge as a mountain, with alternating red and black lines, slowly emerged from the water.

A faint breath came over him, but it was like a sharp knife pointing at his vital points, making Jiang Shan tense all over and his breathing stagnant.

Gradually, this huge monster emerged from the water.

But it turned out to be a giant turtle with a bird's head, a turtle's body, a snake's tail, alternating red and black lines all over its body, and a faint fluorescent light flowing all over its body! "Don't be nervous, young man."

The big turtle's bird-beak-like mouth opened and closed slightly, its huge, crystal-clear eyes flickered, and a kind look appeared on its face.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Same stone, same river, same young man; that young man before was not as nervous as you are."

Jiang Shan took a deep breath, suppressed his pounding heart, clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "I was momentarily intimidated by your aura. I'm sorry."

The big turtle laughed and said, "Oh, that's my fault."

Then the light around it faded away and its aura instantly became calm.

Then he asked, "What is your name, young man?"

Jiang Shan said: "Jiang Shan."

"Jiang Shan?" The big turtle thought for a while and said slowly: "Your surname is Jiang. Are you a descendant of Kuiwei?"

Kuiwei, Jiang Shan knew that Shennong was also called Kuiwei.

The surname Jiang comes from Shennong, so it is not wrong to say that Jiang Shan is a descendant of Shennong - in fact, in his world, all the people in the country are descendants of Kuiwei - descendants of Yan and Huang.

The big turtle said, then changed the subject: "But how can the descendants of Kuiwei be pure innate human beings?"

Jiang Shan was shocked. This old turtle actually saw through his true colors! Jiang Shan thought for a moment and said, "I don't know either."

He really didn't know why he became a congenital human.

Then he asked, “Who are you?”

The big turtle laughed and said, "I am a spinning turtle."

Spinning turtle!

Jiang Shan's eyes widened: "The first generation of spiral turtle?!"

With such a strong aura, Jiang Shan had to guess that it was not of the bloodline of the spiral turtle, but a real spiral turtle. Especially considering its appearance, it was exactly the same as the spiral turtle described in the Classic of Mountains and Seas! The big turtle exclaimed, "Right, my brother and I are the earliest spiral turtles."

The big turtle recalled: "My elder brother lived by the Luo River, and he also met a young man by the water. I admired him and often went by the water, and I also met a young man. You are the second one."
