The sound came from above.
Forgetting about the monsters they were hunting, everyone instinctively looked up and saw Sheng Ning, whom Gu Zhuo had been searching for, flying over their heads.
Just in time!
Gu Zhuo was furious and wanted to find someone to vent his anger on.
If Sheng Ning had come out earlier, he might have let her off the hook.
She was just unlucky and ran into him when he was angry.
Gu Zhuo's eyes were dark and gloomy. When he saw Sheng Ning coming towards him, he immediately raised his sword, ready to stab her through the shoulder.
He still remembers how Sheng Ning injured him yesterday in front of so many people while holding a Gatling gun.
Just when he thought Sheng Ning would inevitably run into his sword, he saw her turn around and run to the tree beside him.
Sheng Ning covered his mouth and nose with his hands and stepped on the modified small landmines that he had buried earlier.
With a soft 'bong', a shallow crater was blasted into the ground.
When Gu Zhuo saw this scene, his eyelids twitched violently.
He recalled the day Sheng Ning and Yu Ye blew up the gate of the Taixu Sect.
I thought she was going to use the same trick again, but this time she only created a shallow pit.
A cold smile curled at the corner of his lips, and Gu Zhuo scoffed, "That's it? What are you planning to blow up this time?"
"Sheng Ning, you really aren't afraid of death."
It must be said that Sheng Ning's courage is commendable. With so many Taixu Sect disciples standing in front of her, she did not show the slightest fear.
Perhaps she was too confident in her secret weapon.
Sheng Ning had planted a lot of modified small landmines here, and when she heard what Gu Zhuo said, she took the opportunity to pretend to be innocent.
"Oh no, why did my little landmine stop working?"
As she spoke, she appeared to be backing down, but in reality, she circled around Gu Zhuo and the others.
Seeing that she was scared, Gu Zhuo couldn't help but smile.
The sword in his hand rang out in response to its master's anger.
He curled his lips into a smile, his disdain evident in his eyes. "I can forgive you for hurting me yesterday, but you must kneel down, kowtow to me, and apologize before coming back to Taixu with me..."
Gu Zhuo didn't continue speaking.
A sudden, sharp pain in his lower abdomen made him turn pale for a moment.
Looking at Shi Yueyao and the other disciples beside him, they were just as pale as he was, clutching their lower abdomens, looking as if they had been poisoned.
Gu Zhuo's already pale face turned even more ashen, and he finally realized that Sheng Ning's little trick just now was not meant to blow them up.
She poisoned them!
Raising his natal sword, Gu Zhuo gritted his teeth and endured the pain, raising the sword at Sheng Ning once more, "You poisoned me!"
At this moment, Sheng Ning had already stopped what she was doing.
She tossed the modified landmine up and down, her small face, only half of which was visible, still displaying that innocent expression. "Senior Brother Gu, what are you talking about? I am no match for you in ability, and I don't outnumber you either."
"Besides, how could a piece of trash like me poison Senior Brother Gu and the others?"
"I just added some croton powder to your food," Sheng Ning said with a smile.
absurd!
Gu Zhuo gritted his teeth, feeling the cramping pain in his lower abdomen becoming increasingly severe, which made him gasp.
Unexpectedly, the croton powder in the air had not completely dissipated.
With that one breath, all the invisible powder rushed into his body.
The pain in my lower abdomen intensified, and I could hear gurgling sounds coming from my stomach from time to time.
Gu Zhuo and the others were all cultivators, and all of them were in the Foundation Establishment stage. They had already begun to abstain from grains and no longer had the most basic need for excretion.
Sheng Ning chose this moment because she didn't want to see a group of cultivators clutching their stomachs with one hand and their buttocks with the other, screaming and incontinent.
Just imagining that scene was enough to keep her from eating for three days.
Gu Zhuo and the others did not have that kind of need, but their physical structure was still the same as that of ordinary people.
Before long, a series of gas release sounds rang out within the area belonging to the Taixu Sect.
The cultivators who were close to the Taixu Sect area turned their heads upon hearing the sound, their faces filled with confusion.
"What happened? Was it an earthquake?"
A cultivator hunting demonic beasts nearby shook his head, "Perhaps the force of the demonic beasts stomping on the ground is too heavy... Damn, it stinks!"
Throughout history, no cultivator who participated in the monster frenzy has ever experienced such an occasion.
They were happily hunting monsters when a stench started wafting from afar...
"That smell is coming from the direction of the Taixu Sect, right? What did those people eat? It smells so strong!"
"Yue... Didn't Foundation Establishment cultivators already abstain from grains? Did they somehow manage to get in touch with the demonic beasts...?"
"Kill them quickly, kill them all, and run! This smell is burning my eyes!"
Originally, this smell would not have spread to other areas.
Who would have thought that a gust of wind would come at that moment?
Sheng Ning stood still, watching Gu Zhuo walk towards him with his backside covered and a sword in one hand, gritting his teeth.
During this time, he had to stop and rest for a while because of intestinal cramps. After the gas in his body was expelled, he would approach Sheng Ning with a dark face.
Sheng Ning wasn't stupid; she just stood there and let Gu Zhuo kill her.
Besides, she came with a mission in the afternoon.
"Senior brother, it's time to make our move!"
Seeing Sheng Ning call out to the tree, Gu Zhuo looked up and saw Yu Ye fly down from the tree.
The other person's face was covered with a cloth, revealing only a pair of cunning eyes, which made Gu Zhuo grip the sword even tighter.
"What are you trying to do?!"
Sheng Ning grinned, "Everyone in the world says that the Taixu Sect cares for the world, helps all living beings, and saves the dying and wounded. I have always had a heart that wants to cultivate. Senior Brother Gu is broad-minded, he will definitely help me, right?"
