Qin Wushuang laughed with a somewhat mocking tone: “Head Gao, how come you are not going in when you are right before the Archaic’s mountain gate? Don’t tell me that you are afraid to enter your own home?”
With an ashen face, Gao Yue exchanged a look with Bai Gujing as both of them knew that today’s situation was dire. If they could not break through this encirclement, most likely they would die in front their own sect’s mountain gate.
Once they had died, no one would have the strength to activate the protective barrier of the Archaic Mysteries Sect. There would only be one fate awaiting them—Total annihilation!
Feeling determined, Gao Yue glanced toward the cliff below the mountain road. He knew that regardless of going up or down, it would be hard to succeed in breaking through with their power. Once they had became trapped by the enemy, they would not get the chance to run for their life.
“Boss!” Suddenly, Bai Gujing’s tone became deeper, “Wolf in front and tiger behind us. The survival chance lies beneath this cliff. Only one of us can live. Go escape by the cliff and I will cover you!”
Inwardly, Gao Yue was shocked as he looked at Bai Guijing with a complicated look.
From Bai Gujing’s thin and weak face, and from his two deep eyes, he carried a determination that viewed death with equanimity: “I am set on my ideals. I was born for the Archaic and I will die for it. After the death of the Devil Boy, for sure no one could inherit my legacy. I only hope that you can continue to live and won’t let down my hopes! The Archaic Mysteries sect must not perish, never!”
Gao Yue nodded and wave of warmth filled his heart. He said emotionally: “Second, once I enter the mountain gate, I will initiate the protection barrier. Then, I will go to the Nine Palace to pick up Guiyun. That child Guiyun is our hope!”
Bai Gujing nodded: “Ok, I will count to three and you will jump into the cliff to escape. I will immediately initiate the Heavenly Ghost Confusion technique. As long as I can suppress their breathing, you will be able to escape!”
Tears filled Gao Yue’s tiger eyes: “Second, today we part ways, in the future we will see each other in the afterlife. We will be able to face our ancestors with pride!”
As they were whispering, Qin Wushuang was thinking up ideas as he said to Bao Bao: “Bao Bao, if I’ve guessed correctly, they will definitely jump down from this cliff to fight for a chance of survival. You know what to do, right?”
There was a trace of arrogance in Bao Bao’s tone: “They are digging their own grave to compete with me in climbing the cliff!”
“Ok, at that time you will be in charge of the cliff. Don’t worry about anything that happens on this road.” Qin Wushuang ordered.
Bai Gujing cried out lightly. Suddenly, he waved the staff in his hand and sent out a wave of dark clouds. Instantly, dark clouds and mists filled the surrounding area.
From the mist, suddenly, different strange sounds emerged that sounded like the mournful cry of a ghost. Instantly, the entire mountain valley darkened!
When the cold wind blew, different ghostly shadows continued to fly out and spread to both sides of the mountain road with threatening gestures.
Qin Wushuang fixed his gaze and felt somewhat strange inwardly: “What demonic trick is this?”
With his knowledge of this world, there were only different powerful martial techniques and such demonic tricks have never appeared. Of course, he felt somewhat surprised when he saw Bai Gujing’s method.
He shouted in a low voice: “Bao Bao, don’t get distracted!”
Bao Bao scrambled onto the cliff and his laughter came from the sky: “Boss, as you expected!”
Inwardly, Qin Wushuang had an idea as he waved the Fury Dragon Soul whip. Instantly, a bloody red light shot out and moved to wrap that cold wind.
As soon as he waved the whip, as if a giant hand had cleared the mist, it swept this dark cloud partially. Qin Wushuang charged in quickly and his long whip had already arrived before Bai Gujing.
Bai Gujing gave an eerie laugh: “I’m going to fight to death!”
In the middle of his words, this Bai Gujing did not evade and turned his body into a wave of shadows. He raised his staff and smashed towards that whip.
Qin Wushuang shouted coldly: “You are too confident!”
Bai Gujing withdrew his shadow and in the next moment, he let go of the staff. The staff went with the wind and turned into tens and thousands of bones of the dead. Like a sharp combat knife, it went to shoot towards at Qin Wushuang with tremendous force.
This sudden attack had taken Qin Wushuang by surprise. He rolled the Fury Dragon Soul whip before his chest. In three continuous movements, he formed rings of spiritual defense. This defense circle kept widening and engulfed all that white bones with a ferocious mouth of a beast of prey.
Although that white bone attack came swift and fast, once it entered this defense circle, it had melted as if ice cones had entered the stove. Instantly, it melted into a cloud of dust.
Bai Gujing was shocked as he jumped up and tried to jump down toward the deep abyss.
Qin Wushuang shouted: “Where are you going?”
He extended the Fury Dragon Soul and the ten metre long whip enlarged itself by a factor of ten. Like a long python, it wrapped Bai Gujing’s tiny body completely.
Qin Wushuang followed the momentum and smashed the whip towards the left mountain side. With a boom, a deep hole had appeared on the wall of the mountain as the cliff face caved in. On the other hand, blood gushed out of Bai Gujing and he was powerless to resist.
Qin Wushuang initiated his power and the Power of Deep North entered the body of Bai Gujing through the Fury Dragon Soul whip. Bai Gujing only felt as if a mosquito had stabbed his dantian and he became paralyzed. His entire sea of spiritual Qi was draining out at a rapid speed.
Terror-stricken, Bai Gujing cried out miserably.
“Head Bai, on that day, I used this method to kill Zhu Dazhong. Now, I will use the same method to deal with you and let you and your friend reunite with each other. Also, I am the one that killed your beloved disciple, Devil Boy.”
Qin Wushuang said with a leisurely tone. However, his words had almost caused Bai Gujing to become unconscious as he cried out: “Just who are you?”
“You want to know?” Qin Wushuang asked with a cold smile.
“I will not close my eyes until I know who you are!” Bai Gujing sighed.
Qin Wushuang nodded and tightened the Fury Dragon Soul around Bai Gujing’s entire body. When he made sure that he could not even speak, he said in a low voice: “Listen well, my name has never changed, I am Qin Wushuang of the Stargaze Palace!”
Suddenly, Bai Gujing’s deeply sunken eyes popped out of his head like the eyes of a dead fish. His throat trembled as he was unable to utter a single sound, no matter how much he tried.
His pair of dried and skinny arms waved with desperation. Slowly, he ceased all movements.
Qin Wushuang dropped Bai Gujing’s corpse down the cliff. He sighed: “Since you are a grandmaster of your generation, it’s a good place for your to die below the cliff of the Archaic Mysteries sect’s mountain gate!”
At this time, Bao Bao let out a long whistle as he climbed up swiftly from the bottom of the cliff. He said joyfully: “Boss, this guy knows how to escape, it took me a lot of time.”
Bao Bao held Gao Yue in his hand. This time, strangely, Bao Bao did not consume Gao Yue’s dantian. Instead, he brought a living person before Qin Wushuang. He knew that this person was the head of the Archaic sect and it would be up to his boss on how to deal with him.
Qin Wushuang glanced at Gao Yue coldly: “Head Gao, how do you feel?”
Gao Yue showed an ashen face: “Just kill me!”
Qin Wushuang laughed coolly: “Kill you? That will happen eventually. Before that, I do want you to witness how I am going to destroy your Archaic mountain gate!”
Then, he said to Bao Bao and the Purple Flame Electric beast: “Let’s go!”
Gao Yue roared with despair: “What grudge do you have with my sect, what did my Archaic do to you? You’ve killed my disciples and now you’re going to destroy my mountain gate!”
“Grudge?” Qin Wushuang kept smiling coldly, “Your Archaic colluded with the Nine Palace and invaded the Stargaze Palace. That is a deep and bloody grudge! Gao Yue, did you ever think that retribution would ever come when you and Zhao Heng caused a ruckus at the Stargaze Palace? When you colluded and made the connection with the Nine Palace to attack us, did you ever think about the day of reckoning?”
Gao Yue’s expression changed drastically as his pupils shrank rapidly: “You…who are you?”
Qin Wushuang sealed Gao Yue’s mute acupoint: “Who am I? I am Qin Wushuang…of the Stargaze Palace!”
As if struck by lightning, Gao Yue opened his mouth widely and could not spit out a word. He looked at Qin Wushuang with an expression of despair as fear, terror, and disbelief filled his eyes.
“Qin Wushuang…Stargaze Palace?” Countless doubts filled Gao Yue’s mind, “How was it possible? When did the Stargaze become this strong? Although this Qin Wushuang performed well in the Friendly Competition, he was only a normal Middle Stage! How did he train those two Spiritual beasts at the Perfect stage? How was he able to defeat all those elite warriors from the Nine Palace?”
The Purple Flame Electric Beast roared and went up to the mountain gate of the Archaic Mysteries sect as the first.
As if dragging a dead animal, Qin Wushuang wrapped Gao Yue within his Fury Dragon Soul whip behind him. He started shouting with his full power: “Everyone of the Archaic sect, listen well! All Five Heads of the Archaic have all died. All your elite warriors have been annihilated. Today, I have come to tear down your mountain gate! Anyone who resists will be annihilated! Those who wish to live, gather before the square of the mountain gate in ten seconds! You will be allowed to live if you destroy your own dantian. Or else, when the mountain gate goes down, it will also be your turn to be buried with it!”
From Qin Wushuang’s tone, it was cold and there was not a hint of mercy.
When facing the enemy, Qin Wushuang only had one principle and that was to be merciless. To show mercy to the enemy meant torturing himself. Qin Wushuang had deeply understood this principle since he had suffered from it before.
“I will repeat once more, in ten seconds, all those who do not come to the square will be killed!” Qin Wushang opened his mouth to speak again and shouted, “You two, prepare to tear down the mountain gate!”
When Gao Yue heard his words, his entire body trembled and he also cried out. Would the mountain gate of the Archaic Mysteries sect really be destroyed? Was the Archaic sect, that had stood for a few thousand of years, going to vanish?
Currently, Gao Yue was so regretful that his intestines might turn green. He finally realized that he was the one that had invited this disaster! If he had not colluded with the Nine Palace, even if the Stargaze had taken over the east, they would not have destroyed his Archaic and all their legacy!
“One…”
“Two…”
Qin Wushuang counted quietly with a merciless tone. And like the rats in a burning house, the inside of the Archaic Mysteries sect was already in chaos. Besides panicking, these people had no other thoughts.
