As the Old Hall Master shuffled into the grand hall, his cane seemed to encounter an immense resistance, making it nearly impossible for him to move forward despite his efforts.
Thud.
Hall Master.
Hall Master.
With the Old Hall Master collapsing to the ground, it took him a while to catch his breath. There was no one around to help him; everyone had left. Except for Shen Shixing, the Old Hall Master could never have imagined that the traitor from Universe Hall would be connected to someone from Cheng Zong. How could Shen Shixing have been among the elders who entered Universe Hall when it was established? How could that be possible?
When he realized this situation, a loud ringing filled the Old Hall Master's head, and his spiritual energy became blocked, making it difficult for him to move even an inch. Otherwise, with his Transcendence of the Integration Stage cultivation level, how could he have suddenly fallen?
"What happened to the Hall Master?"
The gentle voice of Universe Hall's steward, Gu Tang, broke through the chaos as he supported the Old Hall Master. Concern filled his tone. In Gu Tang's heart, the Old Hall Master was revered like a deity. From the moment he had known him, this seemingly frail old man had firmly controlled Universe Hall's direction, leading everyone step by step to their current state. What could possibly cause such a calm and composed elder to suffer such a grave injury?
"Everyone, listen to my orders! Enter Shadow Tower Forest! Capture Shen Shixing! Seal the demon beasts! Hurry!"
With a commanding shout from the Old Hall Master, all of Universe Hall's stewards surged into Shadow Tower Forest, marking the end of this Sky East Tournament.
At the same time, a blood-red number flashed in the front chamber, illuminating completely. In Shadow Tower Forest, a tremendous roar echoed, shaking all demon beasts. A crimson light dyed the entire Chang Kong red, and within Shadow Tower Forest, what was once a grayish-red world transformed into a scene reminiscent of a Blood Sea. The number twenty-one Blood Sea Beast had seemingly broken free from its seal.
The green blood of the beast stained Gu Ping and Ying Zhan from head to toe as they leaned against the base of the stone tower, gasping for breath. They were trying to regulate their breathing after being surrounded by a tide of beasts for the second time in a day and a half. Each time, they had barely managed to break through the encirclement thanks to the medicine provided by Gu Ping, but they could hardly rest before being surrounded again. If it weren't for that piercing roar and the blood-soaked transformation of Chang Kong, they would have truly reached their limit.
Ye Youluo must have released the top one hundred Great Demons sealed within Talin. Unlike the smaller beasts pursuing them, none of those were demon kings, and there were hardly any Demon Generals among them. The top one hundred Great Demons were at least Integration Stage demon kings, with some even being Mahayana Stage Demon Emperors. They lacked the power to contend with such forces. It was time to leave; there was no point in holding on any longer.
Gu Ping understood that what Ying Zhan said was true, but he had promised Jiang Anbo that he would not let Ye Youluo destroy the foundation of Tiandong City. Could he really just give up?
"I'll go first," he said, seeking out Ye Youluo while the demon king was still present. The beasts were momentarily inactive, and he needed to deal with Ye Youluo; it had already been delayed too long.
He didn't want to die; he just wanted to avoid a direct confrontation.
"Let’s not be so blunt about it. I’ll go first. Everyone should gather at Cosmic Plaza and wait for me. I believe that even if I face Bu Luo, I can still escape."
Ying Zhan did not expect the usually calm Gu Ping to be so resolute this time. He knew that no matter what he said, he couldn't stop Gu Ping; the ring activated its teleportation array.
"If I die, he'll bring them to collect my body."
"Don't worry; I won't give you that chance."
With a flash of red light, Ying Zhan vanished from sight. Gu Ping silently put away his smile. Jie Donglai would witness the battle between him and Ye Youluo without anyone else watching, which meant he could unleash his full strength without worrying about exposing his identity.
Gu Ping had to admit that Ye Youluo was indeed strong. Whether it was against Hong Yulong or Sima Wuduan, or even against the Mountain Giant, Ye Youluo had not fought with all his might; instead, he appeared remarkably composed. That might have been the strongest opponent Gu Ping had ever faced and also the most cunning adversary. If not for interference from others, Gu Ping feared he would have had no chance at all.
Both were geniuses capable of fighting above their level, yet there was a significant gap in their realms. Without the two major foundations supporting him, Gu Ping would undoubtedly be defeated.
He knew those things, all of them, but he could not retreat any further; there was no way for him to distance himself from that moment.
Just as Liu Lao Jiu said, I am not a good person, at least not in his eyes.
