Seeing that the time was right, Nangong Zheng said to Gu Sheng: "Gu Sheng, Zi Yue's body still needs to use divine power to stimulate the sea of ​​suffering, so that she can fully recover. I plan to do the final healing for her myself, you stay outside the house to protect her."

"Yes."

Gu Sheng responded, nodded to Ji Ziyue, and walked out of the house.

As soon as Gu Sheng walked out of the house, he felt a strong divine power coming from inside the house.

He turned his head and glanced.

I saw Nangong was trying his best to heal Ji Ziyue's injuries and repair her shattered sea of ​​suffering.

Sensing this scene, Gu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.

"call……"

If Ji Ziyue hadn’t met Senior Nangong, who knows what would have happened to her.

Fortunately...good things always come to those who are lucky.

Gu Sheng's nerves just relaxed a little.

But at this moment, he suddenly noticed a strange figure.

"Ok?"

Gu Sheng turned his head and saw a boy about twelve or thirteen years old.

Gu Sheng's heart tightened and he walked towards the young man vigilantly.

"who are you?"

Gu Sheng asked in a deep voice.

At the same time, he secretly gathered his divine power and prepared to attack.

After all, Nangong is now recuperating with Ji Ziyue. It is a critical moment and there can be no mistakes.

On the other hand, the young man just smiled slightly, as if he didn't care at all about the fluctuations of divine power around him.

There was a hint of amusement in his eyes, and he did not answer Gu Sheng's question.

A hint of impatience flashed across Gu Sheng's brows, and he made an attacking gesture.

"Are you a hunter around here?"

Gu Sheng continued to ask.

The young man finally spoke, and responded in a clear voice: "Yes, I am the hunter around here."

Hearing this, Gu Sheng felt a little relieved, but he did not completely let down his guard.

"Then tell me, where is this place?"

Gu Sheng continued to ask questions.

"This is Mount Qixia in Jin State, a holy place for cultivation."

The young man said calmly.

Gu Sheng noticed that the other party's eyes never left the thatched hut.

But his answer was the same as what he knew, so he acquiesced to the boy's identity.

"Well, it's getting late, you should go back early."

Gu Sheng responded, then waved at him, urging him to leave as soon as possible.

However, the young man seemed not to have heard Gu Sheng's words and walked straight towards the thatched hut.

He walked lightly, as if he didn't take Gu Sheng seriously at all.

Seeing this, Gu Sheng hurriedly reached out to stop him.

"Stop, you can't go over there!"

There was still a faint smile on the boy's face, but when Gu Sheng was about to touch him, he suddenly attacked with such speed that it was almost impossible to see clearly.

"Shh!"

He just pushed lightly, and Gu Sheng felt a huge force coming.

In an instant, Gu Sheng flew backwards involuntarily and fell heavily to the ground.

"what!"

Gu Sheng was shocked. He didn't expect that this seemingly frail boy had such powerful strength.

He stood up quickly, and the divine power in his body started to work rapidly, trying to stop the boy again.

"Don't go any further, or I'll be rude to you!"

Gu Sheng warned.

At the same time, the divine power he summoned emitted bursts of golden light around his body.

The young man stopped and looked at Gu Sheng, his smile growing wider.

"Oh? How are you going to be rude?"

Gu Sheng didn't answer.

He gathered all his strength into his fist and rushed towards the boy.

A punch was thrown out with a sound of breaking through the air.

"boom!"

There was a glimmer of admiration in the boy's eyes.

But then he slightly tilted his body and easily avoided Gu Sheng's attack.

Then, he instantly stepped forward and gently slapped Gu Sheng on the chest.

Gu Sheng only felt a huge force coming at him, and he was knocked away again and fell heavily to the ground.

"Cough cough cough..."

This time, he coughed violently several times, and bright red blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.

"You are quite strong, but not strong enough to stop me."

The young man looked at Gu Sheng who was lying on the ground, with disdain in his tone.

After saying that, the young man continued walking towards the thatched hut.

"stop!"

Gu Sheng summoned his divine power and flew over.

The young man threw a punch.

Gu Sheng’s body slammed firmly against the door of the thatched hut.

"Crash!"

The powerful impact shattered the door of the house and large pieces of thatch fell off.

"You still have some use for me. I don't want to kill you."

As the young man spoke, he raised his hand slightly and waved it.

The roof of the thatched house was blown off.

"Brother Nangong, why don't you come out to see me?"

The young man suddenly spoke.

"Ok?"

Gu Sheng was stunned.

He didn't expect that this boy, who looked even younger than himself, would actually call Senior Nangong "brother".

If that's the case, shouldn't I call him uncle?
wrong!

There's definitely something wrong with this guy!

"How did you come?"

Nangong Zheng's voice came from the thatched hut that was submerged in the sky.

"Let me see you."

The young man said with a smile.

“Senior Nangong, you… you know him?”

Gu Sheng asked in disbelief.

"Yes, he is the Peacock King!"

Nangong Zheng replied.

"Ah? Peacock King?"

Gu Sheng's eyes widened in surprise.

He really didn't expect that the Peacock King who could massacre the Ji family was actually a child!
At this moment, a cold light suddenly flashed in the Peacock King's eyes.

He looked directly at Nangong Zheng who was treating Ji Ziyue's injuries.

"not good!"

Gu Sheng's heart tightened.

The Peacock King is so powerful that if he were to take action, both Nangong Zheng and Ji Ziyue would be in danger.

Gu Sheng didn't care about his injuries and suddenly flew up, trying to stop the Peacock King.

"Whoosh!"

A cold light flashed.

Before Gu Sheng could get close, he was hit by an invisible force.

He immediately flew backwards and hit a tree nearby heavily.

"Senior Nangong!"

Gu Sheng shouted with some effort.

Nangong Zheng's expression also became solemn.

Naturally, he knew something about the strength of this demon king.

If he continued to heal Ji Ziyue's injuries, he might not be able to withstand the attack of the Peacock King.

In desperation, Nangong Zheng could only stop healing.

"Zi Yue, your injuries are basically healed now. You need to practice diligently in the future."

Nangong Zheng instructed.

"Well, thank you, Senior Nangong."

Ji Ziyue nodded and said.

Seeing Nangong Zheng protecting Ji Ziyue like this, Peacock King asked in confusion: "Brother Nangong, why are you doing this? You care so much about the Ji family." "No reason, it's just a promise."

As Nangong Zheng spoke, he stood up and brushed off the dust on his body.

"Promise? What promise?"

The Peacock King asked in some confusion.

"I have promised the elders of the Ji family that I will take good care of the siblings Ji Ziyue and Ji Haoyue, so you know."

Nangong Zheng explained.

"Ha ha……"

Hearing this, the Peacock King couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Promise? What a promise."

The Peacock King's expression instantly turned gloomy, and his whole body was filled with cold murderous intent.

“King Kongque, why are you so obsessed with the Ji family?”

Nangong Zheng asked in a deep voice.

The Peacock King said coldly: "I will not let any of the Ji family go."

"why?"

Nangong Zheng asked.

He was obviously surprised by King Maurya's decision, as if there was some deep hatred between the two.

"You can ask him or her. They are both parties involved."

The Peacock King pointed at Gu Sheng beside him, and then pointed at Ji Ziyue with his chin.

Nangong Zheng was stunned by these words.

It seemed as if he had become a clown at this moment.

"Gu Sheng, what happened?"

Nangong Zheng asked with a slightly frown.

"A few months ago..."

Then, Gu Sheng told the story of how Ji Haoyue and the Ji family elders besieged Yan Ruyu, the descendant of the Demon Emperor.

Yan Ruyu, the heiress of the demon clan, the purpose of hunting her down is very simple.

It is to kill all the demons and leave no future troubles.

And now, as a powerful demon king, the Peacock King will naturally take crazy revenge for all the past events.

"How...how could this happen?"

Nangong Zheng hesitated slightly.

Seeing Nangong Zheng like this, Peacock King laughed and said, “Haha… Brother Nangong, do you still want to stop me?”

Nangong Zheng pondered for a moment, and his eyes gradually became firm.

"King Kongque, I know you are filled with hatred, but Nangong Zheng was entrusted by the Ji family to protect the two sons. I cannot betray my loyalty. Today, I must stop you."

Nangong Zheng said seriously.

When the Peacock King heard this, his anger grew even stronger.

"Hmph! Nangong Zheng, you are courting death!"

Before he finished speaking, the Peacock King's figure flashed.

His seemingly weak body shot towards Nangong Zheng like a bolt of lightning.

In an instant, powerful demonic power condensed into two huge black light beams, rushing straight towards Nangong Zheng.

Nangong Zheng had a solemn expression on his face, he formed seals with his hands, and a bright light shone around him.

Almost at the same time, layers of golden light shield surrounded him.

"boom!!!"

The two forces collided in the air, making a deafening roar.

The entire space trembled, sand and rocks flew everywhere, the sky was dark, as if the end of the world had come.

Gu Sheng and Ji Ziyue were watching from the side, and they felt an invisible sense of oppression that made it almost impossible for them to breathe.

"Gu Sheng, are you okay just now?"

Ji Ziyue asked softly.

"I'm okay."

Gu Sheng rubbed his chest and felt a sharp pain.

However, there doesn't seem to be any danger to his life now.

"Shh!"

As soon as Gu Sheng finished speaking, the intertwined power of Nangong Zheng and Peacock King suddenly generated new power and attacked Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng was unable to dodge and was hit by the light on his chest.

At the same time, his body involuntarily flew backwards more than ten meters away.

"Oh my god... am I so unlucky?"

Gu Sheng cursed secretly in his heart.

At this time, Ji Ziyue hurriedly flew over and hugged Gu Sheng in his arms, shouting anxiously: "Gu Sheng, Gu Sheng! How are you? Don't die! Don't!"

At this moment, Gu Sheng only felt that his body was out of control and he was in a trance.

Suddenly, Gu Sheng's body was touched by a force, and after breaking free from Ji Ziyue's restraints, he was suspended in the air.

At this moment, his heart was beating violently, as if something was about to burst out of his chest.

"Gu Sheng! Gu Sheng!"

Ji Ziyue shouted.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred.

A powerful force burst out from Gu Sheng's body.

At the same time, in his sea of ​​suffering, a heart emitting golden light slowly rose.

It exudes a powerful aura, which is the heart of the Demon Emperor.

"What! How did it...how did it come out?"

Gu Sheng looked at the heart in horror, his face full of confusion.

The Demon Emperor's heart spun several times in the air, then turned into a stream of light and flew straight to the horizon.

The Peacock King and Nangong Zheng were both stunned. They didn't expect that the Demon Emperor's heart was actually in Gu Sheng's body.

A hint of surprise flashed across the Peacock King's eyes, and then turned into ecstasy.

"The Demon Emperor's Heart! This is the most precious treasure of the demon race. I never thought it existed in your body!"

He immediately gave up the confrontation with Nangong Zheng, turned around, and prepared to chase in the direction where the Demon Emperor's Heart was flying.

Nangong Zheng frowned upon seeing this.

The importance of the Demon Emperor's Heart is self-evident. Once it falls into the hands of the Peacock King, it will probably bring greater disaster to the world.

He didn't even have time to catch his breath and followed closely behind, blocking the Peacock King's way.

On Gu Sheng's side, because he lost the Heart of the Demon Emperor, his body fell from the air and landed heavily on the ground.

He felt an unprecedented emptiness and powerlessness.

Ji Ziyue stayed by Gu Sheng's side, taking care of him.

"I must obtain the Demon Emperor's heart!"

A smug smile appeared on the Peacock King's face.

Then, he made seals with his hands and muttered something.

Then he displayed his unique skill - Stars Shining in the Blue Sky.

As the spell was chanted, the sky suddenly turned dark.

Countless stars twinkled in the sky, as if the entire universe was under his control.

The sky is filled with stars, and it is difficult to tell east, south, west and north.

Sand and rocks were flying everywhere, and there was chaos everywhere.

It’s like there’s an extra layer of blue sky!
Under the cover of this strange vision, the figure of the Peacock King became erratic.

When no one was paying attention, his speed suddenly increased, like a meteor streaking across the sky, chasing in the direction where the Demon Emperor's heart disappeared.

Nangong Zheng, as a powerful human, was confused by the strange vision, but he still had some skills.

He reacted quickly and locked onto the direction in which the Peacock King disappeared.

He knew that the Peacock King did this to confuse him so that he could take the opportunity to seize the Demon Emperor's heart.

Nangong Zheng took a deep breath, turned to Gu Sheng and said, "Gu Sheng, take care of Ji Ziyue first. I will go after the Peacock King. We can't let him get the Demon Emperor's heart."

“Well, Senior Nangong, be careful.”

Ji Ziyue replied first.

After saying that, Nangong Zheng's figure turned into a stream of light and followed the Peacock King.

As the two left, the strange phenomenon gradually dissipated and returned to its previous state.

Birdsong, flowers, breeze, insects chirping...

"Gu Sheng, come, sit up first"

Ji Ziyue planned to help Gu Sheng sit up.

Gu Sheng responded, and then was supported by Ji Ziyue to lean against a tree to rest.

"Haha... it's like searching for something but finding it is easy."

Just as Gu Sheng steadied himself, he heard someone laughing arrogantly not far away.

Gu Sheng and Ji Ziyue felt nervous and hurried to find the source of the sound.

But after looking around, I didn't see anyone.

"Hey! Two kids, where are you looking? We are here."

The voice came again.

Gu Sheng looked up and saw the nameless middle-aged cultivator standing on the clouds with a smug smile on his face. (End of this chapter)
