Gu Sheng found a big rock to sit on and observed the surrounding situation.

The field of vision here is wide, and even if a rabbit appears within a hundred meters, it can be discovered in time.

After sitting down, Gu Sheng secretly mobilized his divine power and released his spiritual sense to detect changes in the surrounding situation.

Gu Sheng sat on a big rock and glanced around.

He knew that now was the most critical moment.

Then, Gu Sheng secretly mobilized the divine power in his body and released his spiritual consciousness.

The spiritual consciousness released by Gu Sheng, who had recovered as before, was like an invisible net, covering an area of ​​100 meters around him.

Within this range, any slight movement cannot escape his perception.

At this moment, Gu Sheng's consciousness suddenly captured three weak power fluctuations.

These three forces seem to be approaching quietly.

If it weren’t for his spiritual sense, Gu Sheng would not have known about these three forces.

Fortunately, their actions were completely exposed by Gu Sheng's powerful spiritual sense.

Gu Sheng immediately locked onto the positions of these three forces, then concentrated his spiritual consciousness and attacked the weakest one among them.

"Shh!"

His spiritual consciousness was like a sharp sword, piercing the opponent straight away.

The opponent obviously did not expect Gu Sheng to have such a powerful spiritual sense. He was caught off guard for a moment, and his spiritual sense was in chaos after being attacked.

Soon, this spiritual consciousness dissipated.

At the same time, as this divine consciousness dissipated, the other two forces also quickly retreated and disappeared into the barren mountains.

Gu Sheng withdrew his spiritual sense and stared closely at the direction where the spiritual sense disappeared.

He knew that the other party would not give up easily.

All we have to do now is wait quietly.

Sure enough, not long after, three figures appeared silently in Gu Sheng's sight.

Gu Sheng stared at the three of them, his eyes flashing with an icy cold light.

As the three men gradually approached, Gu Sheng saw their faces clearly.

"Huh? Why them?"

Gu Sheng muttered secretly in his heart.

He didn't expect that these three people were the servants he met in Ji's house before.

They don't look particularly powerful, but it takes a lot of perseverance to track them down here.

"You three, why are you following me?"

Gu Sheng sat on the stone and asked coldly.

The three of them looked at each other, and one of them, who seemed to be the leader, said, "We are following the arrangements of the housekeeper Ji Ren to take your life."

Gu Sheng frowned, his heart full of doubts.

"Why do you want to kill me? I have no deep hatred with your Ji family."

"We are just carrying out the mission. As for why, we don't know."

The leader shook his head and said.

Gu Sheng knew that these people were just pawns, and even Ji Ren didn't have the ability to do so.

Therefore, the real mastermind behind this is that old lady Ji Hui.

"call……"

Gu Sheng took a deep breath, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes: "If that's the case, don't blame me for being rude."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Sheng's figure suddenly jumped up.

His figure rushed towards the three people like a flash of lightning.

When the three saw Gu Sheng rushing over, they immediately dispersed and formed an encirclement.

Their movements were swift and orderly, and it was obvious that this was not the first time they had carried out such a mission.

The leader drew a long sword from his waist.

Although it is daytime now, the sword still shines coldly in the sunlight.

I don’t know how many innocent souls have been killed by this sword.

The other two each took out a pair of short knives, with sharp blades and full of murderous intent.

Gu Sheng’s eyes were cold.

To him, these three servants were no match for him at all.

But even so, it cannot be underestimated.

"Huhuhu..."

The divine power in Gu Sheng's body was surging, and a powerful force was flowing through his body.

"bring it on!"

Gu Sheng shouted loudly and rushed forward.

The leader swung his sword and attacked Gu Sheng's vital points.

The other two surrounded him from both sides, and their short knives stabbed at Gu Sheng's soft spot like poisonous snakes.

The three of them cooperated well and their attack was fierce.

There was no fear in Gu Sheng's eyes as he faced the challenge head on.

Suddenly, a dazzling green light burst out from Gu Sheng's fist.

A powerful golden force burst out from the fist.

A huge energy vortex formed around his body, swallowing up all the attacks from the three people.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the attacks of the three people were completely defeated by Gu Sheng's power.

They only felt a powerful force rushing towards them, causing their bodies to fly backwards involuntarily and fall heavily to the ground.

Gu Sheng stood in place, and the energy vortex around his body slowly dissipated.

The three of them didn't expect that Gu Sheng could defeat them with just one move.

The three of them got up from the ground, their eyes full of shock.

They didn't expect that Gu Sheng's strength was so strong that the three of them couldn't even block one of his moves together.

"This...how is this possible?"

The leader muttered to himself, his face full of disbelief.

"The butler is such a jerk. Why did he ask us to kill him? Isn't this asking us to die?"

"That's right. We couldn't withstand a single blow. My liver hurt so much."

The other two servants also complained.

Gu Sheng looked at them coldly and could tell from their tone that they had lost the courage to fight.

Gu Sheng did not make another move, but slowly walked towards them.

"Tell me, why did Ji Hui want to kill me?"

Gu Sheng's voice was icy cold, as chilling as the judge of hell.

The leading servant swallowed with some difficulty.

They knew that they could not complete the task today.

"Ancestor Ji Hui said that you took something from the Ji family with you."

The leader finally spoke.

"Things from the Ji family?"

Gu Sheng frowned, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

"Could it be the seal stone?"

Gu Sheng said secretly in his heart.

But that was a gift from Ji Ziyue to him secretly, and no one else knew about it.

Could it be that Ji Ziyue betrayed him?
No, Ji Ziyue wouldn’t do that.

"what is that?"

Gu Sheng asked.

The leading servant shook his head: "We don't know either. We are just carrying out our mission."

Gu Sheng was silent for a moment, knowing that he could not get any more information from these people.

"You go."

Gu Sheng waved his hand.

“Let…let us go?”

The three of them looked at each other. They didn't expect Gu Sheng to let them go.

"Well, rescue him now before I change my mind!"

Gu Sheng nodded.

Without saying anything more, they turned around and quickly disappeared from Gu Sheng's sight.

Gu Sheng stood there, watching their backs as they left and couldn't help but sigh.

"Did Ji Ziyue really say something?"

Gu Sheng muttered to himself.

The three servants were filled with anxiety on their way back to Ji's house.

They knew that Ji Ren's punishment for mission failure was always severe, not to mention that this time the order was given by old lady Ji Hui herself.

Therefore, the three of them involuntarily quickened their pace, hoping to report the situation truthfully as soon as possible.

When we returned to Ji's house, it was already night time.

The three of them did not dare to delay and immediately went to the housekeeper Ji Ren's residence. Ji Ren was flipping through an ancient book in the room. After hearing the report from the three of them, his face instantly became gloomy.

"What? Mission failed?"

Jiren's voice was filled with anger.

"Yes."

The leading servant nodded.

"Where is Gu Sheng now?"

Jiren asked coldly.

"Gu Sheng is in a barren mountain thousands of miles away. I wonder if he has left now..."

One of the servants replied.

Ji Ren's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He looked at the three people coldly and said, "You three are useless. You can't even handle such a small matter. What's the point of keeping you?"

Before he finished speaking, a sharp dagger appeared in Ji Ren's hand.

His figure flashed by like a ghost, and the three men fell in a pool of blood before they even had time to react.

There was no trace of mercy on Ji Ren's face. He snorted coldly and turned to leave the room.

The hour of Chou at midnight is when the night is darkest.

Gu Sheng was sleeping soundly in a hidden cave in the barren mountains.

He was breathing steadily and seemed unaware of the approaching danger.

There was silence all around the cave, with only the occasional chirping of night birds and the rustling of leaves in the wind.

However, at this moment, a dark shadow approached the cave silently.

This black shadow was Ji Ren.

He was extremely fast and made almost no sound, like a ghost in the night.

Ji Ren stopped outside the cave and looked around carefully.

After making sure that there was no one else there, he slowly walked into the cave.

When he saw Gu Sheng sleeping soundly, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Three losers can't kill one loser, what a bunch of losers!"

Ji Ren spoke in a low voice, then slowly raised the dagger in his hand, ready to deal a fatal blow to Gu Sheng.

At this critical moment, Gu Sheng suddenly turned over and avoided Ji Ren's attack.

"Ji Ren, you are here as expected."

Gu Sheng said with disdain.

"So you weren't asleep!"

There was a hint of surprise in Ji Ren's eyes.

He didn't expect that Gu Sheng was pretending to be asleep and seemed to know that he was coming.

"Gu Sheng, do you think you can still escape from my grasp?"

Jiren said coldly.

Then, a hint of cruelty flashed in Ji Ren's eyes.

After this simple contest, he also knew that Gu Sheng was no ordinary person.

But today he must kill it here. This is the task Ji Hui taught him.

"call……"

Ji Ren took a deep breath, and the spiritual energy in his body circulated wildly.

In an instant, a huge net made of spiritual power formed around his body.

This is exactly his special skill - the dragnet.

"Prepare to die, Gu Sheng!"

Jiren shouted.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

The dragnet of heaven and earth pressed towards Gu Sheng with a sound of breaking through the air.

The majestic momentum seemed to crush the entire cave.

"not good!"

Gu Sheng's eyes narrowed. Knowing the power of this move, he didn't dare to take it head-on and his body shook.

Then he used the unique footwork taught to him by the old madman - Tiangang Seven Star Steps.

A few afterimages flashed by, and his figure moved left and right, forward and backward outside the cave, making it difficult to grasp.

Seeing this, Ji Ren's eyes flashed with admiration.

"What a beautiful footwork, he is indeed the person the ancestor wants to get rid of."

Before he finished speaking, Ji Ren summoned his divine power again.

His body suddenly split into three, each emitting a different light.

This is another of his unique skills - the art of clones.

Gu Sheng was stunned.

With his cultivation and surveillance, he was simply unable to distinguish which was Ji Ren's real body and which was the clone in a short period of time.

Moreover, facing the simultaneous attack of three Ji Ren, Gu Sheng felt unprecedented pressure.

In desperation, Gu Sheng had to use the Great Void Technique.

In an instant, Gu Sheng's body suddenly became illusory and merged into the void.

"Hehe... He actually used the Great Void Technique in front of me..."

Watching Gu Sheng's figure disappear, Ji Ren sneered.

He seemed to have anticipated this. He then formed seals with his hands and summoned his divine power once again.

In an instant, the entire space was filled with powerful air fluctuations, which seemed to tear the entire space in half.

"receive!"

As Ji Ren roared, the space of dozens of meters around him seemed to solidify instantly.

Gu Sheng in the void was suddenly shocked. He didn't expect that Ji Ren, a servant, was so powerful.

It was as if it was sucking away the oxygen around it.

If this happened in modern times, it would definitely be a vacuum machine!

But now, he wanted to use this trick to kill himself in the void.

When Gu Sheng was visiting the four villages, the place where the Great Void Technique was located was compressed into a ball, forming a small void area.

Gu Sheng was trapped in the Great Void Technique and couldn't escape.

At this moment, Gu Sheng truly felt the crisis of death.

If I continue to stay in the void, I will probably die from lack of oxygen in just a few minutes.

"Your Great Void Technique is not pure yet. Using it in front of me is just like showing off your skills in front of an expert! Humph!"

A cruel smile appeared on Ji Ren's lips.

"go to hell!"

Jiren shouted.

Then, a ball of divine fire ignited in his palm.

The temperature of this divine fire was extremely high, and just when it was lit up, it made Gu Sheng feel a burning sensation.

"Shh!"

Ji Ren cast the divine fire into the void realm where Gu Sheng was trapped.

His intention was very clear, which was to burn Gu Sheng to death in the void.

"How to do?"

In a state of desperation, Gu Sheng immediately brought out the "Taoist Scripture".

As a classic that contains endless Taoist power, "Tao Te Ching" naturally has the virtue of loving life.

At that moment, Gu Sheng placed all his hopes on the "Tao Te Ching".

Perhaps it was the instantaneous impact of mental power, the "Tao Te Ching" flew out of the void in an instant under Gu Sheng's urging, emitting bursts of golden light above the void where Gu Sheng was hiding.

"Books? How can there be books?"

Ji Ren was stunned for a moment, and at the same time, his strength was slightly dispersed.

At this moment, one of the pages of the "Taoist Scripture" suddenly turned into a flying knife and flew directly towards Ji Ren.

The flying knife was extremely fast and arrived in front of Ji Ren in an instant.

"Oh my god! Hidden weapons!"

Ji Ren was shocked.

He didn't expect that Gu Sheng could organize a counterattack at this time.

Then Ji Ren quickly summoned his divine power, trying to avoid the attack of the flying knife.

"Bah!"

The flying knife brushed past Ji Ren's cheek, leaving a trail of blood.

"what is that?"

Ji Ren was surprised by the "Taoism Scripture" that turned into a flying knife.

Taking advantage of this gap, Gu Sheng took the opportunity to escape from the Great Void Technique and stood in front of Ji Ren again.

Seeing this, Ji Ren narrowed his eyes involuntarily.

"Gu Sheng, Gu Sheng, I really can't believe that a boy like you can have so many abilities."

Ji Ren said with disdain. (End of this chapter)
