Under the moonlight, within the ancient temple.

Qing Chenxi took a step forward, shattering the sudden attack.

Her face was icy, unable to comprehend who would attack her here.

Just as she was pondering, she suddenly felt a gust of wind behind her.

Hundred Steps Chasing Wind.

The attack from the front was merely bait.

Daring not to hesitate, she wielded her spiritual sword, slashing backward.

Boom!

Sword energy erupted, crashing down like thunder.

However, what she struck was a sword light, just like before.

Another feint?

Qing Chenxi was alarmed.

At this moment, she felt a piercing sensation near her ear, as if a giant sword was whistling towards her.

A counterattack was too late; daring not to hesitate, she activated a defensive talisman, dodging with all her might.

Boom!

A massive impact roared past.

Crack!

Bang!

Although she dodged the vital point, the punch still landed on her shoulder.

The impact made her subconsciously retreat, and the talisman shattered on the spot.

Even her shoulder was injured.

Gang Qi? Qi Sea Heavenly Gang? Had he completed the ninth stage?

Surprise flashed through Qing Chenxi's mind.

However, she also saw her attacker, but just as she caught a glimpse of the figure,

the opponent attacked again.

Not with a punch, but by closing in and striking with an elbow.

Qing Chenxi narrowly avoided it.

Then, with a turn, the opponent continued the assault with a swinging punch.

Boom!

Too fast, this strike landed directly on Qing Chenxi's face.

The latter gritted her teeth, formed a hand seal, and unleashed a palm strike imbued with lightning.

Bang!

The opponent had a defense, but it was still broken.

Yet, there was still Gang Qi defense.

The level of this person's Qi Sea Heavenly Gang was the highest she had ever seen among Qi Refinement cultivators.

Rumble!

The forces collided, and the two of them separated for a moment.

However, neither of them had time to clearly see the other's appearance, and they both attacked again.

At this moment, any hesitation could lead to a disadvantage.

And possibly death.

The two quickly closed in, one unleashing roaring lightning, the other erupting with Gang Qi along with their blood energy.

Bang!

Bang!

Back and forth, fists whistled, and lightning flashed.

Neither of them defended, but instead fought with all their might.

Fresh blood splattered on the ground.

At this moment, Gu An felt his body's strength waning, and he swallowed a pill to continue his fierce attack.

He absolutely could not allow the opponent even a moment to breathe.

Qing Chenxi was the same, talismans on her body constantly emitting light.

Fists and lightning clashed, each move lethal.

With a bang, Gu An punched Qing Chenxi in the chest, while her lightning palm struck his back.

Blood spurted out.

"Who exactly are you, Your Excellency? What grievance do we have that requires such violence?"

Qing Chenxi continued to speak while fighting: "Could it be someone from the inner sect who dislikes me? You and I both have backers; you should know that my backer will avenge me."

But no matter how Qing Chenxi spoke, the other party did not relent in the slightest.

Moreover, it was the kind of attack that disregarded their own life.

As time passed, both of them had sustained considerable injuries.

Spells flashed continuously, and the earth-splitting fists were unleashed with great force, erupting with boundless power.

But suddenly, Qing Chenxi felt a slight loss of strength in her shoulder, where she had been struck earlier.

Poison?

Alarmed, she fed herself a detoxification pill.

However, in that brief moment, fists rained down like a storm.

Finally, Gu An felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.

He was gaining the upper hand.

Daring not to hesitate, he gathered all his strength.

At this moment, his fist was heavier than ever before.

Boom!

A heavy punch sent her staggering, unable to parry.

Then, seizing the opportunity, he struck with an elbow on her chin, turning and swinging his fist again.

Boom!

The newly formed talisman defense shattered.

Blood energy surged, and his fist was covered in Gang Qi.

A heavy aerial punch struck her cheek.

This punch, at the moment the talisman defense formed, landed on Qing Chenxi's cheek.

Bang!

Crack!

Her face contorted, and bones shattered.

Qing Chenxi cried out miserably, but did not retreat half a step. At this moment, she used all her strength to thrust out the sword in her hand.

Puchi!

The sword, with its powerful force, pierced through the talisman defense and stabbed into Gu An's abdomen.

Blood splattered, and Gu An, feeling the severe pain, dared not hesitate in the slightest. He took a step forward, allowing the sword to pierce through his abdomen.

Just to get in front of Qing Chenxi.

At this moment, his fist was covered with the complete Mountain-Splitting Fist, the first volume's complete Gang Qi.

"Senior, this position is just right."

Gu An grinned and unleashed a punch.

Boom!

The fist pierced through everything, the magic robe shattered, and flesh disintegrated and pulverized like foam.

The massive force of blood energy pierced through Qing Chenxi's body and landed on the wall behind.

The entire wall collapsed with a bang.

At this moment, all the power fluctuations finally ended.

Qing Chenxi also felt the life force draining from her body, and even gathering strength was difficult.

Only then did she have the space to look at the person in front of her.

Under the moonlight, the other person's appearance was relatively clear.

But she never expected that the person who attacked would actually be this person.

"It's you? How is that possible?" Qing Chenxi looked at the person in front of her with resentment in her eyes:

"I have always been careful, but I still underestimated you."

Gu An carefully pulled out the other person's storage treasure and spiritual sword, then used a healing talisman to stop the wound, and also ate a detoxification pill, just in case there was poison.

However, the detoxification pill could only detoxify simple poisons.

Then, looking at the person in front of him, he said calmly:

"Senior, be careful; this junior is also very careful."

"So, Ye Song and the others were also killed by you?" Qing Chenxi took two steps back, then fell to the ground.

Staring at Gu An intently, if looks could kill, the person in front of her would have died long ago.

"This junior also wanted to be an ordinary disciple, not involved in your struggles, but you forced me."

Gu An condensed a ball of fire in his hand and casually dropped it on the ground.

The fire began to burn.

"Heh heh." Qing Chenxi looked at Gu An unwillingly and said: "I am not so easy to kill. I said someone would avenge me.

We will meet again soon."

After taking the other party's storage treasure and spiritual sword, Gu An came to Qing Chenxi and raised the spiritual sword.

"Then, Senior, remember to walk slowly, in case you wait for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu An thrust down with the sword in the firelight.

Completely ending the nightmare in the other party's horrified eyes.

After confirming that the other party was completely dead and that the fire was large enough, Gu An left.

A long time later.

Some people came to the ancient temple.

Seeing the fire, they were a little incredulous.

Afterwards, they extinguished the fire with magic.

A middle-aged man was the first to discover the body.

The faces of the people who came were gloomy.

One of the women said: "Is this Junior Sister Qing?"

"It should be." The middle-aged man said: "Let's go back and inform the sect first. With one less person at the beginning of the mission, our risk is too great."

......

Back in the courtyard, Gu An ignored the big-eyed fish jumping in the pond and quickly returned to his room, starting to circulate his energy to stabilize his injuries.

All the healing talismans were used up on this trip, and the defensive talismans were also used up.

The other odds and ends that could be used were also used.

That shield was also broken.

It wasn't very useful.

Qing Chenxi is dead.

And she died outside, so the sect's investigation will not reach his head.

So, he is temporarily safe.

As for the person behind Qing Chenxi, the other party will not suspect him.

They can't just find him to give an explanation, right?

Wouldn't that be finding the real culprit without even investigating?

Gu An shook his head, temporarily not thinking about it anymore.

He should recover his body first.

The next day, Gu An was much better.

He didn't even have time to look at Qing Chenxi's storage treasure.

After hiding the things, he went to chop wood.

Nothing happened for three consecutive days.

The injuries were no longer a major concern.

On the fourth day, news suddenly spread from the outer sect that they would thoroughly investigate Qing Chenxi's death.

In particular, some outer disciples were directly summoned for questioning.

Although it wasn't Gu An's turn, it still worried him.

Why is this happening?

With doubts, Gu An returned to his residence.

Looking at the pond, he found that the big-eyed fish had hidden again.

Chu Meng is here?

Just right, see if he can ask about Qing Chenxi's matter.
