"What a good 'Exquisite is much less expensive'. I'm afraid you've misjudged me, and I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you."
Ye Feng smiled indifferently. His voice was extremely plain.
"Don't try to fool me. This old man has seen countless people in his life. I can tell from one look that you don't have any feelings for that woman. It would be perfect to keep her as a hostage."
Ye Feng chuckled, but didn't comment.
He did not expose the other party directly. He could not even tell that Ye Xueyi was his relative. He also had the nerve to say that he had seen countless people.
"Alright, let's not talk about this. Master Ancient Supreme Commander, weren't you in a hurry to go back and heal your injuries?"
"That's right. My cultivation has regressed, and I'm in a hurry to consolidate my cultivation base …"
As Ye Feng spoke, he raised the corner of his mouth into an unfathomable smile.
"Well, then. "Yes, please."
"What, let me go first?" Gu Yuan Wu was startled as he felt something was wrong.
However, if he could leave early, then it would be better for him to leave early.
After all, it was not entirely impossible for the space of the peak to collapse in the next moment.
"Alright, I won't be polite then. Let's go."
… ….
At the Gate of Heaven, a huge bell rang, ringing loudly. The bell rang at the Gate of Heaven, ringing loudly.
The earth trembled. The incomparably thick jade board seemed to be pulled by some invisible force, slowly moving upwards.
"Look, look! The gates of heaven are open!"
"No way, it's actually real. Is this the wrong date for me to remember? Or should I say, it was opened one day earlier than expected?"
In the eyes of those in the Celestial Sect of Wonders, there was an indescribable yearning.
Many people understood that this was a good place to cultivate across borders. Thus, one could see how much importance they attached to this place. They almost all viewed it as a place of faith.
Yet now, such a highly praised belief had changed.
He couldn't help but wonder if something strange had happened.
Yang Wuji scanned the crowd, and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, prepare yourself. When Master Wang sent out his spiritual will, he said that they have met with great trouble, and their opponents are very strong. If anything happens, we must prepare ourselves."
"Alright."
In fact, he also received a message from Master Wang.
The High Masters and the Adepts discussed for a while, afraid that something might happen. Then they decided to disperse the crowd of Martial Disciples as well as the surrounding outer sect disciples.
Otherwise, if there were a large number of casualties due to the mutation, it would not be a small matter.
"Oh right, Master Yang, do you think that when the gates of heaven open, ghosts from the Town of Souls will float over?"
Yang Wuji nodded his head deeply, "It is possible. This is the first time the Gate of Heaven has such an abnormal phenomenon. Everyone gather your spiritual qi. How about this, if any living things appear, remember to take action immediately …"
"It's coming out, it's coming out! Something's coming out!"
Yang Wuji closed his eyes, and felt the changes on his face, "I'm sure now, it's not the aura of a student. Everyone, prepare to fight with your full strength."
As soon as he finished his words, a profound, dark flame suddenly emerged from the end of the Heaven Gate.
"Do it," Yang Wuji's eyes turned sharp and he almost blurted out.
His entire body's Profound Qi was like a wild horse. On his arm, he released an unparalleled wind from his palm, directly striking the fire in the air.
"Go!"
At the same time, the other people around him realized that this inhumane thing was flying out very quickly. They were shocked and quickly followed Yang Wuji's example.
Thousands upon thousands of light spots were condensed. Within an instant, each of them used all of their power to attack the fire.
"Hm, that's not right. This flame looks a little familiar …"
After Yang Wuji made his move, he took a closer look. At this time, he had already thought of one possibility. However, for a moment, he still could not believe it.
"Bastard, I am Gu Yuan Wu!"
Gu Yuan Wu's low and loud voice resounded through the space.
"What? This …" The crowd felt like they were struck by lightning as they hurriedly stopped their attacks.
However, even if they wanted to hold back,
However, there were some moves that couldn't be retracted once they were used.
The fire from Gu Yuan Wu's incarnation was hit by so many attacks at the same time, almost as if it was going to be extinguished. The flame's momentum was much lower.
However, he felt pain all over his body. He cursed in his mind but couldn't say anything. He chased after his body and drilled into it.
On his body, a golden light flashed and his soul consciousness finally returned to his body.
In a split-second, a towering blood arrow burst out from Gu Yuan Wu's mouth, causing him to stagger and feel dizzy. His expression was painful to the extreme and he almost kneeled on the ground.
"Master Ancient, Master Ancient, I'm sorry, but we didn't know that the first person to leave the Heaven Gate would be you." Just now, Ren Xingtian's attack had been quite heavy, but seeing how serious his vomiting was, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
The first person to leave the Gate of Heaven was neither a student nor an enemy. Instead, he was a teacher who had observed the situation in the past. This in itself was a bit unpredictable.
"That's right, it's reasonable to say that the spiritual will has the ability to cross borders. I thought you could come back through other means, but I didn't expect that you would also pass through the Gate of Heaven." Yang Wuji's face also revealed a hint of awkwardness.
Although he and Gu Yuan Wu were not on good terms, they wouldn't hurt each other. This was a principle of his.
"You all … "You guys …" The corner of Gu Yuan Wu's mouth twitched and blood kept flowing out. Compared to his cold face before he entered the Heaven Gate, it was like a completely different world.
After a moment of silence, he covered his swollen face and said with slight resentment, "I understand, Ye Feng. No wonder you let me be the first to come out, I already felt that you were not that kind."
"What, Leaftip?"
Elder Zhao was stunned when he heard this. He squeezed out an ugly smile. "It can't be, Master Ancient. How could this Ye Feng reach Master Ancient …"
Qin Jue slowly walked over with some doubts: "That's right, Guru Ancient, what's going on? Can you please explain in detail?"
"Specific explanation... "Well, forget it."
Gu Yuan Wu laughed embarrassedly. To explain the whole thing, it was really a shameful thing.
At this moment, he could only forcefully suppress the anger in his heart. Otherwise, if he continued like this, he would faint on the spot due to the burning sensation in his heart.
They looked at each other and started to ask questions.
"Oh right, Master Ancient, what happened in the Gate of Heaven? Why did it open one day earlier?"
"Isn't it so? Also, where is Master Wang?"
Gu Yuan Wu swallowed his saliva and then said: "The matter of opening the Gate of Heaven ahead of time is really difficult to explain. As for Master Wang …"
"I'm here."
In the dense darkness, a ball of lightning flew out from the Gate of Heaven and fell from the sky.
It was Wang Rui's soul,
Its speed was exceptionally fast. After a golden light soared, the tornado swept away the fallen leaves and entered its body.
Wang Rui suddenly opened his eyes. With starry eyes, he stood up from his seat.
Although he had suffered some minor injuries and expended a great deal of energy, he was still one of the best of the best, a Martial Spirit Stage expert.
"Master Wang."
"Master Wang, how are you?"
When they saw Wang Rui coming out of the Gate of Heaven, the crowd looked at each other in shock. They couldn't imagine that in this year's competition, the first and second contestants were not some students, but the teachers in charge of the competition...
Moreover, Gu Yuan Wu's spiritual will couldn't cross over the border, so it was fine.
However, Wang Rui's soul was actually relying on the Gate of Heaven to come out. That was strange. No one could understand what was going on in this dead soul town.
"It's fine, I'm fine. It's all thanks to Ye Feng this time. Otherwise, I would've been trapped inside too and wouldn't have been able to get out."
"What? Ye Feng helped?"
Everyone's face turned pale. They looked at each other in confusion.
"That's right."
Wang Rui nodded with a solemn expression.
After a moment, he took a deep breath and said loudly, "If he, Ye Feng, is lucky enough to escape out of the Gate of Heaven, I, Wang Rui, am willing to give him the chance to fight over a Successor Disciple position and accept him as my Successor Disciple."
His words had been sent out using true essence. Not to mention the Heaven Gate, even half of the Mysterious Gate had heard his cries.
"Master Wang, this... "It's better to consider things more carefully. Follow the rules and don't be rash," Qin Jue couldn't help but speak up.
Everyone had always thought that Master Wang was a solemn and serious person, but today, they all had a different view.
"No, this is not sloppy. I have never been like this before, wanting to take someone as my disciple."
Wang Rui's eyes shined as he looked towards the Heaven Gate. His expression didn't seem fake at all.
The rest of the people were stunned for a moment. They looked at each other before turning their gazes towards the Heaven Gate, waiting for the appearance of the third person. However, the third person had yet to appear …
… ….
At the top of the mountain, Wang Rui's voice passed through the gates of heaven.
Although he could not hear it clearly, he could understand the reason behind it.
"Hehe, you people from the Martial Spirit Continent sure have an interesting way of doing things. That Martial Spirit Expert just now did not send anyone to save you, nor did he come out of fear. Instead, he just shouted that it would depend on your luck, and if you succeed, he would have to accept you as his disciple."
Black cyclones spread around Ye Feng, emitting a series of shrill sounds of mockery.
