Chapter 436 - 436 Arriving in Time
436 Arriving in Time
Gu Mingzhou was very fast. He had entered the fifth-rank Earth Realm. Even though he had just experienced a terrible battle, he still had super combat strength. He arrived at the Heavenly Sword Sect in a few breaths and flew directly into the hall. His spiritual sense spread out and he instantly found Xu Fengyu’s location.
Just as Gu Mingzhou had guessed, the first thing Xu Fengyu did after entering the Heavenly Sword Sect was to ambush Zhao Gao and the others.
However, Xu Fengyu still failed.
Besides Floating Jade Island Master, there was another cultivator in the Earth Realm, Jing Wudao!
Gu Mingzhou’s anxious heart finally relaxed.
He saw the heavily injured Zhao Gao, as well as the First Elder and Fifth Elder who was guarding Zhao Gao.
Now, everyone was safe and sound.
It seemed that Xu Fengyu did not manage to act violently after entering the Heavenly Sword Sect. Instead, he was entangled by the Floating Jade Island Master and Jing Wudao.
This was also something Xu Fengyu did not expect.
He had thought Gu Mingzhou would not be able to stop him in a short period of time since he was trapped in the lightning tribulation.
The only remaining Earth Realm cultivator in the Heavenly Sword Sect, Floating Jade Island Master, could not stop him.
Therefore, he charged forward with full confidence and even wanted to kill the Floating Jade Island Master, who might pose a threat.
Xu Fengyu did not expect although Gu Mingzhou was not in the Heavenly Sword Sect, the Earth Realm cultivators were not only the Floating Jade Island Master, but also Jing Wudao!
Jing Wudao’s spiritual sense should be on par with Zhao Qiankun’s at his peak.
Even though it caused Jing Wudao’s divine soul to be severely injured previously.
However, with long-term nourishment and the continuous improvement of Gu Mingzhou’s cultivation, he had the strength of a cultivator in the Earth Realm.
Because Jing Wudao possessed a spiritual sense, as long as he did not exert his full cultivation, no one would be able to sense that he was a terrifying existence that was no weaker than a cultivator of the Earth Realm.
It was precisely because of this that Xu Fengyu had fallen here.
He did not expect when he was about to kill the Floating Jade Island Master, this existence with a divine soul would suddenly jump out and possess the same strength as him.
This was not Xu Fengyu’s first time meeting Jing Wudao.
Back then, in the depths of the freezing cold land, when Gu Mingzhou had no way to escape, it was Jing Wudao who blocked Xu Fengyu’s fatal attack and allowed Gu Mingzhou to escape.
However, the two of them only met for a moment and did not exchange many blows before they parted ways.
Therefore, Xu Fengyu did not know much about Jing Wudao. He only knew that he was related to Gu Mingzhou.
It was precisely because Jing Wudao was related to Gu Mingzhou that Xu Fengyu had no choice but to be cautious.
He temporarily gave up on attacking and began to deal with the joint attack of Floating Jade Island Master and Jing Wudao. He wanted to test Jing Wudao’s strength.
Gu Mingzhou’s sudden rise from a powerless cultivator to a cultivator of the Earth Realm who could shake Xu Fengyu made Xu Fengyu’s heart palpitate.
He couldn’t help but worry about the extent of the improvement of the soul body that was originally stronger than Gu Mingzhou and had disappeared with him.
Xu Fengyu was even more surprised that Gu Mingzhou, who he had determined would not survive, had successfully seized the tribulation and returned before he could probe Jing Wudao’s depth.
Gu Mingzhou’s speed was very fast. When he noticed Xu Fengyu, Floating Jade Island Master, and Jing Wudao fighting each other, he did not stop at all. Instead, he directly flew past them.
He instantly landed in front of Zhao Gao, who was surrounded by the crowd.
“Gu Mingzhou!” Zhao Gao shouted excitedly.
Earlier, Murong Fu had suddenly erupted with terrifying cultivation. Then, he fought with Gu Mingzhou in the heavenly void, causing countless strange noises. It was difficult to tell whether he was dead or alive.
Zhao Gao had always been worried about him.
Now that he saw Gu Mingzhou was fine, he was immediately excited.
“Little Brother Gu!” the First Elder and the Fifth Elder also shouted.
He seemed to have something he wanted to ask, but he was afraid to ask.
“Don’t worry, Murong Fu no longer exist in this world!” Gu Mingzhou knew what the First Elder and the Fifth Elder wanted to ask, so he said with a smile on his face.
What he meant was that Murong Fu had died!
The Fifth Elder and the First Elder became excited at the same time.
“Thank you for your help, Brother Gu!” the fifth elder hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed deeply to Gu Mingzhou, thanking him.
“Thank you for your help, Brother Gu!” First Elder followed closely behind and bowed.
Without Gu Mingzhou, the Fifth Elder and the Great Elder would have been doomed if they wanted to fight Murong Fu alone.
Gu Mingzhou waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to thank him.
“Sect Master Zhao, are you alright?” He walked toward Zhao Gao and asked.
“Don’t worry, I won’t take my last breath until I get through this calamity. On the other hand, you’re unkempt and have suffered a lot.” Zhao Gao said with a pale face.
Although Gu Mingzhou had changed into new clothes, his hair and face were still burned by the thunder. Zhao Gao subconsciously thought it had something to do with Murong Fu.
“This was caused by the lightning tribulation just now.” Gu Mingzhou stood up and explained.
He looked at Xu Fengyu, Floating Jade Island Master, and Jing Wudao, who were engaged in a fierce battle in midair. He knew there would not be any problems for the time being, so he turned to Fifth Elder.
“When I came back just now, I saw a million England Army outside the Heavenly Sword Sect. I’m afraid they will soon attack the Heavenly Sword Sect. I hope the two of you can go and stop them.” Gu Mingzhou cupped his hands and said.
“What?” when the fifth elder and the first elder heard the news, they were just as surprised as Gu Mingzhou at that time.
The weak Zhao Gao was also very shocked.
“I should have guessed it long ago. Since Murong Fu lured Xu Fengyu, how could he not have left behind a foreshadowing? Immediately close the city gates and mobilize the army to prepare for resistance.” He stood up shakily from the ground and said,
“I’ll go right away!” First Elder Murong Kuang took the lead and flew out of the hall.
“Brother Gu, now that the Sky Sword Sect is in danger, I won’t accompany you here.” Fifth Elder Murong Yan was about to leave.
“I’ll go with you!” Zhao Gao suddenly called out to Murong Yan.
“Sect Master Zhao, your body?” Gu Mingzhou quickly said.
“I’ve already informed Zhen Gang. The reinforcements from The Trap will arrive at dawn at the earliest. Before that, we have to defend the Heavenly Sword Sect!” Zhao Gao walked to Murong Yan’s side and said, ”
The situation was urgent. Fifth Elder Murong Yan nodded at Gu Mingzhou.
Without saying anything else, he grabbed Zhao Gao’s arm and quickly left.
As the Fifth Elder left, the cultivators who were originally standing there also chased after the Fifth Elder.
Gu Mingzhou looked worried. It would be very difficult for these defeated soldiers to defend the Heavenly Sword Sect and resist the million-strong England army and the underwater demon cultivators.
If the Heavenly Sword Sect failed, the people would definitely be plunged into misery.
However, at this point, Gu Mingzhou could not go and help because there were more important things that he needed to deal with.
He turned around and looked at Xu Fengyu, who was facing the joint attack of Floating Jade Island Master and Jing Wudao. His gaze immediately burst out with coldness.
