Chapter 1664: 806 Beat Down Dark Soul! (Second Update)
This is clearly not the Shi Tian I remember.
What has happened to Shi Tian?
Why does he seem like a different person?
Moreover, Shi Tian’s gaze towards him was exceptionally unfamiliar, as if he hadn’t recognized him at all.
There’s no reason for him to feel that Shi Tian is familiar, while Shi Tian doesn’t find him familiar at all.
Long Yi grabbed back the mask and put it on, then threw another punch.
Dark Soul couldn’t take more punches from him. When he didn’t know it was Shi Tian, it didn’t matter, but knowing it now, he wouldn’t dare to face it head-on anymore.
He dodged, frowning tightly as he looked at Long Yi, "Are you crazy? It’s me!"
Gu Jiao made a strange sound, from the beginning of the fight between Long Yi and Dark Soul, she was almost certain that Long Yi was the only opponent of Dark Soul — Shi Tian.
But the words of Dark Soul sounded odd, it seemed like Dark Soul knew Long Yi and Long Yi should also know Dark Soul?
Did Long Yi forget the events of the past?
So he didn’t recognize Dark Soul.
Gu Jiao looked at Dark Soul, who specialized in defense, and murmured, "Dark Soul’s morale has declined quite a bit. It seems he was often brutally beaten by Shi Tian in the past."
After discovering that the opponent was indeed Shi Tian, Dark Soul did show a moment of panic. It was a kind of fear that was hidden deep in his bones, a reaction that couldn’t be trained without being beaten hundreds of times.
But there’s also a saying in the world, that times change.
Shi Tian was no longer the Shi Tian from twenty years ago, and Dark Soul was no longer the Dark Soul from twenty years ago.
For the past twenty years, Dark Soul never slackened for a moment, while Shi Tian seemed to have even forgotten his former skills, his killing aura had greatly diminished, and his strength had weakened quite a bit.
This thought flashed through, and Dark Soul gradually calmed down.
He was first curious and didn’t inflict critical damage, then as he became apprehensive he restrained himself, but now that he thought it through, Shi Tian wasn’t as terrifying anymore.
No matter what happened to Shi Tian, the current Shi Tian was no longer his match!
Dark Soul landed on a piece of the roof tile, looking coldly at Long Yi in the alley, "This is not the duel I wanted, defeating the current you won’t bring me any joy, but you insist on protecting that kid and being my enemy, so you can’t blame me for taking advantage of your weakness! Prepare to die, Shi Tian—"
Shi Tian?
Long Yi’s mind suddenly buzzed.
A moment of confusion appeared in his eyes.
"Long Yi! Be careful!"
Gu Jiao reminded loudly!
Unfortunately, it was too late. Dark Soul’s palm hit Long Yi’s chest squarely.
Long Yi was sent flying out, like a sandbag being thrown away, he fell heavily on the ground, skidding all the way to the corner and crashing into the cold, hard wall, creating a hole.
Dark Soul leapt into the air, landed in front of Long Yi, grabbed him out of the hole, and kicked him to the ground.
"Shi Tian, without your killing aura, you’re really weak!"
After saying this, he kicked towards Long Yi again.
Long Yi stared blankly at the sky, not dodging.
Gu Jiao: "Crap, Long Yi crashed when he heard the name Shi Tian..."
Gu Jiao pulled out the mechanism box made by Gu Xiaoshun and threw it forcefully at Dark Soul!
Gu Xiaoshun had quite the talent, though this mechanism box was not as powerful as the one made by Master Lu, it still managed to scratch Dark Soul’s neck.
A string of blood beads splattered out, the thick scent of blood permeated Dark Soul’s whole nasal cavity.
He put down the foot he was about to stomp on Long Yi, turned coldly to look at Gu Jiao, "Kid, you’re in a hurry to die, I’ll grant your wish!"
Gu Jiao blinked in surprise at the suddenly serious Dark Soul, "Uh... there’s no need."
Dark Soul pushed his qinggong to the extreme, his black robe whipped loudly in the night wind.
He tapped his toe, just about to leap over the long sword planted in the ground by Long Yi, when suddenly a terrifying aura rapidly approached from behind.
His brow furrowed, instinctively turning his head, only to see that Long Yi, who should have been unable to fight back, had stood up unharmed.
Long Yi was so fast he was almost only a blur, in the blink of an eye, Long Yi had surpassed Dark Soul and reached Gu Jiao first.
Those who cross this boundary, die!
Long Yi grabbed Dark Soul by the neck, lifted him high, and mercilessly slammed him to the ground!
Dark Soul didn’t know how many bones were broken, his internal organs were all injured, and he spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot!
This couldn’t be...
Impossible!
He clearly had no killing aura anymore, why was he still not his match!
He had forgotten his killing instincts, but he gained the power to protect.
Twenty years after they reunited, Dark Soul was utterly defeated, but it wasn’t that easy for Long Yi to kill Dark Soul either.
The one who could kill Dark Soul was the Shi Tian who only had the killing instinct.
Because only in front of that Shi Tian would he have a fatal weakness!
"Shi Tian, I’ve lost today, but I won’t always lose to you, until we meet again!"
Dark Soul covered his aching chest, threw a black fire bead at Long Yi, and used the dense fog after the explosion to escape with qinggong.
Gu Jiao touched her chin: "So this guy had Black Fire Pearls on him too, no wonder he knew to avoid it. But his Black Fire Pearls are a bit different from mine, his are more like smoke bombs. I’ll make a few of these later."
"Long Yi." Gu Jiao flipped off her horse, and the moment she landed, she realized her twisted right ankle had gone numb. She hopped over on her left foot and said to Long Yi, "Let me see if you’re injured."
Long Yi had a few scrapes and bruises on his body but no internal injuries.
Gu Jiao said, "I didn’t bring a First Aid Kit. I’ll clean your wounds when we get back."
Long Yi’s gaze fell on her foot.
She curved her lips and said, "It’s numb."
Long Yi nodded, bent down, and picked her up.
Gu Jiao: "..."
-
Gu Jiao decided to return the way she came to find Gu Changqing and Ye Qing.
She hoped they were all right.
With her head hanging downward, swinging back and forth, she said expressionlessly, "I want to ride a horse. Being carried this way makes me dizzy."
What Long Yi heard was: blah blah blah, ride a horse, dizzy.
——And then Gu Jiao got carried the whole way like that.
When Gu Jiao found Gu Changqing, he had already fallen unconscious.
Gu Jiao checked his pulse and examined his body, finding no new injuries, which made her secretly relieved.
Gu Jiao didn’t know that Dark Soul was curious about Gu Changqing’s recovery, she assumed Dark Soul didn’t want to waste time on him and just left.
Long Yi picked up Gu Changqing and placed him on the back of Black Wind King.
Soon they came across Ye Qing.
Ye Qing and his group were indeed injured, and not lightly.
This was really confusing.
Why did Dark Soul beat up Ye Qing but not Gu Changqing?
Was it based on looks?
Gu Jiao called for a carriage from the National Master Hall to transport Ye Qing and his group back.
Gu Chengfeng had been waiting in Qilin Palace for a while, and he felt a sense of relief seeing Gu Jiao return safely.
He was just about to ask Gu Jiao how she managed to escape when he saw Long Yi behind her.
He was greatly shocked: "What’s going on? Why is Long Yi here?"
Gu Jiao spread her hands: "I’d like to know that too."
Unfortunately, Long Yi couldn’t speak, write, or even communicate with people.
Wait a minute, Dark Soul could speak, so Long Yi... must have been able to too, right?
Was it amnesia, combined with how all the Dragon Shadow Guards in Zhan Country didn’t speak, that made him this way?
Long Yi started searching room by room.
Gu Jiao knew he was looking for Xiao Hen.
Gu Jiao still didn’t know how Long Yi came to Yan Country.
If he came alone, how did he find the way? He didn’t even remember who he was and probably wouldn’t remember the way back to Yan Country.
If he didn’t come alone, then who brought him here?
So far, he hadn’t shown any intention of meeting up with anyone.
Gu Jiao’s instinct told her that Long Yi wasn’t sent by Princess Xinyang to protect her and Xiao Hen, but regardless of his purpose in coming to Yan Country, he didn’t forget his little master.
Watching him tirelessly push open each door to find Xiao Hen, Gu Jiao walked over, tugged at his sleeve, and said, "Ahen isn’t here. I’ll have Gu Chengfeng take you to find him."
Gu Chengfeng shivered and pointed at himself: "Why me?"
Being alone with a bigshot like Long Yi was terrifying, okay?
Gu Chengfeng cleared his throat and asked, "Aren’t you going back to the Duke Residence?"
Gu Jiao said, "I still have something to do."
After treating Long Yi’s injuries, Gu Jiao had Gu Chengfeng put him and the unconscious emperor onto the carriage heading to the Duke Residence.
She then went to the ICU to check on Gu Changqing.
Gu Changqing’s physical condition shown earlier didn’t seem like someone who just woke up tonight. He must have woken up earlier and done something behind her back.
"Since he lived here, there must be some clues."
Gu Jiao started rummaging through the bedside table, medicine cabinet, and even under the bed. Sure enough, she found things that didn’t belong in this ward.
Gu Jiao pulled out a small box hidden in the bedside table. Opening it, she found some strange bottles and a few yellowed booklets with curled edges.
While reading, Gu Jiao furrowed her little brows: "Dead Warrior’s Entrance, Dead Warrior’s Success Secrets, Ten Days to Teach You to Be a Qualified Dead Warrior, Dead Warrior’s Self-cultivation... What kind of nonsense is this?"
At that moment, the National Master walked in.
Gu Jiao casually picked up a booklet and shook it, looking at him calmly.
The National Master, caught red-handed, cleared his throat and said, "I can explain."
