C2034 Collusive Qi(last Part)

"When he crippled my cultivation, you didn't think about our relationship; when he chased me away to face the danger in the Sacred Land, you didn't think about our relationship either. Why is it that now that my cultivation has recovered, after going up another level, you think about our relationship? Those who live in seclusion say that you're the biggest fox in the world, and that's true. "

His gaze was as cold as a venomous snake, staring straight at Gu Taixu. He said lightly: "Mountain Lord Gu, if you were in my place, would you be able to trust someone like me?"

If Fellow Wu Xuan's cultivation has not recovered, even if the two of us were lucky enough to be sent to another place, I would definitely not invite you to join me. For us to be able to achieve our current reputations, if we do not even know about this principle, then after all these years, wouldn't we be able to live up to our expectations? "

Seeing that Wu Xuan had already torn his face apart, Gu Taixu couldn't be bothered to feign ignorance anymore. He gave a faint smile and said:

"If I were to say something, I can't even guess what kind of strange thing that Senior Yu Ling has. Furthermore, Fellow Daoist Lin is not someone who can join hands with me in this dangerous situation. Furthermore, he is not someone from the underworld. I believe that you are well aware of the dangers of this place, and I believe that you are well aware that just with the strength of the two of us, we will not be able to protect ourselves. Only by joining hands will we be able to maximize the benefits we can obtain and break out of this encirclement. "

The two of them had actually been brought to this place by a stroke of luck. Upon hearing these words, Lin Bai's eyes could not help but turn slightly cold as he inwardly lamented the fact that fortune was playing with people. To be honest, Lin Bai had thought about it before. He wanted to borrow Gu Taixu's or Hundred Spirit Apostle's power to team up and deal with Wu Xuan, so that he could eliminate the unstable factor of the totem.

But now, it would seem that under the blessings of this world, his plans would come to naught if the two of them were to team up together.

Although his plan failed, Lin Bai did not feel that it was a pity. Wu Xuan was not a good person, but his smile was like that of a living Buddha, and his heart was like a snake and scorpion. Even though he was calm and collected, Gu Taixu was not a good person either.

Furthermore, compared to Wu Xuan, who was in the open enemy position, Gu Taixu, who was hiding in the shadows, had to be more cautious. Now that the two of them had teamed up together, it saved him a lot of fear. Dealing with one was fine, but dealing with two was fine. There was no point in having one less.

Furthermore, based on Lin Bai's understanding of Wu Xuan and Gu Taixu, how could he not be clear about it. Even if the two of them had reached an agreement, it was impossible for them to be like him and the water spirit beasts, or Chen Baian and Zhang Sanming, who could place their lives in the hands of each other. There must be a gap between the two of them, and even if they were to join forces temporarily, they were bound to be wary of each other.

This so-called alliance was just a temporary benefit link. If they were to encounter any real danger or great benefits, they would start a fight without having to do anything themselves!

"Alright, since things have come to this, I'll believe you for the time being!" Seeing that Gu Taixu had already spoken, Wu Xuan thought for a moment before laughing out loud. He was very clear that with Gu Taixu's words, if the two of them were to work together, it would definitely be a victory in a one-on-one battle. And if he could use Gu Taixu's power to get rid of Lin Bai, that would be even better. Furthermore, this was also an unprofitable business, it would not be too late for him to kick off Gu Taixu once he had reaped some benefits.

"You and I are both reclusive people, so we should be of the same mind and work together to advance and retreat." Hearing Wu Xuan agree to his suggestion, Gu Taixu laughed heartily. He then said slowly, "With the two of us working together, where else can't we go to the Sacred Land?"

"Since we've talked about this holy land, you're quite knowledgeable, and you know much more about the secrets of this place than I do. I want to ask you why this place is in such a state of disarray, why it seems to be filled with battles over martial arts, and where exactly Hundred Spirit Stones came from. From what I see, he seems to be quite familiar with this place." Wu Xuan didn't say much upon hearing this. He straightforwardly threw out the doubts in his heart, hoping to get some answers from Gu Taixu.

As Wu Xuan's voice fell, Lin Bai's heart tightened. He then focused all of his attention and began to listen carefully. It must be known that Gu Taixu was the one who could enter Karakorum when the jade pieces gathered; moreover, Gu Taixu was the one who brought Old Man Hundred Spirit House along with him.

Most importantly, Gu Taixu and Wu Xuan were different. Gu Taixu was the sect head of a sect, and the secrets that he had to learn from the heritage of the sect far surpassed rogue cultivators like Wu Xuan and Master Dajun.

In the hidden world, a wandering cultivator is called a ghost because they lack this inheritance. The strength of a lone soul wild ghost could be raised, it could be strong enough to contend against the masters like Gu Taixu, but it was unable to obtain these inheritances. No one knew if Gu Taixu, the sect head of the small mountains, knew of the secrets of this place.

"Mountain Head Gu, this is our first time working together. I hope you won't hide anything. If you don't even have this little bit of trust, what's the point of our alliance?" Seeing Gu Taixu's hesitation, Wu Xuan sneered.

"Fellow Daoist Wu Xuan, you're overthinking things. I'm not worrying about you. The Holy Land is a strange place. Also, Fellow Lin and Senior Bai Ling have gone off somewhere already. I'm afraid the wall has ears." When Gu Taixu heard this, he hesitated for a moment before laughing lightly. His expression suddenly became nervous as he looked around and said slowly, "After listening for so long, it should be time for Fellow Daoist to show himself!"

Did this old kid discover us?! He turned his head to look at Lin Bai, but when he saw Lin Bai's calm expression, his heart hung at the back of his throat, as if it had fallen back into his stomach. In a flash, he understood the meaning of Gu Taixu's sudden words.

The Yin Master water beast could understand, but how could Lin Bai not understand? Gu Taixu's words were just like knocking out a tiger in the middle of a mountain. He wanted to use this senseless sentence to probe if there were people hiding in the surroundings.

However, Gu Taixu's words came as a surprise. If Lin Bai wasn't confident in his hidden skills and his law domain's protection, which allowed him to escape all detection, he might have fallen into Gu Taixu's trap.

However, just as Lin Bai's thoughts were changing, as Gu Taixu saw that no one was responding, he frowned. The movements of his hands kept changing, and along his body, an aura similar to a primordial beast was suddenly produced. It then turned into a hurricane, and like a bolt of lightning, rushed out in every direction!

While that aura was strange and unpredictable, Lin Bai could feel a majestic blood aura being transmitted from that aura. It was as if what was charging at him was not an aura but a true ferocious beast!

When the aura swept out, the ruins of the surrounding buildings immediately disintegrated like chickens and dogs, and countless dust and sand instantly suffused the area. If it were not for the fact that Lin Bai had been hiding behind a huge boulder, Gu Taixu's attack would have exposed him to the two of them.

Before he killed the young beast, he had chopped its corpse into a thousand pieces and turned it into a pile of meat paste. This meant that this person was extremely shrewd and unfathomable, and his actions were extremely cunning.

It seemed that he had underestimated this Gu Taixu from before! Whether it was his methods or his scheming, he could definitely be one of the top people in the hidden world! Sensing Gu Taixu's actions, Lin Bai's eyes turned cold, and his heart grew cold.

This time, he had probably met a very powerful opponent! If he was truly allowed to form an alliance with Wu Xuan and Wu Haoyu and when they sent a killing attack towards him, it would be a bit difficult for him to contend against them by himself.

"Mountain Master Gu, aren't you a little too suspicious? This holy land is so vast, and the sect's teleportation power is so unpredictable. Who knows where this little brat Lin and Hundred Spirit are now. Who knows if they might have already died here." Wu Xuan, who had been watching Gu Taixu's actions coldly from the sidelines, spoke up. His tone was filled with teasing and ridicule.

"If I wasn't being cautious, how could I have gotten to where I am today?" Hearing this, Gu Taixu did not seem to mind at all. He laughed lightly and said, "That Fellow Lin is quite meticulous and smart. If he is not inferior to you and me, I can't help but be on my guard."

"No need to speak any more nonsense. Just what do you know? Tell me as soon as possible!" Wu Xuan frowned slightly, too lazy to continue fighting with Gu Taixu. He revealed a look of displeasure as he spoke in a low voice.

"Fellow Daoist Wu Xuan, don't be impatient." Gu Taixu chuckled upon hearing this. He looked around and slowly said, "Fellow Daoist Wu Xuan, do you know where we are right now? Where we are?"

"Where to?" Wu Xuan frowned and looked doubtfully at Gu Taixu. He slowly said, "Where else could this be? Isn't it just an ancient ruin, an ancient ruin from some ancient sect that once flourished in seclusion?"

"Fellow Daoist Wu Xuan, please calm down and let me explain slowly." Seeing the impatience on Wu Xuan's face, he chuckled and said: "You were actually only half right. When I first obtained the Ancient Profound Jade, I thought that this was all it was, but when I flipped through the sect's ancient records, I realized that it was not like that at all!"

"What's so strange about this place?" Hearing this, Wu Xuan was stunned, then his expression immediately became serious as he spoke in a low voice.

"This place is indeed an ancient ruin. It's a ruin that was once flourished in the hidden world, but is now dilapidated." Gu Taixu stroked his beard, his eyes gleaming as he spoke word by word, "However, this sect is not our sect of reclusion, but a grandmaster!"
