Chapter 202: Calm in the Blink of an Eye
At this moment, the once bustling Xuan Yi Sect was now a scene of ruins and devastation, with most of its pavilions, towers, and halls collapsed, even the Protective Mountain Formation had been breached.
Facing the overwhelming forces of the Bi Bo Sect and the Shadow Leopard clan, the Xuan Yi Sect was completely powerless to resist, and just when the sect leader of Xuan Yi Sect was about to perish, Gu Chen appeared.
"You are..."
The sect leader of Bi Bo Sect, along with the chieftain of the Shadow Leopard clan, both looked at Gu Chen with a trace of suspicion and uncertainty.
On the Xuan Yi Sect's side, there were also countless people familiar with Gu Chen.
After all, due to Ling Fei and Ke Lan, he had indeed garnered much enmity on ordinary days.
"Isn't that the medicine boy under Master Lu's care from the Herbal Valley, why would he appear here?" many people wondered as they looked at Gu Chen in confusion.
"Herbal Valley's medicine boy?" As grandmasters of the Huanxu Realm, the sect leader of Bi Bo Sect and the chieftain of the Shadow Leopard clan, who had extremely acute hearing, naturally heard this remark.
Even the sect leader of Xuan Yi Sect looked at Lu Qingfeng, the Elder of Herbal Valley, with a trace of confusion, asking, "Is this your disciple?"
Lu Qingfeng, a reverend old man, his age-worn eyes stared at Gu Chen, sensing that he was starkly different from the usual days.
If the usual Gu Chen was like a pearl covered in dust in order to conceal himself, being subdued.
Then today, with no need for concealment, he was like an extraordinary divine sword, washed away from its mundane sheen, about to be unsheathed!
The gap between the two was immensely large, and Lu Qingfeng, who was familiar with Gu Chen, recognized it immediately.
At this moment, Ling Fei and two others were also binding the disheartened Liao Yun and brought him before the crowd.
"You treacherous disciple!"
Seeing Liao Yun, the sect leader of Xuan Yi Sect was so angry that he almost spat out another mouthful of blood.
"Master!"
Seeing this, Ke Lan immediately looked anxious as she supported the sect leader of Xuan Yi Sect.
Zhao Yi did similarly, quickly helping Lu Qingfeng.
"Zhao Yi, what is this?" Lu Qingfeng looked at the honest giant before him, puzzled
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yi shook his head and said, "Master Lu, you'll understand if you just watch."
Primarily because even Zhao Yi didn't know how to describe it with words, as he was still shocked as well.
"Fei'er, Lan'er, what exactly is going on here?" the sect leader of Xuan Yi Sect and the elders were also intensely puzzled.
However, Ling Fei and Ke Lan both shook their heads, indicating that everyone should just watch quietly.
"Who exactly are you!" At this time, the sect leader of Bi Bo Sect regained his ability to move and looked at Gu Chen with a wary face.
He didn't believe that a mere medicine boy could possess such power.
He even suspected that the Gu Chen before him was disguised by some reclusive old monster from the Xuan Yi Sect.
"So this is your Xuan Yi Sect's last resort!" the sect leader of Bi Bo Sect exclaimed coldly.
At this moment, Gu Chen alone blocked all the forces of the Bi Bo Sect and the Shadow Leopard clan. His expression was calm, neither sad nor happy, standing there like a divine mountain, with no one daring to approach him carelessly.
"Who are you, sir? Could it really be that you are a reclusive expert from Xuan Yi Sect?" the chieftain of the Shadow Leopard clan asked.
"Not exactly, I am not that old," Gu Chen shook his head.
Upon hearing this, the sect leader of Bi Bo Sect and the chieftain of the Shadow Leopard clan immediately frowned, wondering if the person before them was indeed a young man.
"Since you are neither a reclusive old monster from Xuan Yi Sect, then why insist on involving yourself? Today, we both can give you face, if you leave now, we can let bygones be bygones regarding your previous actions!" the chieftain of the Shadow Leopard clan said sternly.
"Give me face?" Gu Chen heard this and immediately laughed.
Seeing this, the chieftain of the Shadow Leopard clan's expression darkened and said, "What, you are not willing?"
"Chieftain, why waste words with him? He's just a brash young man, just kill him directly!" Seeing Gu Chen's insolence, a hotheaded grandmaster of the Shadow Leopard clan shouted angrily.
At this moment, the sect leader of Bi Bo Sect and others also frowned, struggling to grasp Gu Chen's cultivation realm.
Gu Chen didn't speak but looked around at everyone, knowing that after intervening today, it was impossible for him to return to the Xuan Yi Sect as before.
However, this was no concern, as he had already reached the late stages of the Huanxu Realm, even approaching perfection, soon to enter the merger of dual bodies.
Leaving now was not necessarily a bad choice.
"Throughout this time, thank you for your care, Master Lu," Gu Chen turned around and bowed to Lu Qingfeng.
At this moment, the Elder of the Herbal Valley had a complex expression because Zhao Yi had just briefly explained Gu Chen's identity, and even he felt a deep shock.
"Could it really be just a medicine boy?" Seeing this scene, immediately, countless people from both Bi Bo Sect and the Shadow Leopard clan frowned.
"Go to hell!"
At this moment, the previously disrespectful grandmaster from the Shadow Leopard clan stepped out, roared, and as the earth shook, his body turned into an afterimage and charged to kill.
Puff!
The next instant, blood spurted, and to the shocked eyes of everyone, this grandmaster from the Shadow Leopard clan was killed on the spot!
"What?!"
This scene truly frightened everyone including the sect leader of Bi Bo Sect and the chieftain of the Shadow Leopard clan.
"Who exactly are you?!" the chieftain of the Shadow Leopard clan shouted.
