Chapter 628: The Purpose of Rescue
Gu Sanqiu was rushing over. Although Kong had not been killed yet, the actual situation was not much better.
"What should we do? Let's run to a populated area. There should be someone who can help us!"
Paimeng grabbed Kong's hair anxiously and said, "If those people are practitioners, they should be able to contact the people in Liyue Harbor. It's much better than us running around all the time!"
"There are no immortal caves nearby. The place where cultivators gather is the most likely place for reinforcements to appear."
"No, we can't bring danger to others."
Kong was injured, but he gritted his teeth and did not slow down, running in a more remote direction.
"But that would put us in even greater danger!"
Paimon had tears in his eyes: "And your injury will only get worse if you don't treat it. This can't go on!"
Kong was suddenly stunned: "Yes, this won't work."
"Let's run separately. Those people are targeting me and won't chase you."
Kong said hurriedly: "As long as you can escape, go back the way we came and find someone. As long as you can find Sanqiu or Master Zhongli, I can be rescued!"
"Be obedient, Paimon!"
“Where are you running to!”
The cult members behind him were already chasing after him with roars, and without exception, they were all covered in wounds. Those were the damage caused by the talismans that Gu Sanqiu gave him to use against powerful enemies.
"Of course I'm heading here."
A rather gloomy voice sounded, and the expressions of all the cult members changed drastically. When they looked up, they could only see a huge demon-subduing pestle falling from the sky, hitting all the enemies!
Gu Sanqiu landed with his feet on the green light. Even with his blue bar, he felt a little uncomfortable traveling so fast, so he attacked a little too hard just now, and the young couple were blown away by the aftermath of the attack.
"Sanqiu! Come and check Kong's injuries!"
"Your words easily make people think that he is going to die."
Gu Sanqiu reached out and transmitted elemental power to stabilize Kong's condition: "How come you are so badly injured? Didn't I give you a bunch of things? There should be some for healing."
“This is the result after use.”
Kong coughed up two mouthfuls of dirty blood: "Much better, but how did you know we were here?"
"A big boss told me to come over and put out the fire. If it weren't for the mismatch in gender and age, I would have doubted whether we were brothers."
Gu Sanqiu patted Kong's shoulder and said, "Are you really not the illegitimate son of my father and Wendy? You were in danger and you asked me to fly back from Mondstadt to save people."
"Obviously that doesn't exist, but don't you really care about the people you hit?"
Sora's expression was alert: "They shouldn't be dead, right?"
"I'm not dead, I was just sealed by the demon pestle. Do you think I'm the kind of person who only thinks about the beginning and not the end?"
Gu Sanqiu walked over and pulled out Brother En from the demon-subduing pestle.
"Since you are suspected of violent kidnapping, so... why am I telling you so much, Sora, are you going to come over and kill them to vent your anger?"
Kong shook his head, then reminded: "By the way, Sanqiu, these people have very strange pendants on them, which have been emitting a mysterious fluctuation. It is very likely used to notify their companions."
"A strange pendant?"
Gu Sanqiu knocked Brother Enren unconscious with one punch, then turned him over and over to examine him carefully, and finally found the thing.
But when he took off the pendant, a sense of danger instantly occupied his mind!
“Get out of the way!”
Gu Sanqiu threw the pendant, and the rock ridge shield turned into a huge spherical barrier that protected the three of them.
boom!
A golden bolt of lightning struck from the sky, turning the pendant and Brother Grace into black smoke.
"I'll go."
Gu Sanqiu took a breath and said, "Are you sure that it's just a tool to contact your companions?"
"should?"
After seeing this scene, Kong also became uncertain: "But when I saw them, this pendant was always in operation, and I don't have any good guesses."
"Interesting, could this thing actually be a suit?"
With the intimidating power of that golden lightning, Gu Sanqiu glanced at the number of cult members.
Well, he could try again. His guess should be correct.
Boom!
Another bolt of lightning struck down, and black smoke rose again. Gu Sanqiu frowned and looked at his rock ridge shield that was almost broken.
He just deliberately moved closer. It was terrifying that lightning of this power did not destroy the terrain and vegetation.
However, this also happened to confirm his guess.
"Do you have anything you want to ask, like where your sister is or something like that? If not, I'm going to clean them all up."
Kong was somewhat tempted, but then shook his head.
"If what you told me, Sanqiu, was not a lie, they wouldn't have told me where my sister was."
"Oh, I never lie to anyone. Honesty and reliability are words tailor-made for me, a person who burns incense."
Gu Sanqiu smiled and waved his hand: "In that case, let these guys with fake certificates say goodbye to the world on the ground."
When the lightning struck, all the members of the sect were scattered, without even a trace left.
At this moment, a golden light visible to the naked eye slowly fell from the sky, penetrated into Gu Sanqiu's body and then drilled into his mind, strengthening the seal against the black will.
?
Working for the big guy in heaven actually has such benefits?
Gu Sanqiu was surprised. If that was the case, it seemed to explain why he was asked to come back to solve the problem here.
This was an opportunity that Zhongli specially prepared for himself. Of course, it could also be understood as a father's version of kindness, which was never made clear, but could be truly felt.
"But the boss is really not picky. He wanted to kill me a while ago."
But this also happens to be in line with the identity of Tianli, the calmness and orderliness that transcends everything, and the extraordinary rules of response.
If you have a rough understanding, you can also call it an extremely powerful imperial mentality.
"Interesting, interesting. I was wondering who blocked our plan. Turns out it was His Highness from Liyue."
Gu Sanqiu suddenly turned his head and looked at the monster that appeared opposite him with a vigilant look.
Even I didn't realize how such a thing approached me. It's a very dangerous existence!
"Heh, during the last battle of the Golden Bell, you took away the bodies of those people. It seems that you have made some progress in your research. Otherwise, how could you walk around on the ground so openly?"
"Ah, as expected of His Majesty of Liyue, you can actually remember what we did right away."
The monster smiled elegantly: "It's just a pity, because it is a very rare consumable item. One less is needed when one is used."
With spear in hand, the Dharma image soars into the air and the shield is activated again.
Gu Sanqiu narrowed his eyes: "So you are here to collect the debt from me?"
"No, no, Your Highness, we have said it long ago that we should not be enemies."
The monster looked at Kong who was standing beside him and said, "Originally, we wanted this young man to help us, but we didn't expect that in addition to that bastard Dain interfering, His Highness would also show up."
"Dainsleb?"
Gu Sanqiu turned his head and looked at Kong, who was protected by him behind him, and the latter nodded repeatedly.
"It's like this. A man with a sword suddenly appeared and cut through the encirclement. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to seize the opportunity to escape."
I was wondering how could these underworld people be so careless, but after all this time a big boss actually showed up. Dai Yin's ability to cause trouble to the abyss is truly high.
By the way, Jinmao’s halo as the protagonist has been confirmed. If Dai Yin hadn’t intervened, he might not have been able to hold on until he arrived.
"Hehehe, hiring someone to do something for you means you have to beat them half to death and then take them away directly. Got it, got it."
A strange laugh was heard, and Xiao Hei appeared at the side without anyone noticing. This made Gu Sanqiu feel a little hurt. Why did these people walk so silently?
"It's you. I thought you were still hiding in the cave, barely surviving."
"Hey, let's stop talking nonsense . Why don't you do me a favor?"
Xiao Hei took out a ferocious-looking halberd, and Gu Sanqiu's eyes were almost instantly locked on the weapon.
Unlike the weapons passed down in his family, could it be that this person really has nothing to do with his family?
"No, we have plenty of time to interact more before dawn."
The monster sank into the space crack: "Your Highness, there is also my old rival, let me give you a friendly reminder, the young man you want to protect is not that simple."
"We, you, and them, will be enemies or friends in the future, who can say for sure?"
