Gu Xu still clearly remembered that a few months ago, he and Chu Fengge flew from Yishui County to Qingzhou Mansion to solve the Lu family's murderous mansion with a flying sword.

It was his first flight in this world.

On that day, Yishan was overcast with lightning and thunder, which was prohibitive.

And today, when he flew to Qingzhou along the same route, he only felt like a world away.

On the one hand, it is because today's Yishan Mountain is clear and cloudless, and the towering snow peaks shine in the sun.

On the other hand, it is because of the change of his identity.

While flying, he speculated in his mind over and over again about the various situations that might be encountered on the way to the rescue—which strong men would the Great Qi Imperial Court send to garrison the execution ground? How will they cope with their ability to move through space? Will there be a formation for the forbidden air? After successfully rescuing Chen Jisheng and others, how should he escape with them?

It's just that somehow, even after considering a thousand possibilities, he still has a sense of foreboding in his heart.

It was like a haze in front of me.

It's hard to get rid of, it's hard to disperse.

A few minutes later, his hunch became a reality.

A large, golden ship floated in the air, blocking his path.

The ship is more than 40 zhang long and nearly 20 zhang wide, and the mast stands high on the deck.

From afar, it looks like a flying beast.

"Flying boats."

Gu Xu said silently in his heart.

When he first went to the ruins of Laoshan Mountain, he took such a "floating flying boat".

I have to admit that standing in front of this thing, the visual impact is really strong, giving people a strong sense of oppression, as if it may open its bloody mouth and devour people at any time.

At the very front of the deck of the Floating Boat, he saw a familiar figure.

"Gu Xu, let's meet again." I saw her smiling, looking at him from afar and saying.

This person is none other than Princess Zhaoning.

She was wearing a moon-white men's robe at the moment, her long black hair was tied high above her head with a small white jade crown, and her beautiful face was as bright and moving as a spring flower.

But Gu Xu's gaze didn't stay on her for too long.

Because beside her stood a more important person who deserved his attention.

It was a small, dark-skinned older man, dressed in a plain cloth shirt, and looked like an old farmer toiling in the fields.

"I didn't expect that this time, the Great Qi National Master would personally come to arrest me," Gu Xu secretly exclaimed in his heart, "I thought his injuries hadn't healed yet." ”

He realized that although he could now use the "Astrolabe" to spy on the fortune of Mohu in the future, there would still be deviations when it came to cultivating monks who were far stronger than himself.

At the same time, he also found several serious problems -

First, he was really impulsive when he flew to Qingzhou this time, and he hit the road almost without thinking about it, which was completely inconsistent with his usual cautious style, and he didn't even think about hiding himself during the flight.

Although this matter involves Chen Jisheng and others, he is a little impulsive, and it is quite reasonable.

But he always felt that at the moment he made his decision, someone quietly erased the reason in his mind with an invisible hand.

Second, despite the fact that he was wearing a mask, Princess Zhaoning and the others still intercepted him unmistakably on his way.

This made him wonder if the mask had suddenly lost its effectiveness.

Luo Sishou said that this mask is based on the way of cause and effect - but in Gu Xu's memory, the Great Qi Dynasty did not have a strong person who was proficient in the art of cause and effect. He couldn't think of anyone who could break the mask.

"The most critical question now is, how do I need to escape this encirclement?" His gaze grew heavier.

He had just shuttled from Dengzhou Port to Yishui County, and for the time being, he could not use the "astrolabe" to build a space channel again.

And the Great Qi National Master is best at one of the talismans, called the "Heaven and Earth Prison Cage", which is claimed to be able to seal everything in the world.

The "Nine Baby Snake Demon" was sealed in the underground of Qingzhou Mansion by this rune array.

It can be said that once the cage is formed, Gu Xu will be unable to fly.

And in the case of not being able to shuttle through space, if he wants to compare speed, he will definitely not be able to compare with a veritable saint powerhouse like the national teacher.

Unconsciously, his gaze swept over the "floating flying boat", and then landed on the towering Yi Mountain not far away.

An idea popped into his mind.

…………

While Gu Xu was looking at the national teacher, the national teacher was also looking at Gu Xu.

The gaze of the national teacher is extremely complicated, and the appreciation is mixed with regret and regret.

He could feel that the True Yuan aura emanating from Gu Xu's body had reached the peak of the Fourth Realm, and his coercion had even surpassed the level of an ordinary Fifth Realm cultivator.

After cultivating for about a year, he has reached such a height.

The talent of this young man can be said to be rare in a thousand years.

"It would be nice if he was still working for the court." The national teacher sighed and thought silently.

In fact, the national teacher still can't understand why Gu Xu would collude with ghosts and collaborate with the enemy to commit treason.

But the emperor's order could not be wrong.

Even though there were a thousand doubts in his heart, the national teacher could only obey orders.

"A monk who is less than the fifth realm needs a strong saint to take action in order to capture him," Princess Zhaoning next to her sighed softly, "Gu Xu's incident today alone is enough to go down in history." ”

The national teacher slowly raised his hand and gathered the true yuan at his fingertips.

He used heaven and earth as paper and true yuan as ink, and began to build a huge rune array.

In an instant, the black clouds obscured the sunlight, and the sky became much darker, as if someone had poured a basin of ink into the sky, and the ink was spreading out around the center of the national teacher.

But Gu Xu's speed of escape was faster than the speed at which the national teacher constructed the formation.

He stepped on the black spatial crack, turned into a black lightning, and through many short-distance teleportations, he went straight towards the snow peak of Yishan Mountain, and disappeared from everyone's field of vision in a blink of an eye.

He knew that with his current strength, even if he used all his hole cards, it would be impossible to compete with the strong saints.

And in front of the saint who can tear through space and cross thousands of miles, running away is equally useless.

"The only one who can deal with a saint is another saint." This is a sentence that Gu Xu has read in the cultivation classics.

What he had to do now was to find another Saint powerhouse to help him through the current crisis.

As long as he disrupts the situation and restrains the national teacher, then Gu Xu has the possibility of escaping by taking advantage of the chaos.

Coincidentally, there happened to be a strong saint on Yishan.

"I'm sorry, Miss Lu," he sighed silently with a helpless smile on his face, "I'm going to disturb your dreams again." ”
