Extracting Billions Of Toxins And Tempering An Unsullied Body

Chapter 299: Sudden Bad News

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In a small town, inside an inn.

Early in the morning, Gu Xi arrived at the first floor early to have breakfast.

After a night of recovery, coupled with the bountiful harvest in the Secret Realm, he could not help but be in a good mood.

“After the Spirit-chasing Competition is over, it’s time to set foot on the road back to the Eastern Continent.”

As he ate his breakfast, Gu Xi made plans.

It had been quite some time since he came to the Southern Continent, and he did not know how the situation in the Eastern Continent was now. However, he was 100% sure that those people had been searching everywhere for him during this period of time.

Fortunately, Elder Yun had returned with him this time, which made him feel at ease.

Gu Xi was very clear that the east continent had probably already set up the dragon gate array and was waiting for him to go back and challenge it.

Shaking his head helplessly, Gu Xi no longer thought about it. He stuffed his breakfast into his stomach in two or three bites and got up to go back to his room to meditate.

There were still two days left before the end of the competition. He had to adjust his condition to his peak during this period of time.

This was the key to implementing the plan.

However, Gu Xi had not even taken a few steps when the conversation between two people at a table not far away entered his ears.

“Sigh, I heard that several disciples of the Medicine King Valley have been captured by that Wang Zhan.”

“That’s right, there really isn’t a single good person in the Hehuan Sect. I heard that a woman from the medicine King Valley was tortured quite miserably. Moreover, I also heard that a person seemed to have died. I don’t know if it’s true or not.”

“Tsk tsk tsk, that Gu Xi has already died in the Secret Realm. This Wang Zhan is really vicious and merciless. He really wants to kill the Medicine King Valley’s team here.”

“That’s right. After all, the Medicine King Valley is a first-class great sect faction. Once the news of the end of the competition spreads, the Medicine King Valley will definitely not let Wang Zhan off easily.”

“You can’t put it that way. Although the Medicine King Valley is a first-class great sect faction, after all, most of their disciples focus on refining medicine. Even if the Medicine King Valley wants to find trouble with Wang Zhan, will the Hehuan Sect agree?”

“I think this matter will end in nothing. A few disciples died. The Medicine King Valley won’t go to the extent of attracting trouble because of this.”

The two of them discussed this matter while drinking wine. Clearly, they did not think highly of the Medicine King Valley.

However, these were not what Gu Xi cared about. What he cared about was the few people that Wang Zhan had captured.

In the entire Spirit-chasing Competition, other than himself, there were only three disciples of the Medicine King Valley. They were Liu Qingqing, Wang Shi, and Cao Hua.

The first two people had disappeared after breaking through the layers of encirclement not long ago. As for Cao Hua, he had not seen this person after entering this Secret Realm.

“Where is Wang Zhan?”

Gu Xi had appeared in front of the two of them at some point in time. His voice was low, and one could not tell whether he was happy or angry.

“Who are you?!” Looking at the rude Gu Xi, one of them was clearly a little displeased.

“Let me ask you again, where is Wang Zhan?” Gu Xi said faintly, and the temperature around them dropped slightly.

“Go back to where you came from!”

That person snorted coldly, obviously not intending to answer this question.

However, in the next moment, a suffocating pressure whistled out from the body of the green-clothed man in front of them. In the blink of an eye, it suppressed the two of them until their faces turned red.

The two of them looked at each other in horror, and only then did they realize that this person in front of them was not ordinary.

“For the last time, tell me, or else you’ll die here.” Gu Xi spoke again, and there was already some murderous intent in the air.

Naturally, what happened here attracted the attention of the surrounding people. Many people turned their eyes to this place. There were even a few law enforcement officers of Daluo Sect who appeared. As long as Gu Xi dared to make a move here, they would immediately expel him from the competition.

“300 miles north… Safe Zone No. 5…”

The man gritted his teeth and barely managed to utter a few words.

“Thank you.” Gu Xi nodded and immediately withdrew all of his pressure. Then, he took out a few spirit stones from his storage bag and threw them on the counter not far away. “Here’s the money for the two of you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared from where he was like a ghost.

The inn was silent.

Even though Gu Xi had left for a short while, everyone was still stunned.

“This person is… so terrifying!”

A law enforcement officer of the Daluo Sect subconsciously swallowed their saliva.

The few people on the side nodded in agreement. They could not help but feel fortunate that that person did not really kill anyone here. Otherwise, with their strength, they would only be sending themselves to their deaths.

“However, from the looks of it, that person just now… seems a little familiar.”

At this moment, one of them suddenly opened his mouth.

When he said this, a few people also fell into deep thought. This appearance did indeed seem like they had seen it somewhere before.

Not long after, a person suddenly cried out in surprise. “I remember now. This fellow is that Medicine King Valley’s Gu Xi!”

As soon as these words were said, all the people present had their mouths agape, their faces full of disbelief.

“Something big is going to happen!”

Soon, everyone reacted and left the inn one after another, rushing towards Safe Zone No. 5, which was 300 miles away.

…

At the same time, in Safe Zone No. 5.

In the square in the center of the town stood a high platform.

Around the high platform, there were many contestants on the streets and even on the rooftops. Some of them were here to watch the show, while others were allies who had worked with Wang Zhan for a short period of time.

Ever since he had narrowly escaped from the Secret Realm, Wang Zhan had been looking for traces of Liu Qingqing while preparing to welcome the end of the competition.

As the competition was nearing its end, many teams were trying their best to earn points in order to obtain a good ranking. However, many teams felt that they had no hope of obtaining a good ranking. Instead, they turned their attention to the Secret Realms on the planar battlefield.

If they could not obtain a ranking, they had to bring something out.

Many people had this thought.

However, Wang Zhan knew what these people were thinking. Therefore, he used the name of the Hehuan Sect to buy the points in the hands of these teams at a high price, whether it was spirit stones or Cultivation Methods.

In short, Wang Zhan not only bought the points but also bought the last few days of the competition for them to earn points. After that, all the points would be handed over to him.

It was also because of this method that the Hehuan Sect’s points jumped to first place in the rankings. They had even surpassed the second place, the Vast Expanse Sword Domain, by tens of thousands of points.

If nothing unexpected happened, the champion of this competition had already been decided.

However, the other teams did not give up just like that. To them, the first place was already an unreachable existence. Being able to enter the top ten was enough.

A battle quietly unfolded.
