Chapter 288: Zhonggu

The White King's strength is slightly weaker than Gu Yunfeng, and in order to conceal his identity, he dare not use his martial spirit. This way, he will inevitably end up being beaten passively.
When he sent the retreat signal, he had already used secret methods to escape.
As the top killer in the Blood Plum Palace, Ye Lan has strong points in assassination, tracking, and escape. The moment he left the post, he disappeared into the night.
Only Jiang Hongming and two high-ranking Wuzongs were left, and they took Gu Linger straight to the imperial city.
Behind them, three half-step martial masters were chasing after them, and the distance with Jiang Hongming and others kept getting closer.
"His Majesty, even if we have the help of the'God Talisman', we are not as fast as the powerhouses in the half-step Wuwang realm. What's more, with this cumbersomeness, it slows down our speed. It's not a worry if we stay in the green mountains. If there is no firewood to burn, let her abandon her, it's better than losing her life." A high-rank Wuzong persuaded her heartily.
Jiang Hongming gritted his teeth and glanced at Gu Ling'er, who was bound by the golden chain. His pale face and a weak appearance were even more pitiful.
"I really don't want to take that risky move, it's all you forced me!" A ruthless look flashed in Jiang Hongming's eyes.
Raising his hand and patted it on the Qiankun bag, and took out a scarlet-red strange object that resembled a pill. There are many cavities on this strange object, and the scarlet aura is looming from it, like a strip of tiny insects, quite frightening. people.
This is the unique heart-biting Gu in the Hall of Blood Plums, and it was this kind of Gu that Xia Ningjing had in the first place.
"It's a pity for such a peerless beauty." Jiang Hongming said with emotion.
At this moment, Gu Ling'er had no power to resist, and could only let Jiang Hongming dominate her to take the Heart Eater Gu. At that moment, a heart-wrenching pain swept through her body, making Gu Ling'er who was so weak that she was about to coma instantly awake, two lines Tears ran down her pink cheeks.
The golden chain was loosened, and Gu Ling'er was heavily thrown off. Her body was limp on the ground, her body was suffering from severe pain due to the heart-eating Gu, and her body couldn't help but twitch slightly and convulse.
"Ling'er!" Gu Yunfeng hurriedly followed and helped her up.
The ancestor Tianxing and the ancestor Xuanxing glanced at each other, their eyes were full of anger, and they continued to chase in the direction where Jiang Hongming had left.
At the same time, in the darkness not far away, a thin figure witnessed all this. Immediately, his face became gloomy, and he slowly escaped into the darkness.
...
After Jiang Hongming and others fled, the Qingming City Forbidden Army quickly rushed to the post house and surrounded the broken post house. Accompanied by a large number of forbidden troops, Tianshi Junming led Gu Tianyi in the direction of Jiang Hongming's escape. Under the dim night, he saw Gu Linger, who was in a state of being in the state of being descended from the heavenly fox fairy.
Seeing her'safe and sound', Gu Tianyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Big brother, what happened?" Gu Tianyi suppressed the anger in his heart as much as possible to keep himself calm.
"It's Ye Lan. Ye Lan came and brought some helpers. Their goal is Linger." Gu Yunfeng said.
"Ye Lan?"
He is the killer of the Blood Plum Palace, why would he appear in the heavily guarded Qing Ming City? Moreover, the post house of Sanzong is the most important thing. Gu Tianyi has been to the post house. From the traces, it can be seen that the fighting was fierce.
Such a fierce battle is bound to arouse the awareness of the Qingming City Forbidden Army. How can they have such courage?
In addition, Gu Ling'er is surrounded by three half-step martial masters, including Gu Yunfeng, Tianxing ancestor, and Xuanxing ancestor, and half-step martial arts kings, who are already among the peak powers in the domain. Could it be that the Blood Plum Palace would dispatch at least three such pinnacle experts for Gu Ling'er?
This is totally unreasonable.
"Tian Yi, the reason for this is somewhat complicated. At that time, the two ancestors, Tian Xing and Xuan Xing, were not present. They obviously got the news in advance, made plans, and came prepared. Ling'er was once held hostage by them. They gave up Ling'er only after the two ancestors were chasing after him." Gu Yunfeng said.
Gu Tianyi nodded, took out the hooded cloak from Qiankun's bag, and put it on Gu Ling'er to cover the state of Tianhu Fairy descending for her.
They tried their best to deal with Gu Ling'er, and 80% of them were related to Gu Ling'er's banished body.
Gu Tianyi looked at Gu Ling'er, except that he was a little weak from using Tianhu Xianxiang, there seemed to be nothing wrong.
"Ling'er, can you feel anything unusual?" Gu Tianyi asked with concern.
Gu Ling'er shook his head and said, "When I was dropped by them, my whole body was in pain, but now it's better, but my arm is a little sore..."
She said, rubbing her arms.
He rolled up his sleeves unintentionally, and suddenly, scarlet lines were revealed. Like a spider web, it is attached to Gu Linger's tender lotus root arm.
Gu Tianyi couldn't be more familiar with this kind of pattern. Before Xia Ningjing's death, the whole body was covered with such patterns, which was shocking.
This is Heart Devouring Gu!
"It's the Heart Devouring Gu of the Blood Plum Palace!" Gu Yunfeng exclaimed.
On the other hand, Gu Tianyi's face became more and more gloomy, his eyes fixed on the blood marks on Gu Linger's wrist, his eyes gradually filled with killing intent.
"If there is anything wrong with Ling'er, I swear, I must flatten the Blood Plum Palace!" Gu Tianyi gritted his teeth.
He looked at Gu Ling'er with a strong smile in front of him with pity, and felt more distressed, and put her upstairs in his arms.
"Ling'er, don't worry, I must find this person with this Gu, and let him relieve the Heart-Eater Gu for you. Don't worry, I won't let you have trouble." Gu Tianyi said.
"Brother Tianyi, Ling'er believes you, but, for the sake of Ling'er's pitifulness, should you stay at the post house tonight and accompany Ling'er well?" Gu Ling'er said pitifully.
"Yes, I will always be with you." Gu Tianyi nodded quickly.
He knew in his heart that Gu Ling'er was just holding on, she didn't want to show any discomfort or sadness, she was afraid that Gu Tianyi would be even more sad.
It's just that the name of Heart-Eater Gu is frightening, but anyone who lives in Gu has never heard of anyone who has survived.
On the way back, Gu Tianyi hugged Gu Ling'er, thoughtful in his heart.
"Senior Jian Xian, do me a favor." He said.
"Do you want me to take control of your body, use my ability to find the person who planted Gu, and force him to unlock the Heartbreaking Gu for Gu Linger?" Qing Ming Sword Immortal asked.
"Yes, no matter what the price is paid, I don't want to let Ling'er have something to do." Gu Tianyi said.
Sword Immortal Qingming sighed and said, "This is such a big Qingming City. It's not easy to find such a person. What's more, things tonight have shown that the Blood Plum Palace must be related to the Qingming Kingdom imperial family. I control your body, and the combat power is not enough to make a fuss in Qingming City. As the royal family of Qingming Kingdom, the Jiang family has ruled Qingming Kingdom for thousands of years. Their background is beyond the reach of the Three Sects. "
"I know all of this, but... as long as there is a chance, I have to try it. I can't... watch Ling'er fall to the fate of Xia Ningjing, being tortured to death by the Heart-Eater Gu." Gu Tianyi Tao.
"In fact, if you don't want this little girl to die, there is another simpler way besides finding the person who planted Gu." Qing Ming Sword Immortal said.
"Huh? What way?"
"Awaken the body of the banished immortal."
"..."
