Chapter 84 The Chess Piece Hidden in the River and Sea, Gu Ming's Body
In this terrifying battle, Yue Qingning had already hidden far away, watching the huge tremors and terrifying gales that appeared from time to time in the sky. Even the dust in the air was turned into nothingness by the two forces clashing.
The violent collision even exceeded the space's tolerance, creating dazzling orbs of light that shone in the darkness like stars, only to be swallowed by the void the next second.
This level of combat is beyond the reach of her or even ordinary martial artists.
The deafening commotion finally subsided, but Yue Qingning was not relieved at all; instead, she became even more tense. This was no ordinary fight; it represented the actions of two opposing forces.
A draw is fine, but if one side becomes weak or loses, then what awaits them is a fatal blow and destruction.
The forces behind them will also not be spared.
Humans and monsters are mortal enemies, and neither side will let this opportunity slip by.
Grandpa Gu, please don't let anything happen to you, Jianghai City needs you.
Yue Qingning prayed, searching her surroundings aimlessly, but finding no trace of the city lord, her heart tightened. Could it be...?
"Bear, today I'll start by taking one of your bear paws as a snack with my drinks."
"I'll take your life next time!"
"Haha, Qingning, let's go."
A cheerful old man's voice rang out from high above. Upon hearing it, Yue Qingning felt the world lighten considerably. She then saw herself defying gravity and slowly rising into the air, before flying rapidly towards Jianghai City.
Grandpa Gu won.
In the battle with the Demon King, their arrogance was greatly diminished, and the Demon King would not dare to make any major moves for a short period of time.
In Yue Qingning's excited eyes, he saw the city lord, Grandpa Gu Ming.
However, at this moment, Grandpa Gu did not look very good either. His clothes were somewhat tattered, and there was even a faint trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
"Don't speak, let's get out of here first."
Gu Ming stabilized the boiling blood and qi within his body, enduring the injuries, and carried Yue Qingning as they flew rapidly towards Jianghai City.
A bright streak of light flashed across the dark sky and then disappeared into the wilderness.
Deep in the wilderness, two ominous crimson orbs of light appeared. Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be the eyes of a gigantic black bear, its body several tens of meters long.
The black bear roared angrily at the sky, and the surrounding monsters immediately prostrated themselves on the ground, trembling. It could be seen that one of the bear's paws was missing from one side of the black bear.
This was actually the demon king who had just fought with Gu Ming.
"You old human bastard, you actually still have the strength to cut off one of my arms."
"Could the rumors that his lifespan is nearing its end be false?"
"Then all my previous preparations were for nothing?"
"but..."
The terrifying black bear slowly lowered its head, looking at the now empty arm, and then its aura surged, with countless demonic energies spreading out.
In an instant, a perfectly intact bear paw had grown back.
"You think you can fool me with this method? You underestimate me, you old fool."
"This was a good opportunity, yet they didn't seize it to kill me. This already indicates that something is wrong."
"Even if you're not nearing the end of your life, you must have some health problems and can't fight at full strength."
The black bear's blood-red eyes seemed to see through an infinite distance, seeing the two flying figures, Gu Ming and Gu Ming.
It discovered something it had just overlooked.
"wrong."
"Something unusual must be going on. Old scoundrel Gu Ming's sudden venture into the wilderness must have a reason unknown to the demons. What could it be that would make him risk fighting me?"
"Furthermore, that old scoundrel Gu Ming is always cunning. Could he be doing this on purpose so I can see it?"
The Black Bear King was puzzled, but it knew that what Gu Ming was hiding was likely not simple.
It might even be related to its grand plan of dealing with demonic beasts.
"Pass on my secret order: halt all operations and tell the men to behave themselves."
"It's time for him to make a move."
"A piece that has been in motion for decades will soon become a dead piece if it is not moved."
"Gu Ming is always cunning, so just in case, we need to find out his true physical condition and the reason for his sudden foray into the wilderness..."
The Black Bear King spoke slowly, then turned around, the earth trembled, and he disappeared into the darkness.
Once the news arrives, we'll know for sure whether it's true or false.
It knew that the day it had been waiting for for decades was finally coming.
Soon, it will lead its army of demonic beasts to completely annihilate Jiang Haicheng.
You old scoundrel Gu Ming, I will personally send you on your way.
At the same time, a secret message from the depths of the wilderness crossed this infinite distance and arrived in Jianghai City.
Meanwhile, Gu Ming remained silent the entire way, traveling even faster than he had gone, which made Yue Qingning feel uneasy.
Why is Grandpa Gu behaving so strangely? What happened?
Moreover, she always felt like she was being watched, which made her very uncomfortable, a feeling that didn't disappear until they drove out of the wilderness.
She guessed it too; the gaze was coming from the demon king.
Finally, a streak of light descended upon the city lord's mansion. Those guarding outside did not react; they knew that the city lord had returned.
Two people emerged from the flowing light: Gu Ming and Yue Qingning.
Gu Ming's expression was solemn. With a wave of his hand, an invisible barrier appeared, blocking all information from being leaked or spied on.
"puff..."
Gu Ming could no longer hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood, staining the area red.
"Grandpa Gu!"
Yue Qingning exclaimed in surprise upon seeing this scene, and she also noticed that Grandpa Gu's hair had turned even whiter.
An air of old age and decline appeared.
She hurriedly tried to transfer her life essence into Grandpa Gu's body, but Gu Ming stopped Yue Qingning from doing so.
"Don't waste your life force."
"I know my physical condition better than anyone else. Your little bit of life force is just a drop in the ocean for me."
Yue Qingning felt a pang of pain in her heart. What was wrong with Grandpa Gu?
"Grandpa Gu, how did you suddenly get so badly injured?"
"Didn't you win the battle against that demon king before?"
"It's nothing, it's just that the previous battle aggravated some old injuries, causing them to flare up again."
"Don't worry, Grandpa will be fine after a while."
"I am the city lord of Jianghai City. Do you think I would die from such a minor injury?"
"Don't let this get out, or Jianghai City will be in chaos again."
Gu Ming coughed up the blood, and his qi and blood improved slightly, but his breath was still somewhat weak. Yue Qingning knew that every move Grandpa Gu made affected the safety of Jianghai City, and this matter must not be spread.
"Grandpa Gu, should I call the elders over?"
"No need, your grandpa Gu isn't that easily defeated."
"You should go back first and let Grandpa rest."
Gu Ming said indulgently.
Although Yue Qingning was very worried, she still obediently left, after all, Grandpa Gu needed time to recuperate.
Seeing Yue Qingning leave, Gu Ming could no longer hold back and spat out another mouthful of blood. At the same time, a strange sound came from his body, and his internal injuries suddenly flared up.
My body began to crack, and an unbearable pain surged through me.
But the old man had a resolute look in his eyes and did not make a sound.
After an unknown amount of time, the old man, now covered in blood, slowly rose to his feet. His breath was weak, but his eyes were incredibly bright.
"Even for Jiang Haicheng's sake, I must live on, even if it means enduring this unbearable pain."
Gu Ming knew that his time was running out. This move was intended to conceal the real reason for his deep dive into the wilderness, and at the same time, to warn the Black Bear King.
Unexpectedly, the demon king's strength had increased, so he did not hesitate to use forbidden techniques and burn part of his lifespan to gain temporary power.
His lifespan, which was already nearing its end, was further shortened by this action.
However, the goal has been achieved. Black Bear King is inherently suspicious, and after this incident, Jiang Haicheng will have some more time.
"Grow up quickly, my time is running out..."
