"It's our family elders who are here."

The warehouse manager pulled Gu Sheng hard, and the cabin was immediately closed.

With a burst of dust flying, Gu Sheng yawned three times in a row.

"Ji Family Elder?"

Gu Sheng was suddenly startled.

Ji Ziyue nodded, "Yes, maybe they want to take me back."

"How did he know you were here?"

Gu Sheng asked casually.

"How did I know? Now it seems that I may not be able to stay here for too long."

Ji Ziyue said, looking outside through the gap in the cabin.

Gu Sheng stood there, looking at her anxious look, and suddenly felt a sense of melancholy in his heart.

His brows were furrowed, and his eyes were wandering back and forth between the gap between Ji Ziyue and the cabin, as if he was thinking about something.

At that moment, the gurgling sound of the underground river echoed in his mind, and the cold breath of the cold pool seemed to hit his face again.

Tai Xuan Sect's various experiences reappeared as if they were yesterday, making him feel complicated and unspeakable.

All of this seemed to invisibly increase the emotions between the two of them.

"Maybe we have another way out."

Gu Sheng stood behind Ji Ziyue with a solemn look on his face.

Ji Ziyue turned his head, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"A way out? What are you talking about with me here? That's our elder Ji Family!"

Ji Ziyue is a little speechless.

It seems that he thinks Gu Sheng is looking down on them just like Ji Family.

Gu Sheng shook his head slightly, "I'm not saying hiding, I mean... we can leave here together and go to a place where they can't find us."

"Leave?"

Ji Ziyue's voice was trembling.

She was clearly shocked by the offer.

"That's impossible. You don't understand the power of my family. They are spread all over the place and are nowhere to be found."

Gu Sheng took a step forward and held her hand.

"I know it's hard, but I don't want to see you go back like this."

Ji Ziyue's eyes flashed with confusion.

"Gu Sheng, are you really willing to do this for me?"

Gu Sheng nodded, "Of course, we have gone through so much, and I can't let you face it all alone."

Ji Ziyue took a deep breath, as if at this moment, he realized the profound meaning of the word "love".

"Chichichi!"

At this moment, powerful divine energy fluctuated from outside the cabin.

Ji Ziyue didn't care to say so much to Gu Sheng, and once again lay down in the gap of the wooden house and looked outside.

Then, Gu Sheng also stepped forward to see what would happen.

"Uh-huh!"

In an instant, the sky turned blue.

In the sky, an old man wearing a plain robe slowly appeared.

His eyes are deep, as if he can see everything in the world.

The old man's appearance made the entire sky seem to rotate around him.

Under his control, the clouds in the sky turned into countless cloud dragons, flying towards a certain target below.

Gu Sheng and Ji Ziyue's eyes were firmly fixed on the old man in the sky.

They knew that this Ji Family was so powerful that it was awe-inspiring.

"Uh-huh!"

In an instant, countless cloud dragons were like sharp swords, pointing directly at Li Ruoyu below.

Li Ruoyu is indeed very powerful, but in front of elder Ji Family, he seems a little powerless.

"No! He's going to attack senior."

Gu Sheng felt nervous when he saw this.

As the peak leader of Clumsy Peak, being attacked like this is simply an insult to the Tai Xuan Sect, and it makes Gu Sheng feel a little guilty.

You know, all of this was caused by Gu Sheng and Ji Ziyue.

Now it is unjustifiable for Li Ruoyu to bear the responsibility alone.

"No, I have to go out and help!"

Gu Sheng said anxiously, and was about to rush out of the wooden house.

"Wait!"

Ji Ziyue grabbed him and said with firm eyes, "Gu Sheng, you can't go out!"

Gu Sheng turned his head and looked at Ji Ziyue eagerly.

"Why? Li Ruoyu is our senior, Clumsy Peak can't live without him, and we can't just ignore him!"

Ji Ziyue shook his head.

"You don't understand Elder Ji Family. Although he is strict, he will never kill innocent people indiscriminately. His target is me and he will not kill Li Ruoyu."

"But..."

A trace of hesitation flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes, but he was still uneasy.

"Believe me," Ji Ziyue interrupted him, "If we go out now, it will only make the situation worse. Elder Ji Family's strength is not something we can easily fight against."

Gu Sheng was silent.

Because he knows that Ji Ziyue is right.

Even if he goes out now, he will only get killed and cause trouble to Li Ruoyu.

"Uh-huh!"

Suddenly, the cloud dragon in the sky suddenly changed its direction.

They did not attack Li Ruoyu directly, but formed a huge cloud ring around him, trapping him in it.

Ji Family Elder's voice came from the sky, "Fellow Daoist, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing?"

"Thank you for your condolences, senior. Everything is fine."

Li Ruoyu smiled slightly and Jishou responded.

"Huh? They... they know each other?"

Gu Sheng and Ji Ziyue in the wooden house were stunned when they heard them talking.

Unexpectedly, the two of them had crossed paths before. In other words, Li Ruoyu almost reached the elder ability of the Ji Family.

However, if Li Ruoyu calls the opponent senior, then the ability of elder Ji Family should be slightly higher than him.

"Haha..."

Ji Family Elder smiled slightly and waved his hand.

In an instant, the huge cloud ring disappeared, and the whole scene became much peaceful.

"You are still the same as before, as calm as a mountain."

Ji Family Elder nodded with satisfaction.

"Where is it? I don't know why senior came to the Tai Xuan Sect today."

Li Ruoyu replied with the same smile.

"I'm not here today to be your enemy, I'm just looking for a daughter from the family."

Ji Family Elder said, flicking his sleeves.

"Crash!"

In an instant, the cabin where Ji Ziyue and Gu Sheng were hiding fell apart.

The sound of the explosion frightened the two of them so much that they stood still, and the air seemed to freeze.

It took a long time for Ji Ziyue to react.

"Chief... elder..."

Ji Ziyue had a discordant smile on his face.

"You still recognize me as an elder!"

Ji Family Elder said coldly with a look on his face.

"I recognize it, I recognize it."

Ji Ziyue chuckled, clasping his hands into fists, and the elder Chao Ji Family bowed.

"Elder."

Gu Sheng also shouted and performed a fist-cup salute.

"Huh?"

As soon as Gu Sheng finished speaking, Elder Ji Family's face suddenly sank, and he seemed to be full of hostility towards Gu Sheng.

Elder Ji Family's eyes were as sharp as ice blades, staring at Gu Sheng coldly, as if he wanted to see through him.

"Elder, he is my... friend."

Ji Ziyue's voice was trembling.

Because she could see from the elder's seriousness that Gu Sheng was in a very dangerous situation at this time.

Ji Family Elder did not answer, just stretched out his finger.

"Uh-huh!"

An invisible force instantly restrained Gu Sheng, leaving his feet off the ground and hanging in mid-air.

"Ah... ah..."

Gu Sheng was frightened by this sudden restraint and couldn't help but cry out.

"Senior, what do you mean?"

Li Ruoyu saw this and immediately stepped forward to question.

Elder Ji Family snorted coldly, "This is Ji Family's family matter. As an outsider, what qualifications do you have to interfere?"

Ji Ziyue felt anxious when he saw Gu Sheng suffering.

Helpless, she fell to her knees with a thud, with tears in her eyes, "Elder, please let Gu Sheng go, he doesn't know anything."

Gu Sheng struggled in the air, but he felt as if his strength was tightly bound by invisible chains. No matter how hard he tried, he could not break free.

"Let me go! Let me go!"

Gu Sheng shouted.

At this moment, a ray of rainbow light came through the sky, so fast that people were caught off guard.

Rainbow light flashed between elders Gu Sheng and Ji Family.

Gu Sheng Suddenly felt that the power that restrained him disappeared, and his body fell back to the ground.

Everyone looked up and saw a white-haired old man standing in mid-air.

He has white hair and a childish face, is affable, and exudes an aura of peace and stability.

"Grand Elder!"

Li Ruoyu exclaimed in surprise.

He did not expect that Grand Elder of the Tai Xuan Sect would appear at this time.

Grand Elder nodded slightly, glanced at Elder Ji Family, and said in a calm and powerful tone, "It turns out to be brother Ji Hong, long time no see."

Ji Family Elder's expression changed.

Obviously, he did not expect Grand Elder to suddenly appear.

"Grand Elder, this is my Ji Family's family matter, do you want to intervene too?"

Ji Hong's tone was filled with a hint of reluctance.

Grand Elder shook his head, "I don't want to interfere in the Ji Family's family affairs, but Gu Sheng is my disciple Tai Xuan Sect. I can't watch him get hurt."

Elder Ji Family was silent for a moment, and finally sighed, "Since Grand Elder has come forward, I will naturally not embarrass him. There is just one thing that needs to be explained to him."

At this time Gu Sheng stood up and glanced at Grand Elder gratefully.

If Grand Elder hadn't appeared in time, he might have suffered an accident.

Ji Ziyue also breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the appearance of Grand Elder at least temporarily alleviated the immediate crisis.

"What's the matter?"

Grand Elder asked.

"This boy has the aura of my Ji Family "Void Scripture". He must have sneaked into the Ji Family and stolen it. Otherwise, he would not be able to practice this sutra."

Ji Hong said with a gloomy face.

Hearing this, Grand Elder frowned slightly.

He knows that "Void Scripture" is one of the most important cultivation scriptures of the Ji Family.

Ordinary people have never heard of it, let alone seen it.

But now Gu Sheng can show the aura of "Void Scripture". There must be a certain reason for this.

At the same time, Grand Elder and Li Ruoyu seemed to understand why Ji Hong attacked Gu Sheng.

"Gu Sheng, when did you practice "Void Scripture"?"

Grand Elder asked.

"It's me!"

Before Gu Sheng could answer, Ji Ziyue stood up directly.

"Ziyue, don't talk nonsense!"

Gu Sheng directly pulled Ji Ziyue, and then said to Ji Hong, "Senior, it's me. I secretly practiced "Void Scripture". If there is any punishment, come to me alone. I am responsible for what I do!"

"What does it have to do with you? I gave it to him!"

Ji Ziyue also pulled Gu Sheng aside.

"You... this..."

Grand Elder and Li Ruoyu were a little confused and didn't know what was going on.

"Ziyue! Do you know the Ji Family secrets?"

Ji Hong scolded coldly.

"Ziyue knows."

Ji Ziyue lowered his head slightly.

"Hmph!"

Ji Hong snorted coldly.

"Senior, if you have any problem, come to me alone. Don't hurt Ziyue, he is innocent!"

Gu Sheng once again blocked Ji Ziyue.

Ji Hong's face became even more gloomy.

His eyes glanced back and forth between Gu Sheng and Ji Ziyue, as if he was weighing something.

Because he saw that Ji Ziyue had a different kind of affection for Gu Sheng.

Although he is an elder, he can still see through the minds of the younger ones.

"Gu Sheng, do you know that once you admit it, you will be challenging Ji Family's family law?"

There was a hint of menace in Ji Hong's voice.

"Huh..."

Gu Sheng took a deep breath and seemed to have made up his mind.

"Senior, I have no intention of challenging Ji Family, I just want to protect Ziyue."

Gu Sheng There was no trace of fear in his eyes.

That way, it seemed that he was ready to die generously.

Ji Ziyue pulled Gu Sheng's clothes, knowing that Gu Sheng was using his own safety to protect her.

Especially this courage made her feel extremely warm.

Grand Elder and Li Ruoyu were quietly observing all this.

They knew that this dispute was beyond the scope of their ability to intervene easily.

"Gu Sheng, your courage is commendable, but "Void Scripture" is Ji Family's secret method. You practice it without permission. This is disrespectful to the Ji Family."

Ji Hong said coldly.

"I understand. I am willing to accept any punishment. I just ask senior not to embarrass Ziyue."

Gu Sheng nodded, then glanced at Ji Ziyue and said.

"Gu Sheng, are you crazy? Don't want to live anymore?"

Ji Ziyue was so anxious that he almost reached out and twisted Gu Sheng's hand.

"Think, why don't you want to live?"

Gu Sheng smiled slightly, looking calm.

Ji Hong was silent for a moment, seeming to be thinking about something.

"Well, since you are so insistent, I will give you a chance."

Ji Hong finally said, "If you can survive three moves under my hands, I will let you two go."

Gu Sheng's eyes flashed with surprise, and he knew this was an opportunity.

Even though Ji Hong's strength is unfathomable, at least he has a glimmer of hope.

"Thank you, senior!"

Gu Sheng said gratefully.

"No!"

But Ji Ziyue directly blocked it.

"Elder, I gave "Void Scripture" to Gu Sheng. If you want to punish me, you have to punish me. Why do you want to embarrass Gu Sheng?"

Ji Ziyue mustered up the courage, looked squarely at the elder and asked.

"No matter how he got it, as long as he practices it, he should be punished."

Ji Hong's tone was cold.

After all, as an elder, I have the obligation to defend the dignity of the Ji Family.

"No!"

Ji Ziyue suddenly got into the temper of a young lady.

Ji Hong saw this and waved his hand.

Ji Ziyue's figure suddenly froze, and he found that he could not move. It was obvious that Ji Hong had used some means to immobilize him.

"Elder, what are you..."

A trace of panic flashed in Ji Ziyue's eyes.

Ji Hong did not answer, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.

"In that case, let me see what you are capable of."

Before he finished speaking, Ji Hong waved his palm lightly.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Rays of light intertwined in the sky, forming a complex pattern.

This pattern seems to have no rules, but when it forms a certain strength, it begins to be arranged according to a certain pattern.
