Chapter 485
When discussing emotional gossip, the young disciples of Jiange chatted more and more enthusiastically.

"If I remember correctly, didn't Gu Xu already have a fiancée before? She seems to be a disciple of our Jiange. Why did you get mixed up with Zhao Yan?"

"I retired early. If it were you, would you let your daughter marry a wanted criminal?"

"That's true."

"I heard that the people in the northern border have secretly called Gu Xu the 'future prince', and also said that he is the 'human incarnation of the god of fire', and that he was created by heaven and earth with Zhao Yan, who is the reincarnation of a saint." couple."

"Northern people really know how to make up stories in order to build momentum."

"Yeah, I've been hearing prophecies like 'the Northeast has the spirit of heaven' recently. They really want to rebel and go crazy."

"..."

The more Shi Xiaohan listened, the more complicated his mood became.

On the one hand, they are increasingly worried about Gu Xu's safety.

On the other hand, they are entangled in whether the fact that "Gu Xu is going to be the king's husband of the northern border" is true or not.

She never doubted Gu Xu's feelings for her.

But now their engagement has been burned.

Shi Xiaohan, who only had a third-level cultivation, could not give him useful help during his escape.

Only Zhao Yan, who proclaimed herself king in Jicheng, dared and had the ability to openly protect Gu Xu, the most wanted criminal of the Qi Dynasty.

Under such circumstances, will Gu Xu let go of this difficult relationship in order to survive, choose to stay in the north, and never come back?

And that Zhao Yan is so beautiful--that bright and flamboyant, extremely aggressive beauty, even a girl like her can't move her eyes away.

Can Gu Xu hold on?

The more Shi Xiaohan thought about it, the more uncertain he felt.

…………

When Xiaohan was in a state of confusion, several black space cracks cut through the blue sky above the Jiange silently.

Immediately afterwards, two masked figures appeared out of thin air in the middle of the crack.

Their appearance made the Jiange disciples present nervous involuntarily——

Because these two uninvited guests did not touch the alarm of the guardian array, they appeared directly within the range of the array.

In everyone's perception, this is something that only saints who are proficient in the laws of space can do.

"Quickly report to the pavilion master that there are foreign enemies breaking in!" Someone shouted loudly.

However, Xu Man, the owner of Jiange Pavilion, reacted faster than he imagined.

Accompanied by a clear sword cry, a silver-white sword light cut through the mist in the mountains, and rushed straight towards the two people in the clouds.

Before the people arrive, the sword arrives first.

The two people in the sky were undoubtedly Gu Xu and Luo Chuan who had just arrived from Lingshan Temple.

Facing this fierce flying sword, they took it easy and adopted exactly the same way of coping.

Their figures turned translucent, flickering in the sky, as if they might hide in nothingness at any time.

If a knowledgeable person sees this scene, they will immediately realize that they hid their real bodies in the space crack to avoid Xu Man's flying sword attack.

I saw the silver-white flying sword pass straight through their bodies with a "swish", as if passing through intangible smoke.

The two remained unharmed.

At this time, Xu Man, the owner of the Jiange Pavilion, finally came to them with the light of his sword.

Same as last time we met.

Xu Man was still dressed in black, with long boots, and a bamboo hat with a circle of light gauze on her head.

Without saying a word, she once again manipulated the flying sword and slashed at Gu Xu.

Gu Xu used "Qian Kun" again to dodge.

At the same time, he sent a sound transmission to Luo Chuan's spiritual consciousness beside him: "Wenchang, don't do anything yet. She is testing me."

"Dijun, she is a real saint and strong, and she practices the most dangerous flying sword technique, you must be careful—" Luo Chuan frowned, still feeling a little worried.

"——Wenchang, you are the one who has followed me the longest," Gu Xu smiled and interrupted him, "Don't you remember how I dealt with these sword cultivators before?"

As he spoke, he gently raised his hand.

As he pointed at the flying sword, the flying sword immediately slammed on the brakes in front of him, and then it seemed to become extremely heavy, and it fell straight to the ground without Xu Man's control.

This is the first time Gu Xu has used the authority of "control" after devouring the remnant soul of Emperor Ziwei.

Emperor Ziwei once described before his death that this authority "can manipulate the stars at the top, and control the hearts of the people at the bottom".

Among them, "manipulating the stars" is reflected in the control of gravity.

It is undoubtedly extremely convenient to deal with long-range attacks like flying swords and arrows.

Under Xu Man's light veil, her pale lips pursed into a straight line.

She waved her hand to recall her natal sword, held it tightly in the palm of her hand, and then used her body skills to appear behind Gu Xu in an instant.

The master of the Jiange Pavilion's flying sword technique was once famous all over the world for "slaying fierce gods for thousands of miles".

Although her melee sword skills are less famous, her degree of danger is not inferior to that of Feijian.

…………

At this moment, Shi Xiaohan was standing on the hillside, watching the battle with many Jiange disciples.

As a sage who entered the Tao with the sword, and possessed a refined demeanor, Xu Man was undoubtedly the object of worship in the hearts of almost all Jiange disciples.

When she appeared on the stage with the dazzling sword light, there were bursts of excited shouts immediately on the ground, shouting words such as "Pavilion Master kill them", "Pavilion Master is invincible".

But Shi Xiaohan kept silent and did not participate in it.

Because she somehow felt that the figure in green clothes and mask standing opposite Pavilion Master Xu looked very familiar.

His figure and temperament are very similar to Gu Xu in her memory.

When Xu Man attacked him, her heart couldn't help but raised her throat, for fear that he would be hurt.

"But the problem is, when Gu Xu and I parted ways in Luojing City, we only had the fourth realm," she thought, "but the man in Tsing Yi in front of me can fight head to toe with Pavilion Master Xu.

"No matter how talented Gu Xu is, it's impossible for him to break through multiple realms in such a short period of time!"

…………

Xu Man's sword came too fast.

Like a flash of cold white lightning, there was no time to defend or dodge, and it stabbed straight at the back of Gu Xu's head.

But Gu Xu still looked indifferent, not flustered.

He didn't intend to hide, nor did he intend to block.

As if he had given up resistance, he stood still and let Xu Man's sword stab him in the head.

So much so that even Xu Man was a little surprised by this.

In the next second, the sword edge brushed against Gu Xu's ear, cutting off a few strands of his hair without leaving any scars.

Gu Xu seized the opportunity, cast "Qian Kun", and flashed to a position tens of meters away in an instant.

Xu Man stood in the air and didn't chase after him immediately.

She slowly withdrew her long sword, looked at the place where Gu Xu disappeared, and frowned slightly.

"It turned out to be a mistake."
