In Jiang Cheng's view, Gu Jian, a warrior at the early stage of the Condensing Dan Realm, would never be able to kill Li Ping, who was at the second level of the Yuan Dan Realm.
As far as he knew, Gu Jian had a close relationship with the little princess Xiao Hongchen and Master Piaoxuelou Long. It was likely that they helped Gu Jian to death.
As for Gu Jian himself, perhaps his talent in alchemy is really outstanding, but his martial arts strength is too high!
As a fourth-level martial sect in the Yuan Dan realm, he was about to enter the Longteng Mountains, so there was no need to be afraid of Gu Jian.
Facing Jiang Cheng's spiritual pressure, Gu Jian just lost his temper in his dantian and did not even shake his body.
"Um?"
Jiang Cheng was surprised and thought about how he couldn't even suppress a kid in the early stage of the Condensation Realm. He felt humiliated and increased the intensity of his spiritual pressure.
But Gu Jian still stood in front of him like a sharp sword hidden in a scabbard.
Seeing Jiang Cheng acting so recklessly, no matter how good-tempered Murong Shuran was, he couldn't help it at this moment.
She pushed Jiang Cheng away and said angrily: "Jiang Cheng, don't go too far!"
"Shu Ran, I just want to tell you with facts, he is just a weakling. What's more, you are now the dean's direct disciple, how can you be with a guy of humble origin like him?"
Jiang Cheng frowned.
"Go away, I don't want to talk to you!" Murong Shuran pointed elsewhere and said.
"Boy, if you can, don't hide behind women and challenge me one on one!"
Jiang Cheng did not dare to get angry with Murong Shuran, who was the dean's disciple, so he had no choice but to target Gu Jian again.
Gu Jian looked directly into Jiang Cheng's eyes and said calmly: "I will definitely see blood when I draw my sword."
"so what?"
Jiang Cheng dismissed it.
"It means that if you want to fight with me, be prepared to be killed first."
Gu Jian spoke calmly.
"you!"
Jiang Cheng felt that he had been provoked and was about to take action against Gu Jian when a deacon who distributed merit tokens arrived. Jiang Cheng was worried about being reprimanded by the deacon, so he could only temporarily restrain his temper.
After a while, all three of them received their respective merit tokens.
"Gu Jian, we don't need to pay attention to him."
Murong Shuran glared at Jiang Cheng, pulled up Gu Jian's sleeves, and followed the group entering the mountain.
"This is unreasonable! Gu Jian, Murong Shuran, you all just wait for me!"
Jiang Cheng said ferociously in his heart.
His father was the third-rank Zhaoyong General of the Kingdom, so he was pampered and had everything he wanted since he was a child.
On the first day Murong Shuran arrived at the Jiang Mansion, he fell deeply in love with this gentle and elegant girl.
In his eyes, Murong Shuran was different from the coquettish bitches he had come into contact with, which aroused his desire to conquer.
"Shu Ran, I will get you sooner or later!"
…
After a while of kung fu exercises, all the students from Tianxing Academy entered the Longteng Mountains, dispersed and started training in different directions.
A group of powerful sword cultivators gathered at the top of a peak to discuss something.
The first person, wearing a purple star robe with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, was clearly Meng Fentian.
"This is the plan, which one of you is willing to execute it?" Meng Fentian's sharp eyes scanned his many followers.
"Senior Brother Meng, I have been practicing in the Longteng Mountains for many years. Not only do I have the best understanding of the habits of various ferocious beasts, but I also practice techniques with hidden auras. Let me go."
A young man wearing black clothes with a very vague aura stood up first.
"Duan Feng, it's up to you to carry out the task. If Gu Jian dies in your hands and you can bring back his Najie, I will definitely reward him heavily."
Meng Fentian stood with his hands behind his back.
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold glint appeared in his eyes, which turned into a threat.
"Among Gu Jian's gifts are the relics of my two junior brothers. I don't want anything to be lost. Otherwise..."
"Senior Brother Meng, don't worry, I will definitely hand over his Najie to you in its entirety."
Duan Feng felt wary and quickly agreed.
Even if there are any treasures in Gu Jian's collection that even Senior Brother Meng and even Lord Mo Chen are spying on, they are probably not something he can covet.
"Okay, you go ahead."
Meng Fentian smiled faintly.
"yes!"
After Duan Feng took the order, he found Gu Jian among the crowds pouring into the Longteng Mountains and rushed over like the wind.
The Longteng Mountain Range is vast and consists of endless and continuous peaks. It is densely jungled, deep and dark.
Not only that, because the Longteng Mountain Range is rich in spiritual energy, there are a large number of ferocious beasts living here, including some extremely ferocious beasts.
Before the hunting trial was held in Tianxing Academy, there would be a tide of beasts attacking the city every year.
Gu Jian and Murong Shuran continued to climb the Longteng Mountain Range, heading deeper.
Along the way, the two encountered many ferocious beasts, but with their cooperation, they were all easily killed.
"Miss Murong, that guy named Jiang Cheng seems to have been following us. He is about seventy or eighty meters behind us."
After Gu Jian killed a gale wolf, he said to Murong Shuran next to him.
His consciousness was powerful and he could clearly detect everything within a hundred meters, and found that Jiang Cheng had been hiding behind them.
"Following us? That perverted guy must be able to do it."
Murong Shuran looked disgusted.
"abnormal?"
Gu Jian frowned slightly.
"Well, when I first met Jiang Cheng, he was very dirty and always took advantage of me. If I hadn't escaped so quickly, I might have been trapped in the Jiang Mansion by him."
When Murong Shuran told her story, there was a look of deep disgust on her face.
"Later, I inquired with the female senior sisters in the college and found out that Jiang Cheng was a famous thief in the royal capital. With his father being the imperial council general, he had ruined many good girls over the years. That was also the beginning.
I have been avoiding him since that time. But I didn’t expect that I would be pestered by him again today.”
"That guy doesn't seem like a good person. I didn't expect him to do so many evil things."
Gu Jian's face darkened.
"Mr. Gu, Jiang Cheng is a Yuandan realm warrior. It stands to reason that without your spiritual consciousness as powerful as yours, how can he always follow us?" Murong Shuran asked doubtfully.
Upon hearing this, Gu Jian rolled his eyes and walked around for Murong Shuran.
"No wonder..."
When he saw a thumb-sized talisman stuck to the center of Murong Shu's back, Gu Jian suddenly realized.
"What's behind me?"
Murong Shuran said nervously.
"A tracking charm."
Gu Jian replied.
In addition to the Alchemy Dao and the Weapon Dao, there are also Talisman Dao, Formation Dao and many more niche paths in the world.
Tracking talismans are often used for reconnaissance and tracking work in the military. As the son of a general, it is not surprising that Jiang Cheng has such a talisman.
"It's really perverted."
Gu Jian narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Master Gu, quickly tear off the talisman, so that you can get rid of him."
Murong Shuran said quickly.
"No need. How can such a scum be allowed to leave alive? We can use this tracking talisman to lead him to a remote place and kill him directly."
