Chapter 2064: Ambushed
Just after taking a few steps forward, Gu Zhiqi suddenly stopped in her tracks, her eyebrows lightly furrowed.
Su Yunling also stopped in his tracks, "Be careful, it’s an ambush."
Upon hearing this, the others became slightly alert.
Everyone stopped, instinctively standing back to back, forming a circle, all full of vigilance.
"Hahaha..."
Suddenly, a burst of laughter resounded, seemingly coming from all directions, yet also seeming to be right beside them.
"They’re above."
Following Gu Zhiqi’s voice, everyone instinctively looked up.
Only to see a group of green birds suddenly descending from the sky, aggressively swooping towards them.
Gu Zhiqi and Su Yunling simultaneously performed hand gestures, casting a defense shield in the air.
"Brother Ling, protect them well, I’ll go meet him." After setting up the defense shield, Gu Zhiqi left this sentence, then flew skyward.
Seeing this, Su Yunling was a bit worried, but with a few people of low cultivation level standing beside him, he had to give up the idea of helping Gu Zhiqi.
After flying to mid-air, Gu Zhiqi saw the person controlling the birds.
The person was wearing a black cloak, with patterns carved on it. The pattern’s color was the same as those on Quan San and Quan Yi’s cloaks, it’s presumably Quan Er, who manages Angel’s ancient martial artists.
The two floated in the air, facing each other from a long distance.
Quan Er sneered at Gu Zhiqi, "You are Gu Zhiqi?"
Gu Zhiqi: "Quan Er?"
Quan Er’s expression under the cloak changed, and then his eyes suddenly turned fierce, "It seems you’ve heard quite a lot from those useless people."
Gu Zhiqi didn’t respond to him, with a lazy smile at the corner of her mouth, "Speaking of being useless, sir shouldn’t be shy to claim that title. Stealing others’ cultivation levels, is it because you’re too worthless yourself?"
"Courting death." Quan Er was hit right in the heart, his aura suddenly shifted, then mobilized vital energy to strike Gu Zhiqi.
Gu Zhiqi flipped her wrist, raising a defense shield to fend it off.
Originally, Gu Zhiqi was curious about Quan Er’s cultivation level, but now, as soon as Quan Er made his move, Gu Zhiqi understood his cultivation.
An eighth-order peak ancient martial artist, higher than her own cultivation.
A bit tricky.
Seeing through Quan Er’s cultivation level, Quan Er, of course, also sensed Gu Zhiqi’s cultivation, "No wonder those useless things fell into your hands, so you’re an eighth-order ancient martial artist. Did you steal your cultivation too?"
Gu Zhiqi: "Your father lost his cultivation to me, that’s why you don’t have a father, surprising isn’t it?"
As soon as Gu Zhiqi said this, Quan Er’s face immediately changed, even his aura shifted, taking advantage of his moment of rage, Gu Zhiqi charged at him with her sword.
Seeing this, Quan Er quickly raised a defense shield.
A little late, the defense shield was yet to fully form when it was struck by Gu Zhiqi’s sword.
The sword light collided with the defense shield, emanating extremely dazzling light, instantly exploding mid-air, then the intense light swiftly moved in the sky.
Until Quan Er steadied his posture, stopping his retreat.
Originally, seeing Gu Zhiqi’s cultivation lower than his own, Quan Er was somewhat negligent, confidently thinking he could easily eliminate Gu Zhiqi.
But now, it seems he underestimated her.
No wonder she could damage so much of Angel’s strength, it turns out her combat power is so formidable.
Quan Er steadied his stance, the defense shield in front of him brighter than before, seeing this, Gu Zhiqi retreated with her sword.
After gathering vital energy again, she wrapped it around her sword and clashed with Quan Er once more.
