Chapter 1068: Gu Jin Takes the Stage to Protect Her Disciple

Seeing his sect’s disciple being taken away, Luo Xiangsheng turned his head and glared coldly at Wanqi Jingyi, "You brat want to kill someone from my Luocha Sect; are you tired of living? Do you really wish to leave this Cultivator Tournament horizontally?"

Liang Qing was one of the rare talents in his sect, who established the Foundation in just a few years. Given his speed of cultivation, forming the Golden Core Pill was just around the corner.

Yet Wanqi Jingyi actually wanted to kill him.

How could Luo Xiangsheng not be furious!

As these words left his mouth, a powerful pressure swept through the air, with an invisible oppression that hinted at danger.

Wanqi Jingyi’s whole body tensed up from this sense of pressure, his expression turning gloomy.

He didn’t know Luo Xiangsheng’s level of cultivation, only feeling a vigilance against facing danger.

The overwhelming killing intent released by the opponent nearly took his breath away.

The Sect Leader of the Luocha Sect’s cultivation was definitely above the Golden Core.

Facing mortal danger, the young Wanqi still pondered, wondering whether his master would surpass this old man in strength.

Up until now, he had never truly seen his master in action.

While Wanqi Jingyi was slightly distracted, a shadowy figure flew up onto the martial stage.

Gu Jin had already turned slightly pale when Luo Xiangsheng stepped onto the stage.

Seeing her third disciple being overwhelmed, she immediately flew onto the martial stage.

Standing on the stage, Gu Jin casually spoke, "Presumably, you are the Luocha Sect Leader. Aren’t the rules of the Cultivator Tournament such that once on stage, life and death are no matter? Why have the rules changed when it comes to my Xuanji Sect; could it be specifically targeting my Xuanji Sect?"

Her voice was clear and pleasant, just right for everyone present to hear distinctly.

The crowd below the stage looked up, astonished by the ethereal beauty standing on the stage, untouched by worldly matters, their eyes revealing admiration.

She exuded an alluring charm, a captivating enchantment within innocence, her eyes radiating a magical brilliance.

This was a contradictory aura, remarkably attractive when manifested through her.

Luo Xiangsheng’s murky eyes narrowed slightly, looking Gu Jin up and down.

He discerned that she must have just recently broken through to the Golden Core, a glint of sharpness flashing in his eyes.

"You are the Xuanji Sect Leader?"

His tone full of sarcasm, a sense of condescending superiority, as if greatly disdainful of her.

"Is there a problem?" Gu Jin’s lips curved into a beautiful arc, her face showing a faint smile.

She did not display any dissatisfaction due to the other’s negative attitude.

"Ha!" Luo Xiangsheng sneered, "A little girl dares to bring up rules in front of this old man. Do you know this is the Hidden Market? I am the rule here!"

Gu Jin’s smile faded, "So what you mean is my disciple can be casually slaughtered, but your Luocha Sect disciple can’t be touched?"

Luo Xiangsheng snorted coldly, the meaning evident.

Gu Jin rested one hand behind her back, the other gently rubbing her fingertips, her beautiful eyes gleaming with a cold light.

This is truly bandit behavior.

She had seen quite a few shameless individuals, but never someone who would so boldly and arrogantly make such statements.

The cultivators below the stage were also angered by Luo Xiangsheng’s shameless attitude.

Each displayed fury on their faces, yet dared not voice their anger.

A rugged-looking man couldn’t restrain himself, "This is unfair! I’ve trained hard for years to reach my current cultivation level, inexplicably invited to attend this damn Cultivator Tournament. If we win, we can’t be overcome, and if we lose, it’s a dead end. Why! Why do I have to throw my life away!"

This man’s words were intense, his attitude furious.

"Exactly, why?!"

"I don’t even want to participate in this Cultivator Tournament!"
