"Go, go, go!"
"Retreat quickly!"
Low shouts echoed continuously as the attackers entangled with the Martial Artists of Guâs Manor suddenly began to retreat one after another.
But clearly.
Gu Jingang would not let them leave so easily.
"Come and go as you please? Do you think Guâs Manor is some kind of playground?!"
Gu Jingangâs furious roar rang out in the night sky.
"Sons of Guâs Manor, kill them!"
"Kill!"
"Slaughter these intruders!"
"Hahaha, butcher these brats who dared to stir up trouble in Guâs Manor!"
The Martial Artists of Guâs Manor were brimming with morale. Their strongest warrior displayed the peak strength of the Blood Refining Realm, while a hidden sharpshooter with extraordinary archery skills supported them from behind. With no fear in their hearts, seeing the enemy retreating in panic only fueled their fighting spirit further!
Screams broke out continuously.
Trying to retreat without paying a price? Impossible.
Gu Jingang locked his gaze firmly onto the few Blood Refining Realm experts before him, especially the injured third brother, who became his primary target.
Lu Ming and the others tried their best to assist, but the oppressive force brought by Gu Jingang was overwhelming.
Despair seeped into Lu Mingâs heart.
At this rate, if they were delayed here, escaping would be impossible!
The third brother, decisive as ever, showed a streak of sorrow and determination in his eyes, then spoke firmly:
"Brother Ming, you all retreat first!"
"Take care of Xiao Xue for me! Avenge me in the future!"
Saying so.
The third brother didnât retreat but charged forward instead, engaging Gu Jingang head-on.
"Third Brother!"
Lu Ming and the othersâ expressions changed drastically, hearts wrenching with pain.
"Retreat!"
Gritting his teeth, Lu Ming led the remaining companions in a hurried escape. Faintly, a scream echoed behind them. Turning back for a glance, they saw Gu Jingangâs punch ruthlessly obliterate the third brotherâs head, resembling a smashed watermelonâhis end tragic.
Gu Jingang had no intention of showing mercy to intruders.
"Third Brother!!!"
The members of the Lu family cried out in anguish, suppressing their urge to turn back and fight, fleeing swiftly instead.
The Martial Artists from Guâs Manor were still in pursuit.
However, the remaining attackers from the Lu family were mostly Martial Artists at least of Iron Skin level, their speed remarkable, quickly disappearing into the distance.
"Stop chasing them!"
Gu Changming swiftly shouted, halting the warriors of Guâs Manor who were about to continue their pursuit.
"Do not chase fleeing bandits. Most of us wear heavy armor unsuitable for pursuit. Besides, be cautious of their possible diversionary tactics."
The fervent blood boiling in Gu Jingangâs veins gradually cooled, realizing he had nearly been carried away by their victory.
"Changming is right."
"Hold the pursuit, clean up the battlefield, and tally the casualties!"
The warriors of Guâs Manor responded in unison.
One by one, their expressions were filled with exhilaration. This battle had been unbelievably satisfying!
At least half of the enemy forces were lost here, while their side suffered no fatalities except for a few severely injured warriors!
Everyone knew who the biggest contributor was.
Apart from their Blood Refining Realm experts in the manor, the person who made the greatest impact was undoubtedly the sharpshooter supporting them from the shadowsâGu Sheng!
One by one, respectful and grateful gazes turned toward Gu Sheng, who was slowly emerging from the darkness. During the battle, Gu Shengâs arrows had saved many, leaving everyone with a vivid impression of his unmatched archery skills.
This man was undoubtedly an archery prodigy!
Gu Xiaojiang couldnât help but exclaim:
"Asheng, your archery skills have truly entered a transcendent realm!"
Everyone nodded repeatedly.
Gu Changming and Gu Dajiang exchanged glances, both seeing the regret in each otherâs eyes. If they had been more resolute back then and convinced the clan elders to allocate resources, if Gu Sheng had been able to reach the Jade Skin Realm or even the Blood Refining Realm, who knows how powerful he would be.
Facing the gazes of admiration and astonishment, Gu Sheng merely smiled faintly.
"I was lucky. If not for the three instructors from Guâs side holding off their experts, I wouldnât have had this opportunity."
Gu Jingangâs expression turned complex.
Only he knew that now, even he wouldnât be able to defeat Gu Sheng with just one hand.
