Chapter 26 Wife, don't be angry, let me explain...
But who could have predicted that this time, Gu Yu wasn't just trying to scare Yi into crying; he actually threw a flying knife.
A throwing knife made of fine steel, three inches and seven fen long.
This is certainly not Li Xunhuan's Flying Dagger; it's just a replica.
Under normal circumstances, this throwing knife would never hit Yiku.
After all, it wasn't the real Little Li Flying Dagger; it was just a common hidden weapon technique.
However, since Gu Yu had tricked Yi Ku once before, he assumed Gu Yu would repeat the same trick and ignored him completely, wishing he could smash Gu Yu to pieces with one blow.
The two were only a few feet apart.
At such a short distance, by the time Yi Ku realized something was wrong, it was too late to dodge.
The sharp throwing knife struck his chest instantly, with only a small section of the hilt protruding.
"ah--"
Yi cried out in pain. In the intense pain, her body instantly lost control, and she fell from the air, almost crashing to the ground.
"Pfft~"
Upon landing, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
This blow has already damaged his heart meridian.
"good!"
Sun Xiaohong was so excited that her face turned red, and she clapped her hands and cheered loudly.
The muscles on the bearded man's face twitched incessantly, burning as if he had been slapped several times.
After all, he had been making sarcastic remarks, saying that Gu Yu was courting death.
In an attempt to save face, he couldn't help but sneer, "These young people nowadays have no martial ethics; it's downright despicable..."
Just as I finished speaking, I suddenly felt my legs go weak and I knelt down on the ground with a "thud".
After struggling a few times, he felt as if all his strength had been drained and he couldn't stand up.
Sun Xiaohong said with a gloating look, "Oh, so you're so excited that you're kneeling down to pay your respects?"
Only she knew the truth: it was her grandfather who couldn't help but intervene.
Looking at the arena again, Gu Yu no longer simply dodged as before, but began to take the initiative to make moves.
The old man of the heavens murmured, "One must press on with one's might, for the second will be weaker, and the third will be exhausted. Yi Ku's momentum has weakened, and he has also been injured. This is going to be a big problem."
Sure enough, the situation on the field took a dramatic turn.
Although Yi Ku could barely hold on, as the old man Tianji said, his momentum had weakened and he was seriously injured, so he was forced into a state of chaos by Gu Yu.
"This is... the Wuji Sword Technique? Is he really a Wudang disciple?"
"When did the Wudang Sect produce such a young master?"
Just as everyone was speculating, Gu Yu suddenly changed his move, grabbing at the air with his left hand, and a faint dragon's roar echoed in the arena.
As Yi Ku was dodging the sword strikes, a powerful gust of air swept over him, like a vortex, making his body feel light and causing him to involuntarily take a step forward.
This step became the life-or-death line in his life!
"Dragon-Capturing Skill?"
Master Xinmei was taken aback.
He naturally recognized the Dragon-Capturing Skill as a Shaolin secret technique. However, few Shaolin disciples practiced it.
Because this skill is easy to learn but difficult to master.
He had practiced it himself, but he was only slightly better than the beginner level, and probably not even as good as Gu Yu's grab just now.
At the same time, Gu Yu had already thrust out his sword.
His sword strike and the Dragon-Capturing Skill were executed almost simultaneously, forming a series of consecutive moves.
With Shaolin martial arts in his left hand and Wudang swordsmanship in his right, there are probably only a handful of people in the world who can do it.
Just as everyone can draw circles and squares, very few people can draw both at the same time.
Yi cried as she watched the sword thrust towards her, but she was powerless to stop it and had no way to avoid it.
To others, it looked as if he had taken a step forward and faced the sword tip head-on.
"Pfft~"
A faint sound.
The sword tip pierced Yi Ku's chest.
The world slowly turned gray in his eyes.
This sword pierced his heart; even a god couldn't save him now.
Tian Qi couldn't help but shudder and muttered, "This kid is terrifying, even more terrifying than the Azure Demon Hand."
Gongsun Moyun was in no better shape; he even began to consider whether to find an opportunity to slip away in order to avoid another conflict with Gu Yu.
"call!"
Gu Yu slowly drew his sword.
As soon as he drew his sword, a spurt of blood gushed from Yi Ku's chest.
Fortunately, Gu Yu was prepared and dodged in time, thus avoiding getting splattered with blood.
This time, for the first time, he didn't mock Yi Ku. Instead, he said sincerely, "Yi Ku, be a normal person in your next life. Don't make yourself into something neither human nor ghost again."
"Thanks……"
It's unclear whether Yi Ku finally had a sudden realization and genuinely wanted to say thank you, or if she simply didn't have time to finish her sentence.
In short, the moment the word "thank you" was uttered, the person collapsed.
[Defeat "Azure Demon Hand" Yi Ku, a top ten ranked expert on the Weapon Ranking, and gain 500 Destiny Points]
A message flashed through Gu Yu's mind, filling him with joy.
Unexpectedly, there are already 500 points. At this rate, I only need a little over 300 more points to reach 2000 points, at which point I can upgrade the Nine Yang Divine Skill.
Are you alright?
Sun Xiaohong rushed over quickly, circled around Gu Yu, her concern evident in her words.
The old man, Tianji, shook his head with a sigh, "My granddaughter's grown up; she can't stay with me any longer!"
Gu Yu, looking weak, said, "I should be fine..."
As soon as she finished speaking, her face suddenly flushed red, her body became burning hot, and she slumped softly to the ground.
"Hey, feed... Gu Yu, Gu Yu..."
In her anxiety, Sun Xiaohong forgot all about being shy and instinctively reached out to hug Gu Yu, tears streaming down her face.
"Wake up, wake up..."
Gu Yu slowly opened his eyes, looking as if he were barely breathing.
"Little...Little Red, I...I shouldn't have acted impulsively and fought with Yi Ku. I...I wanted to marry you, but...it's too late..."
"It's not too late, it's not too late. I'll marry you today. I'll get Grandpa to save you. You have to hold on, you have to hold on..."
The old man Tianji stormed over and shouted, "You brat, stop pretending! That's enough!"
Sun Xiaohong cried out, "Grandpa, please save him!"
"Save him? Only a girl like you would believe him. Look at his friends, they're all smirking!"
"I wasn't laughing!"
Ah Fei quickly said something, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.
Sun Xiaohong subconsciously turned around and looked at Gu Yu in her arms—
"Hey, honey, don't be angry, let me explain..."
Upon noticing that Sun Xiaohong's eyes were not right, Gu Yu finally stopped pretending and quickly jumped to the side.
"Come here, I promise I won't kill you!"
Sun Xiaohong had tears in her eyes, but a smile on her face. No one could guess what she was thinking. After all, a woman's thoughts are the hardest to fathom.
"No, I'll come over after you've calmed down."
"I've calmed down. As long as you're alright, it's okay if you lied to me."
"real?"
Gu Yu looked somewhat suspicious and slowly walked back.
"I'll teach you to lie to me, I'll teach you to lie to me..."
Sun Xiaohong grabbed his ear and twisted it, just like a shrewish wife at home.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch, honey, in front of so many people, at least give me some face."
Upon hearing this, Sun Xiaohong finally released her grip and snorted coldly, "If you dare to lie to me again, see how I deal with you."
"I won't do it again, I won't do it again."
Sun Xiaohong still seemed a little worried and asked again, "Are you really not poisoned?"
Gu Yu laughed and said, "You're letting me lie down again?"
Sun Xiaohong said fiercely, "Why don't you try lying down?"
"Then you weren't poisoned."
Ah Fei strode over and said with a smile, "Could you two stop flirting for a moment? There are so many people watching."
Upon hearing this, Sun Xiaohong's pretty face flushed, and she quickly ran to her grandfather's side.
At this moment, Gu Yu looked up at Li Xunhuan.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
"Ugh!"
Master Xinmei glanced at Yi Ku's corpse and couldn't help but sigh deeply.
He then raised his hand and said, "Let's go, we should continue on our way."
