Book 07 Chapter 146: The Self-Harming Mister Starless

Gu Hai turned grave at the information from Mister Starless.

Initially, he thought he could capture Jiang Gautama with Vairocanas help. However, when he heard what Jiang Gautama had hidden, he inhaled sharply.

No. Not at what Jiang Gautama had hidden but Jiang Lianshans acc.u.mulations.

During Long Zhanguos time, the Qian Heavenly Emperor had monopolized all the glory. Who could have imagined Jiang Lianshan had acc.u.mulated such strength?

The various factions in the world had a shadow of Jiang Lianshan in them. Furthermore, there were many other things hidden.

The Divine Dao Shaman Canon aside, the divine blood replication was already enough to shock Gu Hai. Now, there was some Heaven-defying treasure?

This trip was not as simple as he had thought.

This is also why Ji Dihong won the fight over the Divine Dao Shaman Canon yet still refused to clash head-on with Jiang Gautama. Father, you must be careful. If it is not feasible, never force it. Take the long approach with Mothers matter, Mister Starless advised earnestly.

Gu Hai nodded. Dont worry. Father knows that. However, since I am here already, Father will go to the second layer of h.e.l.l. Your mother cannot wait too long.

Oh? Mister Starless felt slightly startled.

The White Emperor wrote to me, and I received the letter. Little Tang has escaped. This means Jiang Gautama has captured the White Emperor. Im already here. If I do not save her, I will not feel at ease. Furthermore, Father is not helpless in battle, Gu Hai said.

Oh? Mister Starless said in shock.

Mister Starless had already described how horrifying Jiang Gautama was. Given his understanding of his father, Gu Hai would not say such words without a certain level of confidence. This meant his father was more powerful than he had imagined.

Yes. Then, Father, be careful, Mister Starless said respectfully.

The battle outside should be almost over. Father will help you cover up, so you wont be suspected after you leave, Gu Hai said seriously.

Theres no need. This child can do it myself, Mister Starless said respectfully.

After speaking, Mister Starless immediately soared up and waved. Many stars crashed into him.

Rumble!

The many stars dealt Mister Starless heavy blows, severely injuring him and tearing most of his clothes. Now, he presented a sorry sight.

Gu Hai felt slightly worried. Among his four sons, Gu Ming had the most extreme personality. To think he could harm himself so casually?

s.h.i.+ng!

Suddenly, thousands of sabers of stars appeared among the stars, pointing at Mister Starless.

Gu Hais face sank. Thisthis many sabers is too much, right?

Attack! Mister Starless shouted.

Boom!

The thousands of sabers tore through Mister Starlesss body.

Argh!

Mister Starless shrieked in the sky. Then the surging star storm exploded.

Shattered rocks filled the sky, spraying everywhere. This allowed Kong Xuan and Ao Ying to see Gu Hai.

Gu Hai stood in the sky, holding the Life Executioner Saber as he coldly looked into the distance.

The millions of stars exploded as if Gu Hai had cut them apart, which resulted in the sabers of stars Mister Starless created slicing through himself.

Mister Starlesss body was mangled, cut in multiple places. White bones showed at his arms, legs, and other parts of his body; even half his face had been crusheda terrible sight.

Mister Starless! The distant Ao Yings expression changed as he wanted to rush over.

How could Kong Xuan be willing to let him?

Hahahaha! Trying to leave? You can forget about it. Ao Ying, I am your opponent! Kong Xuan shouted coldly.

Boom!

Kong Xuan hammered Ao Ying, delaying Ao Ying.

Cough! Cough! Cough!

The distant Mister Starless coughed blood, staring at the distant Gu Hai with horrified eyes. To others, Gu Hai had clobbered Mister Starless.

Only Gu Hai knew Mister Starless had done this to himself.

Gu Hai had not expected Mister Starless to go to such an extent. Gu Hai realized for the first time how incomparably ruthless this son was to himself.

Simply too ruthless!

Mister Starless suffered plenty of physical injuries. Had there been more, it would have harmed his foundation. However, he gritted his teeth, not even frowning.

Gu Hais emotions were complicated. Simultaneously, he understood how cruel Mister Starlesss circ.u.mstances were.

Since Mister Starless had already gone this far, Gu Hai had to play along.

Humph! Speak! Why are you here?! Gu Hai said coldly as he held up his saber.

Cough! Cough! Cough! Gu Hai? Hah! Hahaha! You will forever regret not killing me earlier! Hahaha! Mister Starless cackled maniacally.

Forever regret? Gu Hai appeared confused as his face sank.

Bang!

Just then, a beam of light rushed out of the entrance to the second layer of h.e.l.l. Emperor Kong had returned.

Lets go!

After Emperor Kong appeared, he immediately tossed out a Reincarnation Lotus. A pa.s.sageway heading out opened.

When Ao Ying saw Emperor Kong come out, his eyes lit up.

Gu Hai, just you wait! Mister Starless rushed into the exit.

Trying to leave? How can it be that easy? Eighth Cycle! Gu Hai swung his saber.

Boom!

An enormous manifested saber rushed over, looking like it would overwhelm Mister Starless.

Gu Hai, you should stop before you go too far! Emperor Kong shouted as he tossed out a golden scroll.

When the golden scroll appeared, it released a bright, golden light at the manifested saber.

Mister Starless also waved, manifesting a saber of stars that swung at the Eighth Cycle.

Boom!

A loud report rang out as the saber of stars exploded along with the many other stars. Even Emperor Kongs golden scroll exploded.

Blargh!

Mister Starless vomited another mouthful of blood from the rebound, which sent him flying backwards into the Reincarnation Lotuss exit.

Emperor Kong also stumbled, but he immediately turned around and fled into the Reincarnation Lotuss exit.

Hahaha! Gu Hai, Kong Xuan, we will meet again! Ao Ying shouted.

Boom!

s.p.a.ce exploded from an exchange of palm strikes with Kong Xuan. Then Ao Ying stepped into the Reincarnation Lotuss exit. As he left, he shattered the Reincarnation Lotus, making the exit vanish.

What? Kong Xuan felt furious.

Gu Hai also appeared furious.

Search the place. Do not leave anywhere out. See if there are other rats around! Gu Hai roared irately.

Yes! the two hundred thousand Divine Demon Army soldiers answered.

------

A forest in the Divine Continent:

Blargh!

Mister Starless spewed a mouthful of blood as he fell at the foot of a mountain. Blood covered his entire body, presenting a miserable sight.

Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+

Emperor Kong and Ao Ying quickly followed behind. The spatial tunnel behind them soon vanished after they came out.

Mister Starless, how are you? Emperor Kong and Ao Ying rushed over.

Blargh! I wont die, Mister Starless said resentfully, vomiting blood.

Emperor Kong immediately took out a medicinal pill for Mister Starless to consume, while Ao Ying helped stop Mister Starlesss bleeding.

Gu Hai is quite powerful. Hah! I thought I could fight him. Unexpectedlyunexpectedly, Gu Hai had hidden his skills so deeply! Mister Starless said miserably.

That Gu Hai is indeed strange. It is already a miracle that you survived, Ao Ying said.

Do you think Gu Hai will die in there, given Jiang Gautamas acc.u.mulations? Cough! Cough! Mister Starless asked weakly.

Its difficult! Emperor Kong frowned.

Why? Is Gu Hai really that capable? Mister Starless said skeptically.

This Gu Hai is extraordinary. He excels at escaping death. Have you forgotten how many difficult situations he has been in? When has he failed to flee? Even when he rebelled against Heaven with Long Zhanguo, he managed to escape the Six Paths Immortal. What more this time? His Holy Eminence has noticed this trait of Gu Hais; thats why we are risking ourselves to find Gu Tangs souls, Emperor Kong guessed.

This Gu Hai is very hardy. Cough! Cough! Cough! Humph! I will repay todays humiliation a hundredfold in the future! Mister Starless said with a ruthless grimace.

Mister Starless, it is all thanks to you this time. Otherwise, things would not have gone this smoothly, Emperor Kong sighed.

The Jiang Gautama replicas had blocked Vairocana, and Ao Ying had blocked Kong Xuan. The Divine Demon Army soldiers were fine. Gu Hai was the difficult one to deal with. However, Mister Starless had faced this danger. Although he had sustained severe injuries, all injuries could be recovered from as long as one survived.

That is just my duty. By the way, Emperor Kong, did you find them? Gu Tangs souls? Mister Starless asked with antic.i.p.ation.

Emperor Kong smiled faintly. Naturally. When has Mister Cangjies divination ever been wrong?

Thats good. We will be able to give an account to His Holy Eminence. Mister Starless smiled.

Indeed. It turned out to be smooth sailing. Gu Tang was quite clever; he hid among a group of evil ghosts killing each other, appearing unremarkable. Who would have expected that? If not for Mister Cangjies directions, no one could have found him, Emperor Kong said.

Mister Starless nodded. Prime Ao, the Reincarnation Lotus brought us out at a random location. Where are we?

Let me check! Ao Ying immediately soared into the sky to scout the surroundings.

Cough! Cough! Cough! Mister Starless suddenly started coughing again.

Mister Starless, are you alright? Emperor Kong asked worriedly.

Blargh! Mister Starless vomited another mouthful of blood.

This Gu Haino, Gu Tangcaused me to be so miserable. Emperor Kong, can you let me take a look at the cause of all this? Mister Starless said with fury on his face as he spat out blood.

Seeing Mister Starlesss miserable appearance, Emperor Kong found it hard to reject his request. After all, he had helped Emperor Kong block Gu Hai and sustained severe injuries in the process. What would one look matter?

Dont damage them! Emperor Kong took out a small blue ball with a flip of his hand. There seemed to be blue light flowing in the small ball.

Mister Starless received the ball and looked into it. This Gu Tang is why I am in such a miserable state? Cough! Cough! Cough! Blargh!

Mister Starless suddenly spewed another mouthful of blood, this time towards Emperor Kongs face.

Emperor Kong instinctively turned his face to dodge. A beam of blue light shot out of Mister Starlesss tattered sleeves at this moment. Then the blue light originally in the small ball entered Mister Starlesss sleeve in exchange.

Mister Starless swapped Gu Tangs souls when Emperor Kong turned his head after diverting Ao Ying away.

Emperor Kong, sorry. II could not suppress my injuries, Mister Starless apologized.

Its fine. The blood did not get on me. However, your injuries are too severe. We need to return quickly and ask His Holy Eminence to treat your injuries, Emperor Kong said while shaking his head.

Mister Starless nodded as he returned the small ball to Emperor Kong, who immediately put the ball away.

I found our location. Lets go! Ao Ying said after flying back.

Whoos.h.!.+

Carried by Ao Ying, the three turned into a beam of light disappearing into the horizon.
