Gu Hanshan’s strike was undoubtedly murderous, not holding back at all, aiming to kill Fang Lin in the shortest time.

Fang Lin cursed under his breath, hurriedly using the Nine Heavens Step Skill, but he was a bit too slow.

First, Fang Lin was caught off guard when he emerged, his mind still on the mysterious woman in the ancient cave.

Second, Gu Hanshan had the advantage of surprise; his attack was swift and preemptive. always one step ahead.

Even with the Nine Heavens Step Skill, it was impossible for Fang Lin to immediately shift from danger to safety within such a short distance and time.

Boom!

Despite his best efforts to evade, Fang Lin was still hit on the shoulder by Gu Hanshan.

Hearing a ‘crack’ echoing from his shoulder, Fang Lin looked grave. He knew that his bones were probably broken.

However, there was no time to assess his injuries, so he forcefully gritted his teeth and dashed off suddenly.

Taking this opportunity to look around, Fang Lin quietly despaired. There wasn’t a single person nearby. It seemed that to facilitate the attack, Gu Hanshan had dispersed the others present.

This was a tough break for Fang Lin. Gu Hanshan, with his higher cultivation, easily overpowered him.

Right now, Fang Lin didn’t want to engage Gu Hanshan, so he struggled to escape. As long as he could get far enough away to meet other members of the Purple Mist Sect, Gu Hanshan wouldn’t dare lay a hand on him.

Unless, the ones he encountered were also Gu Hanshan’s allies.

But Fang Lin had terrible luck. The first person he encountered was Zhao Dengming!

Zhao Dengming appeared out of nowhere, blocking Fang Lin’s path with a murderous look on his face. A cruel smile played on his lips, and it was clear he meant Fang Lin harm.

Fang Lin cursed aloud, instantly changing his direction. His face was filled with rage, but between his brows, there lurked a hint of worry and anxiety.

“Where do you think you’re going!” Gu Hanshan and Zhao Dengming joined forces and began to pursue Fang Lin.

Fang Lin was evidently pushing the Nine Heavens Step Skill to its limit in order to prevent getting caught, but with both of his pursuers far surpassing him in cultivation, it was just a matter of time before they caught up.

Fang Lin was livid; this was Pill Sect territory and Gu Hanshan and Zhao Dengming had the audacity to attack him here. Could anything be more audacious?

“Fang Lin, prepare to die!” Just as he was lamenting, a new obstacle appeared, and it was Yu Zhen.

Fang Lin cursed loudly as he again changed direction.

Boom!

At that moment, a figure attacked from the shadows, landing a heavy palm on Fang Lin’s back.

Fang Lin spat out blood and stumbled a few steps forward. Struggling to turn his head, he realized his attacker was none other than the Elder in White Robes from Pill Pavilion.

Fang Lin bitterly laughed. To eradicate him, they had really pulled out all the stops, summoning three elders and even Gu Hanshan made a personal appearance.

Little did they realize, this was still Purple Mist Sect territory. Assassinating him here was truly risky.

Fang Lin didn’t want to die, but he was in grave danger. After being hit by the white-robed elder, he was severely injured and couldn’t run anymore.

When Gu Hanshan arrived, he immediately transformed his palm into a blade, slashing towards Fang Lin’s throat.

“Hmmph!” Just as Fang Lin was about to meet his end, there was a roar from the ancient cave in the distance.

The earth-shaking roar was like that of an ancient fierce demon trapped in the cave.

On hearing the thunderous roar, Gu Hanshan, Zhao Dengming, Yu Zhen, and the Elder in White Robes screamed out and collapsed unconscious.

As for Fang Lin, his vision blacked out, and he fainted immediately.

After an indeterminate period, Fang Lin woke up from unconsciousness, and found himself in his own room. A wave of relief washed over him.

“Finally, you’re awake! You scared me to death!” Dugu Nian was sitting at his side, a look of horror still on her face.

Fang Lin looked extraordinarily pale, he was severely injured. Several bones were broken and his internal injuries were even worse.

“Gu Hanshan!” Fang Lin gritted his teeth in hatred. This was the worst setback he’d experienced since his reincarnation. Had it not been for the woman in the cave coming to his aid, he would have been dead by now.

Dugu Nian couldn’t bear to see Fang Lin’s face twisted in anger and sighed,

“Don’t worry, that bastard Gu Hanshan has been taken away for questioning.”

Fang Lin nodded, trying to calm himself. Right now, his first priority was to recover from his injuries, everything else could wait.

In the most magnificent hall on Purple Mist Peak, a man took the central seat. He wore a green robe and had long hair. His face was handsome, yet his presence made Gu Hanshan below extremely nervous, his forehead covered in fine beads of sweat.

On either side of the hall, Xing Tianxiao and Gu Daofeng were present, along with some other elderly men whose presences were deep and terrifying.

Han Yinyue, standing beside Han Luoyun, looked frostily down at Gu Hanshan.

“Gu Hanshan, tell us once again what happened.” Han Yinyue began, her voice devoid of emotion.

Gu Hanshan gathered himself together. Even in such a situation, facing so many powerful figures of the Purple Mist Sect, including Sect Master Han Luoyun himself, he remained composed.

Repeating the story he had prepared, Gu Hanshan’s voice was extremely calm, showing no hint of guilt, as if everything had happened exactly as he was narrating.

Han Yinyue frowned slightly and questioned, “So, are you saying that an unforeseen event occurred in the ancient cave, and you instructed everyone to leave to prevent any accidents?”

Gu Hanshan nodded, “Yes, at that time many disciples of the Pill Sect saw Fang Lin being sucked into the cave. His fate was unknown. To prevent any further accidents, I had to make everyone leave.”

Han Yinyue’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Then why did Zhao Dengming and the others show up there afterward?”

Gu Hanshan replied again, “Fang Lin was still in the cave. I couldn’t just abandon him. But since my strength was limited, I asked Elder Zhao and the others for help.”

Without any pause, Han Yinyue continued her questioning, “The injuries on

Fang Lin’s body are clearly inflicted by a person. How do you explain this?”

Gu Hanshan looked straight into Han Yinyue’s eyes and replied, “When Fang

Lin emerged from the cave, he was already injured. It was not our doing.”

In short, he would never admit to it and would not let Han Yinyue find any solid evidence against him.

At this point, Gu Daofeng interjected calmly, “My son, as a true disciple of the Pill Sect, would never commit such a brash act. Moreover, the more important issue at hand is to figure out what exactly happened in the ancient cave. After such an incident, who from the Pill Sect would dare to enter the cave and study the stele?”

However, Han Yinyue was not easily convinced and her gaze remained fixed on Gu Hanshan.

“Do you know what Zhao Dengming and the others have said about this incident?” she asked coldly..
