Allure of a Country Maiden-Chapter 1264 - 1261_1

Gu Xuan quickly lit another talisman, aiming at Shangguan Xuanyi in the same way.

The moment Gu Xuan pulled out the talisman, Shangguan Xuanyi swiftly utilized his Qinggong technique to leave his previous position.

Xiao’er saw all this from within the space, rushed out hurriedly, then, wielding a century-old piece of peach wood, she directed it towards the green light, trying to force it back onto Gu Xuan.

A century-old willow wood has spiritual conduction, a century-old peach wood can ward off evil!

This was what Bai Tian had told Xiao’er.

Gu Xuan didn’t expect that Xiao’er would know to use century-old peach wood to counter his green light. He quickly recited some spells, and the green light immediately disappeared!

"Princess Rui! Good! Really good!" Gu Xuan suddenly exclaimed. Xiao’er didn’t know what he was praising.

After saying this, Gu Xuan started chanting some words again.

He spoke too fast! No one could hear clearly what he was saying.

After Shangguan Xuanyi dodged the green light, he quickly came behind Gu Xuan and aimed a palm strike directly at Gu Xuan’s back.

Gu Xuan quickly threw two bottles at Shangguan Xuanyi while rapidly chanting a spell!

Shangguan Xuanyi struck one of the bottles with his palm, the bottle instantly shattered!

Xiao’er struck down the black bug that flew out of the other bottle with a dart!

Just how many black bugs does Gu Xuan have?! Xiao’er wondered.

"Gu Xuan, are you some sort of bug breeder? Why are you so obsessed with rearing bugs?"

After finishing her sentence, Xiao’er, wielding her peach wood, struck at Gu Xuan.

Shangguan Xuanyi, after shattering the bottle with a palm strike, continued with a second strike towards Gu Xuan.

Gu Xuan finished reciting his spell, dodged but not completely. Shangguan Xuanyi’s palm hit him on the back of his shoulder, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

Xiao’er was in the middle of attacking him, but she couldn’t dodge in time and quickly lifted her sleeve to cover her face.

Gu Xuan was seriously injured; he knew he couldn’t escape!

However, the two of them were mistaken if they thought that killing him would be easy! They would pay a price for daring to kill him!

If he couldn’t possess the space, then he’d destroy it!

If he couldn’t have something, neither could anyone else!

Gu Xuan let out a roar!

He spewed a mouthful of blood onto a spirit talisman, instantly setting it alight till it was burned to ashes.

Gu Xuan struck his palm towards Xiao’er.

This strike contained all of Gu Xuan’s lifelong efforts and magical skills.

Shangguan Xuanyi wanted to stop him, but he found himself blocked by an invisible force when he got close!

"Careful, girl!"

Xiao’er tried to retreat into the space, but she couldn’t!

So she swiftly raised her hand, using all her strength to counteract Gu Xuan’s incoming palm.

A loud "Crack!" rang out, both of them coughed up a mouthful of blood and their bodies were thrown back simultaneously.

At this point, the invisible force disappeared!

Shangguan Xuanyi quickly flew over, catching Xiao’er before she fell to the ground.

"Brother Shangguan..." Xiao’er managed to say these four words before she fell unconscious.

"Girl! Girl..." Shangguan Xuanyi called out, interrupting himself when several kids suddenly appeared in front of him.

Instead of feeling joy at seeing the children, his heart was filled with an ominous feeling.

At the same time Xiao’er fainted, the four children in the space were also suddenly ejected.

They were asleep in the space! Suddenly leaving it, they opened their eyes, confused, and stared at the unfamiliar environment around them!

Then the four children saw their father and mother, quickly crawled up from the ground, and took two shaky steps towards Shangguan Xuanyi and Xiao’er. They reached out to tug at their clothes, mumbling, "Father..."

"Mother..."

Shangguan Xuanyi didn’t speak. He quickly took out a pill and fed it to Xiao’er.

At this moment, Gu Xuan, who was lying on the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood and struggled to sit up!

Seeing the children, a hint of maliciousness flashed in his eyes!

He quickly took out the last vial on his body and threw it towards the roof.

After he tossed the vial, Gu Xuan scrambled to his feet and ran off.

Shangguan Xuanyi noticed Gu Xuan’s actions. He quickly raised his head and at the same time shot a golden needle, hitting a black bug that was close to the roof!

Shangguan Xuanyi wanted to chase after Gu Xuan! But as soon as he moved, the four children grabbed onto his clothes, saying in a childish voice, "Father..."

"Mother... scared."

Shangguan Xuanyi could only try to see if the space ring could be used, planning to put the children into the space ring! Then he found that his consciousness could connect to the space ring, giving him a glimmer of hope in his heart!

Perhaps Xiao’er had only fainted because of her severe injuries! It was not as he feared!

Yes, Xiao’er would wake up soon!

With this thought in mind, Shangguan Xuanyi said to the four children, "Your mother has been injured by the bad man and is now unconscious! Your father has to go and take revenge for your mother and cannot take care of you. I’m going to send you to a room, can you play by yourselves?"

Although not very articulate, the four children could understand what adults were saying!

All four nodded.

Nuannuan said unclearly, "Hit the bad guy!"

"Alright!" Shangguan Xuanyi agreed, then put the four children into the space ring.

Luckily, the space ring still worked this time, otherwise he didn’t know how he would take the four children back home!

After settling the four children, Shangguan Xuanyi carried Xiao’er and quickly ran out.

At this moment, Gu Xuan and Li Guzi were in a stalemate in their fight!

However, because Gu Xuan was severely injured, he was obviously at a disadvantage!

Li Guzi found an opening and struck him in the chest. Gu Xuan, who had received three palm strikes, spat out another mouthful of blood and flew out.

Gu Xuan fell heavily to the ground. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he revealed a strange grin, "I’m going to die! They won’t wake up either! Haha..."

As Gu Xuan laughed, he spat out more blood, then he closed his eyes.

Upon hearing his words, Li Guzi’s face changed. He quickly ran over to Gu Xuan, felt his breath and pulse, then looked at Shangguan Xuanyi, "He’s dead, what do we do?"

His daughter wouldn’t really never wake up like Gu Xuan said, would she?

When Gu Xuan mentioned ’they’, Shangguan Xuanyi knew he was referring to Xiao’er and Li Guzi’s daughter!

But even if Gu Xuan wasn’t dead, he would absolutely not revive them!

Shangguan Xuanyi glanced at Gu Xuan, coldness welling up in his eyes!

"He deserved to die! We will have to find another way!"

Li Guzi also understood what Shangguan Xuanyi meant. Indeed! Even if Gu Xuan wasn’t dead, he would not revive them!

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to do this!

"What’s wrong with Princess Rui?" Li Guzi asked as he looked at Xiao’er, who was in Shangguan Xuanyi’s arms.

"She was hit by Gu Xuan and is severely injured."

Li Guzi nodded upon hearing this, then said nothing else. He searched Gu Xuan’s body to see if there was anything unusual.

There must be a place to put his daughter’s soul, he thought.

Then Li Guzi found a vial on Gu Xuan’s body.

When he opened the vial, he saw a small grass swaying inside.
