I didn't expect that I was the heartthrob.

The people who came turned out to be several disciples of the Demon Sect.

They originally wanted to kill Xuekong because the Wanfo Sect had killed several elders of the Demon Sect who colluded with the Demon Sect. Those disciples were their disciples. When they learned that Xuekong was practicing alone, they wanted to capture Xuekong and harm him to vent their anger.

Seeing the giant python fighting with Xuekong in the forest, several people hid. They didn't dare to get close, for fear of alerting the snake. Later, they found that the giant python was not moving, and thick smoke rose in the forest again, so they wanted to check the situation.

Who knew there would be so many people.

Several people stood there in a daze.

Seeing Ji Yanli from Xuantian Sword Sect and Zhu Wenbo from Tianyan Sect also present, he quickly apologized with a smile, "What a coincidence, everyone is here, we are just passing by, passing by, hehe."

The few people who clasped their fists wanted to retreat, but it was not that easy.

Gu Lan has become familiar with Ji Yanli and Zhu Wenbo these days, so they have a tacit understanding.

As soon as Gu Lan moved, Ji Yanli and Zhu Wenbo knew what she was going to do and rushed over to her.

A few people wanted to retreat, but they found that there were three people standing behind them.

Xuekong chanted the Buddha's name.

He said, "Your master colluded with the demons to harm the neighbors, which is a heinous crime. My Wanfo Sect killed him to enforce justice! Not only did you not repent, you also followed me secretly, waiting for an opportunity to retaliate! I didn't want to get entangled with you, but you kept pressing me. Now that you have revealed yourself, I might as well capture you and bring you back to my sect to wait for your punishment."

Among them, there was one person with higher cultivation level, so he was not afraid of these disciples. However, he had just put on a cowardly smile in the team and actually wanted to slip away in front of them. Seeing that everyone thought so, he did not want to step out and followed everyone reluctantly. He was very unhappy at that time.

Now he was surrounded by these disciples again, and after listening to Xuekong nagging for a long time, he became even more furious and impatient.

He snorted coldly: "With just a bald donkey like you and these babies, what can you do to us? Don't be afraid, go ahead!"

He was the most skilled and courageous person in the team, and he usually rushed to the front. Now, when he heard him shouting to go ahead, he was a little hesitant.

The man was impatient and flew up first on his sword.

Yellow sword light flashed in the air, and a seven-star sword energy attacked Gu Lan. Gu Lan had no idea that he was coming towards him, so he hurriedly took out the sword that Mu Heyu had given him before.

Gu Lan named the three-fingered streamlined sword Zhaoying.

Because the sword's light could reflect a person, whenever Gu Lan held the sword, the sword would show her shadow, but outsiders could not see it at all.

Zhaoying emitted a bluish-white light, which collided with the sword of the Demon Sect's disciple, emitting a dazzling light. The sword of the Demon Sect's disciple was suppressed by Zhaoying's sword light and became weak for a moment.

The Demon Sect disciple was very unconvinced.

He was considered a disciple with better qualifications in the sect, and was appreciated by his master. He was a bit spoiled, so how could he be willing to be overshadowed by a little girl?

He quickly recited the formula, pointed his two fingers toward the sky, and the sword light suddenly became stronger. His sword moves were fierce and sharp, and a little cunning. Gu Lan was not careful for a moment, and was suppressed by his sword light, and could not even raise his head.

Several disciples of the Demon Sect were inspired by this momentum and they took out their swords and started fighting with the disciples of other sects.

In an instant, the dense forest was filled with precious light and sword energy soared into the sky!

Their weapons were varied; some used dice, some used fans, and some used red water caltrops. However, these disciples were still a far cry from the disciples who had just fought with Gu Lan. They only had some fancy moves and were pinned to the ground and beaten by the crowd in a short while.

Gu Lan was suppressed at first, but she soon realized that although the opponent's cultivation was higher than hers, his spiritual energy was insufficient, and the subsequent offensive would be difficult to sustain. So she stopped her sword style, closed her eyes and meditated for a moment, recalling Ji Yanli's sword moves.

Gu Lan was seen putting the index and middle fingers of his right hand together and placing them near his mouth, while his left hand fingers quickly formed seals. His fingers changed rapidly within a few seconds, while he kept reciting the sword techniques of the Xuantian Sword Sect in his mouth.

"Sky Sun and Moon Slash!" Ji Yanli was shocked. He could hardly believe his eyes.

He had only demonstrated the Changkong Riyue Slash of the Xuantian Sword Sect in front of Gu Lan once, just once, and it was not for teaching, but to capture Chi Ji and show off.

I didn't expect that Gu Lan could perform it so well after only seeing it once!

Zhu Wenbo saw Gu Lan's action, kicked the Demon Sect disciple, twisted him around, tapped his acupuncture points with two fingers quickly, and then said, "Changkong Sun and Moon Slash?"

"How do you know?" Shao Yu came closer.

"During the last competition, Senior Brother Ji Yanli used it."

After being reminded by Zhu Wenbo, Shao Yu recalled the shocking scene he saw during the last competition, and hurriedly shouted, "Ah, I know! Is it the sword fight against Ling Yebai!"

"Exactly!"

"That sword was brilliant! I didn't expect that Ling Yebai, a genius of his time, would be knocked off the stage by that sword and miss out on the top three." Shan Ling had also finished dealing with the Demon Sect disciples she was fighting with and walked over.

"But, when did Gu Lan learn it?" Shao Yu walked to Ji Yanli's side, "Did you teach him? You can't play it like this. What if Gu Lan uses the Changkong Sun and Moon Slash to kill me during the sect competition?"

"You think too much." Shan Ling looked at Shao Yu with disdain. With his rookie level, it was hard to say whether he could fight against Gu Lan.

Shao Yu's face froze. His previous performance was indeed weak, and this worry seemed a bit unnecessary. However, being looked at with such disdain by Shan Ling, his boyish heart was still a little hurt.

He said unconvincedly: "When you are away for three days, you should look at him with new eyes. Although my strength is not as good as Gu Lan's now, you wait and see. When my cultivation is improved, I will definitely be able to show my ability."

"Then we'll see the truth in the competition." Shan Ling said, and stopped looking at Shao Yu and continued to stare at Gu Lan.

Gu Lan was able to absorb spiritual energy at any time, so the spiritual energy that had just been lost was now almost replenished. She tried hard to recall how Ji Yanli used the Changkong Riyue Zhan, and then she was like in a trance. A voice told her: Concentrate your mind and calm your spirit, divide the spiritual energy of Fengmen and Tianzong into two parts, and fully activate Zhiyang's spiritual energy!

After hearing the voice, Gu Lan knew that he was referring to the acupuncture points, and hurriedly did as he said. He really felt that the spiritual energy that had been blocked just now seemed to have found an outlet and surged wildly.

At the last sentence, Gu Lan suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were like torches, gleaming with brilliance. Spiritual energy filled his fingers, and a stream of pure white spiritual energy shot straight at Zhaoying. Gu Lan chanted, "The sword energy of the stars dances. Cut the sun and the moon in the sky. Cut!"

With just a sound, the light that had been dimming suddenly became brighter and slashed straight towards the sword of the complacent Demon Sect disciple.

Seeing Zhaoying's aggressive momentum, the sword was actually afraid and terrified, so it fled without looking back. However, it was no faster than Gu Lan's Zhaoying. In just a moment, it was cut off by Zhaoying.

The Demon Sect disciple was so angry that he vomited blood for several feet and rolled down.
