Chapter 765: Slaying Mo Li (Please Subscribe)_1

```

Bowing slightly, Gu Linruo saw her ice-blue personal sword seized by Mo Li, and with Beautiful Eyes glancing at Xu Sheng lying on the ground, she said coldly, "Don't flatter yourself, I would rather die than be with a disgusting person like you!"

Upon hearing this, Mo Li's last bit of patience was drained, and he said darkly, "So you're playing the game of refusing the toast only to drink a forfeit? Well, no matter. Once I seal your spiritual power, you'll be nothing but a plaything at my mercy!"

As his words fell, he violently picked up his own sword and struck at Gu Linruo's ice-blue sword, slicing it into two halves…

He was determined to completely destroy Gu Linruo's hope, then in her despair and helplessness, forcefully engage with her!

Watching her personal sword shattered, Gu Linruo clenched her hand quietly, her Beautiful Eyes intently staring at Mo Li in front of her…

Just as the situation was on the brink, a familiar voice rang out…

"I've slept enough! Time to stretch my limbs."

Hearing this eerie voice, Mo Li's pupils shrank suddenly, and he shouted excitedly, "Who's there? Show yourself!"

The supposedly unconscious Xu Sheng on the ground slowly stood up, lightly dusting off his robe, and said with a faint smile, "What do you think, Senior Brother Mo?"

Seeing Xu Sheng awake, Gu Linruo's face lighted up with joy, "Junior Brother Xu, you're all right!"

Although she was overjoyed, she couldn't help but feel a small complaint at the bottom of her heart!

So everything that happened after he fainted was just Xu Sheng playing dead, causing her so much worry!

Opposite them, Mo Li's eyes were filled with fear, and he instinctively retreated two steps, gripping his sword and pointing it at Xu Sheng, his voice trembling, "Xu... Xu Sheng? Didn't you faint from using that martial technique? Why... why can you still stand up?"

With this, everything he was about to do had been exposed!!

Xu Sheng heard this and smiled gently, "Martial technique? Senior Brother Mo, from beginning to end, you seem to have misunderstood. When did I say it was a martial technique to enhance cultivation level?"

His cultivation level was higher than Gu Linruo's, but it was indeed a surprise that until now Mo Li thought he had used a martial technique!

Upon hearing this, Mo Li became completely dumbfounded, then began shaking his head violently as if trying to hypnotize himself, "No... impossible! You clearly fainted during the Five Peaks Contest too! Impossible! Impossible!"

The next second, something seemed to click in his mind, and his expression turned to manic joy, shouting, "I understand now! I get it! You're just bluffing!!"

After those words, the fear in his heart vanished instantly…

Xu Sheng pursed his lips slightly, not caring to explain any further!

There were too many fools these days, unable to even analyze the situation clearly!

His gaze turned to Gu Linruo who had been injured by Mo Li and said with a light smile, "Senior Sister Gu, you must have seen everything that happened just now, so now if I slay a fellow sect member, it shouldn't matter, right?"

Gu Linruo was about to ask Xu Sheng why he did it, but the next moment, she naturally understood his intention!

He simply wanted her to clarify things when they returned to the sect, to avoid unnecessary trouble!

Those increasingly refined Beautiful Eyes staring at Xu Sheng, she nodded solemnly, "Of course! Him remaining in the Xuantian Sect would just be a disaster. I will report all this truthfully to the sect when the time comes!"

The opposite Mo Li scoffed, "Kill me? Your bluff, I'm afraid you can't even exert the power of the Foundation Establishment Stage..."

Before he could finish, his face froze…

Because Xu Sheng had suddenly flashed in front of him, snatched the sword he was tightly gripping, and with a forceful squeeze, instantly shattered it to pieces…

In a daze, Mo Li, who had no time to react, said in shock, "Fake… it must be a fake??!"

But Xu Sheng didn't intend to give him a chance to speak further and pressed Mo Li's head down, ruthlessly smashing it towards the ground below...

When Mo Li's head intimately contacted the ground, a loud bang echoed as the ground cracked open suddenly…

Looking at Mo Li lying on the ground, still partially conscious and clinging to life, Xu Sheng said with slight surprise, "You're not dead yet!"

```

Mo Li spoke to Gu Linruo in a weak voice, "Save... save me, Gu... Junior Sister... I..."

Gu Linruo was known to be soft-hearted; she would never let Xu Sheng kill her!

As long as she spoke up, he would have a chance to live!

Seeing this bloody scene, a hint of pity rose in the heart of Gu Linruo, but then she suddenly thought of what had happened before...

If Xu Sheng were truly unconscious, her fate would be self-evident...

Immediately after, her heart hardened and she closed her Beautiful Eyes...

Seeing this, Mo Li completely lost hope!

Xu Sheng swept over him with a calm gaze, lifted his foot ruthlessly and stepped down, causing the former's head to burst open like a watermelon, splashing the ground with a crimson hue...

Mo Li really thought that by pleading with Gu Linruo, he might have a chance to live...

The one controlling his life was always Xu Sheng!

Right after, he casually waved his hand, letting mighty Spiritual Power erase these malevolent matters...

Then he walked towards Gu Linruo and spoke softly, "Senior Sister Gu, you can open your eyes now."

After hearing Xu Sheng's gentle voice, she finally opened her Beautiful Eyes, unconsciously scanning the area in front of her, and upon seeing only the blood-soaked ground, she realized that Mo Li had been dealt with!

She expressed her gratitude, "Junior Brother Xu, thank you so much. Otherwise..."

Xu Sheng responded, "Senior Sister Gu, there's no need for such courtesy. Weren't you protecting me before?"

An unusual feeling surfaced in Gu Linruo's heart, then, remembering something, she pointed at the Silver Moon Wolf King lying nearby and said, "That Silver Moon Wolf King..."

Xu Sheng glanced at the still prostrate Silver Moon Wolf King and explained, "Don't worry, the recovery ability of the Silver Moon Wolf King is very strong, but I'm afraid we will have to stay here tonight."

Gu Linruo's face turned crimson, although it was not visible under the cover of the moonlight...

She asked, slightly shy, "Eh? Junior Brother Xu, just the two of us?"

This adorable demeanor made Xu Sheng want to reach out and stroke her head, but after a moment of reflection, he withdrew his hand...

He teased in a light-hearted tone, "Senior Sister Gu, what are you thinking? Besides us, is there anyone else here?"

Gu Linruo clearly saw the moment Xu Sheng withdrew his hand and pursed her thin lips, remaining silent...

Had she just felt a tinge of disappointment?

...

The moonlight, bringing a slight chill, slowly scattered down, coating everything below in a faint layer of silver glow...

Xu Sheng's dark eyes gazed at Gu Linruo leaning on his chest, her tranquil appearance made him reluctant to wake her...

Little did he know, the Gu Linruo leaning against his chest had not fallen asleep!

Her heart was so tense she dared not move in the slightest!

In this awkward silence, the pitch-black night passed quietly...
