Chapter 1571 Not Tough Enough
The next moment, a large hand suddenly grabbed Gu Fang.
Gu Fang, who was originally like a small mountain, was thrown onto the beach like a piece of rotten stone.
A familiar face appeared in his line of sight.
It was Chen Xuan!
"Girl, are you alright?"
Chen Xuan looked at Gu Hong and asked.
"I... I'm fine..."
In her sight, Chen Xuan's head was bathed in radiance, like a savior descending, causing Gu Hong's heart to flutter.
"Kid, who are you? Why haven't I seen you in District One?"
Gu Fang picked himself up from the ground, his face gloomy, and roared at Chen Xuan.
Gu Ye noticed the situation and also put down the roasted meat, rushing over.
"Brother, you should leave quickly. They're here, and you're no match for them. I can't implicate you!" Gu Hong said hurriedly.
"I've been waiting for them!"
Chen Xuan smiled faintly.
The slovenly Taoist nodded in agreement, "It's not easy to find two people in such a large District One, so we can't miss this opportunity."
Gu Hong was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "You're not from District One. Do you want their identity tokens?"
Chen Xuan smiled and said nothing.
At this moment, the brothers Gu Fang and Gu Ye had already rushed over.
Their eyes were filled with a murderous intent towards Chen Xuan.
"Kid, how dare you interfere in our business? I think you don't want to live!" Gu Fang said coldly.
Gu Ye said, "Brother, don't be so aggressive. However, since this kid dared to ruin your plans, he deserves some punishment."
"Brother, what do you mean?" Gu Fang was stunned.
Gu Ye sneered, "I heard of a custom called 'lighting up the sky lantern,' which sounds quite interesting. Why don't we have him give us a demonstration?"
"Brilliant! Brother, you are truly brilliant!"
Gu Fang's eyes lit up, and he gave Gu Ye a thumbs-up.
He turned to Chen Xuan and the slovenly Taoist and said, "Kid, consider yourselves lucky. My brother has pleaded for you. Hurry up and give us a demonstration."
The so-called lighting up the sky lantern was an ancient form of torture.
The prisoner would be stripped naked, wrapped in burlap, and soaked in an oil vat. At night, they would be tied to a tall wooden pole with their head down and feet up, and then ignited from their feet.
Chen Xuan's lips curled into a cold smile, "Stop the nonsense, hand over your identity tokens quickly, or don't blame me for playing the 'lighting up the sky lantern' game with you."
"You are indeed not from District One. Who exactly are you?"
Gu Fang still didn't recognize Chen Xuan.
However, after observing Chen Xuan for a few glances, Gu Ye recognized him and excitedly said, "Good, it's truly a case of nowhere to find something, yet it appears right before your eyes!"
"Brother, who is this?" Gu Fang frowned.
"He's the attendant who offended Gu Tianxing."
"It's him?!"
Gu Fang's eyes gleamed.
He squinted at Chen Xuan and said with a cold smile, "Kid, we were planning to settle the score with you later, but you've come right to our doorstep. Surrender now!"
Gu Ye's aura erupted, and he was ready to strike.
"Slovenly Taoist, do you want to go, or should I?" Chen Xuan glanced at the slovenly Taoist and asked.
"You go ahead, they're just two little kids..."
The slovenly Taoist waved his hand, his eyes fixed on the almost ready roasted meat in the distance, his mouth watering.
Clearly, in his eyes, the roasted meat was more interesting than Gu Fang and Gu Ye.
Hearing Chen Xuan and the slovenly Taoist's conversation, Gu Hong was dumbfounded.
Why did it feel like Gu Fang and Gu Ye were the lambs waiting to be slaughtered?
Had she misheard?
"You can all come at me together!"
Chen Xuan took a few steps forward, waving at the brothers Gu Fang and Gu Ye.
The slovenly Taoist headed straight for the roasted meat, showing no intention of intervening.
"Kid, aren't you too arrogant!"
Gu Fang and Gu Ye's eyes were filled with anger.
"Stop the nonsense, are you fighting or not?"
Chen Xuan pouted, looking impatient.
The brothers Gu Fang and Gu Ye exchanged glances, seeing the anger in each other's eyes, nodded slightly, and then roared, "Kid, you're asking for trouble!"
Saying that, the internal energy surged from their bodies, and their pressure descended.
Boom!
The two of them shot up into the sky like meteors, charging towards Chen Xuan.
"Boom boom boom!!"
Chen Xuan tapped his toes and met them head-on.
The strength of Gu Fang and Gu Ye was formidable, far exceeding any opponents he had encountered before. Moreover, the brothers Gu Fang and Gu Ye seemed to have mastered a secret art for dual combat, making their attacks even sharper and more unpredictable.
However, in the face of absolute strength, nothing mattered.
Chen Xuan fought with one hand, exchanging blows with Gu Fang and Gu Ye, not falling into any disadvantage.
On the beach, Gu Hong watched this scene, her jaw almost dropping in surprise.
How could Chen Xuan be so strong?
"Young lady, come and help me roast the meat." The slovenly Taoist's voice came.
"Okay..."
Gu Hong heard this, nodded, and quickly brought some firewood over.
"Senior, let me do the roasting."
"Alright, since you're so polite, I won't refuse."
The slovenly Taoist stood up and waved his hand, then suddenly froze, "How did you know I was a senior? I'm not a senior..."
"Although you look young, your strength is immense. Among this batch of disciples, there's definitely no one with your level of strength. I assume you've used a disguise?" Gu Hong mused, analyzing the situation.
"You're quite intelligent, young lady," the slovenly Taoist said with a chuckle.
Gu Hong roasted the meat, occasionally looking up at the sky, "Will everything be alright?"
The slovenly Taoist smiled and said, "Don't worry, he hasn't even unleashed thirty percent of his strength. If he were to truly fight, those two wouldn't be able to withstand even a single move."
"How can he be so strong? How old is he?"
Gu Hong couldn't believe it.
From their conversation, she had also understood that Chen Xuan was Gu Lingyun's attendant. According to the clan's rules, the age of an attendant was not allowed to exceed twenty-eight. Therefore, Chen Xuan's age could not be more than twenty-eight, meaning he was not wearing a disguise.
Then he was this strong?
Gu Hong found it hard to believe, but suddenly a rumble echoed.
She looked up sharply and saw the brothers Gu Fang and Gu Ye, who had been fighting Chen Xuan, crash into the spiritual pool. She was stunned.
So strong!!
Chen Xuan shook his head slightly, "Not tough enough."
He wasted no more time, diving into the spiritual pool and dragging the two out onto the beach like dead dogs.
He reached out and felt around their bodies. The two had already been acupoint-sealed by Chen Xuan, and could only watch helplessly as Chen Xuan snatched their identity tokens.
"Kid, you dare to steal our identity tokens, you're finished!"
"Kid, you've stolen our identity tokens, Brother Tianxing will never let you go!"
Chen Xuan remained unmoved and continued to drag Gu Fang and Gu Ye on the ground.
Even though they were on the sand, they were still scraped by stones, their faces contorted in pain. They couldn't curse Chen Xuan anymore, but their eyes grew increasingly venomous.
Soon, they arrived beside the barbecue grill.
