At this time, Gu Xun's face was quite pale under the starlight refracted by the ice, and his breathing was somewhat heavy and rapid.
For a master like him, this is almost an impossible situation.
Concubine Yan on the side saw Gu Xun's weakness at this time, and leaned over quietly, protecting him behind her, and asked with concern, "How is it?"
Gu Xun waved his hand tiredly, "No problem."
"The ice soul cold air formation has its own circulation within the sky, which can suppress alien forces with minimal consumption. The true energy I retained when I built this ice prison is enough to sustain it for decades without any problems."
With such amazing results, the effort is naturally not small.
At this time, the true energy in Gu Xun's body has completely dried up, and he has reached the point where the oil is exhausted. In terms of the level of embarrassment, he is even more embarrassed than when he first came to the world of Qin Dynasty. When his internal strength had not yet reached the Great Perfection, he took the Jing Salamander and his daughter to wield swords.
Baili has exhausted his true energy and wants to go even further.
Even standing now is difficult.
Fortunately, things are different now. Dzogchen's internal energy allows him to recover his energy much faster than before. Even if his meridians are dry and exhausted, he can regain his energy in a short time.
In the past, this kind of excessive wear and tear would have been impossible to recover from without resting for half a day and a night.
With a little more strength, Gu Xun jumped off the ice platform, patted Concubine Yan on the shoulder, telling her not to be too nervous, and immediately walked towards the Great Elder of Shushan.
"Gu is true to his word, and Yu Yuan's restlessness has been completely suppressed."
Seeing that Gu Xun was obviously in a bad state, the Great Elder did not want to take advantage of others' danger. He said with emotion, "Your Excellency, I have made it even more difficult for me to understand."
Gu Xun shrugged indifferently, "There's nothing I don't understand. Lies and breach of trust are two different things."
"Gu did lie to Miss Shi about something, but I will definitely honor my promise."
Of course, the specific method of cashing out depends on his mood and thoughts.
Shi Qing, who was guarding the great elder, shook his eyes when he heard this, but in the end he did not make a sound.
So... was all I got in the end all lies?
The great elder stroked his beard with his palm, pondered for a moment, and looked sideways at the octagonal ice platform constructed by Gu Xun.
Yu Yuan's power was indeed completely suppressed within Yu Yuan, even more completely than before, with almost no breath leaking out.
And with his eyes, he could tell that Gu Xun's words were not false. The Ice Soul Cold Air Formation was indeed clever enough. With the help of the flow of breath inside, it was possible to use the huge power within the ice platform to suppress Yu Yuan without causing too much damage.
Loss.
Decades... are not lies.
"No matter what kind of unhappiness we had before, for the sake of Your Excellency sealing Yu Yuan, I can just write it off." The great elder of Shushan turned to look at Gu Xun, "But Shushan still doesn't welcome you. If nothing happens, please
Leave."
Gu Xun did make amends, but he was the one who caused the incident after all. It is obviously unrealistic to expect Shushan to be grateful to him for this.
The great elder of Shushan asked himself that he had tolerated Gu Xun enough, so that it had such serious consequences as Yu Yuan's restlessness.
He will not give in anymore. If Gu Xun continues to push forward, the entire Shushan tribe will have no choice but to fight to the death.
Gu Xun smacked his lips and replied, "Gu's purpose of coming to Shushan can be said to have been achieved, and it was achieved... very thoroughly."
"Thanks to the cooperation of the Great Elder. As for the unfortunate impact on your tribe, Gu is deeply sorry...Then the three of us will no longer disturb you."
As he spoke, Gu Xun glanced around the surrounding environment——
The original lush forest had been almost completely burned by the fire he had set before, and the vegetation in the distance had also been scorched black and dead. At first glance, it was bare, and it was as ugly as it was abrupt.
The originally damp and cold valley has become even colder due to the breath of the ice soul cold energy formation. Even in the summer, there is a biting chill that refreshes the heart and spleen.
How should I put it, there were no casualties, and there was basically no property damage, but the forbidden area of Yuyuan was destroyed, and the entrance to Yuyuan was completely exposed to the light of day.
Uh... Gu Xun can't say whether this loss is too big for Shushan, but he has already apologized 'sincerely'.
What else do you want!?
But after all, he still had some conscience. Finally, Gu Xun mentioned the Qin State's affairs again, "Gu will not participate in any future actions of the Qin State and the Yin Yang Family against Shu Mountain, nor will he provide any help."
"However, Gu has to remind the elder that Shushan is at the end of the road. The Yin and Yang family is determined to win the Fusang Shenmu. You can't hold it no matter what, so it's better to make plans in advance."
"Well... I personally suggest that it's better to give up when it's time to give up. Fighting stubbornly and fighting to the end will only increase casualties and is meaningless."
The great elder of Shushan was not annoyed by Gu Xun's disdain for his tribe. He nodded calmly, "Thank you for your reminder. I naturally know it well..."
Gu Xun shrugged when he heard the words. He didn't know if the other party heard it, so he turned around and left.
Seeing that he had indeed obtained enough valuable information from Yu Yuannai, his reminder was already a gesture of kindness, and whether the other party listened or not was not within his scope.
However, the great elder of Shushan stopped Gu Xun who was about to leave, and finally asked, "What is the purpose that you want to achieve at the risk of entering Yuyuan?"
Gu Xun stopped and unconsciously recalled the prompt that appeared on the system panel. After pondering for a moment, he shook his head slightly and said, "This... has nothing to do with Shushan."
"Well...it has nothing to do with all of you."
Not getting an answer, the great elder of Shushan did not continue to ask, silently watching Gu Xun and the others leave here along the fork in the mountain.
At this time, Shi Qing looked at the mess around him, turned his eyes back to the Great Elder, and said in a low tone, "Great Elder..."
The great elder raised his hand to stop Shi Qing from blaming himself, and comforted him, "This matter has nothing to do with your previous behavior."
"Gu Xun... is too dangerous and too powerful. Since he has set his sights on us in Shushan, even without you, we still can't escape this disaster."
"It would be better to say that because of your acquaintance with them, Qing'er, a lot of disputes... and casualties have been avoided."
The Great Elder's words successfully made Shi Qing retract his words of self-blame, but they did not completely dispel his inner thoughts.
The Great Elder saw this, but he had no other choice but to let Shi Qing come out slowly.
In any case, although Shushan suffered a big change this time, there were no casualties, and Yu Yuan's seal was not seriously affected, which is fortunate.
