Chapter 1783
The Mystic Energy Rope was invisible and formless. No one could see it as it flew through the air.
As long as he was tied up, Gu Chen was confident that he could subdue the Peach Blossom Householder in an instant.
Although Householder Peach Blossom's power couldn't even break through his Tyrant Body's defense, he couldn't use his Tyrant Body divine ability in front of everyone.
Therefore, it would be best if he could use the Twisting Finger Secret Technique to take him down.
"What a terrifying body cultivator!"
As Householder Peach Blossom retreated, he was bewildered.
Previously, when the Peach Blossom Rain was unable to break the other party's physical body, he guessed that the other party was a body cultivator.
He had used his full strength in that strike just now. Logically speaking, it should have been enough to kill an ordinary Body Cultivator. At the very least, it should have been enough to force the other party to take it seriously.
However, the aggressive sword was caught by two fingers, and the other party was as still as a mountain, without any signs of activating the Dao Energy in his body!
At that moment, he immediately understood that the strength of his enemy's body had reached an extremely troublesome level. He immediately made a judgment that he had to increase the distance between them!
Engaging in close combat with a body cultivator was definitely courting death. As an experienced assassin, he would not do such a stupid thing.
As he retreated, he thought about how to deal with the enemy, but his eyelids suddenly twitched again.
Swoosh.
His body suddenly rolled to the side, as if he was avoiding something!
After dodging, he looked at the place where he had sensed it, but there was nothing there. His eyes were filled with fear.
"Huh? He can actually dodge the sneak attack of the Mysterious Energy Rope? Can this guy see it?" Gu Chen was rather surprised that he did not succeed. He retracted his hand, and the Mysterious Energy Rope flew back and shot out again.

Master Peach Blossom noticed the movement of Gu Chen's wrist and immediately confirmed that it wasn't an illusion. Gu Chen had really used some kind of attack that he couldn't see.
He nimbly leaped to the side, once again avoiding the attack. This time, Gu Chen looked at him more seriously.
"As expected, it wasn't a coincidence. How did this guy sense the existence of the Mysterious Energy Rope?"
Gu Chen murmured. If the mystical rope caught the enemy off guard, even a Five-fold Realm master would be done for. However, if it lost its concealment, its effect would be greatly reduced. After all, although the mystical technique energy that he could store was increasing every day, it was only eight thousand after being converted into Tao Power.
Gu Chen could tell that Householder Peach Blossom's strength was a genuine Five-fold Realm expert. The Dao Power in his body was more than 655,555. If he could not accidentally tie him up, the mysterious rope would not be very effective even if it successfully tied him up.
Master Peach Master Peach Blossom Chen knew it would not be, but Gu Chen knew it would not like to attack.
He needed to determine how his opponent saw through his attacks, which would help him accumulate experience.
Master Peach Blossom did not know how serious the consequences would be if he was hit by Gu Chen's attack. When he thought about how frightened he was when he approached Gu Chen, he did not dare to take the attack head-on when he could not see it.
Thus, a very strange scene appeared in the banquet hall.
The famous Peach Blossom Layman jumped and rolled around as if he was trying to dodge something. However, nothing happened in front of him. It was as if he was playing a monkey.
If not for the fact that Gu Chen had already stood up and was shaking his right wrist from time to time, allowing people to vaguely guess what he might have done, everyone would have suspected that this Peach Blossom Householder was crazy.
There was no dazzling Taoist light, nor was there any Taoist power stirring. The exchange of blows between the two was very strange. However, the officials present could clearly feel that the Peach Blossom Householder was at a disadvantage!
One was standing calmly, while the other was running and rolling all over the place without a care for his image. Even a fool could tell who was better, okay?
"What is the background of the Tang family's revered guest? How could he force Householder Peach Blossom into such a sorry state?!"
"I was wondering why Tang Xuance brought an unfamiliar face with him today. It turns out that he came prepared!"
The officials whispered among themselves, feeling uneasy.
Today, they had joined forces to force King Pei. Firstly, they were afraid of Prince Wu Lie's methods. Secondly, they wanted to protect their own interests.
They had thought that King Pei's abdication was already a foregone conclusion. They did not expect Tang Xuance to be so protective of his master.
Tang Xuance's loyalty served as a foil to their disloyalty. If they failed to force King Pei to abdicate today, they would be criticized by others!
Thus, they could not wait for Tang Xuance to die in the hands of Peach Blossom Householder. Who would have thought that such a variable would occur!
"This fellow's strength has reached such a level!"
Shao Jianmin was also very uneasy. His expression was exceptionally gloomy. He was worried that something unexpected would happen if this continued.
As the leader of the officials who had forced King Pei to abdicate, he had already completely submitted to Prince Wu Lie. He had no way out compared to the others.
"With such strength, it's very likely that He Yang was killed by him!" Shao Jianwu said through gritted teeth. These words made Shao Jianmin's heart overflow with killing intent.
The matter was obvious. Shao Heyang had Elder Wei and a large group of guards by his side. It was impossible for a person with ordinary strength to kill them all. Not a single fish had escaped the net.
The person who could completely silence them had to be an expert, at least at the level of the Luo Sect's Prophet.
However, after the core members of the Luo Sect disappeared, Shao Heyang had sent back a message saying that it was unlikely that the person who attacked him was the Luo Sect's Prophet or any other expert.
If that was the case, who else could kill Shao Heyang in the Luo Sect's territory?

After all, Shao Jianmin was his son. He understood Shao Heyang's temperament very well. Shao Heyang had become enemies with Chen Yi during the entrance examination. Now that the Luo Sect was no longer restricted, if the two of them met, it was very likely that Shao Heyang would attack him.
Thus, this matter was completely understandable. It also explained why Tang Xuance had not introduced Chen Yi before!
"So that's what happened."
After pursuing Peach Blossom Householder for a while, with Gu Chen's insight, he quickly understood how Peach Blossom Householder was able to dodge the mysterious rope's attack.
The secret technique's energy was formless. After it was refined and condensed into a mysterious rope, its energy waves were even more restrained. Thus, it was possible to launch a successful sneak attack without causing too much of a commotion, just like how he attacked High Official Gu.
However, when it flew through the air, even if the energy was restrained, it would still cause some abnormalities in the airflow.
Peach Blossom Householder could not see the mysterious rope like the others, but he was keenly aware of the abnormalities in the airflow. Thus, he was able to dodge the attack.
After successfully dodging the first time, he noticed another flaw of his, which was the slight shake of his wrist.
From the angle of the shake of his wrist, he could roughly determine the direction of his attack, which made it even easier for him to dodge. Thus, no matter what he did, he could not take him down.
His opponent had displayed superb intuition and observation skills, which were essential for a successful assassin.
Even after understanding his flaw, Gu Chen could not improve on it for the time being.
The abnormalities in the airflow caused by the mysterious rope's movement were difficult to disappear. He could only choose to reduce the speed of the attack, but that would not work as a surprise attack.
As for the small movements of his wrist when he attacked, it could be resolved, but he would have to wait until he had mastered the Twisting Fingers Secret Technique.
It was not easy to condense the mysterious rope. It was still difficult to control it purely with his mind, and it could easily reduce its power and accuracy.
When he had refined the mysterious rope until it was fine enough to wrap around his fingertips, he would be able to control it purely with his mind!
"The Twisting Fingers Secret Technique is useless against this guy. There's no point in continuing this stalemate. Looks like I have no choice but to attack."
Gu Chen mumbled to himself and finally took a step forward.
The moment he took this step, Peach Blossom Householder, who had been guarding against him, felt his scalp go numb. He actually turned around and swiftly fled the banquet hall!
