Chapter 879: Chapter 463: A Hairpin "What? Gone?" Gu Sheng was shocked and quickly asked, "Gone? Wasn’t he just killed by the dragon?" Old Li shook his head: "No, someone saw him escape with their own eyes, but now, he has suddenly disappeared." A chill ran through Gu Sheng’s heart. He knew that in such situations, any unexpected event could lead to dire consequences. He was about to ask for more details when a miner came running back. Breathless, he approached Gu Sheng and said, "Foreman, I just heard Old Li was looking for Tu Fei?" "Yes, did you see him? Could it be he left the barrier on his own?" Gu Sheng nodded and asked. "No, I heard someone saw Tu Fei sneak into the mine while everyone wasn’t paying attention." The miner pointed to the location of the mine. "What?" Gu Sheng and Old Li exclaimed in unison. If Tu Fei went into the mine alone, he might encounter danger. It could also provoke the dragon’s wrath, bringing disaster to everyone. "We must find him immediately." Gu Sheng said decisively. Then he turned to Old Li, "Old Li, you stay here with a few people to guard, I’ll go into the mine to see what’s going on." "Xiao Sheng, you can’t go down! It’s too dangerous." Old Li hurried to stop him, his face full of worry. "Old Li, Tu Fei is our brother, we can’t abandon him. I must go." Gu Sheng shook his head, his face resolute as he spoke. "This..." Although their interaction was short, Old Li understood Gu Sheng’s character. Once Gu Sheng decided on something, it was hard to change his mind. "Alright, but you must be careful." Old Li sighed helplessly. After speaking, Old Li found a few miners to guard by the mine entrance, while Gu Sheng went into the mine alone. Upon entering the mine, Gu Sheng was instantly shocked by the scene before him. There were corpses scattered all around. Some were already cold, while others were still twitching slightly. The air was filled with the stench of blood, making Gu Sheng feel a wave of nausea. "Phew..." Gu Sheng barely suppressed the turmoil in his stomach, otherwise, he would have thrown up! After calming his mind, Gu Sheng slightly stirred his divine power, trying to sense Tu Fei’s location. "Ssss..." Fragments of divine sense extended, searching for Tu Fei’s traces. Soon, Gu Sheng detected some energy fluctuations, originating from Tu Fei. Following the direction of the fluctuations, Gu Sheng found Tu Fei furiously digging the ore in front of him. "Tu Fei! What are you doing!" Gu Sheng stepped forward to question. Tu Fei heard Gu Sheng’s voice and was stunned. Then he turned around, panic evident in his eyes. But soon, his expression became ferocious, and he lunged forward with a palm strike. "Whoosh!" This strike was accompanied by the sound of cutting through the air, something ordinary people couldn’t muster! Gu Sheng froze, not expecting Tu Fei to possess divine power! Instantly, Gu Sheng reacted and dodged Tu Fei’s attack by stepping aside. "Tu Fei! Are you crazy?!" Gu Sheng shouted angrily. "Hmph!" Tu Fei sneered, "Gu Sheng, who do you think you are? You’re just a mining foreman, do you dare to meddle in my affairs?" Gu Sheng frowned, sensing that something seemed off about Tu Fei, as if some power was controlling his mind. "Tu Fei, listen to me, the dragon is still in the mine, what you’re doing will endanger everyone!" Gu Sheng tried to persuade Tu Fei. But Tu Fei seemed completely uninterested, his eyes filled with madness, "Gu Sheng, I advise you not to meddle in things!" After saying that, Tu Fei attacked Gu Sheng again. His palm carried furious power, clearly having lost his reason. Gu Sheng had no choice but to defend. If he didn’t subdue Tu Fei, he might do something even more dangerous. Thus, the two engaged in a life-and-death struggle within the mine. Because Gu Sheng’s divine power was only half unsealed, he couldn’t fully exert it. Tu Fei, however, seemed to aim for Gu Sheng’s life with every move. Luckily, Gu Sheng possessed the Ancient Sacred Body, his flexibility far beyond ordinary people. Several times, Gu Sheng narrowly escaped. If not, he might have been killed by Tu Fei right here! "Roar!!!" Just as their battle was at its peak, a roar suddenly echoed from the depths of the mine. The roar brimmed with murderous intent, shaking the entire mine. Gu Sheng was startled, realizing the dragon had been awakened by their fight. He had to subdue Tu Fei quickly, then figure out how to escape. "Tu Fei, stop!" Gu Sheng shouted. Tu Fei suddenly paused, and Gu Sheng took the opportunity to strike his chest with a palm. "Ah!" Tu Fei screamed, flying backward and crashing heavily to the ground. Gu Sheng quickly approached and sealed Tu Fei’s qi acupoint, preventing him from using divine power. "Tu Fei, what are you trying to do?" Gu Sheng coldly interrogated. "What I’m trying to do? You know better than I do!" Tu Fei retorted. "Hmm?" Gu Sheng was taken aback. From Tu Fei’s eyes, he seemed to see himself! "You... you’re also after the refined ore?" Gu Sheng stammered a bit as he asked. "That’s right, I’ve known your goal for a long time, I just didn’t say it." Tu Fei nodded. "Then your divine power... how did you obtain it?" Gu Sheng continued to ask. "Hehe... It’s simple, just use the Sealing Immortal Powder." Tu Fei said with a smile. Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng’s eyes lit up, "Sealing Immortal Powder? Can that thing undo the divine power seal?" "Of course it can, as long as it’s a seal, the Sealing Immortal Powder can work!" Tu Fei laughed as he spoke. Hearing this, Gu Sheng was moved. Then he quickly said to Tu Fei, "Tu Fei, can you give me some Sealing Immortal Powder?" "Hmph!" Tu Fei squinted his eyes, seemingly contemplating something. "Well? Say something, can you or not?" Gu Sheng was somewhat anxious. Tu Fei smiled and said, "It’s possible, but I need something valuable in return." Gu Sheng was stunned, he touched himself all over. Realizing he didn’t have anything valuable, except for a hairpin. "I don’t have anything valuable, just this hairpin, will it do?" It was something Gu Sheng had taken from the Shaking Light Saintess earlier. He’d been carrying it with him, not expecting it to come in handy now. Tu Fei was taken aback when he saw the hairpin. "Where did you get this hairpin?" Tu Fei asked with a surprised face. Gu Sheng casually replied, "A friend gave it to me." Tu Fei’s eyes flickered with a bright light, as if realizing something. "Hehe... What relationship do you have with the Shaking Light Saintess?" Tu Fei laughed, looking as if he were a gossiping old lady on the street. Gu Sheng was taken aback, not expecting Tu Fei to suddenly mention the Shaking Light Saintess. Immediately, Gu Sheng replied, "Just ordinary relations." "Ordinary relations? Who are you fooling? This thing is the hairpin of the Holy Land Saintess." Tu Fei clearly didn’t believe it, stating the origin of the hairpin outright. Then he smiled sinisterly, leaning closer to Gu Sheng, "I heard the Shaking Light Saintess recently fell in love, aren’t you her boyfriend?" Gu Sheng was startled by Tu Fei’s words and quickly denied, "How could that be, we’re just ordinary friends." Tu Fei looked at Gu Sheng’s expression, seemingly unconvinced by his explanation. But he didn’t continue pressing, and instead said with a smile, "Alright, I believe you, I’ll take this hairpin, and I’ll share some Sealing Immortal Powder with you." Gu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that although Tu Fei didn’t fully trust his explanation, at least he wouldn’t press further for now. "Can you unlock my qi acupoint now?" Tu Fei asked with a smile. Gu Sheng hesitated for a moment, wondering if Tu Fei might renege on their deal. Tu Fei seemed to read Gu Sheng’s thoughts, so he said directly, "We’re in the same boat now, we need to keep each other’s secrets, can’t we trust each other this much?"
