Chapter 1150: Chapter 1150: The Retreat is Cut Off

Through Lin Xi’s efforts, Su Hui finally managed to survive the crisis, but her complexion was very pale and her consciousness was unclear, which caused Lin Xi great heartache and resentment. She shouted at Gu Fan, "Don’t hold back, avenge Sister Su."

Roaring, Gu Fan, relying on Vajra Body Protection, withstood Mo Yun’s attacks. Even with unbearable pain, he clenched his teeth to remain steadfast, ramming his head into Mo Yun’s, causing her to see stars and feel dizzy.

It was Gu Fan’s turn to counterattack, punching and kicking without any technique but with fury, landing continuous blows on Mo Yun, beating her down.

Although Mo Yun was much stronger than Gu Fan, after such a long battle, her injuries had not yet had time to heal, and she was exhausted, so now all she could do was take the hits.

Knowing she couldn’t give Mo Yun a chance, Lin Xi summoned two bolts of lightning in quick succession to greet Mo Yun properly, striking her with severe injured and causing her to fall to the ground.

Gu Fan took out a wooden spike, walked over indifferently and looked down at Mo Yun, who was lying on the ground in a semi-comatose state. He didn’t hesitate, grabbed Mo Yun by the throat with one hand and aimed the wooden spike at her heart with the other.

"Yes, that’s right. Use this wooden spike to end the grievance between us," Mo Yun said with a wistful smile. "From the day you betrayed me, this outcome was destined, either I die by your hand, or you die by mine."

Gu Fan regarded Mo Yun, who was barely alive, with solemnity, feeling her heartbeat and breathing beginning to recover, knowing if he didn’t act now, there would be no more chances.

"Do it. Even if you spare me today, tomorrow I will still seek revenge against you. Our grievance can only end with the death of one of us," Mo Yun said feebly, but still managed to exert a sense of pressure, causing some trepidation and unease in Gu Fan.

Seeing Gu Fan hesitating, Lin Xi immediately urged him, "What are you waiting for? Didn’t you hear what Sister Su said? If you linger over past affections, she won’t appreciate it. As long as she lives, we will never have peace."

"Your girlfriend is right. As long as I live, you won’t have peaceful days, so kill me, hurry up and do it," Mo Yun said, regaining a bit of strength, her voice also much louder.

Gu Fan closed his eyes, thought hard for a moment, his expression hesitating as if he was struggling internally.

At this moment, Xue Lang fell from the sky, landing in an ugly and painful manner. Upon assessing the situation and seeing that Mo Yun was defeated and her life was in Gu Fan’s hands, Xue Lang panicked, "Hold on kid, you can’t kill her. Don’t you understand why she hates you so much?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Fan’s heart trembled, and a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes. Then he made a decision, released Mo Yun, handed her over to Xue Lang, and admonished, "Take her and get as far away from here as you can, quickly."

"Right, I got it!" Xue Lang, without looking back, ran with Mo Yun.

Gu Fan stood in place, sighing silently, seemingly troubled. Then he glanced at Lin Xi and Su Hui, and showed a hint of apology, "I’m sorry, I just couldn’t do it. Perhaps it’s my compassionate folly."

To this, Lin Xi smiled slightly, "It’s okay. Whatever decision you make, I’ll support you. Besides, if you had really killed Mo Yun, I might have felt very strange."

Su Hui nodded, "Yes, to think of the Gu Fan who valued loyalty and righteousness, it would be hard to imagine you could harden your heart to kill your own mentor. Don’t forget, back in ancient times, if it weren’t for Mo Yun, you probably would’ve had a difficult time surviving. And how much did Mo Yun look after you, treating you as the only comrade she could rely on. That kindness, you have not yet repaid. However, having betrayed her, if I were in her place, I would also hate you for a lifetime."

"Don’t talk like that, in the face of justice, personal favor isn’t worth mentioning. If she chooses to stand with the enemy, I have no choice but to oppose her," Gu Fan said, looking up with a long sigh, "I hope that sparing her in my soft-heartedness this time won’t make me regret this decision."

"Let’s not discuss that now, we need to get going quickly. If Xue Wang and Lord Xiong get here, I’m afraid we really won’t be able to leave," urged by Lin Xi, the three of them quickly set off toward the beach nearby.

A little while later, Gu Fan, Lin Xi, and Su Hui passed through the woods and arrived at the seaside, where they saw Irina and the others waiting anxiously.

Gu Fan’s parents, seeing their son was safe, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then Mei Fang took a good look at Gu Fan, and seeing that he was unharmed, she completely relaxed.

"How is it, has your boat arrived?" Gu Fan asked, noting the anxious look on Irina’s face, he had a premonition that things were not going well.

Irina shook her head, "We’ve called out several times, but there’s been no response. It seems like what you were worried about is happening."

"Then we must leave here immediately!" Gu Fan yelled, urging everyone to move quickly, or it would be too late.

Considering the current situation, Xue Wang and Lord Xiong had already learned that Gu Fan hadn’t been captured. With the two of them joining forces, it was likely that no one would be able to leave alive.

However, there were two things in their favor. First, if luck was on their side, Xue Wang and Lord Xiong had just left the mansion and would need some time to get here. Second, Xue Wang and Lord Xiong didn’t know Gu Fan’s precise location, which would take them even more time to find him.

But if Irina and their boat were discovered, and someone was captured, then Organization X could use this clue to deduce Gu Fan’s location at the seaside, saving Xue Wang and Lord Xiong time in their pursuit.

Meanwhile, out at sea, a boat riddled with bullet holes, and only two survivors from the Hunter’s Guild, who had been captured and brutally beaten, remained.

Just as Gu Fan feared, Organization X had sealed off all possible escape routes to ensure he couldn’t fly away. There were several boats patrolling on the sea, which had intercepted the Hunter’s Guild boat.

Organization X learned the predetermined rendezvous from the captives, immediately ordered their boat to the location, and also informed Xue Wang and Lord Xiong via walkie-talkie.

"Clever boy, trying to escape by sea. He even arranged a backup plan. But, unfortunately, we’ve anticipated this move," Xue Wang said proudly, convinced that Gu Fan was trapped and could not escape.

However, Lord Xiong was a bit puzzled, "The Hunter’s Guild is involved now, looks like they’re here to help Gu Fan. What does that mean? Did Gu Fan arrange with the Hunter’s Guild for assistance in case of any trouble?"

Xue Wang was dismissive, "With the boy’s abilities, it’s not surprising he’s colluding with the Hunter’s Guild."

Lord Xiong showed a worried expression, "But what if Gu Fan doesn’t know the Hunter’s Guild at all, and never expected them to show up? If there’s no relationship, then why would the Hunter’s Guild want to help Gu Fan? Is there another motive?"
