Gu Sheng was struck so hard that his blood surged and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of fresh blood. However, even then, he still had no intention of retreating to defend himself; raising his blade once again, he charged at Ni Chen.
Ni Chen's mind was already overwhelmed by intense pain, leaving him unable to react. Gu Sheng's blade cut across his neck directly, and his head lightly floated off into the air.
In exchange, Gu Sheng took two more punches, but using the opportunity, he continued to advance a short distance forward.
Gusts of wind rushed toward him—the giant birds were already closing in. Gu Sheng couldn't afford to check his injuries and hurriedly activated the Shadow Concealing Skill and the First-level Speed, quickly pulling away.
The giant birds had initially aimed to attack Gu Sheng, but once their target disappeared, their aggression naturally shifted to Kang Xiaofeng and Wu Xinyu.
