"Mobilize your immortal power and guide the elemental power to gather on the arrow. Only then can the arrow shot out have enough power."

Ganyu started doing as Gu Chen said.

She mobilized her immortal power, guided the elemental power to gather on the arrow, and shot it out with a 'pop'. The arrow turned into a stream of light and fell into the ruins of the collapsed house in the distance.

The arrow wrapped in elemental power pierced through the stone directly, with only the fletching left on the stone surface.

"Not bad, that's it!"

Gu Chen nodded and then said: "But what you need to practice now is your eyes and hands. Your eyes need to see clearly and accurately, and your hands need to be steady and fast."

"After you practice well, you will be able to shoot fast and accurately in the future, often killing the enemy with one arrow!"

"Mm-hmm!" Ganyu nodded repeatedly.

Approaching dusk.

Morax and Azhdaha rushed back.

Morax felt very ashamed after hearing that Guili Assembly had suffered heavy losses.

He frowned when he saw Gu Chen and said: "You... did you use some secret technique?"

"It's not a big deal, don't worry." Gu Chen waved his hand.

"Alright, then let's go discuss where to move." Morax nodded.

After discussion by the immortals, they decided to move south.

There was a natural harbor in the south suitable for building a city, and it could rely on a large mountain.

Although this mountain and harbor might become fatal factors when facing enemies, if you think about it carefully, as long as there are enemies, nowhere is safe.

Moreover, that natural harbor could facilitate human development.

"This is a bit too far. Guili Assembly has been washed away by the sea, and we have no food left in our hands. It's very difficult to move the whole family so far away." Marchosius spoke up.

"But if we don't move, there's no food here either." Cloud Retainer said.

"We can make a kind of portable food, as long as it supports us moving there. Since it's a natural harbor, relying on fishing for a living can also support us for a period of time." Gu Chen said.

Marchosius nodded: "I think so too. Then is it settled?"

"It's settled!" Morax nodded.

After the decision was made, the immortals led the commoners to prepare to cross mountains and rivers to their destination.

But there were too many people injured in this battle with Osial, so they had to rest in a place far away from Guili Assembly.

There wasn't much food, but they couldn't abandon the wounded.

Gu Chen decided to take a group of uninjured, strong young people to lay the foundation first.

"You are injured. What if you encounter an attack on the road?" Morax refused immediately.

"I'm even more worried if others go." Gu Chen shook his head.

Morax was helpless.

Gu Chen, Sister Guizhong, Azhdaha, Cloud Retainer, and Mountain Shaper True Monarch set off first with ten thousand people.

Morax, Marchosius, Moon Carver True Monarch, and Mountain Shaper True Monarch stayed here to guard the wounded.

With Azhdaha's massive true form clearing the way, Gu Chen and the others moved very smoothly.

The only problem was that because they might be attacked at any time, people couldn't ride on Azhdaha's back to save effort.

They walked for more than ten days without encountering anything unusual.

After all, the fierce reputation of Morax and Azhdaha had already spread, and some gods didn't dare to provoke them actively.

Ganyu followed by Gu Chen's side.

She found that her Master's aura didn't seem to have recovered to its previous state.

Thinking that Gu Chen had been seriously injured, Ganyu didn't think much of it.

Along the way, she practiced archery.

The nobility and elegance of the Qilin bloodline were engraved in her bones, but Ganyu still took the initiative to take up the bow and kill, providing some meat for this pioneering team.

"Ganyu's archery is getting better and better." Cloud Retainer praised.

"It's all because I taught her well." Gu Chen nodded.

"You guy." Cloud Retainer shook her head and laughed.

Under Gu Chen's teaching, Ganyu was indeed becoming stronger day by day.

Leaving aside Ganyu's talent, the rest was all Gu Chen's credit.

"Azhdaha's pressure is too great. Even from far away, he scares away all the little animals. Ganyu and I will go to a further place to find animals that can be hunted." Cloud Retainer said.

"Go ahead, be safe." Gu Chen nodded.

Sister Guizhong smiled: "Then I'll leave it to you."

"It's no big deal. This immortal will definitely bring back enough food for these ten thousand people to eat for two days!" Cloud Retainer said confidently.

"Then we'll wait for you."

Cloud Retainer took Ganyu and left the team.

While hunting, Cloud Retainer said: "Ganyu, you seem to have special feelings for your Master?"

"Huh?"

Ganyu was stunned, then shook her head repeatedly: "Auntie Cloud, what are you talking about?"

"Haha." Cloud Retainer laughed: "It's not just this immortal; others have this view, but they just didn't say it. Your little thoughts are too obvious."

"D-do I?"

Ganyu was a bit flustered.

"Unfortunately, he is your Master." Cloud Retainer sighed.

Ganyu tightened her grip on the bow.

Cloud Retainer sighed sadly: "You were raised by him since you were little. You are Master and disciple, but it's more like father and daughter, so... you should understand what this immortal is saying, right?"

"I..." Ganyu lowered her head and clenched her hands.

There's no blood relationship, is it really not possible?

Seeing Ganyu become very disappointed and frustrated, Cloud Retainer didn't say much more.

Boom!

The earth trembled.

A terrifying roar came from the distance.

"Oh no!"

Cloud Retainer was shocked: "Hurry back!"

Ganyu's heart tightened.

She knew the team had been attacked. The roar of Azhdaha came from the distance, and the battle was clearly very intense.

Master was seriously injured and hasn't recovered yet...

"Your strength is not enough, be careful yourself!" Cloud Retainer exhorted and flew away flapping her wings.

Ganyu didn't say a word, gripped her bow and arrow, and ran toward the direction the sound came from.

The distance of dozens of miles seemed so far away at this moment.

Ganyu climbed over mountains and ridges. She had even seen Azhdaha in the distance frantically charging at something, and saw the mountain collapse and dust flying.

"Master... won't have anything happen, definitely won't have anything happen!"

Ganyu didn't dare to stop for a moment.

Along the way, she didn't see any evil spirits or fierce beasts.

She sensed the aura of a god, and not just one!

Finally.

After Ganyu climbed over a mountain, she saw it.

A creature like an eagle, huge like a mountain, with wings spread, countless pitch-black feathers shooting out like steel knives, countless people died in its hands.

Mountain Shaper True Monarch's wings seemed broken, falling into a deep pit, dying.

Cloud Retainer also fell to the side.

Sister Guizhong turned into a stone statue, a lifelike statue sitting withered and weeping, a layer of yellow light surrounding her, like chains made of dust sand sealing her.

The authority of dust was shattering, the Dust Archon Sister Guizhong had fallen! ===== CHAPTER 270 =====

Sister Guizhong turned into a stone statue; the lifelike statue sat withered and weeping, a layer of yellow light surrounding her, as if chains made of dust and sand were

locking her away.

The power of dust was shattering; the Dust Queen Sister Guizhong had fallen!
