Come to think of it.
This was the second time Gu Zheng had been ambushed by a State Commander.
The last one was Jin Pang, the Commander of the Guangzhou Demon Slayer Bureau.
This time, it was Ji Tianping, the Commander of the Fengzhou Demon Slayer Bureau.
The former had acted on the orders of the Divine Brave King of Yue Country and Yong Xingzhou, while also seeking revenge for Luo Cheng.
The latter coveted his Divine Weapon Fragment!
Ji Tianping had undoubtedly left spies behind at the Qixia Valley passage.
As soon as Gu Zheng appeared in Qixia Valley and set foot in the passage, news of his whereabouts was relayed to Ji Tianping.
That was why Ji Tianping had suddenly appeared in the Demon Realm to assassinate Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng hadn't been able to break free from the power of the Imprisonment Space earlier.
He had to use the Equipment Effect, Electric Light Universe, to slip into the void and narrowly escape.
