Chapter 1714: Chapter 1325: The Embrace of Changsheng, Enviable to All!
Not only that, even Shi Wujue seems to know all those mysterious things like it’s no big deal!
Gu Changsheng really wanted to ask Shi Wujue, is there anything in this world he doesn’t know? Is he a walking encyclopedia or something?
Hearing Gu Changsheng’s words, Shi Wujue raised an eyebrow, his weak face still full of proud expression, "Of course! I, the City Lord, am full of knowledge, much better than that Zhou who only knows how to fight!"
Gu Changsheng heard this and immediately pouted!
At this moment, she didn’t even bother to argue with Shi Wujue about this issue!
Because it’s simply unsolvable!
Turning her head, she glanced at her own evildoer, seeing him nonchalant as well, Gu Changsheng was instantly relieved!
However, she was a bit indignant inside, what does it mean that her evildoer only knows how to fight?
He knows a lot, okay?
For example, climbing into bed?
"Cough!" She lowered her head and gave a fake cough, immediately pulling back those thoughts that shouldn’t arise at this time, supported herself with both hands, hurriedly got up from the ground, dusted off her clothes, then bent down to pick up Yu Lianyi, "Let’s go! There’s nothing here except danger! I used witchcraft to ice-seal Yu Lianyi to temporarily save her life. To truly rescue her, we need to go back where the Dark Night Army stores have the herbs I need to save her."
Even though they had spent quite a while in Valley of Forgetfulness, consuming a lot of inner strength, for someone like Gu Changsheng, a fierce woman, carrying Yu Lianyi was still as easy as pie!
Gu Changsheng didn’t mind, but Zhou Mu found it a bit hard to watch!
Seeing his little woman carrying another woman along the way, it was a bit discomforting to him, so, looking like a Divine Residence, he frowned slightly, and tried to extend his hand towards Gu Changsheng, "Let me do it!"
Holding Yu Lianyi and having just found a comfortable position for both the carrier and the carried, Gu Changsheng heard Zhou Mu’s words and immediately tilted her head, blinking at him, "You do it? Do what?"
"Hold her!" Zhou Mu frowned again.
Gu Changsheng looked down at Yu Lianyi in her arms, her mouth twitched, "Darn it, right in front of me, you want to hold another woman? Dream on! You won’t get such a chance!"
Zhou Mu heard this and suddenly fell silent!
"Hehe..." Shi Wujue watched Zhou Mu rendered speechless, chuckled softly, but his face hidden beneath long snow-white hair was full of loneliness...
Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu got along naturally, but in his eyes, it was undoubtedly torturous!
These affectionately intimate words, she would unconsciously speak them... She had clearly gotten used to Zhou Mu’s presence...
Habit...
Sometimes, it’s a very frightening thing!
Because it can unconsciously evolve into something natural, logically controlling a person’s actions and words...
"Shall I, the City Lord, do it?" But soon, Shi Wujue collected himself, he didn’t want Gu Changsheng to sense his feelings or feel awkward about them, so he reached out his hands, raised an eyebrow, "Yu Lianyi doesn’t look bad, this opportunity to enjoy her presence should rather go to me the City Lord!"
Gu Changsheng heard these words, her mouth twitched again, couldn’t help but say, "You want a pregnant woman too? You really are indiscriminate, eating anything without holding back!"
Shi Wujue’s world-famous face instantly darkened!
"You’re almost unable to stand still, don’t think about helping me! Take care of yourself instead!" Gu Changsheng wasn’t oblivious to these two men’s good intentions, so she advised Shi Wujue, "Once we’re back, I’ll check your pulse. Looking at you now, frail like a weak willow, seeming like you’ll fall with the slightest breeze, it’s honestly worrying!"
Shi Wujue’s darkened face eased up a bit!
He thought, surely he wouldn’t lose out to Yu Lianyi!
Still, at this very moment, he was a bit envious of Yu Lianyi who could be held in Gu Changsheng’s arms like this...
"Let’s go! None of you can help with holding her, because along the way, I need to occasionally infuse her with ice-sealed witch power!" Did they really think she wanted to be that brave warrior? She wasn’t a comrade, wouldn’t consider holding a woman happiness, this was merely out of necessity!
It must be said, a woman holding another woman does present quite a visual impact!
At least, when that woman is Gu Changsheng, both Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue felt a bit jealous!
However, hearing Gu Changsheng’s final explanation, neither could say anything further!
Gu Changsheng, holding Yu Lianyi, was the first to step out from behind the rocks, followed closely by Zhou Mu, and Dantai Ling, who was even more inseparable...
Standing behind the rocks, Shi Wujue looked at Gu Changsheng holding Yu Lianyi, gazed at her back, and wore a bitter smile on his stunning face, slowly saying, "Well, I’ve learned something now. Sometimes, being heartbroken is actually a good thing..."
At least, it lets her embrace like this!
Supporting Shi Wujue was Duo Shu, who immediately understood the unspoken meaning behind his master’s words. Anxiety surfaced on the face hidden beneath his black clothes, and he hurriedly whispered, "Hall Master! You shouldn’t think this way; your body can’t withstand such turmoil!"
It’s really maddening!
He’s starting to doubt whether his master truly, as he said, felt compelled to protect her only because Gu Changsheng’s image appeared on the bright moon. Why does he always feel like his master is deeply rooted in affection, and the image on the moon is nothing but an excuse?
This matter, once he returns, he definitely needs to find a way to get to the bottom of it!
After all, anomalies with the bright moon are a top priority for the Sandy Sea Wolf Tribe. Not knowing is one thing, but knowing means even if his master wants to gloss over it, he cannot. The He Clan must investigate all matters concerning the moon because it relates to their survival!
Shi Wujue sighed upon hearing Duo Shu’s words and softly said, "I’m just saying, my body knows itself well, let’s go..."
"It’s good that the Hall Master understands! Forgive me for speaking out of turn, but I must say, the Hall Master should relinquish thoughts of Gu Changsheng. You and her are fundamentally different paths; once your identity becomes known to the world, you inevitably will face each other in battle. Why go through such trouble?" Duo Shu spoke with sincerity, setting aside personal grudges in his capacity as a confidant who grew up with Shi Wujue.
"Duo Shu, have you ever loved someone?" Shi Wujue slowly took steps, his movements somewhat sluggish, and with a tone of disappointment, gazed at Gu Changsheng’s back.
"No!" Duo Shu’s reply was crisp and straightforward, "My mission is to protect the Hall Master. The Hall Master and the Ancient Country are everything to Duo Shu!"
"..." Feeling choked by Duo Shu’s reply, Shi Wujue’s face darkened, and he spoke in a deep voice, "Then don’t speak! Indeed, you’re only a qualified subject, not a Flower Solving Woman. I should talk to the ghost instead!"
Suddenly, he missed Shi Wei!
A ghost, unseen by others, who even if aware of his feelings, absolutely wouldn’t speak of them...
Duo Shu heard this and naturally understood which ghost Shi Wujue meant, immediately furrowing his brows and speaking, "Hall Master, what’s the point of talking with Shi Wei if she’s sentimental? What I said is the genuine heartfelt truth..."
"Shut up! I don’t want to talk to you!" Shi Wujue impatiently interrupted Duo Shu’s unfinished words.
Facing Gu Changsheng in battle...
That is the scene he, in this life, most dreads to see...
Just the thought makes his heart feel as if it’s being sliced by a knife, causing him almost to suffocate...
"Hall Master, honest words are hard to hear..."
"But you’ve secretly done dishonorable things as well..."
"Hall Master, my heart is genuinely sincere..."
"The Sandy Sea Wolf Tribe’s heart is clearly black, not sincere at all..."
"..."
Shi Wujue and Duo Shu kept a certain distance behind, their whispered conversations naturally wouldn’t reach the ears of those in front. Since they dared to speak, they had their ways to block the sound, even someone as fierce as Gu Changsheng couldn’t eavesdrop...
Meanwhile, Gu Changsheng wasn’t planning to listen to their conversation because she stopped moving while embracing Yu Lianyi, her gaze captivated by the few remaining members of the Hidden World Clan...
How should one put it, heaven does not disappoint the one who tries?
Seeing the ecstatic faces of those from the Hidden World Clan, Gu Changsheng could imagine they certainly found what they had been desperately looking for, the Geomancy Map Fragments...
She slightly shook her arm holding Yu Lianyi, hearing the clash of metal from her sleeve pocket, Gu Changsheng frowned. She hadn’t had the chance to confirm whether that pitch-black key was the one she was seeking, and could only wait to check with Borjigin Nian later...
Gazing in the direction of the members of the Hidden World Clan, Gu Changsheng shook her head, pursed her lips, and said, "Well then, that one named Gadatu is probably in trouble!"
The members of the Hidden World Clan found the Geomancy Map, overjoyed, while Gadatu, instead of leaving, kept watching wide-eyed...
Isn’t this asking for trouble?
Even if Gadatu doesn’t know what the Geomancy Map Fragments are, just looking at the reaction of the Hidden World Clan members, one can tell it’s not an ordinary item. So, after Gadatu returns as the Defensive General of Yanmen Pass, how could he possibly let it rest?
The members of the Hidden World Clan, clearly not all fools, naturally anticipate this matter and will undoubtedly make some moves...
