Chapter Seventy-Eight: Confrontation
The study of the ancient family.
Xiao Cangzhen looked at the entrance of the study that was slowly enlarging in front of him, his eyes were flat, it stands to reason that Gu Hongchu had never seen her, so Xiao Cangzhen was not worried about being recognized.
When Gu Yu saw Xiao Cangji's figure, a smile suddenly bloomed on his face, and his eyes also had brilliance, he subconsciously wanted to step over but was afraid that Gu Hongchu would be angry, so Gu Yu just glanced at Gu Hongchu cautiously, and then stopped his steps.
"Gu Family Master." Xiao Cangzhen bowed his hand slightly, and the moment he lowered his head, Xiao Cangzhen glanced at Gu Yu, and noticed the smell of blood in the air, Xiao Cangzhen sighed softly in his heart, or was ...... I'm implicated.
When Xiao Cangzhen walked into the study, Gu Hongchu's eyes kept on her. Sensing that there was no True Yuan fluctuation on Xiao Cangji's body, Gu Hongchu frowned, could it be that he was another person who couldn't cultivate?
"Who are you?" Gu Hongchu didn't plan to deal with Xiao Cangji, so he asked directly.
"Under the surname Xiao, I rushed to the door just to seek medical treatment." Xiao Cangzhen was neither humble nor arrogant, and was not moved by Gu Hongchu's momentum at all.
Xiao Cangzhen knew that at such a time, if she showed a little weakness or fear, Gu Hongchu would directly attack her. There are many ways to ask for news, and for a master like Gu Hongchu, it is not difficult to use the soul searching technique.
However, if it is not necessary, Xiao Cangzhen does not plan to expose his identity and true strength.
"Are you, from the Demon Clan?" Gu Hongchu noticed the Heavenly Fox Seal shining on Xiao Cangzhen's eyebrows, it turned out to be a member of the Demon Clan, no wonder he didn't sense the True Yuan.
"No matter who I am, I won't be any threat to the Gu family, will I?" Xiao Cangzhen didn't answer the rhetorical question, and smiled indifferently.
"Not necessarily." Gu Hongchu slowly approached Xiao Cangji.
Seeing this, Gu Yu subconsciously took a few steps forward and stopped Gu Hongchu.
Seeing Gu Yu's reaction, Gu Hongchu's face stiffened with a smile, and then he looked at Gu Yu coldly. Gu Yu trembled, and subconsciously lowered his head but did not let go.
Looking at the back in front of her, Xiao Cangzhen's expression moved slightly, and then she looked at Gu Hongchu, "If I really want to do something, doesn't the Gu family master have the confidence to subdue me as a weak woman?" ”
Hearing Xiao Cangji's words, Gu Hongchu paused and laughed, "I suddenly appreciate you a little, I don't know who your parents are?" ”
"Alone, with no elders." Xiao Cangzhen replied calmly.
Gu Hongchu laughed a few times, "It's been a long time since I've seen such a courageous woman, no wonder he was fascinated by you." He even knows the young master's residence, so let him take you to visit tomorrow. ”
"Thank you, Master Gu." Xiao Cangzhen smiled and nodded, "Then I won't disturb the Gu family master, and I will retire first." ”
After speaking, Xiao Cangzhen turned around and left, Gu Yu saw this, glanced at Gu Hongchu, and shouted at Xiao Cangji's back, "Miss Xiao, wait for me." Then Gu Yu hurriedly followed Xiao Cangji's footsteps.
On the way back to Maple Leaf Garden, Gu Yu looked at Xiao Cangzhen with admiration and said with a smile, "Miss Xiao, now you can live in the Gu family with peace of mind, you can live as long as you want." ”
"I'm just here for medical treatment." Xiao Cangzhen glanced at Gu Yu, "How is your injury?" ”
"What?" Gu Yu subconsciously spoke, and only after a moment did he realize that Xiao Cangzhen was asking him, but Gu Yu didn't ask Xiao Cangzhen much how he knew that he was injured, but just smiled indifferently, "I am his son, and my father is not going to kill me." ”
Hearing this, Xiao Cangzhen took out a bottle of Rejuvenation Pill from the storage ring, "You take this." ”
"This ......" Gu Yu hesitated and didn't reach out to pick it up, "I'm a mortal, you should keep these pill Xiao girls, I rarely have a chance to be injured." ”
Xiao Cangzhen didn't speak, and handed the pill forward, "Take it." ”
"I ......" Gu Yu still wanted to say something, but seeing Xiao Cangji's expression, he was already a little impatient, Gu Yu didn't shirk anymore, and obediently took the pill.
Seeing that Gu Yu had put away the pill, Xiao Cangzhen turned around and continued walking, and Gu Yu quietly followed Xiao Cangji, half a step behind.
Gu Yu looked at Xiao Cangji's side face, her eyes were soft but it was difficult to hide her worry, Miss Xiao looked like she was very sad, is it because of the woman in white today?
Maple Leaf Garden, Gu Yu sent Xiao Cangzhen to the door of Maple Leaf Garden and left, Xiao Cangzhen thought for a moment, the sky fox seal flickered slightly, and Xiao Cangzhen's figure gradually blurred.
Now that you have entered the Gu family, it is time to start doing business. Xiao Cangzhen hid her body and breath, in the original book, Xuanru was imprisoned in the dungeon of the ancient family, and died before Ye Yuli could find her.
……
Ye Yuli went to the direction of the City Lord's Mansion after separating from Xiao Cangji, as far as she was concerned, Big Brother Gu must be saved, as for Xiao Cangji......
As soon as she thought of Xiao Cangji, Ye Yuli felt a little tired, she couldn't see this person clearly. Sometimes that person is in front of her, but she feels like the whole Kyushu is separated between the two, but sometimes, she also has the illusion that that person is also in love with her.
After the heavenly ladder of the Fuyun Immortal Academy, Ye Yuli couldn't see through Xiao Cangzhen at all.
Just when Ye Yuli was secretly sad, a gentle voice came from behind her, "Miss Ye! ”
Ye Yuli, who heard the voice, stopped and looked back, and saw Mo Xingye, who was wearing an inky luxurious robe, looking at her with a smile. Then the next moment, Mo Xingye came to Ye Yuli's body.
"It's really you, I didn't expect to see you in Dengxian City, are you also here for the Immortal Cave Mansion?" Mo Xingye's tone was as gentle as ever, but if he listened carefully, he could notice that there was joy in his words that he didn't usually have.
Ye Yuli turned around indifferently and continued to move forward, "Immortal Cave Mansion? What is that? ”
"The sect got the news that there is an immortal cave mansion in Dengxian City, and I was ordered to come and explore the truth." Mo Xingye shook his head helplessly, "There have been no immortals in Kyushu for many years, and now that this kind of news is suddenly circulating, many forces will definitely come to find out." ”
"Indeed." Ye Yuli nodded, slightly absent-minded, it turned out that Xiao Cangzhen came to Dengxian City because of this? Heh, she still delusionally thought that Xiao Cangzhen was here for her......
Looking at Ye Yuli's appearance, Mo Xingye frowned worriedly, "What's wrong with you?" It doesn't look very good. ”
Ye Yuli shook his head, "It's okay." ”
Although Mo Xingye was still not worried about Ye Yuli, he didn't ask again, "By the way, since you didn't come here for the Immortal Cave Mansion, why did you come to Immortal City?" ”
"Ink Starry Night, this is my business." Ye Yuli glanced at Mo Xingye coldly, with a faint warning in his eyes.
"Ah Li......" Mo Xingye frowned, with a sadness in his eyes that could not be concealed, "It was my fault that I didn't say goodbye at that time, but...... Can't you really give me another chance? ”
Hearing this, Ye Yuli closed his eyes impatiently, gritted his teeth and spoke, "Mo Xingye, I'll give you a chance?" What opportunities are you given? Is there any special relationship between us that requires such ambiguous words? As far as I'm concerned, you're just a person I've saved, no different from the other creatures I've saved, and please don't think too highly of yourself, Young Master Mo! ”
Just as Ye Yuli and Mo Xingye were confronting, another dark red figure slowly approached Mo Xingye, "Senior brother." Then the man noticed Ye Yuli on the other side of the starry night, "Miss Ye, long time no see." ”
Ye Yuli looked at the man in dark red clothes in front of him, and was a little surprised, "Chu Yan? ”
"You know?" Mo Xingye's gaze wandered between the two, and his brow furrowed imperceptibly.
"Yes, she saved me." Chu Yan still didn't have any expression, but it was obvious that his tone was a little softer.
"I see." Mo Xingye's brows slowly relaxed, "It is rumored that the food in this Dengxian City Xiangxue Pavilion is full of color, aroma, and flavor, why don't we try it?" ”
"No, I have something to do, let's go first." Ye Yuli shook his head indifferently, and then turned to leave.
Looking at Ye Yuli's back, Mo Xingye turned his head slightly to Chu Yan and said, "Go and check where she landed in Dengxian City." ”
Chu Yan frowned, "Senior brother, isn't this not very good?" ”
"She's only in the early stages of foundation building, and I'm worried about her safety." Mo Xingye looked at Chu Yan and smiled gently, "You're worried too, aren't you?" ”
"Yes, I'll go now." Chu Yan nodded, and then left.
One last glance at the direction in which Ye Yuli left, Mo Xingye also raised his feet and turned to leave.
……
Gu Jia, in the dark passage, Xiao Cangji's footsteps were light, and he slowly walked to the depths of the passage. On either side of the passage were two rows of rotting cells, most of which were lying dying, barely human.
And Xiao Cangji's whereabouts did not attract anyone's attention, or rather, no one had the strength to notice that there was a stunning woman walking leisurely outside the cell.
Xiao Cangzhen occasionally glanced at some prison cells, but his mood did not fluctuate in the slightest, and Xiao Cangzhen did not care about the life and death of these irrelevant people. And she wouldn't meddle in these things at will.
At this moment, a faint voice caught Xiao Cangji's attention.
"I'm ...... Wronged ......"
It was a low, hoarse voice, and it was impossible to tell the age of the owner, but just listening to the voice, you could feel that this man seemed to be dying.
Although the tone was weak, the thought in it was unusually firm.
The ghost sent the gods to the ground, and Xiao Cangzhen went to the cell.
In this kind of dirty place, Xiao Cangzhen did not get off her feet, although it looked like she was standing on the ground, but in fact, there was still a certain distance between the soles of her feet and the ground.
Xiao Cangzhen looked at the owner of the voice, it was a yellow-faced and thin-skinned young man, who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, as thin as skin and bones, but those eyes were unusually bright.
The boy was covered with scars, whiplashes, knife wounds, soldering irons...... Messy hair, body that has not been washed for a long time, rotting wounds, fill the whole cell with a disgusting smell.
Surprisingly, when Xiao Cangzhen stepped into this cell, the young man desperately struggled to sit up, but he did not succeed.
"Who?" The boy spoke weakly, but his eyes burst with an unusually strong desire to survive.
Looking at the light in the young man's eyes, Xiao Cangzhen withdrew the invisibility spell and set an enchantment in the cell, and then she looked at the young man with some confusion, "How did you find mine?" ”
"You...... Is it a fairy? Xiao Cangji, who suddenly appeared, the young man spoke slowly.
"Huh?" Xiao Cangzhen was a little surprised, she had thought of many kinds of young people's answers, but she didn't expect this person to say such a sentence that was not related to the current situation.
"I said, I'...... It can't be so easy to die. After saying that, the young man actually pulled the corners of his mouth, because of the wound on his face, he would pull the wound when he smiled, but he still smirked intermittently.
