Chapter 275 Will You Still Get Married?

"But I heard from Master that you didn't have to do this," Gigi continued. "She said that this matter had nothing to do with you from the beginning, and it only became involved later. She said that with your abilities, escaping from here and running away wouldn't be a problem at all."

Xiao Yu pursed his lips and said, "You kid...well, it's for your senior sister."

After saying that, he lowered his head and smiled, as if he was a little embarrassed.

Jiji hurried over and said, "Brother Xiao, did you have a fight before? Why can't you reconcile after so long?"

He was really puzzled. They had gone through so many ups and downs, and the chickens had eaten all the rice, and the dogs had licked all the noodles...but they were still in a cold war.

How great could the hatred be in the past?

"It wasn't a quarrel." Xiao Yu said slowly, "I bullied her, and she helped me despite past grudges... Anyway, I owe her too much, so I'll accept her ignoring me."

Gigi didn’t know what to say. The adult world was so hard to understand.

"Is it possible for you to get married in the future?" he asked confusedly.

Xiao Yu did not answer this question, but kept blinking and raising his eyebrows at him.

Jiji's heart suddenly skipped a beat and he immediately turned around to find his senior sister standing behind him with a sneer on her face.

"Why are you asking such nonsense questions so late at night?" Xu Chuchu grabbed him and said, "Go back to your room. If you don't get up tomorrow morning, I'll spank you!"

"I'm going!" Gigi quickly broke free and ran back to her room.

Xiao Yu felt a little guilty when she saw her: "You, why did you come out too?"

"I heard you talking." Xu Chuchu blushed after she finished speaking. "Not the one behind, but the one in front... Well, thank you for teaching him swordsmanship... and for helping me explain. I really ignored his problem."

"Jiji is a smart kid, he understands things quickly, but he lacks a bit of courage," Xiao Yu said. "I hope tomorrow's battle will help him come to his senses."

"Yeah..." Xu Chuchu sighed, "I hope we can all survive tomorrow's battle."

Xu Chuchu had encountered many dangers in his life, both in modern times and in ancient times, but none of them were as frequent and insecure as during this period. He often didn't know whether he could survive tomorrow or the next moment.

It seemed that breathing at this moment was a gift from God to her.

Sometimes she wondered if she was also the person mentioned in the prophecy, who came to ancient times and met Xiao Yu just to stop all this, whether she succeeded or failed.

"Whether you live or die, I will be with you." Xiao Yu said in her ear.

This is why Xu Chuchu feels more relaxed with Xiao Yu.

He would not say things like "Don't go, I'll go for you" or "I'll take you away and let's not worry about these things anymore."

He knew that she would never give up and would never hide behind him. Instead of saying those empty words that required arguments, it would be better to stand firmly by her side.

"Thank you." Xu Chuchu said, "You should go back and rest for a while. You've been tired for so many days."

"What about you?" Xiao Yu asked.

"I want to sit here for a while and look at the stars." Xu Chuchu looked up.

Astrology is really something that is difficult to understand. Why can the Shen family see so much from the stars?

"Then you take care of yourselves and I'll sleep here, okay?" Xiao Yu asked.

"...How are you sleeping here? Lying on the ground?" At this moment, they were both sitting on a bench without a backrest.

Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes slyly, slowly moved to Xu Chuchu's side, and gently rested his head on her shoulder.

"Sleeping like this... won't affect your stargazing, right?" he asked in a mean way.

Xu Chuchu glanced at him unhappily: "Aren't you tired of doing this?"

Xiao Yu was much taller than Xu Chuchu, and his upper body was naturally longer than hers, so when he leaned against her, his whole body was twisted.

"Not tired." Xiao Yu heard her tone was okay, so he hugged her from behind and put the weight of his whole body on her.

"Is this okay?" He leaned close to Xu Chuchu's ear.

"No matter how I ask, it won't work." Xu Chuchu said angrily.

"Then I won't ask anymore." Xiao Yu changed to a more comfortable position, leaned on her and squinted his eyes happily.

Seeing that she didn't struggle, he felt relieved and fell asleep quickly because of exhaustion.

Xu Chuchu originally wanted to hug him and then push him away, but she didn't expect that this guy would fall asleep so quickly, so she gave up.

Xiao Yu was a very articulate person, but he never told Xu Chuchu about his hard work, how much he had walked, how many people he had met, and how much effort he had put into it...

He only ever told her the result, in one word, success.

Xu Chuchu looked at the changing starry sky above her head again, and slowly fell asleep.

When she woke up the next morning, she was lying on a soft couch that had been moved out of the house, covered with someone's coat.

This guy... Fortunately she woke up early, otherwise if others saw them, they would think they did something last night.

She cheered herself up and soon realized that the situation was unusual.

No strange phenomena appeared in the sky yet, but the spiritual power in the surroundings was obviously stronger, sometimes strong and sometimes weak, but the strong parts were more abundant than Fox Mountain.

But this is not Fox Mountain, it is a bustling city, which is obviously abnormal!

"Let's get ready to go." She quickly gathered everyone together, disguised herself as an ordinary person, and sneaked into the city.

According to the plan, the prince's men would quietly take over the Xuanwu Gate at noon, let Xu Chuchu and his party in, and then send soldiers disguised as palace maids and guards to slowly approach.

In this operation, the prince's task was to ensure that they were not obstructed by the emperor's personal guards.

The later the emperor discovers them, the greater their chances of winning.

In fact, this is also an extremely risky decision for the prince. It is equivalent to completely breaking off relations with the emperor, and he can only pin all his hopes on Xu Chuchu and the others.

If they were defeated, he would not be able to escape the emperor's clutches.

It shouldn't be easy for Xiao Yu to convince him.

…

With the help of the prince, the group quietly approached the Dog Emperor's palace, but did not feel much spiritual fluctuation. They tentatively went in to take a few looks and found that there was no one inside, not even palace maids or guards.

"He's moved?" the master asked worriedly. "That's terrible! If there's a shielding formation protecting him, we won't be able to find him for a while."

"No." Xiao Yu and Xu Chuchu said in unison.

If the emperor wanted to move somewhere else... they thought of a place at the same time.

The energy pool in the palace.

Everyone moved towards the energy pool. Xiao Yu folded a paper crane, wrote the situation inside, and gave it to the prince, asking him to deploy troops accordingly.

However, before they got too close, they felt a huge energy fluctuation ahead.

A familiar ball of energy floated in the air, its pure power emitting a dazzling glow.

And below it is another tragic, bloody and cruel scene.
