Chapter 229: A man's mouth is a lie

Gu Huaizhi felt regretful when he heard Xue Ruoxue say this.

He had only thought of putting all the blame on Lao Kui and Xue Ruoxue. After all, in everyone's eyes, he had always been a peaceful person, so it was understandable that he was deceived. He

automatically ignored the fact that he had a ferocious face at the altar and was determined to kill the emperor and everyone present.

He thought that as long as he played dumb and acted nice, he could get his life back.

Little did he know that in everyone's eyes, he was a despicable and shameless villain who had no responsibility. No matter what, he would not escape death.

As the saying goes, like dragons, like phoenixes, and mice's children can only dig holes. He must have inherited this bad habit from his biological parents.

Even though he knew he was not the emperor's biological son, Gu Huaizhi still didn't want to die like this.

Xue Ruoxue said she had a way to save his life, and he rekindled his hope.

His furious face was replaced with a fawning smile, and he changed the subject: "Ruoxue, you must be very uncomfortable in there, come, I will rescue you out!"

Gu Huaizhi's eyes were full of concern. He ignored the wounds on his hands and tore the net that trapped Xue Ruoxue with his bare hands, muttering to himself:

"Ruoxue, don't be afraid, I will definitely rescue you out."

Xue Ruoxue didn't understand the situation for a moment. Wasn't Gu Huaizhi angry with him and wanted to vent his anger on her? Why did he suddenly want to save her?

Xue Ruoxue's brain circuit was unable to react for a moment, and she scolded fiercely: "Don't be hypocritical. I remember clearly what you said in front of the dog emperor. You kept saying that I was a witch. Don't pretend to be a good person here!"

Gu Huaizhi also knew that he had gone too far before. If he wanted Xue Xue to believe him, he had to find a credible excuse.

He said, "Ruoxue, you misunderstood me. I naturally want to advance and retreat with you. However, if I confronted the emperor head-on and angered him, we would both be beheaded by now.

I pushed you out to take the blame because I wanted to use a roundabout tactic. As long as the emperor spares me, I can think of a way to save you. Have

you forgotten that when you were still Shen Qingyu, you were punished and exiled, and I knelt down in the Qinzheng Hall and fainted to plead for you."

As Gu Huaizhi spoke, he tore the net with his bare hands, and said, "Ruoxue, I know you are angry with me, and I am not... Thinking of my identity, I thought that no matter what, I was the emperor's eldest son. As long as I kept a low profile and cleared myself, I would be able to find a chance to save you.

Now, the emperor knows that I am not his son, and he will definitely not let me go. I can't escape, but you are different. You are the saint of the Demon Cult, and you have extraordinary abilities. As long as you are released from this net, you will be able to escape. "

Gu Huaizhi talked incessantly, his hands were never idle, but the net that looked ordinary could not be untied.

Lao Kui on the side was also confused. Did Gu Huaizhi really fall in love with this demon cult witch?

Seeing this, Lao Kui silently stepped forward to help. In his life, he only had this son, and he wanted to help him achieve his imperial career, but unfortunately, things did not go as he wished.

Since he likes this girl, I will lend him a hand!

Xue Ruoxue looked at the father and son busy in front of her in confusion, and the more she thought about it, the more confused she became.

Lao Kui saw that the net could not be untied, so he took out a knife from his waist.

Gu Huaizhi grabbed the knife and said, "Why didn't you take out the knife earlier? Ruoxue was trapped for so long!"

Lao Kui was stunned. Gu Huaizhi's ability to cross the river and dismantle the bridge was really inherited from him.

Gu Huaizhi took the knife and kept cutting the net rope, but he couldn't cut it.

Xue Ruoxue was somewhat moved, and said quietly: "Don't bother yourself. This net must have been cast by Su Xiaoxiao. I can't even break it open with my magic, so how can you open it!" Gu

Huaizhi was a little disappointed. If he didn't release Xue Ruoxue, how could he ask her to find a way to save his life.

Gu Huaizhi really didn't want to die. He said, "Ruoxue, think about it again. There must be another way. You are so powerful, you will definitely be able to get out, right!"

Xue Ruoxue was still angry about the previous incident. She said with a dark face, "Gu Huaizhi, put away your fake kindness. Do you think I will believe you? From the moment you betrayed me, whether I live or die has nothing to do with you!"

"Ruoxue, I definitely can't get out, but you are different. You have so many years of cultivation. By the way, can't you occupy other people's bodies? Otherwise, you use his body and your soul will get out first!" Gu Huaizhi pointed at Lao Kui and said.

Lao Kui looked at Gu Huaizhi with an unbelievable look on his face. If he wanted to take over, the soul of the original body would have nowhere to stay and there would only be a dead end. He didn't believe that Gu Huaizhi didn't know this.

Gu Huaizhi said as a matter of course: "Lao Kui, you have hurt us so badly. It is your blessing that you can save Ruoxue!"

As he said that, he grabbed Lao Kui and sent him in front of Xue Ruoxue.

Xue Ruoxue was stunned: "Isn't he your biological father? Moreover, if you want to take him away, the other party must be dying."

"That's easy!" Gu Huaizhi grabbed Lao Kui's neck with his backhand and said proudly: "I will pinch him to faint, and you take the opportunity to enter his body, and you will come out!"

Lao Kui stared at Gu Huaizhi with wide eyes, and pushed Gu Huaizhi away with all his strength, and questioned: "Huaizhi, I plan everything for you and accompany you for decades. Don't you have any feelings for me? Are you so impatient to see me die?"

Gu Huaizhi pounced on him again and grabbed Lao Kui's neck again: "Didn't you say that you loved my mother because of true love? You died to save me. My mother will be very happy to see you."

After Gu Huaizhi finished speaking, he exerted force on his hand, and Lao Kui fainted and died.

Xue Ruoxue stared at Gu Huaizhi in amazement. Lao Kui was the best person in the world to him, but he didn't expect Gu Huaizhi to attack him without hesitation.

Gu Huaizhi didn't pay any attention to Xue Ruoxue's expression and kept urging her, "Ruoxue, come out quickly!"

Xue Ruoxue stammered, "I haven't finished what I said just now. I can only enter the body of a dying person, but I'm in this net and can't cast spells, so even if you make him dying, I can't get out!"

Gu Huaizhi didn't even want his own father to save himself. Xue Ruoxue really didn't know whether to be happy or scared.

Upon hearing this, Gu Huaizhi's eyes flashed with disappointment and he threw the Lao Kui in his hand away: "How could this happen? Didn't you say there was a way to save my life? Since you can't get out, how can you save me?"

Only then did Xue Ruoxue understand why Gu Huaizhi suddenly wanted to save her. After all, he wanted to save herself.

A ruthless look flashed across Xue Ruoxue's eyes: "There is a way!"
