"You...you're willing to return the King of Ten Thousand Gu to us?"
Tian Ying found it hard to understand his words. How many people wanted the King of Ten Thousand Gu? Did he even know?
"Otherwise, why don't you let it lay eggs with me? If you know Gu magic, I'll teach it to you, and then it's up to you what you do with it. Anyway, that way I'll have fulfilled the promise Her Highness made to you during the negotiations. But if you don't want it, don't come looking for me again later. I have a bad temper, and if you ask me for it again, I might kill you."
Wen Qiyu stared at her while turning the meat she was roasting over the fire, her tone slow but unquestionable.
"Well... I'll keep it for now, and discuss it with the person in charge in Miao territory after this matter is resolved."
Seeing that Wen Qiyu didn't seem to be lying, Tian Ying obediently nodded. The King of Ten Thousand Gu was indeed very important. As a woman from Miao territory, even if she wasn't a saintess, she had a responsibility to protect her.
"Okay, wait until I finish eating before you start!"
Seeing that she had received a positive answer, Wen Qiyu didn't say anything more and started eating the meat.
Meanwhile, after erecting a tombstone for Zhu Yanniang, Cen Xi and the others left the White Building, exhausted, and headed out of Bagua Mountain.
Wen Qiyu had just finished eating when the others saw him.
Wen Qiyu also spotted the three figures and shouted:
"You all came out too? Zhu Yanniang is really dead? Didn't you try to save her?"
"Her heart and lungs are broken, there's no way to save her, how could you still eat her?"
Seeing that Cen Xi and Jun Jianchou had not yet recovered from the death of Zhu Yanniang, Shen Jinchen replied on their behalf.
"You woman who's courting death, you deserve it! There's still meat here, do you want some?"
Wen Qiyu snorted and then smiled as she looked at Shen Jinchen, waiting for his reaction.
"Cen Xi..."
Shen Jinchen thought that they really hadn't had anything to eat all day, so it wouldn't hurt to go down and get something to eat. So he decided to ask Cen Xi.
But before he could even open his mouth, Cen Xi interrupted him:
"I have no appetite. There's a group of people fighting outside. They must be the people you arranged. I'll go help."
Cen Xi was finding it difficult to move on from Zhu Yanniang's death, so after saying those words, she flew off to the outside of Bagua Mountain.
"Jun Jianchou..."
As soon as Shen Jinchen called out the name, Jun Jianchou only said one sentence:
"I'll go help too!"
Then, like a cold, sharp sword, it drifted into the distance.
Shen Jinchen chuckled silently and said to Wen Qiyu below:
"Give me two skewers, and after I finish eating them, I'll take care of your worries."
"Okay! Here you go! Remember to hurry."
Wen Qiyu grabbed the roasted pork she had just finished grilling and threw it upwards.
Shen Jinchen accepted the gift cleanly and promptly, then thanked him.
He then vanished in a flash and chased after the person.
Those two impulsive guys went to kill people on empty stomachs; they probably won't last long. He needs to hurry and step in to save the day.
Upon arriving at the battlefield, the two sides fought fiercely, but in terms of numbers, Yan Shengxiao's group had the upper hand.
Cen Xi and Jun Jianchou entered without saying a word, and began wildly slashing with their swords.
Both of them were venting their emotions, and Cen Xi's ears were still ringing with Zhu Yanniang's last words to her.
As she killed, she couldn't help but sneer. That woman was really stupid. Wouldn't it have been better to live a carefree life like she used to? Why did she have to fall in love with a man?
Thinking back to the jokes they made when they were dating, how she kept pressuring him to join the Su Nu Sect, and when he couldn't take it anymore, he gave her a challenge: to defeat Jun Jianchou, and she agreed. Was that joke a bit too much, leading her to take it seriously later?
Both were venting their emotions, but Cen Xi just stared blankly, while Jun Jianchou remained silent, his face expressionless, as silent as an ice blade constantly wielding on the battlefield.
Those assassins who encountered him had no time to react before he chopped off their heads. He moved through them as if playing a game of slicing a watermelon, leaving no survivors in his wake.
The blood of others and his own stained his black clothes a dark red, making him look both alluring and terrifying.
Perhaps he never imagined that one day a woman would be willing to die for him, and that he would owe that woman a life.
Some people used to say that love is like a drug addiction, something you can't quit no matter what you do.
He didn't believe it at the time, but he understood the meaning of those words only after he realized he had fallen in love with Cen Xi.
But why is there still such a foolish woman who falls for him, and he can't even reciprocate her feelings?
So he not only got himself addicted to drugs, but he also damnably harmed others.
Ha! That's fucking ridiculous!
...
The presence of these two killing gods instantly relieved some of the pressure on Lu Moxiu and Chu Mian, who had joined the battle earlier.
They seemed to be fighting more skillfully, and the disparity between the two sides was one to two. Shen Jinchen's men were not to be underestimated either, so although they were at a disadvantage so far, they were not invincible.
After Shen Jinchen entered the battle, he kept looking for Feng Qin and You He, but he couldn't find a single one of them.
Seeing that Jun Jianchou and Cen Xi were both bloodthirsty, he feared for their safety and went directly to find the leader of Yan Shengxiao's group. With a single strike of Flying Dragon in the Sky, the leader was instantly beheaded. Afterwards, the black-clad assassins began to hesitate.
How could Shen Jinchen let them go? In order to end the battle as soon as possible, Feilong Zaitian used it again and again. In no time, the more than 10,000 people around him were all shattered into dust.
At the moment the sun rose, outside Bagua Mountain, corpses lay strewn everywhere and blood flowed like rivers.
After Cen Xi and Jun Jianchou finished off the last person, they were exhausted and finally collapsed.
When Shen Jinchen picked up Cen Xi, he felt that she was torturing herself, and Jun Jianchou was no less so.
Suddenly, the smell of jealousy started to rise again. They really were two people of strong character, handling things in the same way.
It's really enviable.
"Guards! Take the Great General away, and then go find your master."
Cen Xi had many external injuries. After saying this, Shen Jinchen leaped away and left Bagua Mountain.
He had arranged accommodations at the foot of the mountain before he came, so he could take Cen Xi to get treatment for her injuries.
"We're here! We're here! Someone, if you don't save us, we'll be corpses!"
Feng Qin had clearly heard their young master's last words. Thankfully, they had been taking medicine to strengthen their bodies and nourish their blood; otherwise, they would have bled to death long ago. Thankfully, their young master returned in time; otherwise, he and Youhe might have truly perished.
Fengqin shouted weakly several times, but no one responded. She could only signal with her eyes to the two guys next to her to shout as well.
He was used to giving advice, but he just couldn't bring himself to shout at people. He opened his mouth several times, but couldn't get the words out.
Fengqin could only sigh and complain:
"You! Are you even a man?"
