The 216th Hidden Sect Boss's Little Assistant (58)
"Should we go directly to see His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor?" Lu Lingjun picked up Gu Yanjing and rubbed his head.
"No, let's just watch from the sidelines first." He was actually quite afraid that his older brother would beat him up directly.
After all, considering how easily Gu Yanci could be blown over by the wind, he really didn't dare to fight back and could only be beaten.
It hurts quite a bit.
“Okay, come on, I’ll carry you. I’ll go find you a cloak; it’s quite cold in Antarctica.” Lu Lingjun thought for a moment, put Gu Yanjing down, and then carried her on his back again.
"No need, I'm not afraid of the cold." Gu Yanjing snuggled against Lu Lingjun's back, his nose filled with the scent of the phoenix.
"I'm afraid you'll be cold, be good." Lu Lingjun didn't agree, and carried Gu Yanjing directly into the spatial magic treasure. He found a fiery red fox cloak inside and put it on Gu Yanjing.
"Is it warm?" Lu Lingjun asked the boy on his back.
Shao* was a bird, and his bones were frighteningly light. Lu Lingjun carried him as if he were carrying a feather, with almost no weight.
"Mmm." The young girl's face was nestled in the crook of his neck, as if she was already half asleep. She responded softly and then didn't say anything more.
"Did you dream again? Was I in your dream?" Lu Lingjun couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this, and turned his head to rub against the young man's cheek.
If Gu Yan were awake, she would definitely tell Lu Lingjun that there was such a thing.
Gu Yanjing never told Lu Lingjun that when Lu Lingjun went to the mortal realm to undergo reincarnation and tribulation, Gu Yanjing secretly went to see him.
That was just one of Lu Lingjun's thousands of reincarnations, and he probably didn't even remember it himself.
That time, Lu Lingjun was a scholar, and when Gu Yanjing found him, he was covered in blood.
He had just killed a demon that had been eyeing him for a long time outside the scholar's courtyard.
He landed in the courtyard, straight down in front of Lu Lingjun, looking utterly pathetic.
That little devil tricked him just now.
"Are you here to eat me too?" Lu Lingjun looked at Gu Yanjing who appeared in front of him without any panic. Instead, he calmly closed the book in his hand and tucked it into his sleeve.
Gu Yan opened his mouth in shock, a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat, unable to say anything. Finally, his head lolled to the side, and he fainted.
The demonic aura seeped into Gu Yanjing's bloodline, gradually awakening the power that Gu Yanci had suppressed within him.
When Gu Yan woke up again, he was surprised to see Lu Lingjun holding a bowl by the bedside. He still had the same appearance as when he was in the Heavenly Realm, but compared to when he was a prince, he had lost the noble and dignified demeanor of the Phoenix Clan Crown Prince. Instead, he had gained a scholarly air and was exceptionally refined.
Looking back now, Gu Yanjing felt that the scholar from that life had a profound influence on Lu Lingjun, and he could often see the scholar's shadow in Lu Lingjun.
"You're awake. Here, have some water." When Lu Lingjun saw that Gu Yan had woken up, his tightly furrowed brows immediately relaxed, as if he had been relieved. He placed the bowl on the table and left immediately.
"Wait a minute, aren't you afraid of me?" Gu Yanjing was in good physical condition and sat up immediately. He wiped the dried blood off his face, making his hands ache from the roughness.
"There's nothing to be afraid of. I'm used to seeing so many * (likely referring to a type of person or thing)." Lu Lingjun had her back to Gu Yanjing, her ears turning red, and she didn't dare to turn around and look at Gu Yanjing.
"Why aren't you looking at me?" Gu Yanjing gulped down the water on the table, almost cutting his lip on the chipped bowl.
When has the noble Vermilion Bird Prince of the Heavenly Realm ever lived such a life?
But having come to the human world on his own, he has endured all kinds of hardships.
