Chapter 107 His Majesty the Vermilion Bird (23)
Outside the hall, Gu Congxin knelt before a man in blue robes, living up to his name, his head bowed low, even more humble than when he was with Gu Yanjing.
"The Supreme God."
The man, referred to as the Supreme God, lowered his eyes, his gaze filled with compassion and mercy: "Gu Congxin, do you know how grave your sins have been?"
"I know, but, Lord God, I can't stop His Majesty! He's too strong, I can't stop him!" Gu Congxin cried, wanting to beg for mercy, but she didn't dare.
After all, this guy isn't single. If the one inside sees him, he'll be humanely destroyed, sob sob.
It's so hard for him.
"No, your mistake wasn't that you couldn't stop Gu Yanjing; your mistake was that you saved Gu Yanjing and let him live." And that caused such a huge change in the current situation.
If Gu Yanjing had committed suicide back then, Lu Lingjun would have been annihilated as well, and none of the subsequent events would have occurred.
Gu Congxin: "...I...I didn't mean to. So, God, is there any chance for me to make amends?"
The man smiled slightly: "Of course, as long as you continue to follow Gu Yanjing, you can make him... restrain himself a little."
The man paused, and the idea of completely restraining himself was simply too fantastical for Gu Yanjing.
Inside, Gu Yanjing and Gu Yuan's negotiations were still ongoing.
"So, what does the Heavenly Lord need me to do, and what can he give me?" Gu Yanjing straightened up from laughing so hard he was bent over, leaned on the table, and stared at Gu Yuan with his crimson eyes, his smile extremely eerie.
Since it's a transaction, there should be give and take, but Gu Yanjing lacks nothing. He's rather curious about what Gu Yuan can use to convince him.
Gu Yuan opened her palm to Gu Yanjing, revealing a beating heart inside.
“I can give you my heart and untie the bond between you and Lu Lingjun.”
Gu Yanjing rested his chin on his hand and suddenly sneered: "Your bargaining chip is indeed very tempting, but I'm afraid the Heavenly Lord has forgotten how you schemed against Lu Lingjun and against me back then."
He's always in a hurry.
As she spoke, she reached out to take the heart, but Gu Yuan got up and dodged her.
"Does Your Majesty the Vermilion Bird think this is enough?" Gu Yuan held his heart in his hand, his expression still calm, looking at Gu Yanjing without refuting his words.
He did indeed have the support of Lu Lingjun when he took action.
He did not deny it.
"Enough, just say it, what do you want?" Gu Yan stared at the heart in his hand, unusually restrained.
The conditions Gu Yuan offered were indeed impossible for him to refuse.
Gu Yuan said, "I just hope you can restrain yourself in each plane and stop letting the female lead kill the male lead directly."
"Very well, I grant your permission." It's just killing him indirectly, what's the big deal?
"Incidentally, try to follow some of the plot as much as possible, and complete the timeline of the different dimensions."
"That's fine too." It just requires following the storyline, it didn't say the storyline can't be changed.
"Finally, do not destroy the plane." Gu Yuan paused, "Even if the plane was destined to be destroyed, let it complete its own path."
"Okay, whatever you say." Gu Yanjing was unusually agreeable.
"His Majesty the Vermilion Bird agreed too readily, which makes me very worried." Gu Yuan's eyes showed hesitation.
Gu Yuan doesn't know too much about Gu Yanjing's character.
The entire Heavenly Realm knew about Gu Yanjing's terrible temper.
"What is there to worry about, Heavenly Lord? Heavenly Lord is still Heavenly Lord and has not deviated from the Heavenly Dao. Taking my life would be a piece of cake for him. Besides, didn't Heavenly Lord arrange for people to watch over me? If I'm not afraid, why should Heavenly Lord be afraid?" Gu Yan shrugged, but his eyes remained fixed on the heart in Gu Yuan's hand.
The greed in his eyes was undisguised.
