Gradually, Mo Chen's tightly clenched fists loosened in frustration.
Cheng Wu sneered at this, his disdain evident in his voice, "As expected, trash is trash!"
After saying that, Chengwu turned around and prepared to leave.
Seeing that Cheng Wu was about to leave, Mo Chen became anxious. He had finally waited for someone to appear, but unexpectedly, he couldn't ask for help.
Without anyone to guide them, they didn't know how long they would wander aimlessly, or whether they would encounter any danger.
Mo Chen gritted his teeth and decided to abandon his pride. Just as Mo Chen was about to kneel down and beg, Gu Liyan patted him on the shoulder from behind.
Mo Chen was slightly taken aback and looked up at Gu Liyan. Gu Liyan narrowed her eyes, a purple light shimmering within them, and her voice suddenly became sweet and delicate:
"Brother, since this older brother isn't willing to help, let's just leave it at that. He probably has his own things to do. Let's find our way back ourselves!"
Mo Chen's lips twitched involuntarily, his legs went weak, his face stiffened and he turned away, his blank gaze fixed on Gu Liyan. That delicate voice was clearly a woman's voice!
What, how could Gu Liyan suddenly—
So flamboyant now?!
Upon hearing this voice, Cheng Wu's heart melted. He immediately turned around with astonishing speed, even stirring up the surrounding wind. He stared at Gu Liyan in disbelief, his eyes fixed intently on her.
With her arched eyebrows, gentle smile, fair skin, and stunning beauty, she was absolutely gorgeous! Her spotless white robes added to her ethereal charm!
If she weren't dressed as a man, she would definitely be a stunning beauty!
Cheng Wu's eyes lit up, and he asked nervously, "This...this young man is clearly a girl, so why is he dressed as a man?"
Gu Liyan smiled slightly, revealing a fox-like smile. "My daughter Mo Xue, this is my brother Mo Ji. I had no choice but to deceive you, my elder brother."
Cheng Wu chuckled lewdly and waved his hand, saying, "It's alright, it's alright. You're so beautiful, but you can't reveal that you're a woman, otherwise someone with ulterior motives will have their eyes on you!"
Mo Chen stared at Gu Liyan with a dark expression, inwardly roaring, "That damned fox is definitely doing this on purpose! What Mo Ji? He's clearly saying I'm being slow!"
Gu Liyan said shyly, "That's right, Brother Moji said the same thing."
After saying that, with a melancholy expression and a pitiful look, she continued:
“Our family originally lived in seclusion in the mountains, not wanting to get involved in worldly affairs, but we were attacked by a group of people, which led to the destruction of our family. Fortunately, my brother and I survived, but the leader of the other side took a fancy to my looks and wanted to capture me alive to be their leader’s wife.”
—Mo Chen's face darkened: What a smooth-talking, cunning fox! How could I be such an idiot to worry about him?! Looks like I was stupid!
"I refuse. We were chased all the way here, and my brother and I escaped to this place, but we are unfamiliar with the area and don't know how to get out of the mountains. Please, elder brother, kindly help my brother and me escape. If I can repay you in the future, I will definitely do so!"
Cheng Wu stared at Gu Liyan intently, chuckling, "Hehe, little sister, don't be afraid, big brother will take you out!"
"Really? That's great! Thank you, big brother!" Gu Liyan said shyly.
Mo Chen behind him couldn't help but shudder. He never expected Gu Liyan to have such a flamboyant side!
That was absolutely terrifying!
Of course, Cheng Wu never noticed that Gu Liyan's eyes were flashing with a purple light. His voice remained unchanged; it was all just the effect of his seductive arts.
A few hours later, Mo Chen was eating dirt behind some enormous creature.
In contrast, Gu Liyan sat on Cheng Wu's giant shoulders, chatting with Cheng Wu and laughing from time to time.
Looking at Gu Liyan, Mo Chen spat out the grass in his mouth with a look of disgust. "What a sly fox!"
The view suddenly opened up before them, and Cheng Wu pointed to the small town below the mountain and said, "Hehe, Miss Xue'er, that's the town where my Cheng family is stationed. Once you get there, you'll be safe and won't have to worry about being surrounded by the Celestials anymore."
Gu Liyan squinted at the town below the mountain and couldn't help but smile, "Then I really have to thank you, Brother Chengwu."
"Hehe, you're welcome, you're welcome. As long as Miss Xue'er agrees to date me, that's fine—" Cheng Wu said with a simple smile. It was the first time a girl had accompanied him and talked to him so much. He was really happy!
Gu Liyan smiled slightly and said, "I'm so sorry, I'm afraid we'll never meet again..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Wu's gaze went blank, and he froze on the spot. Gu Liyan jumped down from his shoulder.
Upon seeing this, Mo Chen hurriedly ran over, "How is it? What did you find out?"
Gu Liyan straightened his clothes, looking disgusted. "Honestly, if it weren't for completing the mission, I wouldn't have used the Ancient Charm Technique. It's been so long since a man has been this close to me!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Chen subconsciously asked, "You haven't used it on other men, have you?!"
Gu Liyan was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses, realizing that she had seemingly revealed something...
Seeing Mo Chen's aloof and evasive demeanor, Gu Liyan blushed and said, "Ahem, actually, fox demons can choose their gender upon reaching adulthood. Before I came of age, I was female. So, you know..."
Mo Chen pointed a trembling finger at Gu Liyan, "I never expected you to be such a fox!"
Gu Liyan raised the corners of his mouth, revealing his signature foxy smile. "If you dare to let a third person know, I'll punish you according to family rules!"
Mo Chen instinctively covered his mouth, then suddenly realized, "So you told me on purpose!"
