At this time, Sheng Mingjue had just entered the private room on the second floor. After closing the door, he sat casually in the main seat and poured a cup of tea leisurely.
"I have heard that people from the Xuanmen sect can tell a person's fate just by looking at his face. I wonder what the young lady saw in my face? Can you tell that I am destined to be unlucky in marriage?"
Gu Yunni shook her head and said with a calm demeanor, "General, your conjugal palace is plump, which doesn't mean you're destined to be unlucky with your wife! In fact, you're surrounded by purple energy, and your destiny is indescribably noble. You're truly worthy of being an emperor!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yunni immediately felt a dagger across her neck.
The smile on the face of the man opposite completely faded, revealing a rare coldness that was rarely shown in front of others. He stared at Gu Yunni with a sharp gaze, which was full of oppression.
"Young lady, don't you know that some words should not be spoken? Saying them is treasonous and punishable by death!"
A trace of regret flashed across his eyes, "So in the next life, I'd better not enter the Xuanmen!"
He slashed the dagger across the fair skin without hesitation, and Gu Yunni grasped the sharp blade as if she had expected it!
Blood instantly dripped down her palm, but she seemed to feel no pain and refused to let go, not even changing her tone: "Look at the general's reaction, he already knows my life story. If that's the case, don't you want to know why you are destined to be an emperor, but you always cause your fiancée to die suddenly?"
Without waiting for the person on the other side to react, she asked herself, "That's because you, General, have been cursed, and now only I can help you!"
Sheng Mingjue paused, his eyes darkening. "Oh? Even if you can help me, how can I be sure you won't betray me? This general says that only dead people are the safest!"
Gu Yunni frowned slightly, as if she had not expected Sheng Mingjue to have such a strong murderous intent. "My method of removing the evil spirit will allow the general to have no worries!"
She raised her eyes and fearlessly met Sheng Mingjue's fierce expression. "General, marry me. Besides removing the evil spirit, you don't have to worry about me betraying you. After all, I won't take risks with my family."
Sheng Mingjue sneered, "Marrying you can get rid of the evil spirit? You're going to do anything to survive!"
Gu Yunni curled her lips and smiled lightly, "Since the General doesn't believe it, then I will prove it to you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her head and kissed Sheng Mingjue on the lips!
Sheng Mingjue felt a soft touch on his lips, and his whole body suddenly stiffened. He had been on guard against Gu Yunni suddenly drawing talismans, but he didn't expect her to kiss him!
He was so shocked that he didn't react immediately!
Just when he was about to take action, the little girl had already taken a step back and looked at him intently.
"Does the General feel it this time?"
"Feeling, feeling what?" Sheng Mingjue stuttered for once.
"The general was plotted against, becoming susceptible to evil. He then spent years on the battlefield, a place with intense evil energy. This caused the evil energy to fill his body, almost solidifying into a physical form. Doesn't he normally feel an invisible pressure on his body?"
Gu Yunni remained calm, her tone distant: "But being close to me can help you drive away the evil spirit."
At this point, Gu Yunni's ears turned red, but her expression remained unchanged. She said seriously, "I was born with the fate of a phoenix. Our union is destiny. With me by your side, the evil spirits will naturally not dare to invade you at will. Therefore, marrying me will only benefit you!"
After being reminded of this, Sheng Mingjue indeed felt a lot lighter.
For a moment, his expression became a little complicated.
He did not agree immediately, and the atmosphere suddenly fell into a strange awkwardness!
Just as Gu Yunni was about to speak again, Sheng Mingjue sheathed his dagger, casually pulled out a bottle of wound medicine from his sleeve, threw it out, and said in a deep voice, "I agree to your terms! I'll send someone to propose marriage tomorrow!"
Gu Yunni breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Sheng Mingjue stride out of the private room.
This person is more troublesome than the evil spirits she had dealt with before.
However, since she was born with the destiny of a phoenix, she was destined not to escape unscathed from this muddy situation in the capital!
In addition, the people from the Changping Marquis Mansion had previously caused a horse attack, which showed that they were determined not to let her have an easy life.
In this case, it would be better to get the protection of Sheng Mingjue, the man of destiny.
Moreover, being close to him would not only benefit him, but he would also clearly feel that his magic power had increased a bit.
She slowly let out a breath, went downstairs and walked towards home.
However, before she even got home, she ran into her mother, who was in a hurry and looked panicked. She calmed her mother down and asked in a deep voice, "Mom, what happened?"
When Mother Gu saw her daughter, she grabbed her hand tightly as if she had found her backbone. "Yun Ni, it's bad, your brother is missing!"
Gu Yunni's expression changed, and then he counted with his fingers.
"Kou Mingxue!"
When he figured out the culprit, murderous intent flashed in Gu Yunni's eyes.
Since she is looking for trouble, don't blame me for being rude!
