Chapter 212: Gratitude
Qing'er said, "I heard that the city where I ascended is now called Qingwu City. Let's go there and take a look!"
Gu Yue said: "Okay then."
After confirming the itinerary, we set off.
When they arrived at the outskirts of the city, Gu Yue suggested, why don’t you take my spirit boat? Last time when we dealt with Yan Weili, I got his spirit boat. I’ll drive it and you guys just sit in it.
Everyone except Qing'er changed color and raised their hands to wave.
Gu Yue found them so amused that she could only say, "Forget it if you don't want to sit down."
Qing'er was confused, so Xuanhuo explained, "Gu Liyue likes the Speeding Spirit Boat and Speeding Spirit Sword. No one dares to ride her Spirit Sword or Spirit Boat."
Qing'er laughed and said, "If there's a chance, I can give it a try."
Gu Yue's eyes sparkled as she asked, "Really?"
Qing'er nodded and said, "Of course."
Everyone had to fly over with their weapons, while Qing'er and Xuanhuo flew directly over.
Xuanhuo watched Gu Yue's sword light fly away quickly with a "whoosh". He remembered that he was always afraid of riding Gu Liyue's flying sword, and he found it a little funny.
He was no longer afraid, and couldn't help but feel how weak he had been before! It felt so good to have his cultivation back.
He quickly caught up with her and flew side by side with her. After a while, Nie Zhou also arrived and was on the other side of Gu Yue.
After flying for a day and a half, they finally arrived near Qingwu City. They did not enter the city, but were led into the forest by Qing'er.
At this time, Qing'er saw a group of monks fighting a monster on the only way to her cave. It was a fourth-level monster with wings on its back, a body shaped like a horse, a single horn on its forehead, and a maroon color.
Qing'er said, "This is a unicorn. Usually unicorns are snow-white, but this one's bloodline probably isn't very pure!"
The group of cultivators surrounding it consisted of five people, three men and two women, all in the Foundation Establishment stage, with only one in the Golden Core stage. Qing'er shook her head and said, "They can't defeat this monster."
At this time, a female cultivator in the group said, "Fellow Daoists, if you can help us tame this unicorn, I can pay you 10,000 medium-grade spirit stones as a reward."
Her tone was arrogant, as if she was giving alms.
Gu Yue frowned and did not respond.
Another male cultivator surrounding the unicorn said, "Xiaoting, don't waste time talking to them. We should just surround it!"
At this time, the unicorn saw that the two people here had diverted their attention. It raised its head to look at the magic net laid in the sky, lowered its head, and the magic power came out from its horn and hit the male cultivator. When he fell, a break appeared in the encirclement, and it ran out. After running out of the encirclement, it spread its wings and flew away.
Wang Xiaoting watched the unicorn she had finally trapped walk away. She said angrily, "It's all your fault! If you hadn't come, how could it have left?"
Wen Qing looked at her coldly and said, "You didn't catch it, you just surrounded it. Even if we hadn't arrived, you wouldn't have been able to catch it."
Wang Xiaoting acted like a spoiled young lady from a noble family and said, "You have to compensate me for my unicorn!"
Qing'er looked at her in disbelief: "I've never seen such a unreasonable person."
Wang Xiaoting said, "Our Wang family elders are nearby. If we hang around a little longer, they'll arrive and definitely catch this unicorn for us. It's because of you guys messing around that it got away!"
Gu Yue said, "I heard that the Wang family of Qingwu City is marrying into the Dongfeng family of Suzaku City. With the behavior of this young generation, it seems that the Wang family's luck is almost over."
As soon as she finished saying this, Gu Yue felt the pressure on her body suddenly increase. This was the pressure from a strong man. She gritted her teeth and resisted, not allowing herself to kneel down. Sweat streamed down Gu Yue's face.
Xuanhuo immediately sensed someone exerting pressure on her.
He waved his hand, and the pressure dissipated instantly.
Gu Yue let out a breath and stood up straight.
She asked loudly, "I wonder why the senior attacked the junior?"
At this moment, a figure teleported in front of her. It was a middle-aged man wearing a gray robe and had a handsome face. "Just based on what you said, the Wang family's luck is about to end."
Gu Yue said, "Senior, please be reasonable. This Miss Wang has slandered us, saying that the unicorn escaped because of us and demanded compensation from us. You say that this descendant of the Wang family is so unreasonable. I have legitimate doubts about the fate of the Wang family."
"I already know what happened. It's definitely not your fault. Go away!"
The second elder of the Wang family sensed that his imposing aura hadn't subsided, but had been dispelled by other masters. Anyone who could silently dispel his imposing aura must be far more powerful than him. He didn't dare to leave them behind.
He looked around but couldn't tell who had made the move. Perhaps he was trapped in the dark.
Wang Xiaoting said, "Second Elder, if they don't come, the unicorn won't run away. As long as you arrive, we can catch it."
The second elder glanced at Wang Xiaoting, and she immediately stopped talking.
Gu Yue said: "Let's go."
As they spoke, they walked deeper into the forest.
Wang Xiaoting stamped her feet and pouted unhappily.
Gu Yue and the others walked for a while, and Qiao Mai also dug up a lot of spiritual herbs along the way.
Xiao Feng saw a red figure in front of him and asked, "Is that the unicorn in front of you?"
Nie Zhou took a look and said, "That should be it."
Gu Yue asked curiously, "Why is it in front of us?"
Xuanhuo said: "It probably thought we saved it and wanted to take us treasure hunting."
Everyone looked at Xuanhuo in bewilderment. How could he do this? This monster really knew how to repay a favor.
The cute Xia Jing'er said awkwardly, "Then let's follow it and see where it takes us."
Xuanhuo said: "In fact, the unicorn is a healing monster. It is timid and understanding. It can also feel the good and evil of the monks towards it."
Qing'er looked in this direction and felt a little familiar: "This is... Does he know where my cave is?"
Gu Yue said, "Does it want to take us to your cave?"
Qing'er said, "That should be it. Let's follow it and see."
At this moment, a female voice screamed, "I told you! They're fooling us. Otherwise, why would they be with that unicorn?"
"Second Elder, you want me to make the decision!"
The Second Elder frowned and asked, "Is this your trap?"
Qing'er said arrogantly: "Didn't you see that we followed it, and it brought us here?"
The unicorn sensed hostility, so it spread its wings, flew up, and flew away.
Wang Xiaoting said, "It's gone now. You can say whatever you want! I think you're all in the same group."
Gu Yue said: "If we are in the same group, then you are right to target our friends, right?"
Wang Xiaoting choked and was speechless.
She walked over to the Second Elder, tugged on his sleeve, and shook it, saying, "Second Elder, look at how sharp their tongues are. Make them compensate me for my unicorn."
