Chapter 3 Return to Gu's House
Gu Liyue was already a little weak from losing too much blood, and she felt even more dizzy after a while. She shook her head, and a fresh breath hit her face. She found herself in the arms of a man, with a strong arm around her waist. She immediately pushed hard and pushed the man away.
Nie Hengzhou stood outside the forest. He concentrated and carefully felt the surrounding atmosphere, thinking about what his master had told him.
The master asked him to be at the edge of the illusion forest at this time, saying that he had his own opportunity.
While he was in a daze, he was almost knocked down by a "small cannonball".
Fortunately, he was agile and with a quick move, he used a rotation to slow down the momentum. He then discovered that there was a girl of about fourteen or fifteen years old in his arms. Although she was dressed in rags and dirt, it could not conceal her temperament and elegance.
He was stunned by her appearance. She had a pair of almond-shaped eyes, clear but a bit confused at the moment. Her small, upturned nose and slightly pale lips made her face look much colder.
Although the scar on her face is a bit of an eyesore, her whole face is still very beautiful. It's just that people can't help but want to help her remove the scar.
But her body is too light!
Seeing the little girl, who looked as if she had been hit and dazed, he frowned, feeling a little sorry.
Unexpectedly, the next second, the other party pushed him away with force. His face turned cold.
All I heard was a cry of "Lecher!"
Gu Liyue looked at him with suspicion, and Xiaoxuan's baby voice came into her mind: "Ninth level of foundation building, you can't beat him."
“…”
She was shocked. She didn't expect Xiaoxuan had this function. It was great. In the future, she would know who to attack and who to retreat from. It was like having an extra instrument to test one's cultivation level.
Contract Xuanhuo was indeed profitable, and I felt secretly happy.
But think about it, I have no cultivation at the moment, so I still need to retreat when I meet most people!
Gu Liyue's desire to become stronger had never been so strong before, so she calmed her mind.
But I heard a baby voice.
"I was just hugged! Liyue, did you feel anything?"
"Does dizziness count?" I didn't expect Xiaoxuan to be such a gossipy person!
"...Liyue, you really don't understand the sound of the wind!"
Nie Hengzhou scoffed at being yelled at, "Didn't the girl throw herself into my arms?"
Gu Liyue knew that what she had just said was wrong, and now that she couldn't beat the other party, she could only say softly, "Sir, I just bumped into you by accident, and I shouldn't have called you a 'lecher'. I apologize to you here."
When Nie Hengzhou heard her mention "lecher" again, he thought of the warmth and softness in his arms just now, and he rubbed his fingers unconsciously. He nodded slightly, as if accepting her apology.
Gu Liyue murmured inwardly, who is this person who seems to have such high cultivation level at such a young age?
The man was quite good-looking, with a tall and slender figure, narrow eyes under a pair of sword-like eyebrows, and a small red mole under the right corner of his eye, which added a bit of color to him.
His nose was high and his angular lips were pursed at the moment, with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned.
Standing there like a green bamboo, he stood tall and proud.
Judging from the direction, he should be going into the city!
She looked at the city gate not far ahead and found that it was slowly opening at this time.
She nodded slightly, walked quickly past and entered the city gate.
Nie Yanzhou watched her disappear before his eyes like a gust of wind.
I sighed inwardly: Seeing that there is no spiritual energy fluctuation around her, she is so fast! I don’t know why she can be so fast without using spiritual energy? I don’t know who she is. Why is she so embarrassed?
She caught Nie Yanzhou's attention!
****
Gu Liyue returned to the Gu Mansion based on her memory. As soon as she entered the mansion, she saw Gu Yaoyao looking anxiously outside the gate.
I guess the news that she is not dead and has disappeared should have reached Gu Yaoyao.
As soon as Gu Yaoyao saw Gu Liyue coming back, she screamed, "You useless piece of shit, why are you here?"
Gu Liyue looked at her coldly: "I am the eldest daughter of the Gu family. If I am not in the Gu family, where else can I be?"
Gu Liyue paused, then moved closer to Gu Yaoyao and said sinisterly, "Do you think... I'm dead?"
Gu Yaoyao took a step back. Why did this bitch look different today? She always looked timid in the past, but why was she so calm and collected today and even said such things?
Her strange fire was dug out by herself, and she was confirmed dead at that time. How could this happen?
Gu Yaoyao raised her hand to slap her, but Gu Liyue stopped her, "What? Are you angry out of shame?"
I originally thought that when dealing with a person without spiritual power, a slap without using spiritual power would definitely be extremely crisp, but it was intercepted. I was careless.
The most important thing was that she had just fused with the strange fire, and whenever she used her spiritual power, her dantian would hurt badly, which made her subconsciously use less spiritual power.
As he spoke, he shook off Gu Liyue's hand. Gu Yaoyao took two steps back and almost fell down.
This piece of trash is the same as before, yet it is different from before!
At this time, the head of the family, Gu Zhen, came over and said, "Liyue, why do you look like this?"
Gu Liyue looked over and saw an old man with gray hair and beard. He looked a bit dignified. He should be the head of the family, the grandfather of the original owner.
She immediately bowed, her clothes looking even more awkward as she moved. "Grandfather, Liyue has been bullied. Please help Liyue."
Gu Liyue wanted to see how much weight she held in the patriarch's heart, how much weight a useless person who couldn't practice held in her grandfather's heart.
"Who? Who bullied you?"
Gu Liyue looked at Gu Yaoyao and was about to speak.
At this time, the furious Gu Yaoyao was worried that what she had done would be exposed.
She was also weighing in her mind the importance of herself and Gu Liyue in the heart of the patriarch. If she told the patriarch that she also had a strange fire, the patriarch would probably favor her!
She knew that although the head of the family valued Gu Liyue's possession of the strange fire, Gu Liyue could not practice cultivation. A person who could not practice cultivation had no contribution to the Gu family, which was quite shameful.
Aren't the noble families of Donglin Kingdom all laughing at the fact that the legitimate daughter of a prestigious alchemy family is a waste who can't practice cultivation?
She no longer hesitated and slapped forward while enduring the pain in her dantian.
With a "bang", Gu Liyue instinctively felt the murderous aura coming from behind. She turned around quickly and took mysterious steps to avoid the palm.
A milky voice rang out: "Foundation Establishment Level 1, Shui, you still can't beat him."
“…”
Gu Liyue thought that Xiao Xuan might have reported something wrong. In her memory, Gu Yaoyao was at the second level of foundation building. Could it be that she was separated from the strange fire she stole from her and regressed a small realm?
Gu Yaoyao was shocked. She didn't expect that even though she didn't try her best, Gu Liyue could dodge it with her palm strike which was at the first level of foundation building strength.
She looked unwilling. If she couldn't beat Gu Liyue up today, she would not be able to get rid of the hatred in her heart.
She summoned the strange fire and gathered it in her palm, then slapped out again.
Gu Liyue felt the heat from the opposite side, with a familiar breath blowing towards her, and she became cautious.
The fiery palm wind was about to strike the front. If she succeeded, Gu Liyue's face would probably be singed. Being burned by something like strange fire would be difficult to recover from.
