"Mom! You...how did you become like this?"
Gongsun Lu'e rushed towards the old woman in fear, wanting to hug the dirty old woman...
But Qiu Qianchi has been in the dungeon for many years, and only her hatred for Gongsun Zhi keeps her alive... Gongsun Lue'e is her and Gongsun Zhi's daughter, and even though she loves her daughter very much in her heart, how can she not feel a little hatred when she sees her again?
"Get out of here!" Qiu Qianchi suddenly pushed his bald head, but Xiaolongnu was quick-witted and quickly pulled her aside, but she almost hurt Gongsun Lue'e!
"Mom! I'm Lu'e! Don't you remember me?"
"How could I not remember you? Why did Gongsun Zhi ask you to come? To trick me with your sweet words, right?"
Qiu Qianchi roared loudly, and her ugly and miserable appearance made her look extremely ferocious!
"Ah?" Gongsun Lu'e looked at her mother in astonishment. "I've suffered for more than ten years, thinking I was a motherless orphan. It turns out my mother is alive and well. I... I..."
"She's truly worthy of being Gongsun Zhi's daughter, so good at sweet talk!"
Qiu Qianchi was completely unmoved by Gongsun Lue'e and continued to criticize her harshly! Xiaolongnu was too lazy to read on. She had never been interested in outsiders' gossip, let alone knowing that Qiu Qianchi was a resentful woman!
"If you have anything to say, go up and talk!"
Xiao Longnu took a step forward, waved her hand, and directly wrapped Qiu Qianchi with her true energy... When Qiu Qianchi was about to scold Xiao Longnu, she saw her body and her daughter walking towards the cave entrance little by little under Xiao Longnu's pull. The elegance of their posture and the slow speed showed Xiao Longnu's profound cultivation to the fullest!
Instantly, Qiu Qianchi made a decision... What a joke! She would never seek death before successfully avenging Gongsun Zhi!
After they came out of the cave and left the alchemy room, they were thrown onto the grass outside the room... The scent of green grass that they hadn't smelled for a long time, the bright sunshine, and the wide view made Qiu Qianchi burst into tears!
She finally returned to the human world!
"Gongsun Lu'e, we'll give you one hour. You can call over the disciples from the Unfeeling Valley to help your mother wash and dress... You can also find out what happened to your mother... After one hour, you can return with your mother."
After saying that, Di Fan waved his hand, jumped onto the treetop, and stood side by side with Xiaolongnu.
Well, ever since he learned martial arts, he'd also grown fond of the feeling of showing off... Standing on a treetop, the breeze blew against his face; his body swayed with the treetops, his gaze filled with an incomparably vast landscape...
To be honest, in this ancient time when there was very little entertainment, just being able to see such scenery at any time was enough to make his martial arts training worthwhile!
An hour passed quickly. When they saw Gongsun Lue'e again, her eyes were red and swollen. Qiu Qianchi had also finished washing up and was carried by four disciples to the two of them.
"Sir, I'm back."
Gongsun Lu'e bowed to the two men and said, "Thank you for saving my mother... If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known how much my mother had suffered."
As she spoke, Gongsun Lu'e's eyes began to turn red again, as if she felt the same way...
[Yes, this girl understands empathy. This is the most beautiful quality of an official...]
Di Fan nodded secretly and praised.
Xiaolongnu also felt a little recognition of him in her heart. If one wants to be a good official who monitors the world, what is most needed is the compassionate heart that can empathize with others!
Di Fan's gaze flickered at Qiu Qianchi, and he no longer took her seriously... In herself, she was not important.
"Gongsun Lu'e, I have rescued your mother as promised. Now, can you tell us the secret passage to the Valley of Unrequited Love?"
"I……"
Gongsun Lu'e hesitated, unsure whether to speak or not. Qiu Qianchi spoke from the side.
"The old woman has a question for the two masters."
"I'm not a real person, just call me Di Fan. This is my junior sister, Xiao Longnu, the Xiantian real person."
Di Fan, revealing his name for the first time... Qiu Qianchi's eyes flashed. Di? Long Nu? These two names are very particular!
"Then I will just call you Mr. Di."
"Can."
"I wonder what Mr. Di and the real person are up to today when they enter the Valley of Unrequited Love?"
Qiu Qianchi went straight to the point and asked directly about the two people's origins.
"There's nothing to hide. We intend to rise up in rebellion and overthrow the unjust Song Dynasty. Jueqing Valley is the place we've chosen to hide and train our troops! And your daughter is the official we've chosen to become the future Imperial Censor!"
Di Fan said lightly, but his eyes were fixed on Qiu Qianchi!
Qiu Qianchi showed an expression of "as expected", and Di Fan's heart moved... It seems that his guess was right!
[I was right. Qiu Qianren, the leader of the Iron Palm Gang, is planning a rebellion!]
[Tsk tsk, no wonder he married his sister to Gongsun Zhi... Unfortunately, he probably didn't expect that he wanted his sister to take over the Unrequited Valley, but his sister was blinded by love and almost died at Gongsun Zhi's hands.]
[Alas, women are good in every way, except that they can be too emotional sometimes.]
"I can represent my daughter and have her join you. Moreover, I can give you the entire Jueqing Valley as a base for your uprising!"
"What do you want?"
Xiaolongnu walked down from the treetop step by step, her cold eyes falling quietly on Qiu Qianchi's face.
Ever since she defeated King Jinlun at Guo Mansion in Xiangyang last time, the already invincible Xiaolongnu's aura has become more and more domineering. Just by standing there quietly, she gives people an air of unquestionableness!
[Junior Sister, this aura is quite impressive. She's already starting to feel like an empress!]
Qiu Qianchi shuddered... Xiantian Zhenren is worthy of being Xiantian Zhenren, this aura is indeed extraordinary!
"I have only one request. You must capture Gongsun Zhi and bring him before me so that I can judge him!"
"Mother!"
Gongsun Lue'e's face changed drastically, and she was about to stop her... Qiu Qianchi glared at her fiercely, like a devil, and scolded his own daughter!
"Gongsun Zhi is so ungrateful and shameless, are you still going to plead for him? I must make sure he dies without a burial place, only then can I relieve the hatred in my heart!"
The expression on Xiaolongnu's face did not change at all, and there was even a hint of a smile in the depths of her eyes.
After she finished scolding her daughter, Xiao Longnu chuckled, "You mean, you'll only hand over Jueqing Valley to me if I capture Gongsun Zhi and bring him to you? Is that your condition?"
"nature……"
Qiu Qianchi nodded as a matter of course... But Gongsun Lue'e, who had just bowed her head and cried, suddenly had an epiphany. She raised her head and saw the murderous intent in Xiaolongnu's eyes...
Without waiting for Qiu Qianchi to finish his words, she immediately prostrated herself and said, "I, Gongsun Lu'e, a humble woman, am willing to offer the Jueqing Valley to contribute my humble efforts to the cause of overthrowing the corrupt Song Dynasty!"
