Chapter 964 Uninvited Guests
Hongyi was very happy. She hadn't felt this way for a long time since she parted with Gu An.
The two chatted casually in the courtyard. Hongyi had a very cold personality, and even when she was talking about her own experiences, her tone was very flat.
After leaving Gu An, she traveled around the world and occasionally encountered fights, but her reputation did not spread, and she disdained to reveal her name to others.
Later, she came to this mountain and lived in seclusion there. When she was bored, she would enlighten some wood spirits to make the yard lively.
Speaking of wood spirits, Hongyi asked the bamboo people to come out and say hello to Gu An.
These bamboo men jumped onto Gu An and chattered non-stop like a group of birds. He didn't think it was noisy and began to tease them.
Hongyi couldn't help but smile as she saw that Gu An was enjoying this atmosphere. These bamboo figures were all created by her and had been with her for so long that she had feelings for them. Although she couldn't describe this feeling yet, she hoped that Gu An could accept them.
After playing with the bamboo people for a while, Hongyi asked them to leave and left the yard for them to be alone.
Gu An looked around and asked, "Are you going to stay here forever?"
Hongyi replied: "Once I break through to the next level, I will move to another place."
Today, she has already reached the perfect level of Miaozhen Daluo Immortal Realm and is only one step away from becoming Daoji Daluo Immortal.
Even in today's Zhongtian, Dao Daluoxian is an unrivaled great power who is superior to all living things. To reach this level is to step into the pinnacle of the immortal way, and to be free between chaos and the way of heaven. Going further up, that is the way to ask for the way, to pursue the great way.
Gu An nodded without commenting.
Hongyi looked at Gu An and asked, "How long do I have to leave you?"
Gu An, who was admiring the flowers, was surprised when he heard this and asked, "When have you ever left? You don't think it's troublesome for me to come to you, do you?"
"Isn't it?" Hongyi asked, raising his chin slightly.
You know what, she looks quite energetic like this.
Gu An asked with a smile: "What do you want me to believe?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hongyi suddenly slapped out his palm and slapped Gu An with a force as strong as thunder.
boom--
The forest behind Gu An was directly annihilated, forming a huge empty belt. Wherever the palm wind went, the mountains were turned into powder and even the sea of clouds was torn apart.
Gu An's green robe fluttered violently, and his long hair fluttered with it, but his expression remained unchanged and he still smiled.
Hongyi raised her eyebrows, and she increased her magic power again, causing the mountain where they were to be shattered. The earth continued to collapse, and lightning bolts like dragons and snakes appeared in the sky, raging.
Those bamboo people gathered around Hongyi and jumped non-stop like fish in boiling water.
Gu An raised his hand, grabbed her wrist, and removed her aura. Then, the shattered world suddenly returned to normal and the courtyard reappeared, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.
Hongyi was not surprised. She had seen Gu An's methods like this many times, which was why she dared to act so recklessly.
"I have known you since I was born. I have never seen the heaven and earth before, but now I have some understanding of Zhongtian. I want to know, who are you? Are you a human or an immortal?"
Hongyi withdrew her hand, looked at Gu An steadily, and asked seriously.
Whenever she thought of Gu An, she would be curious about his identity.
Although she seldom fought with others over the years, she had been to the temples of powerful masters to listen to teachings and witnessed other cultivators fighting. However, all the beings she had seen, including immortals and gods, were far inferior to Gu An, at least in her heart.
Gu An’s strength lies not in his destructive power but in his mystery.
She felt that no matter how hard she tried, Gu An would be able to resolve the situation.
Just like what happened just now, the destroyed environment suddenly returned to its original state, and she couldn't tell whether it was an illusion or a real thing.
Gu An's performance made her feel that he was omnipotent.
She had guessed various possibilities, but she still hoped that Gu An would tell her in person what his identity was.
Gu An faced her gaze calmly, he smiled softly and said: "Then let's get to know each other again. My name is Gu An. I am not a fairy, nor a god. I am just an ordinary person with no fame."
"What are ordinary people?" Hongyi asked curiously.
This sentence made Gu An a little stunned.
Yes, the term "ordinary people" sounds contradictory.
Gu An shook his head and laughed, saying: "Anyway, those identities you guessed in your heart do not belong to me. I am just like you during this period of time, practicing silently and no one knows."
Hongyi seemed to be thinking about something, and then said: "Then can you take me with you in the future?"
This girl has decided to stick with him.
Gu An was not opposed to it either. The reason why he was unwilling to take Hong Yi with him before was that he hoped Hong Yi could establish his own cognition in the world and clarify the path he wanted to take.
After so many years, Hongyi's decision was not impulsive, so he naturally respected it.
but……
"Don't worry, maybe you will change your mind after a while."
Gu An said meaningfully, then stepped towards her attic.
Hongyi became interested after hearing this. She immediately followed Gu An and started asking questions. Unfortunately, no matter how she asked, Gu An did not answer.
Gu An stayed until the evening before leaving.
Hongyi was a little worried and waited until noon the next day. When Gu An appeared in front of her, she finally believed what Gu An said.
When something Gu An said happened, she would follow Gu An and leave. She didn't want to practice alone anymore.
And so, the days passed.
A few months later.
When Hongyi was still immersed in Gu An's company, an uninvited guest arrived.
Hongyi, who was practicing sword in the yard, opened her eyes. Behind her, Gu An was lying on the eaves basking in the sun, looking very comfortable.
There was no strange phenomenon between heaven and earth, but Hongyi could feel something unusual.
The wind stopped.
The surrounding environment seemed unchanged, but in fact they had been pulled into another space.
She looked up and saw that the woods outside the courtyard were quiet and there was no one in sight.
Those little bamboo people were lying in a row on the steps in front of the door, all sleeping soundly. Some of them were even snoring, and their snoring sounded so loud in the current environment.
Hongyi looked into the depths of the woods and did not stand up.
Time passes by every second.
About half a cup of tea later, a figure walked out from the depths of the woods and walked along the steps towards Hongyi's yard. When he came outside the yard, the bamboo fence could only cover his lower body.
This is a white-haired man, wearing black clothes and a long silver crown. There is a chain hanging on his forehead, and the pendant is inlaid with a blood-red gem, like a vertical eye.
His skin was so pale, his pupils were silver, and his expression was so cold that it was chilling.
The white-haired man's gaze fell on Hongyi, with a strong desire in his eyes.
His gaze then moved to Gu An on the roof, and his brows slightly frowned, as if he was surprised by Gu An's presence.
