Chapter 303 The whereabouts of Gu Hong and Zhao Xiruo
Gu Fengyang patted his shoulder with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Good boy, why do you still call me Master Gu?"
"It's too strange."
Yun Chen lowered his eyes and spoke calmly, "Etiquette cannot be abandoned."
"When the wedding day comes, I will naturally change my tune."
Let him recognize the thief as his father and call this old man grandpa?
Go dream!
If it wasn't for saving Ruoruo, he wouldn't even look at such a disgusting thing.
And marry your granddaughter...My Ruoruo is ten thousand times better than your granddaughter!
Your granddaughter is not even worthy of carrying my shoes!
Seeing that he insisted, Gu Fengyang did not force him anymore. He just thought that he was being shy, and he liked him even more.
Knowing etiquette and when to advance and retreat is good, not bad.
"Alright, alright."
"Come, take Master Yun down to have a good rest."
"Yes."
The manager outside the door came in and led Yun Chen out.
The door of the study was closed and the room returned to silence.
The smile on Gu Fengyang's face had not yet faded. He picked up the teacup and took a sip comfortably.
At this moment, a slender figure slowly walked out from behind the screen at the back of the study.
It was Gu Qingzi.
Gu Fengyang put down the teacup, looked at his granddaughter, and spoke gently.
"Did you hear everything?"
Gu Qingzi nodded slightly without saying anything.
"If you have no objection, Grandpa... will you order someone to take care of it?"
There was a hint of inquiry in Gu Fengyang's voice.
Gu Qingzi still nodded: "Everything... is up to Grandpa."
Gu Fengyang stood up, walked to his granddaughter, and looked at her little face with some heartache.
"Qingzi, your father hasn't been around for so many years. He couldn't even witness your wedding..."
"Grandpa knows that you must have regrets in your heart."
When the word "father" was mentioned, Gu Qingzi's body shook almost imperceptibly.
Gu Fengyang stretched out his hand, wanting to touch her head like he did when they were children, but his hand stopped halfway.
"Don't worry...he will come back."
"One day, he will come back with dignity."
"Grandpa will then hold a more grand wedding for you!"
Gu Qingzi's long eyelashes trembled, hiding all the emotions in her eyes.
She didn't say much, but just nodded silently.
At the same time, outside Qingshi City.
A horse-drawn carriage was bumping along the bumpy dirt road.
On the car, a man and a woman were sitting in a mess. They were Gu Hong and Zhao Xiruo.
Both of them were injured and their clothes were torn to shreds by sharp claws.
Gu Hong's face was pale, his left arm was roughly hung with a cloth strip, his breathing was weak, and it was obvious that he had serious internal injuries.
Zhao Xiruo's condition was slightly better, but her face was also covered with scratches and her lips were chapped.
After being swept into the secret realm of practicing magic by the spatial torrent, their luck became extremely bad.
It did not land in a prosperous city, nor in the stable territory of a sect, but was directly teleported to the "Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts".
That ghost place is full of ferocious beasts left over from ancient times, with violent temperaments, and there are even a few terrifying creatures comparable to the Nascent Soul stage.
As soon as they landed, the strange smell attracted several bloodthirsty demon wolves.
If Gu Hong had not risked his serious injuries to use several of his most valuable life-saving trump cards, and if the Hunyuan Pearl on Zhao Xiruo had not burst out with devouring power at the critical moment, shocking the beasts, the two of them would probably have become food for those ferocious beasts long ago.
Even so, the escape exhausted all their energy.
Although the Hunyuan Pearl is magical, Zhao Xiruo needs to consume her mental energy to activate it. At this moment, she just feels dizzy.
The carriage jolted violently again, and Zhao Xiruo's body swayed and she almost fell off.
"Hey, where are you taking me?"
"It's been so many days, are you lost?"
After experiencing a life-and-death struggle, Zhao Xiruo's fear of Gu Hong has faded a lot.
Although this man is strong and ferocious, he will still be injured, bleed, and flee in a panic in the Forest of Beasts.
Compared to the kidnapper next to her, she is more worried about Yun Chen.
Cloud Dust...
Did he go back?
Have you returned to the secular world?
What if he couldn't return and was also dragged into this dangerous and secret realm of cultivation...
Zhao Xiruo didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Yun Chen...his cultivation is not that high yet. What should he do if he encounters that kind of thing?
Gu Hong was closing his eyes to regulate his breathing, but when he heard Zhao Xiruo's question, he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Shut up."
Zhao Xiruo shrank back at his glare and subconsciously shut her mouth.
Gu Hong snorted coldly and said slowly: "This place is called Qingshi City."
“Although it’s not as good as Lingxiao City where our Gu family is, it’s also a good place to stay.”
"First, find a place here to heal your wounds. When I recover, I will take you back to the family."
"You'd better not play any tricks before this, otherwise... I can kill you at any time."
The blatant threat made the air in the car a little colder.
Zhao Xiruo bit her lower lip, turned her head to the side silently, and said no more.
The carriage wobbled as it drove to the gate of Qingshi City.
The guards guarding the city stopped them and glanced at the two men's tattered clothes and wounds with a bit of vigilance.
"What's your name and why are you coming to the city?"
Gu Hong endured the pain and impatience, took out a few low-grade spirit stones from his arms, and stuffed them into the hands of the other party calmly: "Gu Hong."
"A traveling merchant passed by here and was attacked by a monster. He came into the city to recuperate."
The guard weighed the spirit stone, his alertness softened a little, and he waved his hand, "Go in."
The two men got off the carriage and limped into the city gate.
The city was bustling with people, and the sounds of hawking were filled with the atmosphere of worldly life, which made Zhao Xiruo, who had been tense for days, feel a little relieved.
She looked around curiously, and suddenly her eyes were attracted by a notice posted on the city wall.
"This...someone is looking for you!"
"Gu Hong! It's really your name!"
"brush--!"
In an instant, the eyes of more than a dozen passers-by around him turned to look over.
Gu Hong's face turned pale instantly.
Damn, what bad luck!
He grabbed Zhao Xiruo's wrist with such force that it hurt.
Fortunately, the man in the portrait looked very different from himself.
Everyone looked at him a few times, and when they saw that they didn't match his appearance, they dispersed.
The corners of Gu Hong's mouth twitched violently a few times, and he lowered his voice and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Do you want to die?"
Zhao Xiruo also knew that she had caused trouble. She shrank her neck in fear and dared not say a word.
Gu Hong took a look at the wanted poster and it said.
Gu Hong, slaughtered the outer disciples and elders of Qingyun Sect, and stole the treasures from Zhou family's treasury!"
"Qingyun Sect?"
Gu Hong frowned. He was too lazy to care about such trivial matters. Now he just wanted to find a place to heal his wounds immediately.
He pulled Zhao Xiruo and walked quickly into the city, wanting to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.
However, they had just turned a corner and had not gone far.
“Thump, thump, thump—!”
A middle-aged man came towards them quickly and blocked their way.
His cultivation was at the middle stage of foundation building, and he swept over Gu Hong.
"You, are Gu Hong?"
Gu Hong's heart skipped a beat.
He is now seriously injured and only one tenth of his spiritual power remains. Let alone a person in the middle stage of foundation building, even if someone comes at the peak of Qi training, he may not be able to deal with it easily.
"Yes."
He wanted to see what these people were trying to do.
As soon as he uttered this word, the middle-aged man waved his hand violently.
"Surround it up!"
"Crack-!"
The dozen or so cultivators behind him instantly dispersed, drawing their swords, and surrounded Gu Hong and Zhao Xiruo in the center, blocking all their escape routes.
This sudden change left Gu Hong completely confused.
what the hell?
He doesn't even know these people!
Not to mention the damn Qingyun Sect!
Just as he was filled with doubt and uncertainty, he heard several sounds of breaking wind in the sky above his head.
"Boo! Hah! Hah!"
Several powerful auras descended from the sky and pressed down fiercely!
Gu Hong raised his head suddenly, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
