Gu Ruoyun shook her head. “No, there’s something else that I need you to do.”
“What is it?” Gu Shengxiao was shocked and he knitted his brows as he asked.
“I want you to make a trip to the Red Lotus Territory and inform Mother and Father to be wary of the Wen family! I’m afraid that the Wen family will attack them! This is the most important thing to me. As for the Dark Earth Realm, you won’t be of help even if you go.” Gu Ruoyun then turned her gaze towards Gu Shengxiao. “Besides, I’m afraid they might worry if they find out about my journey to the Dark Earth Realm!”
Gu Shengxiao looked at Gu Ruoyun as his grim eyes flashed with an unreadable light.
After a long pause, he sighed. “I understand, I’ll go look for Mother and Father.”
Besides, I won’t leave you to venture into the Dark Earth Realm on your own either…
At the thought of this, Gu Shengxiao’s eyes darted back and forth before his gaze gradually filled with determination.
It looks like that would be the only way if he wants to raise his power!
Only then would he be able to enter the Dark Earth Realm and help his sister to save Qianbei Ye…
However…
Gu Shengxiao’s heart was filled with a bitter smile at the thought of this.
For his sister and Qianbei Ye, who was now in danger, he has no other way! If giving up this body was the price he needs to pay for their safety, he would not be a miser about it…
“Don’t let Mother or Father find out about this. Otherwise, knowing Mother and Father, they would instantly storm into the Dark Earth Realm,” Gu Ruoyun instructed him solemnly. “Also, they are waiting for your return in Red Lotus Territory.”
Gu Shengxiao opened his mouth to speak but his voice seems to be stuck in his throat.
He then reached out with open arms and pulled Gu Ruoyun into his arms before he gently murmured, “Be careful!”
“I understand.”
Gu Ruoyun lowered her eyelids, concealing the intent in her eyes.
As Gu Ruoyun had looked away from Gu Shengxiao, she had not noticed the determined light in his eyes either.
If she had known that this fellow would make that decision so he could enter the Dark Earth Realm to bring her aid, she would never have let him stay in the First City! Her ignorance had carved a great regret in the future for her…
Once Gu Ruoyun had finished saying her piece, she did not spare the man a second glance and headed down the mountain.
“Little girl, you’ve purposely sent him away… I assume that this is because you don’t wish for him to take this risk, am I correct?”
Just then, a demonic voice rang out from Gu Ruoyun’s soul.
The Wen family?
That had been merely an excuse!
Her true objective was not for Gu Shengxiao to warn her mother and father of the Wen family’s actions but to make him stay away!
“I can save Qianbei Ye in the Dark Earth Realm on my own. If he comes along with me, I’m afraid that he would be put in danger.” Gu Ruoyun lifted her eyes to look at a distance as she slowly remarked, “Zixie, Xiao Ye has always come to my rescue so, this time, it’s my turn to save him! I will find him no matter where he is. I will save him even if I have to bathe the entire Dark Earth Realm in blood. No one can take my man away from me!”
The woman’s green robes fluttered gently in the breeze, displaying an air of dominance. Her gaze was extremely sharp like a blade which could cause hearts to tremble.
Zixie thought for a moment before he replied, “Little girl, based on your current level of power, you will most certainly die if you go up against the Three-Headed Hell Dragon! However, I have another way into the Dark Earth Realm. That path is just as dangerous with a slim chance of survival! Are you sure you want to go ahead?”
