Chapter Ten: The Overbearing Little Wife
“Yu, the witch priest is a man. Is that really such a disappointment for you?”
“No, no, I just need an excuse to kill him!”
After killing Song Guangyuan, Gu Mengyao gently called out to Yu, causing goosebumps to rise on Gu Yu’s skin, and he inwardly thought that it was bad; his little wife was jealous!
The consequences of Gu Mengyao being jealous could be very serious!
Seeing this, Gu Yu immediately explained, indicating that he didn’t care at all whether the witch priest was male or female; he just needed an excuse to kill.
Upon seeing Gu Yu’s serious demeanor, Gu Mengyao stopped being jealous. Instead, with a possessive gesture, she kissed him on the cheek, indicating that Gu Yu was hers.
Besides her, he could think of no one else!
After such a domineering action from his little wife, Gu Yu felt delighted in his heart, thinking that his wife had the aura of a domineering CEO!
No wonder those women liked domineering CEOs so much.
He liked his domineering little wife too…
“Brother-in-law, you two can show your affection later! There are so many corpses nearby; it’s surprising you can ignore them.”
Just when Gu Yu wanted to interact more with Gu Mengyao, Gu Qingheng’s voice suddenly rang out, stopping them. Gu Yu then let Little Black out to deal with the corpses, asking it to clean up and not leave them where they could be an eyesore at the door.
Moreover, he needed to remember to clean up the blood at the entrance.
Since Little Black had become more humanized, Gu Yu no longer regarded it as a bear but as a person… No wonder Gu Yu thought so; Little Black’s actions were just like a human’s now.
If he didn’t know that Little Black was a bear, he would think it was a person in a bear skin.
As Little Black pawed up a corpse, the three members of the Gu family returned home and busied themselves with their activities, not lingering in excitement over the killing of the man in black.
Having gone through a lot of events, they had all become accustomed to it.
While Gu Yu was reading the Medical Scripture, he didn’t actually pay attention to the words on the pages but rather contemplated the matter of the Soul-suppressing bell. Was it really true?
Given that he had transmigrated, Gu Yu didn’t dare to outright say it was impossible, so… if this bell truly had such miraculous effects, it definitely needed to be kept in his own hands and not handed over to the witch priest!
However, the appearance of those men in black didn’t seem like they could be found in the near future.
Should he venture into the mountains to look for it?
“Brother-in-law, are you thinking of going into the mountains to find the Soul-suppressing bell?”
“Go away, go away! If you come here again, you better watch out! I’ll tell your sister that you’re interrupting my studies, and then you’ll have a hard time!”
While Gu Yu was lost in thought, Gu Qingheng suddenly snuck in, and when he spoke to Gu Yu, it made Gu Yu look at him suspiciously. He immediately stood firm and tried to shoo away his younger brother-in-law.
As soon as Gu Qingheng arrived, Gu Yu felt that it was no good!
However, Gu Qingheng wore a proud smile and didn’t obediently leave; instead, he moved closer to Gu Yu, with a look that said he understood, making Gu Yu want to punch his younger brother-in-law.
Gu Qingheng understood his brother-in-law very well, so when he heard about the Soul-suppressing bell from the deceased Song Guangyuan, he immediately knew that his brother-in-law would undoubtedly be itching to go and would seek out the bell soon.
So now Gu Qingheng came to see if he could tag along!
Being beside his brother-in-law was always safer, right?
“Brother-in-law, let me go with you! The two of us can look for it together; maybe we can find it quickly!”
“Quickly? I think bringing you along wouldn’t be quick at all! Stop causing trouble here; even if I go, I won’t take you with me.”
“If you don’t take me, I’m going to tell my sister! I’ll say you’re going to venture into the mountains alone; she definitely wouldn’t let you go!”
“Hmph! Do you think I would go without telling her?”
“……”
When Gu Qingheng thought he had caught Gu Yu off guard, Gu Yu smiled slightly, and the words he said left Gu Qingheng stunned, thinking that his brother-in-law was completely unpredictable!
Usually, when faced with such situations, brother-in-law would never tell sister but would sneak off alone.
Why is he telling her now?
“Wondering why I would tell your sister? It’s actually quite simple; the men in black are located right at our doorstep. If I didn’t say anything, it would be very easy for Mengyao to notice, so I figured I might as well say it directly. Besides, I have the ability to protect myself now, so Mengyao wouldn’t worry about me… However, you wanting to come with me into the mountains? Forget it; you should just go back and study!”
“Wuwuwu, brother-in-law, how can you do this! Just take me with you; I promise not to bother you.”
“Want to go? Fine, go ask your sister! As long as she agrees, it’s fine.”
“……”
After hearing Gu Yu’s explanation, Gu Qingheng’s little face showed a sullen expression; he clearly didn’t expect this point.
He thought that by threatening Gu Yu, he could go along, but now it was completely impossible.
Even pretending to be pitying didn’t work, and after hearing he needed sister’s approval, Gu Qingheng fell silent, knowing that he couldn’t go this time.
Having just encountered the men in black in the mountains, his sister definitely wouldn’t agree!
Thinking about this, Gu Qingheng left the room dejectedly, planning to study to vent his frustrations.
At this moment, Gu Yu became resolute in his decision; now that he knew what the men in black were looking for, he couldn’t continue waiting at home. He needed to go and get a piece of the action.
The Soul-suppressing bell…
Although Gu Yu now had medicinal powder as a weapon, he also had obvious shortcomings.
That was distance.
Close-range attacks were fine, but at long range… if it were a powerful archer like Gu Mengyao, Gu Yu didn’t think he could confront sharp arrows with a mere mortal’s body; he would surely be pierced through.
Therefore, having a means for long-range attacks would be extremely useful!
If this Soul-suppressing bell really was that miraculous, Gu Yu could keep ringing the bell while holding a sword or knife in hand to slay the enemies, then stop ringing…
The more he thought about it, the better it seemed. Soon, Gu Yu no longer lay in bed; he energetically got up, ready to venture into the mountains!
However, he needed to inform Gu Mengyao beforehand.
If he left without telling her, Gu Yu could already imagine… his sweet little wife transforming into a shrill scolding lion, and that scene was definitely not something he wanted to experience. So for safety’s sake, he would go and tell her!
After all, Mengyao wouldn’t stop him; she would only give him a few more reminders to be safe!
