Chapter 58 – Isn’t it good!!!
Shen Xue did not show any mercy towards this junior disciple who intended to do something improper.
With one sword strike, Xu An met his demise.
Worried about future dangers, Gu Mengyao decided not to let Shen Xue stay alone and prepared to share a room.
However, Gu Yu objected to the idea of being the only one in an empty room that night.
He even considered throwing Shen Xue into the spatial dimension, where no one could find her.
But, due to the secrecy of the spatial dimension, it was clearly not a good solution.
Thus, his objection was overruled.
Afterwards, Gu Yu found the innkeeper to open two more rooms and compensated the inn for their losses. He thought about his little wife staying with Shen Xue, leaving him alone to lie on the bed and stare blankly at the ceiling beams.
He felt so miserable he wanted to cry.
Damn it, this Xu An was a jinx.
He not only caused his own death but also brought misfortune upon him.
At this moment, Gu Yu absolutely hated Xu An and his sister from the Tianshan Sect. He thought that if he encountered Xu An’s sister obstructing them tomorrow after entering the Tianshan Sect, he would definitely teach her a lesson.
As for now… there was no other way, he might as well go to sleep early!
Once he woke up from his sleep, he would be able to see his little wife!
…
“A’yu, did you sleep well yesterday?”
“Very well, it’s just that at night I always felt empty, lonely, and cold. Even hugging the quilt couldn’t warm my injured young heart…”
“Stop joking, you’re exaggerating too much!”
The next morning, after breakfast and continuing their journey, Gu Mengyao saw Gu Yu’s dejected expression and quickly wanted to comfort him. However, Gu Yu’s response was both amusing and exasperating.
It was only for one night.
Her little husband was too dramatic. Didn’t he always sleep alone when she went to the military camp?
However, despite saying this, Gu Mengyao didn’t sleep well last night either…
Accustomed to her little husband lying beside her, Gu Mengyao tossed and turned when she suddenly found herself alone.
“It’s true, wife, I don’t want to be left alone in an empty room!”
“There’s no other way. After all, Shen Xue cannot have any accidents. Otherwise, coming to Tianshan this time would be meaningless… Do you still want the Thousand-year Ice Silkworm?”
“Alas! This is the only time. I don’t want to be separated from you next time.”
“We will reach Tianshan today, and such things will not happen again.”
Upon hearing Gu Mengyao mention the Thousand-year Ice Silkworm, Gu Yu was extremely helpless. He thought that if it weren’t for the Thousand-year Ice Silkworm of the Tianshan Sect, he wouldn’t have bothered to rush over through all these troubles.
Wouldn’t it be better to be comfortably lying at home!!!
Therefore, even though it was a strenuous journey, Gu Yu had no complaints and only wished to reach Tianshan quickly!
Thus, with Gu Yu’s anticipation, their group quickly arrived at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains.
However, as Gu Yu looked up, he saw a long and thick chain hanging down from above… Besides this, there was no other way to ascend the mountain.
Damn it!
If someone with a fear of heights saw this, they would probably not even be able to climb up and would faint immediately!
Such a tall mountain, and such a bizarre way to ascend!
No wonder he had never even heard of the Tianshan Sect… One wrong step and they would be waiting to be collected.
“Shen Xue, how do people who don’t know martial arts enter the Tianshan Sect?”
“There used to be a more stable staircase made of chains, but because my master was injured, the sect recalled it and replaced it with chains that only Tianshan Sect disciples can climb.”
“Oh? Then how will you bring us up?”
After Gu Yu had surveyed the grandeur of Tianshan and the difficulty of the journey, he turned to Shen Xue beside him, full of questions about how to ascend the mountain next.
Although Gu Yu could have his wife bring him up.
But what if his wife didn’t know martial arts?
“I can bring one person at a time, so…”
“No need. I can take my husband. Shen Xue, you lead the way ahead!”
When Shen Xue was about to explain upon hearing Gu Yu’s question, Gu Mengyao interrupted her.
Although her words were polite, she clearly did not want any other woman to touch Gu Yu’s body.
Gu Yu was her little husband, so naturally, only she could touch him!
Even if Shen Xue had no such intentions towards Gu Yu, Gu Mengyao would not allow any other woman to carry Gu Yu up the mountain.
It wasn’t like she couldn’t do it, and it wasn’t anyone else’s turn.
Upon hearing his little wife’s strong territoriality, Gu Yu did not feel that Gu Mengyao was too controlling. Instead, he was secretly pleased that she cared so much about him.
There was nothing more beautiful than two people liking each other!
“Okay, I will keep an eye on you to prevent any danger from occurring.”
Although Shen Xue was a little worried about Gu Mengyao’s words, she did not reject the suggestion. Instead, she nodded at the two of them and said that she would watch over them.
However, when Shen Xue saw Gu Mengyao bringing Gu Yu up the mountain together, walking as if on level ground on the chains, her eyes widened in surprise. She couldn’t believe Gu Mengyao was so capable!
If she were to bring someone up the mountain, she definitely wouldn’t be able to do it so smoothly… Even by herself, she wouldn’t be as relaxed and carefree as Gu Mengyao.
This showed that Gu Mengyao’s lightness skill was very powerful!
Seeing how capable Gu Mengyao was, Shen Xue no longer worried too much. She immediately quickened her pace, striving to reach the summit of Tianshan as soon as possible, so that her master’s injuries could recover faster.
“Wife, I estimate that this ascent of Tianshan won’t be resolved too quickly. You need to be prepared for a fight.”
“I knew that since I saw Xu An in the inn yesterday… However, A’yu, have you noticed that although Shen Xue is the Eldest Senior Sister of the Tianshan Sect, she seems to be hiding other secrets.”
“Yes, I’ve noticed, but it has nothing to do with us! Once we resurrect the Sect Leader of the Tianshan Sect and obtain the Thousand-year Ice Silkworm, we will take Shen Xue back to Lian Town.”
As Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao were talking, the chain began to gain an incline. After walking a few hundred meters forward, it had turned into level ground, allowing Gu Yu to get down and walk on his own.
Carrying the medicine box, Gu Yu cautiously looked down and immediately felt dizzy, quickly withdrawing his gaze.
Damn, it was too high!!!
“Divine Doctor Gu, Madam Gu, please follow me, I will lead you to see Master…”
“Shen Xue, you still have the nerve to come back!”
Just as Shen Xue was about to lead Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao to see her master, a sharp female voice suddenly rang out, causing Shen Xue to frown. She hadn’t expected to encounter Xu Jiangxin so soon.
Xu An’s sister, and also the chosen successor for the next Sect Leader of the Tianshan Sect.
