Chapter 28 Truly Cool
After hearing the scream, Gege, with courage he didn’t know where it came from, actually dashed alone towards the place of the sound.
However, the surrounding Imperial Guards were not to be trifled with. With just a few easy steps forward, they immediately grabbed Gege by the collar.
Their swiftness was also due to Mengyao Gu’s prior instructions not to go easy on Gege.
Who knew if he was an informant sent by the enemy?
“Let me go, I want to find my wife, she’s really not dead, woo woo woo, I came too late…”
Perhaps thinking that he preferred to be a mountain bandit on the mountain rather than coming back to save his wife, Gege started crying as he spoke.
His wailing made Mengyao Gu frown, and someone clever immediately raised a hand and covered Gege’s wide-open mouth.
Afterwards, Mengyao Gu no longer paid attention to Gege. She instructed the Imperial Guards to stay put and went ahead to check by herself.
Naturally, the numerous Imperial Guards disagreed with Mengyao Gu’s decision. They all beat their chests loudly, declaring that they were definitely not cowards.
They urged Mengyao Gu to bring them along, stating that even if they died here, they wouldn’t be afraid.
When life is lost, a scar the size of a bowl remains.
What’s more, the Imperial Guards were prepared to die here this time.
This mission was very perilous. Even though Mengyao Gu was quite capable, she couldn’t bring everyone back.
There would always be casualties.
After hearing the pleas of the many Imperial Guards to bring them along, Mengyao Gu cast a cold glance around.
wherever her gaze fell, the Imperial Guards couldn’t help but tremble, then lowered their heads, not daring to meet Mengyao Gu’s eyes.
Even Gege stopped crying loudly. After being glanced at by Mengyao Gu’s icy gaze, his body trembled like a sieve.
He hadn’t realized before that Commander Gu was no ordinary person!
With such a sharp gaze, Gege felt that his shrew of a wife had turned into a fairy, completely incomparable to Mengyao Gu.
To possess such cold eyes, faintly revealing strong malevolent energy, she must have killed many people…
Thinking of this, Gege’s body trembled even more uncontrollably. The impulse he felt upon hearing his wife’s voice earlier had now completely subsided.
Gege now only wanted to hide behind a tree, lick his wounds alone, and not be scared by Mengyao Gu anymore.
It was truly terrifying.
After Mengyao Gu surveyed the surroundings and saw that no one spoke up again, the anger in her heart gradually subsided.
She had said she would bring everyone back, and she would fulfill her promise.
However, the actions of these Imperial Guards seeking death were unbearable in Mengyao Gu’s eyes.
Her going ahead alone to gather information was much better than bringing a group of people, lest someone drag them down and expose their tracks.
Or perhaps, these Imperial Guards didn’t trust her martial arts?
Thinking of these things, Mengyao Gu’s anger rose again. She thought that her own soldiers were better.
Whatever she said, her subordinates would execute without any hesitation.
Just as Mengyao Gu was about to teach these people a lesson, she suddenly saw Gu Yu smiling. For some reason, the anger in her heart instantly vanished.
Gu Yu was her much-needed medicine!
He doubled as a way to cool her temper.
“I’ll say it again. Since I led you to the Southern Border, I will also lead you back to the Capital intact! Also, from now on, my orders are not to be questioned or debated. I want you to execute them silently! Now, did you hear me?”
“We heard you.”
Seeing that the Imperial Guards in front of her were all tamed, Mengyao Gu nodded in satisfaction. Then, she didn’t waste any more time on the spot but rushed forward like a gust of wind.
Her mission was very important, and she had to understand the situation at Zhongjia Village.
Therefore, there was no need to hold back anymore.
She had to push her martial arts to the extreme.
“My goodness, what did I just see? Is Instructor Gu’s speed even human?”
“How can you say that! Instructor Gu is definitely human, it’s just that her martial arts are too amazing, so her afterimages appeared in our eyes!”
“Alas, I used to aim to surpass Instructor Gu, to ‘out-blue the blue’… but after seeing Instructor Gu’s true strength today, I feel like nothing more than a frog in a well!”
“Who’s not? Instructor Gu must have intentionally suppressed herself before, which is why we felt we had a chance to surpass her.”
“I hope that after this mission is completed, Instructor Gu can teach us more. I feel that my martial arts have soared after Instructor Gu’s guidance!”
After Mengyao Gu left quickly, the Imperial Guards finally returned to normal and started chatting in low voices. They all looked envious and admiring, just like fans seeing their idol.
They never knew that Instructor Gu was so powerful.
Originally, the martial arts displayed by Mengyao Gu were very impressive, making people feel her immense power.
However, the Imperial Guards in the Imperial Palace, except for those who got in through connections, were all cream of the crop talents.
They were not weak in martial arts and were intelligent.
Therefore, some Imperial Guards, after diligently training, felt that the distance between themselves and Mengyao Gu was shrinking!
They were about to surpass Mengyao Gu!
With such excited thoughts, the Imperial Guards felt that their efforts were finally rewarded at the moment they thought of surpassing Mengyao Gu.
However, after Mengyao Gu displayed her true strength today, the Imperial Guards’ dreams shattered into smithereens, and they knew that they were destined to look up to Mengyao Gu for the rest of their lives.
Mengyao Gu, this formidable female general, no one was more powerful than her!!!
“Brother-in-law, my sister’s aura just now was so powerful. I was afraid she would directly teach these people a lesson, even including me… But after just one glance at you, brother-in-law, my sister’s anger subsided! How did you do that? It’s truly amazing!”
While the numerous Imperial Guards were discussing, Gu Qingheng had not been idle.
After sitting down with Gu Yu in a quiet place, his little mouth immediately started babbling.
Gu Yu’s head ached from his words, thinking that his younger brother-in-law must have been the reincarnation of Tang Sanzang in his previous life!
This constant chatter was truly troublesome!
But Gu Qingheng paid no mind to what Gu Yu was thinking. His big eyes sparkled as he looked at Gu Yu, his expression of admiration very obvious.
Although he had always known that his brother-in-law could subdue his sister, he had never been so sure as he was today!
In Gu Qingheng’s eyes, his sister had just been like a primordial beast, and it had almost scared him to death!
But his brother-in-law appeared like a savior and instantly captured the primordial beast.
It was truly cool!
