Chapter 52: A Little Bit of Grievance
Perhaps the Phoenix Divine Bird was very powerful, but Gu Yu and Mengyao were even stronger.
When the Phoenix Divine Bird was about to attack Gu Yu, Mengyao directly grabbed its neck with one hand, while Gu Yu took the opportunity to strike the finishing blow, turning the Phoenix Divine Bird into a dazed old hen.
Then, Mengyao directly threw it to the ground and drew her long sword from her waist.
She was ready to butcher this chicken.
“Two adults, please stop! The Phoenix Divine Bird is extremely rare and cannot be killed!”
However, before Mengyao could make a move, Pa Yinan suddenly rushed out and knelt on the ground, blocking the Phoenix Divine Bird with her body, unwilling to see it killed just like that.
Although she hadn’t expected the Phoenix Divine Bird to do this, as its guardian, she couldn’t just watch it die in front of her.
If the Phoenix Divine Bird were to die, this Wancong Valley would be in trouble.
“Oh? I remember you said very nicely outside the cave earlier that you could guarantee that we would be completely safe inside the cave. What about what just happened!”
As Pa Yinan began to beg for mercy, Gu Yu glanced at her coldly and then stopped talking nonsense, waiting for this old hen to die.
He, Gu Yu, was not a saint. Those who dared to attack him had long ago lined up in the Underworld to be reincarnated.
Without Pa Yinan’s guidance, Gu Yu and Mengyao would not have encountered any danger. After all, these petty tricks were like voluntarily sending food to powerful people.
It was only the weak who would peck at each other with this old hen here.
However, Pa Yinan was no longer of any use, and Gu Yu had no intention of paying any more attention to her.
“I won’t say anything about you being able to guarantee safe passage through the cave. But now I don’t see you being of any use, so I won’t provide any help when the Bronze Gate opens later… If there’s danger behind the door, whether you and Gege live or die has nothing to do with me. If you want to live, wait here.”
At this moment, Gu Yu didn’t even bother to spare a glance. He directly took Mengyao and continued to move forward.
When Pa Yinan heard Gu Yu’s words, her expression changed drastically. She really regretted not preparing well for the Phoenix Divine Bird, which had dared to attack Gu Yu.
What Gu Yu had said clearly meant that without the Phoenix Divine Bird’s attack, he would protect her and Gege’s lives when the Bronze Gate opened.
But now, everything was ruined.
However, Gege had come with Gu Yu, and perhaps there was some connection that would prevent Gu Yu from abandoning them.
After all, Gu Yu was still young and at an age when he was kind-hearted.
If it were a middle-aged man, he might be extremely ruthless.
Thinking this, Pa Yinan subconsciously looked at the Phoenix Divine Bird that she was protecting behind her. She saw that it had already collapsed on the ground, dead as can be.
As soon as Gu Yu made a move, he was merciless!
Looking at the corpse of the Phoenix Divine Bird, Pa Yinan’s pupils contracted, and she immediately realized that her judgment of Gu Yu was mistaken.
Even though Gu Yu looked young on the surface, his heart was dark, and he showed no mercy to his enemies.
Even to a beast.
It was best to provoke such a person as little as possible.
Originally, Pa Yinan had thought of following them to try her luck, but after realizing that Gu Yu was indeed a ruthless person, she immediately gave up the idea of continuing to follow.
If there was really danger behind the Bronze Gate, Pa Yinan believed that Gu Yu would definitely not help them!
Although she couldn’t see what was behind the Bronze Gate, Pa Yinan looked at Gege beside her. She had no hesitation and knew that she had to protect Gege’s life.
If Gege were to die, Pa Yinan would not live alone.
“Haha, Gu Yu, why are you walking so fast!”
However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
As Gu Yu was walking forward, a voice sounded from behind, and a group of men in black quickly chased after them, subduing Pa Yinan and the other two.
When Gu Yu heard the movement behind him, he couldn’t help but curl his lips, wondering if the enemy’s head was full of holes.
Did they think they could threaten him by using those three people?
Naive.
“Wife, let’s get to the front quickly. The cave is too small now, we can’t show our skills.”
“Okay.”
After Gu Yu made his suggestion, Mengyao didn’t say a word and directly took Gu Yu and rushed forward quickly.
This made Gu Yu once again experience the feeling of flying, thinking that this feeling was quite stimulating!
However, before Gu Yu could experience it further, they arrived at their destination.
Looking at the huge Bronze Gate in front of them, Gu Yu immediately imagined those tomb-robbing novels and wondered if zombies were more powerful than them if they actually encountered one.
As he was thinking, Gu Yu’s thoughts wandered, and he immediately and vigilantly patted his cheek, refocusing his gaze on the Bronze Gate in front of him.
Novels were just novels, and tomb-robbing novels always had some exaggerated elements.
Moreover, this was not a tomb.
If Gu Yu guessed correctly, that mysterious Gu worm was behind this gate, and the construction of this cave was a sign of some people’s respect and fear for the mysterious Gu worm, and later even guardians were established.
Such a thing was not impossible. In modern times, people marry inflatable dolls, so it was possible for ancient people to work so hard for a Gu worm.
Anyway, it was someone else’s problem, not his.
Thinking this, Gu Yu looked at the Bronze Gate with curiosity and quickly released the six-colored Gu worm from his spatial artifact, preparing to test it for poison and see if the gate was poisonous.
“Hiss hiss”
When Gu Yu released the six-colored Gu worm, this worm, which was larger and fatter than before, had now turned seven colors, giving it an aura of royalty. The entire worm became majestic.
At the same time, a seven-colored mist rose, surrounding the seven-colored Gu worm.
However, when Gu Yu thought that this worm could only fart, he became furious and directly slapped the seven-colored Gu worm on the head, stunning it.
“Stop pretending. Quickly check if this door is poisonous for me. If you delay any longer, I’ll throw you into the latrine.”
Hearing Gu Yu’s threatening words and seeing that his expression was not fake, the seven-colored Gu worm, which had already transformed into the highest level, suddenly felt a little bit wronged.
It was already in its complete form, so why did Gu Yu still not treat it as a worm!
Originally, the seven-colored Gu worm had wanted to use its complete form’s kingly aura to intimidate Gu Yu and make its master treat it better, but now it seemed…
Don’t dream, just go to sleep!
