Just when Gu Chen and his gang split into three groups and started to move, a carriage just stopped outside Zhenwu Academy.
An elegant woman got out of the carriage with the help of a pretty maid, followed by a plain-looking female guard with a bit of sternness between her brows.
The three of them entered the academy together, and the female guard on the way kept vigilant about everything around them.
"Miss Yang, this is a college, don't be too nervous, otherwise it will easily attract suspicion."
The woman said calmly. After hearing the words, Yang Zhen realized that she had overreacted, and shook her head with a wry smile.
"Ma'am is right, I've really lost my mind these past few days."
As the former golden killer of the Heavenly Court, Yang Zhen was originally very good at disguising, but since the Bawang made a fuss at the new emperor's enthronement ceremony a few days ago and was wanted by the whole continent, she has become extremely nervous.
The current situation has changed. With the return of the Overlord, the situation has become even more difficult than when the Heavenly Court just perished, and her escort mission has become even heavier.
"Thank you so much, Miss Yang, for the past six months. Heaven is gone, but you are still guarding Xiaoqiu and me." Shen Yushu said with emotion.
"Ma'am, you don't have to be polite. Ma'am has learned a lot. Being by your side has benefited me a lot."
Yang Zhen said hastily.
In the beginning, she only acted as a guard by his mother's side to make friends with Gu Daozi, but after getting along with him in the past six months, she gradually developed a heart of respect for her.
In her eyes, this woman can be called a legend. Although she is unarmed, she is knowledgeable about heaven and man, and has a wide knowledge of ancient and modern times.
In the past, she thought that a scholar full of bookishness was useless, and would die if he encountered an enemy, but ever since she saw Mrs. Gu subdue a terrifying monster with the words of a sage in a certain mountain, she was shocked by it, Changed view.
Up to now, her following Shen Yushu is not just entrusted by the Overlord, but a subconscious decision in her heart.
"Ma'am, why did we come to Zhenwu Academy? There are so many people here, it would be bad if someone found out."
Xiao Qiu whispered beside her, with a worried look on her brows.
Ever since she saw her son's arrest warrant in the city where she stayed yesterday, she has lost the innocence of the past.
"Xiaoqiu, didn't you say yesterday that you were afraid that the young master would be alone and helpless, and you wanted to go find him?"
Shen Yushu smiled.
"That's right, the young master is wanted by the whole world right now, and the whole world will bully him. It must be very difficult for him. Xiao Qiu is so worried about him."
Xiaoqiu murmured while her eyes were red. "It's just that Xiaoqiu doesn't know anything, so she can't help the young master at all."
"We came to Zhenwu Academy to find help for the young master."
Shen Yushu gently rubbed Xiaoqiu's head.
...
Ye Qingshuang stayed in her room, trying to get rid of many chaotic thoughts, and cultivated in concentration.
But no matter how she tried, the face of a man would always appear in her mind, making her uneasy and greatly reducing the efficiency of her cultivation.
This situation has been going on for many days, since she saw Huangfu Wuji's enthronement ceremony through the water mirror stone.
At the enthronement ceremony that everyone was looking forward to, the young man declared war on the new emperor and the whole world. That overwhelming courage was deeply imprinted in her heart.
She thought he was dead, and she was slowly accepting this reality in her heart, but unexpectedly he returned unexpectedly, just like the most upright hero in her ideals.
"what happened……"
Ye Qingshuang was upset, and since that day, she has been unable to practice seriously.
In the past six months, after practicing hard, she finally stepped into the king realm, and now she is the top student of Zhenwu Academy.
But these didn't bring her any sense of accomplishment, and she knew that these auras were insignificant compared to him.
"Rewarding hundreds of cities and conferring princely titles, such a huge reward will definitely attract a lot of experts. He is weak now, so I don't know if he can handle it?"
"I think what are these doing? I have nothing to do with him, just a stranger."
Ye Qingshuang gritted her white teeth lightly, she found that she had become extremely contradictory, and because of this contradiction, she was upset these days, as if she was about to go crazy.
"Qingshuang, I have your visitor."
At this time, Mu Ziyu suddenly knocked on the door of Ye Qingshuang's room.
"Who is it? I don't want to see you." Ye Qingshuang recovered from the thoughts that were constantly cutting and chaotic.
"Well, it's a woman with a very extraordinary conversation. She said her surname is Shen."
After Mu Ziyu finished answering, Ye Qingshuang was shocked!
...
In her small courtyard, Ye Qingshuang saw Shen Yushu with a complicated expression.
The others were sent away, and only the two of them were talking alone at the moment.
"Madam Gu, I didn't expect you to come to me."
Ye Qingshuang said softly, seeing this woman who almost became her mother-in-law again, she felt mixed feelings in her heart.
"You, do you have any news about Gu Chen?"
It took a while before she mustered up the courage to take the initiative to ask about Gu Chen.
"The whole world is arresting my son now, Miss Ye should know about this, right?"
Shen Yushu looked at Ye Qingshuang with deep meaning in his eyes.
Ye Qingshuang nodded.
"I'm here today for nothing else, but to want Ms. Ye to fulfill the promise she made with me in the past."
Shen Yushu got straight to the point.
Ye Qingshuang's expression froze.
"Back then in the Wuchen Sect, you and I agreed that if Chen'er won you at the Ascension of the Dragon Ceremony, you would be his maid. I don't know if this counts?"
"Now Chen'er is lonely and needs help. I need you to do something. Are you willing to help?"
After Shen Yushu finished speaking, he silently looked at Ye Qingshuang.
Ye Qingshuang stayed on the spot and didn't speak for a long time.
"Madam Gu, don't you dislike me?"
It took Ye Qingshuang a long time to raise her head, her eyes were moist.
When Shen Yushu asked her to fulfill the old agreement, she suddenly understood the reason why she had been restless these days.
She didn't want to stay in Zhenwu Academy anymore, she wanted to rush to that man's side, even if she had to go to hell with him.
It's just that her arrogance does not allow her to do this, and she is also afraid that the man will reject her and hate herself.
Because of this contradiction, she suffered a lot.
But after Shen Yushu asked, all of this suddenly became a matter of course.
She seemed to have found an excuse for herself, and finally let go of her guard.
"In the past, you and Chen'er were nothing more than boys and girls fighting, but now you have grown up. I still remember that when you were young, you used to follow behind Chen'er's ass, calling him brother Chen..."
Shen Yushu looked at Ye Qingshuang softly.
Ye Qingshuang's tears could no longer be stopped at this moment, rolling out, her words choked with sobs.
"Madam Gu, I am willing, I am willing to abide by our agreement! Even if it is hell, I want to follow him!"
At this moment, Ye Qingshuang gave up all her arrogance, just to have a name, to be able to stand by that man's side like everyone else.
