C130

The ground was getting wet, like a wet dawn after a rainstorm, as the black blanket spread over the air that had almost been covered by the insects.

Gu Hua Wei Wei decided not to follow Yu Han. If her guess was right, the rest of the journey would be more humid.

This also meant that they might encounter the greatest danger!

"Senior brother Yu, we can't keep going forward." The girl said confidently, "Let's find a place to rest first. We can decide on the next day when senior is awake."

If he was alone, he would have been fine. Now that New Deer City was heavily injured, Gu Hua Wei was a girl. If he continued walking like this, he would probably be exhausted by the time dawn breaks.

Gu Hua Wei took out his old bedding from the purple jade ring (from the thatched cottage). Yu Han took out some of the top quality wood from his storage bag, and without caring about how precious the wood was, he placed it on the slightly moist ground. Gu Hua Wei laid the bedding on top of the ground, and then placed the unconscious New Deer City on top of the bed.

Yu Han sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the sky which was getting darker and darker outside of the tent. He placed the Golden Glazed Light Lamp on the side, obviously the formation inside the lamp could no longer be used.

"Junior-apprentice Sister, you rest first, I'll keep watch." As a young man who had just revealed his manliness, he really wanted to show it.

Miss Gu was not a hypocritical person, not to mention that this eight year old little body had reached the limit of what she could endure.

Thinking of this, Miss Gu leaned against New Deer City and closed her eyes to rest.

She did not dare to fall asleep. In the end, she was just a girl who did not feel safe at all.

His spiritual sense, however, did not dare to relax for even a moment as he gazed outside the tent, gently gazing in Gu Hua Wei's direction. The face of the eight-year-old girl was bright white, her eyelids slightly lidded, her long eyelashes curled into an exceptionally beautiful fan, her delicate nose was perked up, and the corners of her pink lips were slightly parted. Her face was calm, as if no matter what happened in this world, it would not stir her heart.

That was out of his reach.

Yes, unreachable.

A faint, bitter smile appeared on Yu Han's face. He had thought that there would never be anything in this world that he could not obtain. He was the pride of the heavens, so how could there not be? But at this moment, he came to a sudden realization.

In the tranquil night, the youth's eyes were deep and serene, with an indescribable sadness in them.

Gu Hua's spiritual sense did not dare to remain on Yu Han's face. She did not want to discover any extraordinary things. After all, some things were better left unsaid.

The darkest midnight had finally come. In the quiet forest, the unconscious boy was frowning. He didn't know what was bothering him. The air was filled with a faint, intoxicating fragrance.

The youth guarding the door suddenly felt a bit tired. He couldn't stay awake for a while because of the support of his willpower. He only wanted to have a good dream.

The girl gently opened her eyes and saw the boy sleeping soundly.

It was a state of contentment and exhaustion.

Gu Hua shouted Yu Han's name softly. When she realized that it was no longer possible for Yu Han to wake up, she turned her head to catch her breath and saw Lu Cheng waking up with a face full of pain!

"Senior?" Lu Cheng's face was covered in sweat. It was unknown if it was due to the fragrance in the air that caused his pale lips to bleed profusely from being bitten.

The weak youth seemed exceptionally strange in the tranquil night.

Gu Hua reached out her hand to touch him, but before she could do so, the youth's ice-cold gaze caused her to halt in her tracks.

"Senior Brother, what's wrong?" Gu Hua Wei tried to calm herself down.

Lu Cheng coughed as blood dripped from his lower jaw. His eyes were firmly fixed on Gu Hua Wei's body, as if he was looking through her at someone.

After a very long time, when Yuhan's sound of sleeping finally came, Gu Hua was finally able to hear the youth's cold voice. He said, "Who the hell are you?"

Gu Hua's heart skipped a beat!

The youth's voice had already continued, "You are not her." His eyes were focused on her, not wanting to miss a single emotion from her. "I know her, she's not like you."

Gu Hua tightly clenched her hands, trying to find her calm voice, "Senior Brother, who are you talking about?"

"You know that."

"Senior brother, are you bewitched …" Gu Hua braced herself. She definitely could not admit it, because it was her last secret.

"When I met her when I was seventeen, she was at the west side of Jade Bamboo Peak on the precipice. I remember that day very clearly." "She was bullied by her senior sister from the same sect. In the end, she jumped off the cliff and met me."

Seventeen years old …

New Deer City was only sixteen this year, how could they be seventeen?!

But, he mentioned his previous seventeen years!

"She had five spiritual roots, but she accompanied me for a whole ten years."

Ten years!

Gu Hua Wei's finger trembled slightly. This was not mentioned in the novel. It had to do with the original owner's ten years, from the age of eight to the age of eighteen. In that ten years, where had she gone to?

The original owner had met New Deer City, or perhaps it could be said to be the Blind Deer City.

In order to prevent me from appearing in public and disgracing myself, as well as making it inhumane to expel me from my sect, he secretly sent a disciple to imprison me, a useless person, at the absolute peak of Ju Zhu Mountain. The word is that I was already cultivating in seclusion at the peak of Ju Zhu Mountain, but the truth is that I no longer cared about my life. And then he laughed at himself.

Gu Hua gazed at the sickly youth. For the first time, his smile had lost all pretense. It was clear and shallow, and he looked like an old man who had seen through the coolness of time.

She suddenly felt sad.

"And then?" At this moment, denying it or admitting it was already too much of an affectation. It was obvious that both New Deer City and she did not like fomenting.

"One day, after repelling the wave of butterflies, I met her who had fallen into the lake from the top of the mountain.

It went without saying that 'she' was referring to him.

"The lake is overgrown with poison, and the Savage Python is wreaking havoc here. I originally didn't plan to save her, but this world really makes me feel lonely." He was so lonely that he didn't even have someone to talk to.
