Demon King, Where To Escape - C221
“Do you want to eat candied fruits?” After passing by the candied fruits stall, Gu Lang asked the girl who had always been well-behaved, “If you want to eat, then brother will bring it over for you.” Saying that, he reached out his hand to pick up a string of candied fruits for Gu Hua.
Gu Hua’s pupils constricted as she grabbed his wrist. She had an ominous premonition, “No, I won’t eat it.”
A trace of a smile flashed across Gu Lang’s eyes. He patted Gu Hua’s head and said, “Don’t be shy.”
Gu Hua lightly asked: Who’s shy?!
“Let’s go.” Gu Ming glanced at Gu Lang with a warning gaze, then said coldly, “It’s best if you don’t touch anything here.”
“Big brother, you asked the wrong person.” “I like to eat candied fruits the most, okay?” He looked at the candied fruits that no one was guarding. Since there was no one guarding them, he could take them at will. But second brother, can you not look at me with hatred in your little eyes?
Gu Jue’s pinky moved before pulling Gu Hua Wei’s hand and continuing forward.
Passing through beautiful streets, they finally arrived at the main hall of the city. It was a very big house, comparable to the Golden Tide Palace of the Chen Nation. Golden Tide Palace was the royal palace of the Chen Nation.
The entire hall appeared in their eyes. The white jade floor, the garret built from purple sandalwood, and the tools forged from meteorite iron, from the floor to the decorations, all of these were exquisite and precious. From the main hall to the side hall, they were all constructed with precious treasures.
“Let’s go,” Gu Ming was the first to recover his senses and walk inside. Gu Hua Wei followed closely behind, Gu Jue curiously wanted to touch the rosewood on the Zhu Clan’s gate with his hand, but he was half-dead from a spiritual power from Gu Lang behind him, so he obediently followed behind Gu Hua Wei.
The things inside the pavilion, from rare flowers and plants to gold and silver jewelry, from the zither, chess and calligraphy to cosmetics, all of these things were things that Gu Hua Wei and the others had to look at. None of them were interested in these things, not even the exquisite hairpins that they loved so much that they couldn’t even make Gu Hua glance back, not to mention other things like this.
The four of them were successful. They finally arrived at the treasury in the city, and Gu Hua’s divine sense reached its destination.
“This is the last place.” Gu Ming smiled without saying a word. He was about to push open the Zhu Clan’s door to the treasury when Gu Hua cried out involuntarily, “Wait!”
Gu Ming retracted his hand, and looked at her with a pair of clear and serene eyes. “What’s wrong?”
Gu Hua Wei Wei took out a low rank soul stone and handed it to him. “Use this.”
When her spiritual sense arrived here, the door was obviously open. She could see everything inside from afar, but now that she came here, the door was closed. Why? There was clearly no one here …
“I’ve been here slightly before.” Gu Lang guessed for a moment, then looked at Gu Hua Wei, who nodded slightly.
“There might be Formation Apertures here, but …” She remembered that the last time she had left was just the thick smell of blood. “We have to be careful.”
“Alright.” Seeing Miss Gu’s small face as though he was about to face a great enemy, Gu Ming could not help but soften. He wrapped the spiritual power around the spiritual stone that Gu Hua Wei Wei Wei Wei had given him and fiercely shot it towards the room’s door that was just inches away from him! He retreated a few steps at once!
The Zhu Clan had been easily opened by a dozen Spirit Stones, just like how Gu Hua had seen it before. Countless treasures had appeared in front of everyone.
Precious herbs, supreme immortal pills, supreme magic items, and rare spirit stones were displayed on a wooden shelf made of purple sandalwood. They emitted the charm of a unique treasure, causing one’s heart to be filled with desire.
Everything here was very tempting. As long as a cultivator didn’t leave, they would be able to easily obtain it. With it in front of them, no matter how pure and uninterested they were, they couldn’t help but be moved.
“Big Brother, it’s an Immortal Returning Pill!”
Gu Jue’s eyes wandered around the treasury once before his eyes suddenly lit up. He let go of Gu Hua Wei’s hand and ran towards the last row, which was filled with elixirs. His face was full of excitement. He had finally found the Celestial Restoration Pill!
He almost couldn’t help but reach out to take the pill bottle labeled “Celestial Restoration Pill”.
“No!” Gu Hua shouted loudly. The faint premonition in her head was finally confirmed at this moment, but why couldn’t she say it out loud!
Gu Ming drew the long sword from his waist, and the cold light from the long sword pierced the eyes as it shot out from Gu Ming’s palm and sped towards Gu Jue. In an instant, it had already slashed towards Gu Jue’s hand, which was about to reach for the medicine bottle.
“Ah Jue, come here.” Gu Lang, who was standing at the side, shouted with a gloomy face, “Don’t run around again next time.”
Gu Jue guiltily touched his hand that was on the verge of being injured by the longsword. He unwillingly glanced at the enticing Immortal Returning Pill that was still arranged on the rosewood shelf and returned to Gu Hua Wei’s side.
Gu Ming sheathed his sword and disdainfully glanced at Gu Jue as he coldly said, “Next time, if you don’t listen, I’ll cut off your hand.”
His voice was completely silent, without even the slightest hint of a joke. Gu Hua silently glanced at the bowing Gu Jue. When an elder brother faced his younger brother, was he really going to break his arms and legs?
“I got it,” Gu Juetian pursed his lips, “Next time, it won’t be Second Brother.”
Gu Ming snorted lightly in response.
Gu Hua lightly pulled Gu Jue’s hand and squeezed it to give this youth some comfort. This young man had two big brothers and they were all quite pitiful.
“Let’s go, there’s nothing special here.” Gu Lang raised his hand to pat Gu Jue’s shoulder and said in a low voice, “There will definitely be Immortal Returning Pills in the future. I can still afford to wait, but they definitely aren’t things of unknown origin.”
Gu Jue blinked and a flash of water appeared. He pursed his lips, feeling a bit wronged. “Big Brother, I’m sorry. I was too anxious …”
“Nothing.” Gu Lang retracted his hand and pinched Gu Wei Wei Wei who had been looking at them all this while, regaining his usual stupidity. “Hurry and comfort that little fellow A-Jue …”
Gu Hua Wei: (?) (?)
Gu Hua Wei tightly gripped Gu Jue’s hand and secretly decided that if he could safely return to the Cloud Sect in the future, he would definitely have the Jindan Stage Elder refine a batch of Immortal Returning Pills for him to bring to Gu Jue. Although he didn’t know what they would use it for, he would still urgently use it.
