Chapter 343: Reunion of Husband and Wife!
Chapter 343: Reunion of Husband and Wife!
"Master, rest assured, from now on, Caier will strictly restrain our people. Until we have sufficient strength, we will never again provoke conflict with the Jia Ma Empire!" Queen Medusa said with trepidation.
"Hmm, I trust you will manage this well," Gu He nodded, then added a reminder, "Caier, if the Snake-People Tribe truly wishes to escape the current harsh living conditions, you don't necessarily have to attack human empires. The vast resources of the Demon Beast Mountain Range are also plentiful and could be a good place to live."
Upon hearing Gu He's reminder, Queen Medusa fell into deep thought, hesitantly replying, "Master, I will remember what you said, but the edges of the Demon Beast Mountain Range are fortified by major empires. If we pass through, I'm afraid that..."
"These are matters you will have to negotiate yourself. However, the most important thing is to improve your own strength. Once you are powerful, your bargaining power will increase."
After saying this, Gu He bid farewell to Queen Medusa, "You should consider it carefully; I must take my leave now."
"Disciple respectfully sends off Master!"
Knowing that Gu He was determined to leave, Queen Medusa did not try to detain him any further.
Soon after, under Queen Medusa's watchful eyes, the space around Gu He distorted, and he vanished before her eyes.
"Hua She'er, you may come in now!"
After Gu He left, Queen Medusa summoned her personal Snake-People guards, her demeanor reverting to that of the noble and aloof Queen.
Upon hearing her call, Hua She'er quickly led the guards into the temple.
...
Meanwhile, after leaving the Snake-People's temple, Gu He planned to return to the Yun Lan Sect.
"I've been out for quite a long time. I wonder how Yun'er is doing at the Yun Lan Sect!" Standing on the back of the Black Scale Ice Serpent, a beautiful figure in green kept appearing in Gu He's mind.
Not long after, the figure Gu He had been thinking about suddenly appeared at the edge of the Tagor Desert, high above the skies outside Stone Desert City.
Due to the recent invasion by the Snake-People army, the soldiers and civilians of Stone Desert City were highly vigilant. As they saw the rapidly approaching green light, many soldiers drew their weapons and quickly sent someone to notify Liu Ling.
"Lord Kasida, there seems to be an unknown strong individual outside the city; please quickly inform Commander Liu!"
A soldier hurried from the city wall to the headquarters of the Eldest Brother Mercenary Group. But just as he spoke to Kasida, the green figure had already appeared in the sky not far from their base.
"Sheโs already here!" The soldier pointed to the sky in terror.
Kasida and the mercenaries beside him looked up.
Yun Yun's arrival immediately caused some commotion in the city.
At this moment, within Liu Ling's courtyard at the headquarters of the Eldest Brother Mercenary Group, a terrifying surge of energy suddenly erupted. The energy barrier surrounding the courtyard shattered with a loud crash.
"It's Liu Ling! He actually broke through to Dou King!"
In the sky, Yun Yun was astonished by the sudden appearance of the young figure soaring upward. She quickly flapped her green wings and flew towards the courtyard.
"I want to see who dares to trespass on..."
"Why is Masterโs wife here!"
Seeing the approaching green figure, Liu Ling's expression froze, and he quickly swallowed the words he was about to say.
"Liu Ling greets Master's wife!" Liu Ling, who had also taken to the air, respectfully saluted Yun Yun.
Although the relationship between Yun Yun and Gu He had not been made public, Liu Ling had already learned of it from Gu He.
At this moment, a hint of a silly smile appeared on the face of Xiao Jin, who was beside Liu Ling. In a somewhat childish voice, he called out, "Xiao Jin greets Mistress!"
"Liu Ling, you've made great progress in your strength recently!"
As she approached, Yun Yun wasn't embarrassed by Liu Ling addressing her as "Master's wife." Instead, she smiled calmly and praised him. Then, she curiously glanced at the golden-haired boy beside Liu Ling.
"Little one, who are you? Why did you call me Mistress?" Yun Yun asked with a light laugh.
"Mistress, I am Xiao Jin, Master's pet. Master sent me out to protect Brother Liu!" Xiao Jin replied truthfully to Yun Yun's question.
Upon hearing Xiao Jin's words, Yun Yun quickly guessed that the "Master" he referred to was Gu He. She hurriedly asked, "Where is your Master now?"
"Where Master went... I don't know where Master is going!" Xiao Jin shook his head, looking somewhat helplessly at Liu Ling.
"Master's wife, wasn't Master always in the sect? Did he not inform you before leaving this time?" Liu Ling asked in confusion.
"After arranging for you three to go out for training, your Master left as well and hasn't returned yet!" Yun Yun explained.
"So, Master has been away for so long!"
"But Master was here just a few days ago..."
Hearing Yun Yun's words, Liu Ling recounted everything about Gu He's visit.
"You mean, this Void Jade Talisman can really summon my husband?"
After listening to Liu Ling's explanation, Yun Yun murmured softly.
Then, a Void Jade Talisman swiftly appeared in her hand.
"Yes, but the projection summoned by this talisman can only stay for half an hour at most!" Liu Ling nodded and explained.
"Half an hour, huh!"
Upon receiving Liu Ling's confirmation, Yun Yun no longer hesitated. She gently applied force with her palm and crushed the purple talisman.
As soon as Yun Yun crushed the Void Jade Talisman, Gu He's projection immediately descended from the sky.
"Yun'er, what are you doing here!"
Before the projection arrived, Gu He thought Liu Ling was in danger again. But as soon as he saw Yun Yun's figure, his furrowed brows quickly relaxed. Overjoyed, he walked up to Yun Yun, reaching out to caress her face. If Liu Ling and Xiao Jin weren't present, Gu He would have embraced her without hesitation.
"Yun'er, I was just thinking about you. I can't believe you happened to crush the Void Jade Talisman at this moment. It seems our thoughts were really in sync," Gu He said with a smile as he noticed Yun Yun's silence and the tears welling up in her eyes.
"Husband, is this your true form?"
Feeling the warmth of the hand on her cheek, Yun Yun raised her hand to tightly grasp it.
"No, this is just a projection! My true form was originally on its way to the Yun Lan Sect, but since I knew you were here, I naturally came here first," Gu He shook his head and explained.
"Xiao Jin, stop staring; let's go!"
Seeing Yun Yun and Gu He leaning close to each other, Liu Ling sensibly took Xiao Jin's hand and flew downward.
