"Oh right, where did Big Brother Shanhe and the others go?" Gu Qianqian asked anxiously.
She had just returned and wanted to find Gu Shanhe and Gu Shanqing. She panicked when she couldn't find them.
Chen Zhifu and the others retracted their hostility.
Xiao Yang explained gently, "They wanted to save you. They should be back soon."
As soon as he said that, a few people flew over from another direction. They were Gu Shanhe, Gu Shanqing, and the others.
"Big Brother Shanhe, Big Brother Shanqing." Gu Qianqian heaved a sigh of relief when she saw them return. She smiled happily and relaxed.
"Eh? Qianqian, why are you here? Weren't you captured by Cao Zhi? "Gu Shanqing asked in surprise. Then, he was puzzled.
Their group had followed the direction that Cao Zhi had fled in. Unfortunately, they had chased in the wrong direction. Cao Zhi was too cunning. He had actually set up new traces of his escape and lured them in another direction. They had returned empty-handed.
On the way back, they were all worried about Gu Qianqian. They were afraid that something had happened to Gu Qianqian.
The moment they saw that Gu Qianqian was safe and sound, they all heaved a sigh of relief. Their depressed mood also relaxed a lot.
Gu Qianqian could only explain with a smile, "Cao Zhi was killed by Xiao Yang's Bloodthirsty Ice Silkworm. That's why I was able to return safely. Cao Zhi's poisoned corpse is over there. It's great to see you all. You have to thank Xiao Yang and the others for me."
Gu Shanhe, Gu Shanqing, and the others looked at each other with suspicion.
They didn't believe that there was such a coincidence. If Xiao Yang could kill Cao Zhi, he would have done so long ago. Why would he wait until Gu Qianqian was captured?
Therefore, one of them flew out and headed in the direction Gu Qianqian had pointed.
Not long after, Cao Zhi's pitch-black, lifeless body was brought back by that person.
Hiss, hiss, hiss.
Seeing Cao Zhi's tragic death, they couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
Even Li Qinghe, Chen Zhifu, and Lan Jiaoye were shocked. Cao Zhi's death was too cruel.
Now that the truth was out, there was nothing to argue about.
Gu Shanhe, Gu Shanqing, and the others once again clasped their fists towards Xiao Yang and the others and said gratefully, "Thank you, dear friends. It was all our fault before. This time, we are also very grateful for your help. This is a token of our appreciation, please accept it."
They each took out some gifts and placed them into a storage ring. Then, they circulated their cultivation and hovered in front of Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang was naturally not polite. After receiving the storage ring, he swept a glance over the items inside. Most of them were spirit stones, and there were also a few decent medicinal pills. Unfortunately, they were not of much use to him. He handed them over to Lan Jiaoye and said, "You guys decide how to split them."
"Hoyer, thank you, cousin. I know you're the best." Lan Jiaoye was very excited. She grabbed the storage ring that Xiao Yang handed over and took out the items inside without any ladylike image. Then, she divided them between Li Qinghe and Chen Zhifu.
Chen Zhifu was grinning from ear to ear. First, Cao Zhi was killed. Second, he had to clear his name. Third, he had entered Xiao Yang's eyes. In the future, with Xiao Yang's protection, he would have more confidence.
Not far away, Huzi and the others who were watching had envy in their eyes. Their hearts were filled with regret and pity.
If they had chosen Xiao Yang, perhaps their situation would have been much better. Now, there was only bitterness. They all knew that in this lifetime, they would never be able to enter the hearts of Chen Zhifu and Xiao Yang again.
After Gu Shanhe and the others saw Xiao Yang and the others accept the gifts, they all heaved a sigh of relief. They reintroduced themselves to Xiao Yang and suggested that they walk together.
Xiao Yang naturally had no objections. Fiery Bird couldn't fit so many people, so he kept Fiery Bird and walked with the others.
Huzi and the others who came from Wuyang City wanted to take the opportunity to get closer to Gu Cheng's people. However, because Gu Cheng's people were related to Xiao Yang, Chen Zhifu, Li Qinghe, and Lan Jiaoye, they deliberately gave Huzi and the others the cold shoulder.
Huzi and the others asked for a snub, so they could only leave.
The group continued on their way.
Because Xiao Yang had saved her, Gu Qianqian was very grateful to Xiao Yang. She practically stuck to Xiao Yang's side and talked and laughed with Xiao Yang. She mostly talked about interesting things that happened during her cultivation. This made Lan Jiaoye feel a sense of crisis. If she didn't perform well, Xiao Yang might be snatched away by Gu Qianqian.
Then, she immediately held Xiao Yang's hand and raised her head high, revealing a proud look, like a rooster that had won a fight. She was announcing that Xiao Yang was hers. This was a territorial right that could not be violated.
Gu Qianqian secretly gritted her teeth and snorted in her heart. As a member of the opposite sex, she obviously knew what Lan Jiaoye meant. It was nothing more than saying that Xiao Yang's heart already belonged to someone else and that she shouldn't act coquettishly.
However, which man in the world wasn't fickle? His heart already belonged to someone else, so he definitely wouldn't mind having one more.
Gu Qianqian comforted herself and then moved closer to Xiao Yang. She begged, "Big brother Xiao Yang, your cultivation is very profound and your realm is very high. If you have time along the way, can you give me some pointers on my cultivation? I beg you. "
She also took out a girl's trump card and acted coquettishly. She looked at Xiao Yang affectionately and cutely, and there was even a hint of weak hope in her eyes. Anyone who looked at her couldn't help but feel pity for her. It was simply impossible for anyone to reject her.
Especially her pair of slightly aggrieved eyes, as well as her delicate and pitiful appearance, it almost broke his heart.
Gu Shanqing, Gu Shanhe, and the others saw this and couldn't help but be filled with anger. They clenched their fists and were very dissatisfied with Xiao Yang.
One had to know that Gu Qianqian was someone from Gu Cheng and also someone they liked. Normally, Gu Qianqian treated them coldly. But now, she was completely infatuated with Xiao Yang and wanted nothing more than to give herself to Xiao Yang. This was very difficult for them to accept.
Li Qinghe and Chen Zhifu secretly formed a team. Sometimes they would look at the two women, sometimes they would look at Gu Shanhe, Gu Shanqing, and the others' expressions. They clicked their tongues and said, "Let's go further away so we don't get burned by the flames of war."
After walking for less than half a day, Gu Shanhe, Gu Shanqing, and the others couldn't watch any longer. They hurriedly walked forward and walked side by side with Xiao Yang. They cupped their fists and said, "Brother Xiao Yang, we still have some matters to take care of, so you guys go first. We'll meet up at the Poison Sect."
Then he turned to Gu Qianqian and smiled, "Qianqian, why don't we let Brother Xiao Yang and the others go first? We'll catch up later."
If this continued, Gu Qianqian would definitely be taken away by Xiao Yang. None of them would be willing to accept that.
