Accompanying You
Gu Li's playful smile instantly froze. His expression faded, and he stared intently into Su Yiyun's eyes.
Su Yiyun leaned back in his chair, tilted his head, and smirked.
The two of them said nothing. They just stared at each other calmly.
"Ha ….."
After a long, drawn-out stare, Gu Li's smile returned to normal.
"Brother Su, you really know how to joke. You should save this gift for Black Dragon. I'd rather not accept it. Besides, you've planned this for so long. It'd be a bit of a waste to leave it on me. "
"Hmph."
Su Yiyun snorted, but his gaze did not change at all. He still had that terrifying gaze as he stared at Gu Li and said, "You're right, Gu Li.
"What's there to feel pity about? It's already come to this. I can't be bothered to keep up the pretense. You've always been at odds with Zichen. You and Black Dragon are actually a multiple-choice question. Choosing either one would be a perfect answer. "
Gu Li's expression instantly darkened.
"Brother Su, are you serious?"
"What do you think?"
Su Yiyun's expression was still terrifyingly calm. After staring at each other for a while, Gu Li shrank back.
Although he didn't say anything, the way he avoided Gu Li's gaze showed that he was truly afraid.
"It's good that you're afraid, so don't provoke me anymore. Got it? Sometimes, being smart isn't a good thing. Too smart people have short lives. Do you understand? I know you have someone protecting you. But the barefoot isn't afraid of the barefoot. I'm already at the end of my rope. Even if I get rid of you, so what if your backer comes out and kills me? I'm all alone. If you don't believe me, you're welcome to try me. "
"Yiyun, how are you feeling? Are you feeling unwell?"
At that moment, Li Min 'e walked over from behind.
Su Yiyun shot Gu Li a warning glance, then looked away. He smiled warmly at her and shook his head.
"Everything's fine."
"That's good."
Li Min 'e let out a sigh of relief. For the past few days, she'd been asking about him every hour, and she'd personally used her spiritual energy to check his condition.
Then she retracted her gaze and snorted at Gu Li.
"I saw the two of you talking about something just now. You didn't seem to be in a good mood. Did he do something to you?"
Whenever she saw Gu Li, Li Min 'e couldn't help but recall Hua Kui's tragic death. Her hatred only grew.
If Black Dragon hadn't warned her not to clash with Gu Li, she would have attacked him long ago.
"How about it, Brother Su? How would I dare?" Gu Li smiled wryly. "Brother Su, I'm already pretty good. Don't you think so, Brother Su?"
"Min 'e, don't overthink things. Gu Li wouldn't dare do anything to me."
Li Min 'e patted the arm on the chair and comforted her softly, then glared hatefully at Gu Li without saying anything else.
"How was it? Did we suffer heavy casualties?" Su Yiyun changed the topic. Li Min 'e answered every question, "It's very serious. We've lost at least 60% of our people. Fortunately, the ones left behind are the elites of the elites, so they still have the strength to fight. "
"Brother Su." Black Dragon also walked over at this moment.
"You've taken care of everything?" asked Su Yiyun.
"Mm. I've already sent people to open up the entrance to the valley and let the wounded return to recover. As for the ones left behind, I'm preparing to lead them into the Beast Region. Time is of the essence, so I need to march right away. Brother Su, you're unwell. How about I let Min 'e take you back to rest? "
Black Dragon frowned deeply. They'd already come this far; he couldn't possibly back down now.
The demons' forces had already suffered a steep decline. If they gave the Beast Region time to prepare, they'd grow stronger and weaker. That wouldn't be a good thing for him.
The Immortal Region, Underworld, and Heavenly Court were all in chaos. He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to take over the Beast Region, then make adjustments and decide which holy land to attack.
Furthermore, he still had to avenge this grudge.
He no longer wanted Ye Zichen to live even a second longer than necessary.
"Forget it. You can send the wounded back, but since I'm already here, I might as well go with you. The Beast Region has many experts. If I stay, I can help you. There's no need for you to send anyone to take care of me. Life and death are up to fate. If I really die here, that might just be my fate. "
Su Yiyun's voice was weak. Black Dragon hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Alright.
Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Su. "
"No problem." Su Yiyun waved at Black Dragon, but his expression suddenly froze. He looked at Gu Li and said, "remember what I just said. I've been watching you from behind."
Gu Li's smile instantly froze. Black Dragon looked at the two of them in bewilderment.
"This ….."
"It's nothing. Let's march."
Su Yiyun waved his hand calmly, but his gaze remained fixed on Gu Li. His gaze never left him for a moment.
When he sensed Black Dragon's gaze, Gu Li smiled stiffly.
"Your Excellency Black Dragon, let's march."
Ye Zichen's expression had been grave ever since he'd returned to the Dragon Clan after the ambush. After a brief conversation with the four Sacred Beast clan heads, he said he'd leave.
When the clan heads noticed his mood, they didn't try to keep him.
Ye Zichen sat desolately in the courtyard, smoking a cigarette. Images replayed in his mind over and over again.
Some were from the Modern Realm, and some were from the Three Realms.
As the images overlapped, Ye Zichen couldn't help but arch his brows and sigh. He had no idea that his cigarette was already half-burnt before he'd even taken a puff.
"Zichen."
Ye Zichen heard a murmur. He looked up and saw Su Yan standing in front of him, dressed in a white dress.
Her pretty face was etched with worry. Earlier, she'd noticed Ye Zichen's expression. She was truly worried, so she'd spoken to Su Liu 'er and the four Sacred Beast clan heads about it.
There was no point in staying. The clan heads all nodded. Su Liu 'er, on the other hand, had hesitated, but Su Zhu had convinced her. She'd left the hall to find Ye Zichen.
"Why are you here? That's right," said Su Liu 'er, pouting. She looked adorable.
"What? Are you looking down on me?" Su Yan pouted angrily. She looked adorable.
"How could that be?" Ye Zichen chuckled. "Why didn't you go play with Keke? Why did you come to my run-down house?"
"I haven't seen Keke in a long time." Su Yan pursed her lips, then sighed. "Zichen, do you know how long it's been since we sat down and had a heart-to-heart chat?"
Instantly, Su Yan's tone became desolate.
Sensing the change in her mood, Ye Zichen could only smile apologetically.
"I'm sorry."
"It's nothing. I understand," said Su Yan with a gentle smile.
She knew how tired Ye Zichen was right now. She didn't want him to worry because of her.
Soon after, she recalled the reason for her visit and spoke.
"Earlier, you weren't in a particularly good mood. What's wrong?"
"I saw your big brother just now."
"My big brother?" Su Yan arched her brows in surprise, then froze. "You mean …."
