"Sister!"
"Brother!"
When Gu Zheng appeared with Yan Ge, Yan Yue, who was stroking the kitten, was shocked. However, when she saw Yan Ge, she was still stunned. It was only when Yan Ge couldn't help but speak that she came back to her senses.
"I'll give you some time. I'm going out for a while. I'll be back soon." Gu Zheng picked up the kitten and said to avoid arousing suspicion.
Although he said he was leaving, in fact, Gu Zheng appeared outside the cabin in a flash. As long as he was willing, everything about the other party would be exposed. However, he wasn't so bored as to stay here and check on the kitten's injuries to see how much she had recovered. He would return when it was about time.
On the other side, Yan Ge and Yan Yue's eyes were already brimming with tears. They never thought that there would be a day when they would meet again.
Yan Ge felt that it would take a very long time for him to see his sister. During this time, he still had to serve that Lord Gu.
After the first deal, there was a second one. As long as he wanted Gu Zheng to treat his sister, he was willing to do it no matter how long it took. No matter what orders Gu Zheng gave him later, he had no choice at all.
He even thought of the worst. Did Gu Zheng have some method to slow down and reduce his sister's injuries? However, he couldn't treat his sister at all. Even if there was only a trace of hope, he wouldn't give up.
However, he didn't expect that after such a short period of time, his sister would be completely healed. There weren't any injuries left inside or outside. Her condition was even better than his. It was really a miracle.
Yan Yue didn't even know how she was treated. She only felt as if she was asleep. There was no pain like before. When she woke up, everything was fine.
Yan Yue was also incomparably excited. From the message that Yan Ge left behind, she knew that Yan Ge was working for this person outside because of her injuries. He was also afraid that she would fall into a life and death situation and was very worried every day.
After all, that ball of information only told her to recuperate in peace and briefly mentioned her own situation. There was no other information. Now that she knew that Yan Ge was only looking for a very simple piece of information for the other party, she heaved a sigh of relief. However, she quickly raised it again because she thought of a problem.
"If it's just this unimportant information, will the other party not let me out?"
Yan Ge heard his sister's worry and sighed. In fact, after seeing that Yan Yue was completely healed, he was also worried.
Naturally, he knew how difficult it was to treat his sister's injuries.... After spending so much time and almost sacrificing himself, he still wasn't able to treat Yan Yue.. But the other party was able to treat Yan Yue so quickly........ but compared..
. without the other party's permission........
"Don't worry, sister. I will solve this problem. If it doesn't work, I will do more for the other party. As long as you are well, nothing else is a problem," Yan Ge comforted Yan Yue.
He was poor and had nothing of value. The only thing he could do was to continue doing things for the other party.
"If it doesn't work out, let's make an oath. I'll head out as well. If we work together, we should be able to complete this transaction quickly." Yan Yue said from the side.
"No, I'd rather spend more time on my own. Sister, don't worry, you'll be able to get out very soon. Just give me a little more time." Yan Ge flatly rejected the other party, then promised.
. Yan Yue saw that her brother had made up his mind and knew she couldn't change it. She could only sigh.
"I know you've suffered a lot. Tell me what you've done before."
After half a day, when Gu Zheng estimated that it was about time, he came downstairs. Seeing that the two of them were still chatting, he shrugged his shoulders and walked over.
"I know you have a lot of things to talk about. However, I don't have that much time right now. So, I'll have to disturb you." Gu Zheng smiled and put down the kitten.
"Of course. So, let's go out first." Yan Ge nodded at his sister and stood up.
Gu Zheng grabbed Yan Ge's shoulder and appeared in the small cave again.
"Thank you for helping my sister recover. I'm here to tell you what I found out." Yan Ge said directly after appearing outside.
Gu Zheng only tilted his head and listened attentively.
"Zhu Hun, who is deeply trusted by the Heavenly King, is in charge of the encirclement of Soul Alliance. However, this plan was already infiltrated before they were in charge. They were just finishing up."
"This time, only a small portion of subordinate Demon Souls participated. The rest were sent by various Demon Soul species. However, according to the information I obtained, because that side is about to finish up, most of the Demon Souls have already gone over. Zhu Hun is personally overseeing it, but I don't know where exactly."
"Do you know when they'll act?" Gu Zheng suddenly interrupted.
"After Soul Alliance's event, it's said that the current Soul Alliance Master will take out a Starlight Stone to reward the city lord who won first place. Of course, second and third place will have other rewards as well. However, it's not as good as the first place reward. That Starlight Stone is said to be filled with spatial energy. It can allow one to break through spatial seals and even leave a sealed location. However, you know that it's basically useless here."
"As for this event, it's because of the sudden internal battle that broke out a while ago, so everyone has a way to resolve it. After this event, all hatred must be put down. After the event, the Alliance Master will gather everyone together to discuss some matters. That's all I know from Soul Alliance."
"As for the Demon Soul side, there are a few people in Soul Alliance that have infiltrated or sought refuge with us. Once they're discussing, we'll catch them all in one fell swoop. However, as for who they are, I'm not sure." Yan Ge was afraid Gu Zheng would misunderstand and explained in detail.
"So that's how it is. In this time, you've gathered so much information."
Gu Zheng was already very satisfied. They hadn't been apart for long. He even thought that Yan Ge hadn't moved. He didn't expect that Yan Ge had already gathered enough information and was busy with his own matters.
"There's still a few more. I don't know if you'll be able to use them."
Yan Ge told Gu Zheng all the information he knew and let Gu Zheng understand a lot. He even knew that Gai Jin, who had fought with him before, was under Zhu Hun. He seemed to be in an important position and was running around for a few things.
"Very good, the information you've obtained this time is enough. However, there's one last thing. If you complete it, the monsters in the sky will be free. Before that, I want to ask you, what are you doing here? Do you want to destroy the blessing ceremony again? "
Gu Zheng nodded his head in satisfaction. The information Yan Ge gave him was enough for him. It seemed that he had to go back. That Star Illumination Stone was something he had to obtain no matter what. To the small cat, it might be able to speed up her recovery. If Yan Ge had extra, that would be even better.
However, he still had some doubts about Yan Ge's arrival here. It should be known that since Yan Ge destroyed the barrier, it was now strictly forbidden for any unnecessary people to appear in the surroundings. Layers of formations had been set up around the altar in order to prevent any accidents. After Yan Ge received the information, he didn't come to find him. Could it be that this matter was more important than the barrier?
"Of course not. I don't know why, but when I wanted to contact you before, I felt that you had disappeared. I thought of your destination. At that time, I guessed that you should have entered the Palace City. I couldn't sneak into that place. Since the blessing ceremony started, I came here to wait for it to end. I wanted to find an opportunity to deal with the two newly blessed people and seize something that only we can use from them." Yan Ge explained in detail, not wanting Gu Zheng to feel any doubts.
"So that's how it is. However, what I'm doing now needs to be done after the blessing ceremony. You know, I asked you about the passage that leads to that place. This time, you will accompany me. Time is tight, but the other party doesn't need to go there. I can help you ambush them and give you a hand." Gu Zheng said directly.
Originally, Gu Zheng thought that Yan Ge would be very happy. After all, with his help, Yan Ge's success rate would be greatly increased. However, after he finished speaking, Yan Ge's face revealed a bitter smile.
"I don't need your help, sir. From the information I've eavesdropped on before, the other party will use their concealment to do something after the blessing ceremony ends. If they are really in the Soul River, even you and I won't be able to stop them. However, I'm willing to give up and accompany you there." Yan Ge said helplessly.
"Is that thing very important to you?" Gu Zheng suddenly asked. "Very important.
"It's also very important because you know that our blessings haven't gone through the altar. This is a huge flaw in our future growth. As long as we kill the other party, we can make up for it. This time, the other party seems to have gone inland to do something. If I want to, I can definitely make it. However, I can bring you there first. If we're fast, we might be able to make it in time." Yan Ge said honestly.
Under normal circumstances, the water demon would quickly leave after the blessing ceremony. There would be people protecting her the entire time. In addition to the fact that they were in the Soul River, he had no chance at all. However, the other party seemed to want to leave for a trip, which was why they came all the way here. If he missed this opportunity, he would really miss it.
"I don't necessarily need you to accompany me. Does your sister know how to get there?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"Yes, you mean to let my sister bring you there." Yan Ge was not stupid. He immediately understood Gu Zheng's meaning.
"Well, if that's the case, let your sister bring me there. But before that, you have to work together with me to kill someone. After the blessing ceremony, I will look for you. After your sister brings me there, she will also be released." Gu Zheng said decisively.
"Okay."
Yan Ge did not have any objections. This was the only way to solve this problem perfectly. If he missed this opportunity, he might not have another chance. He knew that this was an opportunity that Lord Gu had given him on purpose. He was very grateful.
Thinking about how they met, he realized that his thoughts were a little dirty. At the same time, he remembered that although the other party was not a Demon Soul, he was still a person worth befriending.
"If that's the case, where can I find you after the blessing ceremony?" Gu Zheng was about to leave when he thought of a question.
"Here. There is an underground river below. I can go there without any hindrance." Yan Ge pointed at the Soul Water and said.
"Okay."
Gu Zheng nodded and left.
When he returned, he did not walk around. Instead, he went to the few small houses where they were temporarily resting and waited quietly.
Soon, it was time for the blessing ceremony. At this moment, Elder Nineteen and the Mirror Demon were looking down with solemn faces. The two Water Demon Clansmen were using their two feet to walk up the stairs, one step at a time, with a sacred expression on their faces.
Gu Zheng and Mo Dou were like two guards, standing on the left and right sides of the entrance. In front of them were the equally solemn elders of the Water Tribe, who were still praising them in a language that the monsters didn't understand.
In the crowd, Gu Zheng also saw Ma Nan. She was still pretending to be in the crowd, looking up.
However, Gu Zheng did not pay attention to her. After the blessing ceremony, she would die.
The blessing ceremony was also very troublesome. Gu Zheng did not know the specific principles behind it. Anyway, after a huge tremor, the entire altar seemed to have turned into a huge golden egg. Nothing could be seen inside, only the tremors could be heard. After half a day, the tremors slowly subsided.
When the altar reappeared, the two Water Goblin had completely advanced to the early stage of the Grand Luo Realm. Streams of water kept circling around their bodies and only returned to their bodies after a long time.
"Let's go!"
The 19th Elder said to the two guards beside him as he came down with the Mirror Demon.
At this time, the 19th Elder seemed to be seriously ill. The Mirror Demon beside him was also weak and no longer as lively as before.
Gu Zheng and Mo Dou quickly followed behind and left. After the Water Demon Clan received their two clansmen, they also sealed the altar and returned to the cave they came from.
"19th Elder, thank you for taking care of me along the way. I want to leave now." In the 19th Elder's house, Gu Zheng said goodbye to him.
"Go. I know you have your reasons for staying here. I can't control you. Do you need me to bring anything back?" the 19th Elder asked as if he already knew this would happen.
"Please tell the Second Elder that I will definitely save Meng Zhen." Gu Zheng said seriously. Then, he left without looking back.
"Sigh, I hope so." The 19th Elder thought silently as he looked at Gu Zheng's back. Of course, he did not have any hope in his heart. Gu Zheng could not even enter.
Then, the Mirror Demon that she had been keeping in the scroll was released. They only needed to wait for one more day and they would complete their mission and return to the Palace City.
After Gu Zheng left, he immediately concealed his figure and rushed towards Yan Ge's place.
"Master Gu." Yan Ge said respectfully when Gu Zheng appeared.
At the same time, he was very emotional. He did not know how many trump cards Gu Zheng had. Seeing Gu Zheng's Mirror Demon appearance, if it was not for his sister, he would not have dared to recognize it. He had to confirm it repeatedly before he finally lured Gu Zheng over. This disguise was flawless and flawless.
"How is it? Did the person I asked you to watch leave? "
Although the blessing had just ended and there was a high chance that the other party would not leave, Gu Zheng still asked. If the other party left early, they could really catch him off guard. That was why he rushed over in a hurry.
"No, I can vaguely feel that the other party has gathered together. Usually, there are at least three more days to let the people who are blessed get used to it. Master Gu, please don't be impatient." Yan Ge did not understand the monster in the sky.
The other party was not strong, but if they rushed over, it would be easy for the target to escape. Moreover, the chief had life-saving items on him. At a critical moment, he could take the others with him and leave.
"Keep an eye on the other party. Once the other party leaves, come with me."
Gu Zheng knew that the water demons could leave through the underground river. Of course, there was no direct path to the Spirit River here. They had to cross a long distance. Since Ma Nan had become a demon soul, the other party could not leave through the Spirit River.
Besides, the other party was going to come out, so there was a high chance that they wouldn't leave with Ma Nan underwater. They also wouldn't know that Gu Zheng was lying in ambush for Ma Nan. Therefore, Gu Zheng waited patiently and adjusted his condition. He would wait for them to separate on the third day before taking action.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Gu Zheng had also finished his preparations at the side, ready to set off at any time. Although this made him feel a little awkward, in his opinion, the monster in the sky was dead for sure. Before he had the Black Tower, he had dared to fight it. Now that he had the Black Tower, there was even less suspense.
Letting Yan Ge help him was to prevent the other party from escaping. That black cat's ability was about the same as a kitten's. Naturally, Yan Ge would be more vigilant.
Gu Zheng and Yan Ge were chatting casually, listening to some other news. Suddenly, Yan Ge's expression changed. He immediately jumped down, leaving behind ripples on the water.
"What's going on?"
Gu Zheng suddenly had a bad feeling. He stood at the edge and carefully looked down. Although he could enter, he would not hide himself as well as Yan Ge. If he really followed, it would be easy to alert the other party. He could only wait above.
"Crash!"
Soon, Yan Ge jumped up from below. Before Gu Zheng could ask, Yan Ge anxiously said, "Lord Gu, the other party disappeared.
"Lord Gu, the other party has disappeared. Ma Nan and the two blessed clansmen you asked me to pay attention to have also disappeared."
"What happened?" Gu Zheng was no longer calm. He hurriedly asked.
"I don't know, but I guess the other party must have teleported away. We have to go and take a look to know." Yan Ge shook his head.
"They managed to escape like that?" Gu Zheng was a little depressed. He knew that the other party did not know of his existence. In other words, he had some mission that required him to bring the two water demons away.
Half a day later, when all the water demons had left, Gu Zheng followed Yan Ge to the other party's location and began to investigate.
"Yes, they did teleport away. However, I don't know the exact location. The only thing I am sure of is that they did not return to the Soul River." Yan Ge reported the situation.
"Then can you still find them?" Gu Zheng quickly asked.
"Yes, but I need at least half a month. The longer the time, the higher the chance of finding them." Yan Ge said with certainty. He did not want to let the two water demons go.
"We can't wait any longer." Gu Zheng shook his head and let Yan Yue out as he spoke to her.
"Take me to the tunnel you left through. Yan Ge, you go and find the other party. If you can kill them, then kill them. If you can't, then finish your own things first and come back to help me."
"Okay!"
Yan Ge and Yan Yue said in unison.
