Chapter 486: Ah Gu, Ye…
The next day, in the afternoon.
The streets of Qulong Village were busy with traffic, and there were male and female demonic cultivators in weird clothes everywhere.
In front of the window of the room on the third floor of Hongyan Pavilion, Ye Anping was wearing a silver mask and playing with Gu Mingxin’s left hand to pass the time, waiting for Kong Huayuan to bring the Ghost Spirit Sect disciples to join him.
Feng Yudie dressed up as a maid, munching on the roast chicken that Ye Anping used to seal her mouth. From time to time, she glanced at Ye Anping, who was standing on the side of the window with his hands behind his back, and secretly smiled sweetly.
“Whee…”
Not long after, Xiao Tian, who was acting as the real eye at the top of the wine loft, flew directly through the ceiling and shouted:
“Anping, Kong Huayuan brought a middle-stage Nascent Soul ghost cultivator into the attic! I just poked my head into the man’s storage bag and took a look. It was an elder from the Ghost Spirit Sect named Chen Rugu.”
“Chen Rugu…”
Ye Anping frowned slightly when he heard the name.
His original plan was to lead Kong Huayuan to set a trap outside Qulong Village, and then lead Gu Mingxin into the trap.
When Gu Mingxin attracted Kong Huayuan’s attention, he would team up with Feng Yudie to kill Kong Huayuan’s Nascent Soul with a sneak attack from behind, and then bury all the Ghost Spirit Sect confidence brought by Kong Huayuan in the Qulong Village.
In this way, he could hide the truth and use Kong Huayuan’s identity to enter Donghuang and cause damage.
And now that Kong Huayuan was bringing an elder from the Ghost Spirit Sect, it also meant that Kong Xiangmo probably still had doubts about his identity as an elder from the Heavenly Demon Sect, and asking Chen Rugu to come with him was probably to give Kong Huayuan a guard.
It’s a pity that Kong Xiangmo had far underestimated the combat power of their side.
Chen Rugu was indeed difficult to deal with, but against Feng Yudie, Gu Mingxin and him, in terms of protection, it was better than nothing…
“I know.”
Ye Anping stood up and quickly opened an eye on Gu Mingxin’s left hand with a knife. It was so painful that she immediately pinched it back in protest, and then wrapped Gu Mingxin’s evil aura around his body.
Seeing Feng Yudie still eating there, he quickly stepped forward, wrapped the half of the roast chicken that she had not finished eating, and put it into the storage bag:
“Stop eating… People are coming.”
After finishing speaking, Ye Anping took out the handkerchief to wipe off the oil from her mouth, put the visor on her face, and ordered:
“Stand aside and don’t mess around for a while…”
Feng Yudie glanced at Ye Anping’s thigh, blinked, and asked:
“Well… Why don’t I lie on your lap like last time? This makes you look badder and more like a demon cultivator, hehe…”
“Don’t…”
“It’s okay… I just want to lie down.”
“I don’t want you to lie down…”
Xiao Tian watched from the side that his Yudie was so proactive, and was very pleased, but he didn’t bother to look at it. He quickly floated to the door, looked out of the house through the door, and saw Kong Huayuan and Chen Rugu. They had already arrived in front of the door, he quickly turned around and shouted:
“Anping, they are at the door.”
Hearing this voice, Ye Anping didn’t push Feng Yudie away at all, and let her kneel beside him, lying on his lap, and then raised his hand to touch the back of her head like last time.
Bang bang——
Two knocks on the door came. Ye Anping pinched his throat slightly and lowered his voice and said:
“Please come in.”
Kong Huayuan opened the door and led a woman wearing a red ghost mask out of the wing. When he entered the door, he saw Ye Anping pressing his cauldron on his legs like a pet and stroking it like last time, but on the cauldron was there was no hint of resistance at all, but there was a hint of joking on his face as he asked:
“Hey, I’ve been telling you this before, this immortal cultivator girl is very well-behaved after being trained by Brother Liang.”
Ye Anping was speechless and snorted coldly:
“Haha… It’s the same reply as before, this girl is not for sale.”
“That’s a pity…”
Kong Huayuan shrugged slightly, reached out to the ghost-faced woman beside him, and introduced:
“Elder Chen, this is the elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Prison Hall, Liang Liu. That girl is the Immortal Cultivation Cauldron that he captured from the Xuannu Sect in the Southern Domain.”
The ghost-faced eyes briefly examined Ye Anping. When he felt the evil aura around Ye Anping and the dandy air he now had, he nodded in greeting without saying a word, and just found a seat to sit down.
Seeing her move, Ye Anping felt a little relieved. After all, Chen Rugu was not as easy to fool as Kong Huayuan. He had thought that he would be tested again, but now it seemed that he was overly worried.
After Kong Huayuan took his seat, he took out the aged wine from his storage bag without saying a word, poured it for the three people present one by one, and said:
“Brother Liang, Elder Chen doesn’t like beating around the bush, so please get down to business first. After that, I’ll have a few drinks with you.”
Ye Anping nodded, waved his hand and took out the map around Qulong Village that he had made yesterday from his storage bag, and spread it on the table:
“This is the valley south of Qulong Village. I will set up a Thousand Killing Formation here. After Gu Mingxin enters the formation, I will tie her up in it, and then Elder Chen and Young Master Kong will work together to kill her. Master Kong has seen Gu Mingxin before, so he should naturally know her abilities and cannot underestimate the enemy.”
Chen Rugu on the side looked at the map Ye Anping took out and squinted slightly:
“Elder Liang, Gu Mingxin is a traitor to the Heavenly Demon Sect… Is it inappropriate for you to sit back and let Master Kong and I deal with her head-on?”
Ye Anping met her gaze without squinting:
“Isn’t it appropriate?”
“I have heard about what Gu Mingxin is capable of…”
Ye Anping narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, “What does Elder Chen have to say?”
“Let Master Kong form a formation outside.”
When Ye Anping heard this, he immediately understood that it was probably Kong Huayuan and his father who said something like, “Don’t let my son be in danger during this period.” He shrugged slightly:
“It’s okay. Master Kong will just take my cauldron and guard it outside the valley when she comes…”
Kong Huayuan felt disappointed after hearing this, and quickly defended himself:
“Elder Chen, I’m not a loser, but I want to compare with that Gu Mingxin.”
“Gu Mingxin is also a direct descendant of the Prison Hell… Elder Kong Da asked me to follow you here. If you have any shortcomings, how will I explain it when I go back?”
“Tsk…”
Kong Huayuan immediately twitched the corner of his mouth, a little dissatisfied, but glanced at Feng Yudie who was still lying on Ye Anping’s lap, and simply nodded in agreement:
“Well, if you catch Gu Mingxin, can Brother Liang give this girl to me? Brother Liang, I really want her.”
Hearing this, Ye Anping’s hand that was smoothing the back of Feng Yudie’s head stopped immediately. He gritted his teeth hard, suppressed the inexplicable anger in his heart, and said with a smile:
“Not for sale.”
“That’s all… Brother Liang, how many drinks should we have? How about Elder Chen also having a pot?”
“Um…”
…
——
A crescent moon rose from the eastern horizon, and the silver moonlight suffuses Donghuang city next door with a layer of white frost.
A black-haired woman wearing black clothes and a gauze scarf was stepping on a flying sword, riding the wind and breaking through the clouds, dragging out a bloody aura from the direction of Donghuang a hundred feet in the air.
“Hmph~♪~Hmph♪”
A cheerful tune came from the woman’s lips.
The vast and cold desert surrounding her could not suppress her joyful mood at this moment.
A month ago, on the palm of her left hand that she left with her beloved, a sentence was written:
——See you in Donghuang in a month.
From then on, Gu Mingxin was like a little girl who was going on an outing the next day. She couldn’t sleep, couldn’t condense her energy well, and was looking forward to that day.
Seeing that the appointed time was getting closer, Gu Mingxin was extremely excited, thinking that in a little while, she would be able to see her Ye Anping…
She couldn’t calm down at all
“Ye Anping~hum hum♪~~Anping~~♪…”
Xue, who was sitting cross-legged on top of Gu Mingxin’s head with a wooden sword on her back and a small map in her hand, looked at the blooming spring flowers in Gu Mingxin mind, and immediately looked helpless and reminded:
“Ming Xin, all the six sects of Demonic Cultivators are looking for you now. You will enter Qulong Village soon, don’t forget to restrain your aura. If this is exposed, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble…”
“Hmph♪…”
Xue didn’t know whether she heard it or not. She sighed slightly, stood up, used a forceful move to stomp her head, frowned and scolded:
“Mingxin!!!”
Gu Mingxin showed some dissatisfaction, glanced at it, and said:
“Oh… I know.”
“What do you know! Even though Ye Anping asked you to go see him, you have lost your energy and stopped practicing your sword. You think about him every day! What kind of words are you talking about!”
Xue frowned, crossed her chest and stomped on her forehead a few times, looked around, and said:
“I don’t know why he asked you to come to Donghuang? Donghuang is now the territory of the Ghost Spirit Sect. It’s not good to choose any place to meet. You have to choose this place. The people of the Ghost Spirit Sect are all watching you.”
Gu Mingxin went in and out of his left ear and asked:
“Xue, how far is it?”
“There are still more than three hundred miles, so you fly slowly… We won’t…”
Before she finished speaking, when she heard that there was only a hundred miles left, Gu Mingxin’s eyes suddenly became a little more joyful, and the flying sword that was about to pour her spiritual energy into the soles of her feet sped up again.
“Hiss—Ming Xin!! Don’t be anxious! Fly slowly!! What if a disciple of the Ghost Spirit Sect sees it… Oh!! Ming Xin!!!”
Gu Mingxin didn’t care about Xue’s nagging. She just wanted to see Ye Anping as soon as possible.
Last time at Taibai Sect, because of the presence of White Fool and Taibai Sect disciples, she could only taste it briefly, but this time she would not let up if she didn’t taste enough.
She wanted to chew Ye Anping’s mouth out!!
The flying sword was like a red ghost cutting through the night. Under her spiritual power, it took less than a stick of incense to travel three hundred miles.
There were demon cultivators coming and going in the Red Mansion and Wine Pavilions all over the streets. After entering Qulong Village, Gu Mingxin stopped being lavish, but carefully restrained her aura and blended into the crowd.
She glanced expectantly at the people on the street, and noticed a man in black not far ahead who was selecting elixirs in front of an elixir stall.
Gu Mingxin thought it was Ye Anping, so she quickly sneaked over, but when the man turned around, she realized that it was not him. She suddenly felt the urge to chop the man down, so she quickly turned around and continued moving forward.
Seeing that there was no one around, she asked:
“Xue, where is he?”
Xue was also in a bit of trouble. There were too many people here. If it released its spiritual consciousness to find Ye Anping, its head would hurt to death. After thinking for a while, it said:
“Ming Xin, why don’t you grab his butt with your hands?”
“Um…”
Gu Mingxin was silent for a moment, then she controlled her left hand and squeezed it hard, and then there was a stinging pain from being slapped by the ruler.
“Hiss–”
Gu Mingxin took a breath and unconsciously wanted to rub it, but unfortunately she couldn’t.
However, Ye Anping seemed to know that she meant “she has arrived.” Gu Mingxin felt that the fingers of her left hand were opened by Ye Anping. Ye Anping’s index finger fell on the palm of her hand and scratched it gently:
——The valley south of Qulong Village.
Gu Ming was stunned, and curled her lips in disappointment.
She had agreed to stay in Donghuang before, but when she was about to arrive in Donghuang, Ye Anping asked her to come to Qulong Village again, and now he asked her to go to the valley south of Qulong Village…
So annoying.
However, she just complained, looked at the pedestrians around her, and then transformed into a streak of blood and jumped into the air from the street.
“Hey? Ming Xin… What’s wrong?”
“Ye Anping said to go to the valley south of Qulong Village.”
“Ah?”
Xue was stunned for a moment, and quickly took out the map and took a look at it, but Gu Mingxin didn’t wait for it, summoned the flying sword and stepped quickly toward the valley to the south.
“Hey! Ming Xin, don’t be anxious!!”
Gu Mingxin flew in front, and Xue chased behind. The two of them moved forward and backward for only a stick of incense, and then came to the valley that Ye Anping mentioned.
Panting, Xue touched Gu Mingxin’s forehead and kicked her a few times with a look of resentment. Then she took out the Heavenly Demon Book from under her skirt, flipped through it, and said:
“Ming Xin, this is the Xuyuan Valley. Twelve thousand years ago, it was the seat of a sect called the ‘Xuyuan Sect’. However, due to the war between the demonic cultivator and the immortal family, the spiritual veins were destroyed, and this place became a wasteland, that sect moved to the Southern Domain…”
“Um…”
Gu Mingxin didn’t listen to what it said at all. She looked around and saw no one alive, so she simply used her sword to go down and landed on a cliff in the valley. Her eyes were moving back and forth on the thousand-foot-high pillars and sandstone walls around her.
There were no birds or animals there, and with the crescent moon at night, it looked a little desolate.
Still not seeing Ye Anping, Gu Mingxin became a little impatient. She looked around, then simply controlled her left hand and pinched Ye Anping’s butt again.
However, when she held it, she found that her left hand seemed to be hung up by Ye Anping again.
“Um?”
Gu Mingxin frowned slightly, not knowing what was going on, and at this moment, Xue, who was looking around with her spiritual consciousness above her head, suddenly opened her eyes wide as if she saw something:
“Ming Xin!! It’s a trap!! Let’s leave quickly!!”
“What trap?”
Gu Mingxin was a little confused and asked in a low voice.
The next moment, a bloody red light soared into the sky from the valley, and in an instant it condensed into a bloody spiritual stone that could envelop the entire valley.
“Ming Xin!! Behind you!!”
Hearing Xue’s reminder, Gu Mingxin was still a little confused, but she quickly reacted. She almost instantly summoned the blood-colored spiritual sword and held it in her hand. He turned around and held the spiritual sword horizontally in front of her.
Ding–
Sparks exploded.
The woman with the red ghost face was holding a curved snake sword, and she didn’t know when she had arrived behind her.
Gu Mingxin looked at the ghostly face of the woman, took a deep breath, immediately distanced herself, stood up in the air, and then looked around her in disbelief.
It was obviously Ye Anping who asked her to meet here.
Why are the elders of the Ghost Spirit Sect here?
And what’s going on with this formation?
Xue also looked confused, and quickly flew to Gu Mingxin’s side, helping her to be alert to the surroundings, and asked:
“Ming Xin, didn’t he ask you to come here? Why are there cultivators from the Ghost Spirit Sect here…”
Gu Ming looked aggrievedly at the ghost-faced woman below who did not choose to catch up. She twisted her eyebrows and looked at the formation spirit jade above that trapped her there, and finally came to a conclusion.
Ye Anping sold her again…
He obviously took her kiss! He even took her hand! !
In the end, she was sold to the Ghost Spirit Sect.
The spiritual sword in Gu Mingxin’s hand made a clicking sound when she squeezed it. She gritted her teeth in love and immediately wanted to shout Ye Anping’s name, but before she could do so.
Ye Anping’s cold voice came from behind her:
“Young Master Gu, you are fine.”
Gu Mingxin was slightly startled, and turned around to look, only to see a young man in black robes, wearing a silver visor, floating with his hands behind his back about a hundred feet away from her…
She was a little confused, looked at the elder of the Ghost Spirit Sect below, and asked:
“Ye…”
Ye Anping interrupted again:
“I wonder if Young Master Gu still remembers Mr. Liang.”
