Chapter 315 Capturing Ji Yewei
"I'll take care of one thing if I can." Gu Sheng said lightly, "At least I can give some people hope."
The night was dim and the stars were sparse. In the vast underground world, a dark and mysterious land appeared before their eyes.
Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei drifted slowly along the winding underground river. The river water sparkled under the reflection of the glowworms, like a flowing Milky Way.
"Gu Sheng, can't you just let me go?" Ji Yewei tried to persuade Gu Sheng again, with a hint of pleading and dissatisfaction in her tone, "I have already promised you that I will never cause you any trouble after I return."
Gu Sheng glanced at her with a bit of teasing in his eyes, "Ji Yewei, your promise is meaningless to me. You are the famous second lady of the Ji family, with high cultivation and deep scheming. If I let you go, wouldn't it be asking for trouble?"
"You bastard!" Ji Yewei glared at Gu Sheng and muttered, "When this lady regains her freedom, I will definitely make you look good!"
"Humph, then I'll wait." Gu Sheng chuckled, turned his head away without caring, and continued to enjoy the scenery along the way.
As the underground river went deeper, the surrounding scenery gradually became fantastic. Colorful fluorescent insects began to appear on both sides of the originally dark river. They flew in the air, like stars twinkling in the night sky. These tiny lives emit soft light, which complements the waves of the underground river, making the entire underground world look like a dreamlike fairyland.
"Wow, it's really beautiful!" Ji Yewei couldn't help but exclaimed, her eyes were deeply attracted by these beautiful fireflies, and for a moment she even forgot the dispute with Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng didn't speak, but just looked at her quietly, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes. In this beautiful underground world, the grudges between the two of them seemed to have become insignificant.
The light of the fireflies reflected on Ji Yewei's face, adding a bit of mysterious and charming color to her. Gu Sheng couldn't help but feel an inexplicable emotion in his heart, and he found that he began to appreciate this woman who had once given him a headache.
The two continued to move forward, the river became wider and wider, and the surrounding scenery became more magnificent and colorful. They saw stalactites towering into the sky, strange rocks, and many strange creatures that they had never seen before. In this fantasy world, the two gradually relaxed their minds.
"Gu Sheng, what do you see there?" Ji Yewei suddenly pointed to a strange landscape in front of her and asked. There was a bright sea of fluorescent flowers, shining in the dark, and each flower exuded a soft light, like an elf in a fairyland.
These flowers are colorful and in various shapes, some are like dancing butterflies, and some are like phoenixes spreading their wings to fly. There are also several cute little animals playing in the sea of fluorescent flowers, jumping or jumping, chasing or hiding, adding a bit of vitality and vitality to this sea of flowers.
Gu Sheng looked in the direction of her finger, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, "That is a sea of fluorescent flowers, one of the wonders of the underground world." He explained, "These flowers only bloom at night, and they are very rare. We are lucky to see such a large sea of fluorescent flowers."
Ji Yewei looked at the beautiful scenery in front of her in amazement, "It's so beautiful! I have never seen such beautiful flowers!" As she spoke, she couldn't help but reach out to touch those beautiful flowers.
However, just as she was about to touch the flower, a beautiful butterfly flew over her fingertips, and the scales on its wings flashed colorful light under the fluorescent light. Ji Yewei was deeply attracted by the butterfly, and she chased the butterfly and played.
Gu Sheng looked at her cheerful figure and the smile on her face, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.
He found that in this underground world full of fantasy and beauty, the grudges between him and Ji Yewei seemed to become insignificant. He began to appreciate her, like her, and even... fall in love with her?
No! How could this be possible!
Gu Sheng shook his head violently, trying to get rid of these absurd ideas in his mind. However, when he looked up at Ji Yewei again, he found that she had stopped chasing the butterfly and was standing quietly in the fluorescent flower sea, staring at him.
When their eyes met, they both fell into silence. There is an indescribable atmosphere in the air...
"Hey! What are you looking at!" Ji Yewei muttered with a slightly hot face, "Are there flowers on my face?" After that, she turned around and pretended to look away angrily. However, she secretly glanced at you from the corner of her eyes, as if expecting your answer.
Gu Sheng chuckled and walked to her side, "You don't have flowers on your face, but you are more beautiful than this fluorescent sea of flowers." He said softly. This sudden praise made Ji Yewei stunned. She turned her head to look at you, with surprise and joy in her eyes, "You...are you telling the truth?" She stuttered.
"Of course it's true." Gu Sheng smiled and said, "I have never seen a more beautiful woman than you." At this moment, he couldn't help but become a love veteran, and some corny love words came out of his mouth, which seemed very natural.
At this moment, in the dazzling sea of fluorescent flowers, the two people's eyes met...
Fairyland Romance·Continued
The night became increasingly hazy, and the originally peaceful underground world was suddenly broken by a strange movement.
In the darkness, a monster named "Shadow Crack Beast" suddenly jumped out. It was shaped like a leopard, but had a pair of scarlet eyes and sharp fangs, and exuded a cold breath. The most peculiar thing was that its figure appeared and disappeared under the reflection of the fluorescent insects, as if it could tear the shadow apart.
"Run!" Gu Sheng grabbed Ji Yewei's wrist and the two fled the scene quickly. Shadow Splitmon let out a low roar and chased after him.
"Chacha~"
"What the hell is this?" Ji Yewei asked while running.
"This is the Shadow Split Beast. It is extremely fast and can shuttle through shadows. It is very difficult to deal with!" Gu Sheng explained that he had seen this kind of monster in "The Chronicles of Xiwu".
The two shuttled through the complicated twists and turns of the cave, avoiding the pursuit of the Shadow Splinter Beast. The light of the glowworms reflected their nervous and determined faces.
"We can't keep running away, we have to find a way to deal with it!" Ji Yewei said.
Gu Sheng nodded in agreement, "Do you have any good strategies?"
A cunning light flashed in Ji Yewei's eyes, "We can use the fluorescent bugs here to confuse it!"
The two quickly discussed a plan and began to induce the shadow beast into the preset trap.
. In a narrow passage, Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei suddenly separated and ran in two different directions.
"Chatter~"
The shadow split beast roared and chose to pursue Ji Yewei.
Gu Sheng took the opportunity to go around to the back of the Shadow Split Beast, holding a dagger that shone with cold light in his hand. Just when the Shadow Split Beast was about to pounce on Ji Yewei, Gu Sheng suddenly jumped out and stabbed the Jade Girl Sword into the Shadow Split Beast's back.
"Ouch~"
The Shadow Split Beast let out a shrill scream, turned around and pounced on Gu Sheng. The two started a thrilling fight. Gu Sheng is agile and every attack is extremely accurate, but the Shadow Split Beast is no ordinary creature. It can freely shuttle through the shadows, making it unpredictable.
"Gu Sheng, be careful!" Ji Yewei exclaimed.
At the critical moment, Gu Sheng rolled and avoided the fatal blow of the Shadow Splitter Beast. He took the opportunity to pull out the long sword from his waist and fight side by side with Ji Yewei. The two started a thrilling battle with the Shadow Splinter Beast in the beautiful underground world. Their figures flickered in and out under the light of the fluorescent bugs, and the scene of their fight with the Shadow Split Beast was thrilling.
"Pfft!" With a muffled sound, Gu Sheng's long sword finally pierced the shadow split beast's heart. The monster fell to the ground with a crash, and the two of them collapsed on the ground from exhaustion.
"Are you okay?" Gu Sheng asked with concern.
Ji Yewei shook her head, "I'm fine, thank you." Her eyes shone with gratitude and respect. Never before had a stranger been so kind to her, making her feel unprecedented warmth in this moment of crisis.
Gu Sheng smiled slightly, "We are companions and should support each other." After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to pull Ji Yewei up. The two understood each other, as if all their grudges had disappeared at this moment.
The two were exhausted both physically and mentally, so they became entangled in grass and vines and drifted along the underground river.
It was already dawn when they emerged from the underground cave. The sun shone on the two of them, as if they were covered with a golden halo. They rested for a while by the lake, enjoying this rare quiet time.
At this moment, an emerald bird suddenly flew across the sky, leaving a wisp of fragrance.
The two of them felt their bodies become soft for a while, then their eyes became blurred, and they passed out instantly. When they woke up, they found themselves tied under a big tree by Wuhua Da.
The sunlight filtered through the treetops and shone dappledly on the two of them.
And standing in front of them was Ji Yewei's cousin, Ji Yefu.
At this time, Ji Yefu was watching them with interest.
"You finally woke up." Ji Yefu said with a smile, a hint of cunning and cruelty flashed in his eyes, "I am the guardian here, and you broke into my territory without permission and killed my pet Shadow Splinter Beast. Ji Yewei, you’ve finally shown your face, I’ll see how you die this time!”
Ji Yewei's eyes widened and she looked at this once familiar face in disbelief, "Ji Yefu? Why are you here?"
"Why am I here?" Ji Yefu snorted coldly, "This is my territory, of course I will be here. But you, Ji Yewei, you are so brave, you dare to break into my territory!"
"Your territory? This is obviously a public area!" Ji Yewei retorted.
"Hmph, what I say is mine is mine." Ji Yefu said arrogantly, "Moreover, you not only broke into my territory, but also killed my beloved Shadow Splinter Beast. You know it took me a long time to cultivate it. How much thought? Today, I want you to pay for it!"
Ji Yefu's words made Ji Yewei feel chilled. She knew that this conflict with Ji Yefu would not be easily resolved. Ever since she was a child, Ji Yefu has always been jealous of her beauty and talent, and always tried every means to oppose her. Now that she fell into Ji Yefu's hands, she knew that the next days would not be easy.
"Ji Yefu, what do you want?" Gu Sheng asked calmly, trying to break the tense atmosphere.
"How is it? Haha!" Ji Yefu laughed, "Ji Yewei, do you think I will let you go easily? And you," she turned to Gu Sheng, "your ancient holy body is a treasure! It is said that the elixir of immortality can be refined from the flesh and blood of the ancient holy body!"
Gu Sheng frowned when he heard this, but did not show too much panic. He knew that his ancient holy body was indeed extraordinary, but it was not impossible to crack it. He looked at Ji Yefu calmly, as if assessing her strength and determination.
"Ji Yefu, do you think you won?" Ji Yewei suddenly sneered, "Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you caught us?"
"Humph, isn't it?" Ji Yefu asked, "You are my prisoners now, I can do whatever I want!"
"Then you are totally wrong!" Ji Yewei's eyes suddenly became firm, "Do you think you understand the ancient holy body? Do you think you can easily use it to make medicine? It's ridiculous!"
Ji Yefu was angered by Ji Yewei's words, "Ji Yewei, don't go too far! You are in my hands now!"
"So what?" Ji Yewei responded fearlessly, "Do you think I am afraid of you? From childhood to adulthood, when have you ever defeated me?"
These words completely angered Ji Yefu, and she waved her hand violently, and an energy wave attacked Ji Yewei. However, just when the energy wave was about to hit Ji Yewei, Gu Sheng suddenly broke free from the restraints, pulled Ji Yewei behind him, and punched at the same time, colliding with the energy wave.
"Bang!" With a loud bang, the energy wave was dispersed by Gu Sheng's punch. He slowly stood up and looked at Ji Yefu coldly, "You, angered me."
Ji Yefu looked at Gu Sheng in astonishment. She didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary boy had such strength. Her first-level cultivation in the Undersea Realm seemed like a joke in front of Gu Sheng.
"You... How could you..." Ji Yefu said with a trembling voice.
"Nothing is impossible." Gu Sheng responded coldly, "Now, it's time for us to fight back."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the rope that bound him and Ji Yewei broke instantly. It turned out that from the moment he was tied up, the grass vine demon soul was quietly cutting the rope.
Because it was a fairy rope, the grass vine demon soul took a long time to completely cut it.
The sun shone on the lake, sparkling. Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei stood side by side, facing the terrified Ji Yefu.
"Ji Yefu, your crimes are too numerous to list." Ji Yewei said coldly, her eyes full of anger and disappointment, "From childhood to adulthood, you have always been jealous of me and framed me. Today is your doomsday!"
Ji Yefu's face was pale, and she begged in a trembling voice: "Yewei, I know I was wrong, please spare my life!"
Gu Sheng's eyes were cold, he did not take action directly, but gave the decision to Ji Yewei. He knew that this was a grudge between their families, and it should be settled by Ji Yewei.
"Your crimes cannot be offset by a sentence of knowing that you are wrong." Ji Yewei said, and began to list the various evil deeds of Ji Yefu and her family.
As Ji Yewei spoke, Ji Yefu's face became paler and paler, and she knew that she had nowhere to escape. Finally, Ji Yewei finished speaking, she looked at Ji Yefu who was limp on the ground, and took a deep breath. (End of this chapter)
