Chapter 385: Breaking Off an Engagement? Is There Still Law?

Just as Yan Ruyu and the others had just walked a few steps, Gu Sheng ran after them.

"Wait a minute!"

Gu Sheng shouted to everyone while running.

Yan Ruyu stopped immediately after hearing Gu Sheng's shout.

She turned around and looked at Gu Sheng, frowning slightly.

At this time, Gu Sheng looked at Yan Ruyu seriously.

To be honest, Gu Sheng's heart was in turmoil at this moment.

He had never seen such a beautiful woman.

Because Yan Ruyu's figure was well-proportioned and graceful, like a proudly blooming lotus, pure and elegant.

Similarly, her beauty seemed to condense the essence of heaven and earth, agile and flawless.

Gu Sheng couldn't help but feel a little out of control, he quickly gathered his mind and tried to make himself look calmer.

He ran to Yan Ruyu and said breathlessly: "Fairy Yan, I...I have something to tell you."

Yan Ruyu looked at Gu Sheng, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

She nodded slightly, motioning Gu Sheng to speak.

Gu Sheng tidied his clothes a little, and then said: "Miss Yan, I find that I have a strong interest in you now, I want to ask... that..."

"What?"

Yan Ruyu seemed to have guessed what Gu Sheng would say, so her tone was a little impatient.

"I want to ask, now that the Emperor's Heart is parasitic in my body, will you marry me?"

Gu Sheng asked expectantly.

"You..."

Yan Ruyu was a little helpless.

Seeing this, Bai Yiyi hurried forward to smooth things over.

"Mr. Gu, don't be so anxious, marriage is a big deal, and you need to think about it."

"Think about it?"

Gu Sheng was a little depressed.

That's not what he said when he said he was parasitic on the Emperor's Heart.

Now that it's done, you want to regret it?

Gu Sheng frowned, and a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

Therefore, his voice gradually rose, with a bit of questioning: "At the beginning, you promised that as long as I could parasitize the heart of the emperor in my body, you would agree to my proposal. Now, the heart of the emperor has merged with me, but you start to shirk it. What's the reason?"

"Mr. Gu!"

Bai Yiyi looked at Yan Ruyu next to her, pointed at Gu Sheng with a slender jade finger and shouted: "Shut up!"

"Shut up? You regretted it. Now you want me to shut up. Is there any law?"

Gu Sheng still looked unhappy.

At this time, Yan Ruyu's face also became ugly.

She didn't expect Gu Sheng to question so directly.

Then, Yan Ruyu said coldly: "Gu Sheng, are you questioning us? Marriage is not a joke. How can you make a hasty decision because of a momentary impulse?"

The atmosphere became tense for a while, and the air around them seemed to solidify.

Seeing this, Bai Yiyi wanted to speak again to ease the situation, but she knew that Yan Ruyu was really angry at this moment.

Suddenly, Yan Ruyu moved, and a powerful force burst out from her body.

"Shua!"

A bright light flew out from Yan Ruyu's sleeves, directly knocking Gu Sheng several meters away.

Gu Sheng's body drew an arc in the air and landed heavily in the cold pond not far away, splashing water.

The water in the cold pond was freezing cold, but Gu Sheng did not feel too much discomfort.

He climbed out of the pond, his clothes were soaked.

He took a deep breath, his face full of displeasure.

At this time, Yan Ruyu and the others had gone far away, leaving only Gu Sheng standing by the pond.

Gu Sheng did not say much, he turned around and returned to the hut.

Then, he closed his eyes and mobilized the divine power in his body.

With the blessing of the Great Emperor's Heart, a warm breath surged out of his body, gradually drying the wet clothes.

Strings of water droplets evaporated from the clothes, turning into wisps of white gas, rising up.

After the clothes were dried, Gu Sheng sat on the couch and sighed.

Women, especially beautiful women, are really untrustworthy!

Thinking about it, he looked at his heart.

This group of demons are quite powerful, and he can't escape at all.

And why are they trapping him like this?

Getting married?

This doesn't seem very realistic.

Because he belongs to the human race, he can't practice the magic of these demons at all.

If he practices by force, it can only be neither fish nor fowl, and in the end, it may end up in vain.

After thinking about it, it is the kingly way to find a way to improve his divine power.

You know, at this time, the heart of the emperor is immersed in his own life spring. If he can absorb more holy blood and temper his flesh and blood more, wouldn't it be a perfect plan?

Thinking of this, Gu Sheng made a decision in his heart.

He no longer hesitated and sat cross-legged directly.

After closing his eyes, he began to control his consciousness and go deep into the mysterious and powerful power in his body.

Gu Sheng focused his consciousness on this "cauldron" and let it slowly rotate around the heart of the emperor.

Every rotation seemed to be looking for the weakness of the heart of the emperor.

However, the Emperor's Heart seemed like an indestructible rock. No matter how hard Gu Sheng tried, it was as stable as a mountain and did not respond.

Gu Sheng was not discouraged. He knew that this would be a protracted battle.

As time went on, Gu Sheng's "Ding" spun faster and faster.

At the same time, each impact was more powerful.

After countless attempts, Gu Sheng felt a little different.

In a violent impact, the "Ding" seemed to have touched a certain mechanism in the Emperor's Heart.

With a slight sound, a few drops of holy blood were knocked out of the heart of the emperor.

These drops of holy blood flowed slowly in Gu Sheng's life spring, emitting dazzling light, illuminating the entire life spring.

Gu Sheng could feel the power contained in this holy blood, which was a power that could transform him.

Gu Sheng was delighted, knowing that his plan had succeeded in the first step.

But this was just the beginning. If he could get more holy blood and temper his flesh and blood more deeply, Yan Ruyu and other monsters would naturally be no problem.

In this way, after getting a few drops of holy blood, Gu Sheng immediately ran the Great Circulation to absorb these holy bloods with energy as soon as possible.

After a whole day, Gu Sheng's blood and qi were slightly calmed down.

He opened his eyes and looked at his body.

At this time, his whole body was still red, because the holy blood energy in the heart of the emperor had not been completely absorbed and dissipated.

"Thump, thump!"

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the hut.

Gu Sheng looked up and saw Bai Yiyi pushing the door open.

"Oh! Great, your cultivation has improved a lot."

Bai Yiyi was full of praise after seeing Gu Sheng's appearance.

Gu Sheng looked at Bai Yiyi and saw a sly look in her eyes.

"Why are you here?"

Gu Sheng asked casually.

"I came to see you."

Bai Yiyi said and sat beside Gu Sheng.

"Tsk!"

Gu Sheng looked disdainful and then adjusted his breath to stabilize his mind.

Seeing this scene, Bai Yiyi's voice was a bit teasing: "It seems that you finally realized the preciousness of the Emperor's Heart. You didn't think so at the beginning. How do you plan to repay me now?"

Bai Yiyi's eyes revealed an indescribable charm, as if he could see into people's hearts.

Gu Sheng smiled slightly and stood up, with a sunny smile on his face.

"Repay? Are you kidding? How can I repay you?"

Bai Yiyi also stood up.

Her long hair fell like a waterfall, and the strand of white hair was particularly romantic.

Especially the action of lifting her hair, which was full of soft power.

Then, she walked lightly in front of Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng smelled the faint floral fragrance on her body, and suddenly felt a sense of enjoyment.

"I think you can use your true energy to compensate me."

Bai Yiyi said softly, with her fingers gently resting on Gu Sheng's shoulders.

Looking at Bai Yiyi's red lips slightly opened, with a hint of temptation.

Gu Sheng is not a fool, and naturally understands Bai Yiyi's implication.

"Use true energy to compensate? This sounds like a good idea."

Gu Sheng raised a playful smile at the corner of his mouth, and deliberately pretended to answer Bai Yiyi seriously.

Just when Bai Yiyi was a little dazed, Gu Sheng stretched out his hand and pretended to hold Bai Yiyi in his arms.

Bai Yiyi didn't expect Gu Sheng to be so direct, a trace of panic flashed across her face, and she quickly dodged backwards.

At the same time, a faint blush appeared on her face.

"Mr. Gu, what are you doing?"

Bai Yiyi's voice was a little shy, and she was obviously surprised by Gu Sheng's behavior.

Gu Sheng did not stop because of Bai Yiyi's avoidance, and his eyes flashed with lustful light.

"Since you have brought it up, I will naturally satisfy your wish."

Gu Sheng said, and continued to move closer to Bai Yiyi.

Bai Yiyi suddenly felt the warmth from Gu Sheng's palm, and her body couldn't help but relax a little.

At this time, Bai Yiyi felt an inexplicable sense of enjoyment in her heart.

She knew she shouldn't be like this, but Gu Sheng's breath made her feel at ease.

Gu Sheng looked at the blush on Bai Yiyi's face and teased: "Fairy Bai, are you shy? I thought you were a bold woman."

"Hehe..."

Bai Yiyi was amused by Gu Sheng's words. She gently pushed Gu Sheng's hand away and returned to her usual calmness.

"Mr. Gu, you really love to joke. I came here to tell you something else."

Bai Yiyi tidied her clothes and barely calmed down her restless emotions.

"I'm not joking."

Gu Sheng said cheerfully.

"Don't make a fuss. I'm telling you the truth."

Bai Yiyi frowned slightly, looking serious.

Gu Sheng saw that the joke was enough, so he nodded and said, "Okay, what's the matter, tell me? Are you going to take me to another place?"

After that, Gu Sheng pointed to the corner of the thatched house and said, "Take a good look at how many holes there are in this thatched house. Fortunately, it's not windy and rainy, otherwise, it would rain heavily outside and drizzle inside."

Bai Yiyi looked at the thatched house and rolled her eyes at Gu Sheng.

Then, she took a deep breath and decided to tell him the truth directly.

"Gu Sheng, I'll tell you the truth. Recently, a young man with a rare physique appeared in the Ji family of Donghuang. Their clansmen plan to use us as a trial to test the strength of the young man."

Bai Yiyi said seriously.

"Hmm? Trial?"

Gu Sheng heard this, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

"Hehe..."

Gu Sheng sneered, "So what if it's a rare physique? We are not vegetarians either. At worst, we can fight them."

Bai Yiyi looked at Gu Sheng's confident look, feeling helpless and a little worried.

She shook her head and said, "Mr. Gu, don't be too confident. The power of the Ji family is not something we can easily fight against. Moreover, His Highness has ordered a retreat. We cannot hold on."

Gu Sheng's face darkened. He didn't expect that even Yan Ruyu would choose to retreat.

"Retreat? Why retreat? Are we just going to be slaughtered like this?"

Bai Yiyi sighed. She knew that Gu Sheng had a strong self-esteem, but the reality was cruel.

"We are not at the mercy of others, but we need to preserve our strength and wait for the opportunity. If we go head-on now, it will only cost us more."

Gu Sheng was silent. He knew what Bai Yiyi said made sense.

But he was still unwilling. He looked up at the sky, as if searching for something.

"Okay, I'll think about it, but before that, I need time to digest the news."

"Digesting this news?"

Bai Yiyi looked angry.

"Mr. Gu, take a closer look. I am the only one here to inform you this time. The others are already retreating. Listen to me and leave now without hesitation."

Bai Yiyi urged.

"Now?"

Gu Sheng was stunned, "Okay, wait for me."

When Gu Sheng turned around and returned to the hut, dozens of miles away from the plum blossom forest, Yan Ruyu was walking among the mountains and mountains with his followers.

"stop!"

Suddenly, there was a cold sound in the air.

A flash of alertness flashed across Yan Ruyu's brows, and her followers immediately prepared for battle.

"Your Highness, be careful!"

A female warrior stepped directly in front of Yan Ruyu, preparing to resist.

This female warrior is about middle-aged, wearing a golden armor covering her body. The sword at her waist has been removed from her body, ready to deal with possible crises.

Her name is Jin Jia, and she is Yan Ruyu's personal guard. She has rich experience and quick reactions.

"Your Highness, it seems there is trouble!"

There was a hint of vigilance in Jin Jia's voice.

At this moment, a lavender figure descended from the sky accompanied by several followers.

Their movements were light and fast, and they were obviously masters.

The man in purple has a handsome face and a sense of arrogance in his eyes.

His eyes fell directly on Yan Ruyu, as if he already knew Yan Ruyu's identity.

"Yan Ruyu, a descendant of the Demon Emperor, haha..."

The man in purple had a hint of provocation in his voice.

Jin Jia held the sword and stepped forward, blocking Yan Ruyu's way.

She asked with cold eyes: "Who are you? Why are you blocking our way?"

The man in purple smiled slightly, "Who am I? You are not qualified to know yet."

After saying that, the man in purple turned his gaze to Yan Ruyu: "I heard that the descendants of the Demon Emperor are extremely talented, so I came here today to compete and see if they are worthy of the name."

Jin Jia frowned, and then said coldly: "Our Highness is not interested in competing with you, so please get out of the way."

A trace of displeasure flashed in the eyes of the man in purple, "Why, don't the descendants of the Demon Emperor even have the courage to accept challenges?"

Jin Jia was unmoved, knowing that this was a provocation and an excuse for the other party to cause a fight. (End of chapter)
