Chapter 2069: Like a Dream in Nanke, Where Are the Promised Scars?

This invisible barrier that they’ve been unable to move or cross for five days, can Gu Changsheng actually extend her hand through it?

Zhou Mu and the others are unsure, because they’ve been blocked by this invisible barrier for so long…

But, if Gu Changsheng’s hand can’t reach through, what then?

Are they doomed to be separated by just a step away, unable to see each other?

How could Zhou Mu and the others not be anxious?

If they can’t see Gu Changsheng, they’re worried, they’re restless, they’re in agony, but upon seeing Gu Changsheng, they’re faced with such a scene…

Can it really reach through?

Can it really reach through?

They’re unsure, and they don’t know the outcome…

Then…

Under the intense gaze of Zhou Mu and the others…

Gu Changsheng’s outstretched hand seemed to pass through the invisible barrier in front of them as if it were nothing…

“Slap!”

A very loud slap sound rang in Yuan Bao’s ears…

Yuan Bao instinctively raised his hand to cover his head…

“I’m about to die…”

Gu Changsheng lifted her head and spoke quietly.

As soon as she said this, Zhou Mu and the others’ hearts tightened even more…

About to die?

About to die…

If there’s one thing Zhou Mu and the others fear hearing the most, it’s undoubtedly the word “die” coming from Gu Changsheng’s mouth…

“My dear…” Yuan Bao was on the verge of tears, what is his dear doing?

She’s perfectly fine up here, and her hand has reached through…

This proves that his dear can definitely come through the invisible barrier, it’s a good thing!

Why would his dear say she’s about to die?

Moreover, even though she said that, why did she slap him before saying it?

Is it because they can’t get through this invisible barrier?

At this moment, Yuan Bao really felt like he could die; he thought he was being played by his dear again…

No doubt, in Yuan Bao’s heart, that’s exactly what he believed…

“Come out!”

Almost simultaneously, Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue reached out and grabbed the hand Gu Changsheng reached through…

The joy of a regained chance made Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue feel reborn, their entire aura filled with joyous emotions in an instant…

Grasping Gu Changsheng’s hand, Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue almost without needing to discuss, immediately exerted force and dragged Gu Changsheng out of the invisible barrier…

In the moment she was dragged out, Zhou Mu tightly embraced Gu Changsheng, and Shi Wujue also let go and stepped back…

The world knows she’s Zhou Mu’s fiancée…

The only person who can justifiably embrace Gu Changsheng…

Shi Wujue knew, but he didn’t want to dwell on it…

Yet, at this moment, though Shi Wujue also desperately wanted to step forward and give Gu Changsheng a hug, he could only hold back in front of Zhou Mu…

Because he doesn’t deserve it…

His status doesn’t allow him to make such an outrageous move…

His outstretched hand hasn’t been withdrawn yet, and Shi Wujue gazes greedily at the disheveled Gu Changsheng, heart aching, not knowing what she has gone through below the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms to end up in such a state…

“Evildoer, I’m about to die…”

Leaning against her dear evildoer’s chest, Gu Changsheng lifted her head and spoke gently, while her hands unconsciously covered her own stomach…

“What’s wrong? Did you suffer an injury?” Zhou Mu asked anxiously upon hearing, immediately examining Gu Changsheng’s body, unable to leave her side for even a moment…

“I haven’t eaten anything for five days…” At this moment, Gu Changsheng only felt hunger, extreme hunger, her stomach grumbling, truly feeling like her chest was pressed against her back. She couldn’t understand how, in such a starving state, she managed to climb up from the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms, where her energy came from…

“…” Zhou Mu was initially stunned upon hearing, but immediately hugged Gu Changsheng tightly, as if trying to fuse her into his bones, unwilling to let go, “You woman! You woman!”

The joy of regained chance moistens Zhou Mu’s eyes, deep as a Cold Pool.

He never wants to lose her again, never want to helplessly watch her disappear from his sight again!

This feeling makes Zhou Mu anguished!

“Evildoer, I’m fine, I’m back! I’m back!” Gu Changsheng stretched out her arms and embraced her dear evildoer back, her lover for life, her lips involuntarily curving into a smile…

This familiar ambergris scent, indeed, can bring peace.

As long as she’s by her dear evildoer’s side, Gu Changsheng can find that familiar sense of security!

It’s all passed!

All passed!

The pain and suffering encountered beneath the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms are all over!

In this moment, Gu Changsheng only wanted to nestle in this familiar embrace until the end of time!

“Cough cough…”

Yuan Bao rubbed his head, standing to the side, looking at his master and his lady embracing, almost moved to tears. But, seeing Shi Wujue and the Black Man standing beside him, as well as Baby Jin Bao with wide eyes, and the bashful Youngster Linchuan…

Yuan Bao felt he should make some noise, at least, to interrupt his master and his lady from continuing their entanglement…

Such tenderness could certainly exist, but shouldn’t the place matter too?

With so many people around, including minors and children, it seemed, somewhat, rather inappropriate…

“Cough cough…” Yuan Bao’s cough immediately snapped Gu Changsheng back to reality. Embarrassed, he glanced around, meeting several worried gazes, and immediately offered an awkward smile…

Well, got carried away for a moment there!

Quite shameful indeed…

“Yuan Bao! What are you standing there for? Go make me some food! Do you really want to starve to death?”

Gu Changsheng, being who he is, always finds someone to take the blame when he’s embarrassed, and almost always, it’s Yuan Bao, none other…

“…” Yuan Bao’s mouth twitched. He pouted but resigned himself to the task, going off to prepare food. However, before that, he very tactfully whisked away the dumbfounded Youngster Linchuan and Baby Jin Bao…

Under the pretext of helping with the cooking, Yuan Bao actually felt that the pillars seemed a bit too many, and if they stayed any longer, who knows how embarrassed his lady would become…

With Youngster Linchuan and Baby Jin Bao taken away, only Gu Changsheng, Zhou Mu, and Shi Wujue master and servant remained at the edge of the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms…

Shi Wujue also appeared slightly embarrassed, coughing a couple of times to change the subject, “Cough cough… So, how is your body? Why does it look…”

So shabby?

With pieces hardly covering the skin?

Shi Wujue didn’t finish his sentence…

However, Zhou Mu’s clothing was already draped over Gu Changsheng’s body…

Seeing this, Shi Wujue’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch. He suppressed his emotions several times but finally couldn’t hold back, saying in a deep voice, “What I mean, as the City Lord, is in such a state of disarray, is she hurt anywhere on her body?”

This Zhou boy indeed never changes!

Why is he so defensive?

He’s concerned about Gu Changsheng’s physical condition, not her exposed skin!

This man!

Truly detestable!

“Cough cough, well, I can examine myself just fine! Just fine! You forget, I am a Doctor! I am a Doctor!”

Even Gu Changsheng felt the atmosphere was a bit off, so he quickly spoke up.

Then, slowly turned around, and shielded by Zhou Mu, started to examine her own body…

She was really exhausted!

Even the slightest movement would tug at the whole body’s pain, but when Gu Changsheng removed Zhou Mu’s outer clothing and took off her own tattered clothes, her eyes gradually widened, filled with disbelief…

“What is happening?”

Gu Changsheng murmured almost dazedly.

“What’s wrong? Is there an injury?” Zhou Mu’s voice came from behind Gu Changsheng, laden with deep concern.

Behind Zhou Mu, Gu Changsheng shook her head, blinking her eyes, her expression of surprise and confusion growing even more severe…

It’s real!

Not just an illusion…

Gu Changsheng extended her arm, examining it up and down…

She vividly remembered, when climbing up from the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms, there was once a loose stone she grabbed, and when she fell again, a sharp stone had grazed her arm…

The sharp pain was something Gu Changsheng still recalled!

Gu Changsheng thought surely her arm would be torn and ragged…

But, the reality was different…

On Gu Changsheng’s arm, there wasn’t even the slightest wound, not even a hint of redness, let alone torn flesh…

It simply didn’t exist!

Upon hearing her evildoer’s question, Gu Changsheng felt a bit dumb…

When turning her hand over…

It was still slender and white as before, without a single mark…

Gu Changsheng suddenly felt as if she were still dreaming…

If there weren’t any scars elsewhere, it could be dismissed, but if she managed to climb up from the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms, her hands played no small part!

Using them, she constantly grabbed onto rock ledges, leveraging to climb up…

Due to friction, her hands, even if not battered, should have been at least a little red or swollen, right?

But no!

None of that!

Her hands were perfectly fine too!
