Chapter 2088 - 1659: Concern from Duo Shu

Fufeng Tianlan looked at Gu Changsheng who had entered the Misty Prohibition, a mocking smile appearing beneath the veil on her small face.

Bearing the lives of my Ancient Country He Clan people, Gu Changsheng, you must not disappoint me, because the consequence of disappointing me is that you have no value left and only death...

"Miss, she went in, we..." Next to Fufeng Tianlan, Jin Luoyi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, watching helplessly as Gu Changsheng walked into the Misty Prohibition and pulled Jin Linchuan in. How could Jin Luoyi not be anxious?

Jin Luoyi was anxious, and the remaining hundred treasure hunters were also anxious!

You say, what kind of situation is this?

They bumped into walls, used all their strength, and still didn’t make it to the edge of the Misty Prohibition. This woman came, casually extended a foot, and with just that foot, she went in!

Let it be that she went in, she even took her entire group, not missing a single one, they all went in!

Pulling one, dragging one, yanking one...

What’s this about?

What is this?

Is this like pulling out radishes or what?

As Gu Changsheng reached out a final time, trying to pull Black Man Duo Shu in, someone couldn’t hold back any longer!

Can’t wait any longer, if they keep waiting, all of this woman’s companions would be in there, and what about them? Wouldn’t the treasures inside be out of their reach?

So, when Gu Changsheng’s hand extended from the Misty Prohibition, a hand blocked Gu Changsheng’s hand, waiting for Gu Changsheng to grab it and pull him in...

Inside the Misty Prohibition, Gu Changsheng looked at the hand thrust in front of her suddenly, was first taken aback, then couldn’t help but twitch her mouth, poked her head out and slapped that extending hand. She gritted her teeth, saying, "Darn it, are you trying to pass off as real or what? Do you really think I’m blind? Get lost!"

That slap from Gu Changsheng was loud and clear, causing the person pretending to be Black Man Duo Shu to stagger back a step, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth...

With strength surpassing that of the Transformative Realm, Gu Changsheng’s slap was something ordinary people couldn’t withstand. Even as a martial artist, he was jolted by Gu Changsheng’s Inner Strength until his whole chest cavity almost shifted!

"Miss..." Beside Fufeng Tianlan, He Miao was agitated, "Miss, can’t wait any longer. Once the last person goes through the Prohibition, Gu Changsheng won’t come out again!"

"No rush!" Unlike the anxious He Miao, Fufeng Tianlan was calm, eyes sweeping through the Misty Prohibition, lips continuously curving...

"Black Man, what are you still stunned for? Hurry over? Pulling you all over is quite tiring!" Gu Changsheng watched Black Man Duo Shu, standing like a pillar, not moving, couldn’t help but extend her hand impatiently, urging.

Darn it, this Black Man is really troublesome, it’s already this moment, and he’s still distracted!

It’s unbelievable!

Did he really think that pulling people into the Misty Prohibition was easy?

Couldn’t he see that she only dared to extend one hand?

Darn it, her feet actually were hanging in mid-air!

Floating or not?

The Misty Prohibition was actually a big pit, a truly huge pit, not even telling a lie!

Finally, under Gu Changsheng’s urging, Black Man Duo Shu seemed to awaken suddenly and extended his hand towards Gu Changsheng!

This time, Gu Changsheng, who usually didn’t care about the propriety between men and women, was even more unrestrained, grabbed Duo Shu’s hand and pulled him inside...

Before Black Man Duo Shu fell into the Misty Prohibition, he glanced faintly towards Fufeng Tianlan’s direction...

In his eyes, there seemed to be a trace of hatred!

This woman!

In Smelting City Mercenary Alliance, what did she do to his Hall Master, causing him to have thoughts of giving up on life?

Though Black Man Duo Shu was selfish, he was absolutely loyal to Shi Wujue, tolerating no harm to Shi Wujue’s existence, even if it is Fufeng Tianlan, it won’t do!

Beyond the Misty Prohibition, was an immensely deep pit. Gu Changsheng would pull people in and then place them at the pit’s bottom, quickly climbing out to pull the next person!

After pulling the last person, Duo Shu, Gu Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief. Oh my god, being someone different really was quite stressful and exhausting!

If I didn’t have a body capable of passing through this barrier, wouldn’t that be great? I’d save myself the hassle of running back and forth, wouldn’t I?

"Southern Emperor..."

As he was slowly crawling from the edge of the Misty Prohibition to the underground pit, Black Man Duo Shu called out in a deep voice.

"Hmm?" Gu Changsheng responded nonchalantly, puzzled at why the usually reticent Black Man suddenly called out to him. Could it be that the Black Man is actually afraid of the dark?

The idea seemed impossible to Gu Changsheng.

"If possible, stay away from the three people beside Jin Luoyi!" For reasons unknown, Duo Shu intuitively sensed that Fufeng Tianlan had changed in some way since they last met!

In the past, Fufeng Tianlan made no secret of her hatred towards Gu Changsheng.

But this time, the Fufeng Tianlan that reappeared before them concealed her hatred for Gu Changsheng very well!

A woman driven by hatred is not frightening; her actions are somewhat predictable. But a woman capable of hiding her hatred is quite terrifying. Even Black Man Duo Shu finds this new Fufeng Tianlan hard to read!

Just the fact that she nearly caused the death of his master makes Duo Shu feel that his worries aren’t unfounded!

"Oh my god, Black Man, is it about to rain red today? Rarely, you actually care about me!" Gu Changsheng was instantly surprised upon hearing this; he was well aware of Duo Shu’s dislike for talking and his disdain towards him!

Isn’t it because I cannot reciprocate Shi Wujue’s feelings?

It’s understandable for Duo Shu to dislike me!

However, hearing concern from Duo Shu made Gu Changsheng feel a sudden sense of being liked!

"You!" Duo Shu blushed at Gu Changsheng’s words and couldn’t help but grit his teeth, "I’m not concerned about you; I’m thinking about my City Lord!"

And for the sake of the entire Ancient Country He Clan!

These words, Duo Shu kept to himself!

"Alright, alright, don’t worry, Shi Wujue already told me -- isn’t it just a woman blinded by jealousy? I can handle it; if necessary, I’ll just stay away from her! But Black Man, thank you, thank you for expressing such concern for me, whether it’s for me or for your master!" In the darkness, Gu Changsheng smiled at Shi Wujue, his heart tinged with warmth.

Indeed, being cared about feels really good, a genuine warmth from the heart, no matter where one is!

"Do you actually take my words seriously? I’m serious, that woman is truly hard to deal with!" Duo Shu grew a bit anxious seeing Gu Changsheng’s nonchalant attitude. Although he hoped that the second Cold Iron Key would fall into Fufeng Tianlan’s hands—because it involves the affairs of their Ancient Country and concerns whether Gu Changsheng would proceed to Divine Demise Land—but he equally didn’t want Gu Changsheng to suffer under Fufeng Tianlan, because that would distress his Hall Master...

Duo Shu doesn’t want to see his Hall Master endure any more suffering...

"I know, I know, but you forget that right now I don’t seem so easy to injure, not easily killed. If that woman could really kill me, that would actually be a blessing!" Gu Changsheng continued speaking as he crawled down.

However, as he said this, Gu Changsheng’s mood turned somewhat somber.

Whoever knows that they might become a Demon Head and harm those around them would not feel good. Gu Changsheng feels this way now; she doesn’t know if Baby Jin Bao’s words are alarmist, nor does she know if she will become a Demon Lord, a symbol of darkness and destruction. However, she certainly doesn’t want to hurt those close to her...

"..." Hearing Gu Changsheng’s words, Duo Shu was struck silent...

Indeed!

He somehow forgot that the primary concern now should not be Gu Changsheng being disadvantaged, given that Gu Changsheng has greatly changed since the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms journey!

Perhaps he should be more worried about Fufeng Tianlan, about whether she might suffer under Gu Changsheng!

"Southern Emperor, that leading woman mustn’t come to harm!" Almost as soon as he figured it out, Duo Shu expressed his concern.

Fufeng Tianlan is the only woman in the Ancient Country Royal Family; she’s the key blood lead for opening Divine Demise Land!

She absolutely cannot die; otherwise, his Hall Master wouldn’t tolerate her so much!

"Alright, I’m aware. Your master specifically stopped me earlier; obviously, to tell me not to harm that woman. Tsk tsk... I’m even starting to wonder about her identity—how could she have Shi Wujue petitioning for her indirectly? Could it be that she has an affair with Shi Wujue?" In the deep tunnel, Gu Changsheng’s eyes flashed brightly, unable to resist gossiping.

"..." Duo Shu’s gaze flickered momentarily, ultimately choosing not to engage with Gu Changsheng’s speculation.

He couldn’t possibly tell Gu Changsheng that Fufeng Tianlan is his Hall Master’s fiancée, could he?

The excuse once used by his Hall Master to reassure Gu Changsheng actually exists—doesn’t that completely crush his Hall Master’s chance?
