Chapter 3701 - 1797: Suspicion (Part 3)
"Old Hui..."
Guardian Spirit Hall's commandant Yue Gonghui was taken aback. The zone he was responsible for earlier was the Wu Rao Emperor Realm. Upon discovering Xu Xiaoshou's trail, he immediately came to report.
"Young Master Li?"
Yue Gonghui sought permission on whether he needed to approach.
Apart from Young Master Li's confidants, Tingyu Pavilion was not a place people dared to approach without necessity, as everyone knew it was his private space.
Yue Gongli remained silent.
His hand hovered over Dai'er's head, still suspended.
He sensed something was amiss; the strange thing was that every time he attempted Soul Search on Dai'er, accidents would happen, as if preventing him?
Previously, he was misled by Xu Xiaoshou's guidance.
It happened when he was caught off guard; hence Yue Gongli acknowledged the sword incident with the Ancestor Stone Carving.
But after being on guard, Yue Gongli remained confident. Even with the guidance of the two Xus, he should be able to regain some self-awareness.
Dai'er's little face scrunched up like a bun.
If there's something more painful than death, it's when the executioner dawdles, even sharpening the knife on site.
Young Master Li was too torturous...
Yue Gongli could read from her expression a silent fury.
Not moved by external things, he followed his intuition and struck his palm down β today, no one could stop him from conducting the Soul Search!
"Bang."
Dai'er's delicate body trembled and slowly collapsed to the ground.
Yue Gongli lowered his hand, expressionless.
He read her childhood, her struggles, her stratagems, her joy in joining Tingyu Pavilion, her growing admiration for Young Master Li, and her inferiority, her loneliness, her fragility...
The sound of water in Tingyu Pavilion gurgled, the cool breeze still lingered.
The young girl, unspoken in her springtime infatuation, was destined to be ignored.
"How is it?"
Hua Changdeng asked. He didn't know why Yue Gongli went through so much trouble, but Yue Gongli must have his reasons.
Nothing much... Yue Gongli's face was indifferent, but there was a trace of melancholy in his thoughts, "Am I too suspicious?"
Unmoved, he suddenly cast his gaze towards Yue Gonghui.
At that moment, he even had an impulse to rush over and slap Yue Gonghui, who seemed like he intended to obstruct his Soul Search, on the head to see what Yue Gonghui was thinking.
To come neither early nor late, but precisely at that time β was it truly a coincidence?
There are no coincidences in this world!
But that was the commandant of the Guardian Spirit Hall, not a maid of Tingyu Pavilion. Yue Gongli had this sense of proportion.
He ignored Yue Gonghui and others, stating decisively:
"Hua Changdeng, come with me to Wu Rao Emperor Realm. If we can capture Xu Xiaoshou alive, all the better."
"If not, we must ensure that his Body, Spirit, and Will all perish in the five great aristocratic families of the Holy Emperor, his resurrection ability is too terrifying."
Hua Changdeng nodded, transforming and departing.
Yue Gongli followed.
Positioned on the pavilion's pathways, Yue Gonghui and his people had fulfilled their duty and were preparing to leave and return to their posts.
"Let's go!"
With a wave of Yue Gonghui's hand, the old guards left.
As he was about to rise, he felt a weight on his shoulder, someone pressing him down, and then a slightly bitter elixir was stuffed into his mouth?
Turning his head...
"Young Master Li?"
Yue Gonghui was shocked, why was this happening?
The returning Yue Gongli, without a word, slammed his palm heavily on the old man's head: "I refuse to believe it!"
Yue Gonghui instinctively resisted, only to be shattered by the immense force.
After the Soul Search ended, he collapsed heavily to the ground, leaving behind an expressionless Yue Gongli standing silently in the gentle breeze of the pavilion's pathways.
"How is it?"
Hua Changdeng stood on the horizon, asking again.
With a long sigh, Yue Gongli spat on Yue Gonghui's body: "A disgraceful old fool, really makes me want to slay him with a sword, searching him was simply blinding!"
