"Either cut through the confusion with a swift blade, making decisions promptly to complete the transaction..."
"Or don’t even look at it..."
Gu Shen stared at the snow-white scale, his expression sowhat somber. A sudden flash of inspiration had cost him two hours of his life span, which was indeed precious... Two years of life to kill Han Dang; currently, there was no better way, so he had to accept it!
But two hours of life to exchange for a single question.
This deal, he should consider himself at a loss.
"At least it’s not without gain... At least I confird one thing."
Gu Shen muttered, "The devil can be killed."
He had been unable to deal with the devil within the ruler, the only thod was to completely seal it with "Miracle Silver."
But from the response just given by the "Scales of Fate," this creature, though formidable, was not immortal!
"If the scale can find a way, I can certainly do it too..."
Gu Shen consoled himself.
Two hours weren’t too much of a loss, not too much...
He stepped away from the prayer and pushed open the wooden hut.
"Mr. Xiao Gu?"
Li Qingci looked up nervously and asked, "Did the prayer go smoothly?"
"It’s alright."
Gu Shen smiled slightly, and with self-mockery, said, "I sacrificed over two years... hmm, plus two hours, to ask an insignificant question."
"It was Qingci’s oversight."
Li Qingci was slightly startled, realizing what Gu Shen’s "two hours" implied, she said apologetically, "The Prayer Technique is no trifling matter; once a request is made, there must be a price... I assud Mr. Gu would act with careful consideration."
Gu Shen smiled bitterly, "You needn’t apologize, this ti it was my recklessness."
Before leaving, Gu Shen turned back to gaze at the scattered blueprints on the table.
He suddenly halted, looked toward Qingci, and asked, "Miss Qingci, since my ascent, it seems you have sothing you wanted to tell ?"
"I..."
Li Qingci held her white dress, her eyes hesitated briefly.
She indeed had many things she wanted to say, but Gu Shen’s reason for climbing the mountain wasn’t leisure, and at present, he was eager to return to the tundra; the words she had pondered over for many days weren’t suitable to say at this mont.
After a mont’s thought.
Li Qingci shook her head, concealing all her unusual feelings.
"It’s nothing..."
She smiled gently and said softly, "Mr. Xiao Gu, I wish you success on your journey."
Gu Shen looked at Li Qingci, sowhat suspicious.
He then lifted his gaze to the do.
He knew that Chu Ling could see everything here, and certainly what happened during Li Qingci’s secluded monts... but at this mont, the Spirit Sea was also tranquil.
Chu Ling seed to have nothing to say to him.
"Thanks for your blessing."
Gu Shen set off down the mountain and said sincerely, "Thank you, Miss Qingci, for your assistance with the prayer."
The snowstorm swept over Divine Temple Mountain, soon returning it to tranquility.
Li Qingci sat alone on the mountain, staring at the scattered blueprints on the table, lost in thought for a long ti.
She also raised her head.
The weather today at Divine Temple Mountain Top was bad.
Dark clouds swept across the sky, yet fortunately, several white flowers had risen, swaying with the wind.
On the mountain, the black clouds pressed down, stifling, but as long as there were a few small white flowers rising with the wind.
It would beco a beautiful scene.
Li Qingci watched, absorbed and forgetting everything, and then couldn’t help but cough, covering with a silk scarf, yet so blood still seeped out.
"Lady Divine."
She opened up the silk scarf, looking at the stains of blood, smiling softly as she asked, "Do you think... I will still be able to see the day the flowers bloom?"
