"Yes, congratulations, you’ve been chosen by ."
Gu Shen smiled and said, "I’m going south for a trip, would you like to co with ?"
He chose Shen Li, very simple.
This guy is his second Angel Envoy candidate... the kind that can’t run away.
This mission is the perfect opportunity to recruit the Little Iron Man completely under his wing and make him thoroughly "one of us."
"Woohoo!"
Shen Li was ecstatic, then subdued his excited voice and cautiously asked, "Brother Gu! How many people in total? Am I the first one you ca to?"
"..."
Gu Shen was both amused and distressed, "Sangzhou Cave’s situation is still unclear, I won’t bring too many people, probably just three or four? You are the first."
"Woohoo! Woohoo!"
Shen Li continued to be ecstatic, then suddenly thought of sothing and gloomily said, "Who else won’t be Mu Qingyang, right?"
"Mu Qingyang needs to stay in Changye."
Gu Shen smiled and said, "The rger of the two continents has officially begun, and the handover matters of the Central City envoy need him to take over... Currently, he’s tied up, so this mission has nothing to do with him."
"Phew..."
Shen Li let out a long breath, his face showing a big satisfied smile.
Gu Shen couldn’t understand.
Why does this guy appear to be even happier knowing Mu Qingyang can’t go than knowing he can?
...
...
In a corner of Snow Forbidden City.
Mu Qingyang, who was attending the rger eting at the embassy, suddenly sneezed twice.
"Achoo! Achoo!"
He looked up in confusion.
This eting was extrely boring, Mu Qingyang was dozing off listening.
After two months, he sowhat regretted returning to Changye. He thought after coming back, even if it couldn’t be as thrilling as the Tundra mission, at least he would have a chance to practice and spar with Gu Shen every day, if not, he could at least play so casual matches with that little iron block... But who would have thought, after coming back what awaited him were just mountains of docunts piling up.
In the Changye rger, Gu Shen was the absolute hub——
Mu Qingyang is Gu Shen’s appointed "left arm," responsible for the preliminary docking tasks, involving many Fortresses and Jiangbei District negotiations, these are extrely complex and tedious tasks... The two continents need to engage in close cooperation, requiring one eting after another to confirm things.
He couldn’t afford to miss it.
This rger task’s "left arm and right hand" is like a seemingly ornate big net, appearing high-ranking, but in reality, it’s volunteer-based, laborious and tiring work.
He has volunteered.
The only thing sowhat comforting is that there really is two people for "left arm and right hand."
There’s another old acquaintance, suffering along with him.
On the other side of the eting’s long table, Li Qingsui sat upright, looking spirited...
The Li Family is the other side of the "left arm and right hand."
Li Qingsui is the other "rger" teammate nad by Gu Shen.
Several tis Mu Qingyang wanted to approach for conversation but didn’t find the opportunity; this future Family Head of the Li Family has an extrely hectic schedule, besides the "two continents rger," there are other trivial matters entangled.
He doesn’t quite understand, already being so busy, how Li Qingsui manages to seriously face these dull etings?
Moreover... this girl seems to have been cold-faced recently, seldom speaking to others, even ntioning Gu Shen’s na doesn’t help; could it be Li Qingsui had a fall-out with Gu Shen?
Mu Qingyang rubbed his nose, feeling bitter.
The current Changye is not even as good as Jiuning.
He is rely a martial artist, a brute.
Who would have thought he’d need to deal with so many docunts?
Every day overwheld, unable to sleep peacefully.
Luckily, the Family Master cares deeply for him, often coming over to provide comfort, but besides comfort, it’s even more important to provide encouragent, asking him to persist, persist, and persist.
Such days, who knows how long it’ll take to endure before seeing the light?
...
...
Deep alley, loneliness, desolation.
Shen Li was sowhat apprehensive.
He never expected Gu Shen would bring him to this place... Bai’s Ancestral Hall!
"Brother Gu, the third person you ntioned, couldn’t possibly be that guy, right?"
Shen Li had always had a bad impression of Bai Xiu.
Years ago, the discussions in Changye about the "Gu Bai" pair were rampant, even now many people believe, in terms of strength, Bai Xiu is the first among the younger generation of Changye!
As Gu Shen’s ardent supporter, he certainly didn’t like Bai Xiu.
Even after knowing later that Gu Shen and Bai Xiu have a pretty good relationship... he still couldn’t change this impression.
Because Bai Xiu didn’t really have good relations with others.
’Little Xiuzi’ is a very "real" person.
He pursues the great path, breaking through self.
On this journey, he only rembers those of the sa caliber.
Besides Gu Shen, the current one he could barely rember is Mu Wanqiu... As for Shen Li, Bai Xiu has only heard this na, knows Shen Li has a good relationship with Gu Shen, but more than that, he’s uninterested and won’t rember it.
"What, are you afraid of him?"
Gu Shen chuckled.
Shen Li puffed up his chest, trying to make his voice louder, "Who would be afraid of him..."
But his voice gradually lowered in the second half.
Because soone walked out from the deep alley.
Shen Li nervously said the last two words, discovering the one who ca out was a beautiful silhouette.
"Gu Shen, you’ve co."
Bai Lu, draped in a black cloak, glanced at Shen Li, speaking without reservation, "The things about Sangzhou Cave... the Family Master has already inford us, Little Xiuzi is not interested in those Extraordinary Creatures."
Shen Li hid behind Gu Shen, cautiously watching this witch.
Earlier, when Gu Shen went to North Continent, he was tornted by this witch quite considerably, causing him apprehension now upon seeing her.
After ensuring safety, Shen Li quickly shouted, "Brother Gu, I retract my previous words, Bai Xiu is actually pretty good, in short, just don’t let this crazy woman co in!"
"???"
Bai Lu’s eyes contained anger, she raised her hand in a grip, and a small whip appeared: "Believe I’ll whip you to death?"
"Miss Bai."
Gu Shen lightly sighed, smiling, "Since we’re here, why not let go in and sit for a while, I’ll speak to him personally... If he’s really not interested in Sangzhou Cave, I won’t force him."
"Fine."
Bai Lu nodded, her gaze constantly lingering on Shen Li, coldly saying, "In that case... Only you go in."
"Brother Gu, no, you must save ."
Shen Li felt a strong sense of foreboding.
"Thanks..."
Gu Shen made a salute, then without any hesitation, left Shen Li behind and walked into the deep alley.
The Little Iron Man’s personality always calls for a beating——
But he has thick skin and is sure to endure Bai Lu’s whip.
...
...
Outside the alley, Thorny Dreams blossod everywhere.
Shen Li’s [Iron Eater] is a rather comndable strong attack ability, but unfortunately ran into Bai Lu, which completely restrained him, even wanting to escape is impossible... the two are similar in realm, but when fighting it’s a one-sided affair.
Monts later.
Thorny Dreams retracted.
The long whip, like vines, wrapped circle after circle, binding Shen Li tightly to the ground, Bai Lu stomped heavily on the Little Iron Man’s back, forcing him into a reverse arch.
Bai Lu’s eyes were filled with smugness, she leaned down with a smile and asked, "Recognize your mistake?"
"Mistake, mistake."
Shen Li hurriedly pleaded, bowing his head and kowtowing: "Good sister, spare ."
That call of "good sister" caused Bai Lu’s pretty face to blush with two streaks of red.
She let out a fierce snort, then another foot, heavily pressing on Shen Li’s back.
"I’ve already pleaded, why are you still hitting ?"
Shen Li was confused.
Bai Lu coldly snorted, not speaking further.
She turned back to look at the alley, thinking it should be ending soon... Given Little Xiuzi’s impregnable personality, once decided, he never changes.
Even if the Family Head personally advises, it might not sway him.
But just the next mont.
The small door in the deep alley was pushed open with laughter.
Gu Shen and Bai Xiu stepped out one after the other.
The forr’s face was full of a clear smile.
Bai Lu could faintly hear the last bit of their conversation.
"So it’s agreed... If a fight breaks out..."
"Everything except Vermilion Bird, leave it to you."
