Even if it’s an illusionary realm, he still hoped he could wallow in his mother’s voice for just a little while longer!
Just a little while!
"My son, where is your grandpa?"
Gu Changsheng’s voice ca from beneath the entangling Cold Iron Shackles. The cold iron was icy, emitting waves of chill that made one’s hair stand on end.
"My grandpa? My Old Handso Grandpa... boo hoo... my Old Handso Grandpa is missing! Aunt Cui, Auntie Qiu, and Aunt Shuang Jiang told that my Old Handso Grandpa went to find my grandma... boo hoo..."
At the ntion of his Old Handso Grandpa, the little dumpling started crying imdiately.
The sound of the little dumpling’s crying echoed loudly in the quiet guest room.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"..."
Amidst the little dumpling’s cries, the sound of chains clashing could be heard from the bed.
The little dumpling heard it, his eyes wide with disbelief. This ti, he no longer thought it was all an illusion!
Bound and unable to rub his eyes, the little dumpling blinked his big eyes hard, trying to blink away the tears so he could see the scene clearly in front of him...
"Mother? Mother! Mother, you’ve really woken up!"
Finally, the little dumpling saw it clearly!
He saw the person struggling under the encircling black chains!
It was none other than his own mother...
And at this mont, his mother’s eyes were open! They were open!
His mother had finally woken up, able to speak with him, able to be by his side...
"Mother!"
The little dumpling exclaid in excitent, bouncing towards the bed!
"Do not co closer!"
Gu Changsheng’s cold command rang in the little dumpling’s ears.
Upon hearing this, the little dumpling paused, his body bouncing like a little zombie, staring at his awakened mother on the bed with surprise and uncertainty, hesitantly saying, "Mother?"
Why wouldn’t she let him co closer?
Could it be that his mother still didn’t rember him?
That shouldn’t be, his mother had clearly just called his na!
"Your Uncle Wood, he still has lingering demonic energy on him, it could harm you!"
Gu Changsheng’s slightly hoarse voice ca through again.
She channeled her inner strength to tear at the chains entwining her body, only to find it was futile. Upon this realization, the weakness that had accompanied her awakening turned her face dark, her Phoenix Eyes glaring intensely at the shackles on her hands, shackles as thick as a child’s arm!
"Thousand-Year Cold Iron! Who values so highly as to use even the Thousand-Year Cold Iron? Are they planning to imprison until I die in so desolate mountain if my soul doesn’t return?"
Looking at the clanking Thousand-Year Cold Iron Shackles on her hands, Gu Changsheng’s face was grim! Grim!
She woke up full of hope, expecting family anxiously waiting by her bed, or friends quietly weeping for her... Who would have thought she’d be greeted by a heap of Thousand-Year Cold Iron Shackles binding her tightly?
She was tied up like an iron zongzi!
It’s simply...
With the bloodthirsty aura on her barely dispelled, Gu Changsheng suddenly felt very agitated. If she could, she would really, really want to fall into demonhood again!
That would be better than being bound like an iron zongzi and then left in so godforsaken corner where neither birds nor chickens would set foot!
"Bang bang bang!"
As soon as Gu Changsheng’s words fell, the little dumpling standing by the bed couldn’t resist mimicking a few little zombie jumps, and eagerly spoke up to protest, "Mother, mother, it’s my Peacock, Lion, and Tiger! He’s the one who tied you up like this. I tried to stop him, I couldn’t, so mother, you see..."
As he spoke, the little dumpling pointed at himself with his small chin, "So, the Peacock, Lion, and Tiger even tied up too..."
Underneath the Thousand-Year Cold Iron, hearing this, Gu Changsheng imdiately looked toward her son. What she saw stunned her. In her Phoenix Eyes, a hint of ferocity flashed!
Good!
Very good!
Really, very good indeed!
Binding her and her evildoer was understandable, but that damned Flower Peacock Yue Xilou even tied up her adorable son, making him a zongzi too!
Now they were truly complete, the three of them, their little family, all turned into zongzis!
"Mother, don’t be afraid, I will definitely save you. Once I get out, I’ll poison my bad Lion Tiger until he’s a toad..." The little dumpling hopped forward twice more like a zombie, pouting, and confidently declared.
Under the Thousand-Year Cold Iron, hearing this, Gu Changsheng glanced at her son who was bound tightly like a zongzi. Even though the cold iron shackles were icy, coloring her face cold, she snorted coldly and rejected her son’s suggestion without hesitation, "No need!"
"Huh?" The little dumpling blinked in confusion, unable to stop an eye blink, "Mother, my Peacock, Lion, and Tiger is very bad, it’s no problem to poison him into a toad!"
"There is a problem! Because I’m going to poison him to death myself!"
But as soon as the little dumpling finished speaking, Gu Changsheng’s voice ca through again.
Hearing this from his mother, the little dumpling was stunned, his eyes carrying a glint of reluctance; after a mont’s hesitation, he still spoke, "Mother, isn’t poisoning him to death a bit too much? Poisoning him into a toad should be enough..."
"Hmph!" Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng snorted coldly, her nose flaring with agitation.
With a flick of her arm, the Thousand-Year Cold Iron Shackles imdiately emitted a crisp clanging sound.
Turning her head, she looked at the dissipating cold aura on her evildoer, a hint of warmth flashed in Gu Changsheng’s eyes...
In this world, having such a person...
With all wealth and power, just to accompany...
In this world, having such a person...
Nine-Layer Purgatory, a path filled with thorns, accompanied all the way...
It’s enough!
What reason does she have to give up her life?
Live!
Be it obsession or stubbornness, Gu Changsheng is just the kind of person who won’t shed a tear until she sees the coffin, and won’t give up until she hits the wall!
As long as there’s even a sliver of hope, even if it’s a wall, she will crash into it without hesitation, destined to have her head cracked and bleeding!
Her delicate fingers twitched slightly, and Gu Changsheng’s hand slowly reached toward Zhou Mu’s face, eyes tightly closed...
This face, so near, yet so far...
Just like gazing up at a towering mountain, as divine as ever...
This is the man who accompanied her through life and death, never abandoning her!
"Splash!"
"Splash!"
"..."
With Gu Changsheng’s movent, the Thousand-Year Cold Iron Shackles clattered loudly.
The cold iron was sharp, the material hard and icy cold!
The piercing cold imdiately left a faint red mark on Zhou Mu’s delicate face...
Seeing this, a cold light flashed in Gu Changsheng’s phoenix eyes!
Her hand stopped moving, not daring to pull the shackles anymore...
"Huff huff huff..."
The sound of heavy breathing ca from beneath the wrapped cold iron shackles...
Gu Changsheng’s chest heaved erratically, rubbing repeatedly against the entwined iron chains, the chill of the millennium cold iron seeped into her bones...
What does bone-chilling cold an?
Gu Changsheng was truly experiencing it firsthand!
To wake up from a near-death experience, tied up like a dumpling, and with unbreakable Thousand-Year Cold Iron, that’s truly bone-chilling!
If she didn’t have the Internal Force Body Protection, she would probably be frozen like a popsicle by now!
Yue Xilou! Yue Xilou!
You are really sothing!
"Mother? Mother, what’s wrong? Mother?"
The little at bun saw his mother stop moving, his expression imdiately beca tense, like a little zombie, bouncing up and down in front of his mother’s bed, anxiously calling...
Mother’s face looks so very bad...
Mother, she wouldn’t go crazy again, would she?
The little at bun’s chubby face was full of worry, wanting to speak, but let out a burp first, and when he wanted to speak again, his mother’s voice was faster than his own, ringing out...
The voice was so loud it almost made the little zombie at dumpling fall to the ground...
"Yue Xilou!"
Three words, full of inner strength, majestically ca out of Gu Changsheng’s mouth, each word echoing...
The voice rippled like Lianyi, spreading wave after wave from around Gu Changsheng, covering the entire City Lord’s Mansion...
Within the City Lord’s Mansion, amidst a blooming flower jungle, the gracefully training Yue Xilou, upon hearing this voice, his folding fan in hand paused involuntarily...
His eyebrows furrowed deeply...
He glanced around...
Yue Xilou couldn’t help but smile wryly, shaking his head, "Again! This illusory hearing! How could she call Yue Xilou, she would call ..."
"Flower Peacock!"
Before Yue Xilou could finish his whispered murmur, three more words ca from afar, clear as day, into Yue Xilou’s ears...
"Bang!"
The next mont, Yue Xilou’s folding fan fell to the ground...
"This really is...illusory hearing that can even grasp the heart, and intercept the words of this Tower Master..." He shook his head, on Yue Xilou’s face, more beautiful than any evildoer, was full of disbelief.
His beautiful large eyes, wide and round, long eyelashes trembling uncontrollably, his chest heaving rapidly, heart seemingly about to leap out...
Illusory hearing!
This...
Is it truly the illusory hearing that has been repeating of late?
Or is it that the woman, truly... truly awakened?
Is it possible?
Though he had prepared for the worst, and no worse result could occur, yet the faint hope in his heart was so obvious...
The soul eternally dood, henceforth strangers!
Could she truly defy the heavens to return after Demon Fall?
Yue Xilou found it hard to believe!
Simultaneously, everyone who heard these consecutive voices in the City Lord’s Mansion had the sa thunderstruck expression, disbelief...
The eerie atmosphere instantly perated the entire City Lord’s Mansion...
