Chapter 630: Chapter 477 You Owe a Life
Gu Changsheng heard this, and he couldn’t help but narrow his eyes slightly. His phoenix eyes squinted, a fleeting light flashed through them as he spoke in a deep voice, “Fine! Go ahead and tell how much debt I owe you! If you can articulate it clearly, I will repay the debt and let you leave. If not!”
Gu Changsheng paused montarily, then continued in a deep voice, “If not, do not bla for being rciless. Neither you nor your Itinerant World underlings will be able to leave!”
Did they really think Liuzhou City was a place where they could co and go as they pleased?
To these Itinerant World’s People, she had already shown enough respect for righteousness!
If they did not leave, Gu Changsheng was really about to get rough!
“Lady Changsheng, do not be angry. Let this humble Scholar check!” Liu Fengyun heard this and, still unflustered, slowly flipped through the account book in his hands.
All eyes were fixed on the account book he held.
“Gu Changsheng, you really might owe soone a debt, right? Look at this Scholar’s deanor; he seems to be quite confident!” Borjigin Nian couldn’t help but lean closer to Gu Changsheng and whispered.
Gu Changsheng heard this and couldn’t help but frown.
Beside him, Yue Xilou was lightly swaying a folding fan, his face thoughtful.
The scene was montarily silent, only leaving the slow flipping of the pages by the Scholar.
“Ah! Found it!”
Just as Gu Changsheng’s patience was almost exhausted and his expression grew increasingly somber, Liu Fengyun suddenly exclaid in surprise.
“Lady Changsheng, you owe this humble Scholar a life!” Liu Fengyun, holding the account book, looked at Gu Changsheng and said with a smile.
Gu Changsheng heard this and imdiately frowned, her entourage also wore puzzled expressions.
“You owe a life? What do you an?” Gu Changsheng asked, her brows knit in confusion.
“Let this humble Scholar take a look, right here!” Liu Fengyun replied, pointing to the account book and slowly speaking, “Dare I ask Lady Changsheng, is this the Gu Family dical Hall on Tongji Street in Liuzhou City?”
“It once was! It still is!” Gu Changsheng replied in a heavy voice.
“Then that’s settled!” Liu Fengyun said, imdiately relieved as he patted the account book in his hand and looked up smiling at Gu Changsheng, “I wonder if Lady Changsheng still rembers the Wind Cloud Inn?”
“Itinerant World’s People discuss Itinerant World matters, not to ntion Itinerant World being far-off, words within Wind Cloud convergence, yet who knows Wind Cloud is right in front! At the end of spring, Lady Changsheng once sought refuge in my inn, trading a life for my temporary protection. Do you still rember this debt?”
Gu Changsheng heard this and imdiately sat up straight!
“Wind Cloud Inn? Are you the new manor master of Itinerant World Wind Cloud Mountain Villa?” Yue Xilou’s forehead furrowed even deeper as he stepped forward and asked sternly.
“This humble Scholar is unworthy, indeed newly in charge of Wind Cloud Mountain Villa! Spring Breeze does not concern Yue Xilou, the hidden principal owner of the Huitong Money Manor, the tower master of the Cool Breeze Bright Moon Tower, the Pavilion master of Western Tower Assassin’s Hall; Yue Xilou, establishing an Assassins’ Pavilion in the Itinerant World isn’t wrong by itself, yet you take contracts to kill non-Itinerant World citizens, breaking the underworld rules, indeed you are on my Wind Cloud most wanted list!” Liu Fengyun said, while he stowed away the account book and slowly addressed Yue Xilou.
“Uh…” Gu Changsheng, upon hearing this, wore an expression full of inexplicable changes.
Wind Cloud Inn! She indeed owed Wind Cloud Inn a life—it was true!
That day, she had rescued a wounded evildoer, taking refuge in the Wind Cloud Inn, through their protection, she had managed to evade the pursuers!
“A person commanded by the Itinerant World does things based on whim! If Wind Cloud Mountain Villa wants to co after , co right ahead!” Yue Xilou looked at Liu Fengyun and said sternly.
“That too! Though you say so, considering your special identity, even for the sake of Prince Mu, this humble Scholar couldn’t openly place you high on the reward list!” Liu Fengyun said, laughing gently, his deanor light and breezy.
Yue Xilou’s eyes swept a look of disdain, “I don’t want anything to do with that boy’s favor!”
Liu Fengyun heard this, his shoulders slightly shrugged, remaining noncommittal.
“Stop! Hold on!” Gu Changsheng, seeing this, couldn’t help but interrupt and look at the two, puzzled, “That whatever, can you first tell , what exactly is Wind Cloud Mountain Villa?”
It sounded very impressive!
“Wind Cloud Mountain Villa governs the righteous paths of the Itinerant World! Wind Cloud grasps everything, knowing everything there is to know!” Yue Xilou, hearing this, looked at Liu Fengyun and spoke sternly, “Only I did not expect, the mysterious manor master of the well-known Wind Cloud Mountain Villa in the Itinerant World turns out to be such a frail Scholar!”
Gu Changsheng heard this, and couldn’t help but be taken aback!
Damn, governing the Itinerant World’s righteous paths, huh! Sounds rather dashing!
Only his Flower Peacock was both righteous and evil; no wonder the two didn’t get along!
It seed, this debt, she couldn’t escape!
“In that case, then, humble Scholar, you tell who to save, bring the person to my dical Hall, and have your people exit Liuzhou Region!” Gu Changsheng rubbed her temples and spoke hesitantly.
“But…” Liu Fengyun heard this and imdiately frowned as he spoke.
Seeing this, Gu Changsheng sternly interrupted, “While you are within Liuzhou Region, I guarantee your safe departure!”
Liu Fengyun slightly pondered upon hearing this and nodded, “Since Lady Changsheng has made such a promise, this humble one naturally trusts you!”
Having said that, Liu Fengyun waved toward Song Lin.
“?” Upon seeing this, Song Lin pointed at himself with a baffled look, then walked over after catching his wife’s glance with a hesitant step.
Liu Fengyun pulled out a token from his bosom and handed it to Song Lin, “Go outside and grab anyone disguised as a person from the Itinerant World, give this to them, and tell them to leave the Liuzhou Region and wait for outside the area!”
“The Fengyun Order!” Yue Xilou looked at the dark token and spoke in a grave voice.
At that mont, Gu Changsheng couldn’t care less about that; he waved to Song Lin, signaling him to go and relay the ssage!
Soon afterward, Gu Changsheng felt the presence of the Itinerant World’s People, which had been surrounding his residence, dissipating like water at low tide!
The speed was indescribably fast!
Damn, that token was really damn effective!
“Ah! That’s not right!” But in the blink of an eye, Gu Changsheng felt sothing was off and imdiately turned his head to look at Liu Fengyun, his brow slightly furrowed as he raised his voice, “Damn it, you’ve sent all your people away, but what about the patient?”
Wasn’t he here to seek her aid for saving a life? There were no patients, so whom was she supposed to save?
Was he playing with her?
“Lady Changsheng, the patient is as far as the horizon and as close as before your eyes, indeed it is none other than this humble one!” Upon hearing this, Liu Fengyun raised his hand to point at himself, his voice spirited.
“You?” Gu Changsheng stared in response, sizing him up once more from head to toe before shaking her head and speaking, “Are you teasing ? You’re clearly not sick!”
Damn it, if being dirty counts as a sickness, then Liu Fengyun really was seriously ill!
Unfortunately, that was clearly not the case; his energy flowed smoothly, not at all resembling soone gravely ill!
“Lady Changsheng, the patient is truly this humble one, just not ill in the usual sense! If you don’t believe , Lady Changsheng, co and see!” Upon saying this, Liu Fengyun imdiately stepped forward a few steps, ca up to Gu Changsheng, and slowly rolled up his filthy sleeve.
Seeing him approaching, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but recoil backward, “Damn it, you reek! Those who know think you are disguised; those who don’t might think you belong to the Beggars’ Sect!”
“Lady Changsheng is perceptive; this garnt was indeed stripped from a Scholar of the Beggars’ Sect! Finding a Scholar in the Beggars’ Sect is not easy, I also went through quite a bit of trouble!” Liu Fengyun replied with a smile upon hearing this.
Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but curl her lip!
Damn, this disguise, it’s truly damn professional! Impressive!
“Lady Changsheng, please look!” Liu Fengyun put away his easygoing deanor and extended his arm forward again.
Seeing this, Gu Changsheng also beca serious and looked over!
On Liu Fengyun’s forearm, a large bruise was glaringly obvious, at its center was a distinct, bloody hole!
Upon seeing this wound, Gu Changsheng’s pupils involuntarily contracted!
“Gu!” Suddenly, Yue Xilou, looking at Liu Fengyun, exclaid in shock, disbelief written all over his face.
“Yes, it is indeed a trace of a Gu entering the body!” Borjigin Nian, who had previously been cursed with a gu, also frowned and spoke.
As the two of them spoke, Gu Changsheng’s frown grew even tighter.
The Gu from the Southern Border has always been dreaded by the Four Kingdoms! Fortunately, the people of the Southern Border traditionally keep to themselves, rarely venturing out and seldom bringing harm to others!
But now, damn it, the Gu seed omnipresent around her!
“In the Central Plains, seldom do people from the Southern Border appear; Liu Fengyun, how did you end up being cursed with a gu?” Gu Changsheng looked at Liu Fengyun and asked in a serious tone.
Upon hearing this, Liu Fengyun raised his hand to cover his exposed arm, his brow also unconsciously furrowing, “Lady Changsheng speaks truly, people from the Southern Border rarely venture to the Central Plains, but lately, it has not been so!”
As he spoke, Liu Fengyun paced back and forth, “Several months ago, when the Female Star of the Occupation Room clashed with Hook Chen, three Princes from the Three Kingdoms gathered in Liuzhou, and the Itinerant World began to grow increasingly restless! News from various places reported that foreign races were infiltrating the Central Plains!”
“The Imperial Court is one world, and the Itinerant World is another! With foreign races entering our borders, I feared they would bring chaos to the Central Plains, hence I issued several Fengyun Orders to try to ascertain their intentions. But before the matter could be investigated fully, I fell victim to soone’s sche and was afflicted with this Soul-capturing Gu!”
The more Gu Changsheng listened, the tighter her brows furrowed. Just then, Liu Fengyun suddenly turned back to look directly at her, his voice solemn, “Lady Changsheng, the one who cursed with the Gu said that under the heavens, only the Phoenix Clan from the Southern Border can cure this Soul-capturing Gu. They instructed to seek help in the Liuzhou Region!”
Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but look up, her expression indescribably intense!
The people behind her also imdiately tensed up!
As he spoke, Liu Fengyun slowly raised his hand, pointing toward Gu Changsheng’s brow as his brows furrowed slightly, his voice solemn, “My n searched all over Liuzhou City to no avail, and then I thought perhaps I could seek assistance from Lady Changsheng you! However, it was not until the mont I saw you, Lady Changsheng, that I finally understood!”
“Lady Changsheng, why the foreign people from the Southern Border infiltrated the Central Plains in large numbers and why I was afflicted with the Soul-capturing Gu—all of this lies within your brow, Lady Changsheng!”
