Chapter 808: Chapter 637: The Little Witch Lord of Bashu Arrives
Gu Changsheng stared almost blankly at the little girl holding onto her father’s leg, crying her heart out. Her mouth twitched once, and then again…
Can soone explain to her what exactly is going on here?
If it weren’t for the fact that the little girl’s bright yellow small witch robe was so exceptionally distinctive, or if it weren’t for the camaraderie they had shared during their journey together, which made her recognize this face, she might have suspected that her father had secretly fathered a sister for her!
But clearly, that wasn’t the case…
“Clan Uncle! Clan Uncle! Yueyue finally found you! Yueyue finally found you! Woo…” Wuchang Yue was crying a river, and her loud wailing drew the attention of the hundreds of thousands of troops around them!
Who is this little girl? Judging by her yellow robe, she doesn’t seem insignificant!
Why is she clinging onto the legs of our new lord’s father, refusing to let go?
“Hey! Child, don’t cry! You’ve suffered enough…” Gu Taitian sighed helplessly at Wuchang Yue, who was crying at his feet, and gently patted her head to comfort her.
Gu Changsheng watched her father, full of affection, his expression turning stern as a significant realization dawned on her. Apparently, her father and Wuchang Yue were of the sa clan! And they seed to share a rather close relationship!
“So, the reason you insisted on tagging along with to the Southern Border back then was really to find my father!” Gu Changsheng said, looking perplexed at Wuchang Yue.
Even if she’s not particularly smart, she’s not a fool either, right?
So, the little Witch Lord from Bashu had co with her to the Southern Border specifically to seek out her father! And that’s probably why she treated her so well back then, offering her access through her lands and supplying military resources. Perhaps the little Witch Lord had known all along that she was actually her father’s daughter?
Damn it!
Thinking of this, Gu Changsheng’s face soured imdiately!
In a flash, she stepped forward, yanking the little Witch Lord off the ground with a gritted-teeth determination, “Aren’t you supposed to have so dignity as a leader? You’re the Witch Lord of Bashu, how can you lower yourself like this, clinging onto my father?”
“Waaa… Clan Uncle!” Wuchang Yue, suddenly pulled, dangled her feet in the air and struggled frantically, to no avail.
“Stop fussing over my father for a mont. Tell , as the Witch Lord of Bashu, why aren’t you overseeing the defense against Southern Chen, and why did you co back here?” Gu Changsheng narrowed her phoenix eyes dangerously, watching the little girl intently, “Where is your sense of duty as a Witch Lord? Your responsibility?”
“I… I… I wasn’t supposed to be this damned Witch Lord in the first place!” Wuchang Yue held back her tears, wiping her tear-streaked face and finally speaking, “My mother and I are just distant relatives of the Wuchang lineage. Clan Uncle insisted on leaving Bashu, leaving it to my mother, which eventually drove her to an early grave with white hair from worry! Woo-woo… Clan Uncle, please return to Bashu, chaos has erupted there, and people from the Central Plains have co over… Yueyue can’t handle it! Yueyue doesn’t want to end up like her mother, prematurely aged with worry, she doesn’t want to die young! Yueyue is returning the Witch Lord’s position to you!”
Gu Changsheng watched Wuchang Yue trying to back out of her duties and beca perplexed!
Even the way she looked at her father was filled with shock!
This is… what exactly is going on?
“D… Dad?” Gu Changsheng hesitated, looking at her father with a face full of doubt and uncertainty.
Could soone please explain to her why she heard deep resentnt from Wuchang Yue’s words? Why does it sound like her father shirked his duties first and left Bashu hanging?
This is…
What kind of bizarre and twisted story is this?
“Ah… It is I who has wronged your mother, allowing you to bear such a burden at a young age…” Gu Taitian sighed and extended his hand to rescue Wuchang Yue from his daughter’s clutches, comforting her softly in his arms.
Gu Changsheng blankly stared at her now-empty hands and the little girl nestled in her father’s arms, finally understanding a rough outline from their conversation…
Her father, he was quite an amazing man!
Over twenty years ago, during the expected ti of the millennium appearance of the King of Witch Gu, her father prevented a disaster by saving the Bashu and Southern Border Witch and Gu Tribes with his extraordinary abilities. It was said that he sought divine power from the Witch and Gu tribes to continue their legacy…
Gu Changsheng thought for a mont, perhaps back then her father held the divine soul of Manman captive to accomplish this!
Then, as the savior of the Witch and Gu Tribes, her father resolutely went to the Southern Border to ensure the continuation of the Blood of Serving God, leaving Bashu and the position of Witch Lord, which he should have claid as a legitimate mber of the Wuchang lineage, was placed upon the shoulders of Wuchang Yue’s mother…
This might have seed insignificant, but for Wuchang Yue’s mother, a collateral mber of the Wuchang lineage, it was a great responsibility that she took so seriously that she worked herself to death prematurely, graying before her ti and ultimately sacrificed herself on the Witch Lord’s throne!
With the Wuchang’s legitimate line disappearing in the Southern Border, the relationship between the Witch and Gu Tribes faded over ti. After the passing of Wuchang Yue’s mother, Yueyue took up the position of Bashu Witch Lord as a child, trembling with fear, hoping for the day the Wuchang’s legitimate line would return to Bashu so they could relinquish their burdens and find peace in life…
That is why, when Gu Changsheng passed through Bashu, Wuchang Yue beca excited, as if she saw a glimr of hope in her life, a future that was not just the cold Bashu Witch Lord’s throne! Thus, she followed without hesitation!
Finding the master lord of the Wuchang legitimate line was the only way she could relieve herself of the responsibilities of Bashu Witch Lord!
Regardless of life or death, even if it was a re skeleton, she would hand the Witch Lord’s position back to soone from the Wuchang’s legitimate lineage!
And that person, wouldn’t you know it, is none other than her, Gu Changsheng…
Listening to stories is all well and good, but when she saw dozens of witches in white robes walking gracefully with trays in their hands, Gu Changsheng was clearly not so pleased…
She took a step back in trembling, then another step back, and internally, Gu Changsheng coughed up three pints of blood!
“Dad, what’s that supposed to an?” Gu Changsheng looked at her old man, tears in her eyes, thinking he shouldn’t be setting his daughter up like this!
“Bashu Witch Master, for generations, the daughters of the Wuchang lineage have held the position! My daughter…” Gu Taitian looked at his daughter, emphasizing the word ‘daughter’ very clearly, and then helplessly sighed, “It’s just unlucky that your old man was born into the Wuchang family…”
Hearing this, Gu Changsheng was instantly horrified.
“Changsheng, you can’t just watch little Yueyue grow old with gray hair at such a young age, right…” Gu Taitian said with a slight tone of sympathy.
“No… no problem, I can make her so blackening hair ointnt…” Early graying or whatever, it doesn’t even count in front of her! Gu Changsheng replied woodenly, though in her heart she was actually rejecting it…
“Wah… no! Clan Uncle, I don’t want to grow white hair, I don’t want to work myself to death…” Wuchang Yue said, instantly bursting into tears…
Gu Changsheng was equally speechless, choking on her words!
Little Witch Lord, you can’t just throw your friends under the bus like this, if you’re not worked to death, then it’s her who’s going to be worked to death!
Gu Changsheng felt this must be a bad year for her; everything she’s encountered lately exceeds expectations!
Dealing with one fierce Southern Border Miao Ethnic Group is enough to give a headache, and this Little Witch Lord just had to add to the chaos with the entire Bashu!
Life, it’s really unlivable now!
Can’t afford to live it!
The tray in front of her, with that dazzling yellow robe, damn, she couldn’t see it any clearer!
Refuse!
This is definitely a matter to refuse!
Damn, she hasn’t even settled securely onto the Southern Border throne, what kind of nonsense is Bashu coming to stir up? Isn’t this just screwing people over?
She’s not Gonggong, with three heads and six arms, skilled beyond belief!
Can’t handle it! Completely unmanageable!
“Little Yueyue, be good, just be a nice Bashu Witch Master, and I’ll have Xiao Cui make you lots of delicious food later!” Forget about dignity and all that, Gu Changsheng unhesitatingly tried to coax the little girl.
“No!” Wuchang Yue haughtily turned her head to the side, snorting, “It’s originally yours! I’m just a stand-in! Do you understand stand-in? You have to take it back, take it back!”
This shout echoed through the entire Red Rock City, shaking everyone three tis.
Gu Changsheng tried all the sweet talk she could, but those dozen or so white-robed witches still stood undeterred in front of her, holding the trays.
Gu Changsheng realized this wasn’t going anywhere, it was clear Wuchang Yue had eaten so ironwilled determination, intent on dragging this out with her till the end. Yet, her old dad is a man, and can’t fit into this Witch Master yellow robe…
Therefore, Gu Changsheng was conflicted!
She looked mournfully at her little atball son happily munching away, wondering how on earth did she give birth to such a carefree child whose only talent is eating? If he were a daughter, wouldn’t it be great, she could just toss this duty around like a hot potato, right?
“Little Yueyue, do you see that little atball gnawing on chicken feet? That’s my son, how about you just make do and take him away? He’s got the divine power that can extend Gu Breath, even the King of Witch Gu’s Divine Soul doesn’t disdain him…” Damn this matriarchal society, just take my little atball so he won’t bring trouble to ! An!
This is truly the essence of throwing your friends under the bus to save yourself!
The little atball being pointed out imdiately lifted his head from the chicken feet, while Wuchang Yue also looked in the direction Gu Changsheng was pointing…
“Hmph! Boy! No!”
“Wow! Pretty sister! I want!”
Wuchang Yue snorted in extre disdain and left with that statent.
When Gu Changsheng heard it, her heart instantly sank halfway…
Little atball, extrely excited, finally got a clear look at Wuchang Yue’s little face, and his round big eyes sparkled but instantly lost their luster after hearing Wuchang Yue’s disdainful words…
