"I can only take care of one thing." Gu Sheng said calmly, "At least I can make some people see hope."
The night was hazy and the stars were sparse. In the vast underground world, a dark and mysterious land unfolds before your eyes.
Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei drift slowly along the twists and turns of the underground river. The river water sparkles under the reflection of the fluorescent worms, like a flowing Milky Way.
"Gu Sheng, can't you let me go?" Ji Yewei tried to persuade Gu Sheng again, with a hint of pleading and dissatisfaction in her tone, "I have promised you that I will never cause you trouble when I go back."
Gu Sheng glanced at her, with a bit of teasing in his eyes, "Ji Yewei, your guarantee means nothing to me. You are the famous Ji Family Second Young Lady, with high cultivation and deep scheming. If I let you go, wouldn't I be asking for trouble?"
"You bastard!" Ji Yewei glared at Gu Sheng and muttered, "When I regain my freedom, I will make you look good!"
"Hmph, then I'll be waiting." Gu Sheng chuckled, turned his head indifferently, and continued to enjoy the scenery along the way.
As the underground river goes deeper, the surrounding scenery gradually becomes more magical. Colorful fluorescent worms began to appear on both sides of the originally dark river, flying in the sky like stars twinkling in the night sky. These little lives exude a soft light that complements the ripples of the underground river, making the entire underground world look like a dreamlike wonderland.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Ji Yewei couldn't help but exclaimed, his eyes were deeply attracted by these beautiful fluorescent bugs, and for a moment he forgot about his dispute with Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng didn't speak, just looked at her quietly, a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes. In this beautiful underground world, the grudges between the two of them seemed to become insignificant.
The light of the fluorescent bugs shines on Ji Yewei's face, adding a mysterious and charming color to her. Gu Sheng couldn't help but feel an inexplicable feeling in his heart, and he found that he began to appreciate this woman who had once caused him a lot of headaches.
As the two continued to move forward, the river became wider and wider, and the surrounding scenery became more magnificent and colorful. They saw towering stalactites, strange-shaped rocks, and many strange creatures they had never seen before. In this fantasy world, the two of them gradually relaxed.
"Gu Sheng, what do you think that is?" Ji Yewei suddenly pointed to a strange landscape ahead and asked. I saw a bright sea of fluorescent flowers there, shining in the darkness. Each flower exuded a soft light, like an elf in a fairyland.
These flowers are colorful and have different shapes. Some are like dancing butterflies, while others are like phoenixes spreading their wings. Among the fluorescent flowers, there are several cute little animals playing around. They are jumping, chasing or hiding, adding a bit of vitality to this flower sea.
Gu Sheng followed her hand, with a flash of surprise in his eyes, "That is a sea of fluorescent flowers, one of the wonders of the underground world." He explained, "These flowers only bloom at night, and they are very rare. We are really lucky to see such a large sea of fluorescent flowers."
Ji Yewei looked at the beautiful scenery in amazement, "It's so beautiful! I have never seen such beautiful flowers!" As she spoke, she couldn't help but stretched out her hands to touch those beautiful flowers.
However, just when she was about to touch the flower, a beautiful butterfly flew past her fingertips, and the scales on its wings shone with colorful light under the fluorescent light. Ji Yewei was deeply attracted by this butterfly, and she started chasing the butterfly and playing.
Gu Sheng Looking at her cheerful figure and the smile on her face, an inexplicable feeling surged in her heart.
He found that in this underground world full of fantasy and beauty, the grudges he had with Ji Yewei seemed to become insignificant. He began to appreciate her, like her, even... fall in love with her?
No! How is this possible!
Gu Sheng shook his head violently, trying to get these ridiculous thoughts out of his mind. However, when he looked up at Ji Yewei again, he found that she had stopped chasing butterflies and was standing quietly in the sea of fluorescent flowers, staring at him.
As their eyes met, the two of them fell into silence. There is an indescribable and unclear atmosphere in the air...
"Hey! What are you looking at!" Ji Yewei muttered with a slightly heated cheek, "Are there any flowers on my face?" After saying that, she turned around and looked away pretending to be angry. However, she glanced at you secretly from the corner of her eye, as if expecting your answer.
Gu Sheng chuckled and walked to her side, "There are no flowers on your face, but it is more beautiful than this sea of fluorescent flowers." He said softly. Ji Yewei was stunned by this sudden compliment. She turned to look at you, her eyes shining with surprise and joy, "You... are you telling the truth?" she asked stammering.
"Of course it's true." Gu Sheng said with a smile, "I have never seen a more beautiful woman than you." At this moment, he couldn't help but turn into an expert in love, and some disgusting love words came out of his mouth, which seemed very natural.
At this moment, in the bright sea of fluorescent flowers, the two people's eyes met...
Wonderland·Continuation
The night became increasingly hazy, and the originally peaceful underground world was suddenly broken by a strange movement.
In the darkness, a monster named "Shadow Split Beast" suddenly sprang out. It was shaped like a leopard, but had a pair of scarlet eyes and sharp fangs, and exuded a cold aura. The most peculiar thing is that its figure disappears and appears in the light of the fluorescent bugs, as if it can tear the shadow apart.
"Run!" Gu Sheng grabbed Ji Yewei's wrist, and the two fled the scene quickly. Shadow Split Beast let out a deep roar and chased after it.
"Chacha~"
"What the hell is this?" Ji Yewei asked as he ran.
"This is Shadow Split Beast. It is extremely fast and can shuttle in shadows. It is very difficult to deal with!" Gu Sheng explained that he had seen this kind of monster in "Chronicles of Xiwu".
The two shuttled through the twists and turns of the cave, avoiding the pursuit of Shadow Split Beast. The light of the glowworms reflected their nervous and determined faces.
"We can't keep running away, we have to find a way to deal with it!" Ji Yewei said.
Gu Sheng nodded in agreement, "Do you have any good strategies?"
A cunning light flashed in Ji Yewei's eyes, "We can use the fluorescent bugs here to confuse it!"
The two quickly discussed a plan and began to induce Shadow Split Beast into a preset trap.
. In a narrow passage, Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei suddenly separated and ran in two different directions.
"Chatter~"
Shadow Split Beast roared and chose to pursue Ji Yewei.
Gu Sheng took the opportunity to go around to the back of Shadow Split Beast, holding a dagger shining with cold light in his hand. Just when Shadow Split Beast was about to knock Ji Yewei down, Gu Sheng suddenly jumped out and stabbed Jade Maiden Sword into Shadow Split Beast's back.
"Ouch~"
Shadow Split Beast let out a shrill scream, turned around and pounced on Gu Sheng. The two started a thrilling fight. Gu Sheng is agile and every attack is extremely precise, but Shadow Split Beast is no ordinary creature either. It can shuttle freely in the shadows, making it unpredictable.
"Gu Sheng, be careful!" Ji Yewei exclaimed.
At the critical moment, Gu Sheng rolled and escaped the fatal blow of Shadow Split Beast. He took the opportunity to pull out the long sword from his waist and fought side by side with Ji Yewei. The two started a thrilling battle with Shadow Split Beast in the beautiful underground world. Their figures flickered in and out under the light of the fluorescent bugs, and the fight scene with Shadow Split Beast was thrilling.
"Pfft!" With a muffled sound, Gu Sheng's long sword finally pierced Shadow Split Beast's heart. The monster fell to the ground with a crash, and the two of them collapsed on the ground from exhaustion.
"Are you okay?" Gu Sheng asked with concern.
Ji Yewei shook her head, "I'm fine, thank you." Her eyes shone with gratitude and respect. Never before had a stranger been so kind to her, making her feel unprecedented warmth at this critical moment.
Gu Sheng smiled slightly, "We are companions and should support each other." After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pulled Ji Yewei up. The two understood each other, as if all their grudges had disappeared at this moment.
The two were exhausted both physically and mentally, so they became entangled in grass and vines and drifted along the underground river.
It was already dawn when they emerged from the underground cave. The sun shone on the two of them, as if they were covered with a golden halo. They rested for a while by the lake, enjoying this rare quiet time.
At this moment, a Jade Bird suddenly flew through the sky, leaving a wisp of fragrance.
The two of them felt their bodies become soft for a while, then their eyes blurred, and they passed out instantly. When they woke up, they found themselves tied under a big tree by Wuhua Da.
The sunlight filtered through the treetops and shone dappledly on the two of them.
And standing in front of them was none other than Ji Yewei's cousin—Ji Yefu.
At this time, Ji Yefu was watching them with interest.
"You finally woke up." Ji Yefu said with a smile, a hint of cunning and ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, "I am the guardian here, and you broke into my territory without authorization and killed my pet Shadow Split Beast. Ji Yewei, you are showing your face. I will see how you die this time!"
Ji Yewei stared at this once familiar face in disbelief, "Ji Yefu? Why are you here?"
"Why am I here?" Ji Yefu snorted, "This is my territory, of course I will be here. But you, Ji Yewei, you are so brave, you dare to break into my territory!"
"Your territory? This is obviously a public area!" Ji Yewei retorted.
"Hmph, what I say is mine is mine." Ji Yefu said arrogantly, "Moreover, you not only broke into my territory, but also killed my beloved Shadow Split Beast. Do you know how much effort I put into cultivating it? Today, I want you to pay the price for it!"
Ji Yefu's words made Ji Yewei feel a chill. She knew that this conflict with Ji Yefu would not be easily resolved. Since childhood, Ji Yefu has always been jealous of her beauty and talent, and always tried every means to oppose her. Now, having fallen into the hands of Ji Yefu, she knew that the days ahead would not be easy.
"Ji Yefu, what do you want?" Gu Sheng asked calmly, trying to break the tense atmosphere.
"How is it? Haha!" Ji Yefu laughed, "Ji Yewei, do you think I will let you go easily? And you," she turned to Gu Sheng, "Your Primordial Saint Body is a treasure! It is said that the elixir of immortality can be made from the flesh and blood of Primordial Saint Body!"
Gu Sheng frowned when he heard this, but did not show too much panic. He knew that his Primordial Saint Body was indeed extraordinary, but it was not impossible to crack it. He looked at Ji Yefu calmly, as if assessing her strength and determination.
"Ji Yefu, do you think you won?" Ji Yewei suddenly sneered, "Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you caught us?"
"Humph, isn't it?" Ji Yefu asked, "You are my prisoners now, I can do whatever I want!"
"Then you are totally wrong!" Ji Yewei's eyes suddenly became firm, "Do you think you understand Primordial Saint Body? Do you think you can easily use it to make medicine? It's really ridiculous!"
Ji Yefu was irritated by Ji Yewei's words, "Ji Yewei, don't go too far! You are in my hands now!"
"So what?" Ji Yewei responded without fear, "Do you think I will be afraid of you? Ever since you were a child, how have you ever defeated me?"
These words completely angered Ji Yefu. She waved her hand suddenly and a wave of energy hit Ji Yewei. However, at the moment when the energy wave was about to hit Ji Yewei, Gu Sheng suddenly broke free, pulled Ji Yewei behind him, and punched Ji Yewei at the same time, colliding with the energy wave.
"Bang!" There was a loud noise, and the energy wave was scattered by Gu Sheng's punch. He stood up slowly and looked at Ji Yefu coldly, "You pissed me off."
Ji Yefu looked at Gu Sheng in shock. She didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary boy could have such strength. Her Sea Bottom Realm first level cultivation seemed to be a joke in front of Gu Sheng.
"You... how could you..." Ji Yefu said with a trembling voice.
"Nothing is impossible." Gu Sheng responded indifferently, "Now, it's time for us to fight back."
After speaking, he reached out and waved, and the rope binding him and Ji Yewei broke instantly. It turns out that from the moment he was tied up, Grass Vine Demonic Soul was quietly cutting the rope.
Since it is Immortal Binding Rope, it took a long time for Grass Vine Demonic Soul to be completely cut off.
The sun shines on the lake, making the waves sparkling. Gu Sheng and Ji Yewei stood side by side, facing the horrified Ji Yefu.
"Ji Yefu, your crimes are too numerous to mention." Ji Yewei said coldly, her eyes full of anger and disappointment, "Since you were a child, you have been jealous of me and framed me. Today is the end of you!"
Ji Yefu turned pale, and she begged with a trembling voice, "Ye Wei, I know I was wrong, please spare my life!"
Gu Sheng's eyes were cold. He did not take action directly, but handed over the decision-making power to Ji Yewei. He knew that this was a grudge between their families and it should be settled by Ji Yewei.
"Your crimes cannot be offset by just knowing that you are wrong." Ji Yewei said, and began to list all the evil deeds of Ji Yefu and her family.
As Ji Yewei spoke, Ji Yefu's face became increasingly pale, and she knew she had nowhere to escape. Finally, Ji Yewei finished speaking. She looked at Ji Yefu who was lying on the ground and took a deep breath.
