On their way back to the guild, Gu Qingyue seemed to have transformed into a curious baby, chattering away and asking questions.
When she came to the outside world for the first time, she really didn't understand anything.
"Are you people who originally lived outside?"
"Where should I hide when the black disaster comes at night?"
"The book says... the weather will change, it will be cloudy or sunny, and it will rain. What does rain look like?"
Chen Nian couldn't help but laugh. Unexpectedly, she didn't even know it was raining. He patiently answered her questions along the way.
But this journey is still quite far. If we walk slowly like this when traveling, we won't be able to make it back even after dark.
"Do you want to experience the feeling of flying?" Chen Nian asked with a smile.
"How to fly? Do we fly like the birds in the sky? But we don't have wings... ugh!"
Before Gu Qingyue finished speaking, she was picked up by Chen Nian.
Seeing Chen Nian rising into the air, Gu Qingyue was almost so surprised that she couldn't help but smile from ear to ear, "You... you can actually fly!"
"Hold tight."
Flying in the sky, this was a scene that Gu Qingyue could not even dream of!
This feeling is simply amazing. The wind keeps whistling in my ears, and I can stand side by side with the birds, overlooking everything on the ground, as if I am embracing the world!
"Chen Nian! I like you more and more."
"What are you talking about? The wind is too loud and I can't hear you."
"Nothing!"
But did Chen Nian really not hear clearly?
Not really.
His physique has far exceeded that of normal humans, so it is impossible that he didn't hear clearly, he just pretended not to hear clearly.
Because he knew that there could not be too deep feelings and bonds between the two. After all, she was a sacrifice to the mountain god and she only had the last few days left in her life.
In about an hour, the two arrived near the territory of Mountains and Rivers in Lasting Peace.
"Arrived."
"It's not convenient for me to show my face, so I'll cover my face later. Just get used to it."
Gu Qingyue curled her eyelashes and smiled like a crescent moon, "You don't want to show your face to your companions, but you are willing to show it to me. Do you like me?"
Chen Nian: Yes, yes, yes.
"It's so perfunctory. You've obviously called me ma'am, but you still don't want to admit it!"
When the two landed, they were immediately spotted by members of Mountains and Rivers in Lasting Peace.
What surprised Chen Nian was that during his absence, the guild base had been upgraded to level five. It seemed that everyone was working hard.
The return of Chen Nian immediately caused a sensation among everyone.
"Boss, the boss is back!"
"Bah, it's the boss who brought a woman back again! Come and take a look!"
"Is it weird for the boss to bring a woman back? Hahahaha."
Tang Rou: Don't look at me... I am innocent QUQ.
Ai Lan: Don't look at me either, I haven't joined you yet.
When everyone saw Gu Qingyue's appearance clearly, the second wave of surprise broke out.
Although she put on simple clothes, Gu Qingyue's appearance was so good, and the princess's innate noble and dignified temperament immediately made everyone's eyes shine.
"I guess! My sister is so beautiful... what should I call her?"
"Why do these clothes look like ancient costumes?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, with this face and this temperament, the girls in the guild are going to be severely affected by this wave of intensity!"
"I can only say that he is worthy of being the boss. With the boss here, there will be no shortage of beauties in the guild!"
After all, Gu Qingyue is a princess. She has experienced big scenes and won't be too stage frightened.
She bowed slightly and said softly, "The little girl Gu Qingyue is... his wife."
Everyone:???
A group of people were petrified on the spot, unable to speak even a single word.
Isn't this development a bit too fast?
Is she already a woman?
Everyone looked at Chen Nian in disbelief, as if to say, "Boss, you are really a scumbag! It's okay to kidnap girls into the guild, but this lady has gone too far!"
"Ahem, that's it... I'll explain it to them first."
Chen Nian walked out alone and briefly recounted his experience in the dungeon.
After listening, everyone's hearts were filled with turmoil.
"Boss, what you mean is that the locals of this world live underground, and their technological level is stuck in ancient times. And this girl is the princess of the city?"
"Outrageous... It's too outrageous... No wonder this girl's temperament is different from that of a country girl."
The girls were furious: Who are you calling a country girl? Are you looking for a fight?
"The princess was chosen as a sacrifice to the mountain god. It's so pitiful..."
Tang Rou looked sad. She couldn't imagine how strong a person's heart must be to face his own death bravely.
"Okay, we all understand after this. Boss, you can go ahead and do it. We support you."
"Yes, please spend the last few days with this princess. We won't tell Xiao Qi secretly, but we can hold on to this handle first."
Chen Nian:"..."
Lu Ge said excitedly, "So boss, can we go to that city and visit it? I want to see if it is so magical."
This proposal was immediately approved by the majority of people.
"Yes, that is a real ancient city!"
"I want to go too, I want to go too!"
"Count me in!"
A Huo: "Boss, aren't you going to attend the martial arts festival? Let us go and see the excitement!"
Chen Nian: Damn, you 1.8 meter tall man, don't act like a baby to me.
If we can let them visit the underground city, Chen Nian still needs to ask Gu Qingyue's opinion.
"These are my people, I can guarantee they won't mess around."
"Yes, I believe you!" Gu Qingyue agreed happily, "But after finally coming to the ground, I don't want to go back so soon. Please take me around for a while first!"
Everyone: Boss, please take the princess on a date, we will turn a blind eye!
Chen Nian thought for a while, "You probably haven't seen the sunset."
"Sunset?!"
Gu Qingyue couldn't laugh or cry, "Don't blame me. The exploration teams who have been to the ground have never seen it. The setting sun means it is getting dark. Don't run away and wait to die!"
"Let's go, I'll take you to watch the sunset today."
Chen Nian brought Gu Qingyue to a hillside with a good view.
The two of them sat on the edge of the cliff, quietly waiting for the whereabouts of Sun.
At dusk, the sun was setting and the entire sky was dyed a sad and beautiful red.
"This is the sunset... it's so beautiful."
Gu Qingyue couldn't even bear to blink, she wanted to engrave all this deeply in her mind.
Looking at it, she leaned into Chen Nian's arms.
This moment is peaceful and beautiful.
She even hoped that time could freeze at this second, but no matter how beautiful the sunset was, it would disappear...
"It's time to go."
Chen Nian picked up Gu Qingyue, turned his back to the last ray of sunset between heaven and earth, and returned to the guild.
"It's getting dark, and a black disaster is coming..." Gu Qingyue's eyes showed worry.
"It's okay, we can resist the black disaster."
The guild's defense barrier opened, easily blocking out the black disaster, leaving Gu Qingyue dumbfounded.
"There is such a magical power... It's a pity that the scope is too small, otherwise our people might really be able to live on the ground."
"Using barriers to resist is not a long-term solution. We still have to cut off the source and eliminate the black disaster." Chen Nian said, this is his main mission.
"But how can the Black Disaster be eradicated... will that day really happen?"
"There will be."
