"I gained something, and it can save my life."
Gu Wuchen gave a brief reply.
Those two guys in the Sea of Consciousness probably don't want to reveal themselves yet, because they're fighting the Two Empresses of Ice and Snow.
Bo Saixi clearly sensed some powerful fluctuations in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, but he didn't know exactly what was happening.
However, Chen'er had his own ideas.
As the aunt, there was no need for her to say anything more; on the contrary, she was more interested in the Immortal Herb in front of her.
This place is filled with immense power; Sea God Island has no such rare treasures.
"Is Young Master Gu going back to Heaven Dou City? I can go with you." Dugu Bo finished his attack and asked briefly.
It's about time I went back. I've been here for three whole months. I wonder how Yanyan is doing at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
"Great idea! Perfect timing to take my aunt to Heaven Dou City for a stroll."
Gu Wuchen agreed.
Without hesitation, the three left the Star Dou Great Forest and headed for Heaven Dou City.
At this moment, within the Sea of Consciousness.
Ice Empress and the Fire Dragon King are locked in a fierce battle.
"You newcomer, what are you pretending for? You signed Master-Servant Contract with Little Wuchen, and you're acting all high and mighty in front of me."
" Ice Empress, watch your words. Although we have Master-Servant Contract, we are still Demigod. Besides, why should Gu Wuchen listen to you?"
The Fire Dragon King snorted coldly.
As for Snow Empress and Ice Empress, they didn't want to get involved in the two's argument.
I just want to stay quiet.
The Snow Empress kept wondering why Bo Saixi hadn't left yet, as she herself couldn't reveal herself. Meanwhile, the Ice Dragon King pondered what his future fate would hold.
The three of them traveled at high speed and arrived at the city gate of Heaven Dou City in less than half a day.
The towering city walls stand majestically, and the city gates are bustling with people and vehicles.
The sounds of hawking, laughter, and horses' hooves mingled together.
Bo Saixi stood at the city gate, her eyes slightly widened, curiously surveying everything before her.
The shops along the street had colorful signs, street vendors pushed their carts and called out their wares, and pedestrians in all sorts of clothes brushed past her; everything seemed new and interesting to her.
" Heaven Dou City is even more lively than I imagined," Bo Saixi said softly, a hint of surprise in her voice.
Gu Wuchen nodded with a smile:
"This is the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, so it's naturally prosperous. Auntie, I'll show you around today."
Dugu Bo, standing to the side, tactfully spoke up:
" Young Master Gu, High Priest, I'll take my leave now. I'm going to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to see Yanyan. Please let me know if anything happens."
"Alright, Senior Dugu, take care." Gu Wuchen nodded.
Dugu Bo cupped his hands in greeting, then turned into a streak of green light and flew towards the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Gu Wuchen led Bo Saixi through the city gate and strolled leisurely along the main street.
He bought Bo Saixi a string of candied hawthorns. Bo Saixi took a careful bite, and the sweet and sour taste melted on her tongue, instantly brightening her eyes.
"This is delicious," Bo Saixi mumbled between bites.
Gu Wuchen couldn't help but laugh when he saw her like this.
The usually dignified and solemn High Priest of Sea God Island was now like a little girl eating candy for the first time.
Smirking, Bo Saixi naturally saw it but wasn't annoyed. She simply opened her mouth, took a piece in her mouth, and patted Gu Wuchen's shoulder.
"What's wrong, little..." Gu Wuchen hadn't finished speaking when a piece of candied hawthorn flew into his throat, still moist.
"Cough cough." Gu Wuchen coughed, his face flushed red. "Auntie, what are you doing? I almost couldn't hold it in."
Bo Saixi chuckled lightly, "This is a reward for you. No need to thank me, Auntie."
Gu Wuchen finally swallowed it down, then pouted, "Who wants to thank me?"
Next.
The two strolled along, browsing through exquisite jewelry shops, watching street performances, and buying many novel trinkets.
Bo Saixi was in high spirits, stopping to look at and ask about everything he saw.
Gu Wuchen patiently stayed with her, answering her questions one by one.
In the Sea of Consciousness, the argument between Ice Empress and the Fire Dragon King continues.
"It's so noisy! Can't you be quiet!" Snow Empress said impatiently. "Can't you see Little Wuchen outside? Let me have some peace and quiet!"
Ice Empress and Fire Dragon King then reluctantly shut their mouths.
Before we knew it, the sun was setting, and the sky was tinged with an orange-red sunset.
The number of pedestrians on the street gradually decreased, and lights were turned on in every household.
Gu Wuchen looked up at the sky and smiled:
"Auntie, it's getting dark, we should go back."
Bo Saixi then came to her senses and nodded, somewhat reluctantly:
"Great, I didn't expect the mainland to be so interesting, much more fun than Sea God Island."
Gu Wuchen laughed and said, "Of course. Although you are Peerless Douluo, you spend most of your time on Sea God Island and rarely come out. So, when you first arrived here, you were just like a country girl visiting the city."
Yes, that description is very reasonable.
Ouch.
Gu Wuchen's smugness didn't last long before he was hit on the head again.
Bo Saixi shook his fist. "Enough with the nonsense!"
"Oh." Gu Wuchen obediently shut his mouth, though he was quite dissatisfied.
You're my aunt, what can I do?
They could only obediently accept it.
After turning into two quiet alleys, an elegant villa came into view.
Gu Wuchen pushed open the door and led Bo Saixi inside.
The courtyard was filled with all kinds of flowers and plants, and in the center was a small pond where several koi carp swam leisurely.
The cobblestone paths meander through the rooms, creating an Qing Ya and comfortable overall ambiance.
"Not bad." Bo Saixi looked around and nodded in satisfaction. "It's better than I expected. Chen'er chose a very good place."
"Of course," Gu Wuchen said with a smile. "I specifically chose a quiet place where no one will disturb us. Auntie, the room on the east side has the best lighting, so you can sleep there. The bedding is all new and untouched; it's very clean."
"You must be tired after a long day of sightseeing." Bo Saixi waved her hand. "Go and rest, don't worry about me."
"Good."
Gu Wuchen nodded. "Then Auntie, you should get some rest too. Call me anytime if you need anything."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards his master bedroom.
As I pushed open the door, a faint scent of sandalwood wafted out.
Gu Wuchen let out a long sigh of relief, finally relieving his exhaustion.
He casually tossed his outer robe onto the chair and collapsed onto the soft bed.
First came the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, then I went shopping with my aunt. After a tiring day, we can finally rest.
In the side room, Bo Saixi lay on the bed, unable to sleep at all.
"Is he too excited?"
Bo Saixi muttered to himself.
She lifted the covers, sat on the bed, and gently swung her small feet, which were crystal clear and quite beautiful.
" Chen'er is tired; it wouldn't be good for him to go looking for me." Bo Saixi looked at the moon outside the window, "It's exceptionally beautiful, though."
The mainland is indeed different from Sea God Island.
I'll get up early tomorrow and make breakfast for Chen'er; I can't keep making Chen'er worry.
