Ch. 519 - Miss Gu's Exceedingly Stubbornness

The moon had set, but the sun had not yet risen.

Above the vast wilderness, dark clouds covered the stars and the moon, making it hard to breathe.

Dozens of immortal flying boats wrapped in black spiritual armor, neatly arranged above the black clouds, broke through the air and rushed toward the northwest.

On the observation deck of the front immortal boat, Yun Tianchong was wearing a golden and white robe, with a sword case engraved with the Yun family totem on his back. Looking at the light spots in the rift in front of him, the double plum tattoo between his eyebrows gradually revealed a burst of spiritual light. 

"Master..."

Hearing the gentle call from behind, Yun Tianchong retracted his gaze and turned around.

Elder Tianxing, Yun Yiyi, and about twenty Core Formation-stage disciples stood in front of him. Except for Yun Yiyi, the others all bowed and stood solemnly, looking at him.

When Zhuang Yan revived Yun Kunwu, Elder Tianxing used his personal power to attack Yun Kunwu, and although he still had the Nascent Soul cultivation, his strength was not as good as before.

So, Yun Tianchong also arranged for him to stay with Yun Yiyi and protect his eldest daughter together with the twenty or so people. "Tianxing, Yiyi is in your care. If the situation is not right, don't hesitate. Take her back to Seven Star Pass immediately."

"Understood."

Yun Yiyi looked at her father's inexplicable high-spirited appearance, and she was quite impressed in her heart. If Ye Anping hadn't come to Sword Sect, her lousy father would still be the same as before.

Although she knew that Ye Anping was in Heavenly Sorrow City, so there would be no accidents, after hesitating for a while, Yun Yiyi still took a step forward, took out a ring from the storage bag, and called out. "Dad." 

Yun Tianchong saw her hesitating, and he slightly bent his knees, letting Yun Yiyi hang the ring around his neck. "Come back alive..." Yun Yiyi narrowed her eyes and smiled, then retreated to Elder Tianxing's side and nodded to him. 

Elder Tianxing understood and bowed to Yun Tianchong again. With a wave of his sleeves, he took Yun Yiyi and the twenty-so disciples and turned into several golden lights, heading toward the immortal boat at the end of the flying ship formation. 

Yun Tianchong didn't come back to his senses for a long time. He walked to the side of the observation deck and watched Yun Yiyi's flying boat at the end of the formation turn around and go in the opposite direction. He seemed relieved as he raised his hand and clenched the safety pendant that Yun Yiyi had just put on him, with a gentle look in his eyes.

He knew that he had been bad to Yun Yiyi and her sisters in the past, which also caused the three of them to hate him, their father.

And after Yun Jiujiu's kick, he always wanted to make up for the three of them and ease their relationship.

Unfortunately, it was easy to miss something, but it was hard to make up for it.

Over the years, he had made a lot of efforts but with little result.

But now, after receiving Yun Yiyi's safety pendant, he had an illusion that his wish had been fulfilled, and there was nothing to worry about.

Yun Tianchong took a deep breath, flew into the air from the observation deck, and summoned a spiritual sword wrapped in golden spiritual light in his right hand before turning to face the black armor flying boats with the flags of the Sword Sect.

His golden eyes swept over every Elder and every disciple on the deck.

Then, he used his spiritual power to amplify his voice to everyone's ears. "Back then, a man with a sword divided the four regions up to the three rivers in the north. This happened when our master, Immortal Yun Jian, was feared throughout the entire Heavenly Realm. These days, the old man Gong Yue from Heavenly Sorrow City thought that my Sword Sect would be slaughtered without Immortal Yun Jian. He killed my daughter and injured the sect's descendants. Can you tolerate this?!"

"No!! No!! No!!"

Thousands of disciples responded in unison in a deafening roar that echoed for hundreds of miles.

Yun Tianchong turned around and raised his sword, pointing it at Heavenly Sorrow City with a shout. "Then, let the evil demons of the Eastern Region see what happens if they anger the Sword Sect of the Southern Region! All disciples, listen to the orders, line up, and kill some demons!!!"

...

Meanwhile, in the Princess's Mansion in Heavenly Sorrow City.

The doors and windows of the backyard bedroom were closed.

The wood stove had gone out, and the room was a little cold.

Behind the bed curtain, Ye Anping leaned on the pillow. The girl in his arms, who used his chest as a pillow, had lost the bloody and violent aura that normally could not be hidden, and was still sleeping.

The morning light of winter penetrated through the paper window, and Ye Anping had lost count of how many times he had seen the sunrise.

Originally, he wanted to teach Gu Mingxin a lesson she would remember for a long time so that she would not dare to force him again in the future.

But somehow, without realizing it, he got caught up in it, and the words "stop when you are done" were completely thrown at the back of his mind, so he gradually became unrestrained...

He couldn't remember the details, but vaguely remembered that Gu Mingxin alternated between "fainting" and "awake" almost throughout the whole process. She fainted for three breaths, opened her eyes, screamed, and then there was no movement again.

Finally, when Ye Anping saw that her breathing was a little weak, he came to his senses and let her rest in his arms.

As the sky brightened, the morning bell of the Heavenly Sorrow City rang outside the palace.

Dong—

Gu Mingxin's back tensed, and she suddenly opened her eyes, straightened her waist, and unconsciously shouted, "I'm sorry... woo."

Then, she quickly raised her hand and covered her mouth. It seemed that her body instinctively said out loud what she wanted to say before she fainted last time.

However, the soreness all over her body made Gu Mingxin, who had just straightened her waist, lie on Ye Anping's chest again. She raised her head in a daze, looking at the handsome face and the deep purple eyes staring at her closely.

In stark contrast to Ye Anping's calm gaze, Gu Mingxin's red eyes carried a complex feeling of disbelief and fear.

"You..."

Ye Anping just smiled contemptuously, pretending to be casual, and lifted her chin. "Awake?"

Gu Mingxin bit her lips tightly, and put on a "that's all?" look, nodding. "Yeah, I'm awake~"

"Then, let's continue..."

?!

Before Gu Mingxin could react, Ye Anping grabbed her shoulders, turned her around, and changed her position again. Gu Mingxin finally couldn't pretend this time as she hurriedly shouted, "No!!"

Gu Mingxin pushed Ye Anping's chest hard and turned her head away, but she couldn't use any strength, which made her look like a cat treading milk, amusing Ye Anping.

Seeing her like this, Ye Anping didn't want to continue. He turned over and moved away from her, sat on the edge of the bed, and took out a hairband to tie up his hair.

Gu Mingxin was originally tense, but when she saw Ye Anping flip over and go down, she regretted it, thinking that Ye Anping was deliberately frightening her and that he must be in trouble too.

She pouted and turned back into a naughty cat, stretching out her feet to scratch Ye Anping's waist. "Hmm? Didn't you say to continue? Haha..."

Ye Anping turned his head to look at her flirty appearance. Speechless for a while, he said, "Still stubborn?"

Gu Mingxin sat up with great effort, stepped on Ye Anping's back with her white feet, and pursed her mouth like a cat. "I'm not stubborn. Ye Anping, don't you like this kind of fragile girl? Wouldn't you like me more if I'm weaker now... Hehe... Let's continue."

Ye Anping sighed slightly. "Sigh–"

"No? Hehe..."

Ye Anping's eyes twitched slightly. He was blessed by Matriarch Red Moon and personally certified. He inexplicably felt irritated but suppressed it.

Things had their priorities, after all. Miss Gu could be taught a lesson at any time, but matters related to the Moon Shadow Sword Sect and Heavenly Sorrow City could not wait.

Dong—

The second-morning bell of Heavenly Sorrow City reverberated into the room.

Ye Anping ignored Gu Mingxin's taunting, looked toward the window, and called. "Xue'e."

Two breaths later, Xue'e stuck her head out from Ye Anping's forehead with a small wooden hammer in her hand. Seeing the stubborn look of her Mingxin, she sighed and tilted her head to Ye Anping. "Ye Anping, did you call me?"

Ye Anping stared at the small wooden hammer in Xue'e's hand, and then he realized that she must have been busy messing with Xiao Tian's house these two days, but he was in no mood to care, so he simply ignored it and said, "Go out and see if there is any new situation in the city. On the way..."

Ye Anping wanted her to go out and take a look, but halfway through the words, the third bell rang into the bedroom.

Dong-Dong-Dong—

However, the bell sound was no longer relaxed, but rapid and tense.

Ye Anping understood that the Sword Sect was probably here.

He let out a light breath and calmed down, then stood up and took out his outer robe from the storage bag and put it on. He turned his head to look at Gong Tianchan who had been lying there for three days and three nights, and then at Gu Mingxin who was naked on the bed.

Gu Mingxin, who was rubbing her belly, immediately raised her head with a challenging look when she saw him looking at her. "Hmm~?"

Feeling a little helpless, Ye Anping took out the clothes he had prepared for Feng Yu Die from the storage bag, sat back on the bed, and grabbed Gu Mingxin's ankle.

"Ah?"

Gu Mingxin was scared, thinking he was really going to continue, but after Ye Anping pulled her to the bed, he just took out a handkerchief, cleaned her up without saying a word, and then helped her put on her clothes.

Seeing that she was dressed, Gu Mingxin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at the window with a pout and asked, "Ye Anping~ What happened outside..."

"The Sword Sect is here."

"Oh..."

Because he often helped his sister dress before, Ye Anping took care of Gu Mingxin swiftly, and then took out a pill from the storage bag and stuffed it into her mouth: "Concentrate your energy quickly, I will make a mask."

After giving the brief order, Ye Anping's eyes darkened slightly. He lifted Gong Tianchan's head with his spiritual energy, took out a knife, and held his breath.

"Xue'e, help me with this..."

After all, the human skin mask was a method of the demonic cultivators, and he had never made one, but when Gu Mingxin made the Kong Huayuan mask last time, he was watching the whole process carefully. With Xue'e watching beside him, although it was not done perfectly, it could definitely be used.

Gong Tianchan only needed to fool a few Nascent Soul cultivators in the City Lord's Mansion with this face, but she didn't need to scare the Elders of the Ghost Spirit Sect.

Xue'e quickly put the small wooden hammer back under her skirt, took out the Heavenly Demonic Scroll, turned to that page, and floated in front of Ye Anping while dragging it. "Anping, just do it as you see fit. It's not difficult."

"Hmm..."

Gu Mingxin didn't say anything. She sat cross-legged beside him, closed her eyes, and turned her spiritual energy to digest the pill that Ye Anping had just given her.

By the time she felt that the soreness and weakness in her body had almost disappeared, Ye Anping also made the mask.

Gu Mingxin pursed her lips and suddenly felt that she was able to do it again. There was a hint of teasing in her eyes, and she asked, "After a few days when we finish the fight~ um..."

"Let's talk later."

Ye Anping threw the mask he had made to her, put on Kong Huayuan's mask, then got up and walked out into the courtyard with Gu Mingxin.

Buzz—

The sky, which should have shown the sunrise, was now covered with dark clouds. Red-gold bolts of lightning flashed through the clouds like dragons, emitting low roars.

Many servants of the Princess's Mansion passed by the bedroom. When they saw Ye Anping and Gu Mingxin coming out, they hurried over to pay their respects. "Master, Miss. The Moon Shadow Sword Sect is already outside the Heavenly Sorrow's trench. Just now, the city guard Yu Jian came to pass on the message. The City Lord said that you don't need to go to the mansion."

"Got it~"

Gu Mingxin got into the role quickly, pretending to be Gong Tianchan, and hooked Ye Anping's arm. "Mr. Liang, how about we go back to the room to continue?"

Xue'e and Ye Anping glanced at her almost at the same time but did not speak.

Gu Mingxin smiled playfully before replying to the maid, "Just kidding, the Sword Sect is coming to the city, how can I not go? You may leave. Mr. Liang and I will go to the City Lord's Mansion now."

"...Yes, Miss."

The maid didn't dare to say anything more as she nodded and ran away.

After watching her leave, Ye Anping finally spoke. "Miss Gu."

"Hmm~?"

"Let me be frank. If you continue to do this... then it won't be solved by just being weak-legged or saying sorry."

Gu Mingxin narrowed her eyes and smiled, and then a bit of sharpness appeared in her red eyes. "Don't worry, Ye Anping~ I'm much more useful than that white fool~... Let's go~ I'll kill some demonic cultivators for you, hehe—"

Ye Anping didn't reply. He summoned his flying sword and hugged Gu Mingxin's waist on it, took off from the backyard of the Princess's Mansion, and headed toward the twelve-story Heavenly Sorrow Pavilion in the north of the city.
