Mountains and rivers are waiting for you to return

Chapter 59 Crying Blood
All the experienced people present were stunned.

They never thought that one day they would be able to see the real Pei family spear again.

There is even the most shocking "Ten Thousand Troops Returning Arrows" move that once dominated the battlefield, where one spear could deflect stray arrows and kill the archer.

Gu Jinheng's face was frighteningly pale, and it was unclear whether it was due to excessive blood loss or what.

He clenched his left hand, and the broken porcelain pieces in his palm instantly turned into powder and scattered all over the ground.

For the first time, Pei Nai saw a hint of madness in his eyes.

She realized that she had done the wrong thing and said the wrong thing. She had fallen into a trap and her identity was completely exposed. Panic filled her chest for a moment.

Gu Jinheng tilted his head slightly, took a deep breath, and seemed to be trying hard to control himself.

But everyone could feel that the air around them suddenly became scorching.

The pressure came in an instant.

Those who did not have a deep foundation in martial arts, including Yixi, were now unable to stand steadily and were about to fall down.

Ju Liancheng didn't care that he was still injured and stepped forward to support Yixi.

"Han Ruize's adopted sister?"

Gu Jinheng's words were full of coldness. "Now you would rather use this identity than have anything to do with me, right?"

Pei Nai said nothing.

Gu Jinheng's eyes were no longer as calm as usual; countless complex emotions were surging in his pupils.

Pei Nai couldn't see clearly what was contained in it, but she was sure that Gu Jinheng had lost all his composure.

He walked towards Pei Nai step by step.

"What? You want to say that Han Ruize also taught you how to use the Zhubei Spear, and then continue acting?" Gu Jinheng's words brought endless chill.

"You have gone to so much trouble to avoid seeing me, but even after ten years, it still cannot offset the hatred in your heart."

No matter how smart Gu Jinheng was, he couldn't guess about rebirth.

Pei Nai thought that Gu Jinheng probably thought that she had faked her death ten years ago, which was why he said that.

He stared into Pei Nai's eyes and slowly approached.

Everyone was stunned by this sudden change, and the air pressure around them was terrifying.

They were puzzled as to what Duke Duan Ding meant.

But no matter what they were thinking, no one dared to step forward to stop them.

Everyone made way.

Pei Nai's heartbeat kept speeding up, so fast that his breathing became disordered.

She took a step back.

Pei Nai never dared to think, what would happen if Gu Jinheng knew that she was still alive?

And now, he knows.

It has been ten years. She had no way of knowing Gu Jinheng's feelings for her before, let alone it has been so long, long enough for time to heal everything.

Even if there is a tiny bit of affection, it will fade away, right?
So what will he do?
Kill her and conceal the agreement between the two armies; or lock her up and keep those shameful secrets forever.
Yixi thought that it was Pei Nai's subconscious action that angered Duke Duan Ding.

He immediately stood up and anxiously pleaded for her, "Mingzhi was worried about my safety, so she didn't know how to control her strength, and that's why she accidentally hurt Duke Duan Ding. Duke Duan Ding, please consider her young age and spare her this time."

Gu Jinheng glanced at her and said angrily, "Everyone get out!"

Everyone had to obey orders and dared not look again. Yixi was also pulled out by her father, Prince Guangping.

The door is closed.

All of a sudden, Gu Jinheng and Pei Nai were the only ones left in the huge study room.

At this time, Gu Jinheng did not speak for a long time.

He was already close, his gaze so fierce that it forced Pei Nai to retreat until he had nowhere to retreat and his back was against the wall.

At this point, Pei Nai's only hope is that he will give her freedom because of the relationship they had spent together in the past.

It would be best if they never met again in this life.

When she finds out the reason for her rebirth, she will leave Chaoyang and go somewhere else. They will part ways and never come back.

But when Gu Jinheng's face was right in front of him, his bloodshot and red eyes, the emotion he revealed did not seem to be anger.

There was an inexplicable sadness and a hint of pain in his eyes.

Before this, Pei Nai would never have imagined that one day she would see such an expression on Gu Jinheng's face.

There was a moment of hesitation.

Gu Jinheng raised his uninjured right hand and reached for Pei Nai's neck.

Pei Nai slapped him with his backhand.

He used his bloody left hand to block it, but the sudden strong wind hit his palm and was completely destroyed.

Being able to block the attack from the Ten Thousand Hates Palm, even though Gu Jinheng's martial arts had reached perfection and were unfathomable, the collision just now seemed calm on the surface, but in fact he had also mobilized the divine energy of the alchemy.

The wound on the palm of his left hand was torn again, and blood was oozing out, and it seemed that the bleeding was difficult to stop.

Pei Nai didn't expect him to be so extreme and said, "You are crazy!"

Gu Jinheng ignored it and restrained her right arm with his bloody left hand, as if he didn't feel the pain.

His right hand fell at this moment and stroked Pei Nai's neck, but only touched smooth skin without the slightest uneven spot.

He never found the bump on the edge where he thought it would be.

The voice was no longer majestic, it was much lowered and even a little hoarse.

“Isn’t it a human skin mask?”

Since he had been discovered and there was no way to escape, Pei Nai pushed him away.

With some sarcasm, he curled his lips and said, "Where did the human skin mask come from? The person you are looking for died ten years ago. Now he is a ghost who has resurrected. Aren't you afraid?"

Gu Jinheng looked at her without saying anything for a long time.

Pei Nai's eyes were filled with coldness and alienation. "You can just pretend that I haven't come back. You've already got what you wanted. I don't owe you anything, and I won't get in your way anymore. Once I find out what I want to know, I'll leave. From now on, we'll go our separate ways."

At this time, Gu Jinheng stepped forward and interrupted Pei Nai.

He held Pei Na tightly in his arms, but he didn't dare touch her body with his injured left hand, which just hung in the air.

Pei Nai tried to resist, but Li Feng was defeated.

With no weapons around her, she only had the strength of her body, but compared to Gu Jinheng, her strength was completely suppressed.

Both of them were trembling slightly, and they didn't know who caused it.

He finally spoke again, "You were the one who found me in the first place, you can't leave me behind again."

Pei Nai smelled a familiar scent with a hint of ambergris, a scent that had made her heart palpitate countless times. In an instant, she lost the courage to push it away, and she just stood there in a daze.

Any contact with Gu Jinheng is her poison.

These words softened her heart a little.

Until the blood flowing from Gu Jinheng's palm "dripping" onto the ground, breaking the silence.

Pei Nai's mind suddenly became clear.

The internal force surged out, blocking Gu Jinheng's pressure and pushing him away.

Countless scenes reappeared before her eyes, and that extreme pain came over her.

Suddenly her blood boiled, and she finally asked the question she had wanted to ask for a long time, but every word was heartbreaking.

"Who abandoned whom? Why didn't you come ten years ago? I have been waiting for you with the Pei Army! I waited until my heart was blown away by the cold wind, until it was torn into pieces, until I was completely broken and emaciated, but I still couldn't wait for you! You made a promise, why didn't you come?!!"

By the end of her speech, she was a little hoarse.

Gu Jinheng looked at her deeply, his eyes aching, but he said nothing.

At this moment, it was as if he had never cultivated to the great perfection of Huo Jiangyin Gong, and was still the inexperienced, despised mute.

Unable to speak.
