Simultaneous travel: My sons all have the qualities of an emperor

Chapter 376 The Seventh Day of the Seventh Lunar Month, Bamboo Pavilion on the Huai River

"Speaking of which, this must be the Southern Kingdom. It is indeed a place of unique beauty, quite different from the landscape of my Qi Dao Alliance."

"I've come this far, but I don't know when a wife will fall from the sky for me."

Under a clear blue sky, amidst the clouds, a figure in white robes wearing a comical, grotesque mask rode a sword, the wind rustling through his sleeves, adding to his indescribable charm.

Having said that, Wang Quanbaye, or rather Gu Ming, looked around in the clouds, as if searching for something.

Unfortunately, Gu Ming was disappointed; no wife fell from the sky. However, he did not give up. He had only just arrived in the South and there was still plenty of time. As long as he was patient enough, his wife would naturally fall from the sky.

This isn't because Gu Ming has lost his mind; it's simply because he understands the plot of this world too well. In this world, he really can find a wife.

From the day he transmigrated, after learning that his name was Wang Quan Baye and that he was destined to be the future head of the Wang Quan family in the Yi Qi Dao Alliance, he knew what kind of world he had entered.

That is—Fox Spirit Matchmaker!

This is a truly magnificent world, inhabited by humans, demons, and cultivators. Flying through the sky and escaping into the earth, turning rivers and seas upside down are all commonplace for them.

When Gu Ming learned about this, he grinned from ear to ear. This world not only fulfilled Gu Ming's yearning for immortality, but also gave him a perfect start.

He is the future head of a royal family, the most prestigious family in this world. There are very few who can compare with him, and he is exceptionally talented, making him one of the most outstanding young men in his lifetime.

It can be said that as long as one doesn't do anything reckless, the lower limit of one's life is great wealth and honor, and the upper limit is achieving great success.

Of course, the reason why we say not to court death is because this world is divided into insiders and outsiders.

In the ancient era, four chaotic monkeys were born, and they established the Kingdom of Aolai. One day, the eldest son of the Kingdom of Aolai, the Long-Armed Ape, broke through another dimension during a test of his supernatural powers.

This space is filled with many strange, even bizarre, creatures that flow into the world of Fox Spirit Matchmaker. Anyone who is touched by these creatures will be completely assimilated and become part of them.

Thus, the first to die was the eldest son of Aolai Kingdom, and the war between the two sides broke out.

Compared to creatures outside the circle, those inside, whether human or demon, appear far too weak. Of the four monkeys of Aolai, only the fourth one survived; the Six-Eared Macaque and the Third Young Master died in battle one after another.

However, due to some unknown twist of fate, the Third Young Master of Aolai was resurrected and possessed world-destroying power, forcefully defeating all creatures outside the circle.

Just then, another celestial treasure descended from the opened otherworld, severely injuring the Third Young Master of Aolai.

Therefore, before the Third Young Master of Aolai went into seclusion to heal his injuries, he used the Dinghai Staff to draw a boundary. The area inside the boundary was the inner circle, and the area outside the boundary was the outer circle. Any creature outside the circle that tried to cross this boundary would be reduced to nothing.

Gu Ming's original self, Wang Quanba Ye, learned of the existence of the outside world after traveling the world at this point in the original timeline, and became curious about it.

Then, leading the outstanding young disciples of other families in the Qi Dao Alliance, they shattered the border city and went outside the circle. After that... they were almost completely wiped out!
Gu Ming, who was familiar with the plot, would naturally not make such a reckless move. He was still young and should just develop his skills properly. Taking unnecessary risks is dangerous. In the martial arts world, the most important thing is to be steady.

He also repeatedly advised the outstanding scions of the aristocratic families around him that when traveling, prudence should be the top priority, and with their talent, they would eventually reach the peak of cultivation.

Fortunately, Gu Ming was powerful, and those scions of noble families respected him and listened to his advice to some extent. However, Gu Ming's biological younger sister was a troublemaker who was always eager to cause chaos, which worried Gu Ming a lot.

However, considering the prestige he held among other scions of prominent families, and the fact that his younger sister alone was no match for him, Gu Ming felt relatively at ease.

Now he has come to the Southern Kingdom out of curiosity about what his destined spouse looks like.

That night, Gu Ming arrived at a city in the southern country. He had just paid the money and asked for a luxurious double room to go to sleep when he suddenly felt a strong wind rising between heaven and earth, and a great demonic aura.

"Huh? Here we come!"

With a thought, Gu Ming burst out of the window, riding his sword and making a sharp whooshing sound, like an arrow flying forward.

In a gust of wind that was clearly visible, a woman in green appeared to be struggling helplessly. The moment she looked at him, she lost all strength and her eyes slowly closed.

Gu Ming immediately raised an eyebrow. Without hesitation, the long sword beneath his feet seemed to come alive and enter his hand. Then, his aura changed, and his original handsome and dashing demeanor transformed into a cold and sharp one.

These ten years of training have not been in vain. In terms of swordsmanship, the head steward of the Wangquan family said that he could almost look down on all swordsmen!
"cut!"

Gu Ming parted his lips slightly, and the long sword in his hand slid. For a moment, the world was still, and then a sword light bloomed. The originally fierce wind stopped abruptly and then shattered.

Gu Ming reacted quickly, using his movement technique to catch Dongfang Huaizhu, who was falling without any support.

The moment his hands embraced her, Gu Ming felt as if he were holding a warm, soft body, which made his heart flutter and he couldn't help but look down.

With just one glance, Gu Ming was stunned. The girl in his arms was so beautiful and perfectly matched his aesthetic.

Simply put, Gu Ming is in love.

Her willow-leaf eyebrows were like distant mountains shrouded in mist, her eyes were slightly drooping and charming, and a faint golden divine fire, unique to the Eastern Spirit Clan, was faintly visible between her brows. She was truly a woman of cool elegance and natural beauty.

Upon landing, Gu Ming was momentarily at a loss. Should he take him back to the inn or leave him here? Would taking him back to the inn cause Dongfang Huaizhu to mistake him for a lecher?

This makes things difficult, since sometimes love requires not only sincerity but also strategy.

Then Gu Ming reached out and summoned countless leaves, which fell and gathered to form a protective barrier. He then sat cross-legged and gently placed Dongfang Huaizhu on his lap.

He then transferred his breath to Dongfang Huaizhu to warm her body and treat her already minor injuries.

The next day, as dawn broke, Dongfang Huaizhu let out a groan, her consciousness hazy and confused. She seemed to have been knocked away in a fight, and her younger sister was even more...

"younger sister!"

Thinking of her younger sister, Dongfang Huaizhu suddenly felt uneasy. Then she suddenly woke up and heard a rushing sound. She immediately became alert and turned her head to look at the source of the sound.

Then she saw lush green leaves falling from the sky, obscuring her view. Through the leaves, Dongfang Huaizhu looked at a large tree, on which stood a young man in white, his back to her, holding a sword in his arms, looking utterly carefree.

In an instant, Dongfang Huaizhu recalled the scene from yesterday. She was an intelligent woman, and in a flash, she connected everything together.

"He saved me."

Dongfang Huaizhu's heart stirred, just then a breeze rose, and the sunlight shone on Gu Ming, making him look exceptionally handsome.

Moreover, Dongfang Huaizhu saw the mask on Gu Ming's face, and couldn't help but wonder what Gu Ming's face looked like.

"Are you that masked swordsman? Did you save me? Why don't you turn around and show yourself?" Dongfang Huaizhu called out. Gu Mingyi turned around and showed his comical and ugly mask to Dongfang Huaizhu.

Dongfang Huaizhu's eyes were originally bright, but the moment she saw that ugly-cute mask, the light diminished at a visible speed. This person's aesthetic sense... is truly beyond praise!

Hello, young lady.

Dongfang Huaizhu's lips twitched, her eyes filled with conflict, but in the end she still said, "Why don't you turn your face away?"

In an instant, Gu Ming's heart broke; he saw the disdain in the girl's eyes.

"No, no rush. The more dislike they have now, the bigger the contrast will be when I take off my mask. The most important thing right now is to build up goodwill."

Gu Ming knew that Dongfang Huaizhu's younger sister, Dongfang Qinlan, had been captured by a monster during last night's battle, but he also knew that Dongfang Qinlan had no life force, so he was not in a hurry to find her.

Then Gu Ming clasped his hands and said loudly, "Now that you are awake, and time is of the essence, I have a request to make."

After saying that, Gu Ming added with a hint of apology, "It's a little hard to say, but if that's the case, then I'll take the liberty of saying it."

"I am in urgent need of this, so I slayed you to chase away the demon. I will make it up to you in the future!"

Having said that, Gu Ming suddenly drew his sword from its sheath, and then moved like a gust of wind, carving a furrow in the grass. Dongfang Huaizhu watched in disbelief as the sharp sword came toward her.

However, she felt no fear. She did not sense any murderous intent from Gu Ming; she only saw the demeanor of a swordsman.

The blade gently severed a strand of her hair, and then Gu Ming soared into the sky, riding away on his sword.

Seeing Gu Ming's departing figure, Dongfang Huaizhu woke up with a start, then summoned her magic flute, placed it under her feet, and followed closely behind.

Gu Ming, who was flying on his sword, smiled slightly. Sure enough, they've arrived.

After speeding for a distance, he suddenly stopped, turned around to face Dongfang Huaizhu. Dongfang Huaizhu was also surprised by Gu Ming's actions and hurriedly stopped playing the flute, but her body still kept moving forward a considerable distance.

The two were in the clouds, very close, facing each other. Gu Ming could even feel the gentleness in Dongfang Huaizhu's breath and see her porcelain-white face turn red.

Just then, a gust of wind blew, intertwining their long hair. Dongfang Huaizhu's heart was in turmoil, and she hurriedly retreated. However, due to the intertwining of their hair, she couldn't help but cry out in pain, her body tilting slightly as if she were about to collapse backward.

With his keen eyesight and sharp mind, Gu Ming immediately stepped forward and pulled Dongfang Huaizhu into his arms again. Feeling the slenderness and warmth of her waist, he felt an indescribable flutter in his heart.

For a moment, Dongfang Huaizhu was at a loss, frozen in place, not daring to move.

Of course, everything should be done in moderation. Gu Ming, having browsed various forums in his previous life, though lacking practical experience, was full of theoretical knowledge. He immediately used his spiritual power to untangle his tangled hair and apologized:

"I apologize, things were urgent and I apologize for being so abrupt."

He then quietly released his grip on Dongfang Huaizhu's hand, appearing every inch the gentleman.

Dongfang Huaizhu also froze, but she was a rational person after all. Knowing that her sister was still missing, she immediately said, "I want to go with you. I want to save my sister."

Gu Ming seemed to be thinking for a moment, and then quickly gave his answer: "Okay, but I have two requests that you must agree to."

"Alright, go ahead and speak."

"First, you must not leave my side by more than five steps. Second, you must not make a move without permission."

Dongfang Huaizhu nodded silently, then a smile appeared on Gu Ming's lips beneath his mask. According to the secret method of the Wang Quan family, he would search for Dongfang Qinlan by following the strands of Dongfang Huaizhu's hair.

Both of them possessed considerable magical power, and they quickly traversed thousands of mountains and valleys, arriving at a building.

Dongfang Huaizhu frowned slightly and said, "This area has been sealed off with a poisonous miasma, so it's not safe for us to sneak in."

Gu Minglang laughed loudly: "Why sneak in? Let's walk in openly and honestly! Sword, come!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he had his sword in hand. Then, he activated his profound skill, and an extremely sharp aura emanated from Gu Ming's body, which continued to rise until it reached its peak!
"cut!"

The next moment, the sword energy flashed, so bright that Dongfang Huaizhu could hardly open his eyes. He had to use his magic to protect his eyes so that he could see something. He saw the sea of ​​clouds surging under his feet, and then being cleaved in two by a sword. Both ends were clean cuts, which was shocking!
Immediately afterward, before Dongfang Huaizhu could react, she felt her hand being grasped, and then her body followed her.

"There's a monster below! Don't stray from my side!"

Gu Ming spoke again, then openly grasped Dongfang Huaizhu's hand, holding a long sword, and slashed all the way to the tail. Of course, he did not kill these demons, but only injured them to the point of being unable to fight.

Gu Ming was not a reckless person. This was the Southern Kingdom, home to the world's first Demon Emperor, the Demon Capital Qingtian. All Demon Emperors possessed immense magical power, and could be said to stand at the pinnacle of the demon race.

Although Gu Ming was confident in his abilities, he did not want to provoke anyone lightly, as he was unsure whether he could protect everyone and help them escape.

Furthermore, although humans and demons are currently at odds, they are not yet at the point of deep-seated hatred, and we must not cause a major disaster for the sake of momentary pleasure.

Then, as Gu Ming chopped up vegetables along the way, they arrived at the cell where Dongfang Qinlan was imprisoned. However, the little girl was not only unharmed, but also surrounded by various delicacies.

The little girl showed no fear, but looked at her older sister with surprise, and then let out a "Huh!"

Then his gaze turned somewhat ambiguous, revealing an expression completely out of character for his age.

Dongfang Huaizhu also noticed the teasing look in her younger sister's eyes, and hurriedly let go of Gu Ming's hand, but her heart was pounding.

Gu Ming didn't care at all, and then swung his sword again. The cage opened, and the little girl ran out in a flash, jumping onto Dongfang Huaizhu.

Then she whispered, "Sister, who is he? Why was he holding your hand just now?"

What seemed like an unintentional remark made Dongfang Huaizhu's pretty face turn bright red. Just as she was feeling embarrassed and at a loss, she heard...

“Miss, there are other people here. Please take them out first, as I have other matters to attend to.”

Having said that, Gu Ming walked out of the cage, giving Dongfang Huaizhu some quiet space, which also lessened Dongfang Huaizhu's embarrassment. She simply pinched her sister's cheek and said, "Children shouldn't talk nonsense."

Before Dongfang Qinlan could react, she heard a loud bang, clearly indicating that another battle had broken out outside the cage!
