Douluo Continent: Ning Rongrong? Even a dog wouldn't chase her.

"If you're a man, show some magnanimity!"

Chapter 124 The Battle for the Blame

"No! Wu'er!"

Huo Ming pulled Huo Wu back, then glared at Gu Yi with a look of grim determination.

"Gu Yi, I have offended you today. If you want revenge, then go ahead and attack me. I will bear your wrath alone!"

"But please forgive Wu'er. She's just a little willful. Please don't take your anger out on her."

Huo Ming had doted on Huo Wu since she was a child, so how could he stand by and watch his daughter stand in front of him? Since someone had to bear the anger, he, as the father, would do it!

"No! Father, this is trouble caused by Wu'er, so naturally I should take responsibility."

"Gu Yi! I suppose the person you most want to take revenge on is me!"

"Don't harm my family, or I'll do whatever you want with them!"

Huo Wu ignored Huo Ming's attempts to stop her; all she wanted to do now was to take on Gu Yi's 'rage'.

She had been listening to the conversation between Huo Ming and Bai Qiu the whole time and already understood the seriousness of the situation.

She didn't want her family to be harmed because of her own actions.

"No! Wu'er, don't be stubborn!"

"Gu Yi, don't listen to her. If you have any problems, come to me!"

And so, the two of them began a fierce battle over who was to take the blame, right before Gu Yi's bewildered eyes.

Gu Yi was at a loss for words, unable to even get a word in edgewise.

"enough!"

Suddenly, a furious shout rang out from the hall. The voice was mixed with soul power, making it particularly jarring to hear.

"Where do you think this is? A farmers' market?"

"Who gave you permission to make such a loud noise here?"

As the sound rang out, another figure appeared in the arena—the ghost who had arrived a few days earlier!

"Your voice seems louder, Elder Ghost. You almost pierced my ears."

Gu Yi rubbed his ears while complaining.

"Hmph! You have the nerve to say that?"

"What's going on here? Why are they making such a fuss?"

"I couldn't even get a proper conversation with those guys upstairs."

Ghostly's face was full of anger; clearly, he had been holding back for a long time.

"How should I know? I just came to look for Hu Liena, and they suddenly rushed out."

As he spoke, Gu Yi turned his gaze to Huo Wu and Huo Ming beside him and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"You were just saying all that stuff, what have you been up to now?"

Gu Yi always finishes what he's going to do on the same day. If he doesn't, it means he doesn't take the matter to heart.

That's why he can't understand Huo Wu and Huo Ming's behavior now.

"We...we want to apologize to you. We really underestimated you today and didn't know who you were, which is why we offended you."

"Please forgive my mistake and not hold it against me."

Upon seeing Gu Yi's question, Huo Ming immediately began to apologize.

His tone was so sincere, he was practically kneeling before Gu Yi.

"So that's it."

Gu Yi now understood what they had been doing earlier; they were afraid that he would blame them for what happened today.

But in fact, Gu Yi had long since put that matter out of his mind, anyway...

I didn't feel anything.

"Since that's the case, then you can leave."

"I'll let it go because you apologized so sincerely."

Gu Yi waved his hand and said casually.

"that's it?"

Huo Wu and Huo Ming were both stunned, they really didn't expect that things could be resolved so easily.

"Otherwise, what else do you want?"

"How about I make you suffer a little more, so you'll learn your lesson?"

Gu Yi stared at Huo Wu and asked in return.

"No! Thank you for your magnanimity! Wu'er, let's go!"

With Gu Yi saying such things, Huo Ming dared not stay any longer and had to quickly pull the stunned Huo Wu away.

Huo Wu let Huo Ming pull her along, but her gaze remained fixed on Gu Yi, as if she couldn't look away.

The outcome of this matter was far different from what she had expected. She never imagined that Gu Yi would let them go so easily.

But Gu Yi was too lazy to pay attention to them anymore, and instead started chatting with Gui Mei.

"What has Elder Ghost been doing these past few days?"

Is Huliena upstairs?

Actually, Gu Yi didn't know what to say to Hu Liena when they met, but he would just have to play it by ear.

"Nana?"

"She still hasn't come back."

"He said he was going to watch the qualifiers, and then he never came back."

"What? Do you need to see Nana?"

The ghost stared at Gu Yi, its tone of reply extremely flat.

"Not back yet?"

"That can't be right, the qualifiers should have ended long ago, right?"

"Fine, I'll go find her myself then. Goodbye, Elder Ghost."

After saying that, Gu Yi quickly turned around and walked out of the Spirit Hall's gate.

He might not be able to help other people, but he has special methods when it comes to those on the list of goddesses.

However, he had been ignoring this thing until just now.

When he first met Zhu Zhuqing, he discovered this function of the system, but he had forgotten about it because he hadn't used it for so long.

Otherwise, it might not have been so troublesome when I was looking for Qian Renxue before.

"System, please help me find Hu Liena's location."

As Gu Yi finished speaking, a virtual map appeared in his mind.

"Ok?"

"Is that where Sunset Forest is located?"

"What was she doing there?"

"And who are those four white dots next to her?"

In the virtual map, Hu Liena's red dot is constantly moving closer to the core area of ​​Sunset Forest.

Meanwhile, to her upper right, there were four white dots chasing after her at the same speed.

"Has she gotten herself into trouble? Is she being chased?"

I remember when Gu Yi first met Zhu Zhuqing, it was probably like this.

"Forget it, I'll go take a look. Maybe it's an opportunity."

Thinking of this, Gu Yi immediately summoned his bone wings and flew straight towards Sunset Forest.

……

Sunset Forest, on the edge of the core area.

Just as seen on Gu Yi's map, Hu Liena was steadily approaching the heart of the forest.

But there was no sign of tension or anxiety on her face. On the contrary, she was looking around for something as she ran.

"Could it be that Elder Ju guessed wrong?"

"Actually, Gu Yi didn't obtain that immortal herb here?"

Hu Liena muttered to herself.

Before she came here, Yue Guan had asked her to do something in the Papal Palace.

That means we must explore this Sunset Forest. According to Yue Guan's guess, Gu Yi most likely obtained all those immortal herbs from here.

"Probably not?"

"Elder Ju's guess is indeed very logical, so there shouldn't be any problems."

She still remembers what Yue Guan said to her back then.

“Nana, when I went to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to investigate Gu Yi, I found out some information.”

"Gu Yi was sent out to find the 'treasure' when Zhu Zhuqing had her accident, and the accident happened in Sunset Forest."

"But why did Gu Yi happen to appear in Sunset Forest as well?"

"Is it possible that the place where Gu Yi went to search for this treasure was Sunset Forest?"
