Gu Long's World: Starting with the Legend of Chu Liuxiang
Chapter 13 A Woman with No Beauty
Shi Guanyin arrived quickly. Jiang Fengyue could already hear the sound of another desert boat, with the cry of an eagle and the rustling sound of the boat sliding on the sand.
Jiang Fengyue activated his white-robed divine hearing and heard footsteps slowly approaching the cabin.
After a brief exchange with the two traitors, Shi Guanyin spoke towards the dark cabin where Jiang Fengyue and the others were. Her inner strength was so profound that every word she spoke was accurately heard by everyone.
Shi Guanyin laughed and said, "I am truly astonished that the renowned Chu Liuxiang and the rising star Jiang Fengyue could become prisoners."
Yidianhong had already gripped the sword hilt, ready to rush out, but Jiang Fengyue gave him a wink, and he loosened his grip.
Chu Liuxiang said, "I have long heard of your unparalleled beauty, Madam. Would you please show yourself so I can witness it for myself?"
Chu Liuxiang gestured from inside the hidden compartment, indicating that Shi Guanyin should take action as soon as she entered.
Shi Guanyin smiled and said, "Don't worry, we'll have a chance to meet. I'm very interested in you all."
Chu Liuxiang asked, "How is it now?"
Shi Guanyin said, "You have so little patience?"
Chu Liuxiang sighed, "I'm afraid I won't live that long."
Shi Guanyin said calmly, "You will live until then."
Wu Hua then jumped out and shouted, "We can't let them live; they'll ruin our plans!"
Shi Guanyin coldly replied, "Why should you say anything more?"
She smiled and said, "Wouldn't it be incredibly boring for a famous singer to perform if no one was there to listen?"
Jiang Fengyue said, "What you say makes sense, Madam. I can't wait to see the end of this play."
Shi Guanyin smiled and said, "If no one has any objections, I will take these four people with me."
……
The towering rocks make you feel as if you've arrived at the end of the desert.
Jiang Fengyue and the others had transferred from the traitor's ship to Shi Guanyin's ship. The ship sailed into the stone peaks and stopped in a stone hollow.
Shi Guanyin did not show herself, but only had a man in white bring the four people back.
Jiang Fengyue knew that the man in white was Qu Wurong. He silently prayed to the heavens, hoping to get what he wanted.
"Check-in!"
"Signing in for Qu Wurong was successful, and the item 'Water of Rejuvenation' was obtained."
Jiang Fengyue breathed a sigh of relief. Heaven always treats those who do good deeds better, and he had obtained what he wanted as he had always wished.
Chu Liuxiang looked at Qu Wurong and asked, "Why is your face covered, young lady?"
Qu Wurong gave a bitter laugh: "Do you want to see my face?"
Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "I have long heard that all of Madam Shi's disciples are beauties of unparalleled grace. If I could catch a glimpse of their faces, I would die without regret."
Jiang Fengyue sighed inwardly. Chu Liuxiang, whom countless girls would fall in love with at first sight, had met someone who was completely unmoved by such charm.
Qu Wurong laughed wildly, "What a beauty! I'll show you my own beauty."
She removed the silk veil covering her face, and Chu Liuxiang could no longer laugh, nor could anyone else in the room.
Beneath the silk scarf lies a devilish face, ferocious and terrifying.
Qu Wurong laughed sternly, "Now do you see? You're really lucky. You must remember this: Qu Wurong is the ugliest woman in the world, and no one else can compare."
Just as Chu Liuxiang was about to speak, Jiang Fengyue grabbed his sleeve and shook her head.
Qu Wurong said, "Everyone, get off the ship. What are you still standing here for?"
Chu Liuxiang walked in front, and Yidianhong walked in the back.
When Yidianhong walked in front of Qu Wurong, she suddenly stopped and said, "You're not ugly, you're beautiful."
Qu Wurong seemed surprised that someone who hadn't uttered a single word the entire way would suddenly say such a thing. She trembled slightly and asked, "You... what did you say?"
Yidianhong didn't say another word and strode away.
Qu Wurong stared at him in a daze, unable to look away.
Jiang Fengyue secretly vowed to make sure that this ill-fated couple would suffer less hardship.
As they walked, they passed through the stone formation and came to see a sea of flowers.
The sweet fragrance of flowers wafted over, and Ji Bingyan and Yidianhong soon felt their legs go weak and fainted.
Jiang Fengyue was able to deal with it easily because she was immune to all poisons, while Chu Liuxiang, whose nose wasn't very sensitive, was also standing steadily as if nothing had happened.
Jiang Fengyue smiled and said, "What beautiful flowers, what wonderful fragrance."
Chu Liuxiang said, "Old Ji and Brother Hong have fainted at a time like this; it seems they won't be able to enjoy this moment of happiness."
Qu Wurong was secretly surprised. Logically speaking, without taking the antidote, it was impossible for a person to be completely unharmed in this sea of flowers.
Qu Wurong coldly asked, "Why are you all alright?"
Jiang Fengyue asked, "Shouldn't we have something to discuss?"
After speaking, Jiang Fengyue pretended that her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground. When she looked up, Chu Liuxiang's gaze also fell on her at that moment, and they smiled at each other.
Chu Liuxiang also collapsed, and the two of them slowly closed their eyes.
Qu Wurong sneered, "So it turns out you were just putting on a brave face."
Jiang Fengyue did not faint. He knew that this sea of flowers was a barrier set up by Shi Guanyin to prevent outsiders from finding this place. He concentrated on identifying the direction so that he could escape after dealing with Shi Guanyin.
After being carried to a certain place, Jiang Fengyue was not moved again. However, he did not open his eyes, but activated his white-robed divine ears to investigate the surrounding situation. He heard the whispers of many women, and Jiang Fengyue knew that he had entered Shi Guanyin's headquarters.
Jiang Fengyue slightly opened her eyes and observed the surrounding environment. It was a very beautiful house, and Shi Guanyin would naturally not allow herself to live in a bad place.
Qu Wurong was still staring at Yidianhong. Yidianhong soon woke up as well. Qu Wurong immediately looked away, but Yidianhong's eyes began to glare at her.
At this moment, two more girls walked in, one dressed in yellow and the other in crimson robes and embroidered shoes. The two were staring at Chu Liuxiang and occasionally teasing him with a few words.
Jiang Fengyue knew that Chu Liuxiang was awake, so she quickly wrote a message on his hand telling him not to pay attention.
"Check-in!"
"Successfully checked in with the girl in yellow and obtained the item Poppy Flower Antidote."
"Signed in with the girl in crimson dress successfully, and obtained the item Poppy Flower Antidote."
Jiang Fengyue secretly complained that it was one thing for Mr. Gu Long to be lazy and not write the names of the extras, but the system was also lazy and didn't mention the names of the extras.
Jiang Fengyue is immune to all poisons, and Chu Liuxiang was not poisoned. The two antidotes are just enough for Ji Bingyan and Yidianhong.
The two girls stared at Chu Liuxiang for a long time, but he didn't open his eyes. Feeling bored, they left the room.
Only the four of them remained in the room. Jiang Fengyue said in a deep voice, "If we want what's best for them, we shouldn't say a single word to anyone here."
Shi Guanyin was capricious and treated human life as worthless. Her disciples were nothing more than ants for her amusement. Moreover, she was extremely jealous. Just because Qu Wurong was younger and prettier than her, she ruined Qu Wurong's face.
Jiang Fengyue remembered that Shi Guanyin saw Qu Wurong's martial arts skills improving rapidly and became jealous, so she made Qu Wurong lose an arm. Jiang Fengyue naturally couldn't let this happen.
The other three had already woken up and responded to Jiang Fengyue with a soft "hmm".
Jiang Fengyue quickly fed Ji Bingyan and a little red ginseng the antidote, whispering, "Swallow it."
Knowing that Jiang Fengyue would never harm them, the two obediently swallowed the antidote.
After an unknown amount of time, a voice suddenly chuckled and said, "Is my humble abode not satisfactory to you all? Why have you been awake for so long without uttering a word?"
A tall, slender figure in white slowly walked in as the voices spoke.
Her face was also covered by a light veil, but it could not conceal the unparalleled beauty beneath. The countless wonderful experiences in her life made her appear forever aloof and superior.
Jiang Fengyue looked at the person in front of her and thought to herself that this must be Shi Guanyin.
"Check-in!"
"Signing in with Stone Guanyin successfully, you have obtained the martial art 'Evil People Cannot Be Seen'."
Jiang Fengyue exclaimed inwardly, "Shi Guanyin used the move 'Men Cannot Be Seen,' and no man in the world could defeat her head-on. Now that I've learned this move, 'Evil People Cannot Be Seen,' will it strike fear into the hearts of evil people the moment I use it?"
Upon seeing the Stone Guanyin, Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "Because there is nothing else of interest to me here besides the Stone Guanyin, I came here only to meet Madam. Now that my wish has been fulfilled, I am truly fortunate to have such a sight to see."
Shi Guanyin smiled and said, "Good, very good. Now, please follow me, Chu Xiangshuai."
She walked gracefully out the door, as if those words were a command.
Jiang Fengyue laughed and said, "Brother Chu, hurry up. If she forces you, just shout out and we'll come to save you right away."
Chu Liuxiang smiled slightly and followed him out.
Yidianhong and Ji Bingyan have almost recovered their strength and are able to sit up with difficulty.
Yidianhong said, "Why don't we just take action directly?"
Ji Bingyan said, "Since Chu Liuxiang is willing to go with her, he must have his own reasons. Perhaps he wants to find out what other underhanded tricks Shi Guanyin has up her sleeve."
Ji Bingyan added, "We'll wait here. As soon as there's the slightest movement, we'll rush out."
Jiang Fengyue was pacing around the room when she suddenly saw something that looked like a folding firecracker and instinctively reached into her clothes.
Seeing that Jiang Fengyue was still so energetic, Ji Bingyan asked, "Brother Jiang, how come you weren't affected by the drug?"
Jiang Fengyue smiled and said, "I could tell at a glance that those flowers and plants were not good, so I took the antidote beforehand. The one I gave you just now was a pill that can cure diseases and detoxify."
Jiang Fengyue didn't want to reveal her immune-to-poison constitution, so she could only explain it this way.
Ji Bingyan said, "Fortunately, Brother Jiang is here."
Yidianhong stretched her limbs and said, "What a powerful sleeping potion."
Jiang Fengyue sighed, "Once you're hooked on this drug, even the world's number one expert will eventually become a worm."
As he spoke, Chu Liuxiang returned with a smile.
Ji Bingyan said, "So fast?"
No sooner had Ji Bingyan finished speaking than she saw Shi Guanyin following Chu Liuxiang back, and everyone became tense.
Shi Guanyin's complexion beneath the light veil was clearly not good; her already icy demeanor was now even more chilling.
She said coldly, "Jiang Fengyue, you come here!"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Jiang Fengyue's expression changed slightly.
Chu Liuxiang laughed and said, "Xiao Jiang, hurry up. If she forces you, shout out and we'll come to save you right away."
