Gu Long's World: Starting with the Legend of Chu Liuxiang

Jiang Fengyue followed Shi Guanyin to a room where there was a bed and Shi Guanyin was sitting on it.

Shi Guanyin said softly, "Young Master Jiang, why don't you come over here quickly?"

Jiang Fengyue didn't move, and said coldly, "Doesn't Madam think she's a bit too old?"

Shi Guanyin was stunned. She had never imagined that anyone would dare to say such a thing to her. She exclaimed, "What...did you say?"

Jiang Fengyue said, "I'm telling you, you're too old. No matter how you try to cover it up, you already have some wrinkles on your face. No matter how jealous you are of young and beautiful girls, no matter how much you try to ruin their appearance, you can't change the fact that you've grown old."

Stone Guanyin flew into a rage and said, "Do you know what you're saying?"

Jiang Fengyue said, "I know."

Jiang Fengyue looked alert, ready to act at any moment.

Shi Guanyin said in a trembling voice, "Do you know what the consequences are for those who refuse me?"

Jiang Fengyue thought of Shi Tuo and said, "I know you'll leave him exposed to the scorching sun, which will ruin his face and blind him."

Jiang Fengyue added, "But I'm not afraid. Even if it means my death, I will not submit to someone like you."

Besides, Jiang Fengyue won't die; he's ready to make a move at any time.

Stone Guanyin asked, "How did you know?"

Jiang Fengyue said coldly, "Not only do I know, but I also know that he is the senior brother of the Huashan Sword Sect and the leader of the Seven Swords of Huashan, Huangfu Gao. In the past, you killed the other six members of the Seven Swords of Huashan in order to take revenge, but you spared Huangfu Gao because you coveted his male beauty."

Shi Guanyin was both ashamed and angry, and said, "Do you think you can get out of here alive after saying such things?"

Jiang Fengyue smiled and said, "Please begin, Madam."

Shi Guanyin coldly said, "Jiang Fengyue, well done; Chu Liuxiang, well done. I won't let you die too quickly. As long as you stay here, you'll eventually figure things out."

Shi Guanyin shouted again, "Get out!"

After hesitating for a long time, Jiang Fengyue decided not to take action and left Shi Guanyin's boudoir.

Chu Liuxiang and the others were already waiting outside. When Jiang Fengyue came out, Yidianhong said, "So fast!"

Chu Liuxiang said, "Could it be that Stone Guanyin has already...?"

Jiang Fengyue said, "She's not dead yet, and the play hasn't reached its final act. How can we let the famous actress leave prematurely?"

Ji Bingyan asked, "Should we continue waiting here?"

Jiang Fengyue asked, "Have you fully recovered?"

Yidianhong and Ji Bingyan nodded simultaneously and said, "Yes."

Jiang Fengyue smiled and said, "Shi Guanyin won't be coming out again anytime soon. Let's take this opportunity to leave this place."

The group walked into a long corridor, which was quiet and without a sound.

Jiang Fengyue whispered, "Brother Chu and I both remember the way in. You two follow us closely."

Suddenly, Yidianhong said, "I want to find someone."

Ji Bingyan frowned and asked, "Who?"

Jiang Fengyue smiled and said, "It must be Miss Qu."

Ji Bingyan asked, "Do you think she'll come with us?"

Yidianhong sighed, "I'm afraid that won't happen."

Chu Liuxiang asked, "Then why go to her?"

Yidianhong said, "I think she at least won't stop us..."

Jiang Fengyue's smile deepened: "The person you're looking for has been standing behind you for a long time."

Qu Wurong was indeed behind them. She said coldly, "You do have some skill, being able to cure that drug, but why do you think I won't stop you?"

Yidianhong asked in surprise, "Did you hear what I said?"

Qu Wurong said, "Hmph!"

Yidianhong asked, "Are you leaving or not?"

Qu Wurong sneered, "Are you asking me to lead the way?"

After laughing wildly for a while, Yidianhong said, "Brother Jiang, you all go quickly, I'll stay here."

Chu Liuxiang said, "Why...why are you doing this?"

Jiang Fengyue said, "How could we possibly leave you here?"

Yidianhong said calmly, "I have never thought that life is precious. I am always ready to die."

A touch of red in her eyes was cold, as if she were saying to Qu Wurong, "I would never lie to you to save my own life. If you think that way, you not only look down on me, but also on yourself."

Qu Wurong's veil was soaked with tears.

Even a woman colder than ice can shed tears.

Qu Wurong said, "You can leave, I won't stop you."

Jiang Fengyue said, "It's too late for us to leave now."

Qu Wurong asked, "Why?"

Chu Liuxiang sighed, "Given Brother Hong's temperament, if he says he won't leave, he definitely won't leave. If he doesn't leave, would the three of us abandon him and go?"

Qu Wurong asked, "What...what else does he want?"

Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, "He has already made his intentions clear. If you believe him, come with us. Once he knows you no longer doubt him, he will naturally leave."

Qu Wurong's voice trembled as she said, "I...can't leave."

Jiang Fengyue asked, "What's there to remember here by?"

Qu Wurong did not answer; she was speechless.

Suddenly, a loud voice shouted, "None of you are leaving!"

A girl in purple appeared at the end of the corridor, seemingly out of nowhere.

Qu Wurong exclaimed, "Fourth Sister..."

The girl in purple sneered, "Who's your fourth sister? You shameless ugly girl, you've lost your mind at the sight of a man! Have you forgotten how good your master has been to you?"

Qu Wurong said calmly, "But Master is not here right now."

The girl in purple retorted angrily, "So what if Master isn't here? With so many of us, we can't handle a few of you?"

She gently pressed a button on the piano on the wall, and a deafening ringing sound immediately rang out.

Jiang Fengyue knew that upon hearing this bell, all of Shi Guanyin's disciples would mobilize, but he remained calm because he knew that the thrush had already made its move, and soon there would be no one left alive among Shi Guanyin's disciples.

Suddenly, Yidianhong said to Qu Wurong, "It's my fault that you're in trouble."

After a long pause, Qu Wurong coldly said, "If you don't cherish your own life, do you think I do?"

Yidianhong said, "Very good."

Neither of them spoke again; both had entrusted their lives to the other.

Jiang Fengyue sighed, "They won't be coming."

Chu Liuxiang asked, "Them... you mean the disciples of Shi Guanyin? Why do you say that?"

Jiang Fengyue continued to activate his white-robed divine hearing, saying, "It's because I heard the sound of people killing each other."

Soon, the girl in purple at the end of the corridor also collapsed. When everyone approached, they found that she was dead.

Turning into another long corridor, there were even more corpses everywhere, dozens in total.

Upon seeing so many corpses, all of whom were her former companions, Qu Wurong's legs went weak and she fainted.

Chu Liuxiang soon discovered that each of them had a bright green slip of paper in their hand.

It says:

Chu Xiangshuai accepted it, and presented a thrush as a gift.

Chu Liuxiang murmured, "The thrush..."

……

The group of five had left that bloody place and arrived at the flower field full of poppies and hemp.

As they were about to leave the sea of ​​flowers, Jiang Fengyue was picking up some withered grass everywhere.

Chu Liuxiang asked, "Little Jiang, what are you doing?"

Jiang Fengyue used the tinder she had taken from Shi Guanyin to light the dry grass. The fire first burned a small patch, and then spread across the sea of ​​flowers.

Jiang Fengyue said, "Let's go!"

The group quickened their pace and were soon far away from the sea of ​​flowers.

Ji Bingyan said, "Why are you burning these things? Do you think this will anger Stone Guanyin?"

Jiang Fengyue said coldly, "The harm caused by these flowers and plants is beyond human imagination. If some of them were to accidentally spread to the Central Plains, who knows how many heroes would be killed."

Jiang Fengyue knew that there was no one around for miles, and all of Shi Guanyin's disciples had died, so the poisonous gas from burning these flowers and plants would not affect anyone.

The group continued walking, with Qu Wurong at the very front.

Qu Wurong was numb. All her companions were dead, but she was still alive. She was confused and felt that she should have died here too.

Jiang Fengyue took out the Rejuvenating Water from the system space and poured it into Qu Wurong's mouth. Qu Wurong just swallowed it blankly.

Yidianhong exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Jiang, what's going on?"

Jiang Fengyue said, "This is a medicine to stabilize the mind; it has some effect on people who have experienced significant stress."

Jiang Fengyue had no choice but to explain it this way.

Just then, a flash of light appeared and slashed down at Qu Wurong.

Qu Wurong completely ignored him, making no attempt to avoid or dodge him.

The little red figure behind her was shocked and rushed forward to pull her back.

The strike was too fast; it was too late to pull the person back.

Yidianhong pulled Qu Wurong to the ground and then rushed over to protect her with her body, before turning her hand to meet the incoming blade.

Just as Yidianhong's hand was about to be cut off, a sword blocked their way and took the blow.

Such a fast sword.

If there is anything in the world that can withstand this blow at this very moment, it is only one sword.

Jiang Fengyue's sword.

Jiang Fengyue said, "Brother Hong, I have already repaid your kindness in lending me the sword today!"

Hearing Jiang Fengyue's voice, the person in the shadows exclaimed, "Little Jiang?"

Chu Liuxiang exclaimed in surprise, "Old Hu!"

Jiang Fengyue lit a fire, and the person in the firelight was naturally Hu Tiehua. In addition, there were three other people: Princess Pipa, Shi Tuo, and Liu Yanfei.

The group quickly emerged from the valley, sharing their experiences. Hu Tiehua had successfully retrieved the "Star of Bliss," then encountered Princess Pipa, and rescued Huangfu Gao and Liu Yanfei on their way to find Chu Liuxiang. Hu Tiehua encouraged them to seek revenge on Shi Guanyin, which is why they came here together.

Upon hearing about Jiang Fengyue and the others' ordeal, Hu Tiehua exclaimed, "What a vicious thrush!"

Princess Pipa said, "Why didn't he kill Stone Guanyin as well?"

Jiang Fengyue smiled and said, "Perhaps it's because the Stone Guanyin just happened to be away, or perhaps there's an unusual relationship between the thrush and the Stone Guanyin."

Ji Bingyan said, "According to Miss Qu, Shi Guanyin isn't always there; recently, she's been away quite often."

Princess Pipa asked, "Where does she usually go?"

Jiang Fengyue said, "Nobody knows, she might even be living at your house."

Jiang Fengyue was telling the truth.

Princess Pipa jumped up in fright and exclaimed, "Really?"
