Chapter 258 Rain
"A mission from your sect? What are you here for?"
Gu Qianbei asked curiously.
"Naturally, we've come here for the battle at the Forbidden City."
How could anyone not look forward to the battle between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue?
"Just watching the final battle?"
"Of course, that's not all. There's another very interesting thing that happened during this final battle."
Wanwan smiled mysteriously, but Gu Qianbei frowned.
"You haven't gotten involved in some weird thing, have you?"
Wanwan glanced at Gu Qianbei in surprise and laughed, "You're still so perceptive."
Yes, this matter is indeed somewhat strange.
But I won't get involved.
To be more precise, I came here to watch the excitement.
And this exciting outcome will influence the choices my sect makes.
"I see. It's good that you don't get involved."
Gu Qianbei laughed.
"You seem to know what it is."
"I can guess about 70-80% of it."
"Hmm? I'm curious now. Tell me, what did you guess?"
Wanwan stared quietly at Gu Qianbei, as if trying to read something from his face.
Gu Qianbei smiled faintly and uttered four words.
"The Prince of Pingnan's Residence".
Wanwan's pupils contracted.
"You're really something. You even know about this kind of information."
I'm getting more and more curious about who you really are.
Not only did his martial arts skills improve rapidly, but his intelligence was also frighteningly accurate.
"You wouldn't happen to be the number one secret agent of the Dragon Guard Manor, would you?"
"Of course not. Even the Iron-Blooded Marquis can't afford to hire me."
"I guessed so. But now that you know about this, aren't you planning to do anything about it?"
Wanwan asked curiously.
"I have no interest in getting involved in this kind of thing."
If an emperor cannot solve this problem himself, then he is not fit to be an emperor.
"If the emperor can solve this problem himself, why should I get involved?"
"That...you make a lot of sense."
But why does it sound a little strange?
"Let it be strange. Life is short, and I have no interest in getting involved in these complicated things."
"Then why are you teaching Princess Yunluo martial arts? That would make people think you're the emperor's person."
"I didn't want to, but he just gave me too much."
Just then, I was short of Tian Shan snow lotus for brewing wine, and he sent it to me.
How could I possibly refuse such a good deal?
Gu Qianbei spread his hands, looking like he had no choice.
"New wine brewed again? What's the deal this time?"
Wanwan's eyes lit up, her face full of curiosity.
Ever since she drank Gu Qianbei's wine, she has become addicted to the feeling of drinking.
There are only two kinds of wine in this world: wine brewed by Gu Qianbei and wine not brewed by Gu Qianbei.
The difference was simply too great.
"Bai Mai Hui Yuan Jiu is a wine that can treat internal injuries."
Look at all these internal injuries I've sustained, I need to find a way to heal them quickly.
Being injured is no fun.
"Then we need to get it brewed quickly. How is it? Is there anything I can help you with?"
"It's been resolved; time will tell."
"Are you alright now?"
"It's nothing. What's wrong? You sound like something's wrong."
"Now that you're alright, come with me for a walk. It's been a long time since I've been to the capital, so it's a good opportunity to go out and explore."
There should be a night market tonight, right?
Wanwan's face was full of anticipation and excitement.
Gu Qianbei naturally wouldn't refuse.
Yes, it is.
"Let's go then!"
Wanwan pulled Gu Qianbei away, and Gu Qianbei did not refuse.
The two then left the No. 1 Manor and headed towards the night market.
The night markets in Beijing are bustling with people and extremely lively.
A wide variety of snacks are constantly emerging.
"I want to eat that! And that too!"
Wanwan quickly bought a lot of things and ate them with great satisfaction.
Gu Qianbei accepted all offers of wine.
Soon, the two of them finished eating and sat on the roof of a tall building, watching the people coming and going below.
"This was such a satisfying meal. I haven't felt this relaxed in ages."
Wanwan swung her little feet, propped her hands on the eaves where she was sitting, and looked completely content.
"What's wrong? Are you having a hard time at the Yin Gui Sect?"
Gu Qianbei joked.
"Of course! You have no idea. My master is very strict with me."
They demanded that I cultivate myself diligently all day long.
"If I hadn't cultivated to the eighteenth level of the Heavenly Demon Technique, she definitely wouldn't have allowed me to come out."
Wanwan looked helpless.
"A heavy responsibility rests on my shoulders; those who are capable are often burdened with more responsibilities."
Gu Qianbei laughed.
"Keep laughing! You have no sympathy. She's just confiding in you."
Wanwan stuck out her tongue, put her hands on her hips, and looked dissatisfied.
"Have you considered leaving the Yin Gui Sect?"
"Leave? Where can I leave?"
Although the Yin Gui Sect has various problems, my master raised me and is counting on me to take over the important task of the Yin Gui Sect. How can I leave?
But have you ever considered coming back to the Yin Gui Sect with me?
"From now on, I'll be the sect leader, and you'll be the sect leader's son-in-law, how about that?"
Wanwan said jokingly, and even lifted Gu Qianbei's chin.
Gu Qianbei was immediately at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"Then forget it, I'm not used to being supported by a woman."
Besides, I'm so rich.
"It's okay, I don't mind."
Gu Qianbei said irritably, "You really do want everything."
"Can't you even think about it?"
"sure."
The two looked at each other and smiled, both delighted.
Suddenly, water droplets began to fall from the sky, dripping and pattering.
It's raining.
The once bustling night market quickly emptied out of its crowds.
Everyone ran to find shelter from the rain.
"This rain came so suddenly."
Wanwan was startled and quickly tried to get up to avoid the rain.
But then Gu Qianbei waved his right hand, and the Golden Light Spell condensed into a huge golden umbrella, completely obscuring the sky above the two of them.
"I almost forgot you have such useful martial arts skills."
"Tsk tsk, your skills are getting more and more refined."
Wanwan praised.
"A good martial art is one that can be used in daily life."
"Let's go, we should go back."
"it is good."
The two immediately used their lightness skills to head towards the number one manor in the world.
The rain is getting heavier.
As the two were walking along the road, they suddenly sensed someone riding a fast horse away ahead.
"They are the Embroidered Uniform Guards."
Gu Qianbei narrowed his eyes and saw several figures disappearing into the rain.
It turned out to be Jiang Asheng and his three companions, whom he had just met yesterday.
"What? You know him?"
Wanwan immediately noticed that Gu Qianbei's reaction was a bit off and couldn't help but ask.
"It's someone I knew before."
Judging from their hurried manner, they must have received some big job.
"Come on, let's follow them and see what's going on."
Gu Qianbei laughed.
"Sure. Anyway, it's still early, and it'll be boring going back."
Wanwan immediately became interested upon hearing this.
This is the kind of thing she likes the most.
"Then let's go."
Gu Qianbei immediately reduced the brightness of the golden light and attached it to himself and Wanwan.
In this way, even when walking through the rain, not a drop of rain will get on your body.
Seeing that Gu Qianbei had this trick up his sleeve, Wanwan's eyes lit up again.
"You really have a lot of tricks up your sleeve."
