My Five Bigshot Seniors: I am The Most Coddled Junior!-Chapter 303 - 171: The Demon Path Army Arrives [Third Update]

Chapter 303: Chapter 171: The Demon Path Army Arrives [Third Update]

After Jun Yutian and the others left, only Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu were left here. Gu Qingqing walked out from behind Jun Wu and stuck out her tongue as she glanced at Wen Guiyun’s back.

"You," Jun Wu tapped Gu Qingqing’s forehead and said with a doting smile, "If Master catches you, they won’t show me a good face. I just saw Senior Brother and the others looking like they wanted to kill me."

"It’s not that exaggerated; Master and the others wouldn’t do that." Gu Qingqing wrinkled her nose, displeased with Jun Wu’s statement.

"For you, they certainly wouldn’t, but for me, it’s not certain. They’ve long been discontented that I took you away from them." Jun Wu shrugged and said with a smile.

"You took away their most beloved disciple and junior sister, why not let them vent a bit." Gu Qingqing expressed her dissatisfaction with Jun Wu’s behavior of taking advantage and acting innocent.

"How would I dare," Jun Wu raised his hands in an innocent gesture, "Whatever they want to do, I’ll accompany it. Anyway, you are mine now; they can just vent their anger."

"Who’s yours?" Gu Qingqing turned her head, her cheeks slightly red, "Look at how dirty you are; you’d better go change your clothes. Also, your courtyard can’t be lived in anymore; you’ll have to be reassigned a place to stay."

Seeing that Gu Qingqing was shy, Jun Wu didn’t expose her; instead, he followed up on her words, "I’ll head to my father’s courtyard first; you should go find Master Wen and the others. I’ll come find you after I’m ready."

Lowering his head to look at his clothes, Jun Wu uneasily furrowed his brows.

"Alright, you should go quickly." Gu Qingqing turned around and nodded.

The two left the courtyard, now reduced to ruins, and walked together to where Wen Guiyun and the others lived.

To facilitate discussions, the courtyards of Wen Guiyun, Jun Yutian, and Bai Guanlin were adjacent. Wen Guiyun’s courtyard was in the middle, with Jun Yutian’s on the left and Bai Guanlin’s on the right.

Jun Wu dropped Gu Qingqing off at the entrance to Wen Guiyun’s courtyard. After Gu Qingqing went inside, he turned and walked toward Jun Yutian’s courtyard.

Upon entering, Jun Yutian was waiting at his room’s door for Jun Wu. Seeing him, he hurriedly said, "The water is ready for you in the guest room, go wash up. You should have clothes there too, then you can temporarily stay in the guest room."

"Thank you, Father." Jun Wu thanked Jun Yutian and then turned towards the guest room.

Jun Yutian watched Jun Wu’s slightly taller figure, sighed sentimentally, and returned to his room. He hadn’t yet shared the good news with his wife that their son had become the youngest Half-step Immortal Rank in the Sub-immortal Realm, all thanks to his wife, after all, Jun Wu was born of her.

On the other side, after arriving at Wen Guiyun’s courtyard, Gu Qingqing found only Wen Guiyun present. She hesitated in her steps, while Wen Guiyun had already turned around.

"What, you’ve got Jun Wu now and don’t want your master? Hesitating to come to me?" Wen Guiyun noticed Gu Qingqing’s hesitation, raised an eyebrow, and said a bit unhappily. He hadn’t forgotten just seeing Gu Qingqing embracing Jun Wu; hearing and seeing were two different things, his precious cabbage had been nuzzled by a pig, and the heartache of this old father was indescribable!

"Master, you wrong me; even if I don’t want anyone, I can’t not want you." Hearing Wen Guiyun’s words, Gu Qingqing immediately stopped hesitating, hurried to his side, and tugged at his sleeve while acting cute.

"Really? Not fooling me?" Wen Guiyun eyed Gu Qingqing, doubtingly asking.

"Of course, when have I ever fooled you?" Gu Qingqing said with a serious face.

Wen Guiyun was always helpless against Gu Qingqing. Like now, Gu Qingqing had just spoken a couple of sweet words, and even though he knew Jun Wu was certainly more important in her heart, his newly risen anger instantly cooled down, easily swayed by Gu Qingqing’s antics.

"Alright, this time you’re forgiven," Wen Guiyun snorted coldly, dotingly said.

"I knew Master is the best." Gu Qingqing, hearing this, immediately showed a happy smile, her eyes curved into a crescent moon.

Infected by her smile, Wen Guiyun’s lips also slightly curled up.

Gu Qingqing accompanied Wen Guiyun in a game of chess, and when Si Lin and the others arrived, the two were happily chatting in low voices.

Si Lin and the others exchanged a glance upon seeing Wen Guiyun, surprised that Gu Qingqing had managed to appease Wen Guiyun so quickly, but then remembering Wen Guiyun’s usual doting on Gu Qingqing, it seemed quite normal.

The seven master and disciples chatted together for a while before dispersing.

After Gu Qingqing came out of Wen Guiyun’s courtyard, she happened to see Jun Wu waiting at the entrance. Her eyes immediately lit up, and she picked up her gown to trot over to Jun Wu.

"Slow down, I won’t run away." Seeing Gu Qingqing stumble slightly, Jun Wu quickly stepped forward to support her arm, reminding her.

Gu Qingqing gave him a teasing glance and then stood beside him.

"Geng Geng, would you like to go out with me for a while?" Jun Wu had long planned to go out with Gu Qingqing and directly asked.

"Where to?" Gu Qingqing asked curiously.

"Just wandering around the streets." Jun Wu actually had no specific place in mind, just wanting to be with Gu Qingqing, it didn’t matter where.

"Alright, then let’s go." Gu Qingqing nodded and then pulled Jun Wu to walk outside.

The streets of Yuqiu Pass have been relatively quiet lately, as everyone knows about the impending battle with Cat Dao, and Yuqiu Pass being a fortress, the war will surely occur here. Therefore, most of the citizens and those with lower strength have already evacuated Yuqiu Pass, leaving behind only a few.

Since the last Sub-immortal Realm competition, Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu had gained some fame. Especially since those selected were the elite of various sects, who had all participated in the Sub-immortal Realm competition and seen Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu; many greeted them along the way.

"I hope the war ends soon, so everyone can return to normal life." Gu Qingqing said thoughtfully as she watched the hurried passersby on the street.

"I’m sure it will," Jun Wu comforted her, holding her hand, "We have prepared so thoroughly to deal with those people from the Demon Path, there should be no problem."

Gu Qingqing thought so too. Although the Demon Path had been preparing for a long time, they were not without preparations themselves and were sure to quickly solve the issue with those from the Demon Path.

As the two walked and chatted, they arrived at the lakeside. At this time of year, the lotus flowers in the lake had withered, leaving only remnants in the water. The water was very clear, and fish could be seen swimming inside.

"Geng Geng, I plan to propose to Master Wen after the war ends, to first fix our marriage," Jun Wu suddenly said as he looked at Gu Qingqing.

Gu Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then her cheeks flushed, "Why are you telling me this, my master might not even agree."

In Gu Qingqing’s heart, Wen Guiyun was both her master and father, so although she was also willing to get married, she needed Wen Guiyun’s approval. Otherwise, even if she was happy inside, she would not marry Jun Wu.

Jun Wu understood this too, so he initially asked his father to propose to Wen Guiyun. Although Wen Guiyun didn’t agree, he didn’t completely refuse either. So Jun Wu planned to propose several more times after the war, hoping that Wen Guiyun would see his sincerity and then agree.

"I will ask Master Wen for his approval," Jun Wu looked at Gu Qingqing with deep and tender eyes, "Geng Geng, you can only be my wife, and I will only marry you!"

From the moment he realized he liked Gu Qingqing, in Jun Wu’s heart, Gu Qingqing was his only possibility for a wife. He never considered anyone else, and after spending time together, he was even more determined about this.

Gu Qingqing looked up, meeting Jun Wu’s gaze, and felt herself being drawn into the net of love Jun Wu wove, unable to escape, not that she wanted to.

At this moment, everything around them seemed to disappear, and they saw only each other. As their heads leaned closer, when Jun Wu lowered his head, Gu Qingqing closed her eyes. Next, a cold touch came to her lips — she knew it was Jun Wu’s lips.

Their lips met, both were very excited. Jun Wu embraced Gu Qingqing tightly, as if he wanted to meld her into his body. His kiss differed from his previous gentle ones, becoming stormy, catching Gu Qingqing off guard for a moment.

After the kiss ended, Gu Qingqing nestled in Jun Wu’s arms to catch her breath, her cheeks slightly red, her eyes misty, looking very enticing.

She felt that one day she might die from these kisses; Jun Wu’s influence on her was too great, and she was completely led by him, forgetting everything.

After a while, Jun Wu nuzzled his head into Gu Qingqing’s shoulder, inhaling her scent. His slightly hoarse voice sounded beside her ear, "Geng Geng, I really want to marry you home as soon as possible."

At this moment, Jun Wu’s voice was very sensual. His warm breath fell on Gu Qingqing’s ear, causing her heart to contract and her body to tingle, leaving her snuggled silently in Jun Wu’s embrace, not knowing what to say since the marriage had yet to be approved by Wen Guiyun.

...

The Demon Path came quickly to avoid giving the Righteous Path a chance to prepare. On the second day after Jun Wu ascended to Half-step Immortal Rank, figures from the four sects of the Demon Path appeared outside Yuqiu Pass, led by the heads of the four sects.

After receiving the news, Wen Guiyun, Bai Guanlin, and Jun Yutian also arrived at the wall of Yuqiu Pass, looking down at the Demon Path’s forces.

"Gong Tianhai, what are you planning by bringing people outside Yuqiu Pass?" Although both sides knew well that the Demon Path intended to invade the Righteous Path’s territory, Wen Guiyun still asked loudly.

"Wen Guiyun, you should know our purpose. This time our Demon Path is determined to level your Righteous Path’s territory and reclaim the humiliations we’ve suffered over the years!" Gong Tianhai said arrogantly while looking at Wen Guiyun.

"The Righteous and Demonic Paths have been at peace for many years, yet you insist on starting a war. Do you really think the people of the Righteous Path are easy targets? If you want to flatten us, you’d better be sure you have what it takes!" Wen Guiyun sneered at Gong Tianhai’s words, showing his disdain clearly.

Seeing Wen Guiyun like this, Gong Tianhai’s expression instantly turned grim. Among the sects of the Righteous Path, the Lingxi Sacred Land and its Sect Leader, Wen Guiyun, were whom he hated the most!

"Let’s see if we can achieve that, then." He snorted coldly, left a harsh remark, then returned to the Demon Path’s ranks.

"We shall see." Wen Guiyun raised an eyebrow, looked at Gong Tianhai, and said.

The Demon Path set up camp ten miles outside Yuqiu Pass. Although the camp was temporary, to prevent an ambush from the Righteous Path, they took great care, drawing many arrays.

...

In Yuqiu Pass, Wen Guiyun and the others gathered in the council hall, discussing the Demon Path’s move.

Although everyone previously guessed that the Demon Path would wage war on the Righteous Path, aside from destroying the Qixia Sect, there had been no movements from the Demon Path. Everyone held onto a sliver of hope that they wouldn’t attack. If not for Wen Guiyun pointing it out, the Sect Leaders might not have agreed. Now, seeing the Demon Path’s army approaching, they were immediately convinced and realized how right they were to listen to Wen Guiyun’s advice at that time.

"As everyone has seen, the demon army has arrived. They have many people, and so do we. Even if it’s a hard clash, we shouldn’t be afraid. However, we must prevent any ambushes from the Demon Path. Please return and instruct your disciples to stay vigilant, ensuring they aren’t caught off guard by the Cat Dao before the grand battle begins." Wen Guiyun said, sweeping his gaze over the Sect Leaders present.

"Rest assured, Master Wen, we will ensure our disciples are well-restrained." Master Chen first echoed.

"Indeed, rest assured, Master Wen, we won’t cause any trouble."

"We will definitely restrain our disciples."

"..."

After everyone made their assurances, Wen Guiyun spoke again, "According to my guess, the Demon Path won’t start a large-scale war right away, so they might send a small team to harass us and provoke a response. Gong Tianhai from the Demon Path is always very cunning, so we should also divide our disciples into small teams, making it more convenient for us to respond."

Jun Yutian and Bai Guanlin had no objections to Wen Guiyun’s words, and seeing this, neither did the other Sect Leaders. Thus, it was decided, and they proceeded to discuss how to allocate the teams.
