Supreme Sword Exalt-Chapter 108 - Demoness Sister, I Wish You and Brother Gu Happiness

Chapter 108 - Demoness Sister, I Wish You and Brother Gu Happiness

Han Fu and Mei Yun were hiding beneath a well-concealed cliff face, alert and serious. They were afraid that the three Tier 6 demonic beasts in the distance would discover their traces. The two were in a ragged state, covered in dust and bloodstains, with no trace of their former dignity as martial academy instructors remaining.

Upon hearing the roars of the demonic beasts grow increasingly distant, Han Fu let out a long sigh of relief, and glared fiercely at Mei Yun. “Mei Yun, once we get out, don’t follow me!”

Mei Yun’s appearance was even more wretched than his. He smiled bitterly. “Instructor Han, I didn’t provoke or offend them? Who knows why they went crazy, relentlessly chasing the two of us... You can’t blame me for this...”

Han Fu’s eyes nearly bulged out of his head. “You’re saying it’s not your fault?”

Listen to yourself! What kind of bullshit is that! Have some shame, what’s your own nickname? Don’t you have any self-awareness?!?!

Han Fu seriously warned again, “Anyway, you just stay far away from me! I don’t want to die this early!”

Mei Yun mumbled, not daring to say another word.

Right at that moment, Liu Ying’s seductive voice reached the ears of the two. “Oh? What a coincidence, meeting two instructors here!”

Han Fu’s heart jumped. All his hairs stood on end as he stared dead ahead. “Who’s there?! Stop pretending to be a ghost! Show yourself!”

Mei Yun was momentarily stunned. “Huh?”

This voice... why does it sound familiar?

After another burst of charming laughter, Liu Ying landed before the two. Her posture swayed, her steps moved lightly as she slowly approached them. Her every move and gesture exuded an indescribable myriad of charms, an innate sensuality.

The two exchanged a glance, their faces filled with confusion and gravity. “Liu Ying?”

She’s actually still alive?

They hadn’t seen Liu Ying’s traces and concluded she had long died in the demonic beast riot. They never expected her to appear here.

Liu Ying smiled playfully. She subconsciously licked her lips, her tone exceedingly tender and affectionate. “You two instructors, did you come specifically looking for me? Hehehe, I’m so very touched...”

Mei Yun’s face stiffened, putting on his instructor’s airs again. “What kind of behavior is this?! As a young lady, you should be more proper!”

Han Fu furrowed his brow. “Something’s not right. She’s being strange.”

Suddenly, a mocking voice came from mid-air. “Tsk, tsk, tsk! Of course she’s strange. She’s not even Liu Ying!”

Fatty descended from mid-air. He was all smiles, but inwardly, he was cursing himself bloody.

What’s there to be afraid of! So what if she’s a demoness! I’m no longer the Fatty from before! He’d let her witness firsthand his way of appreciating women.

Han Fu and Mei Yun were already dumbfounded. What are we looking at? Fatty can actually fly through the air?

Upon seeing Fatty, a flash of surprise passed through Liu Ying’s eyes. “Little Fatty, how is your cultivation level so high now?”

Fatty gave a hollow laugh. “Demoness Sister, we meet again!”

A golden light slowly lit him as he rolled up his sleeves and slowly approached Liu Ying. “Tsk, tsk, last time I was bullied quite badly by you. Tell me, how should this debt be settled?”

The surprise on Liu Ying’s face vanished in a flash, reverting to that charm that could captivate all living beings. Inadvertently, she glanced at Fatty again. “Oh? Do you want to punish me?”

That stunningly beautiful face—pure yet bewitching—showed not the slightest trace of nervousness.

Huh? Fatty felt something wasn’t right. Although Liu Ying was obviously at the Acupoint Unsealing realm, his instincts told him that he was unlikely to win.

His courage deflated, and he immediately became apprehensive. “Forget it. I respect women, so I won’t argue with you.”

Liu Ying laughed so hard, trembling all over. “Little Fatty, you are truly amusing! Ah, why is it only you who came today? What about Little Brother Gu Han? You have no idea how much I miss him... I miss him so very much...”

Her smile turned into sorrow, her seductiveness transformed into purity, and tears fell one after another.

Fatty inwardly gasped at her prowess. “My Brother Gu...”

He didn’t dare to look at Liu Ying anymore. Halfway through his sentence, his eyes rolled, and he put on a sincere face. “Demoness Sister, if you miss Brother Gu, you can go see him! You have no idea, Brother Gu actually misses you too! Tsk, tsk, so much he’s practically going crazy!”

Liu Ying instantly shifted from sorrow to joy. “Really? He misses me too?”

Her voice already carried a trace of tremor. Anyone who didn’t know the inside story would surely take her for a lovesick woman pining for her sweetheart.

Fatty declared with conviction, “Absolutely! Ever since parting last time, Brother Gu thinks of you day and night, his only wish to see you once more.”

The demoness’ face flushed red. “Where is he?”

Fatty didn’t even hesitate, selling out Gu Han cleanly and decisively. “Great Qi, the imperial capital.”

Liu Ying wiped her tears, biting her lips lightly. “I’m going to find him. Then, I’ll stay with him for life, never to part again.”

Fatty wore a face full of sincerity. “Sister, I think you and my Brother Gu are truly a match made in heaven.”

Liu Ying was overjoyed. “Is that so?”

Without sparing the others another glance, she set off toward the imperial capital, her gaze firm.

Fatty quickly waved. “Demoness Sister, I wish you and Brother Gu happiness!”

The demoness paused, turning around with a radiant smile. “Little Fatty, seeing as your mouth is still rather sweet, I won’t hold it against you this time.”

As Fatty watched Liu Ying leave, he secretly breathed in relief. After all, not only the demoness had a complex and variable personality, her allegiance was unclear. She always gave him a headache. He bet she had some trump cards up her sleeve. Otherwise, how could she remain so calm when facing a Half-Step Transcendent Realm expert?

Now, she was no longer his problem, but Gu Han’s.

Fatty sighed with emotion. “Brother Gu, I can only help you this far. What comes next is up to you.”

He felt not the slightest bit of remorse for setting Gu Han up. Turning around, he saw that Han Fu and Mei Yun had completely fallen into a stupor.

Fatty shook his head. “Ah, well! We knew each other after all. Let me escort you out—wait.”

Halfway through his sentence, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Abandoning his former wariness towards Mei Yun, he actually walked over and patted The Jinx on the shoulder. “Instructor Mei, are you interested in taking a trip to the Central Continent with me?”

Mei Yun instinctively replied, “No, I’m not interested.”

Fatty shook his head repeatedly. “Tsk, tsk. That’s not up to you.”

He grabbed the two and instantly soared into the air.

“Old Tian Ji, I’m coming back! And I’ve brought you a big gift along the way!” he said, full of excitement and pride.

***

Gu Han returned to Murong Chuan, completely unaware that Fatty had gotten the better of him.

Upon hearing that Fatty had left, Murong Chuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. “He’s gone?”

That’s great news!

On top of his mysterious origins and formidable strength, Fatty had an arrogant nature. If he remained, he would be a wild card not just for Great Qi, but for the entire Northern Domain and Eastern Wasteland.

Then, seemingly recalling something, Murong Chuan took out a storage ring and handed it to Gu Han. “By the way, Chen Ping practically ran all over the Ten Nations, offering several times the price, but he only managed to find two stalks. I’m afraid their efficacy is even worse than Fallen Nether Fruit. The ten million essence crystals are almost gone.”

Gu Han received it, showing not the slightest hint of heartache. “Thank you for your trouble, Senior.”

Two stalks actually exceeded his expectations. In fact, even if he could only afford one stalk with ten million essence crystals, he still thought it was worth it.

Murong Chuan secretly sighed. “Don’t worry. With the young lady’s orders, the Murong family will spare no effort to help you search for this kind of spirit item. If we can find it, we’ll send it to you at the first opportunity.”

Gu Han didn’t say anything. Regardless of the help he received, such spirit items were too rare. Even if he had infinite essence crystals, finding them would take who knows how long.

Still, Ah Sha definitely couldn’t hold on for too long relying on the Fallen Nether Fruit and these two spirit herbs. The safest method was to head to Ruyi Tower in Yue Mountain City.

I must obtain the Ghost Physician’s pill at all cost!

Thinking of this, he already had the intention to leave. “Senior, shortly, Ah Sha and I will be leaving Great Qi.”

Murong Chuan frowned. “Leaving so soon?”

He knew Gu Han definitely wouldn’t stay long, but he didn’t expect him to leave at this moment.

Gu Han thought for a moment. “I plan to go take a look at Fengwu Court.”

He had made up his mind. Not even Murong Yuan could obtain the pill from the Ruyi Tower Master’s hands. A nobody like Gu Han probably wouldn’t even get to see that tower master’s face if he went. Even if Gu Han managed to meet him, the price of that pill would be enormous, perhaps even calling for a Heaven-tier technique.

Above all, Gu Han had no idea what kind of person the Ruyi Tower Master was. He could be a greedy, insatiable person like Tian Heng. In that case, with Gu Han’s cultivation level, going there rashly with such a heavy treasure would be courting death.

Therefore, the best approach was to acquire a background that would make others think twice. Becoming the chief disciple of Fengwu Court—an organization on par with the Yuqing Sect—would be an excellent choice. Even if others had crooked ideas, they’d have to weigh the consequences beforehand.

Who would have thought that Murong Chuan, who was always composed, lost his composure upon hearing these words. “Fengwu Court?! You want to go to Fengwu Court?!”

Gu Han looked puzzled. “Yes. Is there a problem?”

Murong Chuan looked baffled. “How do you know about Fengwu Court? I don’t think I ever mentioned it to you, did I?”

He remembered the powers in the Northern Domain of the Eastern Wasteland distinctly. Besides the Yuqing Sect and the Murong family, he hadn’t said a word about the others.

“I ran into someone from there,” said Gu Han.

Murong Chuan raised an eyebrow. “Ran into them? That’s a coincidence. Do you know about their situation?”

Gu Han was even more puzzled. “I do. He already explained it to me clearly.”

Murong Chuan was in disbelief. “You still want to go even knowing that?”

Gu Han felt somewhat drawn to it. “Yes! Senior, I think I’m quite suited for that place. Moreover, Fengwu Court is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. It would be greatly beneficial for my cultivation.”

Murong Chuan’s mind was racing. After thinking about it, he still decided to persuade Gu Han some more. “Actually, Fengwu Court—huh?”

Halfway through his sentence, his expression changed. “The little girl is awake!”
