Chapter 540 - Meeting The Legendary Princess Yun
A month later, they arrived at the Capital of Beiqi Nation.
Gu Nansheng lifted the curtain of her carriage and looked at the capital that she hasn’t seen for half a year. The palace guards were opening a way for her on the streets as usual. Although she was obviously familiar with the commoners who were watching in a crowd, she still felt a sense of unfamiliarity.
She looked at Wu Yuan who was leading the way in front. Along the way, she realised that he was a serious and quiet man. If one didn’t ask him anything, he wouldn’t even open his mouth and speak a single word. He was extremely silent along the way, like a mute. Besides, he was wearing a poker face the whole time.
“Feng Tianlan, we are almost at the palace gates.” Gu Nansheng let down the curtains on her carriage and looked at Feng Tianlan who was also a person with few words. “I will only stay for half a month. Do you have any idea on how to kill that despicable ‘Yun’?”
Feng Tianlan replied with a question. “Did you send someone to kill her before?”
“I did, but I failed. She had a Spiritual Emperor around her protecting her. I can’t assassinate her.”
Feng Tianlan felt quite strange. “There isn’t much Spiritual Emperors in the Guiyuan Continent. Pang Tai is one of them, the lord of the Demon Palace was the other. There is also the mayor of the Evanesce City. Who else is a Spiritual Emperor?”
“You.” Gu Nansheng looked at Feng Tianlan who was frowning and laughed. “Don’t think that I am unable to guess your true spiritual force even though you have concealed them. Great-grandmaster, you had become a Spiritual Emperor since long ago right?”
Feng Tianlan didn’t deny. “You want me to kill her?”
After leaving the Flying Frost Pavilion for half a year, she focused on practicing. She went to every dangerous place on the Guiyuan Continent just to practice and gain battle experience. Besides, her time limit in the Pill Scroll Realm was now a month.
To her, she had very sufficient time to practice, therefore, she had advanced from a Spiritual King to a Spiritual Emperor in these six months.
She was here in the Beiqi Nation right now because this was the only way to the Xuantian Continent. Besides, she wanted to take a look at the Evanesce City to see if she could find any clue.
“No, the Spiritual Emperors around her are Middle-stage Spiritual Emperors. You are no match for them. Besides, I don’t take you as a killer.” She just took Feng Tianlan as her friend. The only friend that Gu Nansheng could open her heart to.
Even if she had once liked Si Mobai, or even if her arranged fiancé liked Feng Tianlan, she would still treat Feng Tianlan as her friend, a trustable friend.
Feng Tianlan looked at Gu Nansheng for a while and spoke. “I will help you.”
“Hum?” Gu Nansheng raised her eyebrows.
“We are friends. Those who bullied my friend should bear the consequences.”
“Haha.” Gu Nansheng laughed sincerely. All her troubles within these six months were gone. “Even though I am not a man, I think I have fallen for you and have the thought of eloping with you.”
How could someone not like Feng Tianlan. She finally understood why the weak Chuling and the impulsive Luo Yunzhu could survive in the Flying Frost Pavilion. This was because they had Feng Tianlan, who trusted her friends completely.
Feng Tianlan tugged the corner of her mouth. “I have a fiancé.”
Just as Gu Nansheng wanted to say something, the carriage came to a stop. A voice was heard. “Princess, we have arrived at the castle gates.”
Gu Nansheng let out a soft ‘uh-huh’. Just as she looked outside, she saw a lady in red standing at the castle gates. She couldn’t help but stunned in amazement. There was an indescribable feeling. She felt like she had had a similar feeling. “You are Gu Yun?”
Gu Yun looked at her with a faint smile on her face. She then bowed slightly. “Yun’er greets eldest sister.”
After greeting her, she raised up her head and looked at the person who was coming down from the carriage. The smile on her face stagnated instantly as hints of hatred flashed before her eyes. However, she recovered quickly. Therefore, the people around her didn’t realise anything wrong with her.
Feng Tianlan raised her head and met Gu Yun’s eyes. Seeing the Zhusha mole on her forehead and the similar contour, she was stunned. Was this the lady Pang Tai was looking for?
