Ultimately, Gu Ruoyun chose not to attend Cloudy Wind City’s banquet.
She gathered all the things that she needed after healing Old Man Jiang and left without any further delay! The delicate-looking youth, who had tagged along with Old Man Jiang, tried to speak to her several times but could not find the words. Finally, he approached Gu Ruoyun and mumbled coyly with a very red face, “I hope that we’ll meet again someday.”
After he had spoken, he then hurriedly turned and walked away as Gu Ruoyun stared in confusion at him.
Xia Linyu seems to have noticed something but he did not say a thing. Instead, he turned around and looked at the woman in green next to him before smiling and saying, “Sister, let’s go.”
“Alright.”
Gu Ruoyun nodded with a small smile as a light flashed across her eyes, “The matter at hand is most urgent at the moment so we need to rush towards the main city where the Medicine Sect’s mansion is located! Of course, if we do manage to find some of the herbs along the way, that would be even better.”
Xia Linyu smiled delicately. He had really never placed any hope into recovering his severed arm from the very beginning. Now, however, hope has been reignited in his heart.
He does not wish to drag his sister down just like he did during his past life!
He wants to utilize his own abilities to protect the person he loves the most in this lifetime.
…
The Northern Block Territory is like a country with extremely vast territories! In the Northern Block Territory, there lies an abundance of famous herbs! Hence, Gu Ruoyun had managed to collect a lot of precious medicinal herbs along the way! Unfortunately, none of the herbs that she had picked up were the herbs that she actually needed to restore Xia Linyu’s arm.
The Nemesis Forest!
Even though it was not the most fearsome place in the Northern Block Territory, the Nemesis Forest was known to contain countless danger zones and labyrinths! If someone who was unfamiliar with the Nemesis Forest’s terrain and boldly set foot into this area, all that awaits them was an eternity of bitterness!
Even if one was familiar with the landscape, the innumerable succession of danger zones and powerful spiritual beasts would give one a severe headache. Hence, not many would willingly set foot in the Nemesis Forest.
At this time, a group of men was cutting their way through thistles and thorns on a quiet little path in the Nemesis Forest as they forged their way forward.
A handsome man dressed in flax-colored robes was leading the way. His skin displayed a healthy wheat-hued tone, clearly due to encountering many frequent battles! There was a scar on the corner of his forehead but his good looks were unaffected by it. Instead, that scar added an extra sense of heroism to his handsome features.
A dainty and exquisite young woman was following closely behind him. This young woman has extremely sweet and beautiful features. Her big, vivid eyes were bright and full of expression. She looked out of place as she walked beside the rough and brawny man next to her.
“Leader, we’ve been in the Nemesis Forest for over a month now yet we’ve still not been able to get out. Are we going to be trapped here forever?”
A middle-aged man could not help but complain. Heaven knows that they have almost nearly been driven to madness after being trapped in the Nemesis Forest for over a month! If it had not been for this bunch of idiots, they would never have been forced into this state!
The man in flax-colored robes, who had been addressed as the ‘leader’, knitted his sharp brows into a tight knot. The expression on his face was not a pretty sight but, in the end, he could only sigh softly.
“I know another path in the Nemesis Forest but that path is guarded by a mid-level Martial Supreme spiritual beast! That spiritual beast is also the King of Nemesis Forest! Hence, we cannot use that path! We have no choice but to find another way at this moment.”
