Hua Qianjun could not help but stare at her again. Miss Gu was, indeed, a beautiful and capable woman. It was not surprising that the Devil King admired her so much and that the princess would not stand a chance.
Initially, he always thought that Gu Xijiu was a latecomer and a third party who manipulated the feelings of the Devil King, but now, it seemed that this was not the case. Perhaps their princess was the third party?
All three of them were masters in their own right, and their array-forming techniques were excellent. Thus, when Gu Xijiu instructed them to arrange the array according to her specifications, they could understand her very well and finished their jobs quickly.
It was initially a very complicated and challenging array, but it was arranged in less than a quarter of an hour because of the talented hands involved in the arrangement. While they were at work, Gu Xijiu quickly explained the functions of the array, as well as the matters needing attention during the fight.
Her explanations were simple and straightforward; they were also well-organized and straight to the point. Over time, Hua Qianjun’s admiration for Gu Xijiu only continued to grow. She was certainly no ordinary woman. She was unlike Princess Yuanyuan, who was also very beautiful though in a delicate manner. She could easily trigger any man’s strong desire to protect her.
On the other hand, Miss Gu was very independent and confident, yet also charming at the same time. It was impossible for anyone to ignore her. Even if Hua Qianjun did not want to admit it, deep inside his heart, he felt that Miss Gu and his Devil King were a better match. Nonetheless, he still sympathized with his princess.
Suddenly, the three of them heard a rumbling sound from above. It was clear that Di Fuyi and the team had successfully attracted the attention of the crocodile they intended to capture. Judging from the noise, they were coming back very soon!
Gu Xijiu quickly teleported to the tip of the highest rock and said, “Standby at your designated positions!”
Zhu Duqing and Hua Qianjun rushed to their own respective positions. In a frenzied state, Hua Qianjun expressed a concern, “Miss Gu, what if the other three do not recognize this array?”
This array required five people to hold up. The three of them would not make any mistake; however, if the other three did not recognize this array, they may even find themselves trapped in the formation.
“Your Devil King knows this array, and I will take care of the other two people.”
While they were talking, three figures dashed in at lightning speed while a behemoth figure followed suit. Gu Xijiu’s eyes were sharp as she quickly noticed the purple cord Di Fuyi used to tie Yun Qingluo. Furthermore, Yun Qingluo’s clothes were in a mess. Her face was slightly greenish, and her lips were black. This was a sign that she had been poisoned!
“Booooom!” The silver ring crocodile slammed into the array! Quickly, Gu Xijiu teleported to Yun Qingluo’s side and shoved an antidote into her mouth. She quickly covered her mouth to force her to swallow the medicine. As Gu Xijiu moved so quickly, Yun Qingluo did not have time to prevent the medication from entering her throat.
Hua Qianjun was shocked and subconsciously jumped over. “Miss Gu, what are you doing?!”
“Saving her life!” Gu Xijiu spoke very briefly and handed Yun Qingluo to Guardian Hua. “Bring her to the corner of the cave that we passed earlier. It is the safest there.”
Yun Qingluo never thought that Gu Xijiu would save her. She opened her eyes and looked at Gu XIjiu with complicated feelings, but she did not speak and closed her eyes again. Guardian Hua did not dare to challenge Gu Xijiu and immediately took Yun Qingluo to the said place.
