Chapter 839 - Ambitious Rising Clouds Emperor

She was smart and obedient. No one could hate her.

Moreover, she had such a devastatingly beautiful face.

“I’m doing my best. By the way, why did you come to Rising Clouds Empire?” Bu Yaolian asked in concern.

Gu Bailu’s baby was due soon, and the new year was around the corner. Logically speaking, Prince Zi wouldn’t let her come out to play.

“I’m here to save two people, but I don’t know where they are,” said Gu Bailu gloomily.

“Are they very important?” Bu Yaolian asked in concern.

“They’re like my parents.”

“Tell me what they look like. I might be able to find out. Rising Clouds is my territory.”

Gu Bailu blinked. “I almost forgot that your home is in Rising Clouds Empire!”

“That’s why Shao Zun brought me here.”

Gu Bailu frowned. “What’s he doing here? Why is he here?”

Bu Yaolian took a peek at Su Shenfan. Seeing that he wasn’t looking at her, she hurried to Gu Bailu and whispered, “It’s not because of some job. I suspect that he has some secret relationship with the Archfiend and the emperor of Rising Clouds.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Gu Bailu raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean?”

“I overheard it. When Shao Zun and the emperor of Rising Clouds were talking, I accidentally overheard them. It seems that the emperor has asked their Grand Tutor to refine some kind of pill. If successful, they can use it to rule the three empires...” Bu Yaolian quickly finished her sentence, then smiled and chatted as if nothing had happened. “Rhine City’s night view is quite beautiful. I live ten miles outside of Rhine City. I’ll bring you out to play when I’m free.”

Gu Bailu nodded. “Keep an eye out for me. I’m looking for two souls. Usually, only a soul master would be able to catch them.”

“That Grand Tutor is a soul master.”

Gu Bailu clenched her fists.

“One more thing. Shao Zun has a piece of the mirror we used the last time for the blood swap.”

“Sky Splitting Mirror!” Gu Bailu was astonished. It seemed she had gained a lot from this trip.

“The emperor of Rising Clouds Empire also has one. It seems that both pieces are needed to refine that pill. That’s all I can say. I originally wanted to write a letter to tell you, so it’s just as well I ran into you now. I’m afraid that things are going to change...”

Bu Yaolian was a little worried. If the pill was successfully refined, the three countries would be in chaos.

The Rising Clouds Emperor’s ambitions were terrifying.

Gu Bailu nodded. “You... should also be careful around Su Shenfan. He’s a smiling tiger.”

“I know, hehe.” How could Bu Yaolian not know what sort of person Su Shenfan was? On the surface, he could smile as sincerely as he wanted. Usually, he didn’t put on airs and anyone could hang out with him, but that was a pretense.

If he was unhappy, he could take your life.

But that was precisely the Su Shenfan that she liked. From the moment they met, when she saw his golden mask and the half of his face that was exposed, she liked him. It was love at first sight, and she couldn’t extricate herself from it.

“Let’s go. Let’s not talk for too long in case he gets suspicious.”

Gu Bailu turned around and returned to the table. Bu Yaolian followed her happily.

Feng Qingtian held her hand, looking awful. “The noodles are cold.”

“Then I won’t eat them. I gave Lian’er some of the rouge that she likes.” Gu Bailu fell into his arms. “I’m tired.”

She yawned.

Pregnant women were sleepy and tired easily. Feng Qingtian picked her up and said, “Go back and rest.”
