Chapter 840 - Being By Your Side Is Really Hard

Gu Bailu said goodbye to Su Shenfan. “Farewell, Shao Zun. Lian’er, I’m leaving.”

Feng Qingtian glanced at Su Shenfan before he said, “Let’s go.”

He then carried Gu Bailu into the carriage.

The onlookers who were squatting under the willow tree and eating noodles saw that everyone had left and no one was using the tables, so they returned to the tables.

Bu Yaolian took out two small boxes of rouge and took a sniff. The rouge boxes were very exquisitely made. There was a carved blue lotus flower on each box, and when she opened them, they gave off a pleasant fragrance.

This was a rouge which Gu Bailu had gotten her people to make, and which was especially useful.

“Did you obtain treasure?” Su Shenfan looked at her in disdain, looking down his nose at the way she treated the two boxes of rouge like treasure.

“This kind of rouge is only available in Prince Zi’s house. Lulu made them herself, and it’s very effective. Women with darker skin can become as fair as jade and it looks very natural.”

Su Shenfan stood up. “How rare.”

Bu Yaolian put away the rouge and left with him. Before she left, she couldn’t help but look at the cold noodles again. What a pity, what a pity. This had become her favorite.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

When she was in her teens, she could eat ten big bowls of rice.

Now, for the sake of love, for the sake of slimming down, she could even abandon Little Shop Noodles. Bu Yaolian almost moved herself.

“Walk faster. Why are you dawdling?” However, the person she worked so hard for wasn’t moved at all.

“Shao Zun, the princess must be very angry.” Bu Yaolian jogged along behind him. Thinking about how Xiao Yin’er had been knocked out and taken away in such a sorry state, word of it would probably spread throughout the entire city.

When had Xiao Yin’er ever suffered like this?

“Why? Afraid that your ex-master will be bullied?” Su Shenfan raised his eyebrows and looked at her askance.

“I... I’m not.”

She wasn’t afraid. Prince Zi and his wife wouldn’t be bullied. The emperor of Rising Clouds was ambitious, but Prince Zi was also ruthless.

“Tsk, how heartless. That’s your previous master and you don’t care even a little bit.” Su Shenfan sneered.

Bu Yaolian: “...”

What do you want?!

If I worry about my previous master, you think I’m disloyal.

If I don’t worry about my previous master, you call me ungrateful.

Being by your side is really hard.

In the carriage, Gu Bailu told Feng Qingtian what she heard from Bu Yaolian. “I’m guessing that they’re using my parents’ souls to refine that pill.”

The Archfiend was involved in this and Nan Ningxin was one of the Archfiend’s people; no wonder she knew that Gu Bailu’s parents’ souls were in Rising Clouds Empire.

“A pill to rule the three countries?” Feng Qingtian narrowed his eyes. “I didn’t expect Xiao Jingyun to be so ambitious.”

“We have to grab this pill even once it’s created; the main thing is that they can’t use my parents’ souls.” Gu Bailu conversely thought that this pill was pretty good. The three countries were too divided right now; they might be easier to manage if they were united.

To lead mankind toward a new beginning.

“They will definitely guard this matter closely. I’ll have someone investigate, but it’s best to have Yaolian ask around. She’s with Su Shenfan, so it’s easy for her to get close.”

Gu Bailu nodded. “Lian’er is smart. She’ll find a way.”

“When we dual cultivate later, you should be able to recover quite a lot of your spiritual energy.” Feng Qingtian kissed her ear.

“...”

They were still discussing important matters. Why did the atmosphere suddenly change?

“We haven’t dual cultivated in a long time. I’ve held back for so long it’s unbearable,” said Feng Qingtian pitifully.

Gu Bailu thought for a moment. It had indeed been a long time.

Five days was really a long time...

The previous two nights, Gu Bailu had been too weak for Feng Qingtian to touch her and they had been hurrying along on the road, so he could only hold back. For this beast, it really was quite unbearable.
