"Argh!"

"Argh, argh, argh!"

Mournful shrieks sounded continuously from within the cage. It caused a tremor throughout the entire forest; even the spiritual animals who heard it could not help but feel absolutely horrified. Nevertheless, the voices soon disappeared. All that was left was the wind’s whistle.

"Merely a bunch of humans who had overestimated their abilities." The Vermillion Bird curled her lips as she landed from the sky and walked towards Gu Ruoyun’s side. "Master, I’ve dealt with these people for you. You need not worry about being troubled by the members of the Charm Sect anymore."

Gu Ruoyun did not reply to her and turned away. "Let’s go," She said in an indifferent tone.

"Alright."

Qianbei Ye lifted his lips into a smile and was just about to move. However, he suddenly came to an abrupt stop. His blood-red eyes were turned towards the sky not too far away as a gloomy light flashed across his gaze.

"Yun’er, I have some business to take care of and will need to leave you for a while."

Gu Ruoyun was shocked. She turned inquisitively towards Qianbei Ye and asked, "What’s going on?"

Qianbei Ye did not reply her. Instead, he pulled her into his arms before he bent down and kissed her on the lips. He then placed his red lips by her ears and murmured, "I have some things to take care of and will be back very soon. You make your way out of this place first, I’ll catch up with you later. Now that Zixie is by your side, I can stop worrying and rest assured 1 ."

After he said these words, Qianbei Ye released his grip on her before he turned around to leave.

A hand suddenly reached out from behind him and pulled his hand tightly.

The man froze when he sensed the warmth in the woman’s hand. However, he kept his back turned towards her, afraid that if he were to look at her one more time, he would not bear to leave her.

"Xiao Ye, be careful."

Gu Ruoyun kept her eyes on the man’s figure. "I will wait for you along the way to Wind Valley."

"Alright."

A wave rose from within Qianbei Ye’s heart as a smile formed on his peerless face. "When the time comes, we’ll meet again in WInd Valley. Also..."

He paused before he continued to speak, "Yun’er, remember what you promised me last night. You can’t go back on your word. We’ll map out a plan when we meet again, alright?"

Gu Ruoyun still had some more things to say but Qianbei Ye had left with a flash of red robes which pierced through the sky and disappeared from view.

She suppressed the reluctance in her heart before she turned towards the Vermillion Bird and said, "Vermillion Bird, I think you’d better return to the Ancient Divine Pagoda. Ye Nuo, let’s go."

Ye Nuo nodded. His eyes flicked a bit and a crafty smile appeared on his face.

This fellow has finally left bodyguard Gu. At last, no one can stop me from getting close to her! I must get bodyguard Gu to marry me before he comes back!

...

On a mountain range where a cool and gentle breeze danced.

Qianbei Ye was standing tall upon the mountain peak. His silvery hair and red robes fluttered gently in the breeze as if he had just stepped out from a painting. In contrast, the dark and gloomy aura which emanated from the man could make others shiver.

"Qianbei Ye, I’d like to see how you’re going to get away this time!"

Countless figures descended from the sky and landed behind him.

Amongst the group was a woman dressed in green robes who was also their leader. She has delicate features, good looks and seems headstrong. Her large, bright eyes glared fiercely at Qianbei Ye as she spat angrily, "You murdered my husband-to-be and had then left just like that? We’ve made painstaking efforts to find you and this time, we won’t let you get away!"
