Chapter 89 Emei Four Beauties
Chapter 89 Emei Four Beauties
"Gu...Gu Yu, it's Gu Yu!"
Before Gu Yu could speak, a man on the other side, looking terrified, shouted in a trembling voice.
These words immediately caused a stir among the other party.
"Walk!"
The leader gave Gu Yu a careful look, then, with a livid face, raised his hand, turned around, and strode away.
Gu Yu: "..."
Not giving me face?
I thought they were here to give me Fate Points.
Who knew they'd slip away so quickly?
After walking quite a distance, the petty boss gritted his teeth and asked his subordinate, "Are you sure you saw clearly? Is it really that Gu Yu?"
The subordinate, looking visibly shaken, said, "I'd recognize him even if he were ashes. He killed over eighty of our brothers."
With so many disciples in the Green Robe Pavilion, they naturally wouldn't care about the deaths of more than eighty people.
However, they feared that this could spiral out of control and shake the foundation of the Green Robe Pavilion. Therefore, the higher-ups specifically instructed them not to provoke Gu Yu again.
At the same time, two female disciples of Emei looked at Gu Yu with surprise.
"It's alright, they've already left."
Gu Yu smiled as he looked at the two women.
The two women finally came to their senses and hurriedly bowed and thanked them.
The older female disciple introduced herself: "My name is Sun Xiuqing, and this is my junior sister, Shi Xiuxue."
Gu Yu smiled and cupped his hands in greeting: "So you are the Four Beauties of Emei..."
The Emei Sect currently has seven elite disciples, all of whom are direct disciples of the sect leader, Dugu Yihe, and are collectively known as the "Three Heroes and Four Outstanding Figures".
Shi Xiuxue asked with a curious look, "Why did the people at Qingyi Tower run away as if they'd seen a ghost the moment they heard your name, young master?"
Sun Xiuqing couldn't help but scold, "Junior Sister, how can you talk like that?"
Shi Xiuxue playfully stuck out her tongue, then frowned, as if the wound had been aggravated.
Gu Yu said, "It looks like you two are seriously injured. Let's find a place to heal first."
Fortunately, both women only had superficial injuries. After applying some of the sect's special wound medicine and meditating for half a day, they had recovered about 70-80%.
It was already dark.
Gu Yu lit a bonfire on the riverbank and caught a few fish to grill over the fire.
"Young master, why are the people of the Green Robe Pavilion afraid of you?"
Sun Xiuqing couldn't help but ask this question out of curiosity.
Gu Yu countered with a question: "You two have been traveling the martial world for so long, haven't you ever heard of me?"
"This..." Sun Xiuqing smiled sheepishly, "My junior sister and I have been practicing swordsmanship on the mountain for the past year, and we just came down from the mountain not long ago."
Shi Xiuxue added, "Yes, yes, after coming down the mountain, almost everything I heard was about the duel between the Lord of Baiyun City and Ximen Chuixue."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yu understood.
News in the martial arts world is all about popularity and traffic. Nowadays, what topic can compare to the duel between two top masters?
So Gu Yu explained, "Back in Guangzhou, the Green Robe Pavilion tried to assassinate me..."
After he explained the reason, the two women were shocked.
Shi Xiuxue covered her mouth and said, "Heavens! Young Master, you wiped out a branch of the Green Robe Pavilion all by yourself. No wonder they were so afraid of you."
A glint of surprise flashed in Sun Xiuqing's eyes as she murmured, "It seems that the young master's strength is comparable to those top experts."
Gu Yu said modestly, "You flatter me, young lady. I am simply unattached. As the saying goes, those with nothing to lose are not afraid of those with shoes. The Qingyi Tower is a large and powerful organization, and naturally, it would not want to argue with a barefoot man."
"Hiss~"
Hearing such a witty remark, the two women couldn't help but laugh out loud.
To be honest, although the two women were not as stunning as Gongsun Lan, they were still beauties among beauties, and what was rare was that they still had some innocence.
Chatting with the two of them was quite enjoyable.
"By the way, why are the people from the Green Robe Pavilion chasing after you two?"
"This..." Sun Xiuqing seemed a little embarrassed.
Shi Xiuxue, being outspoken, couldn't help but say, "Second Senior Sister, what's wrong with saying this? Young Master Gu and Qingyi Tower are mortal enemies."
Sun Xiuqing sighed and said, "Alright, it's fine to tell Young Master Gu. My master accidentally learned some secrets about the Green Robe Tower. This time, he came down the mountain for two reasons: first, to watch the final battle between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue; and second, to take this opportunity to contact experts from various sects to deal with the Green Robe Tower together."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yu frowned and asked, "How many people know about this?"
"Logically speaking, only Master and the seven of us, the senior and junior brothers and sisters, should know this."
Gu Yu shook his head: "The news must have been leaked, otherwise the Green Robe Tower wouldn't be chasing you for no reason."
"Ugh!"
The two women sighed in unison, their hearts heavy.
Gu Yu then asked, "Are you two going to the capital?"
Sun Xiuqing nodded: "Yes, we are preparing to go to the capital to meet up with our master."
Gu Yu smiled and said, "Perfect timing! I'm also heading to the capital. Why don't we go together?"
The two women couldn't have it.
With Gu Yu traveling with them, they no longer needed to worry about the assassins from Qingyi Tower causing trouble for them.
The rest of the trip was filled with laughter and joy.
The two sisters have very different styles. Sun Xiuqing is beautiful, intelligent, gentle and steady, while Shi Xiuxue is like a girl next door, lively and playful, yet innocent and carefree.
That night, the three of them missed their lodging and found a sheltered spot in the mountains to rest.
Seeing the bright moonlight and the two women meditating and regulating their breathing, Gu Yu strolled along and soon came across a small pond.
There was a large blue stone by the pool. Gu Yu jumped onto the stone, sat down, and admired the beautiful scenery under the moon.
After a while, a beautiful figure slowly walked over.
Gu Yu didn't need to turn around; he could tell it was Sun Xiuqing just by looking at her shadow.
Sure enough, before he could turn around, Sun Xiuqing's soft voice sounded behind him: "Is the young master lost in thought?"
Gu Yu turned around and smiled: "No, it's just a rare peaceful night, so I'm sitting here enjoying the scenery."
Sun Xiuqing leaped onto the bluestone, looked around, and laughed, "This place feels so familiar. There's a pool like this in the back mountain of our sect. My junior sister and I often play in the pool here."
Gu Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he smiled, "So, would you like to play in the water now?"
Sun Xiuqing blushed, bit her lip lightly, and glanced at Gu Yu with a look that seemed both pleased and reproachful.
In fact, Gu Yu had already sensed a subtle emotion in her eyes.
In ancient times, women were prone to falling in love with men at first sight, a situation dictated by their environment. After a single meeting, they might never see each other again in this lifetime.
Therefore, even a talented woman like Zhuo Wenjun, after hearing Sima Xiangru's song "The Phoenix Seeks Its Mate" and peeking through the crack in the door, resolutely eloped with him that very night.
"Don't worry, young lady, I'll turn around and promise I won't peek!"
After saying that, Gu Yu immediately moved his body and turned his back to the pool.
"Splash splash splash—"
After a while, I heard the sound of splashing water.
Just one glance.
The main purpose was to check if there was anyone else around.
With this in mind, Gu Yu quickly turned his head and glanced at it—
"Hmph, I knew you wouldn't be honest."
As it turned out, he met Sun Xiuqing's coquettish gaze...
