The Marriage of an Esteemed Supreme Healer, a Noble Ruler

Chapter 697: News

Chu Liuyue didn’t move, and the rest naturally did not budge either.

The scene was completely silent for a moment.

Lei Laosi detected that something was amiss and tightly furrowed his thick brows. “What, did all of you not hear what I just said?”

Chu Liuyue smiled and said, “Big Brother Lei, you followed us all the way just now. I believe that you should also know that we came here to find out what’s on the upper side of the stream… We came here with much difficulty, yet you directly asked us to leave. Isn’t this quite inappropriate?”

Lei Laosi seemed to have heard some joke as he laughed and stared at the few people as if he were looking at some unreasonable children who were ridiculously fearless.

He raised his chin. “I know you want to enter this barrier, but… Why don’t you take a look at this place and see if you have the abilities to enter? You just barged right in. Youths really know no fear. Aren’t you afraid that you’ll die here?”

Chu Liuyue said respectfully and sincerely, “Thank you for the reminder, Big Brother Lei, but I have always been someone that cherishes my life a lot. I definitely won’t do anything that will threaten my life. If I do it, it proves that I have the confidence to extract myself from it completely.”

“Arrogant!!” Lei Laosi yelled in frustration. “You just came for the legendary fiend! At the end of the day, isn’t it just because you want to extract the legendary fiend blood for Shangguan Wan? What for His Majesty… It’s all bullshit!”

His words were filled with contempt and hatred toward Shangguan Wan.

Chu Liuyue shook her head. “Big Brother Lei, don’t misunderstand. We really have nothing to do with Shangguan Wan, so it’s impossible for us to do anything for her. Only Jiang Yucheng and those people are willing to do this for her, but it definitely doesn’t include us.”

Lei Laosi suddenly thought of something and said in an indefinite manner, “Jiang Yucheng is also here?”

His sentence directly seemed like it was squeezed out of his teeth. Every single word was brought with etching hatred.

It was exactly the same when compared to his attitude toward Shangguan Wan previously.

“Honestly speaking, we only walked a distance away just now. But when we turned around again, they had already disappeared…” Chu Liuyue didn’t finish her sentence when she heard Lei Laosi laugh out loud.

Upon thinking of what they were currently experiencing, Lei Laosi immediately felt much better, and his eyes were even smiling. “Since you could avoid the mist and even reach here, it proves that you do have some fate. But… this really isn’t some place you should stay! If you still refuse to leave, then I’ll send you guys off! Take it as me repaying you for telling me such good news!”

Then, Lei Laosi whipped out his hammer from his waist.

Just as he was about to take action, he saw the girl opposite smile with her eyes curled up. “Big Brother Lei, it’s possible that we don’t go in, but can’t you just let us watch from here? After all… We have never seen a ninth-grade fiend breaking through before, so it’s inevitable that we are curious. See, we already reached here with much difficulty…”

With her smile, it seemed like the entire river of stars entered her eyes as they dazzled and shone brightly.

Seeing Lei Laosi’s expression relax for a moment, Chu Liuyue thought that he was convinced and hurriedly said, “We promise that we’ll just stay here, and we definiteý won’t randomly move or get into trouble. After we finish watching, we’ll leave immediately. How’s that?”

Seeing her sincere gaze filled with desire, Lei Laosi faltered. Then, he silently looked at the area behind Chu Liuyue and the rest.

Chu Liuyue knew that he was looking at someone else. Even though she didn’t know who that person was and didn’t know why that person didn’t want to reveal themselves, their identity had to be similar to that of Lei Laosi.

Lei Laosi’s glance was clearly to discuss with that person.

Chu Liuyue’s eyes moved slightly, and she continued saying, “Anyway, Big Brother Lei, you’re here too. Are you afraid that we’ll do something? Besides… Many things have happened in Xi Ling City recently. Why don’t we sit down and talk about it?”

Lei Laosi coldly chuckled. “You’re so young, but you do have a glib tongue! It’s not that you can’t stay here, but all of you must move ten steps back! Without my permission, nobody is allowed to take another step forward!”

He also didn’t know why he couldn’t harden his heart when he looked at Chu Liuyue.

She had a vague sense of familiarity.

Chu Liuyue immediately said happily, “Thank you, Big Brother Lei!”

Then, she hurriedly exchanged glances with the few of them and pulled them backward.

Chu Liuyue detected its desire as she grabbed its tail and pressed it against her arms. Then, she softly said, “Tuan Zi, listen.”

Tuan Zi could only lay in her arms obediently, but its eyes kept floating to that side.

After moving ten steps back, Chu Liuyue and the rest stood still.

Lei Laosi looked at them and asked, “What happened in Xi Ling City? Tell me about it.”

She thought for a while and said, “In a few months, Shangguan Wan and Jiang Yucheng are getting married.”

Lei Laosi immediately straightened his body, and the veins popped on his forehead as his face flushed red with anger. “How dare they—”

A roar that shook the mountains and rivers suddenly came from within the rainbow barrier.

The black clouds tumbled in the sky as silver snake-like lightning quickly gathered within the clouds.

Terrifying suppression swept across the area as the forest howled.

Chu Liuyue’s entire body was shocked, and her eardrums were about to burst.

The others weren’t any better as their faces paled in unison.

Chu Liuyue immediately looked up.

The countless rays of rainbow light were gathering at the upper side.

Tuan Zi stuck its head out from her arms, and its black and watery eyes gradually became rainbow!
