Chapter 2007: A Bit Tired, I Want to Sleep
That day, she killed a total of thirty-seven people, and when she returned to her Master’s Sect, she dragged her wounded body back.
From then on, as long as Gu Zhiqi was still in the Feng Shui Alliance, the other sects no longer dared to lightly offend anyone from the Feng Shui Alliance.
Gu Mojue had lost his Cultivation Level completely, and Gu Zhiqi tried to treat him, but she was never able to cure him.
In the end, she had no choice but to leave the Master’s Sect and search everywhere for a treatment method, and that trip lasted seven or eight years.
Only, before she could find anything, she received news of Gu Mojue’s death.
After receiving the news, Gu Zhiqi rushed back to the Master’s Sect at once, only to see Gu Mojue’s cold corpse.
With his Cultivation Level gone, the lifespan he had extended through cultivation ran out, and so Gu Mojue died.
Gu Zhiqi knelt before Gu Mojue’s spirit tablet day and night, until she finally passed out cold.
After Gu Mojue died, Gu Zhiqi took over the position of Alliance Hierarch.
Once she sat in the Alliance Hierarch’s seat, she handled sect affairs day and night; no one could talk her out of it.
In the end, on the way to the Heroes’ Banquet, she was ambushed and hunted down by her enemies who had joined forces.
At that time, Gu Zhiqi’s Cultivation Level was only at the Ninth Order. She was hunted down by seven cultivators who were also at the Ninth Order, and in the end, she died.
Chubby Chiu exhausted all its energy just to protect her soul and send her to Another World.
She hadn’t expected that when she woke up again, she would arrive here.
Gu Zhiqi was staring blankly at Ling Muyan, who was leaning against her shoulder. Hearing Chubby Chiu’s question, Gu Zhiqi’s expression was a little dazed. "Nothing, it’s just that this scene feels familiar."
After listening, Chubby Chiu didn’t know what to say for a moment.
Over there, Ling Yilin’s eyes were slightly red as she looked at Su Yunling and said, "Since Junior Sister Muyan is already dead, then... we don’t need to catch her anymore, do we?"
Su Yunling said, "This was your Master’s Sect’s internal matter to begin with. Handle it yourself."
After speaking, he glanced at Gu Zhiqi, who was in a daze.
Seeing the absent look on her face, a trace of worry rose in Su Yunling’s heart.
It seemed that ever since noon, she’d been a bit distracted, and now her state was even more...
He was worried, but Su Yunling didn’t say anything. One hand continued to hold up the umbrella, and with the other, he lifted it and took Gu Zhiqi’s hand.
Gu Zhiqi’s hand was still pinching the piece of paper Ling Muyan had given her.
So Su Yunling wrapped her entire hand and the back of it into his palm.
As for Ling Yilin, she had already carried Ling Muyan, who had been leaning on Gu Zhiqi’s shoulder, away.
The weight on her shoulder disappeared, and warmth spread from the back of her hand. Gu Zhiqi subconsciously turned her head and looked toward Su Yunling.
Those deep, hazy eyes were, for once, tinged with a hint of vulnerability.
Seeing this made Su Yunling’s heart ache; he tightened the hand that was wrapped around the back of Gu Zhiqi’s hand.
Gu Zhiqi stared at Su Yunling without saying a word. In the end, she took two steps toward him and finally fell into his arms.
After she buried her head in Su Yunling’s chest, Gu Zhiqi called him softly, "Gege."
Ever since they’d confirmed their relationship, she had never called him that again.
Su Yunling’s body paused for a moment. He reached out and wrapped his arms around Gu Zhiqi’s waist. "I’m here."
Leaning against Su Yunling’s chest, Gu Zhiqi murmured in a low voice, "I’m a little tired. I want to sleep for a while."
Su Yunling said, "Alright, sleep."
Su Yunling stood there without moving, and the person in his arms didn’t make another sound.
As if she had already fallen asleep.
"Zhizhi?"
Su Yunling tried calling out softly, but there was no response.
It really seemed like she had fallen asleep.
Su Yunling slid one arm under Gu Zhiqi’s armpits, then bent down and picked her up in a princess carry. He looked at the members of the Law Enforcement Team standing to the side and said, "Let’s head back."
Gu Zhiqi slept for a long time, and during that sleep, she had a very long dream.
In the dream, after she died, she didn’t come to this world, but went to a place called the Mystic Realm.
