Chapter 938

Without another word, Gu Yue broke her heart and committed suicide. Her decisiveness caused the two men's expressions to change. Gu Hu's father stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do.

On the other hand, Zi Chen's reaction was extremely fast. He instantly appeared in front of Gu Yue and blocked the attack before it spread to her spiritual sea. Although he managed to protect her spiritual sea and spiritual sense, the destructive energy in her body had severely damaged her body.

Without another word, Zi Chen immediately took out a treasure pill and fed it to Gu Yue. However, Gu Yue's face was filled with the will to die. The origin energy in Abdomen surged crazily, a sign that she was about to explode.

Gu Yue's unyielding nature was something Zi Chen had never seen before. However, after thinking about it, he understood that she had always been worried about her brother. Her brother's death was a blood feud, but she knew that she couldn't avenge him, so she had made a solemn vow. Now that her spiritual body was destroyed, her revenge could be considered complete. She had wanted to live and die with Zi Chen, but Zi Chen had directly rejected her. She felt that there was no longer any meaning in living. This suicide attempt wasn't purely because of Zi Chen, but more because of Gu Xiao.

However, since Zi Chen was here, he naturally couldn't watch Gu Yue die in front of him. The perfect origin energy in his body surged crazily and entered Gu Yue's body, directly suppressing the tyrannical origin energy.

"Little Yue, why are you doing this?" At this time, Gu Hu's father's sorrowful voice rang out. He quickly rushed forward and supported Gu Yue.

Gu Yue glared hatefully at Zi Chen. She didn't say anything, but her meaning was clear. Since you won't take me away, why save me?

Zi Chen did not open his mouth. After suppressing Gu Yue's tyrannical dantian, he sealed her Yuan Power. At the same time, he activated the energy of the treasure pill and began to heal Gu Yue's injured body.

Gu Yue didn't appreciate it. She tried to struggle, but was firmly held down by Zi Chen. At this time, Gu Yue discovered that the gap between her and Zi Chen was too great. Facing Zi Chen, she couldn't resist at all.

This wasn't something to be proud of, so Zi Chen immediately carried Gu Yue back to the room and placed her on the bed. He sighed and said, "Why did you do this for no reason? Others want to live but can't, but you didn't cherish your life."

Zi Chen's comforting words sounded more like a reprimand. Gu Yue, who had mostly recovered, immediately turned her head to the side. However, she smelled the scent of a man on the bed. She knew that this was Zi Chen's residence and immediately got up to leave.

However, with her strength sealed, she was like a mortal. With such a heavy injury, the moment she moved, she felt an unbearable pain in her body. She was stubborn. Her eyebrows slightly furrowed, but she didn't make a sound.

"Xiao Yue, why are you doing this?" Gu Hu's father also came to her side. His eyes were filled with helplessness, and he looked much more haggard.

Gu Yue gently bit her lips, but didn't say anything.

During this time, Zi Chen kept looking at Gu Yue, but he couldn't do anything to her.

After a while, Gu Yue turned to look at Zi Chen. Her eyes were firm, and she said in a weak voice, "You can stop me once, but you can't stop me forever. If you don't want to take me away, I'll go find my brother."

"Xiao Yue, don't take things too hard." Gu Hu's father immediately burst into tears.

Zi Chen's brows furrowed. He didn't know what to do with Gu Yue. Pausing for a moment, Zi Chen thought of an idea and said, "If you want me to take you away, it's not impossible, but you have to promise me one thing."

Gu Yue looked at Zi Chen. Her firm expression seemed to say, "Let alone one, even ten of me are fine. I'm all yours."

"Wait for me," Zi Chen said.

Gu Yue rolled her eyes. She was about to move, but her eyebrows furrowed. Clearly, she had once again aggravated her injuries. However, with the pill, her fatal injuries were much better.

Zi Chen acted as if he didn't see Gu Yue's expression. "This is my principle, and also my promise. Although I, Zi Chen, am not an indomitable person, I'm a man of my word. I won't let my woman take this risk with me. Wait for me here. If it's fast, it'll be ten years. If it's slow, it'll be fifty years. Once I've dealt with everything in the outside world, I'll come back to find you."

"You're lying," Gu Yue said.

Zi Chen stared into Gu Yue's eyes and said solemnly, "If I wanted to lie to you, I would've done so long ago. I have my own forces in the outside world. This time, I've offended many forces. Once they find my base, they'll definitely cause trouble for them. I have to go and deal with them."

Zi Chen waved his hand, stopping Gu Yue from speaking. "Don't tell me that we're going to live and die together. I, Zi Chen, won't die so easily. Not to mention, I'm alone, and I have the fastest speed in the world. If you want to kill me successfully, it will be very difficult. Furthermore, I won't let you take this risk with me, because I'm a man."

Gu Yue seemed to be moved by Zi Chen's words. A trace of hesitation appeared on her face, but after a moment, she resolutely said, "If you die, I'll kill myself."

Zi Chen laughed heartily at her words, and a burst of confidence appeared in his heart. "I have the power of perfection, so I won't die so easily. Oh right, let me tell you something. As long as you're my woman, your heart must be strong. Don't believe any news of my death. As long as you don't see my lifeless corpse with your own eyes, even if you see the things I used, don't believe that I'm dead. Because my life is very tough, I've encountered many dangers along the way, but I'm still alive."

Gu Yue's injuries had already completely healed. She sat up on the bed and nodded seriously.

Zi Chen inwardly breathed a sigh of relief. This matter had finally been resolved.

When the devil ape returned, it discovered bloodstains outside the room. It hastened its footsteps and entered the room, just in time to see the three of them. A trace of astonishment appeared on its face.

Gu Yue had just gotten off the bed, which was Zi Chen's bed. When she saw the devil ape return, it stared at her in astonishment, and a trace of embarrassment appeared in its eyes. Once again, the bashful expression of a young woman appeared on her face. She lowered her head and said, "Then I'll be heading back."

"Alright, I'll send you off." Zi Chen nodded.

After that, the devil ape looked on in shock as the three of them left.

Among the three of them, the one who was the happiest was Gu Hu's father. He was very satisfied with how Zi Chen had handled this matter. Before he left, he smiled and invited Zi Chen, "Zi Chen, come to my house for lunch tomorrow. Little Yue will personally cook."

Zi Chen seemed to have forgotten what had just happened. He smiled and said, "Sure. I've been thinking about this ever since I tasted Gu Yue's cooking. It's just that you guys haven't invited me yet, so I feel bad about freeloading."

Gu Yue's face flushed red when she heard this.

When Zi Chen returned to his residence, the devil ape was sitting there. When it saw Zi Chen enter, it looked at him strangely.

"Ai, it's a long story." Zi Chen sighed. However, he didn't say what had happened.

Since he had promised Gu Yue, he naturally couldn't leave right away. Thus, Zi Chen stayed for a few more days. During these few days, other than cultivating, Zi Chen spent the rest of his time with Gu Yue. The two of them seemed to have deliberately forgotten the unhappiness from before. They chatted and laughed like a celestial couple, causing others to be envious of them.

On the surface, Zi Chen was still the idol of everyone. However, in the dark, everyone held a clear opposition to Zi Chen hooking up with Gu Yue. It could even be said that they were envious, jealous, and resentful.

A month later, everyone gathered in the square. This was because Zi Chen and the devil ape were going to leave today. Everyone's faces were filled with reluctance, especially when they found out that only Zi Chen and the devil ape were going to leave. Their hearts bloomed with joy, and the reluctance on their faces became even stronger.

"Wait for me." Zi Chen waved to everyone. Finally, he transmitted a message to Gu Yue.

Gu Yue nodded heavily at Zi Chen and waved her hand.

"Big Brother Zi Chen, goodbye." This was Shou Hou's sincere voice, representing the majority of the ancient race members.

"Goodbye, Zi Chen."

This was Gu Hu's voice. Not only was there no sincerity in his words, but he was also urging Zi Chen to leave. Moreover, it seemed like he wanted to never see him again.

Zi Chen turned his head to look at the crowd. He did not leave immediately. The devil ape brought a pair of black gloves for Zi Chen. Putting them on, Zi Chen strode towards the black rock.

As Zi Chen approached the black rock, his body emitted a golden light. The resplendent golden light surged with an oppressive aura. By the time Zi Chen was in front of the black rock, the golden light around him had reached its limit. Zi Chen clenched his fist and punched out, sending out a powerful blow.

The essence energy in this blow was completely blocked by the black gloves. However, the comprehension of the technique within it was released through the gloves and slammed heavily on the black rock.

The entire ground shook at this moment, and the black rock trembled violently. When all the commotion ended, a deep fist mark appeared on the black rock. This fist mark was seven inches deep, similar to the one left by Gu Xiao.

At this moment, everyone was still in shock as they stared at the fist mark.

Zi Chen put down the black gloves, turned around, and flew up into the sky. As he left, he waved his hand behind him.

Many years ago, that person had left just like that, but he had never returned. He was her brother. Many years later, another person had left in such a carefree manner. He was her man. Tears flickered in Gu Yue's eyes before they finally fell. This time, she was crying for Zi Chen.

With a flash of light, the token disappeared with Zi Chen and the devil ape.

Thousands of people gathered at the Starting Ground once again. When it was time to open again, everyone gathered in the huge square. Three Mortal Origin experts prepared to soar into the sky and open the path for everyone.

This time, there were some good seedlings among the crowd. Although Sophie did not test them, she could sense that they were qualified to enter the Ancient Road of the Strongest. When she thought of these people, she thought of Zi Chen. He was the only one who dared to challenge the guardian.

'If he's lucky enough to survive, this little guy should have a great future.' Sophie thought to herself. Then, she walked towards the square.

However, before she could reach the square, the void above the Starting Ground suddenly split open. A powerful aura rushed out from within.

Five people appeared in the sky. They were all in the Mortal Origin Realm.

As these experts descended, each of them emitted a powerful aura of the Mortal Origin Realm. This aura was extremely oppressive, causing the faces of all the challengers to change.
