Fierce Love: Bringing Wife Home
Chapter 447 - 67 Ya

Chapter 447: Chapter 67 Ya

Gu Xiaoxi fell silent for a moment.

Zhao Zilong was okay because he had always been following her, even if he didn’t tell the truth.

He would listen to her arrangements.

However, Duruo and Che Junqing were not originally from Division Z. Besides, there were unresolved grudges between them.

Gu Xiaoxi touched her chin, feeling that she still shouldn’t speak carelessly.

If her plan with the military was discovered by Kang Di, all of their arrangements could be ruined, and it would put everyone in danger.

"I have nothing to say. You all listen to me, cooperate with Kang Di for now. If you don’t listen, I can only..." As Gu Xiaoxi finished speaking, she smiled with a hook of her lips.

"What can you do?" Che Junqing was the first to object, "You can’t represent us. I don’t agree to cooperate with a criminal."

Gu Xiaoxi touched her chin, a sly smile appeared in her eyes, "Disagree if you want. Yun Xiao, Zhao Zilong, find some ropes and tie them up."

"You dare!" Duruo immediately jumped up. This woman was outrageous.

Before he could finish speaking, the next second, Gu Xiaoxi suddenly stood up, grabbed Duruo by the shoulder, and threw him to Zhao Zilong and Yun Xiao.

The three of them didn’t hesitate to tie the two up with ropes and lock them in a room.

Zhao Zilong looked at the people tied up on the bed, and said with difficulty, "Gu Xiaoxi, this doesn’t feel right. What exactly are you planning?"

Gu Xiaoxi, unabashedly in front of Kang Di’s surveillance, recounted her cooperation with him.

Zhao Zilong’s face darkened immediately. However, as long as they weren’t helping Kang Di do evil deeds, anything was fine.

Night fell.

Gu Xiaoxi stood in the villa area, which, although not as luxurious as the houses in the city center, was much quieter than the luxurious villas in the city center.

Gu Xiaoxi could move freely in this villa area, but she could not leave. If she went out, someone would always follow her.

She surveyed the terrain and learned from Kang Di’s subordinates that this was just one of his many properties.

He owned many other properties in Dongqi Country, and his headquarters was in Lashi, the most bustling city in Dongqi Country.

Lashi was a gathering place for the nouveau riche in Dongqi Country, its luxury comparable to paradise.

The extreme gap between the rich and the poor gave the country extremes in living standards.

Gu Xiaoxi sat in front of the courtyard, looking at the dark night.

How she missed the skies of Liuli Country, the air of Liuli Country, and the people far away in Liuli Country.

Yun Xiao sat beside her, staring blankly ahead, taking a long time before he ventured a question, "How long will we be here?"

"It shouldn’t be too long."

As soon as she found out about Kang Di’s headquarters in Lashi, they could close the net.

...

While Gu Xiaoxi and Yun Xiao were feeling down, a melodious flute sound broke the stillness of the night.

Gu Xiaoxi had never heard such a pleasant sound, like countless phoenixes soaring and crying in unison, a sound that shook one’s soul.

"Who is playing the flute?" Yun Xiao was surprised. To hear such a distinctive flute sound from such a far-off place was like a wandering beggar abroad finally tasting a bite of food from home.

"Miss Gu, it must be Ya! This is his favorite type of music," a bodyguard stepped forward to speak.

Gu Xiaoxi stood up from the steps, dusting off the dirt from her clothes, "I’ll go have a look. Yun Xiao, coming with me?"

"No, thanks!" Yun Xiao certainly hadn’t forgotten that palm hit from Ya at noon. His skills were really impressive.

Following the sound, Gu Xiaoxi arrived in front of a breadfruit tree.

The trunk was so thick that several people couldn’t wrap their arms around it, and standing on the densely grown top branches of the tree was Ya.

Moonlight scattered over the land, Ya’s silhouette was tall and well-proportioned, unlike most men who were brawny and imposing, he had a slender grace reminiscent of a carefree nobleman. Especially since his skin was like hers, pale as jade, even emitting a subtle luminescence at night, his every move exuded an extraordinary air.

There was no need to guess, he must be cultivating a technique similar to hers.

In such a vast world, one in a hundred million people could cultivate Spiritual Qi. If all such individuals were found, the number would certainly be enormous.

"It’s you!" Seeing Gu Xiaoxi, Ya put down the jade flute in his hand.

Gu Xiaoxi could tell at a glance that his jade flute was no ordinary item, for jade flutes were rare, especially ones of fine quality that also contained spiritual energy; they were exceedingly valuable.

"How many years have you known Mr. Kang?" Gu Xiaoxi asked.

Without hesitation Ya replied, "Ten years."

"Then you must know him well?"

"No, not at all. I just do some tasks for him, I wouldn’t bother getting to know those meaningless details."

Gu Xiaoxi crossed her arms, finding him to be a very strange person.

If the matter with Kang Di is meaningless, why would he still help him?

"Do you have any wishes, or what is your purpose in living?" Gu Xiaoxi asked again. Her seemingly casual questions all had a purpose.

Ya sized up Gu Xiaoxi a few times, then jumped down from the breadfruit tree, landing in front of Gu Xiaoxi, and said leisurely, "I live only to do two things, become stronger and find love!"

"Now you’re quite skilled, but have you found love yet?"

Gu Xiaoxi clearly saw Ya hesitate for a moment. "Becoming skilled is simple, but love is difficult. Especially finding someone who reciprocates your feelings."

"That’s so true!" Gu Xiaoxi said with a smile, "But don’t lose heart, the sea of people is vast. You will eventually meet the right person."

Although it seemed like she was just making small talk with Ya.

Gu Xiaoxi had already quietly picked up a dead branch and was quickly writing words on the ground.

[Do you understand Kang Di?]

Ya looked at the words on the ground and then nodded his head.

Gu Xiaoxi knew she couldn’t speak carelessly because her clothing had been bugged by Kang Di.

"Do you know what love is?" Gu Xiaoxi continued the idle chat with a smile while writing on the ground, [Help me! I can give you a reward, or any item you need in exchange.]

Ya glanced at Gu Xiaoxi’s message and chuckled, "Then tell me what love is!"

Gu Xiaoxi erased the words on the ground and looked up at the sky, "I don’t feel like telling you right now!"

MD! He won’t help her, but still expects her to answer his questions.

Ya couldn’t help but laugh, finding it amusing how she was threatening him. He took the branch from Gu Xiaoxi’s hand and wrote on the ground.

[I can help you. But I want something, if you can help me find it, I will help you.]

[What?] Gu Xiaoxi asked.

[A Phoenix Feather] Ya wrote these words seriously and resolutely.

Gu Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment and her face immediately darkened.

This guy truly has some nerve asking for a Phoenix Feather!

How could that possibly be?

That Little Phoenix barely had a few feathers to begin with, not to mention those are the essence of the Phoenix’s life. Losing a feather is like a human being cut off a finger.

Where would she get one! Even if she knew the Little Phoenix, that guy definitely wouldn’t give her a feather.

If she tried to pluck one forcibly, she might instantly be burned up leaving not even bones behind.

Seeing Gu Xiaoxi’s face turn absolutely dark, Ya said gravely, "Tell me what is love? You seem to understand it well!"

Gu Xiaoxi played with the dead branch in her hand, her thin lips lifting in a faint smile, "To find someone you like and wish to spend your whole life with. To pamper her (him), to love her (him) for a lifetime, that is love, I guess!"

At least, that’s how Quan Shaoqing loved her.

Ya pondered for a moment, seemingly considering the question seriously.

"..." He no longer spoke, but wrote with the branch on the ground. [You can owe me the item, give it to me when you have it. What do you want me to do for you?]

Gu Xiaoxi quickly replied [The exact location of Kang Di’s headquarters and his internal information. I not only need it but you also have to deliver it to the military for me.]

[You’re asking me to betray Kang Di!]

[Is that really a betrayal? You’ve never truly obeyed him. Since it’s a trade, you get a Phoenix Feather, I get the information!]

Gu Xiaoxi felt that this was a fair deal.

[I’ll think about it!] Ya never wanted to get entangled in worldly strife.

Good and evil have never coexisted since ancient times. He would help Kang Di, but never with smuggling, drug dealing, or killing. Only fetching some items or capturing people they couldn’t defeat themselves.

Though his hands were not stained with blood, he indirectly carried much foulness.

It also disrupted his cultivation.

[Give me an answer by tomorrow morning, we don’t have much time.]

Gu Xiaoxi wrote the last words, drawing a cute little pig on the ground afterward.

Then, she threw down the branch and walked back.

Ya also drew a small pig on the ground; clearly, the pig had a flower on its head, likely representing a female.

After both had left, Kang Di’s subordinate stepped forward, looking at the pair of little pigs on the ground, and was momentarily speechless. At the same time, he was relieved, as long as they were not conspiring anything, it didn’t matter whether they drew little pigs or even a portrait of Kang Di himself.
