Chapter 228: Chapter 228: Where Are You Taking My Person?

But they had never expected that their leader would be ambushed by Gu Youyou!

"Senior brother, are you all right?"

The man in black roared coldly, "You don’t need to worry about me, just do your own job."

Even though her wrist was still in pain, Gu Youyou did not let go; her hand remained tightly grasping the scalpel.

"You can endure so much? Let’s go!"

She started to panic, looking at the blade that had been pulled out, with only the very tip, about one centimeter, stained with blood. This depth didn’t even puncture his vital organs.

And she had lost her best chance.

Yue Rujing also began to panic, beating up these two failed subordinates wasn’t difficult, but the challenge was to knock these two down while also rescuing Gu Youyou from the hands of the men in black across from them.

The man in black showed no intention of wasting further time; this time, he grabbed Gu Youyou and sprinted rapidly toward the dense forest behind him.

What Gu Youyou feared most was being carried off like a sack, creating a sensation that made her heart rise to her throat. In order not to fall and die from the drop, she could only grip the man in black tighter, that resolute determination from before nowhere to be found.

The man in black sneered with contempt, "I thought you were braver than this, but it turns out you’re scared already. Hmph... wait until you meet Master, you’ll have more to fear."

Indeed, a nest of snakes and rats, Gu Youyou suddenly felt that if she fell into the hands of those perverts, she might truly consider suicide.

Up ahead, a white figure flickered, causing the man in black who was holding Gu Youyou to suddenly halt and frown deeply.

Gu Youyou looked intently and saw a figure in white robes alight in front of them, standing with hands behind his back, his voice rich and powerful.

"Where do you intend to take my person?" he asked coolly, his voice carrying an unparalleled authority.

Standing beside the man in black, Gu Youyou could clearly feel his body stiffen considerably. From the moment the white-robed man appeared, his former confidence and calm had dissipated.

Yue Rujing had also caught up from behind. Seeing the opposition, his expression relaxed, and he suddenly laughed, sheathing his Soft Sword and strolling leisurely forward.

"Ah, man proposes, God disposes, it seems like you won’t be taking anyone away today."

The man in black snorted coldly, his visible eyes full of reluctance.

After a moment of contemplation, he reluctantly let go of Gu Youyou.

"Since Senior Brother Jin has arrived, I’ll give you the face this time! Let’s go..."

With that, he signaled the other two men in black to run quickly toward the depths of the dense forest and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Think you can leave just like that? Not so easy..." Yue Rujing’s face darkened, and he chased after them.

"Ajing, don’t chase!" It seemed a little late, as Yue Rujing had already run into the woods.

Gu Youyou gave them a cursory glance, then turned her gaze back to the man in white across from her.

Her heart was pounding uncontrollably, beating wildly.

The person was a stranger, yet the voice was incomparably familiar.

Gu Youyou’s ears were sharper than most; she couldn’t forget a voice after hearing it just once, let alone a voice that was etched into her memory.

"Zijin!" she called out tentatively, but the man opposite stood still, showing no intention of coming over.

After a moment, he reached out his hand to her and motioned gently.

As if under a spell, Gu Youyou stepped forward toward him.

In the moonlight, she could see his face clearly. Familiar eyes deep and bottomless like a pond or the vast, inscrutable universe. A high nose bridge, sword-like brows that slanted into his temples, full, rosy lips, and a resolute jaw.
