Chapter 215: Anything is OK, except the Life and Death Gu
Chapter 215: Anything is OK, except the Life and Death Gu
The Miao people all looked at Jiang Hechuan and began to whisper to each other.
"I guess Jiang Hechuan will win the championship again this year."
"He's been the champion in recent years, so it's no longer a surprise. Instead, it makes us feel like it's a foregone conclusion."
"I'm quite curious about what treasure he will ask the clan leader for this year?"
"Do you think he will ask the clan leader to marry Xue Ya?"
"They are childhood sweethearts, and their marriage should have been on the agenda a long time ago."
Even though they lowered their voices, Jiang Hechuan who was standing beside them still heard it.
He swept his arrogant eyes over the crowd, "You guys love to gossip so much, why don't I cut off all your tongues?"
When everyone heard this, they lowered their heads and dared not say a word.
Who in the clan doesn't know that Jiang Hechuan is a man of his word?
Every word he said was true.
Who dares to provoke?
Yun Fuxue, who was standing in the crowd, slowly stood up and said, "I just treat Brother Hechuan as my elder brother. You two should stop discussing marriage."
They looked at each other, unable to utter a word.
Chi Feiwan did not catch the trace of loneliness on Yun Fuxue's face.
Yun Fuxue saw her in the crowd, waved to her, picked up her skirt and trotted over.
Although Chi Feiwan suspected that she was most likely the woman who took his jade locket, he couldn't hate her.
Maybe it's because she is innocent and has a likable personality.
Yun Fuxue smiled and said, "Sister Wan, I finally found you. I thought you wouldn't come."
"How could that be?" Chi Feiwan's eyes softened a little, "I'm still waiting for the Life and Death Gu to save people."
"Brother Hechuan will definitely get it for you." Yun Fuxue's eyes were a little lonely, and her voice was a little weaker. "But if you leave, I will never see you again."
Chi Feiwan was about to comfort her when her eyes turned and she suddenly said, "Sister Wan, why don't you take me away from the villa? I also want to see the outside world."
"Let's not talk about whether the clan leader agrees or not. Even if he agrees, I wouldn't dare take you away." Chi Feiwan said, "The world is dangerous. I can't protect you."
"Sister Wan..." Yun Fuxue held her arm, her tone softened a little, and was tinged with a coquettish tone.
But Chi Feiwan's expression remained as calm as ever, without a trace of emotion.
Seeing that there was no hope, Yun Fuxue calmed down.
Duan Yian watched from the side, silent and thoughtful.
Yunyougui came to the center of the arena under everyone's gaze and said solemnly:
"Before the competition, let me explain the rules. The winner cannot obtain any treasure except the Life and Death Gu."
The light in Chi Feiwan's eyes suddenly went out.
Why did the patriarch say it now?
Could it be that the patriarch acted like this because of their arrival?
The veins on the back of Duan Yian's hand suddenly bulged, and he was surrounded by anger.
Yun Fuxue frowned slightly and said to Yun Yougui in a loud voice, "Daddy, why did you remove the Life and Death Gu?"
"Xue'er, stop messing around!" Yunyougui shouted.
Jiang Hechuan's eyebrows curled up coldly, "Why did the clan leader suddenly say this? Did someone tell you something?"
"The Life and Death Gu is a rare treasure. There is really no way to give it as a reward to the winner." Yunyou Guidao.
Jiang Hechuan sneered and said sternly:
"Then why wasn't this rule in previous years? It was only because these two came to seek the Life and Death Gu that the clan leader made this request?"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar around.
Yunyougui became the target of public criticism.
The whole clan was talking about it.
"So, an outsider came to our Miao tribe to seek the Life and Death Gu!"
"Actually, there's nothing wrong with what the clan leader did. Life and Death Gu cannot be passed on to outsiders."
"But isn't Life and Death Valley meant to save people? So whoever it's given to doesn't matter. Besides, it will be earned by the winner with all their heart, so the winner can give it to whoever they want."
"In that case, it's really unfair for the clan leader to change the rules at the last minute."
Yun Yougui stood in the center of the arena, staring solemnly at the people below, and said in a solemn voice:
"I only have one Life and Death Gu. If I give it away as a reward, what will happen if something happens to an elder in our clan?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole place was silent.
They all showed a look of approval on their faces.
Jiang Hechuan stared at Yun Yougui with a dark gaze and sneered, "Patriarch, you are making excuses for yourself like this. I hope you won't regret it in the future."
After saying this, Jiang Hechuan came to Chi Feiwan, held her white wrist bone, and flew into the air.
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from everyone's sight.
Duan Yian's eyes were shrouded in a dark color, and he caught up with the help of his lightness skills.
"Wait for me." Yun Fuxue didn't know how to do Qinggong, so he could only jog.
Jiang Hechuan brought Chi Feiwan back to Xueyuan and said to her:
"I was originally thinking of going with you to claim the token, but now there's no need. I'll pack my bags and leave the villa with you."
Chi Feiwan's eyes swept across the shallow red mark on his wrist, and he said in a low voice, "I can't leave the villa like this. I still have to ask the clan leader for the Life and Death Gu."
"He has made up his mind not to give you the Life and Death Gu." Jiang Hechuan's tone was full of frivolousness. "Or do you want to recognize him?"
Chi Feiwan shook his head without hesitation, "I don't want to recognize him. I'll think of other ways."
"This is the only way." Jiang Hechuan said.
Chi Feiwan stood under the pear tree, wearing a fiery red dress, her loose black hair flying back in the wind, her face like a peach blossom, her lips red, she was breathtakingly beautiful.
A few white petals fell on her hair, taking away some of her charm and adding a touch of softness.
She pursed her red lips, frowned her delicate brows, and fell into deep thought.
Jiang Hechuan's deep black eyes were fixed on her, with a hint of tenderness hidden in his eyes.
After a long while, he said indifferently, "If you've thought it over, I can take you to find him."
Chi Feiwan raised her eyelashes slightly, and met his relaxed and leisurely eyes, "I still want to try another method."
She seemed to be stuck in a dead end.
If she went to recognize the clan leader, it would not be a good thing for Yun Fuxue.
Yun Fuxue's future will only become more difficult.
But if she didn't admit it, she wouldn't be able to use the Life and Death Gu to save Xiao Chenyuan.
Jiang Hechuan's sharp dark eyes seemed to see through her. He sneered, "Are you worried about putting Yun Fuxue in trouble? But since she stole your token of recognition, she should have expected this day to come."
Before Chi Feiwan could speak, an incredulous voice rang out from behind him, "What are you talking about?"
It was Yun Fuxue's voice.
Chi Feiwan turned around stiffly and saw Yun Fuxue walking towards him with a frown on his brow.
Duan Yian followed Yun Fuxue with an indifferent look on his face.
Yun Fuxue stopped a few inches away from Chi Feiwan, her eyes moist, and her voice was ethereal, "Sister Wan, are you saying that I stole your token of recognition?"
Chi Feiwan looked at her eyes filled with tears and didn't know what to say for a moment.
It's just their suspicion.
There is no evidence to prove that Yun Fuxue stole the token of recognition of family.
Yun Fuxue frowned and choked up as she said, "Sister Wan, I didn't steal anything. The token is mine. I've held it since I was a child."
Jiang Hechuan glanced at her and said, "Since things have come to this, let's go find the clan leader and ask for blood recognition."
He thought Yun Fuxue would hesitate and be afraid.
The only thing he didn't expect was that Yun Fuxue nodded without hesitation, "Okay."
Chi Feiwan suppressed his slight surprise and said slowly, "Let's go."
Now that things have come to this, there is only one thing to do.
Yun Fuxue and Jiang Hechuan walked in front.
When Chi Feiwan passed by Duan Yian, he suddenly reached out and held her wrist. His voice was gentle, "Why is your hand red?"
"It's okay." Chi Feiwan wanted to pull his hand away, but Duan Yian didn't reduce his strength.
His voice trembled slightly, "Does it hurt?"
"You're hurting me now." Chi Feiwan frowned and looked at him.
Duan Yian was startled for a moment, then slowly let her go. "Wanwan, after I get the Life and Death Gu, I'll leave this place with you."
"I will leave by myself." Chi Feiwan said coldly.
Duan Yian's eyes were crimson, and his tone was filled with an unprecedented pleading, "Wanwan, please don't abandon me, okay?"
"Who are you showing this affectionate look to?" Chi Feiwan couldn't help but sneer.
"Although I lied to you, my feelings for you are genuine." Duan Yian's eyes darkened, his voice choking slightly. "But think about it carefully. Others gave you pear soup and medicine, gave you happiness and good conversation, but I gave you nothing. I could only stand in the wind and snow thinking of you all night."
Chi Feiwan paused slightly, and the emotions in his body surged like a tide.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she asked, "You stood here all night last night?"
"Yeah." Duan Yian's Adam's apple rolled slightly.
Chi Feiwan was stunned. She thought he had just arrived early this morning.
I didn't expect him to stand here all night.
No wonder he looked so haggard with dark circles under his eyes.
When he saw her chatting with Jiang Hechuan, did he have to use a lot of effort to suppress the urge to go in?
After a long moment, Duan Yian uttered a deep voice, "Every eye you open to others is a door you close to me. I should have understood this long ago, but I still can't let you go."
Chi Feiwan's fingers hanging in his sleeves curled up imperceptibly, and his heart felt like someone was beating a drum, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Duan Yian concealed the loneliness in his eyes, raised the corners of his lips, and said slowly:
"I think after what happened just now, the martial arts competition can't be held. The clan leader should be free. Let's go."
At this moment, Jiang Hechuan, who had walked a few steps, realized that they had not caught up, and turned back and shouted, "Are you still standing there?"
Chi Feiwan said "hmm" woodenly and walked forward.
Duan Yian lowered his eyes to hide his complicated emotions and followed closely.
In less than a cup of tea, they arrived at the main hall.
Yunyougui and his wife Liu walked in hand in hand.
"I heard that you have something to talk to me about. Tell me, what is it?" Yunyougui sat down, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and asked in a calm voice.
Yun Fuxue walked forward slowly, her red eyes flashing, "Daddy, Mommy, I want to recognize my blood relationship with you."
Yun Yougui's heart trembled, "Xue'er, what did you say?"
Liu patted the back of Yun Fuxue's hand gently, and said gently, "Xue'er, has anyone questioned your identity?"
Yun Fuxue shook her head and said firmly:
"It's not others who are questioning my identity, but I am questioning my own. You recognized me just by the jade lock, which is really hasty. Let's do the blood test to prove our relationship."
Liu's face turned pale and she turned to look at Yunyougui.
Yunyougui slammed the table and stood up, shouting angrily, "Nonsense! You are our daughter. If anyone dares to gossip about me again, I will cut off their tongue!"
"Daddy, please just do a blood test to prove my relationship to me. If I am really your daughter, I will never mention this matter again." Yun Fuxue pleaded repeatedly.
After hearing every word Yun Fuxue said, Chi Feiwan felt that her previous concerns were not misplaced.
