The man who had just destroyed Na Nali's Dark Bell was none other than the Spirit PaG.o.da Chairman, Qiangu Dongfeng.
If Tang Wulin were still here, he would immediately understand why Gu Yuena had told him to run.
”We're just going to let her go? She's already been severely wounded; I'm sure I'll be able to chase her down and take care of her,” the white-robed young man said in an urgent manner.
Qiangu Dongfeng furrowed his brows, and scolded, ”You're in your early thirties already; why are you still so reckless? Do you think the Holy Spirit Cult is that easy to deal with? How can you be sure that there aren't any other Holy Spirit Cult powerful beings nearby? These Evil Soul Masters have a myriad of unpredictable abilities, and you could easily fall prey to one of them. A wise man would never place himself in unknown peril. Do you know who you are? You're far too important to be risking your life hunting down these filthy beings who can only live in the darkness!”
Qiangu Zhangting lowered his head in a slightly embarra.s.sed manner upon hearing this. ”You're right, Grandfather. It's a good thing that Nana identified those two to be members of the Holy Spirit Cult. Otherwise, I would've still been completely oblivious.”
Qiangu Dongfeng turned to Gu Yuena, and he immediately adopted a much warmer expression. ”Are you alright, Na'er?”
Gu Yuena nodded in response. ”Her soundwave attacks are very powerful and unpredictable. It's a good thing that Zhangting was with me; I wouldn't have been able to take her on by myself.”
Qiangu Zhangting was instantly reinvigorated upon receiving a compliment from the woman of his desires. ”If she hadn't run away so quickly, I would've taken her down there and then!”
Qiangu Dongfeng said, ”There must be a reason why powerful beings of the Holy Spirit Cult have suddenly appeared in Heaven Dou City. Don't go to Skysea City for now; I fear that the Holy Spirit Cult will target you after what happened just now. Let's go back to the headquarters.”
Qiangu Zhangting turned to Gu Yuena, and only after she nodded to accept this arrangement did he also agree with a smile. He was definitely in support of not going to Skysea City. The Spirit PaG.o.da headquarters was his territory, and it was the place where he would be able to interact with Gu Yuena the most.
He had fallen in love with the cold and exquisitely beautiful Gu Yuena from the moment that he first saw her. Not only was she absolutely stunning, she had beauty and apt.i.tude in equal measure. Even the picky Qiangu Dongfeng had nothing but praise for her, and she was also the disciple of Vice-chairman Leng Yaozhu, so she was a perfect match for her regardless of whether it was in ability, status, or looks. They were truly a match made in heaven.
Gu Yuena cast a glance in the direction that Tang Wulin had fled toward, seemingly in an absentminded manner, then departed from the train station with Qiangu Dongfeng and Qiangu Zhangting.
Tang Wulin flew very quickly, and he was out of the train station after just a few flaps of his wings.
Ever since Heaven Dou City had been struck by the terror attack, the defenses here had become far tighter, and even after he had flown out of the train station, he didn't dare to delay. Na Nali had a way to track him down, so he definitely couldn't afford to give her a chance.
Thankfully, Heaven Dou City was the territory of the Tang Sect, and it only took him less than 20 seconds to find one of the secret Tang Sect buildings.
He quickly entered the elevator in the building and descended underground. Surely Na Nali wouldn't be able to track him down once he was 500 meters underground!
On top of that, there was a top-tier powerful being in the underground world of the Tang Sect, so it would actually be greatly welcomed if Na Nali were to somehow come after him here.
As the elevator descended, Tang Wulin wasn't thinking about the perilous ordeal he had just endured. Instead, he was thinking about Gu Yuena.
She was still so beautiful, and when he saw the barely detectable change in expression on her face, he had already sensed what she was going to do.
This was like a spiritual connection; there was no need for verbal communication for them to understand each other's intentions.
Gu Yuena had been very smart not to directly attack Na Nali. Instead, her attack had fallen upon him, and that had confused Na Nali.
Otherwise, if she had attacked Na Nali right away, she may have guessed Gu Yuena's intentions, which would lead to her keeping an even tighter grasp on Tang Wulin.
At the very least, the fact that she had attacked Tang Wulin instead forced Na Nali to think about the situation, and the rest of the attacks were all designed to hold down Na Nali, thereby creating an opportunity for Tang Wulin to escape.
It was undoubtedly the case that the white-robed young man was a powerful being from the Spirit PaG.o.da, and Gu Yuena couldn't expose her relations.h.i.+p with Tang Wulin in his presence. Under the volatile circ.u.mstances, Gu Yuena had controlled the situation to an extremely minute degree. She had helped Tang Wulin escape from his dire situation without arousing the suspicion of the white-robed young man, and everything had been executed brilliantly.
However, Tang Wulin couldn't help but feel uncomfortable when he saw her with that white-robed young man, especially when he was clearly pursuing her.
It was just as Na Nali had said; he was facing a rival in love.
The thought of this struck Tang Wulin with a sour feeling. Why couldn't Gu Yue tell him what her situation was like? Just what had happened between her and Na'er?
