Chapter 82: 082 What is your relationship?
Translator: 549690339
In a villa outside Ping County city, Chu Xiyue was standing in a courtyard under a phoenix tree, draped in a white cloak, looking at the distant mountains with a furrowed brow.
Her ever-present sword was not in her hands.
After a long while, a hint of confusion flashed across her eyes as she mumbled,
“Aunt, how do I counter that strike?”
Behind her stood a woman in a black cloak, who had seemingly appeared out of nowhere.
The woman said indifferently, “You must find the answer yourself.”
As she said this, she vanished into thin air.
Soon after, the sound of a breaking wind echoed through, and a man landed in the courtyard, standing not far off, and said with a bow, “Miss Chu, I apologize for my intrusion.”
“You?”
With a sharp glance, Chu Xiyue instinctively reached for her sword but found nothing.
It was then that she realized she hadn’t brought her sword with her today.
The man was none other than Gu Yang, who had dealt her a severe blow a few days prior.
Over the past few days, while nursing her wounds, she pondered how she might counter that strike.
But she was still without a clue.
Now that this man suddenly appeared before her, she could not help but reveal her hostility, “What do you want?”
Gu Yang said, “I came here to ask you a favor.”
“A favor?”
Chu Xiyue was stunned, she never expected him to say something like that.
A few days ago, he had brutally injured her without rhyme or reason. Despite such grudge, he came to her and asked for her help.
Instinctively she asked, “What favor?”
Gu Yang said, “Some of my friends have been held captive by Liu Zhe from the Liu family. I am unable to deal with this situation by myself, so I need your help. ”
In the end, he chose to ask Chu Xiyue for assistance.
With his current strength, he didn’t need to fear Liu Zhe, the unknown Second
Grade.
However, he didn’t want to complicate matters. During the previous simulation, Su Qingzhen and the others were successfully rescued with the help of Chu Xiyue and Wu Xingyun.
So, he decided to follow the same path as the simulation.
Otherwise, going in alone might trigger unpredictable variables.
He had fallen into such traps more than once before, and this time he was determined to learn his lesson.
After all, the safety of Su Qingzhen and the others was of utmost importance.
Chu Xiyue had a strange feeling.
If someone she had defeated came to ask her for help, she would have ignored them outright.
However, the man before her had recently dealt her, her first-ever defeat. His decision to reach out to her was a form of recognition.
She agreed without a second thought, “Alright!”
“How can I miss such an occasion.”
At this point, a bright voice came from the doorway, it was Wu Xingyun. He had come to find Chu Xiyue and had overheard their conversation, thus he volunteered himself.
