”It's not good, it's not good! Speak properly, what are you panicking for!” Gu Zhe was calmly holding a bowl of porridge and drinking. He immediately heard the young maid's snort, ”Miss, the young miss has disappeared!”
”He's gone?” Gu Zhe put down the bowl of rice in his hands and followed the young maid quickly to Gu Nala's room. There were no traces of a fight in the room, and everything was the same as usual. Fuxi Qin was still placed on the table.
The young maid opened the red wardrobe at the side and immediately shouted out, ”Master, master, the young lady's clothes are all missing!”
The clothes were missing? Gu Zhe's expression changed instantly and he understood immediately. He had already realized that his daughter did not want to marry Li Yun and was very concerned about the masked man who had challenged her earlier. Could it be that she had packed up her clothes to find that man?
He was so angry that he slammed his fist on the table. A few veins popped out on his forehead. ”I was too used to it. If I knew earlier, I wouldn't have listened to her. What kind of competition arena is this? It really infuriates me.”
”Men, dig three feet into the ground and bring the young mistress back!” Gu Zhe was angered to the point that his face turned green. With a loud roar, all the servants in the house immediately started searching around the house.
Xiang Xue'er stood outside the door, infuriated. She repeatedly locked the old lady outside. She pulled out her Green Edge and made two whizzing sounds as she slashed at the huge red door.
With a loud bang, the door instantly collapsed, startling everyone inside the house to turn their heads to look at the door. Gu Zhe hurriedly came out of the room and looked at the balcony. He immediately noticed Blue City's snow and Xiang Xue'er walking in.
”It's these two scammers again! How dare they trespass!” Without saying anything further, he leapt down from the roof of the second floor, blocking the two's advance. ”Stop right there. You two have guts. How dare you barge into my residence.”
”Misunderstanding, this is definitely a misunderstanding!” Lian Chengxue quickly explained, ”The reason we came here was to tell you that Demon Lord has captured Gunala!”
The Demon Lord captured my daughter? Hearing this, Gu Zhe was immediately angered and became even more hostile towards them. ”Nonsense, how could the Demon Lord appear in the Magic Tower, not to mention …”
”Not to mention what?” Xiang Xue'er's cold eyes stared straight at Gu Zhe, seeing through his unease. ”You're not trying to say that your daughter is still at home, are you? You're the same as Feng Qingyang, you're just a stubborn old man now that the duck has died.”
He stared at Xiang Xue'er and Lian Chengxue in front of him. After a long time, he finally relaxed and said, ”According to what you guys are saying, last night the Devil Lord captured my daughter. But why did he want to capture Gu Na La?”
”Ah, this, this!” ”Actually, this is what happened. Your daughter wanted to elope with her lover, but she met the Demon Lord on the way. He then captured her and told you to bring Fuxi Zither to exchange in the open space outside the village in the evening.”
Fuxi Zither again? What were they trying to do by bringing up Fuxi's story again and again? He turned around and walked into the lobby. ”I think it's necessary for you to explain everything to me clearly.”
Lian Chengxue and Xiang Xue looked at each other before nodding and following behind him. After explaining everything, Gu Zhe looked at the two of them doubtfully and said, ”According to what you have said, we need to gather the ancient Five Divine Artifacts in order to be able to resist the growth of the demon world.”
”Indeed!” Xiang Xue'er answered with certainty, ”I met with the ancestor of Fuxi's zither before. The request she gave us was that she would only be willing to help us if the patriarch agreed. But this Demon Lord actually also wants to snatch Fuxi's zither. This is truly troublesome!”
”If that's really the case, then Fuxi's zither definitely cannot be handed over to the Demon Lord!” Gu Zhe's eyes sparkled, but facing his own daughter's life, even the head of his family would have a hard time deciding.
