Chapter 40: Handsome Man Lying on the Couch (1/2)

Translator: Ruriko

Yun Qi seemed to understand Yun Wu’s feeling when he saw Yun Wu’s clenched fists and loss expression.

”Girl, don’t put too much pressure on yourself. As you’ve been strong enough to kill a third-level evil beast with your strength in this age, you are pretty good.”

”Pretty good?”

Yun Wu grinned coldly and a chill flashed across her eyes, ”For the enemy who wants my life, I am no different from an ant. I have died once. Since God has given me the chance to rebirth, I will cherish my life and won’t let anybody determine my fate.”

Speaking of this, Yun Wu raised her eyes. She looked at Yun Qi’s shocked eyes and said coldly, ”So, don't judge me by my age and strength. It is just an excuse for keeping still. I don't want to be such a person.”

In the eyes of those who wanted her life, her current strength was not strong enough.

She didn't need to give herself any excuses. She was really too weak, which was the truth.

However, these words made Yun Qi speechless.

Died once?

Did she mean the thing Yun Qing’er, Yun Xing’er and Yun Lingshui did to her last time?

Or the time when she was in the forbidden area?

Or...the event that she was poisoned more than ten years ago?

Anyway, she had made it clear that the person who wanted her life must not be a big shot.

Was that the reason why she hid her strength?

Yun Qi laughed happily after a while, with a trace of appreciation in his eyes, ”Girl, you are really different. You will certainly stand on the high position that everyone respects based on such belief...”

The old man knew very well that this girl was unusual. He didn't ask more as she showed her strong will.

He just needed to understand her in his heart.

And he knew that the day she presented her strength in front of him must be her strongest day, when she accepted him as her grandfather and accept the whole Yun Family.

Soon, they arrived at the door of Yun Family.

”Grandpa, since I was so badly injured this time, shouldn’t I need to lie quietly for a month or two?” Suddenly, Yun Wu looked at Yun Qi with a light smile and asked.

Yun Qi’s eyes were full of laughter. This girl must want to go somewhere without being noticed!

Was that a sign of trust in him?

”Give me a night, and I'll let Yun Wu ‘recover’ on bed in Ning Yard for two months.”

Yun Wu laughed. For the first time, she felt that it was not bad to have such a “helper”.

...

Yun Qing’er “won” the championship, so the Life Flower and rewards were sent to Yun House.

For Yun Wu, it was too easy to get all things in Yun Family.

She needed Growing Grass besides Life Flower.

Long Qinxie told her that the Growing Grass was in the middle ridge of Evil Beast Forest at the intersection of the three kingdoms.

She had checked Continental Map before and remembered the route.

If the journey to Evil Beast Forest went smoothly, it would take at least a month or so to get back the Growing Grass.

If she disappeared suddenly, it would inevitably arouse suspicion from the empress and the emperor. It was absolutely fool to put herself in the light.

So she asked Yun Qi to help.

After one night, when Yun Wu looked at a ”Yun Wu” exactly like her, she suddenly understood why Yun Qi said that he needed a night.

He must make some efforts and use some special means to make this Yun Wu.

The next day!

At daybreak, a small figure appeared quietly in the backyard of Yun House. Soon, the figure disappeared silently at the end of the street.

Yun Wu rode a horse in men's clothes and went out of the city as soon as city door opened.

This horse was quick as Yun Wu’s wish.

But...

Yun Wu neglected that although she had learned to ride a horse in her previous life, she never really had a long journey by riding a horse.

An hour later, she felt a sharp ache on buttocks, so she had to stop by the roadside.

”Damn it, I should buy a carriage,” Yun Wu rubbed her painful buttocks, frowning.

In fact, she was rich enough to buy a flying beast since she had robbed the whole treasure house.

But that was too high-profile.

She thought carriage was too slow. So she chose the beast horse.

Beast horse was fast and low-key, but it really let her buttocks suffer.

In the distance, there was a roar of beasts suddenly came with dust swirling in the air.

Yun Wu looked up to the dim dust.

Two white unicorns pulling a luxury carriage came at a high speed and stopped in front of her in the twinkling of an eye.

The dust blurred her eyes.

At the same moment, her horse seemed to be shocked, roared, and ran away quickly.

”Oops... Bah...” Yun Wu wanted to chase her horse, but as soon as she opened mouth, she inhaled a lot of dust.

In the blink of an eye, the horse had disappeared. There was no way for Yun Wu to catch up with it.

On the roadside, there was a luxurious carriage. The two white unicorns raised their heads proudly and snorted at Yun Wu disdainfully.

It showed a strong sense of contempt.

Yun Wu’s mood suddenly became bad to the extreme.

Yun Wu put on a long face, and walked up to the carriage on the roadside.
