Chapter 172: Wu Ji: Sigh, Qian brother is scheming Gu Yue Na again

Qianxunji thought for a moment, feeling that a noble and arrogant woman like Gu Yue Na would absolutely not be threatened by anyone.

Moreover, she didn't have anything she cared about.

If there was anything she cared about, it was simply that Gu Yue Na had taken it upon herself to revive the spirit beasts.

However, this was not enough to make Gu Yue Na sacrifice everything for it.

Therefore, Qianxunji did not intend to threaten Gu Yue Na.

Moreover, he also did not intend to threaten Gu Yue Na.

Although he was a villain, he was now a strong one, and the strong have their own principles.

Furthermore, he already had Bibidong and the others; although Gu Yue Na was extremely beautiful, she was the number one beauty of Douluo.

However, adding one more doesn't make much difference, and losing one doesn't make much less.

Qianxunji gritted his teeth, having already decided in his heart to do a good deed today and heal Gu Yue Na for free.

Thinking this, Qianxunji put his arms around Gu Yue Na's slender waist and said:

"Gu Yue Na, why would you think that? I'm saving you without any conditions; I admire your character, and besides, you're beautiful."

Gu Yue Na: "……"

Gu Yue Na was dumbfounded, and with a face of disbelief she coldly said:

"Nonsense, even if you beat me to death, I wouldn't believe you'd save me unconditionally."

Qianxunji didn't answer; instead, he planned to prove it with action, and thus said:

"Whether you believe it or not, I truly have lustful intentions toward you, wanting you to be my woman, so I will unconditionally save you."

To Qianxunji, Gu Yue Na and the Gods of the Divine Realm stand opposed, making them enemies of the Title and other Divine Abodes.

The enemy of an enemy is a friend.

For this reason, he also had to save Gu Yue Na.

However, he still said that he saved her because he fell in love with her due to her beauty.

As his words fell, Qianxunji extended his index finger and lightly touched Gu Yue Na's glabella.

On his finger, a faint white light appeared, seeping toward Gu Yue Na's glabella.

The next moment, the tormented Gu Yue Na felt a mysterious energy surge into her glabella, flowing toward her soul's surroundings.

"Ah……ah……"

Gu Yue Na's brain screamed in pain, but when the white light flowed in, she instantly felt a coolness deep in her soul.

At the same time, the intense pain in her brain was rapidly subsiding.

"Ah……ah……"

Gu Yue Na was screaming in pain, but whereas before it felt like being pierced by ten thousand steel needles, now it felt like only ten.

Soon, after just three seconds, Gu Yue Na's painful cries ceased, and her distorted features gradually returned to normal.

However, the tremendous evil was still violently trembling, and her body continued to shudder reflexively.

This was because the trembling had lasted too long, her muscles had formed a memory, not yet recovered, so they still twitched reflexively.

Seeing this, Qianxunji decided to see the good deed through, placing his large hand on Gu Yue Na's chest.

The next moment, white light seeped in from her chest, quickly filling her entire body, healing the wounds she had sustained in the recent battle.

This time, healing Gu Yue Na's bodily injuries, Qianxunji persisted for a full ten seconds before completely restoring her body's condition.

Afterwards, he solemnly withdrew his hand and then said:

"All right!"

Gu Yue Na, having been tormented by the excruciating brain pain to the point of wishing she were dead, was now drenched in fragrant sweat.

However, her sweat was instead filled with a fragrance, very pleasant, extremely alluring.

Even those with weak willpower couldn't help but drink Gu Yue Na's sweat.

However, Qianxunji was clearly not among them; he merely gazed heatedly at the beads of sweat on Gu Yue Na's skin, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his throat moved.

"Hah!"

Gu Yue Na felt her brain no longer in excruciating pain, and finally let out a sigh of relief.

Recalling the earlier brain‑splitting pain, her body couldn't help but tremble, and a feeling of lingering fear rose in her heart.

At this moment she decided that, if she were to fight Qianxunji again in the future, she would absolutely not use mental power attacks.

Because, when mental power suffers heavy backlash, it is truly too painful.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, Gu Yue Na let out a coquettish cry, only then realizing she was still held in Qianxunji's arms.

When she was just embraced, her brain was in excruciating pain, her mind not clear, she had no capacity to notice these things, which is understandable.

Now that she has recovered and regained clarity, she cannot continue to be held by Qianxunji.

Thinking this, Gu Yue Na politely said:

"Please let me go, okay?"

Gu Yue Na's politeness stemmed from the fact that Qianxunji could have chosen not to save her, or threatened her to meet some condition, such as demanding she give herself to him.

But Qianxunji not only saved her, he did so unconditionally.

And she, the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue Na, is a person who distinguishes gratitude from grudges; since Qianxunji chose to save her, she naturally ought to be courteous.

"Ah, but holding you feels so comfortable; I wish I could hold you a little longer—what a pity." Qianxunji said, gradually releasing Gu Yue Na.

Gu Yue Na's soul power stirred; her body immediately stepped back a few paces, she fixed her gaze on Qianxunji, opened her mouth, then closed her rosy lips.

Seeing this, Qianxunji decided to advance by retreating, and without a word flew toward Wu Ji and the others.

Gu Yue Na saw this, felt a surge of doubt, wondering, could it be that he just left like that?

After all this effort, Qianxunji defeated her and then saved her—what on earth is the reason?

Gu Yue Na watched Qianxunji's retreating figure, and could no longer suppress the doubt in her heart, she coldly shouted:

"Qianxunji, stop."

Qianxunji heard the words, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Hmph, you finally couldn't help but call me old man, otherwise if you waited a few more seconds, I would have flown away.

Qianxunji stopped his body, turned his back to Gu Yue Na, and said nothing.

If the enemy doesn't move, I don't move; what we're playing is psychological tactics.

Gu Yue Na saw Qianxunji finally stop, but the other party still didn't speak, so she asked:

"Just now, why did you save me unconditionally?"

"You could completely use this to threaten me into promising yourself to me, or perhaps do something else?"

"Hmph!" Qianxunji, with his back to Gu Yue Na, let out a cold snort, and said solemnly:

"What kind of person am I, Qianxunji, how could I be someone who takes advantage of another's danger to extort them?"

"Qian so-and-so has lived his life with integrity and openness; why would I need to do such a thing?"

In the distance, Wu Ji, who was flying toward this side, heard Qianxunji's words, and her body staggered.

She looked at Qianxunji's solemn appearance and his upright tone, and couldn't help wanting to laugh.

If it weren't for a certain incident that had previously happened to her own body, Wu Ji felt she would definitely believe it.

However, she still held back her smile, because she knew Qianxunji was playing a trick on Gu Yue Na.

Thus, the sensible one no longer flew toward Qianxunji, but instead flew down to sit on a large tree below.

Then, with interest, she watched Qianxunji, wanting to see whether Qianxunji could actually succeed in sweet-talking that beauty Gu Yue Na.

Gu Yue Na listened to Qianxunji's words, and her heart gave a jolt.
