Chapter 1059

Without permission, he had branded her with the label of Gu Gu Hanyuan's woman.

As for Li Qiu's thoughts.

Wu Wu Xingyun couldn't care less.

Therefore, upon hearing Mezzang Epang invite the two women to become his consorts.

It was equivalent to slapping Gu Gu Hanyuan in the face.

How could Wu Wu Xingyun possibly tolerate that.

She directly gave Mezzang Epang a complete set of "Life-and-Death... Talismans."

The "Life-and-Death Talismans" on the people from the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands mostly only had three marks.

Yet they had already been tormented to a state worse than death.

Let alone Mezzang Epang, who had taken a complete "Life-and-Death Talisman."

Within moments, he had clawed himself into a bloody, mangled mess.

Taking out the Tiger Tally to beg for mercy only earned him a cold, indifferent glance from Wu Wu Xingyun.

Until he scratched and clawed himself to death.

Seeing this, Li Qiu gained an even deeper understanding of the current Wu Wu Xingyun.

Her heart was filled entirely with Gu Gu Hanyuan.

Anything related to Gu Gu Hanyuan.

Could greatly stimulate her.

Although the relationship between the two had already improved now.

The desire to win or lose after contending for so many years was not so easily forgotten.

Sure enough.

Wu Wu Xingyun subtly glared at Li Qiu.

Li Qiu returned a triumphant look.

Gu Gu Hanyuan watched the two women's overt and covert rivalry with some amusement.

With a gentle expression, he praised Wu Wu Xingyun:

"The Princess has done very well."

Upon hearing Gu Gu Hanyuan's praise.

Wu Wu Xingyun's anger instantly turned to joy.

That exquisitely beautiful face bloomed like a flower with a smile.

Even the dot of cinnabar between her brows seemed to come alive.

It was a feeling different from when she had reverted to a child and been coaxed like a little girl.

It was the true feeling of being in love.

Full of girlish sentiment.

No matter how many foolish things she had done.

No matter how arduous the process.

No matter how unknown the outcome.

A word of affirmation.

A word of praise.

A word of caring greeting.

Could make her heart surge.

Wu Wu Xingyun's clear, cold beautiful eyes shimmered with a moving light.

With a shy, faint smile, she said:

"I only did some trivial things; how could it compare to Young Master Gu's hard work?"

Hearing this, Gu Gu Hanyuan couldn't help but feel a strange twinge in his heart.

To speak of hard work, it was indeed hard work.

Fighting two Land Immortals was properly quite taxing.

But afterward, having "intimate battles" separately with Rou Jing, Li Li Qinglu, and Ye Ye Erniang.

Somehow didn't quite live up to Wu Wu Xingyun's word "hard work."

Although he had indeed exerted effort in both cases.

Gu Gu Hanyuan suppressed the strange thoughts.

In a gentle voice, he said:

"With the Tiger Tally in hand, leave the rest to me. The Princess may return to Shi Qingfeng Pavilion and await news."

Wu Wu Xingyun was stunned upon hearing this.

She had been sent away by Gu Gu Hanyuan once before.

And now they were to part again.

How could she bear to part.

Remembering how she used to act coquettishly when pretending to be a little girl.

She slightly tilted up her delicate head.

With a pitiful look, she said:

"Can't I go along with Young Master Gu?"

Seeing this, Gu Gu Hanyuan couldn't help but catch his breath.

Back then, Wu Wu Xingyun's appearance, as if carved from pink jade, had already been impossible for him to refuse.

Now, grown into a figure of such exquisite, matchless beauty, acting coquettishly like this—

—anyone watching would feel their mind go blank.

Even Li Qiu at his side lost himself for a moment.

He thought to himself:

"If Big Senior Sister had this kind of trick back then, she wouldn't have bothered fighting over Wu Yazi."

Fortunately, Gu Gu Hanyuan still had his wits about him.

Coming back to his senses, he said sternly:

"The palace is in utter chaos; the Princess still needs to go and pacify it."

Wu Wu Xingyun hesitated:

"But…"

The task of pacifying the palace was being handled by the real Li Li Qinglu.

What use was she, the fake Princess?

She was even more reluctant to leave.

Now, regarding the matter of Wu Wu Xingyun, Li Qiu—

—stood in the same camp as Gu Gu Hanyuan.

Seeing this, she held back a laugh and played along:

"If Li Qinglu is worried, this concubine shall accompany Young Master Gu on the trip."

Wu Wu Xingyun shot Li Qiu an annoyed glare.

Yet she could find no suitable reason to stay.

After hesitating for a long while,

she could only say, wronged:

"Th-then… I'll be counting on you, Imperial Grandmother."

Wu Wu Xingyun felt she'd suffered a great loss.

Not only had she failed to stay by Gu Gu Hanyuan's side,

she had also been forced to address Li Qiu as "Imperial Grandmother."

Li Qiu nearly laughed out loud at the words.

Having taken advantage of Wu Wu Xingyun,

she laughed coquettishly, her words laden with meaning:

"Don't worry. This concubine will surely bring the grandson-in-law back safe and sound to her precious granddaughter."
