Chapter 1319

otherwise, an ordinary person would never find this place.

Yuan Chengzhi had also only found this place by accident by following his pet monkey.

More accurately, he relied on his protagonist halo to obtain the opportunity left behind by Xia Xueyi.

Gu Hanyuan pointed to the cave entrance in front and said:

"Xia Xueyi is inside."

He Hongyao's expression became excited upon hearing this.

But it was also tinged with a trace of hesitation.

If it had been before today,

she would have entered without hesitation.

But now, whenever she thought of Gu Hanyuan by her side,

she was filled with conflicting emotions.

After a long while, He Hongyao finally firmed her conviction.

No matter what, she had to see Xia Xueyi one more time.

Alive, she wanted to see the person; dead, she wanted to see the corpse.

The two entered the cave.

What met their eyes was a grave made of sand and earth.

A wooden plaque was stuck on the grave, on which was written: "Grave of the Golden Snake Gentleman Xia Xueyi, respectfully erected by Yuan Chengzhi."

Because Yuan Chengzhi had not formed a bond with Wen Qingqing and brought her here,

Xia Xueyi's grave still appeared somewhat hasty.

But He Hongyao's expression became excited.

At this moment, she forgot about Gu Hanyuan by her side.

She also forgot about the things Gu Hanyuan had done to her.

Even the feelings that were faintly wavering were thrown to the back of her mind at this moment.

She rushed to the grave and began to dig at the sand and earth with her hands like a madwoman.

She shouted hysterically:

"I don't believe it! Xia Xueyi, you must be lying to me again!"

Her beautiful face was full of madness, which was regrettable.

Just at this moment, He Hongyao's hands were grabbed.

She looked with bloodshot eyes at Gu Hanyuan, who was stopping her.

She said through gritted teeth:

"Are you going to stop me too?"

Gu Hanyuan shook his head and sighed lightly:

"I just cannot bear to see your hands ruined here."

He Hongyao heard the heartache implied in Gu Hanyuan's words.

Her heart shook violently.

Her expression calmed down instantly.

She silently shed tears and whispered:

"I don't believe Xia Xueyi died just like that."

"I will help you."

Gu Hanyuan's gentle voice reached He Hongyao's ears.

Causing her to look up in surprise.

What met her eyes was the same gentle smile as always.

Warmth surged in He Hongyao's heart.

She stared at Gu Hanyuan in a daze.

Suddenly, she thought inexplicably:

"Why wasn't it Young Master Gu that I met back then?"
