Chapter 625

The greater the power, the greater the effect.

Although Gu Hanyuan's artistic conception of sorrow was not considered strong,

his internal power was incomparably tyrannical.

After a single strike,

the two women saw the sun hanging high above.

The crowd outside the ruins had still been busy digging.

After the earth-shattering explosion,

those close to the center of the blast were sent flying directly.

Those further away were also struck by flying rocks, leaving them bloodied and bruised.

Fortunately, under the tyrannical power of "Sorrow Without Reason," those rocks were all smashed to pieces.

Otherwise, there would have been heavy casualties on the spot.

The Fire-Gong Monk had the "Diamond Indestructible Divine Art" to protect his body,

and he was standing relatively close.

He was also the first to discover the three of them.

Seeing Zhao Min safe and sound,

he shouted in surprise:

"Princess!"

But immediately after, he saw Gu Hanyuan beside Zhao Min.

Thinking Zhao Min had been taken hostage,

he said vigilantly:

"Gu Hanyuan, release the Princess at once!"

However, Gu Hanyuan had no intention of holding Zhao Min hostage at all.

He gave her a light pat on the back,

which caused her to blush and glare back at him.

But having already experienced more intimate contact,

the level of shyness from being patted like this was actually reduced quite a bit.

She just glared at Gu Hanyuan for a moment before turning to walk toward the Mongol Yuan side.

She ordered sternly:

"Gather everyone, we are retreating."

Although the Fire-Gong Monk and the others were confused,

Zhao Min being safe and sound was the greatest piece of good news.

At least they would not be held accountable by Prince Ruyang.

Without any thought of questioning, they went to gather the crowd as instructed.

Zhao Min looked back at Gu Hanyuan.

With a face of infinite beauty and a beaming smile, she said:

"Young Master Gu, thank you for saving my life. We shall meet again."

Gu Hanyuan chuckled lightly:

"Miss Zhao, don't let me catch you again next time, otherwise I will have to collect interest from you again."

Only then did Zhao Min realize the meaning behind Gu Hanyuan patting her again earlier.

This behavior, which felt like a promise,

actually made her back feel faintly hot.

She glared at Gu Hanyuan with a mix of light reproach and anger.

"Young Master Gu, don't fall into this young lady's hands. Otherwise, I will definitely pay you back double."

If it were before this,

she certainly would not have provoked him at a time like this.

But after what happened in the ruins,

Zhao Min had less fear,

and more of a sense of closeness.

That was why she had such provocative words with little hostility.

Upon hearing this, Gu Hanyuan just chuckled:

"I shall wait and see." ===== CHAPTER 627 =====
