Chapter 85: Di Yun, You Wouldn't Want Qi Fang's Efforts to Go to Waste, Would You?

~8 min read 1,500 words

After returning to the Ling Mansion, Gu Gu Hanyuan did not go to see Ling Ling Tuisi, who was searching for him in anxiety, but went straight to the dungeon.

Although the Ling Mansion’s dungeon was heavily guarded, it could not even trap Ding Ding Dian, let alone Gu Gu Hanyuan, who possessed peerless light-body technique.

He easily snuck into the dungeon without alerting anyone.

After entering the dungeon, he quickly found the place where Ding Ding Dian and Di Yun were imprisoned.

Ding Ding Dian’s eyes were hollow, looking at the only window in the cell.

Moonlight spilled onto him from the gap in the window, exposing his miserable state to Gu Gu Hanyuan and Di Yun.

The wounds on his shoulders and fingers had been bandaged to stop the bleeding, but the bloodstains on his body had dyed his white inner garment into a blood-stained robe.

After the fresh blood had congealed, dark red blood clots covered him.

Di Yun was looking at Ding Ding Dian with a troubled expression, because he had remained in this state for an entire day.

He did not eat, did not speak, and just kept staring blankly.

No matter how Di Yun called out, it was useless.

"Are you trying to look at that pot of chrysanthemums? I threw it away."

Gu Gu Hanyuan’s mocking voice came.

Ding Ding Dian reacted, looking at Gu Gu Hanyuan with full hatred.

He was not only hit by what happened last night, but he had also not been able to see his spiritual sustenance, that pot of chrysanthemums, all day, nor had he been able to hear Ling Ling Shuanghua’s flute playing.

"By the way, you haven't heard the flute playing either, right? Ling Shuanghua is playing a solo for me."

It was a pity that Ding Ding Dian could not understand these words and still looked at Gu Gu Hanyuan with hatred.

Gu Gu Hanyuan felt a bit bored.

"Incompetent fool. Ling Shuanghua had a very good time last night, and you don't need to worry about her in the future. Just be your Hero Ding."

Gu Gu Hanyuan felt satisfied only after seeing Ding Ding Dian’s chest heave violently, looking like he was about to be angered to death.

Di Yun on the side did not understand what was going on, after all, Ding Ding Dian had not explained to him what had happened last night.

"You must be Di Yun, right? Qi Fang entrusted me to save you."

"Junior Sister! How is she? Is she okay?"

Di Yun grabbed the iron bars of the cell door excitedly when he heard Gu Gu Hanyuan mention Qi Fang.

"Qi Fang married Wan Gui and gave birth to a daughter for him."

Di Yun became dejected after hearing Gu Gu Hanyuan’s words.

Gu Gu Hanyuan added another blow.

"By the way, Wan Gui gave Qi Fang to me for the sake of the treasure."

Di Yun was stunned. Although he was sad to hear the news of his Junior Sister getting married just now, he at least knew she was fine, and with Di Yun’s kind nature, he still felt relieved.

However, the sudden bolt from the blue left him at a loss.

"Junior Sister was given to you by Wan Gui?"

Di Yun stared fixedly at Gu Gu Hanyuan.

"Otherwise, why would I listen to her request to save you?"

Gu Gu Hanyuan teased.

"I don't need you to save me!"

Di Yun shouted in a breakdown.

"That’s not up to you."

Gu Gu Hanyuan easily opened the cell door with sword qi and grabbed Di Yun.

"Di Yun, you wouldn't want Qi Fang's efforts to go to waste, would you? After all, she satisfied me very much."

Di Yun had no reaction, becoming exactly the same as Ding Ding Dian before.

Gu Gu Hanyuan did not care and left with Di Yun.

Before leaving, he dropped a sentence.

"I will take Ling Shuanghua away. No need to wait."

Ding Ding Dian’s eyes were dim as he watched Gu Gu Hanyuan leave the dungeon.

Gu Gu Hanyuan took Di Yun and flew over walls and roofs out of Jiangling City.

He stopped at a small town and headed straight for a certain place.

There, a bonfire was bright, and dozens of people were sitting in a circle drinking and eating meat.

The leader was none other than the Blood Saber Ancestor, whom Gu Gu Hanyuan had spared last night.

The Blood Saber Ancestor was drinking happily, and when he saw Gu Gu Hanyuan descend from the sky, the wine in his mouth sprayed out directly.

He vigilantly picked up his blood saber and focused on defense.

Although he had been spared by Gu Gu Hanyuan last night, he had suddenly come looking for him today, and the Blood Saber Ancestor felt uneasy.

"Your Excellency Brother Wutian, what is the purpose of your visit?"

Although terrified and vigilant, the Blood Saber Ancestor still asked respectfully.

"Blood Saber Ancestor, I have come to deliver a disciple to you."

After hearing Gu Gu Hanyuan’s words, the Blood Saber Ancestor noticed Di Yun, who was being held in his hand.

"Is this the kid Your Excellency Brother Wutian is talking about?"

"This kid is the most suitable for learning the 'Blood Saber Manual'. I see that you two are fated, so I brought him to you."

Gu Gu Hanyuan’s expression was subtle; there was indeed a fated connection between Di Yun and the Blood Knife Ancestor, though it was a twisted one.

Although the Blood Saber Ancestor was a villain, he was uniquely good to Di Yun.

"Many thanks, Lord Brother Wutian. Since that is the case, I will accept this disciple."

No matter how much the Blood Saber Ancestor doubted Gu Gu Hanyuan’s purpose, he dared not refuse.

"Haha, you won't regret it. Educate him well. I am leaving."

Gu Gu Hanyuan disappeared before the Blood Saber Ancestor’s eyes, shocking him once again.

The Blood Saber Ancestor’s eyes flickered; he really couldn't understand Gu Gu Hanyuan’s purpose. Even if he were arranging a mole, what would be the point? He had no ability to resist at all.

Seeing Di Yun’s eyes were gray and lifeless, as if he had lost his faith, the Blood Saber Ancestor didn't care and stepped forward to examine his bones.

Before long, the Blood Saber Ancestor showed a look of surprise, because Di Yun was indeed the most suitable candidate to learn the 'Blood Saber Manual'.

Gu Gu Hanyuan didn't care what kind of development the Blood Saber Ancestor and Di Yun would have later; it was just a casual move anyway.

With Qi Fang in hand, Di Yun could not turn the sky over.

Gu Gu Hanyuan returned to the Ling Mansion, and before he even got close to Ling Ling Shuanghua’s boudoir, he heard voices.

"Ling Shuanghua, let me take you away."

It turned out that Ding Ding Dian had run outside Ling Ling Shuanghua’s room to persuade her to leave with him.

Heh, now you want to take Ling Ling Shuanghua away? What were you doing earlier?

Gu Gu Hanyuan hid in the shadows, listening to the two talking with disdain.

"I'm sorry, Brother Ding, I can no longer go with you."

Ling Ling Shuanghua wavered for a moment, but still refused.

In her heart, there was the thought of "It's already too late, why did you come now?"

"Ling Shuanghua, I know Brother Wutian forced you, I won't mind, let me take you away."

Ding Ding Dian didn't expect Ling Ling Shuanghua to choose to refuse, but he still tried hard to persuade her.

"Brother Ding, you cannot resist Brother Wutian. Even if we escape, where can we go? Besides, my father won't agree to us being together, and my father is also held in his hands. I have also sworn that I will not see you, let alone marry you."

Ling Ling Shuanghua was very calm. After spending a night together, she had an understanding of Gu Gu Hanyuan and didn't think Ding Ding Dian had the ability to resist.

And these words hit Ding Ding Dian’s weak spot. He and Ling Ling Tuisi had a deep hatred; unless he handed over the secret of the treasure, it was impossible for the two to reconcile, but this was exactly what Ding Ding Dian could not do.

Seeing Ding Ding Dian silent, Ling Ling Shuanghua knew he was still that same Brother Ding, and there was no future for the two.

"Brother Ding, go. Don't come back. Brother Wutian doesn't know when he will return, and it will be dangerous if you continue to stay here."

"Ling Shuanghua, wait for me, I will definitely save you."

Ding Ding Dian gritted his teeth and made a promise that could never be fulfilled.

Ling Ling Shuanghua lowered her eyes and did not respond.

Ding Ding Dian finally left, not returning to that dungeon, but escaping directly from the Ling Mansion.
