Chapter 658: The Days of Running Away From Home Are Over

The result is great.

The exorcism was successful!

"Thank you, Brother Gu."

Mu Qingyu's weak and pale voice rang out.

Gu Heng snapped out of his thoughts and turned to look at her.

The little fox girl was as weak as a candle in the wind, as if she could collapse at the slightest breeze. There was no way around it; good medicine tastes bitter, and the process of exorcising evil spirits was bound to be very uncomfortable. But the evil spirit that had been causing her so much trouble had been driven out, and things would only get better from here on out!

From now on, she won't need to worry so much; she can eat and drink as she pleases.

"It was this thing that took over your body..." Mu Luolan had just stood up when she was terrified. When the so-called "True Spirit of the Fox Emperor" was forced out, she had no ability to resist at all and knelt down on the spot!

That pressure was too great; it came from within one's bloodline, but it was by no means a benevolent force.

But Mu Luolan can be certain.

That's not the "True Spirit of the Fox Emperor"!

The Celestial Fox Emperor was their ancestor, how could their ancestor be such an evil and wicked person?

It must be that evil spirits have deceived them, lurking in the bloodline of their race, constantly mutilating the pride of their fox clan and polluting their bloodline!

But now it has finally been erased.

"Senior, thank you so much for saving Qingyu's life!"

Mu Luolan raised her eyes, her gaze fixed intently on Gu Heng, unblinking, filled with fervor and admiration! This is a master, an absolute master!

Not to mention the precious medicine he took out, when that evil fox shadow appeared, she was forced to kneel on the ground, but Gu Heng didn't move an inch and suppressed it with ease!

"I promised to help Miss Qingyu, so I will. Don't get agitated."

Gu Heng always kept his promises. Anyway, exorcising evil spirits wasn't difficult. The difficult part was for Mu Qingyu, who was the one being exorcised.

"Hehe, did I say something wrong? Brother Gu is really amazing!"

Mu Qingyu stood with her hands on her hips, her tail swaying from side to side, her face full of smugness that said, "Everyone said I wouldn't be fooled." Mu Luolan was already impressed. She never expected that Mu Qingyu's accidental runaway would lead to her actually encountering such an unknown master!

No one has this luck.

In the Lesser Mystic Heaven Realm, finding an alchemist more skilled than Immortal Venerable Bai Yu would be impossible. But who can say that the "Brother Gu" mentioned by Mu Qingyu is definitely from the Lesser Mystic Heaven Realm?

Perhaps he came from another world.

Although currently only the Xuantian Realm borders the Lesser Xuantian Realm...

"Alright, take a few days off and that should be enough. I'll be going now if there's nothing else."

Gu Heng didn't plan to stay here; he also had things to do.

"Brother Gu, are you heading to Twilight Moon City next?"

Mu Qingyu asked.

"Yes, the plan remains unchanged."

This little incident didn't affect his continued journey to Twilight Moon City to witness the "forging competition" among immortal-level cultivators, so of course he continued on his way.

He didn't want to linger any longer, lest he arrive only to find the competition over, leaving him with nothing to show for it—wouldn't that be a huge loss?

"Alright, I'll go with you!"

Mu Qingyu is also a fox spirit with no sense of boundaries, and she directly tried to get close to Gu Heng.

Although she had only known Gu Heng for less than two days, she already felt that she and Gu Heng were quite familiar with each other. Moreover, he was her savior. To put it more broadly, he was a mysterious expert and alchemy master whom the entire Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox Clan should respect and thank!

"You're going to Twilight City too?"

Gu Heng raised an eyebrow.

Could it be that this little fox spirit has become attached to him?

He wasn't narcissistic; he knew his own worth perfectly well. This fox spirit's status was definitely not low, and besides, she had run away from home, and the fox clan, which looked like they were not to be trifled with, was looking for her everywhere. Helping Mu Qingyu this time didn't mean he had to get entangled with her.

"Hehe, to be honest, I live in Twilight City, and I can go back now."

Mu Qingyu smiled.

Now that the trouble with the "Fox Emperor's True Spirit" has been resolved, the so-called marriage proposal put forward by Immortal Venerable Baiyu can naturally be nullified!

The Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan had no choice but to accept the marriage because only the White Feather Immortal Venerable could suppress the "curse" within them, leaving them at the mercy of others.

but now.

Mu Qingyu was cured by Gu Heng.

Now the Nine-Tailed Immortal Venerable no longer has to be caught in a dilemma, and Mu Qingyu no longer has to run away from home to escape the marriage!

"Hmm, that works too, it'll be good to have company on the road."

Since Mu Qingyu is going home and won't continue running away from home, it's fine to take her with us.

At least I don't have to worry about being misunderstood, like he had ill intentions and kidnapped a fox girl, and then I'd be chased down or something... Besides.

Mu Qingyu lives in Muyue City. She's familiar with the place and the people there. Wouldn't it be more convenient to have her guide us?

Now she was shaking her arm, and Gu Heng sniffed it, finding that Mu Qingyu smelled nice today.

Smells good.

Since that's the case, I'll reluctantly bring her along!

Maybe if you get bored on the way, you can pinch her fox tail and play with it.

"Thank you, Brother Gu! Then, Sister Luo Lan, I'll be going now!"

Mu Qingyu readily agreed and, without hesitation, greeted Mu Luolan and set off.

"Be careful on the road... Do we really need to be careful?"

As Mu Luolan watched Gu Heng and Mu Qingyu leave Zhaiyue Tower, these words slipped out unconsciously.

But she immediately realized it. This combination...

There's no need to be careful, right?

Others should be careful when they encounter them.
