Hearing this answer, Gu Yu picked her up and said, “We have to know Cheng Xi’s direction now.”
After saying that, Gu Yu stretched out his hand and waited. Yunbao knew what he meant and placed her hand in his palm. After their energies fused, they shot out in all directions. Not long after, a faint light was still shining in Cheng Xi’s current direction.
Yunbao summoned Glutinous Rice Ball and said, “Fourth Uncle, we’ll just sit on
Glutinous Rice Ball. It’ll be much faster than walking.”
Gu Yu tried to stand on it. Glutinous Rice Ball slowly rose into the air and flew forward. This was the first time Gu Yu had experienced the feeling of riding a cloud. He had only seen this method of travel in books.
Through generations, many sorcerers’ ultimate techniques disappeared. The books recorded that a thousand years ago, many sorcerers condensed their energy into clouds and stepped on them to fly between heaven and earth.
Gu Yu asked Yunbao in confusion, “How did you know that you could travel like
Yunbao thought for a moment and replied, “I don’t know either. I think I just know that I can do this.”
Gu Yu did not ask further and quickly let Glutinous Rice Ball travel. He looked at the forest below, afraid that he would miss any traces.
Although Cheng Xi didn’t know about this, she believed that someone would come looking for her. She was pulled down from the sky by Devon. Even if Devon used a spell to protect her, she was still injured. Her body and face were covered in wounds.
The two of them really fell from the sky. Devon could only protect Cheng Xi from being seriously injured, but not himself. There were no good spots on his body, and his wounds were even bleeding.
Cheng Xi, who was watching all of this, was not moved at all. She only wanted to stay away from this beast, but Devon held her hand tightly and did not let go. He even used layers of spells to lock the two of them together.
After Cheng Xi noticed this, she picked up the stone on the ground and threw it at Devon crazily. However, Devon was a sorcerer after all, and his combat strength was not low. Cheng Xi could not beat him at all.
“I don’t know what happened to Gu Yu and Yunbao. I have to save them.” After struggling to no avail, Cheng Xi couldn’t help but curse, “You bastard, why don’t you die!”
“I won’t die. Even if I die, we have to die together.” Devon wiped the blood from his face and smiled.
He took out a bottle of medicine and tried to make Cheng Xi drink it. Cheng Xi knew that this was definitely not a good thing and resisted desperately, refusing to drink it.
This action angered Devon. He pinched Cheng Xi’s mouth and wanted to pour it down, but their hands were still tied together. Cheng Xi easily pushed the bottle out and even spilled half of the medicine.
“You have to drink it,” Devon said anxiously. “As long as you drink it, you won’t be able to leave me for the rest of your life. This is the blood oath I made. I will always protect the person who drinks the potion, but as long as you leave, you will suffer the pain of ten thousand arrows piercing your heart.”
The more Devon spoke, the more excited he became. He grabbed Cheng Xi and asked her to drink it. When she heard the effect of the medicine, Cheng Xi became even less willing to drink it. The two of them pulled and scattered some more.
Devon could only put away the potion first. If he scattered it all, he would not be able to make Cheng Xi listen. He pulled Cheng Xi and walked forward, as if he knew the direction.
“Where are you taking me?” Cheng Xi asked.
Devon pointed ahead and said, “Beyond the forest in the capital is the sea. After crossing this sea, we can go overseas. At that time, we can be together forever.”
“Stop dreaming!” Cheng Xi said fiercely. “Your assets have been frozen. The Y
Nation government has already found the evidence and is about to arrest you. Even if you run overseas, you will have nothing.”
Hearing Cheng Xi say this, Devon was not sad. He still smiled and said, “I don’t care about these things. As long as you can be by my side, those things are not important. ”
This answer made Cheng Xi unable to take it anymore. She shouted, “Why won’t you let go? What did I do wrong to make you so obsessed?”
Cheng Xi really couldn’t understand. When she was still a student, she respected Devon, a professor, and didn’t do anything overboard at all. Why did Devon insist on her?
However, Cheng Xi was destined to not get an answer because a normal person would not be able to understand the thoughts of someone mentally ill. Devon looked at her affectionately and said, “All of this is because I love you.”
Cheng Xi decided not to ask Devon this question again. Other than disgusting herself, it was useless.
Devon knew that someone would definitely come to look for Cheng Xi. Time was tight, so he pulled her through the entire forest. Cheng Xi was naturally unwilling to walk and pulled against him..
