"Kuniang?" Xu Zun was overjoyed and hurriedly ran to Kuniang and asked, "You...are you awake? Are you okay? How are your injuries?"
Xu Zun was so excited that he didn't know what to do. He stretched out his hand for a long time, but he didn't know where to touch it.
For the first time, there was no coldness in Ku Niang's eyes, instead there was a sense of tenderness.
"I promise to protect you for three months," Ku Niang said suddenly, "before the time comes, if you go to the East China Sea, I will go too!"
"Ah? You... spoke... you..." Xu Zun was even more surprised and spoke incoherently, "Are you enlightened? Your voice turns out to be so nice...
"Did you know?" Xu Zun introduced hurriedly, "You are now the royal general of the Qilin Guard. You..."
"No need to say it anymore," Ku Niang said lightly, "You already said it six times last night..."
"Oh...oh?" Xu Zun finally realized, "You...you can hear everything! So...you also know about Yue Jinglei? For you, I scolded him...
…”
"..." Ku Niang said quietly, "I also heard you singing!"
"This..." Xu Zun blushed for a second, suddenly realized something, and asked quickly, "You... can speak this time? That's great!"
"No," suddenly Ku Niang felt something and hurriedly stretched out a finger to clarify, "I am only talking to you!"
After saying that, Ku Niang suddenly seemed to have changed into a different person. She instantly returned to her robot state, and her eyes suddenly became fierce and deep, and her eyes shone brightly.
ah?
Xu Zun was stunned, but he heard rapid footsteps outside. It turned out that it was Zhao Yu and three others who heard the movement and came to check.
"Oops? Sister Ku Niang..." Ani was the first to shout excitedly, "Are you awake?"
Zhao Yu and Huo Anu were also happy to see Ku Niang standing by the window.
However, Ku Niang remained unresponsive as before, as if everything in this world had nothing to do with her.
"Come on..." Ani was still considerate and immediately helped Ku Niang back to the bed, "You are just right, you still need to have a good rest!
"I'll make you a bowl of ginseng soup today to replenish your body..."
"Oh," Huo Anu clasped his hands and prayed, "It's good now, I'm finally relieved of my worries!"
"Yes," Zhao Yu said with emotion, "Since then, there has been a legend in the world. Ku Niang became a god in one battle!"
"Old Zhao, don't talk nonsense," Xu Zun warned hurriedly, "Kuniang has always kept a low profile, you don't know that? Where do so many legends come from?"
Only then did Zhao Yu remember that Ku Niang came from the iron coffin and was not easy to show off.
But... Zhao Yu thought in his heart: What's the use of keeping secrets now? Ku Niang is already a general of the Qilin Guard personally appointed by the Queen Mother, and she was even given the sword to protect the country!
Also... so many people in the main hall saw Ku Niang pull out the tracheal tube, and also defeated the three masters one against three.
Now, I’m afraid I can’t keep a low profile even if I want to, right?
Moreover... Zhao Yu was vaguely worried that when the news reached the ears of that demon one day, would the demon come to his door?
It would be fine if she really came from the same school as Master Ku Niang, but if not, it wouldn't be fun.
But...fortunately, there is Yue Jinglei in the Divine Catcher Division. This matter has already been spread in the world. I only hope that Yue Jinglei's name can suppress that demon, right?
Anyway, everyone was relieved when Ku Niang woke up.
It’s not just because Ku Niang’s martial arts are incredible, but after getting along for a long time, everyone has already regarded Ku Niang as a family member, and they don’t want anything to happen to Ku Niang.
Xu Zun was even more like this. He originally planned to let Ku Niang stay in Xu Mansion to recuperate, but Ku Niang's words just now made it clear that she would follow him to the East China Sea.
With Ku Niang accompanying him, Xu Zun naturally felt a little more confident, but he was even more moved.
Although Ku Niang's words were simple, Xu Zun was deeply touched. He knew that Ku Niang was not only about loyalty, but also about feelings.
The affection she has for him is worth protecting with all his strength!
In addition, Ku Niang's last words also made Xu Zun full of expectations.
"Only speaking to you..."
Gu Li
Does this mean that I can ask Ku Niang about the iron coffin? The truth about the iron coffin case will finally be revealed?
Just when Xu Zun was looking forward to a new night when he could have a good talk with Ku Niang, some good news came one after another.
First of all, Hou Zhen and Dai Long returned from injury.
Hou Zhen's life was tough enough. In such a violent explosion, Li Ren was blown beyond recognition, but Hou Zhen was only temporarily comatose and suffered some minor injuries.
After being treated, with a bandage still wrapped around his head, he couldn't wait to report back.
In comparison, Dai Long's injury was more serious. He was still applying medicine to his entire neck, and his complexion was also slightly worse.
However, Xu Zun knew that they were all tough men, and if he persuaded them to recuperate, they would be even more uncomfortable.
Therefore, Xu Zun welcomed the two of them back to the team, and they were naturally very happy.
As a result, Dai Long, Hou Zhen, A Xiuzai, Li Xing, Jiang Hua and Shangguan Min, six of the eight great guards returned.
Cai Kun promised Xu Zun that he would complete the eight bodyguards for him, so the remaining two are expected to be sent soon.
Although Xu Zun already knew that not all of these people obeyed Cai Kun, but after all, they were brothers who had been through hardships and experienced life and death together, so naturally they would not be biased.
Moreover, Xu Zun has long been accustomed to having other people's spies around him, so it doesn't matter.
After the six people gathered together, Xu Zun generously rewarded each of them with two ingots of gold to help them settle down.
Hou Zhen and others naturally did not dare to accept it, saying that each of them had received a reward in the Heavenly Tribulation Incident, and they were already very satisfied.
However, Xu Zun said that one code equals the other, and if he didn't accept his wishes, he would be looking down on him.
As a result, several people had no choice but to accept it, and naturally they respected Xu Zun even more.
Later today, Dongfang Enchanting suddenly paid a visit and brought three weapons.
"Miss Anu," she emphatically picked up an iron umbrella and said to Huo Anu, "this iron umbrella was left behind by the old iron umbrella monster in Yanzhou decades ago. See if you can use it?
"
Huo Anu was surprised and quickly took the iron umbrella to check.
"Old Monster Iron Umbrella..." Zhao Yu remembered something, "It seems that he was a figure of the same era as Zhao Shengong. It is said that he was also among the top ten masters of Daxuan, but he died later..."
"Yes," Dongfang Enchanting said, "A few years ago, the Divine Catcher purchased his handed down iron umbrella and kept it in the armory of the Divine Catcher. I saw that Miss Anu also used an umbrella, so I gave it to her.
have a look……"
"What a great umbrella!"
Huo Anu was fascinated by the sight, and immediately opened the umbrella stand and tried to dance.
"Look..." Ani said, "It seems to be bigger and heavier than Sister Anu's one!"
"Old Zhao," Huo Anu started dancing and greeted Zhao Yu, "Make two gestures!"
Huo Anu didn't care whether Zhao Yule was happy or not and immediately threw the iron umbrella at him.
The heavy iron umbrella made a whirring sound, which was very powerful.
Zhao Yu was shocked and had no choice but to pull out his sword to block. However, he only blocked it for a moment, and Zhao Yu and his men were knocked away with the sword.
Huh...huh...
The huge iron umbrella opened and closed like a ferocious beast, clanking and roaring fiercely.
"Master Zhao," at this time, Dongfang Enchanting opened a wooden box and threw a sword inside towards Zhao Yu, "Let's see if this Nine-wheel Soul-Revolving Sword fits your hand?"
Zhao Yu took the sword and his eyebrows instantly knitted together, almost tying a knot.
But I saw that this heavy sword was covered with nine golden rings. It turned out to be the ancestral sword of the Zhao family - the Nine-wheel Soul-turning Sword!!!
