Seeing that the Great Elder of Shushan was willing to cooperate, Gu Xun nodded with satisfaction.
It is easier to deal with smart people, but if you encounter the so-called hard-core people who can't see the situation clearly and refuse to bow down, Gu Xun will not be able to let Shushan go even if he wants to.
"In this case, when Concubine Yan returns to normal, there will be Elder Lao."
The great elder of Shushan could only sigh slightly again and turned to look at Concubine Yan, who was still in a strange state.
Everyone just waited quietly for Concubine Yan to return to normal.
However, during this process, the power of the Fuso Sacred Tree also unknowingly seeped into Shi Lan's body in Shi Qing's arms.
Because a large amount of the divine power of the Fuso tree had been dissipated during the previous battle, no one noticed this, including Gu Xun.
The wait lasted from noon to dusk, and it was almost halfway through Shen time.
Accompanied by a clear and high-pitched cry of the Golden Crow, Concubine Yan's uncontrollably released Longyou Qi finally returned to her control and was absorbed back into her body bit by bit.
This is obviously a win-win change.
Gu Xun could clearly feel that Concubine Yan's Longyou Qi had become more refined by more than three levels. Even for an outstanding genius like her, it would probably be unrealistic for her to make such great progress within three to five years. p>
Although Gu Xun cannot accurately judge the condition of the Three-Legged Golden Crow, the extremely comfortable look on its humanized bird face is enough to know that it is definitely not at a disadvantage.
This divine bird flew back to the top of the Fuso sacred tree's canopy and stood proudly on the branch, without even looking at Gu Xun and others below.
After returning to normal, Concubine Yan's eyelids trembled slightly and then suddenly opened. However, because she had not opened her eyes for several hours, she could not adapt to the sunlight. She was so stung that she couldn't help but blink a few times quickly before she could clearly see the surrounding situation. Well...it seems like there is peace, but Concubine Yan knows that this is obviously impossible. Such a big unexpected change has suddenly happened to her. No matter how big the people in Shushan are, they will understand that something is wrong.
Taking a closer look, she saw the devastation on the ground and the pale faces of Yu Yuan's guards, and Concubine Yan immediately understood - the people from Shushan had taken action, but it was a pity that they obviously had not.
At this time, Gu Xun stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes, "Hey! I'm back."
Concubine Yan didn't bother to care about the other party's childish behavior. She glanced at her and said nothing, waiting for the other party to explain the current situation.
Gu Xun frowned and shrugged boredly, "It's okay, let's go and see the legendary sunset place - Yu Yuan."
Concubine Yan's pupils narrowed and she said suspiciously, "Yu Yuan... It is said that the real duty of the guards of Yu Yuan in Shushan is to protect the seal of Yu Yuan. How dare they allow you to approach there?"
As she said that, Concubine Yan glanced at the people in Shushan who were obviously still alive... If this group of people were all dead, it would be okay if no one could stop you.
Regarding Concubine Yan's doubts, the Great Elder of Shushan and others could only smile slightly bitterly.
The situation is not yet desperate, so they have no choice but to give in for the time being.
Gu Xun spread his hands and said with a bright smile, "You should know me. I'm very good at things like negotiation."
Concubine Yan:......
Zhang Han:......
Seeing their expressions of trusting you, Gu Xun had no choice but to add, "...The main reason is that on the matter of Shushan, I am neither on the side of Ying Zheng nor on the side of Donghuang Taiyi."
position."
"Even if I can't be considered a friendly unit, I think I can at least be considered a neutral... and a kind neutral who is not interested in the destruction of the world."
Now it's the turn of the great elder of Shushan who doesn't know what to say.
Neutral...you name it.
He really didn't want to listen to Gu Xun's non-human words, so he interrupted and said, "Since His Excellency Dongjun is no longer in trouble, we can just follow him."
"Great Elder, please." Gu Xun extended his hand and motioned for the other party to lead the way.
The great elder of Shushan nodded and ordered the surrounding Yu Yuan guards, "You all should go back first."
It can be seen that in Shushan, the great elder's status is basically determined by one word. Although Yu Yuan's guards were not very satisfied with this order, they did not question or refute it, and they still didn't recover from the delay.
My son's body has gone downhill.
Only Shi Qing and Shi Lan in her arms were left.
After the elder hesitated for a moment, he still called Shi Qing and his daughter away, "Qing'er, you should go back too."
"You still have to take care of the child. Alan is so young and is not suitable for going to Yuyuan."
Although Shi Qing was worried about the elder being alone, he couldn't let go of the child, and he knew that even if he stayed, it would be meaningless. He might as well return to the clan first, so he nodded and said:
"Well, Great Elder, please be careful."
After saying that, she took another deep look at Gu Xun, hugged the child and left.
Gu Xun pretended not to see anything, but Concubine Yan was surprised when she looked at Shi Qing's leaving figure and then at Gu Xun.
"It seems that the Imperial Master has hurt other people's hearts."
"Uh..." Gu Xun pondered for a moment, then added, "You also have a share in this, don't let me carry it all by myself."
Concubine Yan didn't respond, but just pursed her lips and smiled. What does it mean... I can only judge it for myself.
Gu Xun curled his lips and was too lazy to say more to her.
Married women don’t say anything anymore. Their husbands are still alive, and their relationship is good. You two are not serious, and no one else is serious!
The great elder of Shushan walked in front and heard the conversation between the two clearly. He smiled bitterly to himself, but did not interrupt.
The emotional topics that Concubine Yan talked about were naturally nonsense, but the sadness was real, and not only was she sad, but she also had a strong sense of self-blame.
He had watched Shi Qing grow up, and he could be said to be one of the people who knew the child's character best.
He may seem a little unkind and cold, but he is actually a kind person who trusts others easily.
Although she had repeatedly warned her before she left Shushan, all her precautions and vigilance were ultimately superficial and could not protect her from those with serious intentions.
The Great Elder of Shushan originally thought that he could bring the matter to an end by taking Gu Xun and others to the Fuso Sacred Tree, exposing the other party's lies and then capturing or forcing them back.
Although Shi Qing will be sad, it is only a temporary pain.
But he never thought that Gu Xun's strength exceeded his expectations. Even with the blessing of the sacred tree, a group of Yu Yuan guards could not defeat the opponent, causing the situation to rapidly deteriorate...
The great elder of Shushan has no intention of blaming anyone. This situation was also caused by his mistakes in decision-making. Moreover, Shushan is not at the end of its rope yet. It is the right way to continue and find a way to resolve this matter.
But afterwards, Shi Qing, who thought he was the culprit, found it difficult to forgive himself...
With everyone speechless, they went down the mountain along a secluded and narrow road that was different from the one they went up the mountain.
Gu Xun could tell from the tall fuso tree above his head that the direction he and others were heading was almost exactly where he had guessed before, which completely confirmed his guess was correct.
