Chapter 1938 - 1524: Changsheng Vows to Be a Coward!

Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu exchanged glances, disbelief flashing through their eyes at once...

"Shi Wujue, what did you say? Something happened to Ta You? Don’t joke around, although we’ve never met Ta You, we’re aware of his abilities. That kind of heaven-defying BUG, what could possibly happen to him? I feel that even if we turned into jerky in this Star Innate Tower and everyone in the world perished, he would still be doing just fine!" Gu Changsheng’s resentment and trepidation towards Ta You remained on his performance in the first five layers of the Star Innate Tower.

In Gu Changsheng’s heart, Ta You was an existence even more overpowered than Little Monk Bu Jie!

What kind of person, knowledgeable about both ancient and modern times, and omnipotent, could have anything happen to them?

Although Gu Changsheng hoped for something to happen to Ta You, so that the remaining three layers of the Star Innate Tower would be slightly easier to pass, in the face of Ta You’s power, Gu Changsheng felt that his hopes were nothing but a fool’s dream!

"This Star Innate Tower is the burial ground Ta You prepared for himself. The starlight and moonlight in this tower are condensed from Ta You’s own spiritual power. If nothing happened to Ta You, the stars and moon wouldn’t lose their color!" Shi Wujue looked at the darkened tower top, an expression full of contemplation on his unparalleled face, "The Star Innate Tower has stood for fifteen years without Ta You taking a step off it. Judging from the previous layers, although he is at the top of the tower, everything that happens in the Star Innate Tower is within his grasp. He should have already become one with the Star Innate Tower! The change in the Star Innate Tower definitely means something happened to Ta You!"

Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu heard Shi Wujue’s words and looked at each other, speechless for a while.

After a long moment, Gu Changsheng blinked his long eyelashes and slapped his thigh in excitement, "Then it’s a good thing! Something happening to Ta You is just our opportunity! We don’t have to endure much more suffering, aren’t the next three layers of the Star Innate Tower much easier to climb now?"

However, it was obvious that apart from Gu Changsheng, who planned to seize the opportunity, Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue exchanged a worried look...

They weren’t as optimistic as Gu Changsheng!

Gu Changsheng forgot today’s events, but Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue remembered everything clearly!

Ta You is the continuation of the Divine Venerable Ancient Wilderness’s will, such a heaven-defying being, how could anything happen to him?

If something did happen, it must be an incredible event!

No one knew what happened to Ta You at the top of the Ninth Layer of the Star Innate Tower, but after witnessing those mottled memories from Ancient Wilderness Times, both Zhou Mu and Shi Wujue instinctively felt that something happening to Ta You might not be a good thing for them!

Ignorance is fearless, and fearlessness is courageous!

Sometimes, ignorance is indeed bliss!

Just like Gu Changsheng, who lost today’s memory, as if nothing ever happened...

After the carefree Yuan Bao woke up first, Qiwowen Du, Diluo Han, and others followed suit, waking up amidst the darkness, and cries of astonishment and confused murmurs filled the air...

Gu Changsheng looked around at everyone, each person looking just as bewildered, and suddenly felt everything was complete!

Well, indeed the only one waking up utterly confused wasn’t just her, balance is achieved through comparison, and Gu Changsheng red-facedly found balance!

However, after finding balance, Gu Changsheng quickly discovered a matter that made her feel very unbalanced: out of everyone present, including her own evildoer and Shi Wujue, none were as injured as she was!

What does this even mean?

So, she really acted heroically?

But that can’t be right?

She’s usually so cowardly, especially when her evildoer and Shi Wujue, these two protectors, were still unharmed, how could they just watch her get injured this badly?

Gu Changsheng was truly baffled!

Soon, Diluo Han and the others found the sacks containing the Luminous Pearls. At this time, under the dim light of the faded stars and moon in the Star Innate Tower, Diluo Han and the others had to admit that Gu Changsheng’s previous insistence on digging out these Luminous Pearls was truly a prescient and wise move!

With a Luminous Pearl in hand for everyone, the Sixth Layer of the Star Innate Tower became brightly lit!

Gu Changsheng looked at Yuan Bao and the others, all lively and bouncing around, feeling blood rushing through her heart!

Damn it, it’s unfair!

So unfair indeed!

She couldn’t even move without pain, and they were all acting like nothing happened, maybe just a few falls here and there, what kind of situation is this?

"Evildoer, did I really act heroically?" How else would she end up so gravely injured? Gu Changsheng wanted to cry but had no tears.

"Hmm." Zhou Mu tilted his head, glancing at the little woman who leaned close to him seeking reassurance.

Sorry, Changsheng, I lied this time.

This time, you didn’t play the hero. It’s just that some things are related to you, and you simply can’t escape or avoid them!

Even Zhou Mu doesn’t know what connection those memories from the Ancient Wilderness have with Gu Changsheng!

"Damn!" Gu Changsheng swore under his breath at the response of his own evildoer, and then, very seriously said to his own evildoer, "Evildoer, if I ever play the hero again, you must stop me!"

"Huh?" Zhou Mu, still lost in his own thoughts, responded immediately upon hearing this.

"I’m saying, you absolutely must not let me play the hero again. Is being a hero so easy? One wrong move and I’ll turn into a coward! Just look at how battered I am now, this is a bloody lesson!" Gu Changsheng pointed at his own scarred body and then at Yuan Bao and the others, who were lively and bouncing around, with a face full of indignation.

Damn, if she remembered what kind of mental and physical attacks she had endured on the Sixth Layer of the Star Innate Tower, if everything could start over, Gu Changsheng guarantees, she’d run faster than anyone else!

Is being a hero that easy? Heroes and cowards are only separated by a fine line!

And Gu Changsheng is one who swears to be a coward!

Especially after this lesson of turning from hero to coward, Gu Changsheng thinks she could remember it for a lifetime, the blatant past mistakes, next time whatever happens, she’d definitely hide at the back, never getting into the more pitiful situation than others, how tragic!

"Hehe..." Zhou Mu looked at the angry little woman in his arms, slowly raised his hand, stroked her cheek, and whispered, "Actually, this is really good..."

Forgetting everything, forgetting those memories too heavy for her life to bear, this is really good.

All he wishes for is his woman to be carefree and fearless.

For everything else, anything and everything, if he can, he would bear it for her!

If possible, Zhou Mu wished it was him severely injured at this moment, and not the little woman in his arms.

Watching Gu Changsheng’s pale complexion and gloomy expression, Zhou Mu felt like his heart was clenched, wishing it was him injured and not her!

"What’s good or not? I’ve always been fine! Don’t worry, this small injury can’t bring me down, I’m the indestructible little strong cockroach!" Gu Changsheng, as if sensing Zhou Mu’s worry and low mood, gestured to his arm and said comfortingly, "Someone like me, I’m like a general on the battlefield, a special forces soldier among soldiers, a fighter jet among airplanes, a VIP among villains!"

Gu Changsheng spoke with high spirit, but at the end of her words, she choked herself, quickly correcting, "Ahem...said too much! I’m not related to villains!"

Zhou Mu, who was originally worried and downcast, was inexplicably amused by the little woman in his arms!

Looking at Gu Changsheng, he shook his head with indulgence and said amusingly, "You! Even in this state, you’re still not behaving!"

"With injuries like this, if I still behave, I’d feel like I’m about to die..." Gu Changsheng blinked her big eyes with an innocent look, but this expression on her pale and bloodless face only made Zhou Mu’s heart ache more.

"Once the medicine is ready, you must drink it. This time, without candied fruit to chase it down, you’ll have to manage..." Zhou Mu glanced towards the gathering place of the Luminous Pearl, where Yuan Bao was preparing the medicine.

But given that Gu Changsheng, as a doctor, lacks the awareness of being a patient, Zhou Mu had to give a warning in advance.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng’s little face immediately drooped, looking at the face in front of her, like a Divine Residence, she pleaded with a face full of hesitation, "Can’t I not drink it? I think my self-healing ability is pretty good. Drinking medicine all the time isn’t good; medicine can be toxic after all..."

As a doctor, saying this is undoubtedly a slap to her own face, but Gu Changsheng really hates drinking medicine!

According to her, someone like her should live in a honey jar; medicinal soups are so bitter, she refuses to accept it!

Gu Changsheng really regrets it, why, before entering the Star Innate Tower, did she let Yuan Bao prepare food and, by the way, also some medicinal herbs?

Indeed, the pits one digs oneself are the ones that bury oneself most accurately!

Gu Changsheng really wished she could slap herself. For having foresight, did you curse yourself into having to drink medicine?

"You can’t not drink it." Zhou Mu’s answer was quite straightforward and blunt.

"But my external injuries have already been treated with ointment!" Gu Changsheng continued to struggle, she rejects all bitter things...

"You also have internal injuries!"

"But my internal injuries, they’re affecting my Divine Soul! This seems to be beyond the effectiveness of medicinal stones, drinking herbal soup doesn’t help, right?" Gu Changsheng thought that as a doctor, saying this was quite authoritative, her own evildoer shouldn’t really force the herbal soup on her anymore!

Sure enough, as Gu Changsheng expected, Zhou Mu lowered his head slightly, not insisting further, but he just stared at Gu Changsheng for a while, and then spoke again in a worried tone, "Even if it’s just for my peace of mind..."
