Chapter 2044 - 1616: Employer, Please Mount Up!

A person like her own evildoer, Gu Changsheng couldn’t be clearer about; her evildoer was obviously someone who found it bothersome to say even an extra word to others!

Yet, just now, she actually heard her own evildoer soothing someone gently!

This...

This is simply more shocking than a rain of red falling from the sky!

It made Gu Changsheng feel a bit disoriented!

Gu Changsheng’s large Phoenix Eyes darted back and forth between her evildoer and Youngster Linchuan several times, and then, her mouth couldn’t help but twitch...

Oh my god!

A melancholic young man, truly remarkable, this is simply invincible!

Even her own evildoer couldn’t help but show pity!

How should one put this...

Gu Changsheng suddenly felt a strange sensation in her heart, as if her exclusive evildoer was being stolen, and the key point was the person stealing her evildoer turned out to be a melancholic young man...

"Thank you..." Jin Linchuan lowered his head, his sentimental face showing no sign of relaxation...

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng’s mouth twitched even more violently!

Alright!

Both she and her evildoer fell for it, feeling a bit of pity for this melancholic young man, but somehow he didn’t seem very appreciative, his caution was still very strong!

Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu exchanged a glance, seeing a look of helplessness in each other’s eyes...

Gu Changsheng shrugged her shoulders, indicating that she was also helpless!

Moreover, her naturally cheerful disposition was noticeably more restrained in front of this young man!

"Uh, madam, lord, it’s our turn..." Yuan Bao looked at the reactions of her lord and madam towards Jin Linchuan, feeling choked, yet couldn’t help but point ahead, nervously saying...

Before they knew it, they somehow gradually walked from the back of the long queue to the front, reaching the checkpoint, standing before a row of Smelting City guards, who were stretching out their hands, asking for something...

Needless to say, they were naturally asking for Smelting Currency!

Anyone wanting to pass through Smelting City to enter deep into Divine Mount Qilian had to pay enough Smelting Currency, which was the rule of Smelting City!

Gu Changsheng wasn’t usually someone who followed rules, but now, having reached this point, there was really no need for forceful entry!

Because, Youngster Linchuan had already taken out a brocade bag from his waist and handed it over...

The guard at the checkpoint took it, carefully counted, then nodded to Gu Changsheng’s group, saying, "The mountain is dangerous, once you go, life and death are beyond control, it’s unrelated to Smelting City!"

The words were extremely blunt, lacking any warmth, but they were very objective!

Every year, countless people venture deep into Divine Mount Qilian, and by speaking plainly upfront, it prevents future troubles!

Otherwise, if people who encounter problems on the mountain demanded explanations from Smelting City each time, Smelting City couldn’t possibly explain to all!

"Brother Shui Mu, Yong Shu can only escort you to here, once you go deep into the divine mountain, I hope you all return safely, beware and don’t take risks!" Leaving the checkpoint, standing at the entrance to the meandering path leading deep into Divine Mount Qilian, Yong Shu clasped his hands and spoke solemnly.

"Thank you." Zhou Mu’s attitude towards Yong Shu was not as friendly as towards Jin Linchuan, he barely nodded, responding lightly.

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng thought this difference in treatment was really hurtful, quickly adding, "Yong Shu, don’t worry, we’ll come back safely! You head back, and remember, tell Alliance Leader Yong Qing we will return!"

"Yes!" Hearing this, Yong Shu snapped out of Zhou Mu’s lukewarm attitude, nodded with a smile.

Although they hadn’t known each other long, Yong Shu also found that the man named Shui Mu was not one to talk much. Instead, this woman, although suffering from Divine Soul Injury, was optimistic and open-minded, her face always wearing a smile, seemingly easy to get along with.

"Then I’ll take my leave!" Clasping his fists again, Yong Shu stepped back, saying solemnly, "Take care!"

"Take care!" Gu Changsheng waved to Yong Shu, not forgetting to add, "Don’t forget to tell your master we will return!"

"Alright!" Yong Shu replied, then proceeded back towards Smelting City.

In fact, Yong Shu didn’t understand why, at such a crucial time during the Divine Weapon Convention, his master repeatedly instructed him to escort Shui Mu and others out of Smelting City...

As Yong Shu returned to Smelting City, news about the theft of the Divine Weapon at the convention spread rapidly, and the culprit was none other than the Mountain God Guardian of Divine Mount Qilian!

Knowing this news, Yong Shu was exceptionally shocked, but he still passed on Gu Changsheng’s parting words, saying they would return, to Alliance Leader Yong Qing!

Heaven knows how enraged Alliance Leader Yong Qing appeared after hearing this!

Did he just kick his own disciple or not?

This kick left Yong Shu utterly baffled, completely oblivious to where he went wrong...

Gu Changsheng was no longer very concerned about the situation in Smelting City. At this moment, they remained outside the city, on the mountain path leading deep into Divine Mount Qilian...

Facing the continuous lush mountains, the towering peaks that seem to reach the clouds, one couldn’t help but marvel at the creator’s craftsmanship while also worrying endlessly about the vastness of the journey ahead...

"So this is the real Divine Mount Qilian!" Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but exclaim.

Smelting City is located on a small hillside at the outer edge of Divine Mount Qilian, and compared to this true Divine Mount Qilian, it’s like a small witch compared to a Great Witch, completely incomparable!

"Yes, this is Divine Mount Qilian!" Baby Jin Bao peeked his head out from Yuan Bao’s arms, chewing on his finger, and murmured, "How is it, majestic, right? Magnificent, right?"

"Yes, yes, it’s majestic, it’s magnificent, but entering the mountain has become a big problem!" Gu Changsheng nodded after hearing this, pointed at the two horses Duo Shu was holding, and on his bright and beautiful face, there was a helpless expression...

Damn, too many people and too few horses, what should we do?

"Uh..." Baby Jin Bao was stunned upon hearing this, but then quickly realized that this matter likely had nothing to do with a little kid like him. After all, even on flat ground, he was the one being held, let alone on mountain paths...

He’s just a child; he’s not afraid!

His gaze wandered to the two Witch Gu Horses they had brought, then glanced at the Soul-Devouring Python lying in the grass. Gu Changsheng looked at Shi Wujue, then Jin Linchuan, feeling quite conflicted...

Seriously, how do we allocate these?

Needless to say, Shi Wujue must have a mount because his health isn’t great!

And me, even more so; if I were to climb the mountain on foot, my own evildoer would probably turn around and carry me back!

And then there’s this Youngster Linchuan...

Looking so pitiably pitiful that it makes people want to feel sorry for him. Letting him walk, Gu Changsheng feels a huge surge of guilt...

So...

After taking a deep breath, Gu Changsheng still made a decision, pointing to one of the Witch Gu Horses, and said to Youngster Linchuan, "Dear employer, please get on the horse!"

Damn, Gu Changsheng felt that she truly was a good person, letting her own people walk while giving up one of the Witch Gu Horses...

Who knows how the southern mountain paths are; without a Witch Gu Horse for transport, even Yuan Bao and Black Man would suffer a bit...

"Thank you... But this horse..." Jin Linchuan, hearing this, looked at the tall Witch Gu Horse in front of him and was stunned. Most mountain-trained horses are relatively small and sturdy, but the ones they brought were even bigger than ordinary horses. Can these horses handle mountain paths?

"Don’t worry, these are Southern Border Witch Gu Horses; handling mountain paths is no issue at all!" Gu Changsheng understood what Youngster Linchuan was thinking and accidentally revealed the identity of the Witch Gu Horse.

"Witch Gu Horse? Witch Gu?" Jin Linchuan was indeed shocked and widened his eyes.

"Uh..." Realizing his slip of the tongue, Gu Changsheng felt awkward and embarrassed, and with an awkward smile, he thought for a moment before saying, "Well, aren’t there always some bad ones everywhere? Even in the Southern Border, having a few Witch Gu Horses is no big deal..."

Finally, seeing Youngster Linchuan’s incredulous expression, Gu Changsheng rubbed his nose and added, "Well, we’re rich, so we’re capricious!"

Ha ha...

Just assume that this Witch Gu Horse was bought...

Let’s not dig deeper, or else, damn, I’ll cry right here...

"Well, come on, get on the horse quickly. If we delay much longer, it will get dark and we’ll have nowhere to camp! All the good spots will be snatched up by others!"

As Gu Changsheng spoke, she pushed Youngster Linchuan onto the horse, not bothering herself with gender segregation since Jin Linchuan was just a young boy.

Gu Changsheng might not care, but Youngster Linchuan felt quite awkward. Being passively pushed onto the Witch Gu Horse by Gu Changsheng, he looked at her with eyes that were still filled with uncertainty...

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng genuinely felt like crying. Oh my, why is this youngster so cautious and wary?

Although their faces were a bit tanned, their hearts weren’t dark! They definitely didn’t look like bad people!

Why do you have to look at her with such a vulnerable expression? It’s heartbreaking...

After placing Jin Linchuan on the Witch Gu Horse, one of the two Witch Gu Horses was gone. Now, Gu Changsheng’s group was left with only two means of transport...

One Witch Gu Horse and one Soul-Devouring Python...

Gu Changsheng’s gaze couldn’t help but drift towards Shi Wujue...

Well then, should Shi Wujue ride the Soul-Devouring Python?

Although their own Soul-Devouring Python looks mighty and imposing, it is, after all, a python. Its appearance isn’t very appealing, not very appealing at all...
