Chapter 111: Will agree

Li Xia bit her lips and hesitated for a moment, and said, "Senior Brother, there is something I haven't told you, but in fact... Jin Lan is still there."

Gu Du was stunned, then grabbed Li Xia's shoulder with both hands, stared at her and asked, "What did you say?"

Li Xia frowned and said angrily: "You hurt me, let go quickly and listen to me."

Gu Du quickly let go, Li Xia raised his hand and rubbed his right shoulder. Gu Du asked quickly, "Is it okay? Let me see."

"Go!" Li Xia opened his hand and said, "The Soul Book records that human power cannot destroy souls. The so-called soul-destroying souls is just a way to destroy souls into unknown places, so I said, Jin Lan is actually still there."

Gu Du asked in surprise: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Li Xia replied: "I'm afraid you will commit suicide. I'm afraid you will find out, so I'll wipe my neck and go to her."

Gu Du frowned and said angrily: "I have not revenged my great revenge, how could I commit suicide? Besides, if you follow me and treason, how could I leave you alone?"

Li Xia pouted and said, "It's good that you know. I'll go to her grave to criticize her this morning. I didn't expect that she would come to you to dream at night, she was just stingy."

Gu Du was filled with sadness and joy, and held Li Xia's hand and said, "Let's sneak back to Lingguo to find something for Jin Lan and the people of the world. We want to help Emperor Ze unify the world!"

"Yes." Li Xia smiled and nodded in agreement, and asked again: "Have she told you about Dongfang Xia Lan?"

Gu Du replied: "No, what do you mean? What does she have to do with us?"

Li Xia smiled, lifted the quilt and got off the floor, picked up the light and said, "Lying down and sleep, I'll blow up the light."

During the morning exercise the next day, Gu Du was extremely strict, which scared Ye Xiaodong a little timid. Li Xia knew that Gu Du had a strong heart again, which was a good thing.

After practicing, Gu Du asked Ye Xiaodong to guard outside the tent, pulled Lixia back to the tent, looked at Lixia's injuries, and said, "You have to take care of it for ten days and half a month."

Li Xia said, "It's okay, you can start now."

Gu Du said, "How come it's okay? I squeezed it yesterday and you screamed in pain."

Li Xia pouted, and Gu Du said again: "Jin Lan told me not to be aggressive and to take good care of you."

Li Xia sneered while wearing clothes: "If she doesn't tell you, you won't take care of me?"

Gu Du frowned, Li Xia pouted and said, "Okay, okay, I'm not right, I shouldn't have been scruples with her."

Gu Du went to find Dongfang Bin first. When he heard that he wanted to sneak back to Lingguo, Dongfang Xia Lan said excitedly: "I'll go too!"

"You can't go." Gu Du and Dongfang Bin spoke in unison.

Dongfang Xia Lan said angrily: "Why can't I go?"

Dongfang Bin looked at Gu Du and said with a smile: "Master Gu, you said."

Gu Du said: "Your temperament is too flamboyant. I will be worried with you. I don't know when it will cause trouble."

Dongfang Xia Lan stared at Gu Du, and Gu Du said again: "I don't have the time to coax you."

Dongfang Xia Lan was so angry that her pink face turned red and shouted, "Who wants you to coax me!"

Gu Du ignored her and stood up and said, "Dongfang Bin, follow me to see the high priest."

"Yes." Dongfang Bin agreed to get up.

Dongfang Xia Lan said angrily: "Gu Du! I am the princess! Princess!"

Gu Du bowed and said, "Prince, I will leave."

After leaving the military camp, Dongfang Bin smiled and said, "My sister has never been so angry before."

Gu Du said: "All dangerous and important things cannot be used."

Dongfang Bin replied: "I understand."

After hearing Gu Du's words, the high priest frowned and was silent for a while before saying, "Is it too dangerous? Shouldn't it be sent? The two masters shouldn't go there, right?"

Gu Du said: "Thank you, the high priest, but I must go with Lixia for this matter. If you encounter any problems, you can adapt to the situation."

The high priest frowned and said, "I am afraid that the emperor will not agree."

Gu Du said confidently: "The Emperor will definitely agree."

The high priest asked, "Why?"

Gu Du smiled but said without saying a word. Dongfang Bin said, "If you can find a suitable item, within a few years, the Ze Kingdom can go hand in hand with the Ling Kingdom. This is a long-term solution and those who can recognize the spiritual wood must be Master Gu. Master Li and Master Gu are brothers and sisters, so they naturally have to go, so the emperor will definitely agree."

Gu Du smiled and looked at Dongfang Bin. This person was indeed smooth. In fact, the implication was that Emperor Ze just had to send someone to follow him and Lixia to find the source of the item. It didn't matter whether he or Lixia or not. Emperor Ze should know everything about Lixia, but he couldn't find it, or he didn't know it.

The high priest also heard the implication, coughed twice awkwardly, and said, "I will give you a reply when I report to Emperor Ming."

Gu Du said, "If you have any help, the high priest."

The high priest said again: "If the emperor agrees, I wonder when Master Gu will start to go?"

Gu Du replied: "My junior sister's injury has not yet recovered, and it will take at least half a month."

The high priest nodded and said, "I must take care of the wounds before I can talk about it. This is not an urgent matter. Master Gu has the need, so just come to me."

Gu Du replied, "Thank you, the High Priest."

After Gu Du and Dongfang Bin left, the high priest immediately went to see Emperor Ze. Emperor Ze pondered for a long time and almost murmured, "The two masters have preserved nearly 140,000 troops for our country of Ze, and they have made great contributions. If I agree to this matter, will it be too unkind and unrighteous?"

The high priest hesitated for a moment and replied, "Dongfang Bin said that this is a long-term solution and that those who can recognize the spiritual wood must be Master Gu. Master Li and Master Gu must follow their lives and death, so..."

The high priest sighed and repeated Gu Du's analysis of the soul army of the two countries. Emperor Ze frowned and sighed in confusion: "Let me think twice."

After dinner, Li Xia asked Gu Du: "Did the emperor not agree? The day has passed and no reply is heard."

Gu Du said, "I will agree."

Li Xia thought for a while and asked again: "After delaying for a day, do you think... he hesitated? Or deliberately pretending?"

Gu Du smiled and replied, "No need to speculate, it's a must."

"Yes." Li Xia nodded.

Dongfang Xia Lan shouted outside the tent: "Gu Du! Come out for this princess!"

The two of them were stunned at the same time, and Li Xia asked softly: "Why did you recruit her?"

"It's okay." Gu Du answered, opened the curtain and walked out, bowed to Dongfang Xia Lan, and called out: "Princess."

Dongfang Xia Lan untied the sword, drew the sword out of the sheath, inserted the sword to the ground, then held the sword sheath and pointed at Gu Du and said, "I want to compete with you!"

Gu Du said calmly: "The incident of returning to Lingguo is related to the destiny of the country and the welfare of the people in the world. It is not a joke. Even if the princess beat me, I will still not take the princess with me."

Dongfang Xia Lan put down his sword sheath and shouted, "When did I think this matter is a joke? I feel that since the Lingmen is determined to help Zeguo, my brother and sister will naturally make contributions. What's your intention if you don't take me there?"
