Chapter 378: Finale (2)

Chapter 378: Finale (2)

The people at Peace Manor had just returned from their most recent mission. They were incredibly excited when they saw Gu Xiqiao return.

“That’s enough guys,” said Gu Xiqiao upon seeing how close Wu Hongwen and the rest of his team were on the brink of breaking down into tears. “I’m not dead, alright?”

“What are you talking about!” Yao Jiamu was frowning. What an inauspicious word to say!

“Where’s Xiao Yun?” Gu Xiqiao asked while rubbing her nose. Her eyes scanned across the crowd in search of her friend. It was a convenient opportunity to change the topic anyway.

Too bad, Xiao Yun was nowhere to be found.

Wu Hongwen pursed his lips. “Her? She left with Tang Qingqiu right after our mission ended. But…” He was a little worried when thinking about this. “She did not seem particularly happy when she left. I wonder what happened to her.”

“It’s nothing to worry about. It’ll only be a minor hassle at most.” Gu Xiqiao guessed that the problem Xiao Yun was facing was not really life-threatening, so she let it be.

They continued chatting until Yao Jiamu raised a serious issue.

“You’re talking about the desert wasteland?” asked Gu Xiqiao with knitted brows when she heard what Yao Jiamu said.

“That’s right. The wave fluctuations over there are bizarre. If Wenlang didn’t tell me that you were coming back, I would’ve brought the Peacekeepers over there to do some investigation.”

Gu Xiqiao was about to say something when she suddenly looked up at the horizon. A moment later, she turned back towards Yao Jiamu. “I don’t want you guys to meddle in this issue. Stand back until I issue orders.”

Right after she said that not a single second was wasted. She immediately left the Peace Manor for the edge of the ancient martial arts world.

The 81 men who were under Mo Li’s command was standing on the side of the main road of the ancient martial arts world. Their facial expressions could only be described as stunned.

All 81 of them had ancient powers which surpassed that of the ancient martial arts world. This made them severely underestimate the people of this place. That was at least until they met Gu Xiqiao, whom they had initially disrespected.

After all, back in their world, power triumphs over everything else.

What they did not expect was to see Gu Xiqiao and Tengen immobilize one of their aces so effortlessly. They were initially stupefied, unable to believe what had just happened.

In fact, they even suspected that both Gu Xiqiao and Tengen were demigods!

As if these two weren’t surprising enough, they were shocked to see the combat squads of the ancient martial arts world.

Although the individual members of the squad weren’t particularly powerful, their strength combined when creating formations was practically never seen before!

How was this possible?

Their collective strength was greater than the sum of its parts! How could a bunch of regular humans even be capable of wielding such great force!?

“Miss Mo Li, are these people really just human beings who have cultivated their skill in ancient martial arts?” Even the great prodigies from his mother’s generation paled in comparison to their modern counterparts here in the ancient martial arts world. The young man wiped the cold sweat off his brows. Recalling how arrogant his demeanor was in the beginning, his face became flushed red.

If regular humans in the martial arts world were already so strong, then how could their 81-man team even compare to the bona fide martial artists?!

Just when their morale was at an all-time low, they saw the woman from the teahouse walk in their direction.

The Ghost Legion instinctively shrunk back out of fear.

Before they could say anything, the combat squad who had marched past them suddenly stopped in their tracks. They moved to both sides of the road. The young people of the squad remained quiet. Slightly, they bowed forward and projected a respectful expression towards Gu Xiqiao!

It wasn’t just some superficial show of respect; the members of the Ghost Legion could sense that their respect came from the bottom of their hearts. It was the same sort of respect a weaker party would show to a dominant force.

This baffled the Ghost Legion. These youngsters were already plenty strong. Who would’ve thought that even they would bow to this woman?

What did this imply?!

The 81 men felt the same chill crawl up their spines. For the first time since they met, they took Gu Xiqiao seriously. They then turned towards Mo Li with skeptical expressions.

Mo Li said that Gu Xiqiao was their master’s wife. They dismissed this as a joke in the beginning.

Although they were the subordinates of their “master”, they had never seen him in person before. To be suddenly summoned out of nowhere definitely made them excited. They wished to perform and show how capable they had become, and the first one to whom this would be shown was Miss Mo Li.

They knew that apart from Mo Li, their “master” had never had a person of the opposite sex by his side before. This was part of the reason why they sucked up to Mo Li, and also why they did not believe that Gu Xiqiao was their master’s wife.

But now, they had just gone through a rude awakening.

Shocked as they may be, Gu Xiqiao did not stop before them. As if they were transparent, Gu Xiqiao walked past them and continued making her way towards the edge of the ancient martial arts world.

There weren’t a lot of people gathered at her destination, as most of the squads had already returned from their missions by mid-day.

Gu Xiqiao’s eyes darted around, until they finally came upon a slender figure whose back was facing her.

A crisp-white shirt, black slacks, and a tall figure. Basking under the afternoon sun, the icy-coldness of his aura seemed to have diminished quite noticably.

Perhaps he heard a slight rustling, which made him turn around, revealing his handsome chiseled face.

It was the same old familiar face, and yet something about his aura had changed, turning it unpredictable.

Gu Xiqiao slowed to a halt. Standing before him, she was about to say something when a silhouette darted in front of her.

“You’ve finally woken up,” said Mo Li, who had marched right up to Jiang Shuxuan.
