I Have Five Senior Brothers - Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Fighting For Favor

Seeing Gu Qingqing fall from the sky, Nan Hua and the other two quickly went up to catch her.

“Qingqing, what’s wrong?” Nan Hua hugged Gu Qingqing and asked when he saw that she was still awake.

Gu Qingqing had just absorbed some more runes and felt that the seal in her body had loosened a lot. Hearing Nan Hua’s words, she shook her head, indicating that she was fine.

Nan Hua carefully observed her face and found that there was nothing wrong with her except that she was a little pale. He let go of Gu Qingqing uneasily and said, “Qingqing, if you feel uncomfortable, you must say it. Don’t hold it in.”

Gu Qingqing withdrew from Nan Hua’s embrace and nodded.

“Are you all okay?” Gu Qingqing pointed at Nan Hua and the other two and gestured.

“We’re all fine.” Rong Ye did not grab Gu Qingqing just now and she was caught by Nan Hua. He was still thinking about it, so he quickly said.

Nan Hua and Jun Wu also shook their heads, indicating that they were fine.

Only then did Gu Qingqing heave a sigh of relief.

“The disappearance of the fog in this forest should have something to do with you, Little Qingqing, right?” Nan Hua looked at the small forest that had returned to its original state and thought about the sudden appearance of Gu Qingqing and the strange runes on her body. He could not help but ask.

“This is not a place to talk. Let’s leave first.”Jun Wu, who had not spoken all this while, stopped Gu Qingqing. He used his eyes to signal for Nan Hua to look around and said calmly.

Nan Hua also noticed that the people on the ground were beginning to wake up. He nodded. The four of them were the same as when they came. Rong Ye brought Jun Wu and Nan Hua brought Gu Qingqing and left the small forest.

The four of them did not return directly to the Hidden Spirit Mountain. Instead, they returned to the manor of the city lord of Cloud Chasing City. When they learned from City Lord Han that they had already been gone for two days, the four of them were a little surprised.

“The fog in the dense fog forest has already disappeared. City Lord Han can send someone to take a look there. The people who went in previously seem to still be there.” As the spokesperson of the four of them, Rong Ye took on the responsibility of communicating with City Lord Han.

Hearing this, City Lord Han’s face immediately lit up with joy. “Thank you for the information, my lords. I will immediately make arrangements.”

“Get someone to prepare a courtyard for us. We need to rest for a while.” Rong Ye looked at the slightly pale Gu Qingqing and said to City Lord Han.

“Okay, I will get someone to make the arrangements right away. Rest assured, my lords.” After City Lord Han finished speaking, he called the butler over and asked him to guide Gu Qingqing and the others while he left quickly.

The city lord’s mansion of Cloud Chasing City was relatively big. City Lord Han had done quite well with building the mansion. The butler brought the four of them to a relatively quiet courtyard before he turned around and left.

When they reached the room, Rong Ye quickly took out a pile of food that he had prepared for Gu Qingqing from his interspatial ring and handed it to her. “Qingqing, you probably didn’t eat well in there. Eat quickly.”

These things were specially prepared by Rong Ye for Gu Qingqing and were all to her liking.

[ Thank you, fifth senior brother. ] Gu Qingqing happened to be hungry and did not stand on ceremony with Rong Ye. She gave him a sweet smile and picked up a piece of cake and stuffed it into her mouth.

Rong Ye was feeling happy about Gu Qingqing’s smile when he saw her pass a piece of cake to Jun Wu beside her. The smile froze on his face and the way he looked at Jun Wu was as if he had been poisoned.

Although Jun Wu and Gu Qingqing were still young, from Rong Ye’s point of view, Nan Hua and the others were from the same sect as him. They belonged to the same sect and he could barely accept them snatching Gu Qingqing from him. However, Jun Wu was completely an outsider. Even though he was also teaching Jun Wu knowledge, Jun Wu wanting to snatch Gu Qingqing’s attention made him very dissatisfied!

Jun Wu directly ignored Rong Ye’s gaze and calmly took the pastry from Gu Qingqing’s hand. He thanked her and then carefully put it into his mouth. When Rong Ye glared at him, he turned his back on Gu Qingqing and curled his lips at Rong Ye, Rong Ye almost crushed his fist when he saw this.

Gu Qingqing did not know about the confrontation between Rong Ye and Jun Wu. After eating the pastry, she drank some spirit dew and then ate some other food. Only when she felt that her stomach was full did she stop.

Nan Hua was standing on the other side of Gu Qingqing. When he saw that Gu Qingqing had finished eating, he handed a handkerchief to Gu Qingqing and asked her to wipe her hands. Gu Qingqing took it and smiled at him.

Rong Ye, who did not win against Jun Wu, turned his head and saw this scene. He was instantly enraged.

If not for the fact that Gu Qingqing was still around, he would have punched Nan Hua.

Nan Hua was much more unscrupulous than Jun Wu. Under Rong Ye’s murderous gaze, he took the handkerchief from Gu Qingqing and put it away. Then, he raised his head and gave Rong Ye a provocative smile.

Rong Ye:”…” You want to kill me!

Jun Wu, who was standing on the other side of Gu Qingqing, pursed his lips and looked at Nan Hua with a deep gaze. He did not do anything else.

Gu Qingqing clapped her hands at this moment. After the three of them focused their gazes on her, she took out a pen and paper from her storage bracelet and wrote down what had happened earlier on a piece of paper.

“In other words, this misty forest was completely created by this demonic beast called ‘clam’?” For the first time in his life, Rong Ye doubted his life.

Gu Qingqing nodded her head lightly.

“When you killed the clam, you weren’t injured, right?”Jun Wu was not interested in the clam. He was more worried about Gu Qing Qing’s body. He changed his previous calmness and pulled her hand to check on her condition.

“I’m fine.” Gu Qing shook her head lightly.

“In that case, little junior sister, you’ve absorbed some runes. How is your seal?” Although Nan Hua had never heard of a creature like the clam, it had already been defeated by Gu Qingqing and she was not injured, He was more concerned about the seal in Gu Qingqing’s body. They had come here with this purpose.

“I feel that it has loosened a little, but more runes are needed to completely break it,” Gu Qingqing wrote on the paper.

“That’s good. Our trip here was not in vain.” Rong Ye was happy for Gu Qingqing.

Gu Qingqing nodded and revealed a sweet smile.

Seeing this, Rong Ye and the other two could not help but smile.

Previously, Nan Hua had not brought Gu Qingqing out. Now that they were out, he wanted to bring Gu Qingqing around. The customs in Cloud Chasing City were different from those in Qingfeng City. Today was the annual Flower God Festival in Cloud Chasing City. At night, the Flower God Parade was lively. The four of them had a good rest. When it was dark, they left the city lord’s mansion and came to the streets of Cloud Chasing City.

The people of the city paid great attention to the Flower God Festival. At this time, when the lanterns were lit, the streets were full of people, shoulder to shoulder, and it was very lively.

Rong Ye and Nan Hua were both very good-looking, and they were of completely different types of good-looking men. The folk customs of the Mysterious Sky Continent were also more open. Along the way, the two of them received countless handkerchiefs and sachets.

There were even many women who pretended to fall, wanting to fall into the arms of the two of them, which made Gu Qingqing laugh a lot.

“The Flower God Parade has arrived!”
