197: Section 197

“You are…”

Gu Xue was startled and looked around. “Where is this place?”

“This is Taichu Holy Land. It was Quasi-Saint Child Your Highness who brought you back.”

The maid replied.

Taichu Holy Land?

Quasi-Saint Child?

A look of confusion appeared in Gu Xue’s eyes.

She had always lived in Gu Family Village before and had never been out, so she did not know much about the outside world. Therefore, she had never heard of the name Taichu Holy Land, and she did not understand what Quasi-Saint Child meant.

But one thing was certain, this should not be Northern Wind Stronghold.

And looking at the elegance of the surroundings, plus these maids were all extremely beautiful, she thought that this place must be somewhere very rich or noble.

As she thought this.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded from outside.

Then, two figures walked in.

The first one was a man in white, with a refined demeanor and calm brows, like a banished Immortal.

Behind him was a young girl in a luxurious dress, following respectfully.

Seeing this, Gu Xue was immediately stunned.

These two people.

They were precisely the two figures she had seen before she fainted, standing on the Golden-Winged Great Peng, like Immortals.

“You’re awake? How are you, feeling better?”

Just as Gu Xue was in a daze, Chu Mo, who had just entered, asked with a smile.

“I’m much better, thank you for saving me.”

Gu Xue knew that since he was here, it must have been Chu Mo who had saved her, so she said with great gratitude.

“No need to be polite.”

Chu Mo waved his hand and said with a smile, “It’s quite a coincidence, actually. Earlier, when I went to Lingyun Mountains, I happened to see you two unconscious, so I brought you back for treatment… It’s good that you’re fine.”

“Mm.”

Gu Xue nodded.

She didn’t know why.

She always felt that this man looked very familiar. She didn’t know that this was influenced by Chu Mo’s destiny, only thinking that it might be because Chu Mo had saved them.

Coupled with Chu Mo’s excellent demeanor and gentle speech, she gradually let down her guard.

The two chatted for a while, mainly Chu Mo asking questions, and she recounting her experiences.

As she spoke, Gu Xue suddenly remembered Gu Family Village, and her expression immediately changed.

“What’s wrong?”

Chu Mo saw her abnormal expression and asked.

“I’m worried about Grandpa Gu!”

Gu Xue said anxiously, “I’ve been out for so long this time, I don’t know how Grandpa Gu and the others are doing!”

She had snuck out, and if Northern Wind Stronghold couldn’t find them, they might vent their anger on Grandpa Gu and the others.

Although Grandpa Gu said he had a way, she was still a little worried.

After all, those people were mountain bandits.

And as soon as she said this.

She saw the surrounding maids suddenly smile.

“Little girl, you don’t have to worry.”

Zhao Chan pursed her lips and smiled, “Gu Family Village is safe and sound. As for Northern Wind Stronghold, it has been completely annihilated by the people Young Master sent, including the Great Chieftain, not a single person escaped.”

“Northern Wind Stronghold has all been annihilated?”

Hearing this, Gu Xue was somewhat incredulous.

In her past impression.

Northern Wind Stronghold was the largest bandit stronghold in the entire Lingyun Mountains, its strength was very powerful, and no one dared to provoke them easily.

But now…

This Immortal who saved him could annihilate the entire bandit group with a mere word and a smile?

“Is this true?”

She murmured subconsciously.

It was not surprising that she was so shocked, as the impact of this matter on her was truly too great.

“Girl, you can rest assured!”

“Young Master is the Quasi-Saint Child of Taichu Holy Land, and Taichu Holy Land is the largest power in the entire Eastern Wang Dao Domain. Even Tai'an Dynasty has to rely on it. Young Master’s status is incomparable even to the ruler of Tai'an Dynasty.”

“It’s just a mere bandit stronghold. Annihilating it is as easy as turning over one’s hand!”

Zhao Chan explained with a smile.

This sentence caused a huge stir in Gu Xue’s heart.

She didn’t know what Taichu Holy Land and Eastern Wang Dao Domain were.

But she understood the status of Tai'an Dynasty.

The entire Lingyun Mountains belonged to Tai'an Dynasty.

And listening to this beautiful older sister say.

The ruler of Tai'an Dynasty could not even be compared with the Immortal in front of her. What a high status must this be?

She couldn’t imagine it.

And just as she was still shocked, Chu Mo spoke, “Gu Xue, your cultivation talent is excellent. In time, you will surely become an unparalleled Prodigy. Are you willing to cultivate on my Taihua Peak?”

“Cultivate?”

“Can… can I too?”

Gu Xue hesitated.

She really wanted to cultivate.

But listening to Zhao Chan’s narration, Gu Xue knew that this place called ‘Taichu Holy Land’ was very powerful, and she came from a mountain village, so she felt a little inferior and thought she was not qualified.

“Of course you can!”

“With your talent, being directly listed as a true disciple of Taichu Holy Land is more than enough!”

Chu Mo said with a smile.

“Then… what about my sister? Can she also stay here to cultivate?”

Gu Xue still said with some hesitation.

“Your sister’s talent is also very good, so she can naturally cultivate here like you. Of course, the premise is that you are willing,” Chu Mo said with a smile.

Hearing this.

Gu Xue remained silent for a moment.

In fact, suddenly coming to a strange place, and the other party also inviting her to stay, reason told her that she should not agree for now.

But for some reason.

The scene she saw before she fainted kept flashing through her mind.

That figure standing on the back of the Golden-Winged Great Peng, with unparalleled demeanor, casting his gaze upon her.

Just that one glance left an extremely deep impression of this figure in her heart, enough to make her unforgettable for a lifetime.

And now.

This figure stood before her, inviting her to stay.

This made Gu Xue extremely conflicted for a moment.

Seeing her inner struggle, Chu Mo did not urge her.

He just looked at her with a smile, waiting for her answer.

After a long time.

Gu Xue finally made up her mind.

She suddenly looked up, gazed deeply at Chu Mo, and then nodded heavily.

“I am willing!”
