Chapter 196: One Gu Bailu Is Enough
Gu Bailu looked calm, but her heart was shaken.
Was the Sky Splitting Mirror the heirloom of the Gu family that was stolen by Nan Ningxin?
Then, why did her master say that it had never all been gathered together?
“Are there many pieces of the Sky Splitting Mirror?” Gu Bailu asked.
“The Sky Splitting Mirror is comprised of five pieces which, when combined, will rule the universe.”
So, to save her master, she needed the Water Glimmer Stone, and to get the Water Glimmer Stone, she had to use the Sky Splitting Mirror to go to Heavenly Palace Cliff.
To obtain the Sky Splitting Mirror, she had to find the five parts!
It wasn’t an easy task.
But she had to accomplish it, despite the obstacles.
“Master, wait for me. I’ll gather the pieces of the Sky Splitting Mirror, whatever it may take.”
She was willing to sell her soul to the devil for the Water Glimmer Stone.
Gu Bailu’s face was full of determination.
The old man looked at her in surprise. “You think you can?”
She didn’t have any spiritual power, and her Heavenly Eye hadn’t been opened, either.
“Master…” Gu Bailu was embarrassed.
She indeed wasn’t strong enough to convince her master.
It was her fault that she hadn’t learned her skills diligently back then.
It was understandable that her master looked down on her.
“She has me.’ Feng Qingtian stood next to her and stared at the old man coldly.
Nobody was allowed to underestimate his woman.
The old man looked at Feng Qingtian with complicated feelings.
Miyasi leaned close. “Master, rest assured. There’s still me. We’ll work together to gather the pieces of the Sky Splitting Mirror.”
The old man ignored him and Gu Bailu, and said to Feng Qingtian, “Let’s talk in private.”
Feng Qingtian nodded and released Gu Bailu.
Gu Bailu backed off obediently. She knew that she had to ask for Feng Qingtian’s help to gather the pieces of the Sky Splitting Mirror.
Even though there were grudges between them, she wouldn’t hesitate to give him her life to save her master.
Although she couldn’t save her parents, she could at least save her master.
After Gu Bailu and Miyasi were far away, Feng Qingtian asked first, “Why do you pretend that you don’t know her?”
While Gu Bailu didn’t have any capabilities, she wasn’t so silly as to mistake him for someone else.
“I’m not pretending.”
“You’re a rarely-seen sorcerer. It’s impossible that you don’t know her.”
The old man stared at him. “You’re also one of the strongest men in the world. Why do you not know her?”
Feng Qingtian gazed at him. “Tell me who she is.”
“I don’t know her.”
“How will you know her?” Feng Qingtian asked intensely.
“Unchain me and get me out of here, and maybe I’ll remember who she is,” the old man said casually.
That was his condition.
“Alright.” Feng Qingtian didn’t hesitate.
The old man was surprised, but warned him, “However, I won’t be able to lift your curse.”
Feng Qingtian said coldly, “I don’t need you to.”
One Gu Bailu was enough.
He wasn’t even interested in Nan Ningxin, let alone other women.
The old man chuckled. “You don’t have any other requests?”
He didn’t think that Feng Qingtian was so amicable.
“Let Gu Bailu know that I’m the only one who can gather all the pieces of the Sky Splitting Mirror.”
The old man was stunned. “That’s all?”
“That’s all.”
An hour later, Feng Qingtian walked toward Gu Bailu after negotiating with the old man.
Gu Bailu was already anxious after the long wait. She ran toward him in a hurry.
