Dance Of The Phoenix
94. Still alive?

On a sunny morning, Gu Yuena in the main residence of the Clan Leader sat waiting on the seat with Xiao Hei in her arms.

He came early in the morning after slightly judging Bai Youzhe when he woke up. To be more precise, he was on the run from that man.

Given how that handsome face had the image of a turtle on its head, Gu Yuena could barely stop laughing.

Unfortunately the pleasure had to turn serious when Gu Yuena saw someone coming to her. The woman in the green dress looked at him hatefully. Who else if not Luo Zhiyi?

"I told you, I won't let you destroy the clan through that mask of yours. You think I don't know who you really are?" Luo Zhiyi directly sprayed out a series of sharp sentences to attack Gu Yuena.

Gu Yuena who was not standing from her place actually crossed her legs, then looked at Luo Zhiyi with a calm look.

"Then, what can you do?" tanyakanya.

"Your Majesty is not here, so your existence without that support has no influence whatsoever. You think the elders really don't know about you and take you for granted?" Luo Zhiyi snorted. "Gu Yuena, you've never been accepted into this place."

"Huh, so so." Gu Yuena looked to put on a smile. "To be honest, I don't need a confession to survive. You thought that I was the Princess of Linghun Palace, but you still have the courage to meet me alone in such a desolate place. Don't know where you got it."

"This is the Luo Clan, not the Duke's Residence or Linghun Palace."

"It makes no difference to me." Gu Yuena squinted her eyes.

As he got up from the chair, Luo Zhiyi took a wary step back. This made Gu Yuena laugh.

Luo Zhiyi's face grew dark.

"Ah, sorry, I'm let go." Gu Yuena stopped her prisoner. The boy in front of him, although their age was not much different, still looked very clumsy.

It just seems loud and annoying, but mentally flabby. Though Gu Yuena just stood up because of the aches too long to sit.

"Gu Yuena, don't think you can play me!" Luo Zhiyi was very upset about Gu Yuena's attitude.

"I never play games." Gu Yuena crossed her chest. "If you're not a member of an important clan, I've already killed you, you know."

"You ...."

"I have no interest in talking to children who never learn from their own mistakes. Let alone a foolish brat who blamed others for his incompetence. You are the legitimate daughter of the Luo Clan, instead acting like a stray dog."

Gu Yuena's words pierced Luo Zhiyi as deeply as possible. The woman was so upset that she ran out of words.

"Who is whose dog. You are not aware of your situation as a Linghun Palace dog!"

"Oh? Then I am very proud of being a loyal dog that is not troublesome, unlike someone," Gu Yuena replied more sarcastically.

The labile Luo Zhiyi could not hold back his emotions and raised a hand about to slap Gu Yuena. However, her hand was stuck just in the air just as it was about to touch that pretty face.

Gu Yuena's magic knocked him out invisibly.

Gu Yuena tilted her head. "Be nice if you don't want to get into trouble."

The arrival of the elders made Luo Zhiyi lower her hands in a resentful feeling. Face pouting. Contrary to Gu Yuena who looked very calm as if nothing had happened.

Gu Yuena saw the arrival of the elders as well as Bai Youzhe among them. His eyebrows rise to the top. Why is Bai Youzhe here?

Ah, he remembered his manner of drawing a turtle on Bai Youzhe's face.

By the way, the black ink pictured of the turtle had disappeared. Gu Yuena regretted not being able to see that funny thing again. It was rare to be able to insult Bai Youzhe directly.

"Miss Gu, sorry to keep you waiting for so long."

Gu Yuena smiled. "I have friends chatting, so can spend a little time."

They glanced at Luo Zhiyi who looked dark-faced restraining anger. It seems like something bad happened.

When viewed, Gu Yuena's mood was excellent. Surely Luo Zhiyi had lost the fight. Very legible.

"Then .. we just go straight. Miss can see the condition of the Clan Chief first."

The elders directly directed Gu Yuena into the Clan Chief's room. Walking side by side beside Bai Youzhe, Gu Yuena secretly glanced at her to ascertain the remaining ink marks.

"Tell me if you want to keep looking, I'll let you see the fullest."

Gu Yuena nodded. "So I can cross your face again?"

Bai Youzhe looked at him disapprovingly. "I mean look at a face without a streak. Next time, I won't let you cross my handsome face again."

Gu Yuena hissed silently while turning her face away. Regardless of the ignorant Bai Youzhe, he walked side by side with the elders avoiding Bai Youzhe while ridiculing her.

Arriving at the Klan Chairman's room, the doctor who treated the Clan Leader explained further about the deteriorating condition of the chairman. Overall, that doctor could only diagnose Luo Wei's physical condition and spiritual strength. For the matter of soul destruction, only Gu Yuena understood it.

Gu Yuena came forward to inspect directly and exercise soul control to neutralize Luo Wei's soul condition. Everyone saw it in the room how the process happened.

His blood-red iris saw the man who a few years ago was still eagerly betrothed Luo Yi and Gu Yuan to the point of making Gu Shan flounder. It's been a long time.

Based on what Luo Zhiyi said, everyone here already knew his identity. It must be thanks to the elders in Tianshuang Palace. Maybe they're telling me as a warning to be careful of him.

While curing Luo Wei's condition was a test from the elders. If Gu Yuena succeeded, then it was clear which side Gu Yuena was on. But if not, then be prepared for worse risks.

He should be able to recover Luo Wei's soul.

In addition, Luo Zhiyi who insisted on stopping Gu Yuena was being held back by the guards outside the room. It made Luo Zhiyi be taken out of the residence so as not to disturb the calmness.

"What's wrong, it's just a broken soul." Somehow Gu Yuena was agitated. When the soul force was unleashed, its red iris shone and opened a visibly real vision of the soul.

There was something that bound Luo Wei's soul. It was a soul force of extremely powerful controlling nature, almost the same as Gu Yuena's.

When the soul force was used, Gu Yuena's mind was in the dark soul realm overcoming the fragmentary strands of the soul. His soul power began to move to repair that broken soul, or even nearly shattered into pieces due to the twists and turns of the foreign soul force.

Gu Yuena did not use all of her strength just to refine a soul. He's not in a hurry. If it were, it would have to make sure that the alien soul force was released to be taken over by it.

But when the alien soul force was forced off by it, the black fog within the soul force suddenly just slid and condensed as if forming something ... or someone?

Gu Yuena's eyes were wide. He stepped aside to the side, letting the figure slip before finally forming a male figure.

A stranger with a mask on his face. It was the figure who led the assault on Yuansu Palace some time ago!

"You ...."

Still alive?

The figure simply disappeared, while Gu Yuena returned to reality in a pensive state. This makes many people curious.

"Miss, is there a problem?" One of the elders asked curiously.

"That's ...." Gu Yuena looked clumsy. He looked towards Luo Wei, then said, "Please check her condition."

The doctor immediately examined Luo Wei's condition thoroughly. The attention of the elders was immediately directed at the chief.

Bai Youzhe realized that something was wrong with Gu Yuena when she saw Gu Yuena's nervousness as well as her fists that were clenched tightly behind the clothes strands. Although Gu Yuena was as calm as possible, in Bai Youzhe's eyes, Gu Yuena could not hide her feelings at all.

The elders who heard him heaved a sigh of relief and began to rejoice. Although Luo Wei was still unconscious, it only took her some time to awaken in a quick time and show some progress.

"It would be better for the Clan Chief to keep resting with the sedative. His soul was unstable, it would still hurt him after being freed from the soul force attack." Gu Yuena hurriedly gave a suggestion not to have a fatal impact. These people are too excited.

They immediately nodded obeying what Gu Yuena said.

"Since Miss has said it, we have no right to argue."

"Before, thank you for helping us resolve the matter of the Clan Chief. We owe it to Miss Gu."

The elders immediately thanked Gu Yuena even more burdened. Though Gu Yuena was just trying, you know. This is the first time heals the soul.

"I can't accept that thank you right now. The Clan Chief is still in healing. I hope to treat him with Mr. Doctor until the problem of damage to the soul has been resolved." Gu Yuena tried to be as normal as possible.

"Alright, we will do our best so that Miss Gu is not lacking."

The elders were very happy that one clan matter had been found the solution. Although it wasn't completely finished yet, they were already able to calm down.

It seemed like the concerns of the palace elders towards Gu Yuena were in vain.

"Using soul power was too draining for Gu Yuena. We've got it here." Bai Youzhe seemed to be eager to take Gu Yuena away. The man directly guided Gu Yuena's arm out of the room without waiting for the elders' reaction.

Those who are left behind can only be silent.

When it came out, Gu Yuena and Bai Youzhe crossed paths with Luo Zhiyi who ran away from the guards. The woman looked at Gu Yuena cynically, then went inside the room in a hurry.

It's only natural that he's worried.

"Are you okay?" Bai Youzhe ignored Luo Zhiyi, choosing to look at Gu Yuena worriedly.

Gu Yuena looked distracted and just kept quiet. He bit his own lips so worriedly, then looked at Bai Youzhe in front of him.

"You know he's alive? Hall Leader Linghun?" Gu Yuena finally asked. Only Bai Youzhe could answer his question.

Bai Youzhe was surprised at Gu Yuena's question. It must have something to do with the charging of Luo Wei just now.  "What do you see?"

"I should have killed him. I saw it for myself he exploded, my phoenix couldn't possibly miss."

Bai Youzhe cupped Gu Yuena's shoulder and looked at her deeply. "Nana, calm yourself."

"He killed my teacher in front of my eyes. He killed everything." Gu Yuena was still very furious. His palm was injured due to nail pressure when clenching his hands so tightly.

Bai Youzhe hugged Gu Yuena in order to calm the chaotic woman down. Gu Yuena panicked and was traumatized by the attack. It's only natural that he was so screwed when he found out that the perpetrator was still alive.

If that person was already dead, Luo Wei should not have experienced this. That was what Gu Yuena thought. That person was actually still alive after the great battle that had barely taken his life.

How strong is that guy? It could even still attack the Luo Clan so easily.

Gu Yuena felt that her revenge this time had failed. He had never felt this kind of anger before. He never fails in revenge!

"You didn't fail." Bai Youzhe said in Gu Yuena's ear in a low tone, "Your life is not in vain, she is dead."

"But—"

"The person who destroyed Yuansu Palace and attacked the Luo Clan was indeed the same person, but also different simultaneously. You killed one of them for revenge. Your efforts are not in vain."

"What right?" Although it was a bit unreasonable, but Gu Yuena had no other thoughts to refute it.

"true."

"Then ... he just looked at me in the soul realm."

"That's the other part, not the one that destroyed Yuansu Palace." Bai Youzhe said as she rubbed Gu Yuena's back to give her some comfort.

"How can you?" Gu Yuena was too shocked.

"There is some magic that can make a person become more. You've never failed and killed one of them."

"That means the guy's still around, right?"

Bai Youzhe was silent for a while. "Yes. But it's not time you think about it."

Gu Yuena nodded slowly. Despite feeling angry, he was happy to learn that his revenge had not really failed. It's just not finished perfectly.

In the end, all these events were orchestrated by his own mother.

Can she fight the woman who gave birth to her? Gu Yuena did not want to imagine it.

Besides, Bai Youzhe seemed to have her own thoughts. I don't know what he was thinking, he looked anxious until he tightened his embrace.

"Suddenly I remembered something." Bai Youzhe took off her embrace to pick up something.

A jet-black dagger came out from his hand and was shown to Gu Yuena. It was an extremely pointed spiral-shaped dagger with a powerful aura.

Gu Yuena remembered what kind of dagger it was.

"Dagger killer witch?" Gu Yuena was surprised to see that the thing she had not seen for a long time had now reappeared.

When at the black market auction, Bai Youzhe had bought it at a high price. At that time Gu Yuena wanted it, but the prestige asked. (There is in Chapter 12 for those of you who forget)

"I changed the name to red moon dagger." Bai Youzhe said casually.

"It's so hot."

"The name is ugly and unsuitable for witches to use."

"Why are you showing this to me?" Gu Yuena asked. Bai Youzhe simply looked at him, giving an eye gesture. Just then Gu Yuena came to her senses through the last sentence that Bai Youzhe had uttered just now. "Forku?"

Bai Youzhe put on a big smile. "I've always seen you fight without real weapons. So I thought maybe you didn't find a suitable weapon. You wanted this dagger when you saw it, so I thought about giving it to you."

Gu Yuena received the dagger while looking at each inch. Exactly as he saw it. The difference was, Bai Youzhe had covered the terrifying aura of that dagger.

He remembered, this dagger should be the legacy of the lost Linghun Palace. Does this belong to his grandfather?

Gu Yuena suddenly remembered something. Her red iris glanced at Bai Youzhe. "Nothing is free in this world. Don't be a hypocrite, you want something."

Bai Youzhe looked too calm when she said that. "Then pay with your bedtime tonight."

"That's all?" If it was just that, without even giving a gift, the man would have definitely cut his sleeping hours again.

Bai Youzhe nodded like an innocent brat.

Gu Yuena doubted him, but there was no reason for her not to believe it. The man's mind was hard to read so it sometimes made him very curious.

What was Bai Youzhe planning at the moment?
