Chapter 731: Chapter 389: Telling Lies with Eyes Wide Open_2

The purple-robed girl’s eyes flashed with a trace of doubt.

It was obvious she didn’t believe Gu Sheng’s explanation.

”Stumbled into the Demon Nest?”

She sneered and retorted, ”Do you honestly think I’d believe such a ridiculous excuse?”

Gu Sheng felt a chill run down his spine, knowing he had to be even more cautious.

”I... I really just stumbled in, I didn’t know this was Demon Clan territory.”

Gu Sheng put on a pitiful face, doing his best to make his voice sound more sincere.

The purple-robed girl’s expression grew even darker as she took a step forward, closing the distance between her and Gu Sheng.

In that instant, a faint floral fragrance emanating from her wafted over.

It was calming and elegant, a natural and refreshing scent.

This fragrance brought a sense of peace to the heart. If one could smell such a delightful aroma every day, accompanied by such a stunning beauty, it would certainly be worth dying for.

Just as Gu Sheng was momentarily lost in the sensory pleasure of both sight and smell, a voice as cold as ice rang out.

”You’d better tell the truth, or... I’ll carve you into a thousand pieces and make you taste my wrath.”

Gu Sheng felt an immense pressure crash down on him.

Judging by the way the Ji family subordinates obeyed this purple-robed girl’s every command, it was clear she wasn’t bluffing.

He needed to come up with a better excuse immediately.

Otherwise, he truly would be diced into pieces.

”Actually, I’m a cultivator. I encountered some problems in my cultivation, so I came here looking for a solution,” he quickly fabricated a new story.

”I heard there were some ancient cultivation techniques in this place, so that’s why I came.”

As Gu Sheng spoke, he let out a faint sigh.

A flicker of curiosity appeared in the purple-robed girl’s eyes. ”Ancient cultivation techniques?”

”Hah!”

She let out a cold snort. ”Your big mouth sure is good at spouting nonsense!”

Despair overwhelmed Gu Sheng, knowing he could no longer craft a better excuse.

Now, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and stick to his story.

”I swear, everything I’ve said is true,” Gu Sheng declared as he raised three fingers on his right hand above his head. ”If I’m lying, may lightning strike me dead and deny me a good death.”

After speaking, Gu Sheng secretly lamented, ”Heavens, please don’t take this seriously—I’m just messing around with a beauty. You can treat this as nonsense, I beg you...”

Meanwhile, the purple-robed girl watched Gu Sheng closely, as though trying to judge if there was any truth in his words.

After a long while, she slowly spoke, ”Fine, I’ll trust you for now, but you’d better remember your words. If I find out you deliberately tried to deceive me, you’ll deal with the consequences yourself.”

”Phew...”

Gu Sheng let out a sigh of relief, knowing he had temporarily escaped danger.

”Yes, yes, you can trust me—I wouldn’t dare lie to you,” Gu Sheng nodded repeatedly.

At that moment, Yan Ruyu’s senses also detected the danger surrounding Gu Sheng.

After fending off Ji Haoyue, she immediately activated the Holy Weapon of the Demon Emperor.

In an instant, a golden shield enveloped Gu Sheng.

A rain of ten thousand golden lotuses then descended from the skies like shooting stars.

The purple-robed girl’s subordinates didn’t even have time to react before they were struck by this overwhelming power, leaving them dead on the spot.

”This...”

The purple-robed girl’s face paled at the sight.

She hadn’t expected Yan Ruyu’s power to be this immense.

Under the onslaught of the golden lotuses, she managed to dodge with difficulty but ultimately couldn’t completely evade the attack. A powerful force knocked her into the nearby gorge.

Amid the chaos, Yan Ruyu’s voice suddenly echoed in Gu Sheng’s mind: ”Gu Sheng, I’ll lure away the Ji family’s forces. Take this chance to escape. Hurry, don’t hesitate!”

Gu Sheng’s heart trembled upon hearing her voice through spiritual transmission, realizing the situation clearly.

”Your Highness, be careful!”

Gu Sheng responded in the same way before quickly searching for a chance to escape.

By the edge of the gorge, the purple-robed girl’s silhouette was faintly visible amidst the dust.

Her eyes flashed with unwillingness as her body trembled in pain.

She hadn’t expected to suffer such a severe defeat in this place.

Elsewhere, Yan Ruyu’s figure had already vanished into the distant sky.

The Ji family forces’ attention had been successfully diverted to her.

Gu Sheng seized the opportunity, slipping away amidst the chaotic environment to the other side of the gorge.

Suddenly, he noticed an entire swarm of Ji family members flying overhead.

Gu Sheng looked up and saw that, although they were all chasing in Yan Ruyu’s direction, if they discovered him, he’d also be doomed.

What’s more, the purple-robed girl was likely an important figure in the Ji family. Taking her as a hostage might be a good bargaining chip.

With that thought, Gu Sheng immediately dashed toward the purple-robed girl’s direction.

Before long, he found her lying beside a rock at the edge of the gorge, looking rather disheveled.

As Gu Sheng approached, he saw that her face was pale, and dried blood clung to the corner of her mouth.

Clearly, the golden lotuses had inflicted significant damage on her.

Gu Sheng knew this was his chance and that he had to take it.

Without hesitation, he swiftly summoned his cauldron and pressed it down on the purple-robed girl.

”Ah...!”

The purple-robed girl immediately felt a massive pressure, letting out a cry of pain.

In an instant, her body was pinned beneath the weight of the cauldron, unable to move.

She looked at Gu Sheng nervously, her eyes filled with fear and unease.

”You... what are you going to do?”

Her voice trembled as she questioned him.

She was fully aware that, under these circumstances, she was completely at Gu Sheng’s mercy.

If the man before her decided to do something unspeakable, she would be utterly helpless.

Gu Sheng looked at her coldly and said, ”Don’t be afraid. I just need you as a hostage. As long as you cooperate, I won’t hurt you.”

”A... hostage?”

A flicker of pleading flashed in the purple-robed girl’s eyes as she desperately said, ”Let me go. I can guarantee the Ji family won’t harm you.”

Gu Sheng shook his head. ”No, I can’t take that risk. For now, you’re my shield.”

Despair crept into the purple-robed girl’s eyes. She knew she had the weaker hand and couldn’t resist Gu Sheng.

She could only try to stay calm and search for an opportunity to escape.

At the same time, she bitterly regretted not killing Gu Sheng earlier. Then she wouldn’t have ended up in this situation.

”Fine, I’ll cooperate.”

Her voice was laced with reluctant resignation.

Gu Sheng nodded, feeling somewhat reassured.

Just as a delicate truce was formed, Gu Sheng’s Divine Sense suddenly detected a powerful energy fluctuation.

This energy was extraordinarily strong and hurtling toward their location at alarming speed.

Gu Sheng’s heart tightened, understanding that this was far from normal.

It was likely a Ji family expert had tracked them down.

The purple-robed girl seemed to sense it too. Her face turned pale, and she cried out loudly, ”I’m here! I’m here!”

Gu Sheng wasted no time and acted immediately.

He grabbed hold of the purple-robed girl and turned to flee deeper into the gorge.

The purple-robed girl, unwilling to accept this, pounded on Gu Sheng in protest.

”Let me go! Let me go!”

However, given her injuries from the golden lotuses, her punches were no more than an annoying itch to Gu Sheng.

Her erratic struggles, though, were beginning to irritate him.

Stopping in his tracks, Gu Sheng quickly took action.

Between heavy breaths, he sealed off the purple-robed girl’s spiritual sea, even restraining her physical body to prevent her from breaking free in the chaos.

With everything settled, Gu Sheng hoisted her up and continued his mad dash.

However, the gorge’s terrain was treacherous and slippery.

Now operating under immense stress, Gu Sheng made a fatal misstep. His foot slipped, and both he and the purple-robed girl lost their balance.

Under the force of gravity, the two plummeted into the depths of the gorge.

Amid the fall, Gu Sheng thought he heard the sound of flowing water below—it seemed there was an underground river at the bottom.

”Ahhh!!!”

Both of them screamed uncontrollably as they plunged down.
