Venerated Venomous Consort

Gu Xijiu took a look at the carriage and caught an unusual sight. The carriage was indeed exquisite, as the entire carriage was painted elegantly in white. At the top of the carriage, stood a phoenix with its head held high.

These things did not come as a surprise to Gu Xijiu. What surprised her the most was that she finally saw Long Siye. Long Siye was still wearing the same pale blue robes that she last saw him wear. Also, he was holding a loop in his hand that served as a whip. There he sat, on the shaft of the carriage. It turned out that he had become a hostler.

He was not entirely familiar with driving a cart, so the carriage bumped a little over the ruts when he made the stop.

“Idiot!” A stern rebuke could be heard.

The voice sounded like it came from a woman.

“Yes?” Long Siye murmured.

The lady held the curtains as she slowly exited the carriage. The lady was beautiful, but her expression clearly showed that she was annoyed. Obviously, she had a condescending attitude towards Long Siye. “Stretch out your hand!” She fiercely demanded.

Hesitantly, Long Siye did as told. Immediately, there was a gleam of yellow ray flashing from the lady’s hand. Long Siye’s palm took the full impact from the lady’s strike.

The impact was loud and clear; everyone in the square was alarmed. There was a severe injury on Long Siye’s palm. The strike had cut his flesh deep enough to reveal his bone. It was a bloody sight, and his face turned pale while his forehead broke out in cold sweat.

The lady threw a bottle to him like she was giving alms to a beggar. “Idiot, apply this.”

Gu Xijiu was infuriated. Long Siye had been working so hard to ascend. He did it all for her, so he could help her find the way to heaven.

Long Siye’s words still rang in her ears the moment before he ascended. “Xijiu, as you wished, I am finally ascending.”

He was clearly unhappy with his current situation. Gu Xijiu had always thought that ascending to heaven would provide him with better resources and treatment. He certainly did not work his way up here to be deceived.

Before she made a move, the man pulled the corner of her sleeve to stop her and said softly, “Miss, mind your own business. Do not interfere.”

Swiftly, Long Siye leaped the shaft and stood next to the carriage with his head held high. The lady in light blue robes held a golden ruler in her hand. The ruler was no ordinary ruler. Both edges of the ruler were as sharp as the cutting edge of a sword. It shone glamorously under the sun.

She leaped from the carriage and pointed the ruler at Long Siye. “Bend down! How many times do I have to tell you to be aware of that? Your idiocy is beyond redemption.”

Long Siye’s handsome face started to flush with indignation. He clenched his fist without saying anything. The lady in light blue robes decided to hit him with the ruler. “Idiot, how dare you defy me!”

Apparently, the lady’s Kung Fu was extraordinary, judging from the flash of the ruler with every strike. The ruler was aiming at Long Siye’s mouth. Once hit, he would suffer severe injuries on his lips.

As the carriage was indeed eye-catching, many people were attracted by the incident and stared curiously at them. There were different reactions upon seeing the lady’s behavior. Some were surprised. Some were infuriated. Other were already used to it.

The man beside Gu Xijiu heaved a disapproving sigh. “This is really…”

He stopped abruptly when he realized the lady in black disappeared before his eyes.

The lady was standing right next to him, and both of them were standing more than ten feet away from the carriage. However, in an instant, she appeared right next to the carriage. She held a silver rope in her hand, chaining the wrist of the lady in blue. The lady screamed out loud.
