Gu Long's World: Starting with the Legend of Chu Liuxiang

Chapter 43 The Holy Cult of the Hemp Robe

Chu Liuxiang shouted, "Ai Qing!"

The woman by the stream did not hear the call; they were too far away.

Jiang Fengyue smiled and said, "Could this be your lover?"

He knew that this wasn't the person Chu Liuxiang was obsessed with, but he still couldn't help teasing Chu Liuxiang.

Chu Liuxiang shook his head and murmured, "No, but she was the first girl I met at Wanshou Golden Garden. All the strange events started from the time she appeared."

Ai Qing held a white jade bottle in both hands, drawing water from the mountain spring. Once the bottle was full, she stood up, turned around, and left, as if she wanted to return to the depths of the white clouds.

Chu Liuxiang became even more anxious upon seeing this and shouted loudly, "Ai Qing, wait a moment!"

She still didn't hear it.

As Chu Liuxiang called out, Jiang Fengyue had already flown over the mountain spring and gently landed in front of Ai Qing.

"Check-in!"

"Signed in with Ai Qing successfully, gained five years of internal energy."

Ai Qing was startled, and the white jade bottle in her hand fell to the ground, spilling the water she had just collected.

She exclaimed in surprise, "Who are you? How dare you come here?"

Jiang Fengyue laughed and said, "You probably don't recognize me, but look back at the person behind you. Do you recognize him?"

Ai Qing turned around, and Chu Liuxiang was right behind her. She frowned slightly, but then her expression returned to normal.

She saw Chu Liuxiang, but didn't even show the surprise of seeing Jiang Fengyue, because Jiang Fengyue's appearance here was completely unexpected.

Ai Qing pretended that she was looking at a stranger.

Chu Liuxiang forced a smile and said, "It's been a long time. I didn't expect to see you here."

Ai Qing remained expressionless, coldly asking, "Who are you? Why are you blocking my way?"

Chu Liuxiang exclaimed, "You don't recognize me?"

Ai Qing coldly replied, "I've never even seen you before."

Chu Liuxiang said, "But I have seen you before and recognize you. Your name is Ai Qing."

Ai Qing said, "I don't recognize Ai Qing either, get out of the way!"

Suddenly, she swung her hand toward Chu Liuxiang.

Chu Liuxiang had no choice but to dodge.

Ai Qing left again, and Jiang Fengyue did not stop her, letting her walk into the depths of the white clouds.

Ai Qing walked slowly, as if she wasn't afraid of being followed.

Jiang Fengyue sighed, "Since she's pretending not to recognize you, she must have her reasons."

Chu Liuxiang touched his nose, looking a little embarrassed, and said, "But she's the only clue we can find."

Jiang Fengyue laughed and said, "If that's the case, why don't we hurry up and follow her? Wherever she goes, we'll follow."

As they spoke, they were already close behind Ai Qing.

The road was narrow and rugged. At the end of the mountain road, there were only white clouds. No paradise or magnificent palace could be seen.

Ai Qing walked, with Jiang Fengyue and Chu Liuxiang following behind.

Two more people suddenly appeared among the white clouds.

The two middle-aged men, dressed in hempen robes and wearing tall hats, had deathly pale faces, devoid of any color, and exuded an indescribable indifference and arrogance.

When Chu Liuxiang saw them, he instantly understood everything. The elderly couple who had asked him to leave Zhang Jiejie that day were also dressed in hemp clothing, so they must be the elders of the Ma family.

The mountain breeze gently dispersed the white clouds, which then gathered again.

The two middle-aged men in hempen robes and tall hats still stood coldly among the white clouds, coldly watching Jiang Fengyue and Chu Liuxiang.

The shorter man in hemp clothing, who looked more imposing, suddenly said, "Where did you come from? You'd better hurry back there."

His voice was equally cold and arrogant, like a god issuing commands to his people.

Chu Liuxiang was furious because he believed that the old couple in hemp clothing he had met that day had taken Zhang Jiejie away.

Jiang Fengyue remained calm and asked with a smile, "Why?"

The man in hemp clothing said, "Because this is not a place for mortals."

Jiang Fengyue said, "Isn't this a place for mortals? Aren't you a mortal?"

The man in hemp clothing said, "I am not."

His expression was indifferent, as if he really regarded himself as a god. Jiang Fengyue really didn't know what to say.

"Check-in!"

"Signing in as a member of the Ma Yi Cult has been successful, granting ten years of internal energy."

"Signing in as a member of the Ma Yi Cult has been successful, granting ten years of internal energy."

Jiang Fengyue was secretly surprised; it seemed that the people of the Ma Yi Sect all possessed considerable internal strength.

Chu Liuxiang calmed his anger and laughed, "If you're not human, what are you?"

The man in hemp clothing said, "You shouldn't have come, and you shouldn't have asked so many questions."

Chu Liuxiang said, "I've not only come, but I've also already asked."

Another person dressed in hemp clothing suddenly said, "Now that you're here, you don't need to leave."

Chu Liuxiang glanced at the two men in hemp clothing and said coldly, "I never wanted to go back. I will never return until I find the person I'm looking for."

Jiang Fengyue looked at the two men in hemp clothing and said, "If you want to make a move, what are you waiting for?"

The two men in hemp clothing exchanged a glance, and then suddenly turned around at the same time.

Everyone turns around, but the way they turn is different from everyone else's.

Their bodies turned to the right and then to the left, not only moving freely but also constantly.

Just then, the two men in hemp clothing turned around at the same time and circled around Jiang Fengyue, their movements becoming faster and faster.

Jiang Fengyue laughed and asked, "Are you two performing a spinning top act?"

The two men in hemp clothing suddenly attacked at the same time.

They only had four hands, but the shadows of those hands looked like twenty or thirty, slapping at Jiang Fengyue from all directions.

Most people can't tell which hand is real and which is fake.

But before them stood Jiang Fengyue, who was tired of their tricks and gathered her inner strength in her palm.

"Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap!" A series of sounds rang out.

Jiang Fengyue kept whipping the two men in hemp clothing like she was spinning a top.

The top quickly came to a stop, and the two men in hemp clothing were knocked to the ground. Their arrogance and indifference vanished, replaced by visible surprise.

Upon seeing this, Ai Qing could not hide the panic and shock in her heart.

The shorter man in hemp clothing asked in astonishment, "Who exactly are you? How can you possess such terrifying internal strength?"

Jiang Fengyue said coldly, "Take us to where you live."

The short, hemp-clad man shouted, "Impossible! You'll never get one..."

At this moment, another man in hemp clothing gave him a wink. He was thinking of taking Jiang Fengyue inside so that the other experts in the sect could deal with him.

The short man in hemp clothing changed his mind and said, "Alright, I'll take you there."

The path into the mountains was rugged and complicated, and the man in hemp clothing led Jiang Fengyue and Chu Liuxiang on many detours, so even if they walked it several times, they would have a hard time remembering the path.

At the true end of the mountain road, shrouded in mist, lies a stone mountain.

There was a huge stone gate in front of the rocky mountain. There were two men in hemp clothing guarding the gate. The man in hemp clothing who was leading the way went up and exchanged a few words with them.

The stone gate slowly opened, and Chu Liuxiang rushed in first, while Jiang Fengyue was unhurried, because he saw the way the gatekeeper in hemp clothing was staring at him, as if he were looking at a dead man.

Jiang Fengyue returned their cold expression, then slowly walked into the rocky mountain.
