Chapter 1695: Chapter 1781: The Saintess’s Sorrow
"Fool, what nonsense are you spouting? You won’t die, I won’t let you die. I’ve already found the Saintess!"
"Really, you’ve actually found the Saintess!"
Staring at Su Xuan, Xue Mengxue’s eyes widened in disbelief. Honestly, he couldn’t quite believe Su Xuan had really found the legendary Saintess!
"Yes, it’s Xuan!"
Su Xuan said softly, still feeling a bit melancholic. Reflecting on it, this matter was indeed unfair to Xuan, but there was no choice. If Xuan wanted to revive the Gu Poison family, she must enhance her strength and control the entire Miaojiang Gu Poison. Only then could she truly expand the Gu Poison family.
Of course, the cost was immense as well, requiring her to merge with the Gu Emperor, a harsh reality for a girl of eighteen or nineteen like Xuan.
"Xuan is the Saintess?"
Concerning Xuan’s identity, Xue Mengxue was also shocked for a moment. Actually, he knew Xuan; this little girl was not only kind-hearted but also smart and astute. He never imagined she was the Saintess.
"Yes!"
Su Xuan spoke while standing up, coming to the place where he had hidden the Gu Emperor, then reached out and took out a brick, removing the Gu Emperor. Staring at this object, Su Xuan felt it was harsh to Xuan. Comparing it to himself, if he had to take on something like this and live a celibate life, he probably wouldn’t survive.
"Mengxue, now that you’re pregnant, don’t run around too much. Stay here and take care of yourself. I’ll ask Old Hu to get a nanny for you later!"
Su Xuan was thinking, in any case, he should first help Xuan fuse with the Gu Emperor. Now that Xuan had decided to rebuild the family, he would support her.
Holding the Gu Emperor, he went to Xuan’s room and gently knocked on the door. When Xuan saw Su Xuan, a warm smile appeared on her face.
"Big Brother Su, are things outside resolved?"
"Not so fast, but those matters are trivial. Xuan, this is the Gu Emperor, take it!"
Su Xuan handed the Buddha-like Gu Emperor to Xuan. As Xuan saw this legendary Gu Emperor, a unique emotion rose in her heart. She knew that once she merged with it, she would have to live a life of abstinence. Actually, the thing Xuan could not let go of was Su Xuan, a fact he also knew, which often made him feel awkward.
Being over ten years older than Xuan, he had always treated her like a sister, never expecting she would develop feelings for him, making Su Xuan feel particularly burdened by this affection.
Receiving the Gu Emperor, an extremely complex expression appeared on Xuan’s face. After a long while, she spoke.
"Big Brother Su, can you hold me?"
As Xuan spoke, her face turned crimson. She actually understood the domineering nature of the Gu Emperor better than Su Xuan. Using it would make her Gu Technique much more powerful, but she would have to maintain a life of abstinence; otherwise, she’d easily suffer the Gu Emperor’s backlash.
Watching Xuan, Su Xuan also felt helpless. A blossoming young girl should be filled with fantasies and longings for love but had to give up all these emotions. How could this be fair to her?
Gently hugging Xuan, she tightly embraced Su Xuan, tears streaming down as she looked at the man she could never let go of. She knew, once she fused with the Gu Emperor, she would have to sever all emotional ties.
"Xuan, it’s been hard on you!"
Su Xuan wanted to suggest giving it up, but he knew once this little girl made up her mind, he couldn’t change it. Moreover, he was conflicted; if Xuan couldn’t merge with it, what would happen to Xue Mengxue? Su Xuan had previously sensed with Primordial Qi that Xue Mengxue’s Gu Poison was always lurking.
After a long time, Xuan looked up at Su Xuan and said seriously.
"Big Brother Su, fusing with the Gu Emperor requires an absolutely quiet environment, and it might take about seven days!"
"There’s an underground villa beneath Heroic Manor, I’ll have someone clean it out for you!"
After leaving Xuan’s room, Su Xuan spoke with Brother Meng to help clean out the underground villa for Xuan to use, then went to Old Hu.
"Let’s take a turn around Cape of Good Hope!"
Su Xuan was not willing for the Eighteen Sword to remain in those people’s hands; he was prepared to take each of those despicable villains down one by one.
"Boss, are we going alone? The people at Cape of Good Hope are ruthless. They have always been ruthless. Back then, three brothers got hacked to death by them!"
"What, they were hacked to death by those people!"
Su Xuan’s heart filled with anger. For the deaths of three among the Eighteen Sword, he was very angry; those three had died protecting Xue Mengxue, ending up hacked to pieces.
"Yes, it was them!"
Hu Shulin also gritted his teeth, eager to crush those beasts at Cape of Good Hope to ashes.
"Damn, they truly deserve to die!"
Su Xuan twitched, a chilling killing aura radiating from him, forming a substantial force.
"Gulp!"
Hu Shulin gulped, sensing the immense murderous aura from his boss, giving him a feeling of impending doom.
As Su Xuan drove with Hu Shulin to Cape of Good Hope, the place was already brightly lit and crowded, business exceptionally good.
Upon entering Cape of Good Hope, Su Xuan and Hu Shulin saw the crowds inside, and a smile played on Su Xuan’s lips.
"There are quite a lot of people!"
Su Xuan remarked with a smile.
"Yeah, it used to be our property, now it’s occupied by others!"
Hu Shulin said angrily as they found a seat in a corner, the waiter bringing two glasses of water. After ordering a drink, Su Xuan examined the surroundings.
"Boss, should we, like last time, actively pick a fight later?"
"Well... using the same method twice isn’t fun!"
Su Xuan pursed his lips, in his worldview, he never repeated tactics.
"Then, what do you suggest?"
Hu Shulin was curious, suspecting Su Xuan had come up with a new strategy. Hu Shulin had always been impressed by Su Xuan’s methods.
