The most difficult journey Gu Xiao has had in the past ten years was taking Chu Xun back to Jinshui City.
There are endless assassins in the Soul Burial Palace. Gu Xiao has escaped death several times. Even though he is skilled and brave, he is now almost like a frightened bird. Even a loud gust of wind at night can wake him up.
It only took him two days to get here, but it took him five days to go back. Those killers were omnipresent. Even a thick old tree on the side of the road might suddenly set a trap for you when you pass by.
After snatching a knife from the dead man, Gu Xiao took Chu Xun to hide from place to place like playing hide-and-seek, and used all the skills he had learned when he was a child to get into trouble and avoid disasters, but he was still bitten. After five days, Chu Xun was injured more and more, and Gu Xiao was exhausted to the extreme.
He had never been so grateful to his master and mistress for their unremitting teaching over the years, and he had never felt so deeply that he was willing but unable to do anything.
