Chapter 946: The Moon Hides Behind the Clouds
Now, with defenses in place at the Gu Family, it's indeed quite tricky.
Moreover, those gemstones in the Treasure Room are very difficult to retrieve.
The last time, he returned empty-handed.
Therefore, this matter requires careful planning.
However, time is pressing, and it can't be delayed too long.
Dongfang Yu, somewhat recovered, returned to the living room holding Xiao Bai.
It was already the early hours of the morning.
The night remained perfectly dark.
The distant streetlights continued to glow.
Even at such a late hour, there were still people and cars crossing the street.
For the sake of life, for the sake of tomorrow, these ordinary people shuttle between day and night...
He tiredly closed his eyes.
Soon, he fell into a deep sleep.
...
After the last incident, Lin Fanpeng was relocated again.
To an even more secretive location.
This time, awaiting Lin Fanpeng is the final judgment.
This time, even if Lin Fanpeng grows wings, he won't escape.
And it's the same for everyone else.
Dongfang Yu originally wanted to rescue those descendants, but after the detainment issue, he dared not act rashly again.
His greatest reliance was these Spirit Talismans.
When someday, even these talismans can be dissolved by the red light, his concerns deepened.
Who knows if there are traps ahead awaiting him.
Besides, he has things he needs to accomplish.
He could only apologize to those three disciples.
As for the other mercenaries, they belong to Lin Fanpeng, Dongfang Yu never even considered them.
He resumed his former lifestyle after recovering.
Actually, there's really no difference.
In fact, both Dongfang Yu and Lin Fanpeng would go months without meeting.
As for Lin Fanpeng's request, Dongfang Yu hasn't figured out how to help the Lin Family.
Because the Lin Family is still cooperating with the investigation.
So Dongfang Yu could only observe for now.
Meanwhile, Shang Qing went to school.
It seems everything has returned to its original path.
And all this happened just over three weeks since Lin Fanpeng was captured.
However, it's already March now.
March in the North is still chilly in spring, especially with strong winds in spring, it feels very biting cold when the temperature is slightly lower.
It even feels colder than during the harsh winter days.
Gu Qiaoqiao continues learning, already mastering six Spirit Talismans, deeply ingrained in her mind.
Qin Yize has been busy, since he sent her back that night, they've only spoken on the phone three times.
Each call lasted just a few minutes.
Despite having a lot to say to each other.
At this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao is in the carving room, learning Spirit Talismans, but her carving skills cannot be neglected either.
No matter the time, having a skill is always better than not.
Having slept a little more during her nap, Gu Qiaoqiao still didn't feel sleepy.
Even though it was almost midnight.
The Gu Family was very quiet now.
Those who should rest had already gone to rest early.
Looking at the time, Gu Qiaoqiao realized how late it was, so she stretched and put down the items in her hands, glanced around the surroundings, switched off the lights, and walked towards her courtyard.
The sky was very dark, and the moon was hidden behind the clouds...
Without the cold wind disturbing the night, the surrounding temperature seemed slightly higher than during the day.
At the same time, it was extremely quiet.
Gu Qiaoqiao walked along the path but paused right before entering the Moon Gate.
She suddenly turned her head towards the direction she just came from.
