Villain: Capture The Loli Sword Spirit At The Beginning

Chapter 207

"You bastard!"

After who knows how long in this world, Tai Xuanqing shouted angrily.

This wasn't the first time she had been so angry.

In this world, she faced more frustration in a day than she had in her entire life.

Chu Mu glanced deeply at Tai Xuanqing, not saying a word.

"These people must all be under Gu Lingxiao's control, or they're simply Gu Lingxiao's spiritual projections! He actually used such despicable means to deal with us."

Without spiritual power to take care of herself, Tai Xuanqing's appearance had also deteriorated.

The flow of time here was different from the outside world.

After several months here, her hair had become dry and her skin rough.

On the other hand, Chu Mu seemed much more composed, seemingly unaffected by the outside world.

"Chu Mu, are you going hunting today too?"

"Yeah, we've almost finished what we hunted a few days ago, so we need to get more prey."

"That Gu Lingxiao is truly despicable! If it weren't for him causing us so much trouble, we wouldn't have fallen into such a miserable state today!"

Chu Mu opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.

But it seemed that he thought of something and shook his head, ultimately remaining silent.

"What's wrong, Chu Mu? It seems like you have something to say to me?"

"It's nothing."

"It's okay, go ahead. We can't do anything now anyway."

"Qing'er, are you sure you want me to say it?"

"Of course."

Chu Mu nodded, carefully considering his words:

"Actually, I think that although Gu Lingxiao may not have good intentions, if we can calm our minds and comprehend some things, perhaps we can gain something different."

"Something different?"

"Yeah, during this time, I feel that my state of mind has become much more peaceful..."

"I don't think so."

Tai Xuanqing shook her head directly.

Chu Mu was helpless.

During these few months, he had completely understood Tai Xuanqing's irritable and easily angered nature.

Perhaps it was because she hadn't encountered many setbacks in the past, so when Tai Xuanqing faced setbacks, she always appeared particularly angry.

At first, Chu Mu was just as angry as Tai Xuanqing.

But after realizing that anger was useless, he began to suppress his own anger.

"Alright, I'll go hunting first. Stay here and if anything happens, light this fuse."

Chu Mu said helplessly.

After all, he was the Heaven's Chosen Son who had climbed up from the lower class.

After discovering that he couldn't use spiritual power, he started using his brain and tools.

As the Heaven's Chosen Son, his mind was very agile, and he quickly made simple spears and bows and arrows out of wood.

There was a big mountain not far from the town, so he simply moved with Tai Xuanqing into the mountains, at least solving the problem of food.

"Chu Mu, do you dislike me?"

"Huh? No, why would I dislike you?" Chu Mu shook his head and smiled, "You're overthinking."

"But just now..."

Tai Xuanqing was sensitive, and she sensed the helplessness that Chu Mu had shown.

"Alright, I still have to go hunting. Let's not talk for now, okay?"

Chu Mu said tiredly.

"Why can't we talk? We haven't had a proper conversation for several days."

"We can't have a proper conversation, can we?"

"Why can't we have a proper conversation?"

Tai Xuanqing was puzzled.

Chu Mu sighed deeply and sat down beside Tai Xuanqing, tightly holding her hand.

"After we came here, we have been harassed by wild beasts every night. We have to take turns keeping watch, right?"

"If I don't rest well, I won't be able to hunt, and we will go hungry."

"If you don't rest well, wild beasts may come after you during the day, and I still won't be able to hunt. We will still go hungry."

"If we take turns keeping watch at night and separate during the day, how can we communicate?"

Tai Xuanqing listened to Chu Mu's words, and her other hand clenched into a fist involuntarily.

Indeed, what Chu Mu said made sense.

But she needed everyone to hold her in high regard.

The people of the previous Tai Xuan clan did that, and so did Chu Mu.

She hated this kind of life very much.

"But Chu Mu, according to Gu Lingxiao's rules, perhaps we can never leave this place in our lifetime."

"We will thirst, hunger, tire, and feel sleepy in this world. Everything is no different from ordinary people. Now, besides living according to Gu Lingxiao's rules, what else can we do?"

Chu Mu calmly said, leaving Tai Xuanqing speechless.

She looked at Chu Mu's departure with a hint of loneliness.

For some reason, she felt that Chu Mu had changed a bit from before.

"The Chu Mu I like should be a spirited young man. Why... has he become like those old men?"

Tai Xuanqing couldn't understand, and she didn't want to understand.

She always felt that her life had completely fallen apart since Gu Lingxiao came.

But soon her gaze became sharp again. She tried hard to sense the spiritual energy within her and around her, attempting to break through the situation through cultivation.

But unfortunately, she overestimated her own abilities.

...

Gu Lingxiao, who imprisoned the two of them, had no self-awareness as the instigator.

He skillfully handled the affairs of the Tai Xuan clan.

After Gu Wudi handed over a pile of mundane matters to him, he was forced to acquire this ability.

"Chief, the people you wanted to see have arrived."

"Hmm, let them come up, and then you can leave."

"Yes!"

Tai Xuanlang respectfully left, and four elders took his place.

"We have seen the Chief. We wonder why the Chief has summoned us today."

"I know that you support Tai Xuanqing. I hope you give up."

"What is the Chief saying? We don't understand."

Gu Lingxiao raised an eyebrow slightly.

Pretending to be ignorant with him?

But Gu Lingxiao didn't say much. He silently showed them Tai Xuanqing's performance after becoming an ordinary person.

After they finished watching everything, their expressions clearly turned unpleasant.

Tai Xuanqing's performance was indeed quite disappointing, not like a qualified successor.

"Furthermore, you support Tai Xuanqing, just to fight for the opportunity of divine vein baptism for your disciples. But if you persist in your stubbornness, do you think that during my time as the Chief, your disciples will still have the chance for divine vein baptism?"

"You are abusing your power!"

"When my mother returns, you can report this matter to her."

After Gu Lingxiao finished speaking, he waved his hand, indicating that they could leave.

The four elders looked at each other and communicated silently with their eyes.

Seeing this, Gu Lingxiao didn't want to waste any more words. He lightly drew a circle on the soles of their feet, and their bodies kept falling downward.

By the time they landed on the ground, they were no longer in front of Gu Lingxiao.

"What... should we do?"

"Gu Lingxiao is in a dominant position. I think Qing'er can understand."

"Since Qing'er was imprisoned, the younger generation has been restless. If we continue to flatter Gu Lingxiao, won't others start having different thoughts?"

"He wants the younger generation to fight for the position of the Chief... Qing'er has just shown some unwise behavior recently. Are we really not considering her anymore?"

The four of them discussed with worried expressions.
