Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 792 - 285: The Happiness of Two People

The words of Gu Feng startled both Yun Sheng and Qi.

"Gu Feng, what are you saying? You’re taking Lingling away?" Yun Sheng knew that Gu Feng was in deep pain at the moment, but even so, she did not approve of Gu Feng leaving with Lingling on his own.

"Gu Feng, she needs better treatment," Qi also understood that Gu Feng must have gone through intense inner turmoil to accept the fact that Lingling had become what she was now.

"Even if she recovers, what then? Her very nature might lead her back to the Eastern Capital. Besides, the elders might not agree to take Lingling in," Gu Feng wiped the corner of his eye, holding back the tears in his eyes.

Yun Sheng and Qi were lost for words.

In fact, what Gu Feng had mentioned was not something they hadn’t thought of before.

The power of the Mainland Magic Elite Camp is formidable, but not strong enough to contend with Hou Qin.

Donghuang Lingling is the princess of the Eastern Capital, and she currently has a marriage arrangement with Dugu Xiu.

This is a fact recognized by the entire continent. Secretly harboring Lingling would equivocate to being enemies with both Eastern Capital and Hou Qin.

Furthermore, even if Lingling gets cured, she can no longer practice magic. Her mother and brother are still in Dugu Xiu’s hands; she would surely try everything to rescue her family.

In doing so, Lingling’s ultimate fate would still be marrying Dugu Xiu, suffering through her entire life.

"But, Gu Feng, have you thought about it? If you leave, it’s as if you’ve given up everything," Qi sighed.

He had known Gu Feng and Yun Sheng for years.

Gu Feng was the one with the poorest family background and the weakest strength among the three of them.

He was also the hardest working among them.

Before meeting Donghuang Lingling, Gu Feng’s life goal was simple.

He just hoped to one day become a famous Light Mage on the continent and lift his family out of poverty.

After he joined the Mainland Magic Elite Camp, he gradually started realizing this dream, on the verge of becoming the most outstanding Light Mage in the camp next to the Sunrise Tutor, yet at that moment, he chose to give up.

Qi felt that Gu Feng’s decision was a shame.

Yun Sheng felt the same, but both Lingling and Gu Feng were her closest friends. She understood that Gu Feng’s decision was the best help he could offer Lingling.

Gu Feng deeply loved Lingling; he would give everything he had to cherish her.

Even though Lingling was currently delirious, it was because of this that she could forget her identity as the Princess of the Eastern Capital.

Over the years, this noble identity had become a shackle for Donghuang Lingling.

She respected their decision, as long as Lingling and Gu Feng could be happy.

"I am a selfish man, and I don’t have much ambition. I just want to protect Lingling, to let her live happily, even if such days are brief, I have no regrets,"

After making the decision, Gu Feng left with Lingling, Yun Sheng, and Qi.

He had not yet decided where exactly he and Lingling would go, perhaps to his hometown, or perhaps to a beautiful, tranquil village free of strife.

"You two, don’t see us off any further. Once I find a place to settle, I will definitely stay in touch," Gu Feng said, reluctant to part with his two good friends.

Fearing that the farewell scene might become too emotional, Gu Feng forced a smile.

"Yun Sheng, the luckiest thing in my life, Gu Feng, is having met you. You have helped me so much, a simple thank you is not enough. I can only pray that in the next task for the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts, you will defeat all your competitors," Gu Feng grinned, laughing heartily.

A warmth surged in Yun Sheng’s eyes as she faintly remembered the stuttering Gu Feng from those years ago.

The two had known each other for years, yet looking back, it felt like just a moment.

"Qi, you are my good brother. You have to keep up the hard work," Gu Feng said, first glancing at Yun Sheng, then giving Qi a meaningful wink.

Qi’s ears turned slightly red; his fondness for Yun Sheng had always been a secret between him and Gu Feng.

No matter how long the farewell, it always reaches an end.

Gu Feng, accompanied by Lingling, said goodbye to Yun Sheng and the others, and embarked on the path he had chosen to pursue.

Yun Sheng and Qi watched the two leave until Gu Feng’s figure was out of sight, and then they both sighed and looked away.

"Who would have thought that among the three of us, Gu Feng is the bravest," Yun Sheng mused to himself, doubting whether he could have done the same if faced with such circumstances.

"I really envy him," Qi said thoughtfully, glancing at Yun Sheng beside him.

"Let’s head back to the Mainland Magic Elite Camp first. It seems we have really stirred up a hornet’s nest this time," Yun Sheng said with a wry smile.

With Dugu Xiu’s intelligence, he would definitely realize that the assassin incident was related to the Hunter Soldier Union.

In time, by following the leads, they would surely find their way to the Mainland Magic Elite Camp.

If they don’t act quickly, Dugu Xiu’s men might already be at the Mainland Magic Elite Camp by now. Then, it would be difficult to clarify what is right and what is wrong.

Yun Sheng’s guess was not wrong.

After failing to find anyone in the Imperial Palace, Dugu Xiu immediately investigated the security arrangements at East Bright Temple, and from the Right Minister, traced the lead to the Hunter Soldier Union, and eventually to Yun Sheng and Qi both being from the Mainland Magic Elite Camp.

Unexpectedly, during those years when Yun Sheng disappeared without a trace, he had actually gone to the Magic Elite Camp.

Remembering their brief encounter that night, Dugu Xiu felt both frustrated and tantalized.

Damn Yun Sheng.

This woman is naturally his nemesis.

Every time, she has to spoil his plans.

Yet the more she does so, the more he finds her irresistible.

After several years, what has Yun Sheng become?

Remembering her captivating black eyes under the night sky, Dugu Xiu felt an unstoppable restlessness.

Dugu Xiu was lost in his thoughts, completely forgetting that he was currently in Lady Chi Bi’s room.

"Crown Prince, this medicine is so bitter," said Lady Chi Bi, who had been severely injured by Yun Sheng’s Five Elements Magic Soul. After treatment by the Imperial Physician, she had already recovered significantly.

Right now, she lay on the bed in a frail and delicate manner, coquettishly asking Dugu Xiu to feed her the medicine.

Lady Chi Bi, noticing that Dugu Xiu, holding the medicine bowl, did not respond for a while and looked indecisive, could only prop herself up, leaning against Dugu Xiu, and softly asked him.

However, Dugu Xiu suddenly stood up and threw the medicine to a nearby palace maid, "If you don’t drink it, pour it away."

His tone was clearly somewhat angry.

He hadn’t settled accounts with Lady Chi Bi yet; he had already learned from the Left Minister that she had long known how to find Yun Sheng and the others, but for some reason, she continually concealed this information.

Otherwise, Yun Sheng would never have escaped right under his eyes.

Just thinking about this made Dugu Xiu wish he could strangle Lady Chi Bi.
