Barrier of Light

Luo Yu and Zhong Fan were leaning against the banyan tree not far away. They couldn't help laughing when they saw the young master pushing the door open and looking stunned.

So many people from the Gu family are waiting here just to see this scene——

Everyone knows about this journey to the west.

The young master is here for the goddess.

"It's gone, it's all gone!"

Luo Yu greeted the night watchmen and members of the mission to leave, and soon the courtyard became quiet amidst cheers, leaving Gu Nanfeng and Meng Xizhou alone.

"You shouldn't have come."

Gu Nanfeng said helplessly: "The current situation is turbulent. As a goddess, you should not have too much contact with the Gu family in public."

The relationship between Guangming City and Nagano is very sensitive.

Meng Xizhou's every move will be magnified, but he doesn't care... He's just afraid that if the temple is still in turmoil, Meng Xizhou will get into trouble and be criticized if he acts like this.

"How I stood under the light... I understand everything."

Meng Xizhou smiled and said: "Without Gu's help to stabilize the situation in Red Lake, the situation last night is still unknown."

The Red Lake looked peaceful last night.

But... Gu's mission and the night watchman still played a big role.

Sometimes, you don't have to fight to show your strength.

Gu Shen's appearance last night ignited the anger of the two northeastern continents. If the Holy Inquisitor decides to suppress it forcefully, then the Gu mission and the Night Watch will have a legitimate opportunity to resist. Therefore, for the temple, Red Lake has not The best outcome would be to break out into a fight.

"What's more, this is the courtyard where the Gu family's mission is stationed, and it's a private residence."

Meng Xizhou stood up, came to Gu Nanfeng, and asked with a smile: "There are only you and me here, does it count as a public place?"

She stretched out her jade hand to straighten Gu Nanfeng's cloak.

"Thank you for your hard work last night."

Meng Xizhou's voice was a little distressed as he said, "Are you injured?"

There was a slight wound on Gu Nanfeng's cheek. The injury was so minor that it could almost be ignored.

"It's just some blood oozing out."

Gu Nanfeng said helplessly: "Su Ye is also banned after all. It's not that easy to stop him. You still have to take action..."

There was too much movement in Red Lake last night.

Su Ye realized something was wrong later and resorted to all possible means...

Facing this mad dog-like enemy, Gu Nanfeng could only use his sword.

The final outcome was that he beat Su Ye to the ground, while he suffered some minor injuries.

"I have already taken care of Su Ye's matter. The remaining feathers of the Holy Son's remnants have been trimmed. Now the disputes in the temple have almost subsided."

Meng Xizhou's fingertips exuded a glow: "Once Gao Yi died, several emerging clans in Guangming City also collapsed... The remaining troubles are not troubles."

She gently wiped Gu Nanfeng's cheek with her fingers, and the soft light passed by, causing the scars to fall off.

Gu Nanfeng squinted his eyes and enjoyed it. After a long time, he suddenly remembered something and said, "Where is Gu Shen?"

Regarding the identity of that evil spirit——

He had already guessed it.

On the way back to the mansion after dealing with Su Ye, he quickly learned some general information about what happened in Honghu last night through the mental network.

The [Barrier] that Xizhou was proud of died in the hands of Gu Shen in a one-on-one duel!

pity.

It was a great regret that he did not go to watch this battle in person.

"He left already."

Meng Xizhou's expression was a little strange. She recalled the ending last night and couldn't help but sigh: "Things... are like this."

…

…

"After seeing the God of Light, you just left like this?"

After a while, Gu Nanfeng sat under the banyan tree in the courtyard and spoke in confusion.

The fallen leaves are swirling in the wind, still lingering with a holy glow.

"Yes... he doesn't seem to be interested in visiting the [Forbidden Library]." Meng Xizhou said distressedly: "I originally wanted to persuade him, but his speed... is too fast."

Thinking back to the sword light rising into the sky last night.

Meng Xizhou couldn't help but hold his forehead.

She also wanted to say hello to the Holy Judges on the cloud ship and try to persuade them to stay, but she had not yet completed the "ruling work" of Guangming City at that time.

Thinking of this, the goddess sounded a little angry: "According to that speed, he may have reached the high seas by now. Are there any monsters and ghosts in Guangming City that can swallow him?"

These words are more helpless.

Even Jia Wei is no match for Gu Shen. If he really wants to leave, who can stop him?

"..."

Gu Nanfeng smiled and said, "I understand Xiao Gu's character. He should be in a hurry to return to Nagano for business."

After six years of separation.

Too many people are waiting for him.

Nagano, Dato, Central City... Countless big shots have been busy working on Gu Shen's affairs in the past few years. It wasn't until last night that everyone knew that he was still alive!

This good show was hidden from everyone.

Gu Nanfeng thought carefully and guessed what probably happened in the past six years...

When the Nagano fleet arrived at the Ice Sea Ruins, Gu Shen probably had just completed his promotion.

Jia Wei's stabbing six years ago was too fatal.

If it weren't for the comprehension of the [Fire of Life] field, Gu Shen would most likely have died. After equating "evil ghost" and "Gu Shen", Gu Nanfeng understood many unreasonable things in an instant .

After he led the fleet to complete the Yuantei Island negotiations, he heard about the case files of the Toze family.

This case involved a lot, but was handled in an extremely low-key manner.

Although the Gu family has a great business, after all, the Jiangnan area is the territory of Huazhi. As the young master of the Gu family, after hearing about the "Higashi Rebellion", he simply paid attention and learned that the case file had been solved and the follow-up processing would be carried out. There was no problem at all, so I just skipped it... But now that I think about it, this was clearly the work of "Gu Shen".

Except for Gu Shen, no one could convince a presiding judge like Shen Li to suddenly go south.

As for the prison's full cooperation.

Obviously, the man sitting on the throne in the cemetery also made some efforts.

"When Gu Shen returns to Nagano, he must be anxious to see Mr. Bai Shu, right?"

Gu Nanfeng thought of the past six years ago and couldn't help but sigh: "This kid's death... deceived everyone. I didn't expect Mr. Bai Shu to deceive even me."

When he learned the bad news, he immediately entered the inner mausoleum and asked for a meeting.

As the future master of the Gu family, Bai Shu summoned Gu Nanfeng of course...but he told Gu Nanfeng that nothing could be changed by the divine throne.

Gu Shen is dead.

It was the greatest despair to be informed of the death by God.

This means...there will be no further reversal of the matter.

Later, Mr. Gu wanted to go to the cemetery to ask Baizhu to take action. Gu Nanfeng couldn't bear to let the old man continue to suffer, so he fabricated perjury of the "Blood Tablet". This was actually what Mr. Baizhu meant... Gu Nanfeng learned from the cemetery After the news of his death was confirmed, Mr. Gu spread the news that "Gu Shen is dead" to the world.

But now, everyone is a "victim".

Everyone was deceived.

Baizhu deceived himself, while Gu deceived everyone in the world.

"Actually... I still have a lot of questions."

Gu Nanfeng rubbed his brows and said softly: "About Gu Shen, about the past six years... When I return to Nagano, I will definitely arrest this kid and torture him."

Of course he was extremely happy to learn that Gu Shen was still alive.

However, during this trip to Guangming City, he and Gu Shenlong only met once.

In that dark alley, separated by the evil ghost mask, we met but didn't know each other.

"Perhaps you will get answers to some questions soon."

Meng Xizhou's palm gently rested on the back of Gu Nanfeng's palm, her eyes were extremely clear and sincere: "Come with me to the Red Lake... I will ask Lord God to open the [Forbidden Library]. "

…

…

Today's Red Lake is very deserted, with sparkling waves on the lake's surface and fewer Holy Inquisitors coming and going.

Red Lake is not open to the public on weekdays.

Only high-level officials in the temple and dignitaries from some big families in Guangming City can enter.

Every extraordinary person who enters the Red Lake needs to submit an application in advance and must be approved by the temple elders before being allowed to enter.

There is great spiritual power here.

Even sitting quietly by the lake can condense your state of mind, become pure, and quickly reach "sedation".

In most cases, temple transcendents will conduct trials in the Heart-Cleaning Pool... The Heart-Cleaning Pool is equivalent to a simple version of the Red Lake. Sitting nearby can also have an auxiliary effect of spiritual concentration and practice.

Gu Nanfeng came to Red Lake with Meng Xizhou.

The mist in the distance obscured his vision...but he could feel the vast light, just on the other side of the Red Lake.

The Holy Judge and members of the Gu family mission were waiting by the lake.

Both groups of people are waiting.

This is a public place, but Meng Xizhou grabbed Gu Nanfeng's hand, her expression was very calm, and she had no intention of avoiding anything.

The two of them just stood on the red lake, with the gentle breeze blowing and the faint light spreading.

The golden boy.

Many years ago, those people on the border of Beizhou described these two young men and women in this way.

But now, the Holy Judges in the temple and the night watchmen of the Gu family, looking at the scene of the sparkling red lake, couldn't help but have similar words in their hearts...

All the words used to describe a perfect match in the world are no exaggeration when applied to these two people.

"Rumble..."

At the end of the other side of the mist of the Red Lake, a low muffled sound suddenly came.

This boundless lake that had been standing still all year round began to flow, and thousands of light fragments shone like fish scales.

The fog in the center of the lake gradually dissipated.

The thin layer of clouds covering the zenith was pierced by a blazing beam of light——

This beam of light was like a sword, instantly tearing the water in the middle of the lake.

Countless bright water droplets floated and solidified in the air. Where they were struck by the light beam, ripples on the water surface spread out like a tornado. The center of the red lake rotated and condensed, revealing the true appearance of the taboo.

The Holy Inquisitors and night watchmen who were watching by the lake held their breaths.

They knew that they might only see the miracle at this moment once in their lifetime.

The red lake opened up, revealing a library.

Destroyed by thousands of years of wind and frost, the library still remains intact, exuding an endless and holy charming glow. It is the "enchantment" imposed by the ancestor of light with divine power.

It is both protection and shackles.

According to the precepts of Guangming City, [Forbidden Library] only those who control the light are qualified to read it... However, because of his extraordinary talent, Meng Xizhou was too close to the light, so he accidentally entered the Red Lake. He entered the library without any hindrance and came into contact with the spiritual power of the library.

She can be regarded as the first "exception" in six hundred years.

But this time the God of Light opens the [Forbidden Library] and allows outsiders to enter, which is the second exception.

"Thank you, Lord God of Light."

Gu Nanfeng knew that this opportunity was rare and immediately spoke loudly.

The light on the other side of the Red Lake swayed gently with the wind and fell on him, which was regarded as praise and encouragement.

This is the reply from the God of Light.

it is more than words.

After the lake water poured away, Gu Nanfeng emerged with a long staircase of light water. After he and Meng Xizhou looked at each other, he saluted to the other side and said respectfully: "You're welcome, junior."
