However, I wasn't afraid at all. My life was given by him. Even if I were to die at his hands, it would be a worthy death.
Just as my body was about to hit the ground, a dragon's roar suddenly came from above. I watched as a giant dragon wrapped in a blizzard swooped down. After catching my falling body, it immediately coiled its body and soared straight into the sky.
I was sitting on the dragon's back. The strong wind and snow whipped against my body, forcing me to tightly close my eyes and hug its neck.
As the howling wind gradually subsided, I dared to open my eyes and look down.
Sitting on the dragon's back and looking down at the night view of Gangliao City from the air was simply wonderful. On this winter night with thousands of lights, colorful neon lights, and the constant flow of traffic, it was like looking at a sky full of twinkling stars.
"Ah, Guyuan, this is so beautiful! I feel like I'm looking down at the Milky Way from beyond the stars," I shouted.
Guyuan's huge body circled in the air, taking me on a tour of the entire city's night view.
"Do you like the starry sky?" Guyuan's voice was deep and resonant, as if it had come from ancient times. It was very manly.
"Yes, I want to watch the brightest star in the night sky with my husband," I shouted loudly while sitting on Guyuan's back.
Just as I was shouting, it was as if I had entered a time tunnel. The lights around me were constantly flashing. Guyuan took me up again, as if we were rushing into the nine heavens.
"Lanlan, close your eyes," Guyuan said.
As soon as he finished speaking, we turned into a silver light and disappeared into the night sky.
When Guyuan landed, he had transformed back into his human form. He easily picked me up and took two steps forward.
At this moment, I couldn't wait to open my eyes.
"Can I open my eyes now?" I asked.
Guyuan's gentle voice brushed past my ear. "Why are you so obedient today? You can open them."
I carefully opened my eyes. What greeted me was a vast expanse of starry sky. The stars were twinkling in the light purple Milky Way. The bright moon, half submerged in the Milky Way, seemed dull in comparison.
At this moment, Guyuan and I were standing on the water. As long as we took a small step, large water lilies would emerge from where the water rippled. The feeling of being surrounded by the starry sky was like a dream.
Seeing me smiling happily, Guyuan took my hand and took two steps forward. As he waved his arm gently, the bright stars in the sky streaked across the night sky with long tails.
A meteor shower fell from the sky. The starry sky was so beautiful, like blooming fireworks. I was almost moved to tears by this beautiful scenery.
Normally, Guyuan always had a cold face. I didn't expect that when he was being romantic, he was no less charming than any other affectionate man.
The largest meteor in the sky streaked across the night sky and fell into the pond. The water lilies under our feet slowly bloomed, and a fresh and elegant fragrance filled the air, just like the smell on Guyuan's body.
As the water lilies bloomed, countless fireflies with silver light flew out from their centers.
Guyuan casually caught one and placed it in my palm.
"Here, take this. As long as it's with you, no matter where I get lost, I can always find my way home," he said.
"Home?" I looked at the little bug in my palm, a bit confused.
"You are my home," Guyuan said.
I nodded vigorously, my lips trembling with emotion. Tears of joy welled up in my eyes.
The firefly hovered in my palm for a while and then slowly slipped into my palm and disappeared.
"It will appear when you need it," Guyuan said.
At this moment, I was completely touched by Guyuan. This made me happier than if he had given me a field of flowers.
I looked at the man in front of me affectionately, stood on my tiptoes, and proudly kissed his lips. I secretly swore in my heart that this was my man. From now on, he would be my haven, my everything.
The two of us watched the starry sky all night and the sunrise the next day. I was completely immersed in it and couldn't extricate myself.
It wasn't until He Bi called me and told us that we had a new client that I reluctantly crawled out of Guyuan's arms.
Guyuan pinched my cheek and said, "I'll bring you here often in the future. After we finish this job, how about we move to a new house?"
"Okay," I said. Men from the Gu family are really handsome.
When we got back to the hall, He Bi had just sent away the client. Seeing us coming back full of joy, he knew that we had made up.
He told us about the client's situation.
The client's name was Zhang Wenjia. She was an internet celebrity live-streamer. Because of her pure and beautiful appearance, she was very popular among netizens. Every night, hundreds of thousands of young men watched her live stream, and the tips she received were countless.
However, few people knew that half a year ago, she was a big fat girl who was 1.7 meters tall and weighed 240 pounds.
At that time, she had tried every method to lose weight, such as taking diet pills, dieting, and exercising. She had tried everything she could think of, but she just couldn't lose weight.
People looked at her with strange looks, and even finding a job was difficult. This made her very self - conscious and she even didn't want to leave home.
Later, she accidentally saw a small advertisement on the internet: "Special diet pills. Take them and see results immediately. Do you want them?"
At first, she didn't really believe it. But it was as if the computer could sense her needs. Every day, it would push this advertisement to her, and there were many successful cases below. This made her very tempted.
So she clicked on the advertisement and consulted the customer service. To her surprise, the customer service replied immediately and told her that she could try it first and buy it if she was satisfied.
This made her heart flutter. She immediately placed an order. Sure enough, this thing was really effective. She took one pill during the day, and at night, she instantly turned into a hot girl with a figure so good that the young men on the other side of the screen drooled.
Just from that one night's live stream, her number of fans grew to hundreds of thousands, and the tips she received exceeded tens of thousands.
Her vanity was instantly inflated. She immediately ordered several boxes of diet pills online.
Just as she was about to place the order, the customer service told her that the pills could be given to her for free, on the condition that she needed to take before - and - after photos to help them promote the product.
Of course, she readily agreed to such a good thing. At first, the pills worked well. One pill a day could last for a week.
However, as her body developed a resistance to the pills, she had to take more and more. Moreover, there were great side - effects on her body. Now, as long as she stopped taking the pills, her whole body would be like a pile of mud, and the thick fat would hang down on the ground. She looked like a Shar - Pei dog.
When she went back to the customer service and wanted to continue taking the pills, she was rejected. They said that she was no longer useful to them.
She was so devastated that she wanted to commit suicide, but she was saved by an old man. The old man knew a little about metaphysics. He said that she might have encountered someone borrowing her life span. That is, someone, in order to let a dying person continue to live, used evil magic to borrow someone else's life span.
This was an evil magic. Normally, borrowing a few years of life span was still understandable. But unexpectedly, they were so immoral that they directly borrowed all of her life span.
That was really intolerable.
So, having nowhere else to turn, she could only come to our hall for help. She said that if we could help her survive, she was willing to take out all her savings from live - streaming, which was at least one or two million.
He Bi had already taken action. He even divined a hexagram, but it didn't work. The immortal in his hall was too afraid to take on this case because the person who borrowed the life span was too evil. So he asked Guyuan if he could take it.
If Guyuan didn't want to take it, He Bi would just reject the client directly.
"How about we don't take this case?" If it was too dangerous, I didn't want Guyuan to take risks.
"Tell her we'll take it," Guyuan said without even thinking.
I was still a bit worried and told him to think it over before making a decision. There was no need to rush.
But Guyuan told me that the white immortal who borrowed the life span didn't have enough cultivation. Zhang Wenjia had an extremely yin body. The person who borrowed her life span simply couldn't bear her life span. Her life span had already turned into yin life span. If they didn't deal with it quickly, the person who borrowed the life span would not only die but also turn into a Yin Corpse King.
Just thinking of the term "Yin Corpse King" made my hair stand on end.
As a matter of urgency, He Bi and I carried our magical tools and took a taxi to the address calculated by Guyuan.
We hurriedly got out of the taxi. Just as we took a few steps, a cold gust of wind blew by. In the white mist in front of us, pieces of ghost money were floating down. A cemetery suddenly appeared in front of us, blocking our way.
