After the two immortal beings, a man and a woman, landed, they waved their hands in the air a few times. Immediately, the minions of the demon king turned into black smoke and vanished.
I stared intently and recognized them as Long Lin and Hu Qingluan.
"Aren't you Young Master Long? What wind has blown you here?" Hu Qingluan gave a charming smile. Her allure was truly captivating.
"I was dragged here by that kid. What are you doing here?"
It turned out that the celestial being He Bi had invited was actually Long Lin. Ji Xiang had been right. Long Lin was a celestial being from above.
"I'm here to rescue my husband."
With a graceful twirl of her enchanting figure, she looked at Gu Yuan trapped in the Celestial - Suppressing Formation. Her somewhat teasing eyes flickered, as if she felt a twinge of pain.
Hearing this, Long Lin let out a hearty laugh and said, "What a coincidence. I'm also here to rescue my little lady. Well, you rescue yours, and I'll rescue mine."
Seeing their attitudes, the demon king thought he couldn't defeat so many immortal beings.
With a swift movement, he teleported directly to my physical body, picked it up, and ran outside.
Long Lin quickly waved his jade - bone fan. The fan spun rapidly and flew straight towards the demon king.
The demon king was no pushover. He jumped onto the window and took out the Qiankun Bag from his waist.
Only the meows of various cats could be heard from inside the bag. In an instant, hundreds and thousands of cat spirits rushed out, all looking fierce as they scratched at Long Lin.
Long Lin moved his sleeve, extinguishing wave after wave of them.
Seeing that my physical body was about to be taken away, Hu Qingluan remained unmoved. With a charming smile on her lips, she seemed to be watching a show.
The demon king sneered at the window: "Two immortal beings can't even defeat Third Master. You're useless."
After saying that, he was about to jump out of the window when suddenly his face showed terror. A large amount of blood spurted from his neck.
His golden cat - eyes stared fixedly at Gu Yuan: "You... you..."
Then he fell forward and died.
Gu Yuan was standing right in front of the demon king at this moment, holding my body in his arms. He was exuding a menacing aura all over. The look of cruelty and disdain in his eyes made him look exactly like the Yama who had just climbed out of hell.
Everyone in the room was stunned. He had actually used his last bit of strength to break through the Celestial - Suppressing Formation and rescue my physical body.
"Gu Yuan." I called out to him worriedly.
Hearing his name, the menacing aura around him gradually dissipated. His eyes were hazy, and he had completely lost consciousness. His body fell heavily.
"Gu Yuan!" I shouted and rushed towards his body. I kept patting his face.
"Gu Yuan, wake up. Gu Yuan..." But he didn't show any reaction.
Long Lin and Hu Qingluan were standing opposite me. They also didn't expect Gu Yuan to be so fearless. For my physical body, he didn't even care about his own life and directly broke through the Celestial - Suppressing Formation.
Seeing me crying so sadly, Long Lin wanted to reach out and pull me up.
Only then did I realize that he was a celestial being from above. I quickly looked up at him with pleading eyes and said, "You're a celestial being from above, right? Can you save him? Please."
Long Lin took a deep breath and looked at Hu Qingluan: "It's your chance to shine."
Rarely, Hu Qingluan's face no longer showed her coquettish look. Instead, she became extremely serious. She took out a jade - clean bottle, opened the mouth of the bottle, and sucked Gu Yuan into it.
Seeing Gu Yuan gradually disappear beside me, and I couldn't even catch him, I panicked completely.
"What are you doing?"
She ignored me. Her charming figure turned into a red light and flew out of the window.
I didn't care about anything. I quickly got up from the ground and also jumped out of the window.
But as soon as I stepped out of the window, the strong sun shone on me. My body was like steam, emitting a large amount of white smoke.
Seeing this, Long Lin grabbed me and pulled me back.
"Are you crazy? Don't you know you're not in your physical body now?"
I didn't care at all. I just wanted to find Gu Yuan: "Where did she take Gu Yuan? I'm going to find her."
Long Lin's face had never looked so ugly. He ran his finger across my forehead and said, "Get back into your physical body."
My soul flew back into my physical body with a whoosh. Before my soul could settle down, I quickly got up and rushed out.
But I didn't know where Hu Qingluan had gone. Where could I find her? I stood in the middle of the road, looking around. I almost got hit by a car.
Long Lin grabbed my hand and forcibly pulled me to the side of the road.
"What are you doing? Where did you let Hu Qingluan take Gu Yuan?" I struggled desperately to break free from his hand and shouted loudly.
"What does it matter to you where she took him? They've had a marriage contract for a long time."
"What marriage contract? I'm Gu Yuan's wife. I am. Don't you understand..." I was almost furious with him. What on earth was he trying to do?
"If you have a marriage contract, show me the proof." After saying that, he grabbed my body and forcibly pulled down the clothes on my shoulder.
"Ah, what are you doing? Let go of me..." I waved my hand forcefully and raised my hand to slap his face, but he firmly caught it with one hand.
"If you slap this palm down, you'll never see him in this lifetime."
I hesitated for two seconds. My hand gradually formed into a fist. I really didn't dare to slap.
"There's no soul - mark on your shoulder at all. If you two had really gotten married, how could Gu Yuan not have branded the soul - mark on you so that you could belong to him for all lifetimes?"
After saying that, he threw my arm down. The force was so great that I almost fell.
"You're just deceiving yourself now."
I bit my lip desperately. My chest heaved up and down as I forcibly suppressed my emotions.
"I've told you that he's never loved you. Why don't you believe it?"
"So what?"
My voice was very low, which stunned Long Lin.
"Whether he loves me or not doesn't matter. It's enough that I love him."
"Long Lin, marriage is just a formality. I don't care. There are also divorces even after marriage. Even if we're not married, I'm very happy to be with him. We've done what a married couple should do. You don't need to worry about it."
"You..." He raised his finger at me. It was obvious that Long Lin was almost mad with anger.
"Little Sister Ma, Little Sister Ma."
"Sister, Sister..."
Ji Xiang and He Bi came to find me.
Gritting his back teeth, Long Lin said, "I'm telling you, I'll never let go. We'll have plenty of time in the future."
After saying that, he turned into a golden light and disappeared.
Looking at the direction where he disappeared, the energy I had just mustered finally dissipated.
I wiped the tears on my face and replied, "I'm here."
"Little Sister Ma, we must go back to school immediately to save your classmate."
"What about Gu Yuan?" I pouted. My heart ached so much.
"Third Master should be okay. Before we went to save people, Third Master had already made some kind of deal with Hu Qingluan. We just didn't expect Third Master to break through the Celestial - Suppressing Net. I think Hu Qingluan should save him." Ji Xiang comforted me.
"But Third Master had just fought with the celestial being from above before. His wounds hadn't healed yet. And with this time, it must be even worse. Can he really survive?"
Just thinking about this made my heart ache so much. If I hadn't appeared, he might not have been so miserable.
"What are you talking nonsense about? Third Master is a lucky person. He'll surely turn bad luck into good." Ji Xiang glared at He Bi, signaling him not to talk nonsense.
I bit my lip and decided to calm down first. Hu Qingluan was also an immortal being. And just now Ji Xiang said that there was a deal between them. Although I didn't know what the deal was, it must be something that Hu Qingluan couldn't handle alone.
So she still had to rely on Gu Yuan as her backer. She would surely do her best to save him.
Moreover, Gu Yuan's magic power was boundless. He would surely be okay. I could only console myself like this.
Right now, Yan Lin was still waiting for me to save her. I could only focus on one thing for the time being.
I took the bag containing Yan Lin's soul and rushed back to school with Ji Xiang.
Fortunately, Li Xue was quite reliable. She held the candle all the time and didn't dare to move around.
I squatted beside Yan Lin. Her face had returned to normal. Since the demon king was dead, the blood - contract had automatically been lifted. The tattoo on her neck had also disappeared. I just needed to send her soul back into her body.
I opened the bag containing the soul and let out the little animals inside.
"One, two, three... ten, eleven?"
"Ji Xiang, look. I clearly caught ten little animals. Why is there one more?"
"Bad luck. You've caused trouble. You must have brought out something you shouldn't have."
"Ah, what should I do?"
