Volume 1: Questioning the Past Chapter 43: Eastern Rain

Gu Xiaoxing's scalp tingled and he had no time to hesitate. He rushed out of the house with Du Siyu in his arms. The next moment, with a loud bang, the house behind him collapsed and exploded .
Gu Xiaoxing looked back with lingering fear. Du Siyu also came to her senses by then and finally had the strength to stand on her own. They looked towards the smoke together.
The smoke and dust dissipated, revealing a golden alchemy furnace several meters in size.
It is the Sanyang Spirit Refining Furnace!
But now this furnace is no longer the same as before, there are huge differences.
The stove jumped forward like a "living thing", its lid bounced up and down, and gas was emitted from time to time. The furious voice of the fifth elder came from the stove.
"You little bastard, I told you to keep an eye on Ling'er, but what did you do?"
"Fifth...Fifth Elder?"
Gu Xiaoxing reacted and realized that the Sanyang Spirit Refining Furnace was the Fifth Elder's real body. Seeing the momentum of the elder as if he was going to refine someone, he immediately felt guilty.
"Fifth Elder, calm down, calm down...!"
"You must have misunderstood something. How could I have any bad intentions towards Ling'er?"
"In Dilingyuan, I have always been protecting her. I have followed your instructions and risked my life not to let Ling'er bleed even a drop of blood!"
"hehe……"
A sinister laugh came from the furnace. "Then tell me, what does 'how good-looking a person is, how much food he can eat' mean?"
"What does 'body as big as a melon, beauty as a flower' mean?"
Du Siyu originally wanted to plead for Gu Xiaoxing, but when she heard this, she snorted coldly and turned away.
Gu Xiaoxing subconsciously took step back, smiled awkwardly, and said, "It's just a casual remark, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously!"
"Can't take it seriously?"
The fifth elder was actually amused, but when he thought about how the little girl was now obsessed with getting fat, he became furious.
"Then I'm just practicing, don't take it seriously!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the alchemy furnace crashed straight over.
Gu Xiaoxing was prepared and ran away.
However, in front of a quasi-spiritual treasure, his speed was not enough. Just as he raised his foot, he felt a force of gravity falling down, and he was heavily pressed to the ground by the alchemy furnace.
Gu Xiaoxing was lying on the ground, feeling that what was pressing down on him was not the alchemy furnace, but a mountain.
He struggled desperately, but to no avail. Finally, he looked at Du Siyu for help and said, "Siyu, save me!"
"Hmph! You deserve it!" Du Siyu turned her head away and pretended not to see it.
The next moment, the Sanyang Spirit Refining Furnace jumped high and fell heavily, and what sounded were roars, screams, and angry shouts.
boom!
"ah……!"
“You’ll be in good shape…!”
boom!
"ah……!"
"You'll be as big as a melon...!"
boom!
"ah……!"
"You'll be cheated out of the Thunderbolt Pill..."
In the small firewood courtyard, the alchemy furnace kept rising and falling.
Gu Xiaoxing's screams almost echoed throughout the entire Shiling Peak, and some disciples watched curiously.
However, when they saw the huge golden furnace, they turned around and ran away as if they had encountered a ghost.
Are you kidding? In the Soul Devouring Sect, who doesn't know the Fifth Elder's Sanyang Soul Refining Furnace? Who wouldn't be a little scared after hearing about the Sanyang Soul Refining Furnace?
Now that word of the outer sect competition has spread, no one dares to get involved in this bad luck!
After all, in the past, if the Fifth Elder got angry, he would have to go through a lot of trouble to capture people and put them into the Sanyang Spirit Refining Furnace to refine them.
And now the fifth elder is the furnace, it’s really too easy, he will refine you without any negotiation!
Da Ri gradually straightened up. Du Siyu, who was standing beside him, had found a place to sit down at some point. At this moment, she was looking at the miserable Gu Xiaoxing with her cheeks drooping.
I don’t know if it was because she felt relieved or because of something else, but a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Du Siyu, you're still laughing...ah! Help...!"
Gu Xiaoxing was almost crying. The alchemy furnace kept hitting him. Even with his strong Sanyang Alchemy Body, he felt as if all the bones in his body were broken.
Du Siyu gloated over his misfortune and gave him a fierce look, thinking, "You'll never bully me!"
"Boy, no one can save you today!" said the fifth elder of Danlu viciously.
"ah……!"
But suddenly, the Fifth Elder's voice was different. It did not appear in Gu Xiaoxing's ears, but lingered in his mind.
"Boy, don't move, and don't make any noise!"
Gu Xiaoxing was startled and stopped screaming immediately, because he heard the solemnity and...fear in the Fifth Elder's words!
The next moment, the Sanyang Spirit Refining Furnace pressed on him, also motionless.
In just a moment, the entire Shiling Peak fell into an eerie silence. There was no human voice, no insect chirping, and even the wind was silent.
Suddenly, Gu Xiaoxing felt a great fear in his heart, which was indescribable and difficult to explain. He knew that he could move.
But... I dare not!
At this moment, the entire Shiling Peak, the entire sect, and even the entire small wasteland fell into silence.
The big shot...is coming!
The sun was in the center and snow was falling for no apparent reason. A snowflake landed on the back of Gu Xiaoxing's hand, chilling him to the bone. However, under this great terror, he did not even dare to tremble.
"Dongfang Yu, it's time to go."
A faint fairy sound descended from the sky. Gu Xiaoxing knew that there was someone above his head. From the voice, he knew it was a man. He really wanted to look up.
But he didn't dare !
I could only guess in my heart who the person was. Who was "Dongfang Yu"?
Under this sky, the only one who can still... or dares to move, is Du Siyu!
Or maybe, she should be called Dongfang Yu!
Dongfang Yu stared blankly at the sky, letting the snowflakes fall on her hair and cheeks. She pursed her lips, her face slightly pale. Then she looked down at Gu Xiaoxing and walked over.
When the man in the sky saw this scene, his brows slightly frowned.
However, with just this frown, Gu Xiaoxing inexplicably felt as if his heart was suddenly pinched by a big hand. Just when he was unable to suppress it, a slender hand supported his face, and he suddenly felt the pressure relieved.
"Xiaoxing, I'm leaving..."
Gu Xiaoxing heard Du Siyu's voice.
"Actually, my name is not Du Siyu, my name is Dongfang Yu..."
Gu Xiaoxing heard a hint of sadness in Du Siyu's deep voice. He wanted to speak very much, but he didn't dare...
"For some reason, I was sent to the small wasteland. Now, I should go back..."
Gu Xiaoxing wanted to ask the reason, wanted to ask why, wanted to ask where she was going back to.
But, I dare not...!
At this moment, he finally realized what it meant to have a god above your head.
At this moment, there is undoubtedly a "god" above his head that makes him dare not raise his head.
"small star……"
Dongfang Yu's hands were shaking slightly. She thought she would have a lot to say at this moment. She thought she would be reluctant at most but not sad.
But for some reason, she opened her mouth before she could say what she wanted to say, and tears started to flow before she could speak.
The crystal teardrops slid down and dripped onto Gu Xiaoxing's hand, just like the snowflake before, but much more biting and cold than that snowflake.
At this moment, he didn't know where the courage came from, but he suddenly raised his head.
Look directly at...God!
