Lying in bed, ten minutes passed, and Ji Nanhong still couldn't fall asleep.
Getting up from the bed, she walked to the desk, took out the map of the Red Blood Corps, and began to study it again.
Currently, except for breaking through from the Thousand Turtle Valley side, there really was no better way out. She studied for a long ti but couldn't find a better route.
At so unknown ti, Ji Nanhong fell asleep lying on the desk.
"Who!" Ji Nanhong suddenly awoke, instantly stood up, armor enveloped her whole body, a sword appeared in her hand, pointing towards the direction of the door, her eyes fixed on it.
Though the door hadn't been pushed open, Ji Nanhong still heard faint footsteps.
She had ordered that no one should be this close to her bedroom at this hour, so this person absolutely couldn't be one of her guards.
"It's ." A voice sounded outside the door.
Ji Nanhong's body trembled slightly when she heard it; this voice was too familiar, she had heard it countless tis in dreams.
But when she really heard this voice, all she felt in her heart was vigilance and alertness.
The dead cannot co back to life, and the owner of this voice could not possibly be the person she longed for.
Therefore, there was only one possibility left, soone wanted to use that person's voice, which was absolutely unforgivable.
Ji Nanhong knew that soone who could bypass the heavy guards of the Red Blood Corps and co outside her bedroom was definitely not an ordinary person.
With a wave of her hand, the bedroom door swung open directly, Ji Nanhong wanted to see who was using that person's voice.
But after the door opened, Ji Nanhong was stunned. The person standing outside had a face she longed for day and night.
However, Ji Nanhong knew this person was definitely not the one she longed to et in her dreams.
"Do you dare to intrude into the Red Blood Corps? Do you know the consequences?" Ji Nanhong said coldly, gripping the sword hilt, staring at him.
"Nanhong, don't you recognize ?" Chen Guan said with a mixed feeling of laughter and tears. He thought Ji Nanhong might be happy to see him, or extrely angry, but he hadn't expected this situation.
"Do you think relying on such disguise could make
look at you differently? You're wrong, even if you have his face, you don't have his soul, just a dirty soul under a skin." Ji Nanhong coldly stared at Chen Guan and said, "Now, honestly tell whose orders you're following and I might spare your life."
Chen Guan suddenly felt a bit dazed, as he couldn't think of a way to prove that he was himself.
"Nanhong, it's really . I didn't die; I faked my death because the Inspectorate was always targeting . If I didn't die, they would always target you, and the Chief Judge wouldn't be at ease, making it difficult for you to grow." Chen Guan could only patiently explain.
"Keep making up stories." Ji Nanhong coldly retorted, feeling puzzled, why hadn't her Hidden Guards reacted to this commotion?
Her Hidden Guards were top-notch Sixth Awakening Powerhouses, they couldn't not notice the situation here.
"Could it be, soone has bribed people around ?" Ji Nanhong's face didn't look good. If that were true, her situation would be very perilous.
She originally thought she had managed the Red Blood Army into one solid block; now it seed there were dirty demons lurking in the shadows, even extending their reach to her side.
"Nanhong, it's really , you have a red mole on your left buttock." Chen Guan had no choice but to ntion Ji Nanhong's physical trait.
Ji Nanhong's heart chilled even more, murderous intent flickered in her eyes: "Has it already infiltrated to such an extent?"
Ji Nanhong's mind raced, thinking how to break the impasse.
Currently, she was only at the Fifth Awakening; though her strength was extraordinary and with so external power, she could compete with a Sixth Awakening Cultivator.
But her actual combat power wasn't enough to contend with the top powerhouses of the Sixth Awakening.
This person who could co here unnoticed was in no way a weakling on any account.
If she acted imdiately or issued a warning, it would definitely provoke a strong counterattack from the other side.
But if she couldn't call over the Corps' n, her situation was extrely dangerous.
Chen Guan, seeing Ji Nanhong's eyes, knew she absolutely didn't believe him.
"This damn vigilance." Chen Guan didn't know whether to praise or be frustrated with Ji Nanhong.
"Wait a mont…" Chen Guan wanted to say sothing, but suddenly, he saw Ji Nanhong move, summoning four pets at the sa ti, then held a large hamr in her hand, while Primordial Energy surged over her body.
Seeing this, Chen Guan knew he had to go all out, it was impossible to convince her.
Chen Guan's body flickered, and before the four pets could land, they were hit by Chen Guan's Disabling Fist, collapsing on the ground paralyzed.
Ji Nanhong hadn't had ti to react, her words remained unspoken, she too was hit by the Disabling Fist, her body limp, held in Chen Guan's embrace.
Yet before, Ji Nanhong had already thrown the hamr towards her back.
If the hamr struck the wall, the noise would be enough to alert nearby Commanders.
But at such close distance, Chen Guan, holding the paralyzed Ji Nanhong, managed to chase after the hamr, grabbing its handle just a fist's distance away from the wall.
Just as Chen Guan breathed a sigh of relief, he saw Ji Nanhong about to bite her tongue, startled.
No ti to set the hamr down, Chen Guan tossed Ji Nanhong's body upwards, and then poked her, rendering her unable to bite her tongue and completely immobile.
Chen Guan witnessed Ji Nanhong's fierce determination firsthand; this was just too indomitable.
Gently setting down the hamr, Chen Guan caught the falling Ji Nanhong, leaned in, and whispered a few words to her.
Ji Nanhong's ears turned red at once, then her whole face flushed.
"Now do you believe ? I'm truly Chen Guan." Chen Guan undid the Disabling Fist on Ji Nanhong.
Slap!
Ji Nanhong slapped Chen Guan across the face, Chen Guan didn't dodge, for he indeed caused her grievances.
After the slap, Ji Nanhong directly collapsed into Chen Guan's embrace, leaning her face against his chest silently weeping, her fists pounding his chest without saying a word.
Chen Guan just held Ji Nanhong like this, sitting on the bed, letting her vent her grievances.
When Chen Guan felt no movent from Ji Nanhong, he found she had fallen asleep in his arms.
Looking at Ji Nanhong's face, Chen Guan was full of heartache, just how exhausted she must be to fall asleep in such a situation, she indeed had endured too much grievance during this ti.
