682: Chapter 673: Kill One Each Ti We Find One 682: Chapter 673: Kill One Each Ti We Find One Gu Youyou: “…Those people are too bold, isn’t the official road from Beijing to Jinxiu City supposed to be the safest?
They dare to kill on the official road?”
Jin Zijin sneered, “There’s no such thing as a safe place in this world, even the heavily guarded Imperial Palace is not safe.”
Uh…
Seeing Jin Zijin like this, she was afraid she wouldn’t get much out of him.
Having spent a considerable amount of ti with him, Gu Youyou had also developed so experience.
If she couldn’t get an answer, she wasn’t going to press the issue, wasting her expressions.
She turned over, her fingers twining through his silky hair, and changed the subject.
“When I left this morning, my aunt ntioned that she was looking for a suitable match for .
What do you think about that?”
She could clearly feel the person opposite tense up, his vast eyes gradually deepening.
Then she heard him coldly spit out two words, “Reject it.”
Gu Youyou smiled nonchalantly, “Ah, I also want to reject it, but do you think I have a say in this matter?
I can only listen to my uncle and aunt.
Why don’t you speak to them?”
“ go?” Jin Zijin scoffed, “Fine, I’ll go!”
Ah…?
He isn’t really going, is he?
Startled, Gu Youyou hastily said, “Hey, hey, no need to go.
If you ss with my aunt’s list of candidates, preventing her from finding soone suitable for the next few years, that should settle it.”
Jin Zijin’s tense body relaxed, and he said with a faint smile, “If that’s the case…
Good, as you wish.”
The long night stretched out before them, and they had grown accustod to lying in bed and chatting.
When the conversation moved to the other five dicine people, Jin Zijin seed a bit off, as if he was hiding sothing from her.
She really couldn’t stand this habit of his.
“Now that you’ve found one more in Jinxiu City, there are only four left.
Have you got a lead?”
Jin Zijin said, “Finding dicine people isn’t easy.
Finding you was an accident.
Jin Ziyuan had a special identity; that was due to his many slip-ups in the past, and it took several years to find the one in Jinxiu City.
There might be so clues about the others, but avoiding Xuanzong’s people and finding them isn’t easy.”
“What do you plan to do once you’ve found them?”
Jin Zijin sighed, “I don’t know yet.”
“Don’t know?” Seeing him turn his head away, Gu Youyou grew even more uneasy.
“Why don’t you know?
Are you afraid I’ll overthink it?
Just tell .”
Gu Youyou wasn’t the type to pry, but when it ca to their dealings with the dicine people, she couldn’t help but be less calm, especially since she was one of them.
Gently pulling her close, Jin Zijin brushed back the hair at her temples and whispered, “Do you really want to know?”
“Of course.” Gu Youyou said earnestly.
Jin Zijin gave a bitter smile, “The safest thod is to kill each one we find, turning his dream of eternal life into an empty promise.”
“Kill…
Kill them?” Huh, indeed a very safe thod.
“So, did you…
kill the one in Jinxiu City?”
Jin Zijin shook his head, “No.”
“Oh…” Gu Youyou breathed a sigh of relief.
“Ajing only went this ti to personally confirm whether that was a dicine person nurtured by Xuanzong.
To protect the dicine people well, they often place them in the most inconspicuous locations, where no one would monitor them closely.
However, if a dicine person dies, it will certainly ‘startle the grass and alert the snake,’ making it harder for us to find the others later.
Besides, now that we have you, I’m afraid that if they’re cornered, they might beco desperate.”
“You’re afraid Yu Jizi might make a move on ?” Gu Youyou chuckled dryly.
“Yes!” Jin Zijin recalling the day’s events, said, “Tomorrow…
be careful when you go to your grandmother’s place.”
