Chapter 485 Cause and Effect Reincarnation 5
Gu Yao lifted his foot and walked towards Fusang City.
Everywhere you looked was desolate, and everyone's face was covered in dust and their clothes were tattered.
The sallow-faced and emaciated children huddled together.
Corpses can still be seen in the city from time to time.
Starving people were everywhere, and corpses littered the fields.
The entire city looked as if it had been swept away by something.
Overnight, the people of this small southern town lost their homes.
Gu Yao frowned, feeling that this place looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
It wasn't the time when he met Shen Juan.
When was that?
Gu Yao thought for a moment, but couldn't remember.
A person dressed neatly would stand out conspicuously in the modern city of Fusang.
Gu Yao walked slowly on the muddy road. Even though he didn't look to the side, many covetous eyes still fell on him.
The appearance of a wealthy young man among a group of people who are starving and freezing is bound to arouse envy. Even though Gu Yao has been very low-key, he still attracts covetous glances.
Several people were already whispering among themselves, their dry eyes gleaming with a fierce light as they looked at this walking hot commodity.
Gu Yao had no interest in paying attention to these ill-intentioned people.
The more important thing now is to find the fox as soon as possible.
So much time had passed that he had forgotten where he had met Shen Juan.
He pursed his lips and could only follow his vague memory to walk towards the nearby river. He vaguely remembered digging the fox out of a mud pit.
Seeing that the person was about to leave, the few restless people behind him exchanged glances, got up and left, quickly following after him.
Taking a shortcut, when they were blocked in the alley, Gu Yao raised an eyebrow at the four people in front of him, looking quite intrigued.
It seemed she never expected that she would be targeted like this.
A look of amazement flashed in the eyes of the scarred man who was leading the group.
This young master is indeed very handsome, with delicate skin, even more beautiful than a woman.
Those who were just eyeing money now find their thoughts wandering to other things upon seeing such a stunning person.
Her eyes scanned the seemingly frail young master before her, as if assessing Gu Yao's worth.
He stroked his chin, a greasy smile spreading across his lips. "Which family's young master is this? Does he even know what kind of place Fusang City is now, yet he dares to come here alone?"
Gu Yao remained indifferent, feeling extremely frustrated by the lack of any news about the fox.
These people are trying to stop him; it's so annoying.
He wouldn't want to kill unless absolutely necessary.
Even if these people are stained with blood, there is a balance between good and evil that cannot be interfered with at will.
Those who have taken lives on their hands will be judged by the judge after death, and will be reborn as animals for countless lifetimes.
However, Gu Yao was not someone who could easily give in.
If these people really lack common sense, he won't be merciful.
The one who is kind-hearted and compassionate, with the world in his heart, is the deity of the Shangqing Realm, not Gu Yao.
He was just Gu Yao.
In Gu Yao's heart, Shen Juan will always be number one.
The scales in his heart always tipped towards Chenqian.
Gu Yao frowned, looked up at the four people in front of him, and said, "Get out of the way!"
Scarface was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter, stepping forward to reach out and touch the fair cheek. "Oh dear, young master is angry. This unruly look is really something. You've never tasted the flavor of a man before, let your brothers take you... Ah—ah!"
A scream pierced the sky, startling the sparrows by the roadside.
Gu Yao smiled gently and tilted her head.
"Are you still having fun now?"
Like the whispers of a demon.
In the next instant, the young man effortlessly crushed the scarred man's wrist bone.
A mocking smile appeared on his face as he tossed the pale-faced man aside, clapping his hands in disgust as if he had touched something dirty.
He slightly lifted his eyelids, his icy killing intent undisguised. "You, are you still going to make a move?"
The remaining three took a step back.
The scarred man, clutching his wrist, howled in pain. Looking at the arrogant young man before him, he pointed at Gu Yao with his other intact finger and shouted, "Kill him!"
The three who had just been trying to escape hesitated when they saw the calm and composed young man in front of them.
Scarface, pale-faced, staggered to his feet and pointed at the young man in front of him. "Give it a shot! What are you afraid of? Three of you attacking together, does he have three heads and six arms?"
"Look at his clothes, he's obviously a fat sheep. If you don't make a move, you'll just starve to death!"
Gu Yao found this person to be exceptionally noisy.
I want to kill him.
I'm so annoying.
His brows furrowed even deeper.
The three exchanged a glance, seemingly encouraged, gritted their teeth, and pounced on the young man.
Gu Yao raised the corner of his lips and tilted his head.
This guy's asking for it, there's no stopping him!
He was just about to stretch his muscles when a flamboyant red figure flashed past his eyes.
A cold light flashed by.
The three people in front of him stared in astonishment, then raised their hands to cover their necks and fell straight down.
Gu Yao raised an eyebrow and looked at the red fox that was perched on a large rock.
The fox licked its paws gracefully, its sharp claws stained with blood.
The red fox looked rather disheveled, its fur shattered in several patches, revealing red flesh from which blood gushed.
But now the way it licks its paws is exceptionally elegant.
Gu Yao chuckled softly.
Having appeared as a white fox for so long, he had almost forgotten that Shen Juan was actually a red fox.
Looking at the fox in front of him with great interest, Gu Yao couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.
It's really... rare to see a fox in such a disheveled state.
Even on the Heavenly Execution Platform, the boy maintained an unyielding spirit, which is quite endearing now.
Gu Yao crossed his arms and examined the fox in front of him, his eyes sparkling.
The red fox bristled the moment that gaze fell on its bald spot, its tail fur standing on end as if in protest.
He dodged and hid behind a tree by the roadside.
A pair of emerald eyes still peeked at the handsome young man through the gaps in the leaves.
He curled up in embarrassment, feeling extremely ashamed of his current appearance.
Gu Yao knew that the little fox was very proud, so he reached out his hand to the fox in the tree and said gently, "Fox, come down."
The red fox shrank back even further.
He covered his bald head with his fluffy tail.
Does she really care about maintaining a good image?
Gu Yao coughed lightly, suppressing the laughter in his throat.
If I actually laugh out loud, this little guy will probably get angry.
The red fox hesitated, tentatively extending its paw forward a step.
Gu Yao clapped his hands, signaling him to jump down, "I'll catch you, be good."
The red fox walked to the tree branch, about to jump down, when a murderous glint flashed in its emerald eyes.
Gu Yao's smile froze on his face.
Warm blood splattered on his face.
Scarface, who was trying to ambush from behind, was cleaved off by the fox's sharp claws, which acted like guillotines.
Before the body even fell, the head had already rolled off.
Scarface's ferocious expression froze on his face, and his body, still clutching the dagger, collapsed.
Gu Yao coldly wiped the blood from his face.
A little disgusting.
He disgustedly wiped his hands on the cloak, took off the white cloak, hastily wiped the red fox clean, and then threw it aside without hesitation.
The red fox's fur, which was covered in clumps, was now standing on end after being roughly wiped a couple of times, making it look like a frizzy egg.
The fox was completely bewildered by the sudden cleaning.
Gu Yao, however, found it extremely cute.
He reached out and picked up the fox, not minding its dirt, and petted it like a cat, giving it a big kiss on the face.
A pair of round, emerald-green eyes widened instantly as he stared blankly at Gu Yao, this "lecherous man." Gu Yao, however, pulled him into his arms and said, "Then come with me, little guy."
The fox tried to struggle to get out of Gu Yao's arms, but Gu Yao held the little guy tightly.
His voice was low and gentle, "Little one, be a good boy/girl."
The action of grabbing the red fox by the scruff of its neck was ruthless and carried a hint of threat.
The fox ears that had been perked up instantly wilted.
He quietly snuggled into the young man's arms, even calling out softly in a flattering tone.
Gu Yao smiled, stroked the soft fur on the fox's chin with his fingers, and nodded in satisfaction.
"Well, good."
He was extremely pleased with the little fox's understanding and tact.
Those who know the current affairs are handsome.
Little fox, you should be more obedient.
He hadn't forgotten the fox's attempt to carry it all by himself.
Ah.
He holds grudges very well.
