Capítulo 510: I Trust Her

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As long as Gu Xijiu signed the agreement to leave and promised never to come back, then he could have expelled her and not see her again. Even if The Lord took up the matter himself, he could not argue with the agreement.

To his surprise, before he could get Gu Xijiu to sign the agreement, The Lord had already emerged from the sky. At this moment, Gu Canmo did not know where The Lord was carrying Gu Xijiu. He had some questions but did not dare to ask.

The tremendous force of The Lord was unpredictable, which caused the fearlessness in Gu Canmo to fade and made his heart tremble and quake like leaves in the howling winds.

After leaving the Devil Gaol, Gu Xijiu finally regained her consciousness. The first thing that she did after regaining her consciousness was to question Gu Canmo, "The Mussel? What have you done to it?"

The tone of her voice was harsh. Gu Canmo would already generally not accept it if someone questioned him in such a rude manner. However, he would not dare flare up this time with The Lord's eyes sternly focused on him.

"It… It’s fine."

Gu Xijiu was relieved, but not convinced, "Where is it? I want to see it!"

Gu Canmo paused abruptly. Just when he was about to say something, The Lord interrupted him. "Bring the mussel to the Qingfeng Room."

Obviously, The Lord was going to handle the case himself. Gu Canmo did not know whether to feel happy or blue. He answered plainly and gestured to the disciple next to him. The disciple then went on to carry out his order.

The Qingfeng Room was the place to handle all sorts of important matters in the Tianju Hall. It was also a place to bring students to trial if they had conducted serious offenses.

When Gu Xijiu first came into the Qingfeng Room, all her spirit power and internal force in her body were blocked. Even her vital points were sealed. She was forced to kneel. She did not even have the strength to stand up and had to be dragged around like a dead body. She felt so insignificant and negligible; like fine dust.

She returned to the Qingfeng Room again, only this time, The Lord was carrying her. The Lord sat on the grandest seat in the hall while she stayed in the arms of The Lord. All the people fell to their knees. As she looked down at them, she could see rows and rows of people who remained low on the floor.

She closed her eyes faintly and thought to herself that this was the difference between the strong and the weak. Three days ago, she had to kneel and struggle to defend herself, but no one seemed to believe her. Everyone looked at her from a more superior and prominent position as if she was an ant, as they fabricated some fake offenses to humiliate her.

The Lord was carrying her in his arms now, sitting in this highest position. No one dared to say a word. They kneeled on the floor one after another, trembling with fear as if they were about to face a great disaster.

She took a glimpse at them with an icy look around the rows of people who were now kneeling. She would remember this scenario by heart.

Who would bother to listen to the defense of an ant? No matter which world she was in, the world always favored the ones with greater strength.

Stronger! She had to become stronger!

Sooner or later, she would become the stronger one and rule the world. When Gu Xijiu first came into this world, she only planned to live a good life. Waywardly and unrestrainedly, she wanted to travel the world and become an idler who was untrammeled and uncommitted. However, now she yearned to become the strongest person in this world, strong enough to be on equal footing with The Lord.

She was shocked by such a thought. Was it possible to be on equal footing with The Lord? She lifted her head inadvertently. She first saw the jaw that was slightly visible under the mask. Then, she saw the eyes that were shimmering brightly.

His face was too well hidden under the mask. Gu Xijiu could only see his blue eyes. She could not even see their shape, yet she could somehow feel that she was attracted to his eyes.

The people from down below were done with the formal courtesies and were waiting for The Lord to command them to rise, but The Lord did not even pay attention to them.

He took a look at Gu Xijiu and said calmly, "Are you able to stand now?"

Gu Xijiu suddenly realized that she was still in his arms!

Gu Xijiu was not someone who was timid like a little bird to rest on a man. She was very independent and very alert.

She was used to keeping a distance from the people around her, especially with men. Unless necessary, she rarely got close to any man. At most, she would only tap on the shoulder of a friend. She would never be this close to any man.

If this happened before, even if she were being held in someone’s arms, she would immediately restrain herself from his embrace once she regained her consciousness. However, she was not sure what happened this time, as she was unaware that she was in his embrace even after such an extended period.

Everything felt natural as if being embraced by someone who was closest to her. Was it because she was not thinking straight after being imprisoned and starved for days?

Perhaps she had acknowledged herself as the follower of The Lord. The Lord would be her master, so perhaps she would just comply. Now that The Lord had emerged from the sky to come and save her from the abyss of misery in her difficult times, she must have taken him unknowingly as her closest parent.

Perhaps deep down, she still hoped to receive some fatherly love.

Because she was chained and starved for too long, her body was slightly flaccid as she tried to stand. Eventually, she managed to stand firmly.

She was unsure whether she should honor The Lord with a respectful courtesy. The observant messenger, Jiangshan, immediately moved a big chair that was covered in silk and put it in a position lower than The Lord so that Gu Xijiu could sit.

Gu Xijiu looked at The Lord. His figure resembled a jade statue. She could feel the chill around his body at this time. The Lord nodded at her, so she sat down unreservedly.

She did not know what The Lord had given her to eat when she was unconscious, but she could feel a significant improvement. She was slowly regaining her strength.

Only then, The Lord finally looked at those people who were kneeling below. He did not let them rise. Instead, he threw his eye on Gu Canmo and said, "I will take up the matter personally. Don’t worry. I will not favor any side, and I will decide the case according to what is just. You can hear the case in my presence."

The ones who were kneeling, included the head of the Tianju Hall, the elder of the penalty hall, all major and minor officials, personnel, as well as teachers. Everyone felt uncomfortable as they took a look at Gu Xijiu who was sitting high up and then took a look at themselves kneeling on the ground.

The wanted to ask The Lord, "Is it appropriate that a criminal should sit high and above while the judges of the place were all kneeling down below?" However, they would not dare to mention a word, as they had imprisoned the follower of The Lord in the first place.

Gu Canmo immediately straightened himself, as he felt that he was indeed on the right side. Although The Lord did not usually get involved in the issues of the Tianju Hall, he would still be fair without favoring any party when he encountered great matters.

Only because of that did Gu Canmo dare to imprison Gu Xijiu. Even if a royalty violated the law, he must be punished equally like an ordinary man. Furthermore, Gu Xijiu was no royalty; she was merely a follower of The Lord.

He coughed a little, adjusted his words, and started to describe everything in a thoroughly well put manner. His logical thinking was strong, and he had a significant amount of evidence in his hands as well.
