Capítulo 954: Chapter 953: Very Foolish and Innocent
The location of Cloud Fort is almost twenty miles further than Wang Family Fort, situated in a place called Shengyun Town, so by the time they arrived in Shengyun Town, it was already dark.
They went directly to the inn where Tang Shi had made arrangements beforehand to meet up, and after a simple meal, they each tidied up their belongings.
“Miss.” Chi Liu cupped his hands in front of Wufu.
“Hmm, is there any new information to report?” Wufu looked at him.
Chi Liu said, “The reason Yun Feiyang was able to obtain Cloud Pearl from Cloud Fort is that he deceived Miss Yun, Yun Zhongge, to get it. Because of this, the lady even attempted suicide, but fortunately, she was discovered in time.”
“Oh, what scum!” Wufu raised an eyebrow and asked, “Does this scum look as handsome as Pan An?”
Chi Liu took out a small portrait and handed it over: “This is drawn according to the description given by people from Cloud Fort.”
Wufu raised an eyebrow and praised, “You sure are well-prepared.”
Chi Liu chuckled and continued, “Yun Feiyang is not handsome, but he’s eloquent, and he’s good at imitating others. It’s said that he and the lady grew up together as childhood friends. Sometimes when Yun Zhongge was unhappy, he would even mimic her to cheer her up. Once, on the outskirts of the Cloud Realm, Yun Zhongge was bitten by a venomous snake, and it was Yun Feiyang who sucked out the poison, accidentally ingesting a bit himself. Since then, Yun Zhongge has been deeply infatuated with him.”
“Such a naive young lady, she must have seen too little of the world. So, us women, without encountering a few scumbags, don’t know the dangers of the world.” Wufu shook her head.
Chi Liu remained silent, thinking that one doesn’t necessarily need to encounter scumbags to know the world’s dangers; traveling the Jianghu enough would do it too.
Wufu looked down at the small portrait. A pair of long eyebrows, a slightly square face, drooping eyes, a thin upper lip and thick lower lip. Indeed, such looks aren’t considered handsome, and this is a fickle person. She asked, “How is Miss Yun now?”
“Since Yun Feiyang’s betrayal, Yun Zhongge believes she was the reason Cloud Fort lost its treasure. After her failed suicide attempt, she was very quiet for a few days. I’ve heard that this time, when entering the Cloud Realm, Yun Zhongge also wants to go, saying she wants to personally capture the traitor.”
Wufu said, “I remember previous reports said Yun Zhongge doesn’t know any Kung Fu?”
“Yes. But she insists on going in.”
Wufu scoffed, “Having someone protect her all the way through? She must be out of her mind. Without any skills, she insists on being a burden—isn’t she the actual enemy of Cloud Fort? Deliberately dragging Cloud Fort’s people down to let Yun Feiyang get away?”
Chi Liu’s mouth twitched. Could you be less blunt? If Yun Zhongge were here, she would probably jump up in anger.
Seeing his expression, Wufu said, “Do you think I’m wrong? It doesn’t matter if a person lacks skills; the most important thing is to know one’s abilities, to have self-awareness. Being willful and reckless without any self-protection skills and insisting on going to such a place—isn’t that courting death? If she wants to court death, fine, but dragging others along with her to die?”
“Well, although her martial arts talent isn’t great, she does have some meager skills.”
“You also said, meager skills. Yet the Cloud Realm even proved too much for some elders. Does she think those meager skills will suffice to capture someone?” Wufu scoffed, “Her father allowing her to go makes him a fool as well.”
“It’s said that the father and daughter had quite a row about it.”
Wufu sighed, “It’s one thing to be stupid once, but being stupid twice, no wonder she got deceived.”
Because she’s so naive and trusting.
