His Rui

Chapter 632 The Furious Gu Li

Mi Luan told the old master leaving him completely surprised.

”Did you tell Gu Li?”

The old master asked Mi Luan who shook his head calmly. The old master immediately had a serious expression on his face and said

”You should have told him, Mi Luan. He needs to ready himself for your departure.”

Mi Luan looked confused by the old master’s words. The old master sighed seeing this.

He didn’t know how he should make Mi Luan understand. He could only ask him

”Do you need to leave? Can’t you stay?”

The old master couldn’t imagine what would become of his disciple if this little disciple of Master Wong left. His disciple finally had learned to smile and talk like normal person even though their life was not normal.

He thought that it would be nice if Mi Luan could stay.

However, Mi Luan shook his head ‘no’ calmly.

The old master sighed many times on their way back. When they stepped out of the dense forest, the old master said to Mi Luan seriously and quite strictly

”Tell Gu Li tonight about this.”

”Alright, Master.”

Mi Luan said. He seemed to guess that his words had disappointed the old master but he couldn’t say even if he wanted.

At night, after taking his meal, Gu Li took Mi Luan to the forest to get some fruits for the latter. It was after they had finished their dinner, Mi Luan told Gu Li.

”Senior brother, I am leaving tomorrow.”

It took Gu Li a few moments to respond to those words. During those few moments, the silence around them was a little strange but Mi Luan never understood what was so strange about it.

Even after so many days, he had been unable to understand his ‘Senior brother’s attachment to him. He never thought that Gu Li would face any difficulty in continuing his life after his departure. Perhaps because he thought that he could never be that important to anyone.   

  “What did you say?”

Gu Li who finally found his voice asked Mi Luan in a voice that expressed his complete confusion. The young shadow guard surely seemed to think that he heard something wrong. There still was a smile on his lips as he looked at Mi Luan.

Mi Luan repeated quite calmly, never understanding even a bit what kind of powerful impact his words had.

”Senior Brother, I am leaving tomorrow.”

Gu Li’s smile disappeared completely this time. 

”Where are you leaving and with whom?”

Though he already seemed to guess what will be the answer, Gu Li still asked him and sure enough, the little fella said

”With Shifu…back to from where I came.”

Gu Li’s face was blank and his eyes were emotionless. He had never had this strong urge to spank someone that he had at this moment. How easily he said these words!

”You are not leaving.”

He said coldly a voice that he would usually use in front of the shadow guards he used to train…a voice that commanded no argument to his order.

However, Mi Luan was not one of his shadow guards. He was still the child in whose eyes he had never seen fear. Sure enough, he opened his mouth to say something but even before he could let out a single sound, Gu Li picked him up from the ground, and using qingong he flew away from there.

When they were back to the tents, he silently strode towards his tent and then put Mi Luan on the bed.

”Sleep. You need to go to training with Master tomorrow.”

After saying these words, he blew out the lamp and then walked to his side of the bed to sleep. He pretended as if he never heard Mi Luan’s words about leaving him.

However, Mi Luan was also quite persistent. The little fella didn’t lay down on the bed. Instead, he sat at the same spot where Gu Li had put him and said

”Senior Brother, I need to leave. I can’t st…”

The next moment, Mi Luan’s arm was gripped firmly but not tightly and Gu Li’s cold and strict voice fell in his ear.

”Do you want me to beat you …spank you? If not, then sleep quietly. You are not going anywhere. Is it about that shifu of yours? I will tell him that he can stay here for the rest of his life. Youxio can always use an old physician.”

Gu Li finished and then forcefully made Mi Luan lie down on the bed.

Only now Mi Luan did understand why the old master was asking him to talk to Gu Li about his departure. However, what he didn’t understand was Gu Li’s anger.

Why was he so angry?

Mi Luan sat up again and said again

”Senior brother, It’s not about shifu. I was given only forty five days to stay out. The period will complete tomorrow and I need to leave. I can’t…”

Bang!

Gu Li flipped the small wooden table that was placed inside the tent-making Mi Luan stop amidst his words. After that, he left the tent without saying anything to him.

Master Wong who was on his way to Gu Li’s tent to check whether his little disciple had returned or not was shocked and confused when he saw Gu Li with a cold face stepping out of his tent.

He immediately walked towards the tent to see if his little disciple was alright or not.

However, just when he relaxed the tent, he saw Mi Luan stepping out of the tent perhaps to follow Gu Li.

Master Wong heaved a sigh of relief but was confused when he heard his little disciple asking him. 

”Shifu, did you see Senior Brother leaving?

”I did. But why did you look so anxious?” 

And when Mi Luan told his shifu everything, Master Wong’s face went serious. He knew very well that if Gu Li didn’t want Mi Luan to leave, he won’t be able to take him away.

Master Wong smiled to assure his little disciple and said   

”You go and sleep. I will go and talk to him.”

Mi Luan didn’t seem to be convinced but Master Wong still sent him back inside the tent.

His face however didn’t look good when he stepped out. How could he look good when he had to talk to that Gu Li!

Wuwu….Master Wong wanted to cry but didn’t have any tears to shed.

He comforted himself by saying that it was all for his little disciple as he walked in the direction Gu Li had gone.
