Chapter 1680: Chapter 853: Seems They’re All Third Layer Heaven

"No matter.

Even without using those trump cards, with my current strength, I can hold my own against her. The chance of winning is fifty-fifty.

She is a wise person and knows how to make the right choice."

Situ Qingfeng heard Gu Sheng’s confident words, and though he still felt a bit uneasy, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

He trusted Gu Sheng’s judgment and ability.

At this moment, the tightly closed door made a creaking sound and opened from the inside.

Nangong Yuexia appeared at the doorway.

Today, she wasn’t wearing the palace gown from yesterday but had changed into a well-fitted, smoothly contoured light purple armor. The armor was inscribed with faint cloud and mist runes that shimmered subtly, indicating that it was no ordinary item.

This attire made her appear less regal and more heroic and capable, indicating her serious and cautious attitude at this moment.

Her gaze swept over Gu Sheng and Situ Qingfeng outside the door, particularly lingering for a moment on Gu Sheng, whose aura seemed to be deeper and more restrained. A hint of subtle surprise flashed in her eyes.

She could sense that overnight, this young man seemed to have undergone some kind of change.

Gu Sheng’s mind shifted slightly as he quietly dismantled the True Qi Barrier he had set up just in case.

Nangong Yuexia’s red lips parted slightly, her voice cold and devoid of much emotion.

"I’ve figured it out."

She turned sideways and gestured invitingly towards the courtyard.

"Come inside to discuss."

Having said that, she turned first and walked towards the depth of the courtyard. Gu Sheng did not hesitate, stepping forward to follow. Situ Qingfeng followed quickly upon seeing this.

However, just as they stepped into the courtyard, Gu Sheng’s steps faltered slightly.

His gaze, sharp as a hawk, swept over the surroundings of the courtyard.

The courtyard, not particularly spacious but arranged with sophisticated elegance, unexpectedly housed over a dozen silent figures apart from Nangong Yuexia. These individuals, male and female, wore varying attire; some appeared like old farmers, others like merchants, and some were entirely shrouded in cloaks.

Scattered around the corners of the courtyard, behind the columns, and even within the shadows of the rockery, they seemed to stand randomly. In fact, they formed a subtle combined strike formation that completely sealed the central area of the courtyard.

What was more astounding was that although these people tried their best to restrain their aura, the stern, murderous intent, akin to an ironclad battlefield, was impossible to conceal.
