The Journey of Flower Chapter 89

"The scars on your body, how did you get them?" Dou Lan Gan asked. The wind wasn't as strong as the outside, but it was still bone-chilling cold in the cave.

Hua Qian Gu took the hot water he handed her, lowered her head quietly and drank it. She was not used to him staring at her, it was excessively overbearing.

——Jue Qing pool water.

She wrote on the stone table.

"No kidding, like I wouldn't know it's from the Jue Qing pool water? What I meant is for whom." Dou Lan Gan impatiently looked at her, he didn't understand how the Demon God's power that everyone was fighting over somehow ended up in this tiny little girl.

——That is my personal business, I would like it if Senior don't ask me that again.

Dou Lan Gan laughed coldly, she needed his help and still dared to speak to him this way.

"Don't ask? Seems like the one you have feelings for is the brat Zhu Ran, willing to let him use you, once he leaves the savage wilderness, he will rely on your body's demon power to help him conquer the six realms, I might as well kill you now."

—— So you agree to help us think of a method to leave?

Dou Lan Gan nodded, he couldn't avoid going back forever. It is something he must face one day, so many years had passed, he had already gotten over it, let nature take its course. He extended his right hand and looked at his palm, on it was a long scar.

"You know her?"

Hua Qian Gu furrowed her eyebrows, of course she knew her, how could she not? If not for her, Teacher wouldn't have been poisoned, if it wasn't for her, she wouldn't need to steal the holy instruments, she even killed a person and blamed it on her, she used her to release the Demon God. If it wasn't for her, all this wouldn't have happened. And the reason for all she had done was to rescue this person in front of her.

—— It was she who plotted for the Demon God to be born, precisely to save you.

Dou Lan Gan was surprised as he looked at Hua Qian Gu, he was speechless for half a day. He had only thought that this girl simply saw Lan Yu Lan Feng before, that is why she knows of their relationship. Back then in order to protect her, their relationship was extremely secretive, from beginning to end no matter what the Heaven did to extort a confession, no matter how his blood brother Nan Ling Han persuaded him, he didn't mention to anyone that the person was her.

When Hua Qian Gu said Lan Yu Lan Feng was waiting for him, he thought she was simply just waiting, perhaps because of guilt. But seeing Hua Qian Gu's complicated expression, he knew that wasn't the case. Since the birth of the Demon God was plotted by Lan Yu Lan Feng, then Hua Qian Gu's banishment should be caused by her too.

He couldn't help but laugh, shaking his head, what kind of game is she playing? He never understood her, what he was able to do for her has been done, what he was able to give has been given, he was far away in the savage wilderness, ought to not have any useful value to her.

It's funny now that he thinks about it, his whole life, what he hated most was to let others take advantage of him, but yet he was repeatedly willing to let people use him, in the past, and now. However, this does not matter…after all, he still wanted to go back because there is something he wanted to ask her.

"You guys should rest here tonight, tomorrow there will be a big snowstorm, we'll wait several days until the snow stops, then we can set off." Dou Lan Gan said coldly, but treated them with more ease.

He looked at Hua Qian Gu's damaged face, just a child after all, suffered so many hardships, and all was caused by Lan Yu Lan Feng, he let out a sigh, forget it, what she owes, he'll help her pay.

Zhu Ran smirked, he had persuaded Dou Lan Gan so many times with no success. So all you needed was "Lan Yu Lan Feng," four simple words.

"Thank you Senior for helping."

"Don't be so pleased with yourself, I'm only helping this ugly girl."

Her body carried the Demon God's power, yet she was only a foolish and weak child, if he didn't look after her, he was afraid Zhu Ran would try to control her.

Dou Lan Gan went out to the icehouse and got some snow mushrooms, returned to the cave's entrance, caught sight of Hua Qian Gu helping Snowy wrap up its foot wound, using a strip of cloth ripped from her own cloak, making an enormous bow on its foot. Snowy had always been irritated by other humans, but towards her it seemed to be affectionate.

"You don't need to take care of it, it's just a small injury, it will naturally heal in several days."

Hua Qian Gu nodded, holding onto the snowman's arm.

"Go inside, you'll catch a cold."Dou Lan Gan looked at her thin, tiny body in the snow, his heart ached.

"Snowy, return to the mountain."

Snowman let out "ao ao" sounds, rubbed against Hua Qian Gu and left.

Hua Qian Gu looked at him, her hand gestured to say: It's called Snowy?

Dou Lan Gan turned around, walking into the cave: "If a snowman isn't called snowy, what do you call it?"

Hua Qian Gu covered her mouth and laughed, waved at Snowy from afar, got up from the snow, walked into the cave, the bonfire was roaring, she finally felt a little bit warmer.

——Let me cook.

Hua Qian Gu took snow mushrooms from his hand and some ice pistils, so these are the stuff he eats, no wonder he could live in this snow land.

Zhu Ran meditated quietly by the bonfire, opened his eyes and smiled: "Senior, your leg isn't convenient, let Qian Gu handle the cooking, she is very skillful."

Dou Lan Gan sat down, looked at Hua Qian Gu moving left to right, hand and foot moving swiftly, in no time she cooked a pot of delicious thick soup.

Holding the piping hot soup in his hands, taking a bite, indeed compared to his this was much better, no wonder Snowy was never willing to try the things he made.

Hua Qian Gu helped Snorting Beast and Ya Zi Beast with their food. They sat by the bonfire and enjoyed their meal. She raised her head and saw Dou Lan Gan looking at her, she gave him a faint smile.

Dou Lan Gan's eyebrows furrowed, just moments ago Zhu Ran roughly told him about what Hua Qian Gu went through. He didn't understand how this ugly girl can still eat and smile like that.

As Hua Qian Gu ate, she watched their silhouettes on the cave's wall, feeling warmth in her heart, finally tasting something sweet. She hadn't had this kind of feeling in a while.

"Hey brat, what is your next plan?"Dou Lan Gan asked.

"Find Ghost Fu Mu and Immortal Ming Fan. In order to leave, we must join everyone together."

Snort "As expected. It sounds like you already know a way out."

"I simply want to try, but don't have certainty it will succeed."

Hua Qian Gu looked at him, no wonder, but why didn't he tell her anything?

"Those two are easy to persuade, once they hear of a way out, they would definitely try. The reason you never took action is because if they decline, you wouldn't be able to defeat them. That's why you want this girl to take the lead and then have her control the others, right?"

Zhu Ran's thoughts were exposed by him but his face still didn't turn red, his heart didn't palpitate: "Senior is indeed intelligent, I can't conceal anything from you."

"You only roped me into borrowing my reputation in order to give this side an increase of strength, afraid those two won't be easily convinced. How are you certain they will follow me? I'm already half a disabled person, won't be able to defeat them. Our top priority is to restore as much of the Demon God's power as possible." Dou Lan Gan gently sighed, a god of war with a broken leg is like bird with a broken wing.

Zhu Ran smile and nodded: "So I'll rely on Senior to restore the Demon God's power."

This was his real purpose of this trip. Dou Lan Gan's Seal technique was the best in the world, there was no one else in the world that knew how to undo Bai Zhi Hua's blood seal besides him.
