Chapter 494: Chapter 352: Can’t Bring Back Home to Raise

Gu Changsheng glanced sideways upon hearing the words and raised his eyebrows, "Is your Inner Strength really that much weaker than your senior brother’s?"

Damn it, could that evildoer Zhou Mu actually hear them talking from such a distance? How come two disciples trained by the same master differed so greatly?

Borjigin Nian rolled her eyes upon hearing this, "Do you think everyone is as heaven-defying as my senior brother? Not only is he extremely intelligent, but he also inherited a cycle of sixty years of cultivation from someone else, which makes his martial arts training twice as effective. How can I compare with that?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng suddenly found himself at a loss for words!

Alright then, an evildoer is indeed an evildoer! You can’t treat him like an ordinary person!

And you can’t expect regular people to be as superhuman as he is!

"Your senior brother said to Crown Prince Chen, ’It’s been a long time since we last met, I hope all is well.’ Crown Prince Chen replied, ’I was just passing through on my mission to Great Zhou and thought you would be busy with the war in Southern Fujian. It’s fortunate and unexpected to meet you here!’" Gu Changsheng spoke as he stared at the two below with an animated tone.

Upon hearing this, Borjigin Nian was instantly dumbstruck!

She couldn’t even bother to look at the handsome man anymore, and stared incredulously at Gu Changsheng!

"Crap! Crown Prince Chen is clearly playing dumb with wide eyes! Look at him, does he look even slightly surprised?" Gu Changsheng repeated the opening remarks of the two, then couldn’t help but expose their pretense.

Turning her head to see Borjigin Nian’s dumbfounded expression, Gu Changsheng waved his hand in front of her, puzzled, "Hey! Are you dumb? You’re not looking at the handsome guy and staring at me for what?"

Was she as good-looking as a flower? You couldn’t see a blossom with more looking, could you?

That’s not right! She was very good-looking, but what was there to see in a woman watching another woman?

And were you hoping to make her blush or something?

"Gu... Gu Changsheng! How can you hear their conversation? Could it be that your Inner Strength is higher than mine?" Borjigin Nian finally came to her senses and asked in surprise, her hands quickly grabbing Gu Changsheng’s pulse.

The pulse of someone with Inner Strength is different from ordinary people, and Borjigin Nian was eager to verify it at once!

"In broad daylight, stop touching me like that!" Gu Changsheng quickly freed her wrist and rolled her eyes, "Inner Strength, that profound and arcane thing, I don’t have any of it! How could I be higher than you?"

As she spoke, Gu Changsheng hurriedly continued as if afraid that Borjigin Nian wouldn’t believe her, "Don’t forget, I can’t leverage power, and I couldn’t even cross the river in the city; it was you who helped me!"

Upon hearing this, Borjigin Nian still looked doubtful and murmured, "But that doesn’t make sense! How can it be that I can’t hear them, but you can?"

At this, Gu Changsheng laughed outright, and there was a cunning look to his smile, "Lip reading! Knowing what is said by watching the lips, get it?"

When Borjigin Nian heard this, her doubt turned to disbelief as she widened her deep eyes, "Are you saying you can read lips? Like, seeing someone’s mouth move and knowing what they’re saying kind of lip reading?"

Gu Changsheng nodded noncommittally.

Of course, she could read lips. Otherwise, did you really expect her to have the capacity to hear everything like that evildoer?

She was a regular person! She only dealt with things that science could explain!

Lip reading is a must-learn course for special forces soldiers, and as the sole female military doctor of the special forces, she, Gu Changsheng, naturally excelled at it!

Seeing Gu Changsheng nod, Borjigin Nian instantly grabbed her arm with a look of admiration, "Wow! Gu Changsheng, you are simply amazing! Teach me, will you? I want to learn lip reading too!"

"Impressive, right? You haven’t seen the real impressive part of me yet! Let me tell you, I know much more!" said Gu Changsheng with an air of conceit, raising her chin proudly, "Lip reading is crucial! It’s a great eavesdropping tool, a vital skill when moving through the Itinerant World. If you want to learn, beg me!"

"Stop!" Borjigin Nian couldn’t stand her conceited look and instantly rolled her eyes.

It was the clashing between like natures! When two proud women became friends, mutual sabotage was inevitable!

"Not worrying about that for now, see what your senior brother and Sima Changhao are talking about next?" Borjigin Nian urged, noting the two men’s pleasant conversation below.

Gu Changsheng glanced at her keen interest with a lack of enthusiasm, then glanced downward with a half-hearted voice, "What else can they be talking about? Your senior brother inconsiderately inquired about Crown Prince Chen’s father! And then Crown Prince Chen even more inconsiderately brought up your senior brother’s grandfather!"

In such a situation, which is similar to a state visit, their speech naturally falls into that official routine, just a matter of going through the motions!

Upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s comment, Borjigin Nian immediately rolled her eyes, "Who taught you to talk like that? They would never speak that way!"

Gu Changsheng nodded his head.

Indeed, they hadn’t spoken in such a manner!

Damn it, one was Great Zhou’s Undefeated War God, His Highness Prince Mu, and the other, the unanointed ruler, Crown Prince of Southern Chen!

Their words were much more dignified and assertive than hers!

"Huh? Crown Prince Chen actually brought up that bitch Huo Shuixian!" Gu Changsheng spoke in puzzlement.

Crown Prince Chen was truly no ordinary character! Not only did he look noble and suave, but he also paid extra attention to beauties!

"Nian, are people from the Four Kingdoms so concerned about Liuzhou City? How do they know everything about the City Lord attracting a Beauty, and even know when the Beauty is sick?" Gu Changsheng blinked her innocent eyes curiously.

The Crown Prince of Southern Chen actually said that he had heard the daughter of Great Zhou’s Grand Tutor, the number one beauty under heaven, Huo Shuixian, was feeling unwell in Liuzhou City. Now that he couldn’t see her, he felt somewhat regretful!

To Gu Changsheng’s knowledge, Liuzhou City, part of Zhou Mu’s territory, has always been heavily guarded, with very little information leaking out!

Unexpectedly, this Crown Prince of Southern Chen seems to know quite a lot about it!

"Isn’t that stating the obvious! My senior brother is Great Zhou’s War God! Which of the other Three Kingdoms doesn’t fear him to some extent? Naturally, they pay extra attention to Liuzhou City!" Borjigin Nian immediately gave Gu Changsheng a disdainful look.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng instantly understood!

Alright then, talk about deep undercover work! This era is actually rife with deep undercover operations!

"In that case, I presume you Northern Mongols have also planted many agents in Liuzhou City!" Gu Changsheng hadn’t forgotten Borjigin Nian’s identity as the Northern Mongolian Princess and casually dropped the hint.

Upon hearing this, Borjigin Nian’s brows furrowed, "Do you need to ask? Among the Four Kingdoms, aside from Great Zhou itself, all must have planted spies in Liuzhou City! But rest assured, my senior brother also has agents in the Northern Mongol Royal Tent. He might even know more about the comings and goings of the Northern Mongol Royal Family than I do!"

"Cough cough!" Gu Changsheng coughed twice upon hearing Borjigin Nian’s naive words and couldn’t help but sigh, "Unspoken understanding, indeed!"

Isn’t this exactly what playing the undercover game without speaking of it is all about?

It’s all about who can outsmart whom, isn’t it?

Indeed, at the center of the whirlpool of power, no matter the era, the waters are invariably deep!

Gu Changsheng, bored out of his mind, repeated the conversation between the two for a while, which was pretty much just pleasantries. Zhou Mu was preparing to host a banquet to welcome the Crown Prince of Southern Chen and has cordially invited him to extend his stay in Liuzhou City.

The Crown Prince of Southern Chen, overwhelmed by the warm welcome, half-heartedly agreed...

All these signs, gave off a mutual desire for something more!

One looked as stunningly beautiful as an Exiled Immortal, and the other carried himself with an imposing and handsome presence...

Instantly, it gave off the sensation of talented and handsome young men!

Gu Changsheng was suddenly embarrassed by himself!

His imagination ran wild, quickly conjuring up all sorts of scenarios... but as soon as he thought of the evildoer amongst the ruined chrysanthemums, Gu Changsheng quickly shook his head to dismiss those fanciful thoughts from his mind!

She’s evil, hallelujah!

Oh sin, oh sin! She actually let her imagination run wild, defiling her own evildoer. If he found out, what would then become of her?

Gu Changsheng quickly made a sign over his mouth, damn it, these thoughts must be extinguished within her mind and must not, by some misfortune, slip out!

If that happened, things would truly become serious!

"I must say, Sima Changhao really does justice to his title as the number one handsome man in Southern Chen. He’s indeed very good-looking!" Borjigin Nian continued to eagerly look at the handsome man, sharing her thoughts all the while.

"Give it up! He is the Crown Prince of Southern Chen, the future Emperor of Southern Chen! If you take a fancy to him, then it involves a union between the Imperial Families and the stability of the Four Kingdoms!" Gu Changsheng unsympathetically poured cold water all over her.

What’s so great about being a Princess? Even if Borjigin Nian loved handsome men, when it concerned members of the Imperial Family, she surely couldn’t truly do as she pleased!

So, status is a burden, isn’t it? Whether it’s Zhou Mu or Borjigin Nian, none can truly be free!

Not as free as Gu Changsheng!

"Tsk tsk... He’s really not bad looking! If he weren’t the Crown Prince of Southern Chen, I’d definitely capture him and keep him in my residence!" Gu Changsheng said with a regretful face, "What a pity! Truly such a pity!"

Before Borjigin Nian could respond, she felt a sharp gaze sweep over and immediately, feeling horrified, tugged at Gu Changsheng’s sleeve, "Mas... master, he’s looking this way again..."

As soon as Gu Changsheng heard this, he immediately looked down with a panicked face!

Damn it! He really was looking over! And this time his gaze was particularly unfriendly, as if he could devour someone!

Blame her, blame her! Caught up in the sight of a handsome man, she couldn’t contain her excitement and lost her composure!

Damn, caught red-handed again!

Zhou Mu just glanced back for a moment before turning away.

But clearly, Gu Changsheng no longer felt any passion for watching handsome men!

Damn it, with the evildoer around as a mood-chilling agent, even the most passionate excitement could be extinguished in minutes, leaving not even a trace!

"Alright, alright! No more looking! Damn it. Even if you look, you can’t bring him home to keep, so it’s pointless to stare and make your eyes water," Gu Changsheng said dejectedly to Borjigin Nian, waving her off.

"Let me have a few more glances! I haven’t had my fill yet!" Borjigin Nian said with a look of reluctance...
