Chapter 570: She Is A Phoenix 2
The next morning, Gu Xijiu had made a date with Qian Lingyu to hear his report on his practice. However, he still had not shown up even after she had finished her morning lesson.
Surprisingly, she saw him walking frantically in circles outside the door. Even more surprisingly, Gu Canmo was there too.
Both of them came to her immediately.
The moment Gu Canmo saw her, he asked, "Is The Lord here?"
Gu Xijiu raised her brows then took a look at Gu Canmo. He seemed to be a little confounded and pale. However, his clothes were neat, and his posture was straight. He did not seem like someone who had just suffered severe punishment.
Gu Canmo had his punishment last night. It was the punishment that he deserved. The punishments were the ones that were given to the mussel, such as starvation, pinpricking, and burning.
The mussel itself supervised these punishments, so the disciples in the punishment hall did not dare to relax at all. The mussel had just come back this morning, and it was a little dejected and despondent, as it remembered how it screamed in anguish and pain when they carried out the punishment before. However, Gu Canmo was stiff like a wood when he was punished. He did not let out a sound at all. He gave the mussel a sense of failure.
The mussel said that the supervision was very weary, so he went home instead and had a good sleep. The supervision duties had worn the mussel down, but Gu Canmo, as the one who was being punished, seemed completely fine. He made Gu Xijiu feel that he indeed had the power and strength they said he possessed.
