Chapter 2051: His Presence
Long Siye knew them well. If they had Gu Xijiu in their hands, she would be tortured to the maximum extent, if not killed, especially since she had thoroughly offended all four of them. He believed that they would seize the opportunity to get rid of her. However, there was nothing he could do, even though he could already foresee the consequences. His power and strength were too weak to protect her.
"Instructor Long, don’t worry about me. Let me go with them," Gu Xijiu offered weakly. She did not want to get her friend into trouble. Moreover, Long Siye would not be able to stop them from taking her away. If he insisted on defending her, he would most probably lose his career or even his life.
Under current circumstances, she knew that she would not be able to get away from them anymore. Nonetheless, she was intrigued by the fact that they returned. Why would they turn back so suddenly? Did someone divulge the severity of her injuries to them?
Long Siye looked utterly helpless. Without leaving her side, he tried to make another offer, "In that case, let me take her to back to the emperor."
Tie Zheng was impatient. "You? Who do you think you are? Your relationship with her has yet to be determined. Just now, you even stood up for her, which makes you one of her accomplices. Leave! If you refuse, I shall bring this matter to a close in the harshest way possible."
Armed, the other two guardians surrounded them in a siege. All of a sudden, someone from afar spoke contemptuously, "If I am going to be her witness, does that make me one of the accomplices?"
In search of the voice, the three guardians looked up curiously. Gu Xijiu was half lying on Lu Wu’s body as support at that very moment. The sudden sound caused quite a stir to her, for she recognized it. It was Di Fuyi! She looked up, too, and saw Di Fuyi floating in the air, on the back Bai Ze. He dressed entirely in white, which was rarely seen.
