Chapter 632: Chapter 632

"But Your Highness asked me..."

Gu Lili waved her hand, "We’ll go together."

She went downstairs holding the Jiuquan Sword, called Tang Qingli over, then went to the guest room and instructed him, "I am going to the underworld, watch over this sword and my body. Until I return, don’t leave them unattended, understood?"

"Young Madam, has something happened?" Tang Qingli looked at her with a solemn face.

"I’ll explain when I get back."

Gu Lili lay down and her soul left her body to go to the underworld with Xiao Bai.

The underworld was tightly guarded at the time.

Upon reaching the Seventh Prince Mansion to inquire, they found out that apart from the Netherworld King and the Twelfth Prince who was imprisoned without cultivation, all other princes had gone to war.

When asking for the location, nobody would tell her.

Gu Lili could not grasp any clues and, ultimately, had to leave the underworld dejected.

She couldn’t even eat, and spent an entire night seated on her bed, sleepless. Xiao Bai simply dragged a stool to sit by the door, dare not disobey Long Yubei’s words.

Not until morning, utterly exhausted, did she finally fall into a fitful sleep.

She really hoped to wake up to see him return safely.

A person troubled in mind does not sleep peacefully even in dreams.

That was how Gu Lili felt, her anxious worries morphed into nightmares such that she woke up in a cold sweat.

Outside, the sun was shining brightly.

But it couldn’t shine into her heart.

Seeing Xiao Bai still there, Gu Lili knew Long Yubei hadn’t returned.

If he had, Xiao Bai would certainly have returned to the underworld.

Looking at the clock, it was eleven.

Her stomach was growling, Gu Lili put on slippers and went to wash up.

Breakfast was prepared abundantly. Although very hungry, she ate very little.

Seeing her eat so little, Tang Qingli said, "Eat a bit more, that’s not enough."

"I can’t eat." This anxious wait was agony, Gu Lili thought carefully then asked Xiao Bai, "Where do you think the battle might be?"

"I dare not speculate rashly, Miss Gu. Even if you knew, you couldn’t go. You lack cultivation. Your presence would only add to the chaos and make the prince worry about your safety, leading to distractions. Just wait here peacefully, I believe given the prince’s affection for you, he will come to you as soon as he returns."

Gu Lili thought about it too, she might be capable in the mortal world, but she was nothing in front of these beings.

Even knowing the location and going would only add to the chaos. Better not to go.

Thus, she sat on the balcony doing cross-stitch, focusing intently.

To Gu Lili, it felt like four years.

She was utterly exhausted in mind and energy.

She couldn’t continue with her cross-stitch, feeling like her mind was about to explode.

Especially desperate to know how the battle was going.

And particularly keen to know if Long Yubei was safe and sound.

Xiao Bai noticed her increasing anxiety, "Miss Gu, no news is the best news, it means the prince is fine, so stop worrying needlessly."

Her heart eased a bit, reassured by Xiao Bai’s words, no news is indeed the best news.

She relaxed slightly. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel{f}ire.net

After spending two hours at the gym and soaking in a hot spring, she changed clothes, drove out, and went to the office.

When Antonio saw her, he exclaimed, "I say, madam, I was calling for you desperately yesterday and you wouldn’t show up, and today without a call, here you are. Tell me, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?"
