Chapter 423: So Powerful?
With that, he hung up.
The priest stood there for a long time before calling the elder in. “Do you know those ordinary people?”
“I only know Miss Su and that Mr. Yu Xiangyang.” One of them was very skilled while the other had treated Gu Sheng’s father. Naturally, everyone remembered them.
“Do you know Gu Li?” The priest stared at the elder.
The elder was stunned. “Gu Li? Who is he? He’s also one of the four, right?”
“Never heard of it? That’s good.” The priest finally smiled.
The elder walked out of the room with a strange expression, but his impression of the priest was a little hard to explain.
He always felt that something was very wrong with the priest. He scratched his head and finally told the chief about this matter.
The chief was initially rather doubtful about this matter. Now that he heard the elder’s words, he finally felt that something was amiss. “Are you sure he said that?”
“That’s right.” The elder’s words were firm.
The chief didn’t say anything else this time. Instead, he went to look for the priest that very night. His face was grim. “Do you have something against ordinary people? I already said that they are Mr. Yu’s men.”
“I know. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything rash.” The priest looked very calm. “Chief, don’t worry. I won’t do anything to disgrace our race. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have spent so many years going to the International Association to seek protection.”
Upon hearing the priest’s words, the chief felt a little more confident. He sighed. “It’s good that you can think like this. Let’s not talk about how terrifying Mr. Yu is. Miss Su and Mr. Yu are both people who have helped our race. Just based on this alone, we can’t touch any of them.”

Upon hearing this, the priest frowned. “Chief, why do you think so? I already said that I have already found the Gu Family of the International Association for our family. Why are you still boosting the morale of others?”
“How powerful is the Gu Family? How can they compare to Mr. Yu?” The chief sighed.
Upon hearing that, the priest just chuckled and waved his hand. “Don’t worry about this, Master Gu. Do you know where the Gu family of the International Association lives? On Unknown Island! However, few people in the International Association dare to provoke them now. When Elder Gu comes, we don’t have to be polite to those two people overseas. You don’t know that those people are afraid of offending the people from Unknown Island!”
The chief was stunned. “That powerful?”
Regardless, he clearly recalled how the King of Mercenaries had forced Fu Meng away with just a name.
He was starting to believe the priest.
“Of course. When the time comes, we can interact with the subordinates of the Unknown Island’s King of Mercenaries. We don’t even need to be afraid of Mr. Yu. Why should we be afraid of a few ordinary people now?” The priest thought of Gu Li and sneered.
The next day, when Gu Sheng was looking for Su Huiqing to get his medicine, he happened to see Qu Yan and the rest who were playing Fight the Landlord on the ground.
Qu Yan played a card. Perhaps she was infected by Qing Zi, she was more curious about how almost everyone in the village was mobilized last night.
Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng also felt that there was nothing to hide and told them the truth. “Our high priest is back. He has already found the main family of Unknown Island. That elder from the Gu Family will rush over tomorrow. We might be able to meet in the International Association in the future.”
The moment he finished speaking, Yu Xiangyang spat out the potion in his mouth.

The Demon’s Bride
Elise had about to change into the dress that was lying on the corner of her bed when she heard a knock lightly calling from her door. Curious, she turned the door knob only to have a tall man towering in front of her.«Master Ian!» She called.Ian smiled with the usual mischievous smirk that he always used. His crimson eyes trailing a little over her room and spotted the black dress over her bed and shifted his eyes over to the woman in front of him. He stepped forward and spoke. «Where did you acquire that dress?»«Mr. Harland gave it to me.» Elise replied and strained her neck to see Ian’s brows knitted in its elegance.«Do you know why a man would love to give a woman a dress?» He gave the riddle that she always had to think twice before replying. But this time, she found no answer and instead shook her head. «I don’t know.»His grin grew bewitching as though something had stirred deep inside the scarlet eyes that he had. He slowly slid his hand over the collar of her dress, sending a cold shiver that startled her for a moment due to its freezing temperature. After unbuttoning the first two buttons on her collar, he tilted his head down, whispering to her ears. «Because they want to be the one to undress the cloth.»He paused and kissed her neck, turning the pale skin to red before retracting his move to fix his eyes on her and leisurely replied. «Unfortunately, you can’t wear the dress over there with this.» He chuckled and passed a box over to her hand. «And the fortunate news is I prepared a dress for you.»

The Stormcrow Cycle
Once a powerful and lauded witch, Ba'an salu-Ba'an now lives alone in a cave in the desert, waiting to die. When she rescues an outlander from certain death she becomes embroiled in a deadly game of politics and empire, of heart and soul, but worst of all--of hope and love and a chance at a peaceful future. Can a disgraced witch find a reason to live her life again--and if so, what price must she pay? The Stormcrow Cycle is a trilogy comprising of The Exile, The Lion, and Abomination. Tags or genres for each book: The Exile: romance, slice-of-life The Lion: romance, slice-of-life, politics Abomination: tragedy, high/epic fantasy (aka "Everything is on fire!") Updates once a week whenever I have time. Cross-posted on Wattpad and Scribble Hub. The CBMokedi cover will return! Excerpt: She looked down at him again. Young. Healthy, from what she could see, except for the wound that was killing him. He was handsome in a way that suggested a life of wealth and plenty. She did not think he had ever starved. Someone important. Her shadow fell across him, and he frowned. Blearily, he opened his eyes. They were amber and bright, even as he lay dying in the dirt. She could feel his soul, blazing inside of him like a fire refusing to die even as his body began to fail. He met her gaze, eyes widening in what she guessed was surprise—or shock. But he never looked away, staring up at her as though transfixed. Ba’an made her decision. She raised her hand and covered his eyes. In another moment, a murder of crows cawed as they took wing. The man and woman were gone from the road, leaving only the dead staring up into the sky. Note: This is a high-fantasy set in a low-magic world. The first book is largely character-driven and we really only hit the real plot in Book II, so if you're not fond of long epic yarns you ought to skip this one. I also don't include trigger warnings, but mind the "traumatizing content" tag--all societies minus one practice slavery and the world is indeed, rather grim!
