Those Classmates who Suddenly Disappeared-Chapter 1771: Targeting You

"What’s happening to me?" Gu Ling felt lost and helpless, as if she had been in a long, long dream. Reflecting on those experiences seemed somewhat unreal.

Lin Yue hurried over and embraced Gu Ling tightly. At that moment, Lin Yue couldn’t hold back his emotions and cried tears of joy, "It’s so great, Gu Ling, you’re really alive."

Gu Ling was initially stunned, then she felt herself enveloped by a gentle yet firm force, warming her heart. She was sure that this was the person she had loved deeply, who had never changed.

The nearby staff and Leng Feng didn’t want to interrupt the moment, but just staring blankly wasn’t a solution either.

Leng Feng fake-coughed, "Sorry to interrupt you two, but we’d better leave here first."

Hearing this, Gu Ling and Lin Yue awkwardly separated.

Lin Yue took Gu Ling’s hand, and the two of them left together, making Leng Feng seem unnecessary.

"Wait, Master, I know you’re happy, but you should be mindful of the situation," Leng Feng ran to catch up, silently sighing about how everyone seems unreliable when it comes to matters of the heart.

The sounds of battle didn’t diminish; instead, they grew more intense, as if the Tower of Darkness was shaking.

Curious, Gu Ling wanted to know what was happening when she suddenly remembered what had occurred before she fell asleep.

At this moment, a group of people approached quickly.

Lin Yue thought they were enemies and immediately tensed up. He didn’t want Gu Ling, just being rescued, to be harmed by enemies again.

"This time, I absolutely won’t back down," Lin Yue silently vowed, only to realize the incoming group was comprised of Gu Fan, Ouyang Jin, and others.

Gu Fan saw Lin Yue and was overjoyed, glad to see his companions. He called out, "Are you all okay..."

Soon, Gu Fan noticed Gu Ling and was taken by surprise. Gazing at her, he confirmed it was indeed his sister.

"Are you Xiaoling, or are you not? Could it be..." Gu Fan felt both shocked and delighted.

Leng Feng explained the situation, making Gu Fan aware that the Dark Lord hadn’t killed Gu Ling but had merely injured and imprisoned her. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com

Gu Fan couldn’t care less about the Dark Lord’s reasons for doing so; as long as Gu Ling was alive, he was relieved not to bear the guilt of having killed his sister.

"Xiaoling, I..." Gu Fan stepped forward to speak, but was met with Gu Ling’s hateful glare.

"What’s wrong, Xiaoling? Why are you looking at me like that?" Before Gu Fan could understand, Gu Ling charged at him, kicking him hard in the leg, clearly venting her anger.

Of course, one kick wasn’t enough for Gu Ling. She followed it with another, yelling as she hit, "I’ll beat you, you beastly brother who harms your sister. I’m such a good sister, and you don’t know how to cherish me. In my next life, I won’t be your sister; I’ll be your elder sister and beat you up from childhood to adulthood."

"Xiaoling, listen to me, it wasn’t me," Gu Fan tried to dodge while anxiously explaining, but Gu Ling wouldn’t listen, intent on kicking him.

Finally, Lin Yue and Leng Feng managed to pull Gu Ling back, and Lin Yue explained the difference between the Gu Fan before her and the Dark Lord.

Gu Ling was momentarily stunned, then scrutinized Gu Fan as if looking at something curious.

"Actually..." Gu Fan tried to get close, but Gu Ling suddenly erupted again, continuing to punch and kick him.

Gu Fan could only evade, pleading, "Xiaoling, what are you doing? It wasn’t me who hurt you; it’s the Dark Lord. Justice has its name and owner; don’t take it out on me."

While hitting, Gu Ling cursed, "Aren’t you the Dark Lord? The one who hurt me was my brother, and aren’t you my brother? I’m hitting you."

The others watched as Gu Ling chased Gu Fan, wanting to help but felt this was a matter between siblings that outsiders shouldn’t intervene in. Even Lin Yue could only watch silently.

After a while of chasing, Gu Ling was out of breath, holding onto a pillar, breathing heavily while glaring at Gu Fan with hatred, "You’re awful, daring to run away."

Gu Fan gave an awkward smile, "Xiaoling, calm down. Although I’m the same person as the Dark Lord, we’re not from the same timeline. No one blames me for the Dark Lord’s wrongdoings, so don’t hold it against me."

Hearing this, Gu Ling became even angrier, "I won’t hold it against you. Should I hold it against the Dark Lord? I’m scared when I see him, so I can only beat you up."

"What do you mean? You don’t dare settle with the Dark Lord, so you settle with me?" Now it was Gu Fan’s turn to be angry.

Gu Ling revealed a sly grin, "You’re my brother, right? If you’re indeed the caring brother who used to love me, you’d understand my feelings, wouldn’t you?"

At this point, everyone showed expressions of disdain, finally understanding why Gu Ling only gave a symbolic kick or two at first, but chased Gu Fan like mad after learning his identity. So that’s why.

Gu Fan restrained himself, suppressing his temper. What else could he do? After all, Gu Ling was his sister, and for her, he had to endure some grievances.

"Alright, this place isn’t safe—leave quickly," Gu Fan instructed a remould person to guide Lin Yue, Gu Ling, and Leng Feng out.

Unhappy with the arrangement, Gu Ling quickly asked, "Brother, aren’t you coming with us?"

Gu Fan replied, "I’m not leaving; I’m going to settle the score with the Dark Lord, and tally up yours too."

"You’re settling the score with the Dark Lord? You’re going to fight yourself?" Gu Ling thought it through and became excited, eagerly anticipating a rare spectacle of good drama.

Gu Ling immediately declared her unwillingness to miss two brothers fighting. She wanted to witness history.

"Don’t cause trouble, leave quickly," Gu Fan said, twisting Gu Ling’s ear to make her behave.

Actually, Lin Yue also wanted to see what degree the ultimate battle between Gu Fan and the Dark Lord would reach. But the immediate priority was ensuring Gu Ling’s safety, and Lin Yue couldn’t bear the thought of losing Gu Ling again.

Thus, despite Gu Ling’s reluctance, she was dragged away by Lin Yue. Naturally, this didn’t please her, and she cursed at Gu Fan, calling him a stinky brother and a bastard.

But Leng Feng didn’t leave; he wanted to accompany Gu Fan to challenge the Dark Lord, and at the same time, avenge Leng Le.

"Alright, today we father and son will advance and retreat together," Gu Fan nodded, his gaze offering Leng Feng the firmest encouragement.
