Rural Doctor Enters the City: Whoever Touches My Wife, I’ll Take Them Down!

Chapter 1977: A Pact Sealed with a High Five

Seeing Zhou Yu’s gaze, Que’er trembled all over in fright.

She desperately tried to move back, as far away from Zhou Yu as possible, but because she was trapped by the Formation, she couldn’t escape.

Que’er could only watch helplessly as Zhou Yu approached her.

When Zhou Yu came up to her, he directly reached out and grabbed Que’er.

At that moment, Que’er felt utterly despairing.

She thought she was going to die.

Unexpectedly, in the next moment, Zhou Yu’s palm slapped her a few times, and then the True Yuan confining her inside instantly collapsed.

"Ah—"

Que’er finally could speak.

She screamed in fright.

Zhou Yu said helplessly:

"Miss Que’er, could you please calm down so we can talk properly!"

Hearing Zhou Yu’s words, Que’er barely managed to calm down. She looked at Zhou Yu in fear.

"You... who exactly are you?"

"What do you want to do?"

"Please, don’t kill me!"

Zhou Yu smiled wryly and said:

"Miss Que’er, when did I say I was going to kill you?"

"You..."

Que’er was taken aback by Zhou Yu’s question.

Then, she said tremblingly:

"I saw you killed Elder Niu..."

"My father said that people who do such things usually kill to silence others."

Hearing this, Zhou Yu burst out laughing.

This naive and lovely girl knew quite a bit, surprisingly.

"Your father is right!"

"For safety, indeed, it would make sense to kill to silence."

Hearing this, Que’er shivered in fear.

"But..."

Then Zhou Yu continued:

"Miss Que’er, have you forgotten that I made a Heavenly Yuan Blood Oath with you."

"According to the Blood Oath, I must be loyal to you. How could I harm you?"

Hearing this, Que’er was directly stunned.

She suddenly remembered then.

Right.

Zhou Yu had signed the Heavenly Yuan Blood Oath.

Those who have made the Blood Oath cannot harm their master!

Thinking of this, Que’er’s previously tense mood instantly relaxed a lot.

However, at this moment, Zhou Yu’s face suddenly came close to Que’er.

Seeing Zhou Yu suddenly appearing in front of her, their noses almost touching, Que’er screamed in fright.

But she was held tightly by Zhou Yu’s shoulders.

"You, you, you..."

Que’er was so scared she couldn’t complete a sentence.

Zhou Yu smiled slightly and said:

"Miss Que’er, don’t worry, there’s a bug!"

After saying, Zhou Yu released her shoulders and opened his hand in front of her.

Sure enough, there was a bug in Zhou Yu’s palm, but it had already been slapped dead by him.

Zhou Yu threw away the bug’s corpse and then smiled knowingly and said:

"Miss Que’er, although I’ve made the Blood Oath, if I truly wanted to harm you, there are many ways I could circumvent it."

"I wonder if Miss Que’er understands what I mean?"

At this moment, although Que’er was still very scared, as the daughter of the leader of the Skywind Mercenary Corps, she wasn’t completely naive.

Que’er forced herself to stay calm.

"Mister Zhou, if there’s something you want, just say it directly."

Hearing this, Zhou Yu smiled slightly.

"Miss Que’er, you indeed are smart."

"It’s actually very simple."

"I won’t harm you, and I will stay by your side to help you as per the agreement of the Heavenly Yuan Blood Oath."

"In exchange, you must forget everything you saw today."

"You can’t even tell your father."

"As long as you can do this, we will remain at peace."

"In three years, I will leave the Skywind Mercenary Corps."

"In this life, it seems we might not have another chance to meet."

"What do you think?"

Hearing this, Que’er was taken aback.

"Is... is that all?"

Zhou Yu shrugged.

"What else then?"

Actually, Zhou Yu’s rationality told him the best approach would be to kill Que’er and leave quickly.

The Heavenly Origin World is vast, and going to another place would likely allow him to remain undiscovered.

But Zhou Yu didn’t do that.

Firstly, randomly killing people doesn’t align with his nature.

Secondly, Que’er indirectly saved him and helped him.

Zhou Yu wouldn’t repay kindness with enmity, moreover, having Que’er around equals having a legitimate identity.

This legitimate identity would be very important for Zhou Yu in the future.

He could utilize the Skywind Mercenary Corps to do many things.

So, based on these reasons, Zhou Yu ultimately made this decision.

Seeing this, Que’er nodded repeatedly like a pecking chick.

"Okay, okay, okay, no problem."

"I can do that."

Zhou Yu smiled slightly and extended his hand.

"Then it’s settled."

Seeing this, Que’er’s face blushed slightly, then she extended her hand to high-five with Zhou Yu as a pledge.

After finishing this, Que’er finally relaxed.

Her pure and good-natured character also resurged.

"Mister Zhou, where should we go next?"

Zhou Yu smiled slightly.

"That depends on Miss Que’er. I’m just here to follow orders."

Hearing this, Que’er quickly asked:

"Then, can we return to Black Sand City?"

Zhou Yu pondered for a moment and said:

"Going back is not impossible, but it would pose some risks."

"Because Black Sand City might have already been overrun by Fire-eyed Flying Ants."

If that’s really the case, going back means walking right into a trap."

Hearing this, Que’er bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes.

"But... I don’t know if Mr. Liu and the others are still alive."

"They all watched me grow up. I... I want to check on them first."

Seeing Que’er so worried, Zhou Yu sighed internally.

This girl is just too kind-hearted.

Zhou Yu thought about it and said:

"Alright, I can accompany you back to see."

"However, this journey is very dangerous, and you must follow my lead."

Hearing Zhou Yu agree, Que’er immediately wiped her tears and nodded quickly.

"Alright, alright."

Zhou Yu nodded and said no more.

He helped Que’er get up, then identified the direction, and the two headed towards Black Sand City.

Since Zhou Yu’s True Yuan hadn’t recovered, the two could only walk.

Amidst the scorching sun, very soon Que’er turned pale, stumbling as they went.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu was quite helpless, so he picked Que’er up and carried her.

Initially, Que’er was very tense, but after sensing Zhou Yu’s pure and unwavering gaze, she completely relaxed.

Given Zhou Yu’s current physical strength, carrying a girl under a hundred pounds was easy, and not only did their speed not decrease, it actually increased.

After a day and a night, Black Sand City finally reappeared in Zhou Yu’s sight.

However, seeing the current state of Black Sand City, Zhou Yu couldn’t help but reveal a horrified expression...
