Chapter 667 The Old Master Woke Up

　　Li Rui was surprised by Gu Li\'s question, wondering why he was asking this. 

　　"I heard some rumors in the City."

　　Actually, before he had gone to the Xi Manor with his shadow guards to kill her, he had done some investigations which had led him to find out that she was not a favored wangfei in Xi Manor. 

　　Though Prime Minister Xi had suddenly started to care for her, the rumor was that it was only because he had been entranced by her beauty for some time and it will fade soon. 

　　That\'s why, Gu Li had thought that though invading Xi Manor would be difficult, killing an unfavored wangfei would not be that difficult. 

　　However, in the past few days, he had also seen Xi Ying\'s behavior towards Li Rui. It left him confused because he thought of the possibility that this favor was only there because Li Rui was pregnant with his child so he wanted to confirm it with her. 

　　"Ying is nice."

　　Li Rui defended almost immediately interrupting Gu Li\'s thoughts. 

　　Looking at Gu Li with a serious expression on her face, she said 

　　"People only see the upper layer and then starts to make assumptions. We had some misunderstandings before and we have solved it."

　　She explained shortly. 

　　She had thought that Xi Ying wanted to destroy her clan to no remnants of it with Emperor but he only wanted the transfer of military power from her father and Clan to the Emperor. 

　　Actually she didn\'t have any problem with that. 

　　According to her, as long as the Emperor could let her clan live peacefully, it would be the best thing in return but her father didn\'t want to give upon the military power for some reason that she had been unable to understand till today. 

　　Fortunately, Xi Ying seemed to understand suddenly that the making Emperor the center of the power was also not a good choice. He had said this to her on his own. 

　　He had accepted that if an Emperor specially an Emperor lie Zhao Wang Lei would have been given the whole power then the Empire might have been destroyed by now. 

　　Though she didn\'t know the reason behind the change in his thoughts, she was happy that it came before her clan was destroyed. 

　　Because she knew no matter how hard she and her elder brother had been trying, she didn\'t have enough resources to protect her clan and one day she would have to accept defeat. 

　　On the day, her clan had been declared a rebelling clan, she had actually accepted the defeat. 

　　However the sudden change of events that turned her life into something else completely …she had never imagined that everything would turn out to be like this. 

　　Xi Ying didn\'t know but she was grateful to him. 

　　"He makes me feel safe…"

　　Li Rui whispered in a daze. 

　　It was true. This kind of security she had never felt in anyone\'s presence. It was, as if as long as he here nothing could go wrong. 

　　He would always be there for her. 

　　Having such a person beside her, it was such a great feeling. 

　　On the other hand, Gu Li sighed in relief.   

　　After that, there was again a long silence. Gu Li suddenly turned his head a little to look towards the tents when he felt someone looking at his back. 

　　Xi Ying standing outside the tent Li Rui and he lived with their son.   

　　He looked back at the silent Li Rui and said with a soft sigh

　　"You should sleep now."

　　Li Rui nodded her head and both of them stood up. 

　　As soon as she turned around she saw, Xi Ying walking towards her. 

　　With his one hand around her waist and other holding her hand, Xi Ying looked at Gu Li and said seriously

　　"Xi Manor\'s gates are always open to Youxio. As long as it is not something that is against this Lord\'s principles, this Lord would help Youxio in any kind of  trouble."

　　Gu Li was startled by Xi Ying\'s words. 

　　According to him, Xi Ying didn\'t like him and his people much to say such words. 

　　He looked at Li Rui and then at him as if he suddenly realizing something. 

　　So Rui was right. He indeed loved her otherwise he would not have cared enough to say these words to him. 

　　He knew what Xi Ying meant by against his principles. Youxio had not done some great works in the past few years in other people\'s eyes. 

　　"Youxio would always be there for Rui and Xi Clan."

　　Gu Li responded with the same kind of promise. 

　　Xi Ying nodded his head politely in acknowledgement. He could feel Li Rui\'s hand on his gripping softly. He looked at her and smiled gently. 

　　"Let\'s go. Xi Ling is alone inside the tent."

　　Li Rui nodded her head. 

　　After that, they finally started to walk towards the tent. Gu Li walked a step away from them. 

　　His tent was just a few steps away from theirs so they walked together towards their own tents.

　　They had just passed the old master\'s tent when Gu Li saw Rong Ting running out of the tent and stopped walking. 

　　Xi Ying and Li Rui did the same. 

　　Rong Ting\'s eyes were wide as he looked at Gu Li and suddenly a joyous smile spread on his face as he shouted in joy

　　"Grand master woke up…Master…Grand Master woke up."

　　Gu Li\'s face first went blank as if he didn\'t hear what Rong Ting said. It took him a few moments to register what Rong Ting had just said. 

　　Rong Ting\'s shout was loud and since almost everyone in the valley knew martial arts, it didn\'t take long that the shadow guards came out of their tents one by one. 

　　"What did you say, Rong Ting?"

　　Brother Wang who was wounded and had been resting inside the tent walked towards Rong Ting with his hand on his shoulder and asked Rong Ting again as if he was not sure what he had just heard. 

　　"Grand Master woke up."

　　There was suddenly a wave of joy in the valley after so many days. 

　　Li Rui smiled calmly but she was confused when she saw him standing still. 

　　She left Xi Ying\'s hand and walked towards him.

　　"Senior Brother…"

　　"Huh?"

　　Gu Li whispered in a daze when he heard her calling him.

　　"Master has woken up."

　　Gu Li swallowed as he looked at her and nodded his head stiffly at the same time blinking his eyes. 

　　After that, he walked towards the old master\'s tent in long strides.
