Chapter 1809 - Path to Escape (5)”

Perhaps it’s the dispute between Gu Yan and Bai Yan from before, but Butterfly did not like this encounter at all and even found the old man in front of herself especially dangerous.

“Gu Lao, why are you here?”

Forming a smile at the question, the old and deceptive senior waves his hand like it’s nothing special: “Elder Butterfly, there’s no need to be so wary of me, I’m merely here at the bequest of Elder Sky whom I encountered along the way. He’s changed his mind about leaving Miss Ling Yan and asked me to bring her back.”

Staring at the calm and fake face, the female elder didn’t believe that story one bit. Narrowing in her eyes: “Miss Ling Yan does not wish to leave, nor do I believe your story. Not to mention Elder Sky would never hand such a task to you!”

That’s within expectations, Gu Lao never expected his lie to work anyways. After all, if this female elder could be so easily deceived then she wouldn’t be called Second Elder of the Monarch Manor.

It’s just that…. Gu Lao’s heart would nevertheless feel like it’s being devoured by ants merely at the sight of Ling Yan being so well protected. It’s unfair and stealing the love away from his milady Gu Ya.

“Auntie Butterfly,” Di Ling Yan pursed her lips and turned to the old senior with a finger pointed out, “is he trying to kidnap me so that the bad woman can eat Ling Yan?”

Popping her eyes at the sudden and strange question, Butterfly looks down in shock: “Why would you say that?”

“That bad woman kept trying to abduct me whenever she sees Ling Yan. If she’s not trying to eat me then what other reason is there? I bet I taste very delicious.” The pipsqueak proudly cocks her chin up like being delicious was something worthy of gloating. “I will wait for Mother to come back, I won’t go with these bad people.”

Twitching in the mouth, Butterfly got to hand it to this little one. “Okay, I won’t let anyone take you away, especially not this guy.”

She promised Elder Sky that she would not let anything happen to the pipsqueak. Even if she gets hurt, she won’t go back on that vow.

Gu Lao’s complexion sank into a dark grim look: “Butterfly, it’s too dangerous to keep this little lass near the monarch, especially her mother and grandmother, they’re definitely up to no good. Do you want them to take over the Monarch Manor or something?”

Getting cold in her face with a sneer on those lips: “Watch your tongue there Gu Lao! Who do you think you or Gu Ya is? You’re nothing but individuals adopted by the Monarch manor in the past. Elder Sky already told us of Gu Ya’s origin, merely someone saved by the monarch at one point and then refused to leave no matter how we tell her to. What qualification does she and you have in dictating who gets to stay in the Monarch Manor?”

Truth was Butterfly never had a bias opinion of Gu Ya before. Even if Gu Ya did steal the credit away from the elders by eavesdropping on their plan of summoning Heavenly back to their domain, the female elder merely believed the other side was too urgent and didn’t think too much of it. However, the recent events of Gu Ya showing indiscriminate injustice towards Bai Yan told her that’s not the case. Against such a jealous person, Butterfly only had disgust and nothing less and nothing more.0=0 –

“What do you know?” Gu Lao grew furious at glared at the female, “Milady merely loves the monarch far too much, what is wrong with loving a person? I will definitely grant my miss’s wish, she will definitely become the mistress of the Monarch Manor, hahaha!”

At the end of the day, Gu Lao has fallen into the realm of madness with his face overtaken by hatred.

As long as these people don’t exist anymore then the monarch will be Milady’s!

No one can take away the happiness that belongs to her!

“Ling Yan!” Sensing the murderous intent coming off of Gu Lao, Butterfly subconsciously pulls the child behind herself. Making an alarmed face, “You think you’re my opponent?”
