Chapter 157 Chapter 157 Capricious
Gu Wenren was quite the eye candy to every male in the scene.
Although she was only standing there in a conservative azure dress but the majesty and awe that she brought to everyone was indeed so palpable in the air.
This was especially true to all those who knew her for what she was.
'The First Legacy Disciple, Gu Wenren!'
'Why is she here?' The Feng brothers had these respective thoughts in mind but they were not foolish to ignore the presence of someone of Gu Wenren's identity.
They knew for a fact that this beautiful woman was already at the unfathomable cultivation of the Aspirant Realm. To how far she was in that stage, nobody knew for a fact.
The Demonic Sword Sect Elders only determined that to offend such an expert was equivalent to certain death for all of them.
"Greetings, Senior Gu Wenren!" Three men led the group and it did not take long for the rest of the servants and slaves in the halls to mimic the inviolable intention of their leaders.
These three were of course Elders Feng Lin, Feng Ren and Chang Tu. They bowed low while the servant slaves kneeled in place.
Perhaps the only group that remained unfazed through it all was Clark and his select picks of companions.
If Tang Xinyue and Ze Min were here then maybe they would have no choice but fawn in respect over the enigmatic Gu Wenren but alas, our bored gamer's invitation for them to witness his daily training was heartlessly ignored by the two.
Not that it mattered for our good gamer also. If this had happened before his sudden enlightenment when he achieved the True Immortal Realm then he would have done stupid and immature things.
It was fortunate that the experience had taught him many things about life in general. The least of which was the priceless value of patience.
"What do you say, Young Master Clark? Did you not say that you want me to become one of your women? Why do you suddenly hesitate now? I not enough to satisfy what you want in a wife?" Gu Wenren smiled and there was a playful mask on her innocent face.
She paid no attention whatsoever to the meek heads in her front as her eyes were only focused towards one particular person in the room.
She was indeed worthy of someone who had lived for more than one hundred twenty years already because the long experience in life had taught her many things.
One of those was of course on how to properly conceal the real intentions of her heart. But how could a mere mortal hide their true selves from the sharp eyes of our wise protagonist
'Most people in this xianxia world are really obsessed with the continued existence of their sect and influence. Hmmm...
The wounded Elder forced himself to focus on what was happening in his surroundings but aside from the immovable stance of his brother Feng Lin nearby, all Feng Ren could sense was the dull bombing of something hard and relentless somewhere in these chambers.
"Look for yourself, Feng Ren." Elder Feng Lin muttered softly but his eyes remained seated upon a view in the distance.
'Did Young Master Clark get punished and was now being beaten into an obedient boy by Senior Gu Wenren?'
Elder Feng Ren thought within. He took several moments to gather himself and true to his will, the knocked out old man slowly but surely stood up from his fall.
And what captivated his eyes was indeed a picture that he was absolutely not expecting to see.
There was chaos in the Training Hall but what was surprising were the barely discernible black dots that would vanish time and time again in a speed that was completely inconceivable for him and to every witness down below.
'How could this be?!' Elder Feng Ren's jaw was literally hanging from his mouth right now.

"You are fast, Young Master Clark. But you would be dreaming if you were to believe that this much speed is enough to catch me." A gentle voice rang in the ears of our bored gamer.
He knew that this message was only intended for him and thus everyone in the audience could not have judged the conversation between one cat and one mouse in their midst.
The blurred erratic lines that marked their passage and the further wreckage that they have inflicted unto the Training Hall kept on escalating as time went by.
This did not concern both Clark and Gu Wenren of course. For them, these were just material things that could easily be replaced with adequate manpower and money.
What they were more interested in was how to cleverly measure one another's strength and abilities without fully revealing the hidden card on their sleeves.
"You said that you would become my woman, Gu Wenren! Why are you running away from me then?" Clark asked as he acted like a sex crazed fool that he was not.
He only did this to demotivate this woman's selfish desires to sell herself for personal gain. Alas, Gu Wenren has humored him in full instead.
"What is given unto you with such ease and comfort will not be treasured with a grateful heart, Young Master Clark. Train well.
If and when the time comes that you could already touch the hem of my dress, that shall be the day that I will accept you as my man."
Gu Wenren said her piece and in the next breath, our bored gamer has found himself void of his nimble dance partner.
What took her place was only a slowly descending item unto the hands of our boy protagonist.
"First she wanted to become my woman and I agreed. But the moment i wanted to touch her, she would go on and run away from me like i'm a plague or something."
Our bored gamer shook his head at this time.
"Women are really fickle creatures." Clark sighed as he palmed the interspatial ring firmly in his grasp.
