Chapter 467 - 467 Brother Jiu Takes Action (2)

467 Brother Jiu Takes Action (2)

The other party was wearing a Gu Master’s robe, but it was a little tattered. He was in a sorry state and he was disheveled, his lips were cracked, and his face was covered in stubble.

Yan Jiuchao did not recognize this ugly man at first glance, but the ugly man recognized Yan Jiuchao.

Yan Jiuchao’s appearance was too unique, and it was difficult to forget him even if one wanted to. Moreover, the other party had already memorized his facial features and figure after interacting with him.

“It’s you!” The other party gritted his teeth and shouted.

Yan Jiuchao raised his eyebrows. “Do we know each other?”

The other party pushed aside the messy hair on his forehead and pointed at his face that was more than ten years older than before. “Open your eyes and see who I am!”

Yan Jiuchao: I saw it clearly. I still don’t recognize you.

The other party: “!!!”

The other party’s eyes widened. “West City! Dragon Gate Escort Agency! Gu Master Yu! Do you dare say you’ve forgotten?!”

“Oh.” In that case, Yan Jiuchao remembered. He sized up the other party strangely and asked innocently, “You’re not dead yet?”

Gu Master Yu almost choked to death. He had seen infuriating people before, but he had never seen such an infuriating person. Had he forgotten what they, these bastards, had done to him? He actually asked him so openly if he was dead or not?!

That’s right, he was a weak Gu Master who was abandoned outside Liu City in the middle of the night. He couldn’t even call for help. It was indeed lucky that he didn’t die!

What was even more cruel was that he had lost his Gu Master’s jade token. No one knew how he had rushed to the Capital all the way. He no longer just wanted to join the aristocratic families in the Capital. He wanted revenge! He wanted to avenge his previous humiliation!

“You bunch of liars. You can lie to others, but you can’t lie to me. You’re not relatives of the Helian family! You deceived General Helian! I’ll report you!”

When Yu Wan rushed out to acknowledge her relatives, Gu Master Yu was dumbfounded by this situation. However, after coming back to his senses and thinking about it, he realized that something was wrong. If they were really Grand General Helian’s relatives, why didn’t they look for Grand General Helian and acknowledge him in West City? They kept a low profile, afraid that others would see through their identities… Did this look like they had a backer?

Gu Master Yu was almost certain that they had joined forces to deceive the general.

Yan Jiuchao didn’t even lift his eyelids. “Oh, really?”

Gu Master Yu revealed a fierce expression and said, “Don’t pretend to be indifferent! Not only do I want to report you to the Helian family, but I also want to report you to Her Highness the Queen! How do you think I found this place? I’ve been to the Queen Manor! They told me that Great Gu Master Meng had gone out and came to the Biluo Villa! When I see Great Gu Master Meng later, I’ll tell him that you killed his beloved disciple!”

Yan Jiuchao frowned strangely.

Gu Master Yu sneered. “Don’t tell me you’ve even forgotten Lord Fei Luo! Ha! It’s that Gu Master who took a fancy to your maidservant! You killed him! Great Gu Master Meng won’t let you off! The Queen Manor won’t let you off!”

Yan Jiuchao said innocently, “Oh, that old man is that trash’s master.”

Gu Master Yu placed his hands on his hips and laughed. “Ha, are you afraid? It’s useless even if you’re afraid! Even if you kneel down and beg me, I won’t let you live! All of you, wait to—”

To hell with you!

Yan Jiuchao placed a hand on the back of his neck and pushed him down the steps. Gu Master Yu rolled down like a thin and deflated winter melon. His head hit a stone and he died on the spot.

This was what it meant to die before one could succeed.

It was clearly a script with ambition to take revenge, but it was forcefully played by a certain young master into a dungeon that gave first blood. Yu Wan, who had witnessed this scene not far away, silently shed tears of sympathy for a certain Gu Master. You could have threatened anyone, but you had to threaten Yan Jiuchao. Who could you blame?

Yu Wan did not think that her husband had gone overboard. She had already escaped death countless times. If she said “Oh, my God, I can’t bear to see this scene” now, wouldn’t it be as disgusting as saying “How can you eat rabbits? Rabbits are so cute”?

This person was here to kill them, but he did not have the ability and wanted to use Great Gu Master Meng and the Queen Manor. It was either him or them who died. Naturally, it was better for him to die.

Yan Jiuchao took out a white handkerchief and wiped his hand that had touched the Gu Master. He found it dirty. After wiping the handkerchief, he didn’t want it anymore. He threw it and the match to the ground and it started burning.

Yan Jiuchao returned to the waterside pavilion with a cold expression.

The third round of the battle was also approaching its end. Both sides took out a Hundred Gu King. The Gu King of the Great Gu Master Meng vaguely had the upper hand. The Little Commandery Princess was so excited that she cried out, “Bite it to death! Bite it to death!”

Just as it was about to bite Senior Yue’s Gu King to death, something unexpected happened. Great Gu Master Meng’s Gu King suddenly froze. Although it only stayed for a second, it was enough for its opponent to counterattack.

By the time the Little Commandery Princess came back to her senses, her Gu King had already been bitten to death by the other party.

The Little Commandery Princess felt as if she had been struck by lightning. “W-what’s going on? It’s clearly about to win! Did you do something?!” As she spoke, she looked coldly at Senior Yue and the others.

Jiang Hai said coldly, “Haven’t you been watching? Don’t you know if we did anything?”

“That’s right. If you’re willing to bet, you have to admit defeat. Don’t tell me you want to go back on your word?” It was rare for Qing Yan to be on par with Jiang Hai.

The Little Commandery Princess glared at Great Gu Master Meng angrily. “The Queen Manor has raised you for so long, and this is all you have? You can’t even defeat a commoner Gu Master! What’s the use of you!”

These words were really hurtful, especially in front of so many people. It could almost be considered a humiliation. Great Gu Master Meng frowned and quickly relaxed. He did not argue with the Little Commandery Princess.

Dong Xian’er clapped her hands happily. “The outcome has been decided. The two Great Gu Masters live up to their reputations. Brilliant, exciting!”

What was exciting? She had lost! “It’s all your fault!” The Little Commandery Princess glared at Gu Master Meng angrily and left without looking back!

Dong Xian’er smiled at Yu Wan. “Then, Young Master, do you want to follow me to get the lingzhi?”

“Okay.” Yu Wan smiled and followed her.

Senior Yue cupped his hands at his junior brother. “Thank you for letting me win. I really feel bad for letting you lose two Gu Kings.”

Although it was just an act for the Little Commandery Princess to see, and the two of them had not used their best skills, the Hundred Gu King was also very rare. It was impossible for anyone not to feel sorry for losing two pairs at once.

Great Gu Master Meng said seriously, “I’ve already paid back your favor. From now on, we don’t owe each other anything. When we meet again, the two of us might be true opponents.”

Senior Yue nodded with a sigh. Great Gu Master Meng turned around and left.

“Junior Brother.” Senior Yue stopped him. “You’ve angered the Little Commandery Princess. Will she make things difficult for you? At first… I didn’t know it was you.”

Great Gu Master Meng was not surprised that the other party had seen through the Little Commandery Princess’s identity. That girl was just short of writing the words “Commandery Princess” on her face. Only a fool could not tell.

He turned around and said, “The person I’m loyal to is the Queen. What happened today was just a farce by the Little Commandery Princess. Her Highness won’t vent her anger on me. Senior Brother, take care.”

Senior Yue cupped his hands. “Take care, Junior Brother.”

“Senior Yue, thank you.” Qing Yan walked forward and thanked him solemnly.

Senior Yue said politely, “It’s nothing. It’s what I should do. My junior brother is a Great Gu Master of the Queen Manor. I won’t say anything about his status, but his Gu techniques aren’t made up out of thin air. In the future, unless you have no other choice, don’t be his enemy.”

Qing Yan nodded. Although he was not a Gu Master, he could more or less see some tricks after interacting with Ah Wei for a long time. That Great Gu Master Meng was probably not inferior to Ah Wei. He indeed did not want them to target him one day.

When they obtained the two herbs and quickly returned to the clan, everything here would have nothing to do with them.

On the other hand, Yu Wan followed Dong Xian’er to a nearby elegant courtyard.

Previously, her mind was filled with competition and she did not have the time to admire the scenery of the villa. Now that she walked along the way, she realized that this place was stacked with stones and water, and the scenery was beautiful. The pleasant fragrance of flowers floated in the air, making her feel indescribably relaxed and happy.

“Young Master, have you heard that an ominous person once lived here?” Dong Xian’er suddenly spoke.

Yu Wan, who was enjoying nature, was interrupted and looked at her reluctantly. “Huh? Ah, Miss Dong is talking about this. Why? Did Miss Dong believe in this nonsense?”

“Do you believe it, Young Master?” Dong Xian’er asked with a smile.

Yu Wan shook her head. “No.”

A trace of admiration flashed across Dong Xian’er’s eyes. “As expected of someone I, Dong Xian’er, have taken a fancy to.”

Yu Wan rubbed her nose resentfully. Don’t spout nonsense. If word gets back to my husband, it will be another gentle torture.

This topic was stopped halfway by Yu Wan’s boring “no”. Dong Xian’er did not continue. She led Yu Wan around the corridor and entered an elegant and unique room. “The lingzhi is inside.”

Yu Wan was finally able to obtain the medicinal primer. She was a little excited.

Dong Xian’er had her back facing Yu Wan. She bent down and opened a large box. Just from her slow motion of bending her waist, Yu Wan had every reason to believe that she was seducing her.

“Ahem!” Yu Wan fanned herself with the fan in her hand.

“Boring.” Dong Xian’er was angry. She carried a small jewelry box to Yu Wan. “Here, the red lingzhi is inside. Open it yourself.”

Yu Wan looked at her. “There won’t be a mechanism in this box, right?”

Dong Xian’er rolled her eyes at her and held the box with one hand. She opened it in front of her and asked angrily, “Is there a mechanism?”

Yu Wan smiled awkwardly and cupped her hands. “I’ve underestimated you. I’ll apologize to Miss Dong here.”

“Stupid man!” Dong Xian’er rolled her eyes and stuffed the box into Yu Wan’s hand.

Yu Wan never dreamed that an unbelievable scene would happen. The beads embedded outside the box all lit up!

Yu Wan’s mind went blank for a moment before she blurted out, “Gu bead!”
