Trantor: Dragon Boat Trantion Editor: Dragon Boat Trantion
Gu Qingluan thought this statement was spot on.
However, for the sake of the other person and the well-intentioned bystanders around, she definitely wouldnt admit to it.
No, not at all. With my abilities, which man could force me?
The other person seemed to suddenly remember her capabilities and disyed an expression of enlightenment. Oh, right, I almost forgot, the Guardian Princess is so formidable; who could ever pressure you? It seems I misunderstood.
He breathed a sigh of relief, his face filled with embarrassment.
The onlookers around them wore nearly identical expressions.
Gu Qingluan thought that the matter would be settled here, but what happened next almost made her lose herposure.
Could it be, young sir, that you are the confidant of the Guardian Princess?
Gu Qingluan quickly nced at Feng Tian.
Feng Tian stared at the person expressionlessly, as if saying, Are you asking for trouble?
No, no! Gu Qingluan denied hurriedly.
She felt that this person was daring and constantly provoking on the brink of death. Didnt he realize that he had almost met his end twice already?
But the person continued, Indeed, for a remarkabledy like the Guardian Princess, a man with such average looks is unworthy to be your confidant.
Gu Qingluan could feel that Feng Tian was about to lose his temper. His hand that held hers couldnt be retrieved, so she could only use her finger to gently poke his palm and transmit her voice, Stay calm, stay calm. Hes just a bystander, unrted to us. You are a noble member of the Feng n and the Royal Prince of the Holy Heaven Dynasty; theres no need to stoop to his level. The sensation of her finger brushing against his palm felt as light as a feather, faintly ticklish and tantalizing. Feng Tians anger was instantly pacified.
However, he still wore a cold expression as he fixed his gaze on the bystander as if he were looking at a dead man.
Gu Qingluan hurriedly exined, Its not what youre thinking! I never intended to find a confidant.
After saying this, she pulled Feng Tian away.
Ah, so this man is
The voice of the bystander was left behind.
Gu Qingluan pulled Feng Tian into the crowd ahead, making sure that the person didnt follow them, and then heaved a sigh of relief.
Today was truly an unlucky day. Calming down a man was more tiring than getting into a fight.
Then, she caught sight of the man standing by her side and immediately became alert.
became alert.
Um dont you have other things to attend to?
Are you trying to chase me away?
His tone carried a hint of danger.
Alright, its better not to provoke him for now.
A faint smile tugged at the corner of Gu Qingluans mouth. No, what i meant is, if youre not busy, would you like toe back to the Jun Residence with me? Ive arranged a feast there, and Id like you to stay and have dinner with us tonight.
Feng Tiansplexion cleared slightly, and he nodded with restraint. Sure.
Gu Qingluan breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Then, lets go?
Afraid that something might go wrong again, Gu Qingluan didnt pay much attention to the fact that her hand was still held by Feng Tian. She walked briskly towards the Jun Residence.
The sooner they returned, the sooner she could shake off this man.
Feng Tian was unaware of her thoughts. When he saw that she didnt bring up the matter of letting go of his hand again, the corner of his mouth curled imperceptibly.
The news of Gu Zhichengs cultivation being crippled quickly spread among the major powers.
Everyone was shocked and initially thought that it might be a mistake from their informants. They inquired repeatedly, only to confirm that the news was indeed true.
Initially, many suspected that Gu Hongkang might have gone mad to cripple his own sons cultivation. After all, Gu Zhicheng was a Saint!
But it was evident that Gu Hongkang had not lost his sanity.bender
The old man was astute and had certainly weighed the pros and cons of his actions.
Those who knew the inside story had an elevated level of respect and awe for Gu Qingluan.
Previously, regardless of all her aplishments and the storms she had caused, the prominent families in Tianjing City considered her to be talented and powerful. Theybeled her as impressive but approachable.
However, Gu Zhichengs fate sent a clear message to them.
Thebels affixed to Gu Qingluan shifted to Cannot be provoked and best ally, among others.
Cannot be provoked is the top priority; nobody should provoke Gu Qingluan.
Even Gu Zhicheng had his cultivation disabled. Provoking her would be courting death, wouldnt it?
And best ally was a recognition of Gu Qingluans immense value.
A figure as formidable as her, if one could establish a friendship, their ancestors would turn in their graves withughter.
At this moment, envy began to swell among many, and they couldnt help but admire the Tang family.
Back when the Thirddy of the Tang family had befriended Gu Qingluan, some had mocked the Tang family for not managing their daughter properly, allowing her to befriend Gu Qingluan at the cost of offending the Gu family.
Now, they regretted their words and wished they could turn back time to befriend Gu Qingluan along with the Third Lady of the Tang family.
Unfortunately, there was no remedy for regrets in life. Given the situation at that time and theirck of fortunepared to the Tang family, they seized the chance to befriend her before she departed Tianjing and strived to forge a strong connection with her.
Opportunities favor the prepared.
It was better to bete than to do nothing.
Those with younger generations in their families received advice from their elders to interact with Gu Qingluan when the chance arose, striving to be her friends.
As a result, invitations to the Jun Residence poured in like a flurry of snowkes..
