Chapter 15: Brothers Turn Against Each Other, She Takes Her Husband to a Party!
Eldest brother, Gu Jingyu?
Hehe, is he finally coming?
Gu Jiancheng sneered inwardly.
My elder brother should have known that he arrived at the Tai Xuan Sect yesterday, but he only came today?
At that moment, on the desolate mountain path, Gu Jingyu arrived with the wind, as sharp and fierce as a sword drawn from its sheath.
The terrifying aura frightened the chubby boy, who quickly hid behind Gu Jiancheng.
Gu Jingyu stopped thirty feet away from the two of them.
His cold gaze swept over the dilapidated hut, his eyes filled with disdain.
Finally, his gaze settled on Gu Jiancheng.
"Hehe, is the eldest brother finally giving up on his act?" Gu Jiancheng sneered.
From a young age, Gu Jingyu was praised by everyone for his politeness and humility. Almost all the good things about him were praised, as if he were a flawless piece of jade.
But only Gu Jiancheng knew that if his eldest brother were on Earth, he would probably win a Chinese Oscar.
Now, he has finally shed all pretense.
hum!
But Gu Jingyu did not respond. Instead, his shoulders trembled, and his cultivation at the peak of the late Foundation Establishment stage instantly burst forth from his body.
"Violent!"
A large, phantom owl covered in blue and gold feathers also materialized above his head.
The oppressive aura stirred up a storm, raising a cloud of dust that made Gu Jiancheng's white robes flutter wildly.
"Can you see clearly?"
Gu Jingyu raised his head, his bright eyes looking down at Gu Jiancheng, his tone cold, as if he were facing a stranger.
"What?" Gu Jiancheng raised an eyebrow.
"Superior spiritual talent, peak Foundation Establishment cultivation."
Gu Jingyu withdrew his aura, his eyes filled with disdain, "I'm just telling you what a true prodigy is!"
Gu Jiancheng: "???"
My family members were really laughing.
What kind of bullshit talent and cultivation level is that, to call him a chosen one of heaven?
The world's chosen ones are worthless, just like free-range chickens.
"And then?" Gu Jiancheng flicked his sleeve, brushing the dust off his clothes, and raised an eyebrow.
It remained as serene and composed as a gentle breeze caressing the willows.
"You do not deserve."
Seeing that his sixth brother was still in the same state, Gu Jingyu couldn't help but grit his teeth.
"You are not worthy of Father Emperor's continued favor!"
You don't deserve everything you have now!
"You are not worthy to marry Yunshuiyao!"
"Everything you have should have been mine, including Yunshuiyao!"
By the end, Gu Jingyu was practically screaming.
Along the way, he grew angrier and angrier, and all the resentment that had been building up in his heart exploded in an instant!
"Are you alright?" Gu Jiancheng was utterly speechless.
What utter nonsense is this?
He was too lazy to pay attention to Gu Jingyu, so he turned around and wanted Fatty to see the guest out.
"Gu Jiancheng, you don't know this, do you? In order for you to enter the Tai Xuan Sect, your father knelt outside the mountain gate for three days and three nights!"
"What did you say?!" Gu Jiancheng suddenly turned around, his pupils slightly trembling.
My father knelt outside the Tai Xuanzong Temple for three days and three nights?
He was unaware of this matter.
But then he suddenly remembered that his father had indeed left the palace for a period of time, saying he was going to Tai Xuan Sect to visit Gu Jingyu. Could it have been that time?
In an instant, Gu Jiancheng's large hand, hidden in his sleeve, suddenly clenched tightly.
Fatherly love is silent.
His father's love for him was never publicized, but this was the first time Gu Jiancheng had been so moved.
He knelt for three days and three nights.
In any case, my father was the ruler of a dynasty, and he never knelt before anyone.
And all of this is because of myself!
"It's all because of you, because of you, you utterly worthless piece of trash!"
"You shouldn't have come to the Tai Xuan Sect. Your father secured this qualification for you, but you can only become a laughingstock in this ruined peak!"
"You will only bring shame to the Qin royal family."
"If you have any self-awareness, you should leave Yunshuiyao, get out of Taixuan, and fend for yourself!"
Gu Jingyu was still roaring.
"Finished?"
Gu Jiancheng raised his eyes, his gaze turning cold and sharp.
"You're not leaving, are you?" Gu Jingyu pressed.
But Gu Jiancheng waved his hand and returned to his recliner, saying, "Get out of Xiaoyao Peak while I still have feelings for you."
If it weren't for his father, the emperor, the first thing he would have done upon entering Tai Xuan would have been to kill Gu Jingyu.
"Hahahaha!"
But Gu Jingyu burst into wild laughter and said angrily, "I want to see how long you can fool Yun Shuiyao with your sweet words!"
"In one month, during the Great Examination of Tai Xuan, you will be in a state where you wish you were dead!"
"And everything of the Great Qian royal family belongs to me."
"Humph!"
Having said that, Gu Jingyu snorted coldly, raised his sleeves, and headed down the mountain.
"Senior Brother, this Senior Brother Gu is so unfamiliar. He's never been like this before," Fatty muttered after Gu Jingyu left.
That really scared him.
"Remember, this is the real him." Gu Jiancheng sneered.
He never took Gu Jingyu seriously, just as he never dreamed of the throne.
"What will we do a month from now? We've been targeted by Jian Yunfeng." Fatty said with a bitter face and a dejected look.
"What is Sword Cloud Peak anyway?"
Gu Jiancheng sneered, raised his hand suddenly, and a wisp of scorching, invisible sword energy burst forth from his fingertips.
boom!
The sword energy struck Listening Rain Lake, instantly splitting the flowing water, causing the lake surface to explode, and a large amount of water vapor was lifted into the sky before falling back down.
Fatty stared in astonishment at the ten-foot-long sword mark that had split the lake's surface and the enormous waves that had spread out.
Is this some kind of divine power from immortals?!
Senior Brother is also a sword cultivator!
"Huh? It's raining?"
Li Piaomiao, who had been napping on the boat, wiped the moisture from her face and looked bewildered.
……
As night fell, Yunshuiyao arrived as promised.
They still brought wine and meat, and the meal was even more lavish than yesterday.
Fatty wasn't stupid; he silently took a small portion of the food and drinks and left.
"My lady, when shall we begin?" Gu Jiancheng asked, looking at Yun Shuiyao's cold and beautiful face.
"You eat first." Yun Shuiyao opened her mouth, but in the end, she inexplicably uttered those three words.
This made it somewhat difficult for her to talk about...
"okay!"
Gu Jiancheng responded and quickly finished his work. Then, Yun Shuiyao sat down on the recliner in perfect unison, and Gu Jiancheng also came up behind her and began to touch... to massage her.
Neither of them spoke throughout the entire process.
"By the way, my wife, how about I tell you a story?"
Gu Jiancheng's voice suddenly rang out behind Yun Shuiyao's ear.
Yun Shuiyao, her eyes slightly narrowed, nodded slightly: "Speak."
She wanted to refuse, but as soon as Gu Jiancheng's large hands began to massage, her consciousness became like a boat without oars, letting it steer at will.
"Long, long ago, there was a prodigy from a family named Shi Ritian. He possessed a supreme bone and was exceptionally talented, but later, his supreme bone was forcibly taken away by his elder brother..."
Gu Jiancheng spoke gently, recounting his story in a slow and detailed manner.
Yunshuiyao was not interested in worldly stories at first, but gradually she became fascinated by them, and even felt her heart flutter because of Shi Ritian's experiences in the story.
Time passed quickly, and an hour later, Gu Jiancheng's voice and large hand stopped simultaneously.
"Is it over?" Yun Shuiyao opened her beautiful eyes.
"Is it over?" Gu Jiancheng shrugged. "I'm exhausted."
"Let me tell you a story." Yun Shuiyao frowned. Shi Ritian's story was at a crucial point, but Gu Jiancheng stopped talking.
Isn't this just teasing people?
"My wife, this is a long story. Don't be greedy for stories. I'll tell you slowly in the future." Gu Jiancheng patted her shoulder.
"Hmph, we'll continue tomorrow!"
Yun Shuiyao glared at Gu Jiancheng, then put on her robe and left, clearly displeased.
"Wow, the story of the red-haired monster is really amazing; even the Empress is captivated by it!"
"However, another 120 strategy points are in hand. It was too easy, really too easy!"
Gu Jiancheng pursed his lips and went back to the thatched hut.
In the days that followed, Yunshuiyao would come to Xiaoyao Peak, a place that had previously been rarely visited by people.
Yun Shuiyao also struggled with the idea that she should maintain her aloofness as an empress.
But Gu Jiancheng's massage techniques, along with his captivating story, make it impossible to resist!
After each massage by Gu Jiancheng, her cultivation speed would increase several times.
Moreover, compared to Xuan Ning Peak, where she was greeted and befriended by senior members of the Tai Xuan Sect and inner disciples from other peaks every day, she preferred to go to Xiao Yao Peak for a moment of peace and quiet.
The desolate Xiaoyao Peak has also become a popular tourist attraction for the Taixuan Sect.
Every night, many disciples, both inner and outer, wait either on the hills outside Xiaoyao Peak or on the cliffs of the inner sect.
They didn't want to see how Gu Jiancheng would harm Yun Shuiyao; instead, they hoped that one day Yun Shuiyao would disappear from the scene altogether.
Otherwise, they won't eat or sleep well.
What gradually drove them to despair was that Yunshuiyao not only came every day, but also came earlier each day!
This was utterly devastating, causing many outer disciples to wake up in their sleep, beating their chests and stamping their feet in frustration.
until the seventh day.
Su Wanzhi arrived at Jingyou Pavilion and saw Yun Shuiyao looking at the recipes from Xuan Ning Peak instead of cultivating, so she quickly went up to her.
"Senior sister, are you free today?"
"No," Yun Shuiyao replied casually, her pen hovering over the menu as she made various selections.
"This time, we really need your help."
"The Five Peaks and Ten Beauties of the Inner Sect will hold a small gathering at Hundred Flowers Peak," Su Wanzhi pleaded, clinging to Yun Shuiyao's arm.
These days, Su Wan'er and Yun Shuiyao are the only ones who get close.
The two were hailed as the Twin Beauties of Xuan Ning and were extremely famous.
Su Wanzhi saw that she was playful and didn't seem to be deep in thought, so she didn't give her the cold shoulder.
“Your talent is enough to represent Xuan Ning, and you also know that I don’t like crowds.” Yun Shuiyao still showed little interest.
"But none of our Xuan Ning members are among the Ten Outstanding Peaks. This makes Master lose face in front of the other peak masters. Senior Sister is now the face of Xuan Ning. You must go!"
Seeing this, Su Wanzhi couldn't help but burst into tears, "Senior sister, I've never asked you for anything before, just this once!"
"Hey……"
Unable to resist the persistent questioning, Yun Shuiyao put down her pen and said, "Just this once."
"I knew it, my senior sister is the best to me!" Su Wanzhi was finally satisfied.
“However, I can go, but I have to bring someone with me,” Keyun Shuiyao added.
"Bring people? Who?"
Su Wan was taken aback, then looked at the menu on the table and raised her eyebrows, "You're not going to bring Gu Jiancheng along, are you?"
"No?" Yunshuiyao retorted.
"Senior sister, apart from the Ten Outstanding Talents of Tai Xuan, everyone else at this gathering is a top performer in the *** talent show. Gu Jiancheng is just an outer disciple..." Su Wanzhi muttered.
"So what? If it doesn't work out, I won't go," Yun Shuiyao said coldly.
"Alright, alright, take him with you!" Seeing that Yun Shuiyao was about to get angry, Su Wanzhi had no choice but to agree.
"But, Senior Sister, you wouldn't really have fallen in love with Gu Jiancheng, would you?" Su Wanzhi thought for a moment and then said, "He's the best at manipulating girls, so you mustn't be fooled by him."
"You know him very well?" Yun Shuiyao asked back, her eyes as cold as a valley.
"I...I heard about it," Su Wanzhi said softly, stunned.
"I won't get to know him from what other people say."
Yunshuiyao put away the recipe and got up.
She wasn't quite sure why she had to bring Gu Jiancheng along.
Perhaps, even if it's just a shield, he's probably very good at social gatherings and networking...
At Xiaoyao Peak, the sun had just set, and the evening glow was as red as blood.
Gu Jiancheng raised his hand on the recliner, and an invisible sword aura condensed at his fingertips. Although it was only an inch long, the sword aura instantly turned into a blazing flame, as if it would melt the void.
Its domineering sharpness tore through space, producing a series of explosive sounds.
"Sword technique, hehe, it's not difficult at all. It's time to try out the Hundred Refinement Tower."
Gu Jiancheng extinguished the small sword energy at his fingertips, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Now that his cultivation has reached the mid-stage of the Core Formation Realm, and with his understanding of sword intent, he is absolutely confident that he can pass the nine levels of the Hundred Refinement Tower!
But the next moment, he moved his mind slightly and immediately got up to look at the path leading to the peak, and was surprised to see Yun Shuiyao flying down.
The sun had just set when Yunshuiyao arrived?
Isn't this a bit too exaggerated?
