But!
Now I'm here!
Gu Yan looked at the demon claws in his hand and softly said: "Mimic."
In the next second.
As if understanding Gu Yan's intention, the three demon claws rumbled!
They instantly merged together and wrapped around Gu Yan's finger, transforming into a black ring.
Of course.
Crack! Squelch!
The inside of the ring was lined with blood-sucking spikes, firmly attaching to Gu Yan's finger.
Well, demon claws need nutrition too!
After completing this, Gu Yan glanced at the dazed Tian Fang. This person was an important tool for Chen Yingyin to quickly enter the Martial Arts Department, so he still had some use.
He turned to Old Gao, who was quite bewildered by what he had just witnessed: "Let's go, Old Gao. I'll explain everything in the car."
"Oh... okay..."
Old Gao nodded, watching Gu Yan's retreating figure.
His expression was complex.
He really understood the young master less and less. Was this current version of the young master another manifestation of split personality?
No, no, no, regardless...
Old Gao took a light breath and followed behind Gu Yan.
Looking at his back, Old Gao couldn't help but recall their first meeting.
[Hey, old man, are you the bodyguard dad found for me? You look so weak!]
.....
[Old man, are you okay? Oh, I know! Dad told me about your wife's situation. Here, take this - it's all my pocket money, use it.]
...
[Old Gao, aren't I your family too? If you keep being so depressed, this young master might have to find a new bodyguard!]
Young master truly is a gentle person.
Old Gao smiled slightly, watching Gu Yan's back. No matter what...
I will always protect you, young master.
Now only Tian Fang remained in the dungeon.
"My... my claws..."
They were his best companions since childhood, but now...
They had been taken by someone else.
"No!!"
Tian Fang was so angry that he fainted.
.......
.......
Back in the car.
Old Gao was shocked. Although he had sensed it earlier, when he actually heard it from the young master's own mouth.
He was still amazed: "Young master, you've reached Innate realm?"
Heavens, this defied logic.
Since the young master's birth, the Gu family had determined this child had no talent for martial arts.
Rather than letting him experience the disappointment of the martial arts world, they decided not to tell him and let him live peacefully as an ordinary person.
At that time, everyone determined he could at best become a third-rate martial artist.
But now, he had reached Innate realm overnight? What exactly had happened??
"Yes, I'm quite puzzled too. Suddenly reached Innate realm."
Gu Yan pretended to think, then responded with a shocked expression: "Could it be! This is the power of love!"
What nonsense about the power of love!
Old Gao took a deep breath. Though he couldn't understand the young master's talk about the power of love.
But... it was good that the young master could cultivate now, at least his personal safety would be better guaranteed.
With this in mind, he asked: "Then... young master, where are we going next?"
Where to go....
Gu Yan thought for a moment, quickly reviewing the thoughts in his mind.
First was Shen Wan'er. After observing at the banquet, he noticed her interactions with Xiao Lin had increased, similar to the original story, but this side needed too much time, so he could only wait.
Next was Wang Yulan, she was still hospitalized, and the plot hadn't reached her part yet, so no need to worry about her for now.
Then Chen Yingyin, she knew about the Martial Arts Department and should be joining soon. He would help boost her performance later, so no need to worry for now.
Then Yan Qingqing, this masochistic woman was the easiest to deal with, but he couldn't always take the initiative with her, so no need to worry for now.
Finally, the Bai family's young miss and Leng Ling'er's best friend, Bai Qionglan. She still had half of the Dragon King Jade Pendant that he needed, but... it wasn't time yet. He still needed to wait for a plot point, so no need to worry about that either.
Calculating this way, Gu Yan realized he had already encountered five women from Xiao Lin's harem in the original story.
And these five currently had no feelings for Xiao Lin.
Very good, this was the right development. As long as these harem members didn't provide Xiao Lin with too much help, then later on, he and Qingqiu would be safer.
No wait! Just how many women were in Xiao Lin's harem?! This guy must have incredibly high resistance to pure love!
While complaining internally, Gu Yan pondered. He had actually considered whether to become brothers with Xiao Lin, who had just come down from the mountain.
But... for some reason, whenever this thought occurred, he felt extremely disgusted.
He didn't know why at first, but after Mei Xue's appearance last night, he seemed to understand some things, and realized why he detested Xiao Lin.
In the original story, the author never explicitly stated which forces were involved in the massacre of the Leng Family years ago.
But now..... Gu Yan's eyes flickered with a cold light.
Combining the original story and Leng Qingqiu's current actions, it wasn't hard to reach a conclusion.
That is, every force that Leng Qingqiu controlled was actually... one of the forces involved in the Leng Family massacre.
Why control the King of Hell Palace? Because they participated in the massacre.
Why target the protagonist? Because the Dragon King Palace also participated in the massacre, and Xiao Lin killed Leng Ling'er in the original story.
Why target those harem members who hadn't met protagonist Xiao Lin yet? Because their family forces had also participated in the siege of the Leng Family.
Everything Leng Qingqiu did actually revolved around one point.
That is..... revenge.
For revenge, she could abandon all her humanity; for revenge, she could sacrifice everything.
Understanding all this, Gu Yan took a deep breath.
Since everyone was Qingqiu's enemy, then... he should also firmly walk this path he had chosen.
Moreover..... after discovering that the Pure Love Cultivation Technique could provide him with such power.
Gu Yan's thoughts had changed. It no longer mattered whether Leng Qingqiu would turn dark like in the original story.
It no longer mattered whether Leng Qingqiu would become stronger, this was fine.
Gu Yan didn't want Leng Qingqiu to become that cold-blooded, heartless person from the original story again.
Qingqiu must be suffering, because his intervention had made it difficult for her to judge things normally.
Just like this time with the King of Hell Palace.
But it doesn't matter anymore.......
Gu Yan closed his eyes to relieve some pressure, then said: "Let's go to grandmother's."
"Yes, young master."
As the car started moving, Gu Yan slowly opened his eyes.
His gaze held unprecedented determination and coldness.
In this life, Leng Qingqiu's enemies would be my enemies too.
Hum! Gu Yan clutched half of the jade pendant in his palm.
Let me make use of you..... Dragon King Palace.
fe full of thrilling battles, ultimately sacrificing himself to protect his homeland and its people. Unexpectedly, he was reborn into his youth, where he encountered the campus ice queen, Ye Miyue, now working as a masseuse at his family's martial arts school. "How long have you been doing this?" "I-it's my first time..." the campus belle murmured, her head bowed. Wang Xian remembered clearly that back then, although Ye Miyue had not yet awakened her martial arts talent, her outstanding academic performance, breathtaking beauty, and icy demeanor had made her the moon goddess of every boy in school. He was no exception. In his previous life, they had no connection, never imagining they would meet under such circumstances. Sadly, today the city was attacked by an S-class beast, the 'Wind King Falcon,' destroying nearly half of the city streets. Ye Miyue had died on her way home during this disaster. Now, given a second chance, facing the campus goddess of his youth, Wang Xian resolutely decided to extend her session! And so. "My hands are tired..." the blushing campus belle whispered, relieved. Wang Xian pointed to her slender calves and said, "Who said only hands can massage? There are feet too!" "Extend the session, continue!"
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years." "When you were at your peak I yielded, now in your old age I shall trample on you." - Chen Xia
't think I'm that capable, I'm just trying my best to stay alive. I've been kind all my life, never did anything bad, yet worldly suffering spared me not one bit. The human world is a nice place, but I won't come back in my next life. A kind young man, who wanted to just get by singing, but through repeated deceits and betrayals, has gone down an irredeemable path.
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
