Yet, there was no denying that Gu Qingluan had indeed entered.
Was their Gu family deceived by that Formation Master?
Wang Shi cursed in her heart, her face a mixture of pale and green. “You… What are you doing barging in? Our Gu family has no connection with you.”
“Ha, no connection? Madam bestowed upon me a lavish gift. If 1 were to not respond in kind, wouldn’t it appear as if I lacked decorum? Such rumors wouldn’t bode well.” Gu Qingluan furrowed her brows, a subtle smile playing in her eyes.
Looking at her appearance, Wang Shi felt a chill all over.
“You, don’t come any closer! I’m telling you! If you dare to harm me, everyone in the capital will know of your actions!”
“And what if they know?” Gu Qingluan’s cold smile deepened. “I intend for them to widen their gaze and witness that those who dare to challenge Gu Qingluan won’t enjoy a favorable fate!”
With her words spoken, her figure flickered, and she appeared right in front of Wang Shi.
“All! Help!” Wang Shi was terrified, pushing the maid next to her towards Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan casually waved her hand, and the maid screamed as she flew out, crashing into a nearby wall.
Without even sparing a glance, Gu Qingluan pursued Wang Shi.
“Stop!”
Just as Gu Qingluan was about to grab Wang Shi, a stern shout rang out.
At the same time, a powerful palm wind surged toward Gu Qingluan.
She had to dodge.
“Old Master, you’ve finally appeared!” Wang Shi saw Gu Zhicheng’s imposing arrival and burst into tears of joy!
She quickly hid behind Gu Zhicheng.
Gu Zhicheng glared at Gu Qingluan. “Gu Qingluan, what do you intend to do? Are you trying to kill your mother?”
“Shut up! My mother died a long time ago! She…” Gu Qingluan glanced at Wang Shi and sneered, “She’s nothing more than a wicked woman with malicious intentions!”
Gu Zhicheng’s brows knitted. “Regardless of whether she’s your biological mother or not, she’s still your legal mother! Gu Qingluan, don’t allow your newfound confidence to lead you into reckless actions!”
“And if I want to?”
Gu Qingluan’s words left Gu Zhicheng speechless, his anger preventing him from responding.
“Do you don’t want me to destroy the Gu family? It’s best if you step aside!” Gu Qingluan stared at Gu Zhicheng, her voice icy.
Gu Zhicheng widened his eyes and exclaimed, “You dare!”
“Why don’t you see if I do or not!”
Gu Qingluan swept her hand, sending a sharp palm wind towards Steward Wang and a few others.
They screamed in agony as they were sent flying.
Bang!
Several loud crashes, blood splattered on the ground.
Seeing Gu Qingluan’s attack, Gu Zhicheng’s pupils contracted in shock.
In just a few days, her cultivation had improved once again!
Gu Zhicheng could hardly believe it.
Had she practiced some sinister technique?
How could her cultivation rise so quickly!
Wang Shi, trembling, pleaded, “Old Master, you must save me! Xue’er can’t lose her mother…”
Being reminded by Wang Shi, Gu Zhicheng’s hesitation faded instantly as he thought of his beloved daughter.
If Xue’er found out that he let her mother die without saving her, she would surely hate him.
He couldn’t use this eldest daughter anymore; he had to rely on Xue’er at the Qiankun Academy. He must not hurt her feelings.
Gu Zhicheng’s expression turned cold as he looked at Gu Qingluan. “Qingluan, regardless of whatever wrongs Wang Shi has committed, death is not warranted. You are indeed formidable, but Xue’er is no less capable than you. Don’t ruin your future over a moment’s anger.”
He was using Gu Lingxue to threaten Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan chuckled.
Was she afraid of offending Gu Lingxue?
Even if Gu Lingxue didn’t come looking for trouble, she would seek revenge on her.
She wished she could anger Gu Lingxue to death.
However, there was one thing Gu Zhicheng got wrong.
“Who said I wanted to kill Wang Shi?”
Both Gu Zhicheng and Wang Shi were stunned.
Didn’t she come in with the appearance of a grim reaper to kill?
