Chapter 1020: Chapter 2967: A Chance Encounter for Mutual Benefit
“Rest assured, you may not have enough leverage to threaten your families, but I have enough! I forced Gu Tianyao to jump off a cliff and escape. But your Clan Leader may not be willing to jump off a cliff, right?” Gu Changsheng, as if knowing what that young guide was thinking, chuckled softly and explained quite generously...
How unkind it would be to let people return all the way with tears in their eyes!
Gu Changsheng thought, she truly is a kind person!
However, the young man was shocked upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s words, his eyes widening with disbelief...
Godfather!
What a Ghost!
How did this beautiful woman know what he was thinking?
Even though he thought so, the young man lacked the courage to ask too much, because he knew very well, if Gu Changsheng spoke to him a couple of sentences, that was to alleviate boredom. More than that, he wouldn’t know his place being a prisoner...
The journey from Sa Peak Summit back to the Mo Family was quite a distance, but along the way, Gu Changsheng was in a good mood, leading Baby and Beibei to admire the scenery, delaying quite a bit of time...
The young man and those prisoners dared not open their mouths to persuade Gu Changsheng!
They could only endure like a Ninja...
By the time Gu Changsheng’s group returned to the Mo Family, Mo Yang had long been waiting with Mo Yin at the entrance of the Mo Family...
Though they did not witness what happened at Sa Peak Summit firsthand, the news had already spread; Gu Changsheng, with merely a few words, forced Gu Tianyao, the “Visitor from the Upper Realm,” as described by outsiders, to jump off a cliff. Regardless of where the other side of the cliff led, the most direct reality was, Gu Changsheng was alive, Gu Tianyao was gone!
This war without gunpowder was silent, barely disturbing many people, but the Family Head of the three major families in the City in the Sky knew full well!
The Ouyang Family had long coveted the Mo Family, this time surely must taste defeat, didn’t you see even Mo Yin switched sides?
Without an instigator for internal conflicts, the Ouyang Family trying to stir things up in the Mo Family again is entirely impossible. Furthermore, with Gu Changsheng assisting, the Mo Family might become the peak family in the City in the Sky, which the Nangong’s Family, as spectators, can clearly see...
Precisely because they understood clearly, that is why people of the Nangong’s Family unusually retreated, deciding to stay out of this mess, effectively becoming turtles retracting their heads!
Therefore, when Gu Changsheng led a group of Ouyang’s guards into the Mo Family, the Family Head of the Ouyang Family received the news first, as did the Family Head of the Nangong’s Family...
“Patriarch Mo, we meet again...” After leading the group of Ouyang’s guards into the Mo Family, Gu Changsheng sighed to Mo Yang, who came to greet them.
“I’ve been waiting impatiently here, wasn’t I just hoping for your return?” Mo Yang laughed aloud at these words and said, “With your good mood, I assume everything went smoothly and the hidden dangers have been eliminated...”
Mo Yang’s words were alright until he spoke them, at which point Gu Changsheng’s mouth twitched slightly and she said instinctively, “Eliminate? That’s impossible! Have you ever heard of a centipede that doesn’t die completely? It’s just another feigned death escape, how could it be eliminated?”
If Gu Tianyao were so easily eliminated it would be good!
Moreover, claiming that Gu Tianyao feigned death makes Gu Changsheng a bit embarrassed...
In fact, Gu Tianyao merely jumped off a cliff this time, she didn’t even die, she escaped alive from Gu Changsheng’s grasp yet again, didn’t she?
Failure indeed!
This is truly Gu Changsheng’s biggest failure!
“What do you mean by that?” Mo Yang frowned upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s words and asked with confusion.
“Literal meaning!” Gu Changsheng sighed, looking at the sky and said, “Don’t you think even Patriarch Mo should know the saying there’s always someone beyond someone, a heaven beyond a heaven? Above the Middle Realm, there’s still the Upper Realm, only the gateway to the Upper Realm, perhaps even Patriarch Mo might not know clearly...”
“What you say is not wrong, everyone in the City in the Sky knows there’s a heaven beyond heaven, but as to where the gateway to the Upper Realm is, we truly know very little...” Mo Yang nodded immediately upon hearing this and said.
“Isn’t that what it is? What we don’t know, Gu Tianyao knows, so she exploited this loophole and escaped again!” Gu Changsheng shrugged, expressing helplessness.
“What are we supposed to do? Since she escaped, she likely won’t return to the Middle Realm again, you can rest assured to stay in my Mo Family as if it’s your own home, don’t hold back...” Mo Yang said immediately upon hearing this.
He invited Gu Changsheng to stay sincerely!
Heaven knows how sought-after Doctors are in the Middle Realm, Mo Yang had witnessed Gu Changsheng’s skills, thus he always felt fortunate to have befriended Gu Changsheng...
Facts have proven, Mo Yang is indeed fortunate!
Just look, isn’t this so...
It was due to the presence of Gu Changsheng that their Mo Family’s internal strife dissipated into thin air...
“Who told you I want to stay long-term in the Middle Realm?” Gu Changsheng said irritably upon hearing this, glancing at Mo Yang, “Staying at your home for a few days is necessary, but don’t worry, I’ll pay rent, did you see those house servants and guards I brought back from your rival’s family?”
“Ah? I’ve seen them...” Mo Yang said dumbfoundedly upon hearing this.
He really wanted to say, how could he dare accept rent from Gu Changsheng?
Wouldn’t that be slapping his own face?
But Gu Changsheng didn’t give him the chance to speak!
“Those house servants and guards are the rent I’m paying you! Well, Mo Family Patriarch’s cousin, you go, tell the head of your rival family, if he wants his men alive, he should come and see me!” Gu Changsheng said, leading her daughter toward the courtyard where they’re staying temporarily, while walking she said to Mo Yang who followed, “We need to stay in your place for a few more days, please help get the maps of the surroundings of Sa Peak, once I’ve found a way to open the Teleportation Barrier gate, we will leave...”
“Maps are easy, but you don’t have to leave in such a hurry, the City in the Sky is a rare cultivation haven, why not stay a few more days...” Mo Yang said immediately upon hearing this.
“I’m merely passing through the Middle Realm, this is not my destination, how can I stay long? Patriarch Mo, you don’t need to be so polite, we are but fleeting acquaintances, each taking what we need...” Gu Changsheng laughed as she turned around and looked at Mo Yang.
For those she met on this journey, Gu Changsheng had the attitude of fleeting acquaintances...
After all, with Gu Changsheng’s status...
