Chapter 985: Gu Xinran

~6 min read 1,113 words

In the Square.

The crowd stared at Wang Jianqiang, dumbfounded.

The vast Square was deathly silent.

No one had expected that Wang Jianqiang, with just a few words, would actually manage to whisk away the goddess of the Feng Family generation.

Isn't this process a bit too simple?

Is this the charm of a legendary student from the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace?

It is terrifyingly impressive!

Feng Lingtian and Gu Tianhai were also somewhat stunned.

"Ahem."

"Hahaha, young people certainly do things in a straightforward and refreshing way."

Gu Tianhai let out a laugh.

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "I have already expressed my intentions, and I ask for Senior Gu's approval."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's humble words, Gu Tianhai was all smiles, "I, Gu Tianhai, have always been democratic in my conduct and never interfere in the marriage matters of my clansmen. Since you and Xinran have mutual feelings, I and the Gu Family naturally support it."

Feng Lingtian:...

Feng Yichen:...

The crowd:...

Even Gu Xinran could not help but look at her father with a strange expression on her face.

Hasn't her father always been quite serious?

Why is he suddenly so fond of joking today?

A look of admiration appeared on Wang Jianqiang's face, "I didn't expect Senior to be so open-minded."

Gu Tianhai waved his hand with a smile, "My personality has always been this way."

Wang Jianqiang offered another round of praise.

The smile on Gu Tianhai's face grew even richer.

Afterwards, the Feng Family Ancestral Sacrifice Ceremony continued, and Wang Jianqiang and Gu Tianhai chatted more and more congenially, the two of them talking quite happily.

Feng Lingtian tried to interject several times, but could not get a word in.

He felt a sense of stifled frustration in his heart.

After the better part of a day, the Ancestral Sacrifice Ceremony finally ended.

Gu Tianhai looked at Wang Jianqiang with a face full of concern, "Jianqiang, you have come from afar, gone through two battles, and then watched the Ancestral Sacrifice Ceremony for such a long time; you must be very tired, right?"

As he spoke, he looked at Gu Xinran, "Xinran, why don't you hurry and take Jianqiang to rest?"

"Oh, right, since Jianqiang isn't an outsider, don't let him stay in the guest rooms. Isn't your place quite spacious? Just have him stay there."

After finishing, he winked at Gu Xinran.

Gu Xinran:...

The crowd:...

Feng Lingtian:...

Isn't this a bit too impatient?

Gu Tianhai seemed not to notice the strangeness in everyone's gazes; seeing Gu Xinran dazed, he frowned, "What is it, Xinran? Do you have any concerns?"

Hearing this, Gu Xinran immediately came back to her senses, "Ah? This... alright, I will take Daoist Friend Wang to rest now."

After speaking, she looked at Wang Jianqiang, "Daoist Friend Wang, follow me."

Wang Jianqiang was an easygoing person who could stay anywhere, so he had no objections to Gu Tianhai's arrangements.

Hearing Gu Xinran's invitation, he nodded with a smile.

"Two Seniors, this junior will take his leave now."

He cupped his fists toward Gu Tianhai and Feng Lingtian, then followed Gu Xinran.

Not long after.

The two arrived at an elegant Pavilion.

The Pavilion was very spacious.

However, most of the area was taken up by the main hall, with only four rooms.

Two Cultivation Rooms and two bedrooms.

Among them, each of the two Cultivation Rooms contained a pool filled with Spirit Liquid rich in Spirit Qi.

After Gu Xinran assigned a bedroom to Wang Jianqiang, she suddenly received a voice transmission from Gu Tianhai, greeted Wang Jianqiang, and hurried away.

Wang Jianqiang had traveled all the way from the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace and had not yet had a chance to rest, so he was indeed slightly tired.

He pondered for a moment, walked into a Cultivation Room, entered a Spirit Pool, found a comfortable position, and lay back against the edge of the pool.

Dense Spirit Qi continuously surged from the Spirit Liquid into his body, soothing his fatigue.

It is unknown how much time passed.

A faint fluctuation came from the main hall.

Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted, and he slowly opened his eyes.

"Gu Xinran is back?"

He rose from the pool, preparing to tidy up and leave the Cultivation Room.

The door to the Cultivation Room was suddenly opened.

A woman who looked thirty percent similar to Gu Xinran, but with a more mature appearance, appeared before the door.

The woman's attire was quite revealing and bold, without the slightest restraint.

Wang Jianqiang was completely dumbfounded.

Wait, who is this?

How did she get in?

And...

Is she always this generous?

While Wang Jianqiang was lost in a daze, the woman outside the door also froze, as if she had not expected a stranger to appear in this Cultivation Room.

A moment later.

She reacted.

"Ah!"

Bang~

A piercing scream nearly shattered Wang Jianqiang's eardrums, and immediately after, the door of the Cultivation Room slammed shut.

Wang Jianqiang frowned.

A flash of Spirit Light shone on his body, and a Five-Colored Dharma Treasure Long Robe appeared on him.

At the same time.

The door of the Cultivation Room opened again.

The bold woman from before appeared once more, only this time, she was wearing a magnificent long dress with a dignified temperament; Wang Jianqiang almost didn't recognize her.

"Who are you!"

"Why are you here!"

The woman looked coldly at Wang Jianqiang, and a powerful aura permeated the entire Cultivation Room.

An Integration Stage Cultivator?

Wang Jianqiang was secretly on guard in his heart; to be safe, he had already contacted Xiaobai.

With just a single thought, he could borrow Xiaobai's power.

"You're asking me who I am?"

"I'd like to ask who you are! Why are you appearing in Xinran's residence?"

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's questioning.

The woman was stunned.

Her attention fell sharply on how Wang Jianqiang addressed Gu Xinran.

"Xinran?"

"Are you..."

"Wang Jianqiang?"

She asked Wang Jianqiang with some uncertainty.

Wang Jianqiang nodded, "I didn't expect the Fairy to know me. Forgive my poor eyesight, but may I ask who the Fairy is?"

The woman was silent for a moment, "My name is Gu Xinxin."

Gu Xinxin?

Wang Jianqiang was taken aback.

How is this name so similar to Gu Xinran's?

Suddenly, as if he had realized something, he asked Gu Xinxin with some hesitation, "What is your relationship to Gu Xinran...?"

Gu Xinxin was silent for a moment, "I am her sister."

"Biological sister?"

"Mm, biological sister."

Hearing Gu Xinxin's confirmation again, Wang Jianqiang's expression instantly became strange.

If he remembered correctly...

Gu Xinran seemed to only have one biological sister!
