Chapter 283: Grandmother? The one I won over is the grandmother!

Grandmother?

Zhu Yuyan?

Shan Wanjing stared at the woman in front of her wearing a heavy veil. She truly never expected to be face-to-face with the Queen of Yin. Now, seeing the Queen of Yin, Zhu Yuyan, blocking Gu Qing's path with a guarded expression made Shan Wanjing feel amused.

Grandmother?

What grandmother?

The one I cuckolded is the grandmother!

Shan Wanjing had originally been dressed in men's attire, carrying a hint of heroic spirit. At this moment, she undid the hair bun on her head. Instantly, her black hair cascaded down, setting off her skin to be even fairer, her appearance and bearing moving to the extreme.

This demeanor reminded Gu Qing of that night with Zhu Yuyan.

"Grand Tutor Gu, what do you think of my appearance?"

Shan Wanjing reined in some of her arrogance; her voice was melodious and even more moving.

Zhu Yuyan closed her eyes slightly. Killing intent, accompanied by spiritual power, permeated the air, following the pores of Shan Wanjing's body to pierce inward, wrapping Shan Wanjing tightly. This was originally a lethal pressure, but in front of Zhu Yuyan, Shan Wanjing carried an extraordinary resilience, unyielding, as they stood against each other.

"How is Bian Bufan's strength?"

Gu Qing suddenly asked.

Zhu Yuyan withdrew her killing intent, pondered for a moment, and said, "He can rank in the top twenty or thirty in the Jiang Hu."

The Demon Hidden Bian Bufan's Demonic Sect martial arts were extremely refined. He was greedy for beauty and lustful, arrogant and prone to underestimating his opponents in a fight—a textbook Demonic Sect member, and also a qualified Demonic Sect elder.

"How many moves do you need to defeat him now?"

Gu Qing asked again.

Zhu Yuyan was originally a top-tier figure in the Demonic Sect. In the Jiang Hu's perception, Zhu Yuyan's strength was even above Shi Zhixuan's. Now, Zhu Yuyan had obtained the Dao Heart Planting Demon Great Art and had gained many of Gu Qing's martial arts essences; her martial arts had already advanced a step further. Hearing Gu Qing's question, Zhu Yuyan pondered and said, "I understand."

Bian Bufan was already of no importance.

"Wanjing, I will kill him."

Zhu Yuyan said coldly, "You go back obediently; don't be ungrateful."

This made Shan Wanjing laugh out of anger. As the daughter of Dongming Lady Shan Meixian, after learning everything Bian Bufan had done to her mother, Shan Wanjing naturally took on the task of avenging her mother. But she hadn't expected that as Shan Meixian's mother, Zhu Yuyan's reason for wanting to kill Bian Bufan wasn't out of mother-daughter affection, but because she didn't want Shan Wanjing to have contact with Gu Qing.

"Grand Tutor Gu."

Shan Wanjing was under Zhu Yuyan's mental suppression, her eyes bloodshot, but she still looked steadily at Gu Qing and said, "I want to take revenge personally and reclaim this justice."

Gu Qing looked at Shan Wanjing's stubborn demeanor, nodded, and replied, "Good."

Similarly facing a mother's misfortune and needing to take revenge on a scumbag father, Shan Wanjing was much stronger than Yuan Ziyi, and Gu Qing also wanted to help.

Zhu Yuyan intended to speak but was blocked by Gu Qing. Watching Gu Qing step forward and reach out to press his hand on Shan Wanjing's forehead, the Longevity Secret Qi dispersed, and the influence Zhu Yuyan had caused on Shan Wanjing using the Demon Seed was thus eliminated.

Zhu Yuyan felt displeased in her heart, but she saw that as soon as Shan Wanjing recovered, she wrapped her arms around Gu Qing's arm, her exquisite charms pressing against Gu Qing's body, her gaze containing a hint of provocation.

Shi Feixuan and Wan Wan's gazes flickered, knowing that Shan Wanjing was going to stand her ground and go against the Queen of Yin.

At this moment, Gu Qing looked toward Li Shimin and Li Xiuning.

This future Emperor Taizong of Tang, in his early twenties, stood on Gu Qing's boat like a lackey.

"Greetings, Grand Tutor Gu."

Li Xiuning was beautiful and bright, her legs slender; she smiled at Gu Qing, looking bright and generous.

Kou Zhong fought for the world because he wanted to prove himself in front of Li Xiuning, but even after fighting to the end, there was no result. "Grand Tutor."

Li Shimin said from the side, "When the current Emperor launched his second expedition to Gao Li, Yang Xuangan rebelled. In order to contain Yang Xuangan, my family purchased many weapons and armor. Now that Gao Li has been pacified and the world is at peace, Yang Guang is investigating everywhere, suspecting my Li family of having rebellious intentions. My Li family has nowhere to appeal, which is why we traveled thousands of miles to find the Grand Tutor."

Li Shimin spoke with great grievance.

When he was four, he was praised as "saving the world and pacifying the people." All along, Li Shimin had been preparing to do great things, until Gu Qing swept through Gao Li, pouring a bucket of cold water on Li Shimin. Now, because of Gu Qing's strength, no one in the world dared to cause chaos. In this stable situation, Yang Guang was attacking everywhere, punishing those who were disobedient.

"The people of the world are displaced, and rebel armies are rising everywhere, all because of the disaster caused by Yang Guang alone."

At this time, Li Xiuning said boldly, "Grand Tutor Gu, Yang Guang's cruelty is comparable to Jie and Zhou. As the Grand Tutor of the current dynasty, you must not aid the tyrant in his evil!"

Gu Qing turned his head to look at Shi Feixuan, only to see Shi Feixuan standing at the side of the boat, staring intently at the river water, showing no reaction to the words of the Li siblings, keeping herself entirely out of the matter.

"Then, do you two think it would be better for Yang Guang to issue an Edict of Self-Accusation, or for Yang Guang to issue an Edict of Amnesty for the world?"

Gu Qing asked.

Li Shimin's eyes flickered, and he immediately said, "Of course, an Edict of Self-Accusation! And in this Edict of Self-Accusation, he must emphasize that because of his own mistakes, the world's farming missed the season, disasters are everywhere, land is barren, people are starving to death, to the point that the world's strength is exhausted..."

!

Such an Edict of Self-Accusation could greatly undermine Yang Guang's legitimacy.

"Grand Tutor Gu."

Li Shimin said again, "Such an Edict of Self-Accusation aligns with the grievances of the people."

If Gu Qing forced Yang Guang to write such an Edict of Self-Accusation, then Gu Qing would be standing with the rebel armies of the world; the Li family purchasing weapons and the like wouldn't count as anything at all.

Gu Qing looked at Li Shimin, quite appreciative, and said, "When I return to Daxing, I will let Yang Guang write the Edict of Self-Accusation."

As for Gu Qing writing a letter to make Yang Guang bow his head and admit his mistakes, that was impossible.

People have the characteristic of not shedding tears until they see the coffin. Gu Qing also knew that the deterrent power of his words was always within the range of his fists and feet. Currently, Gu Qing couldn't reach Yang Guang in Daxing.

Hearing this, Li Shimin was overjoyed and bowed to Gu Qing again.

"Grand Tutor Gu, my family asked me to stay by the Grand Tutor's side and tour the mountains and waters together."

Li Xiuning lowered her head slightly and said, "When Grand Tutor Gu grows tired of Xiuning, Xiuning will leave on her own."

Gu Qing looked at Li Xiuning; in terms of marriage alliances, Li Xiuning performed well.

"Then let's go together."

Gu Qing agreed frankly. Xu Ziling's goddess had already been tied to Gu Qing's side; tying another of Kou Zhong's goddesses would be quite interesting when he met his two disciples in the future.

Li Xiuning walked lightly to Gu Qing's side and was just about to speak when she was glanced at sideways by Zhu Yuyan, which frightened Li Xiuning into silence.

That the world-famous Queen of Yin would actually be jealous like a young girl was something Li Xiuning dared not imagine. This made Li Xiuning look at Gu Qing with a hint of admiration; this should be the first time the Queen of Yin had completely fallen since entering the Jiang Hu.

Gu Qing walked toward Shi Feixuan, but as he approached, his path was blocked by Dugu Feng.

"Master Gu!"

Dugu Feng's gaze was stern; her eyes met Gu Qing's, and she said, "Whatever you want to say, Feng'er understands. No matter what you do, Feng'er supports it!"

Shi Feixuan's delicate body trembled; she never expected that her words could be preempted by Dugu Feng!

During this time, Dugu Feng had truly learned!
