Chapter 373 The Holy Son of Miao Territory is Bewitched by the Villainous Cult Leader (11)
A certain cult leader, whose heart is smaller than a pinhead, absolutely cannot tolerate two little light bulbs dangling in front of him.
"Tch, it's not even a question yet, why are you thinking so much, Holy Son? She hasn't even agreed to marry you yet!" Ah Lü said unhappily.
"He won't marry me, but I can marry him!"
Ah Lü and Ah Zi's eyes widened immediately.
They then realized something: why had their holy son always referred to his future husband? Was their holy son the one on the bottom?!
The two shared the same shocked expression.
"What's so surprising? What difference does it make if I marry him or he marries me? The process doesn't matter, as long as the result is the same."
A-Lu and A-Zi: But the key point is... that's not what shocked us!
The two girls were internally frantic, but they didn't know how to say it.
If I were to tell him, I feel my own holy son might be so embarrassed that he'd want to disappear into the ground.
The two decided to keep quiet.
"What are you thinking about now?"
"No, no, what is the Holy Son going out to do today?" the two little girls asked curiously.
“Something happened at Red Lotus Manor yesterday. When I returned this morning, I heard that various sects in Jiangnan wanted to go to the Sun Sect to seek justice for the hundreds of lives lost at Red Lotus Manor. They want to harm my husband. How can I sit idly by and wait to die?”
"But... it's almost noon now. If you rush over now, won't you be too late? What if Madam gets bullied?"
Although the two really didn't want to admit that their holy son liked the infamous demon Gu Shixian, there was nothing they could do. What could they do when their holy son just happened to fall in love with her?
"Don't worry, those sects will only get bullied by Gu Shixian. None of them can fight him."
Hilarious! Bullying Gu Shixian?
Who can bully him?!
It's good enough that he doesn't bully others.
Yu Sheng hadn't planned to go back so soon, but he didn't expect to hear about the major events that the various sects were planning as soon as he returned to the inn, which made him have to be on guard.
Logically speaking, the various sects shouldn't be so reckless as to go to their deaths knowing they can't defeat the Sun-Sweeping Sect.
They've been timid for so many years, how come they've suddenly risen up?
This is nothing like the style of those reputable sects; it's more like... like someone is behind it all.
Before meeting the original male lead, Yu Sheng hadn't considered him. But after seeing him, he realized that there was an 80% chance that the person who instigated those prestigious sects to attack the Sun-Sweeping Sect was the male lead, Ji Changyun.
From certain angles, the male lead Ji Changyun and Gu Shixian do bear a resemblance.
Although the plot transmitted by 888 did not mention the relationship between the two, judging from the scenes of Ji Changyun and Gu Shixian clashing in the original plot and their somewhat similar appearances, the two are most likely related by blood.
"888, are Ji Changyun and Gu Shixian brothers?"
After a pause, Ji Changyun said without any concealment, "Yes, Ji Changyun and Gu Shixian are cousins. Their grudges involve their past lives."
"Gu Shixian's mother was the eldest daughter of the family. She was betrothed to the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace since childhood. The two were childhood sweethearts. Gu Shixian's mother had a younger sister born out of wedlock, who is now the Consort De. She is a very ambitious woman. She wanted to marry the Crown Prince and become the Crown Princess, but unfortunately the Crown Prince did not think much of her."
Disdainful of her status as an illegitimate daughter, Consort De was unwilling to accept it, so she implicated the Crown Prince in drugging him and then tried to shift the blame for the drugging onto Gu Shixian's mother.
The Crown Prince had no choice but to agree to take Consort De as his concubine. However, Gu Shixian's mother wanted a lifelong, monogamous relationship. Since the Crown Prince could not fulfill this wish, she eloped.
During her escape from the arranged marriage, she encountered numerous assassination attempts by Consort De. It was during this time that she met Gu Shixian's father. Unfortunately, Consort De informed the Crown Prince of this, who was furious and dispatched numerous experts. In the end, Gu Shixian's father was killed, while his mother was taken back to the palace and imprisoned in the Eastern Palace.
At that time, Gu Shixian's mother was already pregnant. If it weren't for the child in her womb, she might have committed suicide long ago because she couldn't bear the humiliation.
Later, the crown prince became emperor, and he tried to kill Gu Shixian several times. If it weren't for Gu Shixian's mother threatening suicide, Gu Shixian might have died long ago.
Later, Gu Shixian's mother bribed the chief eunuch and took young Gu Shixian out of the palace.
With such a past relationship, it's no wonder that Ji Changyun and Gu Shixian can't get along peacefully!
Yu Sheng was speechless.
So, everyone in this world, from the protagonist to his parents, is living a tragic love story.
However, this only confirmed his conjecture.
Ji Changyun's trip to Jiangnan this time was probably specifically for Gu Shixian.
Neither Consort De nor he wanted Gu Shixian to still be alive.
Because Gu Shixian looks so much like his mother, they are afraid that if the emperor learns of Gu Shixian's existence, he will treat him well because of his mother after seeing his face.
Consort De would never allow such a thing to happen.
Not to mention that the emperor is now terminally ill, and she does not want her years of planning to come to nothing.
Yu Sheng led A-Lu and A-Zi towards the direction of the Xian Ri Sect, and along the way they encountered a large army that was going to attack the Xian Ri Sect.
At a glance, he spotted Ji Changyun and his beloved Bai Yue'er, who were entwined in the crowd.
The two of them were so affectionate that it was impossible not to notice them.
"Eh, young master, are you also here to punish the great demon of the Sun-Slaying Cult?"
The Great Demon? Are you referring to Gu Shixian?
"Young man, you have an extraordinary bearing. You must have studied under a master. May I ask which school you belong to?"
Yu Sheng smiled calmly, "I belong to no sect or faction; I'm just an idle person who's here to watch the excitement."
Naturally, no one believed it.
Judging from the fabric of Yu Sheng's clothes and the accessories he wore, they were all rare and precious items. Not to mention the two little girls accompanying him, who were exquisite and cute, and whose accessories were also extraordinary.
How could someone like that be an idle person without any affiliation or sect?
Who knows, he might be the last disciple of some great hero!
Yu Sheng's striking red dress and beautiful face naturally attracted many people to stop and watch.
Ji Changyun was no exception.
Upon seeing Yu Sheng, Ji Changyun showed a hint of surprise, as if he hadn't expected to see her at this time.
He put his arm around Bai Yue'er and walked toward Yu Sheng with a clear purpose.
"Young master, are you here to join in the fun too?"
"I don't remember knowing you," Yu Sheng said in a cold voice, lazily glancing at Ji Changyun before quickly looking away.
"Young master, have you forgotten? Your subordinates seem to know one of my maids. If Yue'er hadn't been unwell, I would have come to greet you."
