Grandma...
But this was his ancestor's treasure, how dare this venerable person kill his ancestor's grandmother in front of him?!
Are they treating them as if they don't exist?!
Gu Changtian was furious and took out a large pile of thunder talismans and threw them over.
Venerable Mu was pierced by Chiyu's trident and burned by the flames it sprayed.
Chiyu is the sacred beast Suzaku. Its fire is different from ordinary flames, and ordinary flames cannot burn him. However, this fire not only burns on his body for a long time but is also extremely painful. Now, lightning strikes down one after another.
These thunders were even more powerful than the thunders he encountered when he advanced to the fifth level and passed the tribulation.
Every time a bolt of lightning struck his body, he felt as if his internal organs were split apart, and he couldn't help but scream.
However, Bai Yanyan did not hear his screams. Gu Yunzhou blocked his voice and it could not reach Bai Yanyan.
Chiyu spent a long while calming down before retracting the trident and flying onto Gu Yunzhou's shoulder. He boldly asked, "Why did you save the prince just now? He's your rival in love."
Gu Yunzhou frowned and uttered two words: "Love rival?"
"Yes!" Chiyu nodded like garlic, "The prince likes my little master, and he is the emperor now! The emperor! If he wants, he can make my little master the queen!"
Don't underestimate it because it's small! It knows a lot about love.
"The Queen?"
Gu Yunzhou glanced at Xuanyuan Ye, and then said indifferently: "The Queen of this small country, Yanyan, doesn't like it. If she likes it, I can merge the two empires and let her be the empress."
Chiyu: “…”
"Besides, is the Xuanyuan family kid qualified to be my love rival?"
Gu Yunzhou picked up Chiyu and threw the whole chicken out, drawing a perfect parabola in the sky and then disappeared.
Gu Yunzhou acted as if nothing had happened, walked to Bai Yanyan's side, and stood side by side with her.
Bai Yanyan glanced at him, moved closer to him, and put her sleeve close to his. She even reached out her little hand and held his ring finger. However, she looked ahead seriously, pretending that nothing had happened.
Feeling the woman's fingers, Gu Yunzhou chuckled and held her hand tightly.
Then he looked ahead with her.
More than a dozen lightning bolts struck down, and Venerable Mu was not dead but was only half dead. Gu Changtian came out again and said that Venerable Mu was jealous of the good looks of his Gu family members and wanted to kill them, so as the patriarch of the Gu family, he had to teach Venerable Mu a lesson.
Of course, he said this for the sake of the newly enthroned Crown Prince Xuanyuan Ye.
Reverend Mu was the one who protected the Xuanyuan royal family, but now he was in trouble. Even if he wanted to assassinate Xuanyuan Ye, the royal family should be held responsible. Now that he said this, it was clear that Reverend Mu’s trouble was related to his Gu family. If any of them had any grievances, they could come to the Gu family.
Although Xuanyuan Ye didn't want to accept Gu Changtian's kindness, he had no choice but to let Gu Changtian have the final say.
This farce was over very quickly, and the ministers in the court did not dare to say anything. Not to mention the Alchemist Cang Zhu and the Young Master of Yaowang Valley, just take the four great families for example, they had never appeared in the palace at the same time.
Now that they have come, it is clear that they support the prince's ascension to the throne. How dare they say anything?
only…
Several smart people looked at Bai Yanyan.
"This girl from the Bai family is becoming more and more beautiful."
"So many people were protecting her just now. It's better to say they were coming for this Bai girl than for the prince."
"I've heard before that Miss Bai is a good friend of the second young master of the Hua family. She's also Master Cang Shu's apprentice. She has an even better relationship with Situ Yan, and she even had a date with the young master of the Gu family..."
"Not only that, I also heard that she is doing well in Wuyun Academy. This Four-Leaf Pill Pavilion seems to have some relationship with her. Moreover, Bai Yun returned home, but asked her to enter the palace on behalf of the Bai family. What does this mean? It means that Bai Yun passed the Bai family to her. She has such a good relationship with the other three families. What if she marries one of them..."
Several people began to whisper.
Bai Yanyan just felt her nose was a little itchy and she wanted to sneeze.
She was a little embarrassed just thinking about there being so many people around, but the next second Gu Yunzhou handed her a handkerchief, and then he stretched out his hand straight in front of her, and his hanging sleeves blocked her figure.
Bai Yanyan covered her handkerchief with her hands and sneezed slightly, then leaned over and whispered, "My nose is a little itchy, I feel like someone is saying bad things about me behind my back."
Gu Yunzhou glanced at the ministers who had just spoken, then turned sideways and said gently, "They are jealous of your good looks."
"real?"
"Um."
Gu Yunzhou nodded, handed over the exquisitely decorated plate in front of him, exchanged it with hers, and brought the warmed soup to her, "Have some soup."
"Uh-huh."
Bai Yanyan lowered her head and drank the soup.
Gu Yunzhou's eyes fell on her, watching her eat with relish, the corners of his lips curled up, and at the same time he observed the dishes she liked to eat, and then asked the palace maid to bring more.
Except Bai Yanyan.
He didn't notice the others, nor did he take them into consideration.
Hua Mingyue and Cang Shu were used to it. Situ Yan looked at Gu Yunzhou curiously. Gu Qingyu also looked at Gu Yunzhou, but he was different from Situ Yan. His brows were furrowed and his eyes were even deeper.
Gu Changtian supported his face with his hands and looked at the interaction between the two with a look of satisfaction.
His ancestor is still smart.
At this rate, he will be able to hold his ancestor's child soon.
——
Come out of the palace.
Bai Yanyan accompanied Situ Yan back to Situ's house.
Her brother Situ Yu hasn't woken up yet, but... Bai Yanyan checked and found nothing abnormal. The poison in his body was almost healed, and he didn't look like he was not awake. Instead, he seemed to be immersed in cultivation.
"Practice?"
"Yes."
Bai Yanyan nodded. "The lifespan of demons is naturally longer than that of humans, especially since he must be of high status. He fell into a deep sleep because of the poisoning and illness, and he hasn't woken up yet, only because he's cultivating. You don't have to worry too much, he'll wake up when the time comes."
Situ Yan understood.
She touched her brother's ear and said, "As long as he's okay."
She is no longer worried now, and she has thought it through clearly. Since Yanyan helped her to hand over the Situ family to her, what she has to do is to lead the Situ family to become stronger, strong enough to protect the people she cares about.
"Oh right..."
Bai Yanyan took out the Tianxuan Fruit and a spiritual herb, "Put this spiritual herb next to him. Take the Tianxuan Fruit and give it to him when he wakes up. These two ninth-grade spiritual stones are for you, as well as these medicinal pills..."
Situ Yan is her fellow villager, a little fangirl of her movie star dad, and she may be Xiao Qingzi's daughter-in-law in the future, so naturally she has to be nice to her!
