"From now on, your name is Gu Nan, and you will be my goddaughter."
A teenage girl knelt before Gu Nan and, upon hearing his words, respectfully replied:
"Thank you, godfather, for avenging me. From now on, you are Gu Nan's father."
After Gu Nan finished speaking, Gu Nan stopped talking and waved her into the city lord's mansion.
Then it pointed to a lonely boy sitting alone under a big tree in the center of the mansion.
“Gu Nan, this person will be your younger brother from now on. It’s just a pity that, as my only son, he is still unable to cultivate.”
After saying that, Gu Nan disappeared from Gu Nan's sight.
Gu Nan watched Gu Nan disappear from sight, then turned and saw the boy under the tree.
He jogged up to the boy, smiled, and said:
"Hello, I am the adopted daughter your father brought back. My name is Gu Nan. From today onwards, we are siblings."
The girl looked up at the older woman in front of her, who was several years older than her, and timidly spoke.
"You... hello, my name is Gu Changqing, are you really willing to accept me, Feiwu, who is unable to cultivate, as your younger brother?"
Looking at her somewhat timid younger brother, Gu Nan gently placed her hand on his head, ruffled it, and then softly said:
"Of course, what's the big deal if you can't cultivate? Besides, aren't you the city lord's only son? Even if you can't cultivate, you can still enjoy wealth and luxury."
Feeling Gu Nan's hand rubbing the top of his head, Gu Changqing narrowed his eyes, as if he was enjoying something. After a while, he spoke to Gu Nan.
"Sister...sister, it's because...because of them..."
Just as Gu Nan was about to ask who they were, a commotion broke out.
"Hey, where's that little bastard Gu Changqing who can't cultivate?"
A young man, about the same age as Gu Changqing, dressed in gorgeous clothes, walked over.
When the group reached Gu Changqing, the leader spoke in a mocking tone:
"Where did you go, you little bastard? Turns out you were hiding here. What, where did you find this pretty maid? She looks quite good. How about letting your brothers have some fun with her?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Changting's body trembled uncontrollably, but he still firmly rejected his brothers.
"Gu Nan isn't some maid; she's my sister! I won't let you take her away from me!"
Seeing Gu Changqing trembling all over but still pretending to be strong, the group of teenagers burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, you think you can fight someone like Fei Wu who doesn't even have any cultivation yet? Haven't you been beaten badly enough? If you weren't Father's eldest son, we would have killed you long ago."
Upon hearing this, Gu Changting, his body trembling, stepped firmly in front of Gu Nan and said:
"I don't care how you hit me or scold me, but today no one will be allowed to take my sister away!"
Upon hearing Gu Changqing's words, the group of youths said no more and immediately activated their spiritual power, rushing towards Gu Changqing.
Seeing the group of teenagers unleash their Qi Refining cultivation spiritual energy, Gu Changqing trembled even more violently. However, he did not flinch away as usual, because he knew that behind him was his sister, the only family member who cared about him.
So even if he was prepared to be crippled, he wouldn't flinch. And facing the fist that seemed about to smash into him at any moment, Gu Changqing closed his eyes in fear.
After a long while, Gu Changqing wondered why he hadn't been hit yet, and forced open his tightly closed eyes, suppressing his fear.
Upon closer inspection, Gu Nan was standing in front of him, and the fist that had been rushing towards Gu Changqing was now tightly clenched in her hand.
Gu Changqing was somewhat surprised at how capable his sister was.
The group of teenagers said in a fierce tone:
"Where did this little maid come from? Quickly put down Brother Gu's hand."
Just as the boy finished speaking, a scream reached their ears.
"Aaaaah, you bitch, how dare you break my arm!"
Looking at his arm that had been severed by the girl in front of him, the boy shouted at Gu Nan with murderous intent.
Gu Nan ignored the boy's threatening words and kicked him directly into the group of boys.
"I am Gu Changqing's sister. I don't care how you bullied him before. Now, as long as I'm here, none of you are allowed to come near Changqing!"
Upon hearing Gu Nan's threatening words, the group of teenagers looked at the unconscious Gu Erge on the ground. Gone was their previous arrogance. After uttering some harsh words, they picked up the unconscious Gu Erge and fled as if running away.
"Thank you, sister..."
Gu Changqing's timid voice reached Gu Nan's ears.
Gu Nan patted Gu Changqing's head and said comfortingly:
"Don't be afraid of these people anymore. From now on, with your older sister here, no one can bully you. Also, you were very brave to protect your older sister just now."
Hearing Gu Nan praise his bravery, Gu Changqing, who had never been praised before, blushed slightly and said in a voice barely louder than a mosquito's buzz:
"No...no, my sister is still the best."
Seeing Gu Changqing blushing, Gu Nan smiled slightly and pulled Gu Changqing along to familiarize themselves with the layout of the City Lord's Mansion.
After a series of playful games filled with laughter, Gu Nan and Gu Changqing sat quietly atop the central tower of the City Lord's Mansion.
Looking at the star-studded sky, Gu Changqing turned to look at Gu Nan, only to find Gu Nan staring back at him.
Gu Changqing's face flushed instantly. She quickly turned her head to stare at the sky and whispered:
