When Li Mingxuan saw Gu Sang walking towards him, his expression turned even colder. He looked at Gu Sang with a sullen face and didn't say a word.
"Hahahaha... Duke Li, you've finally come to see me! So, how did our conversation go?" Gu Sang walked up to Li Mingxuan and said with a grin.
Upon hearing this, Li Mingxuan remained silent, only giving Gu Sang a cold glare.
Seeing Li Mingxuan's reaction, Gu Sang's smile froze for a moment. A hint of doubt flashed through his mind as he looked at Li Mingxuan. For some reason, he felt that Li Mingxuan seemed to harbor some hostility towards him. However, Gu Sang didn't dwell on it. Looking at Li Mingxuan, he smiled and said, "Lord Li, you don't look well. What happened? What's wrong?"
"Hmph, stop pretending. I'm not buying it. Don't forget who helped you escape Duke Gu's pursuit. If I hadn't saved you, Duke Gu would have thought you were already dead. Now you repay kindness with enmity and betray me. You are truly despicable. I saw through your true nature long ago." Li Mingxuan snorted coldly and then said angrily to Gu Sang.
Upon hearing this, Gu Sang looked at Li Mingxuan and was momentarily stunned. She wondered how Li Mingxuan knew that she had been rescued by Duke Gu. However, Gu Sang quickly figured it out. It must have been Li Mingxuan who sent someone to follow Duke Gu, which was why their plan was exposed so quickly and why Li Mingxuan knew about it.
However, now that the truth has been revealed, there is no way to undo it.
So, Gu Sang looked at Li Mingxuan and said disdainfully, "So that's how it is. I never thought you were this kind of person, Duke Li. I even considered you a friend. How could you do this? I really didn't expect it."
"Duke Gu, stop pretending in front of me. Do you think I don't know what kind of person you are? Hmph, I'm warning you, if you don't want me to abolish your Gu clan, you'd better apologize to me immediately, otherwise, I will definitely make you pay the price!" Li Mingxuan snorted coldly and said unhappily.
"Hahahaha, Duke Li, you really have quite the airs! What makes you think you can make our Gu clan pay the price? What gives you the right?" Gu Sang burst into laughter upon hearing this. He looked at Li Mingxuan and asked him in a mocking tone.
"On what grounds? Because my father is the emperor of this country, and I am the monarch of this country. If I say the Gu family will pay the price, then they must pay the price. My father is not someone to be trifled with. If you dare to act recklessly again, I guarantee that it won't be as simple as your Gu family being implicated. Hmph, don't underestimate my father. His abilities are far greater than yours. If your Gu family doesn't know what's good for you, I believe that I will definitely make you pay a heavy price!" Li Mingxuan snorted coldly and warned Gu Sang.
Upon hearing this, Gu Sang looked at Li Mingxuan with an indifferent expression. He smiled at Li Mingxuan, then slowly reached out and gently touched his forehead, pretending to be very sleepy.
Gu Sang pretended to be very tired, then yawned and slowly closed her eyes.
"What? Could it be that you, Duke Gu, are trying to drive me away?" Li Mingxuan looked at Gu Sang, snorted coldly, and questioned her.
"No, Duke Li, what are you saying? You are a subject of the Great Yan Kingdom, a member of our royal family. How could you leave? Don't you agree?" Gu Sang opened her eyes, looked at Li Mingxuan, and said with a smile.
Although Gu Sang was talking to Li Mingxuan, his gaze never left Li Mingxuan.
Li Mingxuan looked at Gu Sang, snorted coldly, and stared at her for a long time until Gu Sang felt that Li Mingxuan's gaze was getting numb. Finally, a look of disgust appeared on Gu Sang's face.
"Lord Li, may I ask what brings you here today?" Gu Sang asked, looking at Li Mingxuan.
Upon hearing this, Li Mingxuan looked at Gu Sang, snorted coldly, and did not answer Gu Sang's question. He looked at Gu Sang and said with a serious expression, "Duke Gu, have you forgotten what you promised me? My patience is limited. I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer as soon as possible. If your answer does not satisfy me, then you should know what your fate will be."
"Duke Gu, rest assured, I will not break my promise. I will not go back on my word. You can rest assured that I will prepare what you want. Moreover, I have another great gift to give you." Gu Sang smiled mockingly as he looked at Li Mingxuan and said indifferently.
"Oh? What grand gift does Duke Gu have?" Upon hearing this, Li Mingxuan raised an eyebrow and looked at Gu Sang with interest.
"Haha, Duke Li, don't be in such a hurry. I have another gift here, which I believe will be even more sincere than this grand gift," Gu Sang said with a smile.
"Hmph, if that's the case, then hurry up and bring it out. No matter what kind of grand gift you have, I don't care!" Li Mingxuan said with a disdainful sneer.
"In that case, I'll take my leave now." Gu Sang said with a smile as she looked at Li Mingxuan.
After Gu Sang finished speaking, she ignored Li Mingxuan and turned to leave.
"Wait! You want to leave? Fine, hand over the antidote, and I might spare your life." Gu Sang had only taken two steps when her arm was suddenly grabbed.
Upon hearing this, Gu Sang frowned, looking at the person holding his arm with displeasure, and coldly asked, "Let go of me. Who are you? Why are you holding my arm?"
Gu Sang's arm was being held by a man who looked to be around twenty-five or twenty-six years old. He was dressed in a black, close-fitting outfit, and his eyes revealed a shrewd and cunning look. He was quite tall, about 1.8 meters, and good-looking, but there was always an air of arrogance between his brows, making him appear very conceited. Moreover, he was very burly, giving off a strong and robust feeling, especially since he stood up very straight, giving off an arrogant and unapproachable air.
Gu Sang's expression turned cold as the man grabbed his arm. He forcefully pulled his arm back, then looked up at the man standing in front of him and asked coldly, "Who exactly are you?"
