"Hmph, I'm right here in my room, what can you do to me? If you dare to barge into my room, then the two of us will fight endlessly, and you'll be the ones who suffer!" Gu Sang snorted coldly upon hearing Gu Yun's shouts, and said coldly to Gu Yun.
He didn't want to fight Gu Yun. After all, he and Gu Yun weren't exactly close. However, if he didn't want to fight Gu Yun, Gu Yun wouldn't dare to rush into his room. After all, he had no right to force him. Moreover, Gu Sang wasn't stupid, nor was he the kind of person who acted rashly. He didn't want to cause trouble for Li Mingxuan. That's why he didn't impulsively rush in and beat Gu Yun up. Otherwise, based on Gu Yun's mockery of him earlier, he would have already rushed in and given Gu Yun a good beating.
"Hmph, I think you're asking for a beating, aren't you? How dare you talk to me like that? Believe me or not, I'll storm in right now and tear your room down!" Gu Yun was so angry that his nose almost twisted.
He never imagined that he, a dignified county magistrate, would be looked down upon in this Northwest City. Moreover, this person was just a callow youth who dared to speak to him with such contempt.
How could Gu Yun possibly swallow this insult?
So, upon hearing Gu Sang's words, Gu Yun immediately became furious. He glared at Gu Sang with a gloomy expression and said viciously, "Hmph, let me tell you, no matter what, I will not let you go. I will definitely arrest you and let you know how miserable the consequences are for offending me, Gu Yun. I want to see which bastard is so arrogant that he dares to offend the Gu family."
After saying that, Gu Yun turned around and walked out of Gu Sang's room indignantly without waiting for Gu Sang to speak.
Watching Gu Yun's angry departure, a sinister and wicked smile appeared on Gu Sang's lips. "Hmph, Gu Yun, you'll be dead soon!" Gu Sang thought to herself.
Although he couldn't directly oppose the Gu family, he could step in and help resolve any trouble they might encounter. The Gu family was very famous; he simply couldn't believe that if they couldn't even handle a small city like Northwest City, they didn't deserve to be the number one family there.
Thinking of this, Gu Sang snorted coldly, went straight back to her room, closed her eyes and began to concentrate on her cultivation.
Neither of them slept well that night. The words kept echoing in their minds. They only managed to doze off briefly as dawn broke, but soon woke up again.
"Gu Sang, you stay in your room. I'm going out for a walk, and I'll come back to call you for dinner later!" Just then, Li Mingxuan's voice suddenly reached Gu Sang's ears, and the excitement in Gu Sang's heart immediately dissipated. The smile on his face also slowly faded.
A bitter smile appeared on his face. He sighed inwardly. "Alas," he thought, "Li Mingxuan's strength is truly formidable. In just three short years, he has broken through from a third-tier martial artist to a fifth-tier martial warrior. Such a cultivation speed is terrifying. In just three years, Li Mingxuan has leaped from a fourth-tier martial warrior to a fifth-tier martial warrior. What kind of cultivation speed is this? If I gave Li Mingxuan another ten years, perhaps he could reach the sixth-tier martial king realm. In that case, Li Mingxuan's strength would be even greater. At that time, Gu Sang would have almost no hope of defeating or killing Li Mingxuan. This situation is really giving Gu Sang a headache." At this moment, Gu Sang was already regretting his decision. He regretted agreeing to go with Li Mingxuan to the Northwest Dynasty to participate in the Northwest City competition.
If the Gu family hadn't participated in the Northwest City competition, they wouldn't have been bullied by these people, and they could have continued to act arrogantly in Northwest City. But now it's different. Because the Gu family participated in the Northwest City competition, they are now being bullied by others. This is simply unbearable! Gu Sang felt increasingly regretful, regretting her initial choice.
"Hmph, Gu Sang, I'll let it slide for my father's sake. But if you dare offend me again, don't blame me for being impolite." Gu Yun sneered, his handsome face contorted with rage. He glared coldly at the doorway before turning and walking towards his room. He was furious, but he knew it was best not to provoke the Gu family now, nor was he willing to do so. Offending the Gu family for the sake of a mere family like Gu Yun would bring him no benefit.
His primary goal now is to break through to the seventh-level martial artist realm as soon as possible, then participate in the competition in Northwest City, kill Li Mingxuan, and seize the treasure in Li Mingxuan's hands. In that case, he will be able to receive a great reward from the Northwest King, and then he, Gu Yun, will be able to rise to prominence.
"Li Mingxuan, when I, Gu Yun, become the city lord of Northwest City, your life will become increasingly difficult. You have been bullying me all along. When I become the city lord of Northwest City, I will definitely make you pay the price." Gu Yun's eyes flashed with a venomous look as he muttered to himself. Then, he walked out of the room and headed towards his courtyard.
"Heh heh, it all seems to be fate's arrangement, doesn't it?" A strange smile crept onto Gu Yun's lips as he thought to himself, "Gu Sang, just wait obediently for my punishment. Once I become the city lord of Northwest City, I will definitely torture you properly. Hmph, let you dare offend me! Hmph, I'll let you know the consequences of angering me. I will make you wish you were dead. Just you wait!"
Gu Yun had already made up his mind; he would definitely make Gu Sang pay.
......
"Huff... huff... huff... huff..."
At this moment, in a secluded corner of the Gu family mansion, in a dark passage, rapid breathing sounds emanated from the depths of the passage. The sounds were extremely jarring and eerie, and the breathing sounded like constant panting, which made it sound particularly strange.
