Chapter 1318 - Nalan Yan? That’s a Familiar Name I
Zong Yi did not care so much as he only knew that his beloved woman was bullied. He would not allow these people who had bullied Fei’er to set their feet on his territory.
“Father, this is our Divine Herbs Sect. Why should we let these people run amok here? They didn’t respect our Divine Herbs Sect, so why should we care about their pride? Remove them immediately!”
Zong Fu’s face darkened. He looked at Zong Yi, but in the end, he did not continue to stop him.
However, his gaze toward Gu Shi was not as fierce as it was before. “Gu Shi, we have been friends for many years. You wouldn’t be an enemy of my Divine Herbs Sect just for Fengyun Manor, would you?”
Gu Shi laughed. “So what if it’s the Divine Herbs Sect? I am a man with a clear conscience! I don’t care if you’re the Divine Herbs Sect or Ghost Herbs Sect, I’ll defend anyone that I want to protect today.”
Feng Ruqing did not utter a single word from beginning to end. A faint smile appeared on her beautiful face.
Jiu Ming was also indifferent. He stood beside Feng Ruqing and smiled evilly.
Since someone had stood up to defend this little girl, then he would not interfere… But if Gu Shi could not settle this thing, he would protect this girl till the end.
But… It seemed like this girl had become so strong that she no longer needed protection from others.
Suddenly, the scene of their first encounter came up in Jiu Ming’s mind.
At that time, Feng Ruqing was still a big fatty, and she was so weak. But in just three years, she had already grown to such an extent…
“Gu Shi!”
Zong Fu did not expect Gu Shi to protect Feng Ruqing at such a time. He was so furious as he had already given Gu Shi a chance to step down, but Gu Shi was so stubborn.
‘So, don’t blame me for embarrassing you here’.
Zong Fu looked at the people of Deities Gate on the sidelines.
If he wanted to make a move against Tian Shen Manor, he must pull the people from Deities Gate to his side so that Deities Gate would not only sit back and reap the benefits from their conflict!
Gu Shi remained calm. He did not feel threatened by Zong Fu’s words.
It was as if in his eyes, Zong Fu who was standing in front of him was only a joke.
“Hehe…” Jiu Yue stood up and smiled coldly. “It seems that Tian Shen Manor is going to fight us to defend a little girl. Could it be that you’re also bewitched by this girl and want to find a stepmother for your daughter?”
With his words, he had not only humiliated Feng Ruqing, but also Gu Shi.
Gu Shi’s wife died a long time ago, and he had not married again since then. Besides her daughter, he had never had any contact with other women, so now that he was defending Feng Ruqing to this extent… Did it mean to find a stepmother for Gu Yiyi?
“Master Gu…” Before Gu Shi could continue speaking, Nalan Yan waved her sleeves, smiled, and stepped forward. “This matter is related to our Fengyun Manor. I don’t want to bother Master Gu.”
Gu Shi smiled calmly. “My daughter likes Little Xiao Qing, and I’ve treated Little Xiao Qing as my daughter. I don’t feel this to be troublesome.”
Gu Shi emphasized that he was protecting Feng Ruqing only because Gu Yiyi liked her.
It had also indirectly proved that Feng Ruqing was innocent.
Jiu Yue became more and more embarrassed. ‘It seems like Gu Shi is confused. Even at a time like this, he still wants to defend that girl.’
