Chapter 1660: Chapter 1660: No One But the Revered Master Can Stir Trouble
âKeep your people in check. If thereâs a next time, death!â Su Tang coldly warned Brother Zheng and the others.
He couldnât understand why he had ever thought to bring these people along in the first place. This⊠it seemed it wasnât his own idea but King Qianâs. Could it be just for the sake of entertainment along the journey?
âUnderstood.â
Brother Zheng replied, glancing briefly at Gu Qingyu, who was messed up from the fall.
Not a single person stepped forward to help Gu Qingyu up as she rolled on the ground. In their eyes lay nothing but disdain and revulsion towards her.
It was already a favor from Qian Jiyun that they were able to come to the Zhedu Sea Area, yet they still had to deal with this. They truly didnât want to converse with Gu Qingyu anymore.
âBrother Zheng, the meat is ready. Come and eat,â said the other brothers who were roasting meat, without giving Gu Qingyu a glance, beckoning to Brother Zheng and company.
âComing.â
Xuanyuan Zimo responded, pulling Brother Zheng away, without any intention of helping Gu Qingyu up or taking her with them.
âYou, youâŠâ
Gu Qingyu watched them leave with wide eyes, fuming inside.
She bit her lip, covered her wounded hand, and struggled up from the ground. She staggered after Brother Zheng and his group towards the fire. Halfway there, she turned to look at An Jiuyue and Qian Jiyun, grinding her teeth in secret.
Brother Zheng, walking ahead, sensed the womanâs gaze from behind and swiftly turned around. He reached out and grabbed Gu Qingyuâs uninjured hand, pulling her forward.
âSpeak nonsense again, and not even the Great Elder will be able to save you!â he lowered his voice and warned in Gu Qingyuâs ear.
âIâŠâ
âFrom now on, you stay by my side. Do not leave. If you go over to them againâŠâ Brother Zheng didnât feel like listening to whatever she had to say, his cold eyes flickering darkly.
âIâll personally report to the Revered Master about what youâve done recently. The people from the Xiang Dynasty arenât so easily offended. Even the Revered Master wouldnât provoke them lightly.â
âYouâŠâ
Gu Qingyu opened her mouth, but all the curses she wanted to hurl had to be swallowed down.
She could order everyone around, but she dared not do so with Brother Zheng. He was likely to inherit the mantle from the Revered Master, so in the Sect, no one besides the Revered Master could afford to provoke him.
âDid you hear me?â
Seeing that Gu Qingyu was silent, he raised his voice and asked.
âI heard you.â
Gu Qingyu closed her eyes and responded.
Itâs just one woman. Whatâs so hard about offending her? Couldnât Brother Zheng see? Even the guards have their objections to An Jiuyue, donât they?
One day, she will settle this score.
âŠ
âIt seems like bringing them along was a mistake,â sighed An Jiuyue, supporting her chin with one hand as she observed Brother Zhengâs group.
âI donât understand why we brought them with us. An Jiuyue, what were you thinking at the time?â Zhan Beiye had already taken a seat next to her, propping his forehead and asking her.
âI thought since theyâve been roaming the Jianghu all year round, they might be more familiar with the Zhedu Sea Area, who knewâŠâ An Jiuyue shook her head.
Who knew that besides causing them trouble, these people would be good for nothing else.
Oh, they did collect quite a few herbs along the way, but she didnât care for those herbs.
âJust donât let them on the boat when we go back,â Qian Jiyun said softly.
