“Humph!”
The man glared at Xunfeng ferociously. “You are in luck today that our Young Master doesn’t want to find any trouble with you. If this happens again, you better watch out for your head!”
Then, he leaped onto his storm wolf mount and galloped away, leaving a trail of dust behind.
“Left Protector, this…”
Observing the attitude of these people, the person beside Xunfeng looked at him with a query in his eyes. “Are we going to let them off just like that?”
His voice managed to pull Xunfeng back to the present. When he was just about to reply, a ‘whoosh’ sound could be heard suddenly and a streak of silvery white light could be seen across the sky. At once, a snowy white wolf appeared in front of them.
The wolf was very elegant and beautiful, its snowy white fur was sleek and glossy. The pair of eyes that were full of vivacity were looking at them curiously.
However, it didn’t matter how beautiful this wolf actually was. As it was a spiritual beast from the wolf clan, it must have a powerful attack!
“Be careful, Left Protector!”
Everyone was frantic with fear, pulling out their weapons immediately as they watched out for the wolf.
Right at this moment, nobody noticed that Xunfeng’s eyes were filled with excitement.
“All of you! Lower your weapons now!” He yelled out and then shifted his gaze to the snow wolf. Unable to contain his excitement, he said, “You are here, Heavenly Wolf! Does this mean that Master is here too?”
Perhaps the rest of the people still do not know but a year before, when Master had reached the Martial General level, he saw this exact wolf leaving his Master’s room with his own eyes.
At first, he thought that the wolf was going to harm the Master but she had told him that this snow wolf was her newly acquired contracted spiritual beast!
In the mainland, human beings and spiritual beasts could have a contractual relationship and fight in a battle side by side. However, there was one condition, the condition was to first obtain consent from the beast in the beginning. If a beast was not willing, then no contract could be made.
However, spiritual beasts had always been spirited and obstinate. There was not many of them who would willingly obey and submit. This was exactly the reason why there were not many people who had a contracted spiritual beast.
“Come back, Baobao.”
At this moment, a familiar voice could be heard coming from the back. In a flash, the snow wolf could be seen running at full speed towards the source of the voice, its little head rubbing against the young lady’s thighs in a seemingly spoilt manner, begging to be stroked.
Everyone’s gaze was directed towards the direction that the wolf ran off to. The moment the sight of the young girl who was standing in the cool breeze registered in their mind, their eyes lit up automatically.
“Master!”
Why was their Master here? And why was she so close to that wolf?
“You are all back?” Gu Ruoyun smiled as she walked towards the group of people. “Still, why are you all stopping here for?”
“Master.” After a moment of pondering, Xunfeng lifted his head to look at Gu Ruoyun. “We just ran into Gu Xianglin a while ago and there was a small dispute. On top of that, he has become the Young Master of the Gentle Breeze Faction as well.”
Gu Xianglin?
The long and slender fingers of the young girl stroked the sleek fur of the snow wolf gently. After a moment of silence, she said. “There seem to be two Martial King level cultivators in the Gentle Breeze Faction and both of them are at the low-level of the Martial King stage. However, even if he had become the Young Master of the Gentle Breeze Faction, there is nothing much that he can do to change anything. By the way, Xunfeng, I need you to carry out another task for me”
Lowering her head, she whispered her instructions into Xunfeng’s ear. Once she had finished, Xunfeng looked at the delicate features of the young lady in great astonishment. Holding both of his fists together as a salutation, he replied, “Yes, Master.”
…
At the Gu family home.
When they heard the news of Gu Xianglin’s return, everyone came out to welcome him. Particularly Second Madam Gu who was extremely proud of him. Now that her own son was back, who would dare to mistreat her anymore? Especially that little b*tch Gu Ruoyun! So what if she had Elder Yu as her support? Eventually, she would come begging for forgiveness anyway!
When that time came, she would force the b*tch to insult her own mother! There would be consequences if that b*tch refuses her.
As she imagined this, Second Madam Gu’s face was filled with arrogance and haughtiness, as though everyone had to submit their allegiance to her.
